After completing checks with key component suppliers, Credit Suisse First Boston today raised its estimates on Apple, saying that “both iPod and Mac demand are tracking above normal seasonal calendar first-quarter patterns.” CSFB raised the quarterly shipping estimate on the Mac mini to 150,000 units from 100,000, and expects total Mac units shipping in the second quarter to rise 35% year-over-year (15% excluding the Mac mini), above the firm’s PC industry growth estimate of 10%. CSFB raised the second quarter 2005 estimate on Apple to earnings of 25 cents per share on revenue of $3.2 billion, up from earnings of 20 cents on revenue of $2.9 billion.
