Apple maintains a "net cash neutral" balance sheet policy and returns substantially all free cash flow to shareholders through buybacks and dividends. Apple's capital-light model keeps capex well below peers: it designs its own silicon (A-series, M-series chips) but outsources manufacturing to foundries led by TSMC, rather than operating its own wafer fabrication facilities. This fabless-designer approach produces substantially lower capex intensity than vertically integrated chipmakers or device manufacturers with proprietary factories.
