Apple CEO Tim Cook states the company applies for refunds on duties paid under Trump tariffs, which the Supreme Court struck down 6-3 as unconstitutional under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Apple plans to reinvest recoveries into U.S. innovation and manufacturing, adding to its $600 billion commitment. Industry-wide refunds could total $166 billion.

Apple CEO Tim Cook stated during the fiscal Q2 2026 earnings call that the company is following 'the established processes' to apply for refunds on duties paid under tariffs Donald Trump announced last year. The Supreme Court recently struck down the measures in a 6–3 ruling, finding that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not grant the president authority to impose broad tariffs.

A few days ago, Donald Trump said he would 'remember' companies that choose not to apply for refunds while criticizing those that do. Businesses across industries now seek refunds on duties collected under that framework, which could total roughly $166 billion.

Cook did not disclose the expected recovery amount but confirmed Apple plans to reinvest any funds received back into U.S. innovation and advanced manufacturing. He described these as 'new investments and would be in addition to our prior commitments in the U.S.'
