Beijing has banned state employees from using Apple&#8217;s iPhones and other foreign-branded devices at work, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Although the Chinese government has restricted certain officials from iPhone usage in years past, the order has been broadened to include a greater number of workers, demonstrating a more pronounced effort to uphold such regulations. It&#8217;s unclear, however, how any new rules will be applied among government workers. Apple did not immediately respond to CNBC&#8217;s request for comment Wednesday. The news parallels an ongoing U.S. crackdown on Chinese technologies. A growing number of states have moved to ban Chinese social media app TikTok on government devices. And Chinese smartphone maker Huawei has been the target of U.S. sanctions since 2019 amid allegations of spying for Beijing. Huawei, meanwhile, launched a new smartphone last week, with an initial batch quickly selling out online. AAPL YTD mountain Apple (AAPL) year-to-date performance Beijing&#8217;s new rules, as reported by the Journal, come weeks before Apple&#8217;s highly-anticipated launch event for the nascent iPhone 15 on Sept. 12. China accounts for about 40 million to 50 million iPhone units for Apple, according to Bank of America. The firm estimated Wednesday that the reported new Chinese ban could result in a 5 million to 10 million-unit headwind for Apple. &#8220;Additionally, if iPhones are banned from being carried into official workplaces&#8230; the impact could be higher given the high propensity of Chinese consumers to own and carry multiple phones,&#8221; Bank of America analysts predicted in response to the Journal story. Bottom line While the reported Chinese ban on iPhone usage for government workers, coupled with a resurgent Huawei, could undermine Apple&#8217;s standing in China, we expect the impact to be limited. Apple \u2014 which relies on Chinese consumers for about 19% of total sales \u2014 should remain a premium brand in China because of its prices, product quality and closed ecosystem. Moreover, any sales slump due to a downturn in China would likely be buffeted by Apple&#8217;s ongoing expansion into emerging markets like India \u2014 a pivot that&#8217;s been accelerated by worsening U.S.-China tensions.
