These charts show how Tim Cook is doing after 5 years of running Apple (AAPL)

On August 24, 2011, Tim Cook took over from Steve Jobs as the permanent CEO of Apple. He's been in charge ever since.

So how's he doing after five years?

Apple's earnings report for the quarter that ended on June 30 beat Wall Street's expectations, sending the stock up about 7% after-hours. Apple is still the most valuable company in the world, and earns more profit in a quarter than most other tech companies do in a year.

But at the same time, Apple's revenue has started shrinking. Its most important product, the iPhone, is shrinking. All its other business lines, save one, are shrinking. And the company hasn't had a new hit product since Cook took over.

Let's go to the charts, provided by BI Intelligence:

First, let's take a look at the stock price since Cook took over. It's up about 98%. That's a little better than the S&P 500, which is up 93% in the same time period. But in the five or so years before he took over, Apple stock rose a historic 460%, doing way better than the S&P.

Also, Apple now pays a dividend. It did not before Cook took over. But Apple's cash hoard has also grown by about 3x since then, and now stands at over $230 billion.

Cook should also be commended for turning Apple into a company with a strong public conscience. He's made a huge commitment to turn Apple into a carbon-neutral company with actions like building massive solar plants, and has taken a public stance on social issues like gay rights. Steve Jobs never took those kinds of stands.
