on Thursday published its list of the “World’s Most Admired Companies” and as expected, Apple came in on top. “To say it was another big year for Apple would be a gross understatement,” the publication stated. “With the passing of Steve Jobs, questions swirled around the company’s future. But under new CEO Tim Cook’s guidance, Apple continues to prosper.” The Cupertino-based company is coming off its best quarter of all time, which boosted its market cap to over $500 billion, making it the most valuable company in the world. Rounding out the top-10 were Google, Amazon, Coca-Cola, IBM, FedEx, Berkshire Hathaway, Starbucks, Procter & Gamble and Southwest Airlines. Apple’s 2012 ranking marked the fifth consecutive year that the company has topped Fortune’s list.
