Read this, Arlen. Over and over and over.

"For Apple-designed hardware like ARM chips"


That is from YOUR source below.

It is literally saying that Apple designs the ARM chips it uses.

Are Apple's chips BASED on ARM? Yes. They use the ARM A-R-C-H-T-E-C-T-U-R-E.


'For several years, Apple has been steadily designing more and more of 
the chips powering its iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watches. This 
creates a better user experience and helps trump rivals. Recently the 
company got a fresh incentive to go all-in on silicon: revelations that 
microprocessors with components designed by Intel Corp., Arm Holdings 
Plc and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. are vulnerable to hacking.

Steve Jobs long believed Apple should own the technologies inside its 
products rather than rely on mashups of components from other chip 
makers, including Samsung, Intel and Imagination Technologies. In 2008, 
the company made a small but significant step in that direction by 
acquiring boutique chip maker P.A. Semi. Two years later, Jobs unveiled 
the iPad. The world focused on the tablet’s giant touchscreen, 
book-reading prowess and creativity apps. But the most ground-breaking 
technology was hidden away inside: the A4, Apple’s first processor 
designed in-house.'
