Amazon (AMZN) Financials

Seattle, WA · Founded 1994 · 1,576,000 employees

Last Updated: 2025-11-20

Amazon generated $716.9B in revenue for fiscal year 2025, a +12.4% year-over-year change. Gross margin was 50.3%. Net income reached $77.7B.

Amazon is in an 'all-in' cycle where nearly all operating cash is being consumed by capex and AI commitments. While the AWS backlog is massive, investors should ignore headline EPS—which is inflated by non-cash investment marks—and focus on when this unprecedented spending cycle will finally translate into real free cash flow. Q1 2026 looks strong on headline metrics but contains major caveats. Revenue grew 17% YoY to $181.5B and AWS grew 28% YoY, producing operating income of $23.9B. However, a large portion of the reported net income and EPS improvement was driven by non-operating, Level 3 fair value adjustments—not cash business performance: other income increased to $15.6B in Q1 2026 (vs $2.7B a year ago), largely from Anthropic and related private-equity marks.
