Values are as tagged by the issuer in XBRL. Revenue for banks and insurers is net of interest expense where that is the reported line. Fiscal years that do not follow the calendar are shown by their period-end date. No price, market cap, or valuation multiple is shown because Yield Theory does not republish unlicensed market data.

Diluted EPS is the earnings figure behind the price-to-earnings ratio; the P/E multiple compression calculator shows how a change in that multiple moves a share price. Shares outstanding multiplied by the share price gives market capitalization.

What investors should watch in AMZN

For Amazon.com, Inc., the most important recurring operating and market variables are:

  • ◆AWS revenue growth and the pace of AI-related infrastructure spending
  • ◆Third-party seller services, advertising, and Prime subscription fees within North America and International
  • ◆Fulfillment network and data-center utilization and cost per unit
  • ◆Cash capital expenditures relative to operating cash flow
  • ◆Tariff policy, inventory risk, and reliance on China-based sellers and suppliers

Key questions for the AMZN thesis

Each question starts with what the filings show, then why it matters. None of these is a rating or a forecast.

How much of Amazon is now AWS and advertising?

The 10-K reports AWS net sales of $128.7 billion in 2025 within total net sales of $716.9 billion, and Item 1 lists advertising, third-party seller fees, and Prime as the main service revenue lines. Compare segment operating income in Note 10 with segment sales to see how much consolidated profit the cloud business carries versus retail.

Is the capital-spending step-up paying for itself?

Cash capital expenditures rose from $77.7 billion in 2024 to $128.3 billion in 2025, most of it for technology infrastructure supporting AWS, and free cash flow fell to $11.2 billion. Track the liquidity discussion in Item 7 for whether operating cash flow of $139.5 billion keeps pace with the build-out.

How exposed is the retail business to trade policy and sellers?

Item 1A flags tariff policy changes as an inventory-risk factor and notes that China-based sellers and suppliers contribute materially to seller-services and advertising revenue. Watch International, which was 23% of revenue, and the settlements and tax charges recorded in 2025 for signs of regulatory friction.

What does net income actually reflect?

Audited 2025 net income was $77.7 billion, or $7.17 per diluted share, but the year included a $2.5 billion FTC settlement charge and further Q4 settlement, severance, and impairment charges. Adjust for these one-offs and for depreciation changes before comparing margins across years.

Does AMZN's reported profit turn into cash?

Operating cash flow was $139.5B, 1.80 times net income of $77.7B, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Cash from operations exceeded reported earnings. Non-cash charges such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation usually explain the gap; the cash-flow statement shows which.

Form 10-K filed February 6, 2026

How much of AMZN's revenue is left as profit?

Net income was 10.8% of revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, based on revenue and net income reported for the same period.

Net margin reflects the business model as much as execution, so compare it with companies in the same SEC industry and read the income statement for one-time items before treating it as a run rate.
