Open the filing on EDGARAMAZON.COM ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
SEATTLE - (BUSINESS WIRE) April 29, 2026 - Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
- Net sales increased 17% to $181.5 billion in the first quarter, compared with $155.7 billion in first quarter 2025. Excluding the $2.9 billion favorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the quarter, net sales increased 15% compared with first quarter 2025.
- North America segment sales increased 12% year-over-year to $104.1 billion.
- International segment sales increased 19% year-over-year to $39.8 billion, or increased 11% excluding changes in foreign exchange rates.
- AWS segment sales increased 28% year-over-year to $37.6 billion.
- Operating income increased to $23.9 billion in the first quarter, compared with $18.4 billion in first quarter 2025.
- North America segment operating income was $8.3 billion, compared with $5.8 billion in first quarter 2025.
- International segment operating income was $1.4 billion, compared with $1.0 billion in first quarter 2025.
- AWS segment operating income was $14.2 billion, compared with $11.5 billion in first quarter 2025.
- Net income increased to $30.3 billion in the first quarter, or $2.78 per diluted share, compared with $17.1 billion, or $1.59 per diluted share, in first quarter 2025.
- First quarter 2026 net income includes pre-tax gains of $16.8 billion included in non-operating income from our investments in Anthropic.

- Free cash flow decreased to $1.2 billion for the trailing twelve months, driven primarily by a year-over-year increase of $59.3 billion in purchases of property and equipment, net of proceeds from sales and incentives.

“We’re making customers’ lives easier and better every day across all our businesses, and their response is driving significant growth,” said Andy Jassy, President and CEO, Amazon. “AWS is growing 28% (our fastest growth in 15 quarters) on a very large base, our chips business topped a $20 billion revenue run rate (growing triple digits year-over-year), Advertising grew to over $70 billion in TTM revenue, and unit growth in our Stores reached 15% (the highest since the tail end of covid lockdowns). We also hit exciting milestones with delivery speed (more than 1 billion items same-day or overnight in 2026 and counting), Project Hail Mary (nearly $615 million at the box office to date and the second most successful non-sequel, non-franchise opening of recent memory), and Amazon Leo continues to resonate with prospective customers, with Delta Airlines the latest to sign on. We’re in the middle of some of the biggest inflections of our lifetime, we’re well positioned to lead, and I’m very optimistic about what’s ahead for our customers and Amazon.”
Some other highlights since the company’s last earnings announcement include that Amazon:

Financial Guidance
The following forward-looking statements reflect Amazon.com’s expectations as of April 29, 2026, and are subject to substantial uncertainty. Our results are inherently unpredictable and may be materially affected by many factors, such as fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and energy prices, changes in global economic and geopolitical conditions, tariff and trade policies, resource and supply volatility, including for memory chips, and customer demand and spending (including the impact of recessionary fears), inflation, interest rates, regional labor market constraints, world events, the rate of growth of the internet, online commerce, cloud services, and new and emerging technologies, and the various factors detailed below.
Second Quarter 2026 Guidance
- Net sales are expected to be between $194.0 billion and $199.0 billion, or to grow between 16% and 19% compared with second quarter 2025. This guidance anticipates an unfavorable impact of approximately 10 basis points from foreign exchange rates.
- Operating income is expected to be between $20.0 billion and $24.0 billion, compared with $19.2 billion in second quarter 2025.
- This guidance assumes that Prime Day occurs in second quarter 2026.
- This guidance assumes, among other things, that no additional business acquisitions, restructurings, or legal settlements are concluded.

Forward-Looking Statements
Forward-looking statements notice
These forward-looking statements are inherently difficult to predict. Actual results and outcomes could differ materially for a variety of reasons, including, in addition to the factors discussed above, the amount that Amazon.com invests in new business opportunities and the timing of those investments, the mix of products and services sold to customers, the mix of net sales derived from products as compared with services, the extent to which we owe income or other taxes, competition, management of growth, potential fluctuations in operating results, international growth and expansion, the outcomes of claims, litigation, government investigations, and other proceedings, fulfillment, sortation, delivery, and data center optimization, risks of inventory management, variability in demand, the degree to which the Company enters into, maintains, and develops commercial agreements, proposed and completed acquisitions and strategic transactions, payments risks, and risks of fulfillment throughput and productivity. Other risks and uncertainties include, among others, risks related to new products, services, and technologies, security incidents, system interruptions, government regulation and taxation, and fraud. In addition, global economic and geopolitical conditions and additional or unforeseen circumstances, developments, or events may give rise to or amplify many of these risks. More information about factors that potentially could affect Amazon.com’s financial results is included in Amazon.com’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings.
