Amazon’s financial results for the first quarter of 2025 showed growth in all core business areas. The net turnover of the US marketplace giant rose by nine percent to $ 155.7 billion compared to the previous year, with North America asserting $ 92.9 billion and international sales.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) recorded sales growth from 17 percent to a total of $ 29.3 billion. The operational result rose to $ 18.4 billion, while the net profit rose to $ 17.1 billion or $ 1.59 per watered share.
Although these numbers are strong, the Amazon share experienced a decline of over two percent in the post-excessive trade, which is due to the cautious forecast for the second quarter. The company predicted an operational result between $ 13 billion and $ 17.5 billion, which failed to expect the analyst expectations. In addition, AWS’s sales easily missed the estimates, which contributed to the investor.
In a telephone conference with analyst: Inside, Andy Jassy, President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) from Amazon went into the challenges that result from new US tariffs to Chinese imports. He explained that the demand had not slowed down, but the company is proactively controlling potential effects by encouraging sellers: encouraging to shift stocks to the USA at an early stage and maintaining the focus on low retail prices.
With a view to the future, Amazon forecasts net sales between 159 billion and $ 164 billion for the second quarter, which corresponds to growth between seven percent and eleven percent.
