📈 Amazon Q1 2025: Revenue Rises 9% to $156B, Net Income Jumps 64% to $17B

In Q1 2025, Amazon delivered a 8.6% year-over-year revenue increase to $155.7 billion and a 64.2% surge in net income to $17.1 billion ($1.59 per share), exceeding analyst forecasts. Growth was propelled by a 17% rise in AWS revenue to $29.3 billion and a 19% increase in advertising revenue to $13.9 billion. However, free cash flow fell 48% due to heavy AI and cloud infrastructure investments. Despite strong results, cautious Q2 guidance and potential U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports, affecting over 60% of e-commerce products, led to a dip in after-hours stock trading.
