Amazon reported its second quarter results for the year 2025, with sales increasing by 9% from the same period the previous year to $155.67 billion. Net income also rose to $17.127 billion.
Two key business segments of Amazon, which have shown high growth and attracted investor interest, have the following figures:
AWS saw a revenue increase of 17% to $29.267 billion, with operating profit of $11.547 billion in this segment alone. The advertising business generated $13.921 billion in revenue, marking an 18% increase.
During the earnings call, CEO Andy Jassy acknowledged that trade policies and import tax barriers were factors contributing to uncertainty for the upcoming quarter. However, he expressed confidence that sellers on Amazon, with their diverse offerings, would not pass on all of these tax costs to buyers. Despite these challenges, Amazon’s competitive edge in offering cost-effective products is expected to help the company navigate through this period similar to the COVID-19 era.
