Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) has been one of the stock market's biggest success stories ever.
Amazon's 1Q25 results show improved operating margins Y/Y, with North America at 6.3% and international at 3%. Valuation concerns include increased capex and slowing non-AWS growth, but potential operating margins of 8% for non-AWS segments suggest strong future earnings. With a market cap below the valuation range, Amazon stock is a buy for long-term investors holding for at least three years.
AMZN posts strong Q1 results, but issues mixed Q2 outlook. With premium valuation and tariff concerns, you can hold or wait for pullbacks if looking to buy.
Amazon's Q1 2025 earnings report showed mixed results, with revenue and profit exceeding expectations but a significant 48% year-over-year decline in free cash flow. Analysts project Amazon's EPS to grow at a 14.3% CAGR through FY 2030. But such a projection faces uncertainties, such as tariff rate changes, AWS growth deacceleration, etc.
AMZN remains cheap near 10Y P/E lows, as the worst of the tariff war headwinds are likely priced in through the management's softer FQ2'25 guidance. We believe that the company remains well positioned to weather the near-term uncertainties, thanks to its growing AWS/ Prime subscription/ advertising opportunities. These reasons are also why we believe that AMZN's intensified capex has been directly top/ bottom-line accretive, as observed in the leading cloud market share and growing multi-year RPOs.

Amazon's Q1 2025 results show strong revenue and profitability growth, positioning it as a deep value play with significant future earnings potential.

Risks include potential trade tariffs, rising interest rates, and competition from Alphabet and Microsoft in cloud services.
