Summary

Amazon reported third-quarter 2026 net sales up 12% to $201.9 billion and operating income of $28.1 billion, a 13.9% operating margin it called its highest ever, while AWS net sales rose 39.3% to $46.0 billion. Net income fell to $20.7 billion ($1.89 per diluted share) from $21.2 billion a year earlier, which Amazon attributed primarily to $9.5 billion in pre-tax gains from its Anthropic investments included in the prior-year quarter.

Key points

  • North America segment sales rose 6% to $112.9 billion and International sales rose 5% to $43.1 billion; AWS operating income was $17.8 billion versus $11.4 billion a year earlier.
  • Trailing-twelve-month free cash flow was an outflow of $42.4 billion, driven by a $94.8 billion year-over-year increase in net purchases of property and equipment, primarily for artificial intelligence investments.
  • CEO Andy Jassy said AWS revenue growth is projected above 40% in both 2027 and 2028, and that Amazon may have two trillion-dollar revenue businesses within 5-10 years.
  • Amazon said it signed new AWS agreements with Meta, NVIDIA, OpenAI, Salesforce, Oracle, Qualcomm and others, and that Bedrock token volume grew nearly 17x year-over-year.
