75 / 100
Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) is currently trading at $254.98, below its 50-day moving average of $256.26 but above its 200-day moving average of $240.53, indicating a neutral short-term momentum.

However, recent earnings have shown a negative surprise, with EPS missing estimates in the last two reported quarters.

Market Outlook
Amazon's outlook is cautiously optimistic, with a median analyst price target of $326.00, implying a 27.9% upside from the current price of $254.98. The company is expected to continue its strong revenue growth trajectory, with forward estimates indicating double-digit increases in both the current and next quarters, and an overall 16.00% growth for the current year. Key upside catalysts include continued market share expansion in e-commerce and cloud computing, alongside potential improvements in profitability as the company optimizes its operations. However, the significant insider selling and recent earnings misses present downside risks that could pressure the stock if not addressed. The neutral RSI suggests a lack of strong momentum, indicating that the stock may consolidate or face resistance near its 50-day moving average.

Key Statistics

Market Cap 2.75T
P/E Ratio 20.79
EPS (TTM) 12.43
Dividend Yield 0.00%
52 Week High 287.20
52 Week Low 196.00
Amazon's valuation metrics, including a P/E of 20.79 and a price-to-sales ratio of 3.59, are currently in line with or slightly above the Consumer Cyclical sector averages, which stand at 20.8 and 1.9 respectively. The company's strong return on equity of 30.56% and strong revenue growth of 19.6% indicate efficient operations and market expansion capabilities, far exceeding sector averages for ROE (12.4%) and revenue growth (7.2%). Despite these strengths, the company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.46 is slightly higher than the sector average, though still manageable. The profit margin of 17.44% and operating margin of 13.69% demonstrate healthy profitability. The current valuation appears reasonable given the company's growth trajectory and market leadership, though recent earnings misses warrant close monitoring.

Earnings & Growth Analysis

Amazon's most recent earnings report for the quarter ending June 2026 showed an EPS of -$0.16, missing the estimate of -$0.14 by 14.29%, which coincided with a 2.5% price increase. The prior quarter, ending March 2026, also saw an EPS miss of 4.76% (-$0.14 actual vs. -$0.42 estimate), with the stock reacting positively with a 1.6% gain. While the company has experienced recent EPS misses, the forward revenue estimates suggest continued growth, with current quarter revenue projected to increase by 12.00% year-over-year and next year's revenue expected to grow by 14.00%. The current year's EPS estimate is $12.88, a significant increase from the prior year's $7.17.

Key Risks

Significant insider selling pressure is a key risk, with $6.2 billion in sales across 142 transactions, indicating a lack of confidence from management in the short term. Recent earnings misses, though met with positive price reactions, highlight potential near-term profitability challenges. Also, the stock's current trading position below its 50-day moving average suggests potential for short-term price weakness.
