Amazon.com Inc. Chief Executive Jeff Bezos promised to spend all the additional profits his company made from a huge boost in sales related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but sales grew so fast that he ended up with record earnings instead.
Three months ago, Bezos said that he expected to spend billions in fresh operating profit that is flooding in as Americans sheltered-in-place due to the coronavirus purchase more goods online and businesses spend more on cloud computing to support workers stuck at home. “If you’re a shareowner in Amazon, you may want to take a seat, because we’re not thinking small,” Bezos said in May.
“This was another highly unusual quarter, and I couldn’t be more proud of and grateful to our employees around the globe,” Bezos said in Thursday’s announcement.
Amazon Web Services, the company’s cloud-computing arm, saw revenue jump to $10.8 billion from $8.38 billion, while analysts on average were expecting $11 billion. As usual, AWS was the biggest profit driver for Amazon, delivering operating profit of $3.36 billion while Amazon reported overall operating income of $5.84 billion.
