5 reasons why Amazon had record profits in the second quarter even after spending over $4 billion on COVID-related initiatives

The $5.2 billion in net profit, which doubled from last year, was all the more impressive because Amazon had previously warned it would spend all of the $4 billion it was projected to make in quarterly profits on COVID-related responses, including wage increases for warehouse workers and the development of an in-house testing lab.

Amazon cut its marketing spend by a third during the quarter to reduce the demand it was seeing, Olsavsky said. It also slowed its investments in its Studios business, delaying productions of some shows to protect the actors and filming crew amid COVID-19. In fact, Amazon's sales and marketing spend was roughly flat from last year at $4.3 billion, while its total operating expense of $30 billion grew just 29%, much slower than the 40% sales growth rate.
