MW Amazon beats expectations on domestic e-commerce sales, AWS; stock jumps
4:20 PM ET 8/3/23 | MarketWatch
By Jon Swartz
Amazon.com Inc. assuaged investors' fears with strong e-commerce and cloud sales, propelling its shares more than 6% higher in after-hours trading Thursday.
Amazon (AMZN)reported that second-quarter revenue expanded to $134.4 Billion from $121.2 billion in the same quarter last year.
Profit was $6.7 billion, or 65 cents a share, improving from a loss of $2 billion, or 20 cents a share, a year ago.
Analysts on average expected Amazon to report earnings of 35 cents a share on revenue of $131.5 billion, according to FactSet.
Equally important, operating income increased to $7.7 billion in the second quarter, compared with $3.3 billion in the same quarter last year.
"We continued lowering our cost to serve in our fulfillment network, while also providing Prime customers with the fastest delivery speeds we've ever recorded. Our AWS growth stabilized as customers started shifting from cost optimization to new workload deployment," Amazon Chief Executive Andy Jassy said in a statement announcing the results.

In the days leading up to the quarterly earnings report, analysts were keenly focused on the performance of Amazon's online shopping business and whether Amazon Web Services' growth reignited as the market leader. Last week, Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)said it expected revenue growth from Azure and other cloud services to continue cooling in the current quarter. Meanwhile, Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOGL)(GOOGL) Google Cloud revenue grew 28%, topping Wall Street estimates.

AWS sales improved 12% to $22.1 billion, from $19.7 billion a year ago. Analysts polled by FactSet had expected $21.7 billion.
In Thursday's earnings report, Amazon reported a profit in its domestic e-commerce business of $3.2 billion on sales of $82.55 billion, while analysts on average were expecting operating profit of $1.5 billion on sales of $79.8 billion. Overseas operations suffered an operating loss of $895 million but rang up sales of $29.7 billion, while analysts on average were projecting a loss of $1.2 billion on sales of $29.7 billion.
Amazon's advertising business racked up sales of $10.7 billion, up from $8.8 billion a year ago. Analysts had predicted $10.36 billion. This performance echoed an uptick in digital advertising for tech behemoths like Amazon, Alphabet and Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc. (META).

For the third quarter, Amazon executives guided for sales of $138 billion to $143 billion. Analysts on average were projecting sales of $138.4 billion.
Amazon's stock rose 6% in extended trading Thursday after inching up 0.6% to $128.91 during Thursday's regular trading session.
For the year, Amazon shares have advanced 53% while the broader S&P 500 index SPX is up 17%.
Amazon's results come amid mounting speculation that it may soon become the target of regulatory actions. The Federal Trade Commission is expected to soon file an antitrust suit against Amazon focusing on its online marketplace, according to a recent Bloomberg report.

Netflix Fourth-Quarter Revenue, Membership Growth Beat Views
5:11 PM ET 1/23/24 | MT Newswires
-- Netflix (NFLX) fourth-quarter revenue exceeded Wall Street's estimates amid stronger-than-anticipated membership growth, while the streaming giant said late Tuesday that its entering 2024 with "good momentum."
Revenue increased 12.5% year over year to $8.83 billion, topping the consensus on Capital IQ for $8.71 billion. Netflix said its global paid net additions totaled 13.1 million in the fourth quarter, higher than the consensus on Visible Alpha for an 8.8 million increase.
Netflix said in a letter to shareholders that revenue was buoyed by its password-sharing crackdown, price changes and a strong content slate. The company's stock was gaining 8.8% in after-hours trade.
Per-share earnings surged to $2.11 from $0.12 a year earlier, but came in below the Street's $2.22 view.
The company said it expects double-digit revenue growth this year on a currency neutral basis, driven by membership expansion and improvement in average revenue per membership "as we adjust prices." It increased the 2024 operating margin forecast to 24% from a prior range of 22% to 23%.
"We enter 2024 with good momentum," according to the company. "We'll also continue to invest in and build our ads business; we expect strong growth in 2024 but off a small base so it's not yet a primary driver of our overall revenue growth."
Netflix projects first-quarter revenue rising 13% year over year to $9.24 billion, just shy of analysts' $9.26 billion estimate. Netflix projects net subscriber additions to be down sequentially, reflecting seasonality and "some likely pull forward." Net adds are expected to be higher than last year's 1.8 million tally.
Many rivals have cut down on content spend, but Netflix continues to invest in a larger slate, according to the letter. "Looking ahead, despite last year's strikes pushing back the launch of some titles, we have a big, bold slate for 2024," the company said.
"As our competitors adjust to these changes, it's logical to expect further consolidation, particularly among companies with large and declining linear networks," the company said. "We're not interested in acquiring linear assets. Nor do we believe that further (merger and acquisition) among traditional entertainment companies will materially change the competitive environment given all the consolidation that has already happened over the last decade."

*Tesla Shares Gain 8.6% After Updating New Lineup, Overcoming Lackluster 1Q Results
5:30 PM ET 4/23/24 | Dow Jones
By Ben Glickman
Shares of Tesla gained in late trading Tuesday after the electric vehicle maker's earnings missed expectations but the company hinted at progress on its robotaxi initiative and its future lineup.
The stock was up 8.6% to $157.10 in after-hours trading, following a 1.9% rise in the regular session. Shares are down about 42% since the start of the year.
The company said it had updated its future vehicle line-up such that it could launch new models ahead prior expectations. Tesla previously said it would start production on new models in the second half of 2025.
Tesla said the new vehicles would include more affordable models and would use parts of the company's current platform.
The company also hinted at progress on its long-awaited robotaxi product, a model without a steering wheel or pedals. Chief Executive Elon Musk said earlier this month on social media that the company would unveil the robotaxi Aug. 8.
The company also said in its earnings deck that it was working on ride-hailing functionality that would be available in the future. Musk's announcement of the robotaxi launch in early April also sent shares higher in late trading.
Commentary on its new models seemed to overshadow a set of results that missed expectations.
Profit fell 55% from the prior-year period, falling short of estimates of analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue was down 9% to $21.3 billion, also missing forecasts.
“I really try to work as hard as possible to, you know, stay on the edge of sanity, basically,” he said. “Because Tesla’s getting to the point where… every high-quality minute of thinking [has] a million dollar impact.”
