↑ 1%Jeff Bezos remains Amazon's largest individual shareholder, owning 950.4 million shares as of February, representing 8.8% of outstanding shares. His stake is valued at approximately $245.7 billion, comprising the majority of his estimated $280 billion net worth. Whilst Bezos no longer serves as CEO, he retains the role of executive chair. Vanguard Group and BlackRock are the next-largest shareholders, holding 7.2% and 5.9% respectively. Amazon shares have gained 12% year to date through 4 September, slightly trailing the S&P 500's 13.7% return. The company's Amazon Web Services division posted 36.8% year-over-year sales growth in the second quarter, reaching $42.2 billion and accounting for 60.5% of operating income.
Amazon reported revenues of $200.6 billion for Q2, up 19.6% year on year and exceeding analysts' expectations by 2%. The company beat earnings per share estimates in what was characterised as a strong quarter overall. CEO Andy Jassy highlighted AWS growth of 36.7% year-over-year, marking the fastest growth in 18 quarters. The company's AI and Chips businesses each surpassed run rates of more than $25 billion. Amazon's share price has risen 9.7% since the earnings report, currently trading at $258.26. Across the online retail sector, the five tracked companies reported strong Q2 results.

AT&T is partnering with Amazon to offer satellite internet to business customers, combining Amazon Leo's low-Earth-orbit satellite services with AT&T's fibre and 5G networks. AT&T becomes the first major US telecommunications provider to integrate Amazon Leo satellite services with existing networks. Amazon has been testing Leo with enterprise customers since November 2025 and plans to launch commercially this year. Leo has already secured contracts across several industries, including a partnership with Delta Air Lines. Amazon reportedly has 392 satellites in space, with 315 in the correct operational orbit. This remains far behind SpaceX's Starlink, which has 11,124 working satellites. The partnership targets enterprise and public sector customers seeking more reliable connectivity.
Amazon announced a multigeneration partnership with Qualcomm to develop AI inference chips and optical networking technology capable of 1.6 terabits per second. The company's shares fell approximately 1.3% in early trading following the news. AWS generated $42.2 billion in second-quarter revenue, up 37%, with operating income reaching $16.6 billion. Amazon reported that both its chip franchise and broader AI business surpassed $25 billion in annual revenue run rates. Under the partnership, Qualcomm will help design Amazon hardware whilst using more AWS infrastructure and AI services for its own semiconductor development. AWS posted an operating margin of roughly 39.3%. The companies did not disclose pricing, purchase commitments, or a deployment timetable for the collaboration.
Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Alphabet and Oracle — collectively dubbed the "Hyper 5" — have spent $1.1 trillion on capital expenditures over the past five years to build AI infrastructure, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. Analyst estimates project another $5.3 trillion in spending through 2030. The investment surge is putting pressure on free cash flow. Amazon's free cash flow fell to negative $7.6 billion over the 12 months ended 30 June, from positive $18.2 billion a year earlier. Meta's second-quarter free cash flow dropped 91% to $784 million. S&P Global warns the key risk is companies transitioning from cash to debt-funded investment before returns validate the spending. However, the tech giants remain highly profitable, distinguishing this cycle from the dot-com boom.
