Amazon's net sales rose 12% to $201.9 billion in its third quarter ended Sept. 30, the company said in an Oct. 29 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Profit fell despite the sales increase. Amazon reported net income of $20.7 billion, or $1.89 per diluted share, compared with $21.2 billion, or $1.95 per diluted share, in third quarter 2025.
Amazon attributed the decline primarily to investment gains that lifted the earlier period's results. Those included $9.5 billion in pretax gains from its investments in Anthropic.
Operating income reached $28.1 billion, compared with $17.4 billion a year earlier. The company's operating margin, the share of sales left after operating expenses, reached a record 13.9%.
Amazon Web Services sales increased 39% to $46 billion. Operating income at the cloud business reached $17.8 billion, compared with $11.4 billion in third quarter 2025.
