Amazon’s operating cash flow increased 36%, to $115.9 billion for the trailing twelve months, while free cash flow for the trailing twelve months was $38.2 billion compared to $36.8 billion for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Purchases of propery and equipment were $27.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, up from $14.6 billion in the same quarter last year. Capital spending is expected to be north of $100 billion in 2025. Looking to the first quarter of 2025, Amazon’s net sales are expected to be between $151-$155.5 billion (below the consensus forecast of $158.3 billion), or to grow between 5%-9%, while operating income is expected to be between $14-$18 billion, compared with $15.3 billion in the first quarter of 2024. Cash and marketable securities at the end of the calendar year totaled $101.2 billion, while long-term debt was $52.6 billion.
