Amazon reported earnings of $1.89 per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, 5.5% below the forecast of $2.00. The company said the shortfall was $0.11 per share. Revenue for the quarter came to $201.9 billion, 2.1% below the forecast of $206.3 billion, a gap of $4.3 billion.
Revenue and earnings against forecast
Both measures came in under expectations. The earnings gap was the larger of the two in percentage terms. Revenue was $4.3 billion short of the forecast. The results were published in the company’s filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on 29 October 2026.
The figures are the company’s own reported numbers. The company’s fiscal year does not necessarily match the calendar year, so the quarter refers to Amazon’s own reporting period.
Market backdrop
In markets the same day, the Nasdaq Composite stood at 26,549.85 points at the close of 28 October 2026, up 0.27% from the previous close.
