Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said: “We had a strong third quarter as our cost to serve and speed of delivery in our Stores business took another step forward, our AWS growth continued to stabilise, our Advertising revenue grew robustly and overall operating income and free cash flow rose significantly.

“The benefits of moving from a single national fulfilment network in the US to eight distinct regions are exceeding our optimistic expectations and perhaps most importantly, putting us on pace to deliver the fastest delivery speeds for Prime customers in our 29-year history.”

In the fourth quarter of FY23, Amazon expects its net sales to grow from 7% to 12% or between $160.0bn and $167.0bn.
