Amazon reported Q2 of $0.98 on revenue of $143.31 billion, beating estimates of $0.84 on revenue of $142.65B.
Amazon Web Services, its cloud revenue segment, grew 17% to $25B, topping consensus estimates of $14.7% growth, with the division's annual revenue run rate now at a $100B.
"The combination of companies renewing their infrastructure modernization efforts and the appeal of AWS’s AI capabilities is reaccelerating AWS’s growth rate," the company said Tuesday.
North America segment sales increased 12% year-over-year to $86.3B.
Looking ahead, the company guided Q2 revenue slightly below than analyst expectations.
