Operating income was $676 million and net income was $448 million. Its operating margin fell to 6.3%, and earnings per share missed analysts’ estimate.

Global impact / market context

Revenue growth points to more business, but the lower operating margin means less revenue remained after operating costs. The company cited higher fulfillment, free-shipping, and marketing spending. Investors may weigh strong growth against pressure on profits.
