AMZN Key Statistics
AMZN in plain English
- P/E ratio (31.7) — how many dollars you pay for each $1 of AMZN's yearly profit. That's a fairly normal range.
- ROE (24.29%) — how efficiently the company turns shareholders' money into profit. Above ~20% is considered strong.
- Profit margin (12.22%) — of every $1 in sales, this is what's left as profit after all costs.
- Dividend — AMZN doesn't pay a meaningful dividend; the return here comes from the share price, not cash payouts.
