Investing.com - Citizens JMP analyst reiterated a Market Outperform rating on Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN), a $2.37 trillion market cap company and prominent player in the Broadline Retail industry, with a price target of $250.00 on Monday.
The research firm's decision follows a Consulterce study examining vendor perspectives on Amazon's growth and margin trends in 2025. The company has shown solid performance with 10.08% revenue growth over the last twelve months, with its next earnings report scheduled for July 31.
According to the study, 43% of vendors reported that Amazon is growing faster than the channel, while 31% described growth as in line with the channel.
These figures represent a shift from last year's study, which showed 53% of vendors reporting faster-than-channel growth and 26% reporting in-line growth, suggesting Amazon's share gains have slowed in 2025.
The study also revealed that 49% of vendors described margins as decreasing following trade negotiations with Amazon, while 40% reported no change in margins. The company currently trades at a P/E ratio of 35.56, reflecting market expectations for future growth.
In other recent news, Amazon.com is poised for a strong second quarter in 2025, as Truist Securities raises its revenue and operating income estimates above consensus levels. Truist attributes this positive outlook to a resilient North American consumer base and favorable foreign exchange conditions, maintaining a Buy rating with a new price target of $250. Similarly, Jefferies has raised its price target for Amazon to $255, citing shopper resilience and the upcoming expanded Prime Day event as potential drivers for incremental Prime sign-ups. Bernstein has also increased its price target to $235, highlighting growth in Amazon Web Services (AWS) despite some supply constraints. However, AWS faces challenges as it loses a key executive, Vasi Philomin, amid heightened competition for AI talent. In a strategic move, Amazon has invested significantly in AI, including $8 billion in startup Anthropic, integrating its Claude software into Amazon products. Meanwhile, Amazon's Ring has introduced a Smart Video Search AI feature, allowing users to find specific moments in their video history using text queries. This feature is set to launch officially in November 2024 as part of a new subscription service.
