Amazon concluded 2025 as an "AI-first infrastructure company," driven by a resurgence in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and aggressive generative AI integration, according to multiple year-end analyses published on December 26.
The company posted strong Q3 revenue of $180.2 billion, up 13% year-over-year, and net income of $21.2 billion. This strategic pivot and robust financial performance propelled the stock to a new all-time high in early November 2025, despite ongoing regulatory challenges and year-end volatility.
