Amazon has reported record quarterly profits helped by a rise in online sales and demand for its cloud services.
Profits hit a record $2.53bn (£1.9bn) in the three months to the end of June – about 12 times more than it made during the same period last year.
Sales rose by 39% to $52.89bn, slightly less than analysts had been forecasting.
Amazon’s shares jumped more than 3% in after-hours trade.
“It was a strong quarter,” said chief financial officer Brian Olsavsky. “What I attribute it to is continued strength in some of our most profitable areas.”
