AMZN stock analysis: one number for the whole business

Consensus tells you what everyone already believes. The model scores Amazon.com, Inc. on its factor families — the same systematic rank behind the Ticker Nerd portfolio.

Revisions (92): Analysts have, on balance, been raising their forecasts.

Accruals (22): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (0): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

The Ticker Nerd Read

The model is lukewarm where the Street is nearly unanimous.

As of 7 September 2026, our factor model ranks Amazon 48 of 100 against roughly 4,600 US stocks, the middle of the field. The strongest factors are Estimate Revisions (92), Quality (82) and Growth (82): analysts are raising forecasts, profitability trends are strong, and revenue is up 19.6% year over year with earnings up 244.9% (as of 6 September 2026). The drags are Value (28), Investment/Accruals (22) and Debt/Equity Issuance (26): the shares cost a lot relative to what the business earns, and the weakest factor, size (0.1 of 100), is simply that few tracked stocks are bigger.

The Street is more positive than the model: of the 61 analysts covering the stock, none rate it Sell, 15 rate it Strong Buy and 44 rate it Buy. Their median target of $325.50 (as of 6 September 2026) is above the close of $258.51 on 4 September 2026. Consensus current-year EPS is up 44% in 90 days to $12.49 (as of 3 September 2026), with 45 raises against one cut in the last month.

The deciding question is whether the spending turns into cash. Capital expenditure reached $43.2 billion in Q1 2026, free cash flow was minus $18.17 billion, and The Motley Fool cites about $220 billion of capex this year versus $132 billion in 2025.

Next-year consensus EPS of $10.48 already sits below this year's $12.49, so the estimate-raising streak must hold for the model's top factor to keep its support. The Q3 2026 report will test that streak and update the AWS story, reported at a 39% operating margin by The Motley Fool.

The 61 Wall Street analysts covering Amazon.com, Inc. have a median 12-month price target of $326, with estimates ranging from $230 to $405. These are third-party analyst estimates, not Ticker Nerd forecasts, and they are frequently wrong.

How does Ticker Nerd's model rank AMZN?

As at 9 Sept 2026, Amazon.com, Inc. ranks 48 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Revisions (92 of 100).

Will AMZN stock go up?

No one can know that. What the data says: the median 12-month target from 61 analysts implies +29.2% from the last close, and Ticker Nerd's factor model ranks Amazon.com, Inc. 48 out of 100 as at 9 Sept 2026. Analyst targets are third-party estimates and frequently wrong; none of this is personal advice.

What is the AMZN stock forecast for 2030?

No analyst covering Amazon.com, Inc. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for AMZN are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $230 to $405 over the next 12 months.

How has AMZN stock performed over the past year?

Amazon.com, Inc. returned +9.4% over the 12 months to 10 Sept 2026, with dividends reinvested. Past performance does not indicate future returns.

What does Amazon.com, Inc. do?

Amazon.com is a Seattle-based retailer and cloud company whose customers include consumers, sellers, developers, enterprises, content creators and advertisers. It runs online and physical stores, a third-party marketplace, advertising and subscription businesses, devices sold as Kindle, Fire TV, Echo, Ring, Blink and eero, and the AWS cloud platform.

What is the latest news on AMZN?

The most recent item we track (GeekWire, 10 Sept 2026): "Amazon expands its Quick AI assistant on mobile in challenge to Microsoft and Google". Amazon is adding the Activity Feed from its Quick desktop app to the AI assistant's iPhone and Android versions, consolidating email, Slack messages, calendar invites, and CRM updates into a single prioritized list. This expansion positions Quick on mobile in competition with Microsoft and Google's AI assistants.

Why does the Value factor rank Amazon low even though its trailing P/E is not extreme?

The Value factor sits at 28 of 100 as of 7 September 2026, and its weakest children are FCF/EV (13) and Sales/EV (10). Free cash flow was minus $18.17 billion in Q1 2026 against $43.2 billion of capital expenditure, so cash-based valuation measures look poor even while the trailing P/E of 20.8 is cheaper than 37% of US stocks.

Why is Amazon's forward P/E higher than its trailing P/E?

As of 6 September 2026 the trailing P/E is 20.8 and the forward P/E is 24.9. Consensus EPS falls from $12.49 for the current year to $10.48 for next year (as of 3 September 2026), which makes the forward earnings base smaller than the trailing one.
