AMAZON.COM ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER SALES UP 18% TO $6.70 BILLION; 2008 FREE CASH FLOW GROWS 16% TO $1.36 BILLION

SEATTLE—(BUSINESS WIRE)—January 29, 2009—Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2008.

Operating cash flow was $1.70 billion in 2008, compared with $1.41 billion in 2007. Free cash flow increased 16% to $1.36 billion in 2008, compared with $1.18 billion in 2007.

Net sales increased 18% to $6.70 billion in the fourth quarter, compared with $5.67 billion in fourth quarter 2007. Excluding the $320 million unfavorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the quarter, net sales would have grown 24% compared with fourth quarter 2007.

Operating income was $272 million in the fourth quarter, compared with $271 million in fourth quarter 2007. Excluding the $26 million unfavorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the quarter, operating income would have grown 10% compared with fourth quarter 2007.

Net income increased 9% to $225 million in the fourth quarter, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared with net income of $207 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in fourth quarter 2007.

“We remain relentlessly focused on serving customers with low prices, great selection and free shipping offers, including Amazon Prime,” said Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com. “We’re particularly grateful for the unusually strong demand for Kindle in the fourth quarter.”

Full Year 2008

Net sales increased 29% to $19.17 billion, or 28% excluding the $127 million favorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the year, compared with $14.84 billion in 2007.

Operating income increased 28% to $842 million, or 27% excluding the $10 million favorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the year, compared with $655 million in 2007. Included in 2008 operating income is a $53 million non-cash gain recognized on the sale of the Company’s European DVD rental assets.

Net income increased 36% to $645 million in 2008, or $1.49 per diluted share, compared with net income of $476 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in 2007.

Financial Guidance

The following forward-looking statements reflect Amazon.com’s expectations as of January 29, 2009. Our results are inherently unpredictable and may be materially affected by many factors, such as fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, changes in global economic conditions and consumer spending, world events, the rate of growth of the Internet and online commerce and the various factors detailed below.

First Quarter 2009 Guidance

 

  •  

Net sales are expected to be between $4.525 billion and $4.925 billion, or to grow between 9% and 19% compared with first quarter 2008.

 

  •  

Operating income is expected to be between $125 million and $210 million, or between 37% decline and 6% growth compared with first quarter 2008. This guidance includes approximately $75 million for stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, and it assumes, among other things, that no additional business acquisitions or investments are concluded and that there are no further revisions to stock-based compensation estimates.

A conference call will be webcast live today at 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET, and will be available for at least three months at www.amazon.com/ir. This call will contain forward-looking statements and other material information regarding the Company’s financial and operating results.

These forward-looking statements are inherently difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially for a variety of reasons, including, in addition to the factors discussed above, the amount that Amazon.com invests in new business opportunities and the timing of those investments, the mix of products sold to customers, the mix of net sales derived from products as compared with services, the extent to which we owe income taxes, competition, management of growth, potential fluctuations in operating results, international growth and expansion, the outcomes of legal proceedings and claims, fulfillment center optimization, risks of inventory management, seasonality, the degree to which the Company enters into, maintains and develops commercial agreements, acquisitions and strategic transactions, and risks of fulfillment throughput and productivity. Other risks and uncertainties include, among others, risks related to new products, services and technologies, system interruptions, indebtedness, government regulation and taxation, payments and fraud. In addition, the current global economic climate amplifies many of these risks. More information about factors that potentially could affect Amazon.com’s financial results is included in Amazon.com’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings.

Financial and Operational Summary

(unaudited)

Quarterly Results of Operations (comparisons are with the equivalent period of the prior year, unless otherwise stated)

Net Sales

 

  •  

Revenue is generally recorded gross for sales of our own inventory and net for sales by other sellers. Amounts paid in advance for subscription services, including amounts received for Amazon Prime and other membership programs, are deferred and recognized as revenue over the subscription term. For our products with multiple elements, where a standalone value for each element cannot be established, we recognize the revenue and related cost over the estimated economic life of the product.

 

  •  

Shipping revenue, which includes amounts earned from customers who choose paid shipping options, Amazon Prime memberships and Fulfillment by Amazon programs, was $266 million, up less than 1% from $265 million.

Cost of Sales

 

  •  

Cost of sales consists of the purchase price of consumer products and content sold by us, inbound and outbound shipping charges, packaging supplies, and costs incurred in operating and staffing our fulfillment and customer service centers on behalf of other businesses.

 

  •  

Payment processing and related transaction costs, including those associated with seller transactions, are classified in “Fulfillment” on our consolidated statements of operations.

 

  •  

Shipping charges to receive products from our suppliers are included in our inventory and recognized as “Cost of sales” upon sale of products to our customers.

 

  •  

Outbound shipping costs totaled $508 million, up 13% from $449 million. Net shipping cost was $242 million, or 3.6% of net sales, up 32% from $184 million, or 3.2% of net sales. One way we offer lower prices is through free-shipping offers that result in a net cost to us in delivering products.

Operating Expenses

 

  •  

Depreciation expense for fixed assets, including amortization of internal-use software and website development, was $86 million, up from $69 million. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally two years or less for assets such as internal-use software, two or three years for our technology infrastructure, five years for furniture and fixtures, and ten years for heavy equipment).

 

  •  

Stock-based compensation was $79 million, compared with $54 million. The increase in stock-based compensation is primarily attributable to an increase in total stock compensation value granted to our employees. We utilize the accelerated, rather than a straight-line, method for recognizing stock-based compensation. Under this method, over 50% of the compensation cost would be expensed in the first year of a four-year vesting term.

Fulfillment

 

  •  

Certain of our fulfillment-related costs that are incurred on behalf of other businesses are classified as cost of sales rather than fulfillment.

 

  •  

The increase in fulfillment costs in absolute dollars relates to variable costs corresponding with sales volume and inventory levels; our mix of product sales; payment processing and related transaction costs, including mix of payment methods and costs from our guarantee for certain seller transactions; and costs from expanding fulfillment capacity.

 

  •  

Additionally, because payment processing costs associated with seller transactions are based on the gross purchase price of underlying transactions, and payment processing and related transaction costs are higher as a percentage of revenue versus our retail sales, sales by our sellers have higher fulfillment costs as a percent of net sales.

 

  •  

We expanded our fulfillment capacity in 2008 and 2007 through gains in efficiencies and increases in leased warehouse space. This expansion was designed to accommodate greater selection and in-stock inventory levels and meet anticipated shipment volumes from sales of our own products as well as sales by third parties for which we provide fulfillment services. We periodically evaluate our facility requirements as necessary.

Marketing

 

  •  

We direct customers to our websites primarily through a number of targeted online marketing channels, such as our Associates program, sponsored search, portal advertising, e-mail campaigns, and other initiatives. Our marketing expenses are largely variable, based on growth in sales and changes in rates. To the extent there is increased or decreased competition for these traffic sources, or to the extent our mix of these channels shifts, we would expect to see a corresponding change in our marketing expense or its effect.

 

  •  

Marketing costs increased in absolute dollars in Q4 2008 due to increased spending in variable online marketing channels, such as our Associates program and sponsored search programs.

Technology and Content

 

  •  

Technology and content expenses consist principally of payroll and related expenses for employees involved in application development, category expansion, editorial content, buying, merchandising selection, and systems support, as well as costs associated with the compute, storage and telecommunications infrastructure.

 

  •  

We seek to efficiently invest in several areas of technology and content, including seller platforms, web services, digital initiatives, and the expansion of new and existing product categories, as well as in technology infrastructure to enhance the customer experience, improve our process efficiencies and support our infrastructure web services.

 

  •  

A significant majority of our technology costs are incurred in the US and most of them are allocated to our North America segment.

 

  •  

Certain costs relating to development of internal-use software and website development, including software used to upgrade and enhance our websites and processes supporting our business, are capitalized and amortized over two years.

 

  •  

During Q4 2008 and Q4 2007, we capitalized $40 million (including $7 million of stock-based compensation) and $33 million (including $6 million of stock-based compensation) of costs associated with internal-use software and website development. Amortization of previously capitalized amounts was $38 million and $31 million for Q4 2008 and Q4 2007.

Stockholders’ Equity and Stock-Based Awards

 

  •  

As of December 31, 2008, outstanding common shares plus shares underlying outstanding stock-based awards were 446 million, up from 435 million as of December 31, 2007. This total includes all stock-based awards outstanding, without regard for estimated forfeitures, consisting of vested and unvested awards and in-the-money and out-of-the-money stock options.

 

  •  

As of December 31, 2008, stock-based awards outstanding were 17.9 million, or 4.2% of shares outstanding, down from 18.2 million, or 4.4% of outstanding shares. Outstanding stock awards consist of 16.7 million restricted stock units and 1.2 million stock options with a $25.44 weighted-average exercise price.

 

  •  

We granted restricted stock unit awards of 0.9 million shares in Q4 2008 and 7.3 million shares in 2008, compared with 0.3 million shares and 7.6 million shares in Q4 2007 and for 2007.

 

  •  

In Q4 2008 we repurchased 2.2 million shares of common stock for $100 million under the $1 billion repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors in February 2008.

Other Income (Expense), Net

 

  •  

Other income (expense), net, was $26 million and $3 million during Q4 2008 and Q4 2007. The amount consists primarily of gains and losses related to foreign currency remeasurement.

 

  •  

The remeasurement of our 6.875% PEACS and intercompany balances can result in significant gains and losses associated with the effect of movements in currency exchange rates.

 

Page 13 of 17


Income Taxes

 

  •  

Our annual effective tax rate was 27%. The rate was lower than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to earnings of our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. in jurisdictions where our effective tax rate is lower than in the U.S.

 

  •  

A majority of our tax provision is non-cash. We have current tax benefits and net operating losses relating to excess stock-based compensation that are being utilized to reduce our U.S. taxable income. As such, cash paid for income taxes in 2008 was $53 million compared with $24 million in 2007.

 

  •  

We are under examination, or may be subject to examination, by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for calendar years 2005 through 2008. Additionally, any net operating losses that were generated in prior years and utilized in these years may also be subject to examination by the IRS. We are under examination, or may be subject to examination, in the following major jurisdictions for the years specified: Kentucky for 2004 through 2008, France for 2005 through 2008, Germany for 2003 through 2008, Luxembourg for 2003 through 2008, and the United Kingdom for 2003 through 2008. In addition, in 2007, Japanese tax authorities assessed income tax, including penalties and interest, of approximately $119 million against one of our U.S. subsidiaries for the years 2003 through 2005. We believe that these claims are without merit and are disputing the assessment. Further proceedings on the assessment will be stayed during negotiations between U.S. and Japanese authorities over the double taxation issues the assessment raises, and we have provided bank guarantees to suspend enforcement of the assessment. We also may be subject to income tax examination by Japanese tax authorities for 2006 through 2008.

Net Income

 

  •  

Net income includes the impact of foreign currency remeasurements included in “Other income (expense), net” which fluctuate with changes in exchange rates.

Cash Flows and Balance Sheet

 

  •  

SFAS 123(R) requires the reporting of tax benefits relating to excess stock-based compensation as financing cash flows. Excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation activity was $(1) million in Q4 2008 and $159 million in 2008, compared with $163 million in Q4 2007 and $257 million in 2007.

 

  •  

Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $3.73 billion, at fair value, primarily consist of cash, government and government agency securities, AAA-rated money market funds and other investment grade securities. Included are amounts held in foreign currencies of $1.7 billion, primarily in Euros, British Pounds and Japanese Yen.

 

  •  

Other assets include, among other things, marketable securities restricted for longer than one year; intangibles, net; deferred costs; certain equity investments; and intellectual property rights. The majority of marketable securities restricted for longer than one year relate to collateralization of bank guarantees and debt related to our international operations.

 

  •  

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities include, among other things, liabilities for gift certificates of $270 million and current unearned revenue of $191 million, which is recorded when payments are received in advance of performing our service obligations and is recognized over the service period.

 

  •  

Long-term debt primarily includes the following:

(1) The 6.875% Premium Adjustable Convertible Securities (“6.875% PEACS”) are convertible, at the holders’ option, into our common stock at a conversion price of €84.883 per share ($118.62 per share, based on the exchange rate as of December 31, 2008). Total common stock issuable as of December 31, 2008, upon conversion of our outstanding 6.875% PEACS was 2.8 million shares, which is excluded from our calculation of earnings per share as its effect is currently anti-dilutive. The U.S. Dollar equivalent principal, interest, and conversion price fluctuate based on the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange ratio. We have the right to redeem the 6.875% PEACS, in whole or in part, by paying the principal plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

 

  •  

Other long-term liabilities include tax contingencies, long-term capital lease obligations, construction liability, deferred tax liabilities, unearned revenue and other long-term obligations.

 

  •  

In December 2007, we entered into a series of leases and other agreements for the lease of corporate office space to be developed in Seattle, Washington with initial terms of up to 16 years commencing on completion of development in 2010 and 2011 and options to extend for two five-year periods. At December 31, 2008, under the agreements we committed to occupy approximately 1,360,000 square feet of office space. In addition, we have the right to occupy up to an additional approximately 330,000 square feet subject to a termination fee, estimated to be up to approximately $10 million, if we elect not to occupy the additional space. We also have an option to lease up to an additional approximately 500,000 square feet at rates based on fair market values at the time the option is exercised, subject to certain conditions. In addition, if interest rates exceed a certain threshold, we have the option to provide financing for some of the buildings.

Certain Definitions and Other

 

  •  

We present segment information for North America and International. We measure operating results of our segments using an internal performance measure of direct segment operating expenses that excludes stock-based compensation and other operating expense, each of which is not allocated to segment results. Other centrally incurred operating costs are fully allocated to segment results. Our operating results, particularly for the International segment, are affected by movements in foreign exchange rates. A significant majority of our technology costs are incurred in the U.S. and most of them are allocated to our North America segment.

 

  •  

The North America segment consists of amounts earned from retail sales of consumer products (including from sellers) and subscriptions through North America-focused websites such as www.amazon.com and www.amazon.ca. This segment includes export sales from www.amazon.com and www.amazon.ca.

 

  •  

The International segment consists of amounts earned from retail sales of consumer products (including from sellers) and subscriptions through internationally focused websites such as www.amazon.co.uk, www.amazon.de, www.amazon.co.jp, www.amazon.fr, and www.amazon.cn. This segment includes export sales from these internationally based sites (including export sales from these sites to customers in the U.S. and Canada), but excludes export sales from www.amazon.com and www.amazon.ca.

 

  •  

We provide supplemental sales information within each segment for three categories: Media, Electronics and Other General Merchandise, and Other. Media consists of amounts earned from retail sales from all sellers in categories such as books, movies, music, digital downloads, software and video games (including game consoles). Electronics and Other General Merchandise consists of amounts earned from retail sales from all sellers of items in categories not included in Media, such as electronics and computers, devices, home and garden, toys, kids and baby, grocery, apparel, shoes and jewelry, health and beauty, sports and outdoors, tools, and auto and industrial. Other consists of non-retail activities, such as the Amazon Enterprise Solutions program, Amazon Web Services, and miscellaneous marketing and promotional activities, such as our co-branded credit card programs.

 

  •  

Operating cash flow is net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, including cash outflows for interest and excluding excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less cash outflows for purchases of fixed assets, including internal-use software and website development.

 

  •  

Operating cycle is number of days of sales in inventory plus number of days of sales in trade accounts receivable minus accounts payable days. Accounts payable days are calculated as the quotient of ending accounts payable to cost of sales, multiplied by the number of days in the period. Inventory turns are calculated as the quotient of trailing-twelve-month cost of sales to average inventory over five quarter ends.

 

  •  

Return on invested capital is trailing-twelve-month free cash flow divided by average total assets less current liabilities (excluding current portion of our long-term debt) over five quarter ends.

 

  •  

References to customers mean customer accounts, which are unique e-mail addresses, established either when a customer’s initial order is shipped or when a customer orders from other sellers on our websites. Customer accounts exclude certain customers, including customers associated with certain of our acquisitions (including www.amazon.cn customers), Amazon Enterprise Solutions program customers, Amazon.com Payments customers, Amazon Web Services customers, and the customers of select companies with whom we have a technology alliance or marketing and promotional relationship. Customers are considered active when they have placed an order during the preceding twelve-month period.

  •  

References to sellers means seller accounts, which are established when a seller receives an order from a customer account. Seller accounts exclude Amazon Enterprise Solutions sellers. Sellers are considered active when they have received an order from a customer during the preceding twelve-month period.

 

  •  

References to registered developers mean cumulative registered developer accounts, which are established when potential developers enroll with Amazon Web Services and receive a developer access key.

 

  •  

References to units mean physical and digital units sold (net of returns and cancellations) by us and sellers at Amazon.com domains worldwide – such as www.amazon.com, www.amazon.co.uk, www.amazon.de, www.amazon.co.jp, www.amazon.fr, www.amazon.ca and www.amazon.cn, as well as Amazon.com-owned items sold through non-Amazon.com domains, such as books, music and movie items ordered from Amazon.com’s store at www.target.com. Units sold do not include units associated with certain of our acquisitions or Amazon.com gift certificates.
