Amazon's earnings are rising. Is there a possibility that dividend announcements will be part of that?

There is a lot of buzz in the trader community that Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) will announce dividends in line with the financial results report on April 30.

This e-commerce giant will follow in the footsteps of Alphabet (GOOG) and Meta Platforms announced by both companies.

The first dividend in history will be paid in 2024. Technology giants Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), and NVDA (NVDA) also pay dividends, all offering modest yields of less than 1% to new investors.

Amazon (AMZN) has recorded a surplus for 6 consecutive quarters, and cash positions have increased rapidly in recent quarters.

But the Seattle-based company also has a long history of reinvesting cash into growth opportunities.

Wall Street analysts are generally silent about the possibility that Amazon (AMZN) will begin dividends, but Goldman Sachs has ranked Amazon (AMZN) 8th on the list of companies that should pay attention to when announcing dividends based on past data.

It suggests that the trend of starting dividends is relatively high. Meanwhile, Bloomberg is predicting payments to Amazon (AMZN) for the first time in history.

Amazon (AMZN) shares traded flat on Monday.

E-commerce stocks have risen 18.3% since the beginning of the year and have risen more than 70% in the past 52 weeks.

Amazon (AMZN) remains the leading candidate for Morgan Stanley.

Analyst Brian Nowak recently wrote that the company is increasing confidence in AMZN's ability to achieve 100 billion dollars or more in 2026 EBIT and 10-11 dollars in free cash flow per share in 2026.

In Seeking Alpha, analyst Yuval Rotem published a recent article on how Amazon's (AMZN) margin train is speeding up.

He said, “Despite the company's huge scale, Amazon is expected to grow EPS at a CAGR of 25% over the next 10 years, and at the same time continue to grow revenue at a double-digit pace.”
