As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~56% MORE in OCF & ~57% LESS in FCF per share
Weโre using P/OCF instead of P/E as historical data reveals a stronger correlation between AMZN's share price and Operating Cash Flow (OCF)
Today, analysts anticipate aggressive OCF (per share) growth between 2025 - 2027:
2025E: $13.11 (21% YoY) *FY Dec
2026E: $16.21 (24% YoY)
2027E: $19.90 (23% YoY)
$AMZN has a decent track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so letโs assume $AMZN ends 2027 with $19.90 in OCF per share & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples (photos attached below also include these CAGR estimates):
17x P/OCF: $338.24๐ต โฆ ~21% CAGR
16x P/OCF: $318.34๐ต โฆ ~18% CAGR
15x P/OCF: $298.45๐ต โฆ ~14% CAGR
14x P/OCF: $278.55๐ต โฆ ~11% CAGR
As you can see, $AMZN appears to have strong double-digit CAGR potential if we assume ~15x P/OCF, a multiple thatโs justified given its growth rate & below its historical average
AWS & Amazon Ads will continue to drive growth & profitability. In $AMZN LTM:
โ๏ธAWS revenue: $116.38B
๐Ads revenue: $61.23B
Combined, these segments generated $177.61B net revenue โฆ with ~37% Operating Income Margin
Today at $219๐ต $AMZN appears to be a good consideration for investment
