The company at the time
Amazon is the largest online store in the United States. It also rents computing power to other businesses through Amazon Web Services, but it doesn't report those results separately. It has chosen to reinvest almost everything it earns in warehouses, faster delivery, devices and new businesses, so its profit is tiny compared with its sales. A few days ago it reported its 2013 results, and the share price fell about 11% the next day because sales grew less than investors had hoped. The company also said it was considering raising the price of its Prime membership.
Information available at the time
The same numbers as on company pages, as they had been reported by February 3, 2014. Sector medians aren't shown because StockLab doesn't have them as they stood back then.
Revenue, growth, profit and cash flow are for fiscal year 2013 (ended December 2013), the latest full year in an annual report filed by then; cash and debt come from the latest report (its date is on the card). Results announced after that aren't in these cards yet, even if the story above mentions them, so their numbers can differ.
