This report analyzes the key changes in Amazon's balance sheet for 2013, highlighting significant items such as cash and cash equivalents, property, plant, and equipment (PPE), and long-term debt. Amazon holds substantial cash reserves and low-risk government debt. Notably, the acquisition of corporate headquarters and additional buildings in 2012 increased their land and buildings value. The long-term debt structure is staggered to minimize repayment pressure. The report outlines missing details in the income statement and raises questions about product segment sales and operating expenses.

Takeaways from balance sheet footnotes • Amazon has a ton of cash and cash equivalents in the form of cash and money market funds • They also hold a lot of low risk, government debt • Most of their PPE is in the form of internal use software and equipment • Land and buildings went up by $1.5 billion in 2012 because they bought their corporate headquarters and 11 buildings which they were leasing before • Their long term debt is staggered so that they don’t have significant amounts due in any one year • Deferred tax assets are immaterial and rolled in to other assets
Other information • The income statement line items were not broken down in their footnotes • Tax rate adjustments were not related to financing • Items I was hoping to see: • Sales breakdown by product segment • Cost of sales breakdown, particularly shipping expense • Inventory information • More information on other operating expenses
