Amazon AMZN on Thursday reported first-quarter profit of $3.6 billion, or $7.09 a share, on sales of $59.7 billion, up from earnings of $3.27 a share a year ago on revenue of $51 billion. That is record quarterly net income for the internet giant, which recorded revenue just slightly higher than $3 billion in the 2018 holiday-shopping period, the previous record.
