Amazon on Thursday tried to temper investor concerns about the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs on its e-commerce business, but the company may have few options left to ensure small third-party sellers stay put in the face of crushing levies.

U.S. President Trump has imposed 145% duties on imports from China, a move that has left companies including Amazon, Walmart and Apple scrambling to reassess supply chains and find ways to keep costs down.

The tech giant reported revenue grew by 9% during its first quarter to $155.7 billion. Its profit was $17.1 billion. The figures topped Wall Street projections.

About half of Amazon’s third-party sellers are from China, and the White House took significant issue with Amazon’s rumored plans to highlight tariff-related price increases this week.

Amazon reports earnings on Thursday, and investors will be focused on the outlook for signs of tariff-related pressure.

Amazon will report its first-quarter earnings after the market close, and investors want to hear about the effects of tariffs on its business. The Wall Street consensus expectations for Amazon are for the company to report March quarter revenue of $155.

Trump's sharp rebuke of Amazon could have broader implications for US retailers, complicating how they handle tariff-related price increases.
