Cowen and Company's Kevin Kopelman reduced sales and shipment estimates for Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN) ahead of the online retailer's second-quarter report, expected out on Monday, July 23rd after the market closes.
Kopelman said the revisions were due to a weaker euro and a stronger dollar, offset by the closing of Amazon's Kiva acquisition.
The analyst is now looking for FY12 sales of $61.07 billion, down from $62.44 billion previously, and FY13 sales of $75.64 billion, down from a prior estimate of $78.05 billion. The Street is currently expecting FY12 sales of $63.31 billion and FY13 sales of $81.4 billion.
Kopelman cut his 2012 estimate for Kindle Fire units from 14 million to 12 million and his E Ink Kindle estimate to 16.3 million units.
The Cowen analyst's earnings estimates were left unchanged.
