Özet:

 This study aims to make inferences about company performance by analyzing the financial performance of Amazon. com, Inc. over a period of fifteen years 2005-2019 using selected evaluation criteria in accordance with Multi-Criteria Decision-Making MCDM methods. For this purpose, CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation CRITIC was used for weighting the evaluation criteria, and COmplex PRoportional ASsessment COPRAS, Additive Ratio ASsessment ARAS, Simple Additive Weighting SAW, and BORDA Count and Copeland methods were used to rank financial performance by years. From the results obtained through the CRITIC method, it was found that the most crucial evaluation criterion was the debt-to-equity DER ratio, and the least important was the return-on-assets ROA ratio. The BORDA Count and Copeland methods were used to obtain an integrative and single ranking series due to varying results of the COPRAS, ARAS, SAW methods by years. According to the scores obtained using BORDA and Copeland methods 2005 was the best year and 2014 was the least successful year in terms of financial performance. During these years, developments experienced in the company were discussed, and an attempt was made to examine the reasons behind the financial performance.
