Re: How it works:-

They are simply shifting the money around, you reduce the tax bill by this little share maneuver and, at the same time, boost your share price - thus shifting the profits from taxable to non-taxable locations. "Amazon" doesn't make money ... it's the people who own the shares who make the money. That's the way the company is designed.
