About Meta

Meta is the largest social media company in the world, boasting close to 4 billion monthly active users worldwide. The firm's "Family of Apps," its core business, consists of Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp. End users can leverage these applications for a variety of different purposes, from keeping in touch with friends to following celebrities and running digital businesses for free. Meta packages customer data, gleaned from its application ecosystem and sells ads to digital advertisers. While the firm has been investing heavily in its Reality Labs business, it remains a very small part of Meta's overall sales.

Bulls say / Bears say

Meta’s second-quarter 2025 revenue climbed 22% year over year to $47.52 billion, with net income rising 36% to $18.34 billion, surpassing Wall Street estimates and lifting its operating margin to 43% (WSJ).
Meta's primary advertising business, which drives 98% of revenue, remains strong and generates substantial cash flow that supports the company’s significant investments in AI infrastructure (WSJ).
Meta secured a six-year cloud computing agreement with Google Cloud worth over $10 billion, ensuring key infrastructure for its AI growth and faster training of models (Reuters).
Meta's Reality Labs unit reported a Q2 operating loss of $4.53 billion, raising its cumulative losses since late 2020 to nearly $70 billion and fueling concerns about the long-term payoff from its metaverse investments (CNBC).
Meta is not expected to make further changes to its pay-or-consent ad model under the EU Digital Markets Act, leaving it exposed to potential new antitrust charges and daily penalties that could reach up to 5% of its average global turnover (Reuters).
Ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions put up to $7 billion in Meta's annual ad revenue at risk, as Chinese e-commerce companies Temu and Shein reduce spending on Meta ads following new tariffs, leaving about 11% of the company’s revenue vulnerable to geopolitical risks (CNBC).
