Price (last ~year)
Meta's most recent quarter (June 30, 2026) showed revenue of $60.80B, up 28% YoY on a TTM basis of $228.25B, but earnings fell 13.4% YoY and the company missed estimates with EPS of $6.18 versus $7.10 expected — its first miss in four quarters. Free cash flow compressed to $1.75B as capex of $30.12B nearly matched operating cash flow of $31.86B, though leverage remains modest at 1.0x debt/EBITDA with a 2.23 current ratio. The stock closed at $721.31, down 2.4% on the day but up 10.4% over the past month and 14.7% above its 200-day SMA, trading 7.2% below its 52-week high. Valuation sits at a 27.84 P/E with a PEG near 1.0, while Wells Fargo set a $1,000 target and Citi projected Muse could reach $27B in annual revenue by 2030.
