Facebook, now known as Meta, recently released its Q3 2025 earnings results, providing the latest insight into the financial health of the social media, VR/AR, and AI-focused company.
For the quarter, Meta exceeded revenue expectations by reporting $51.24 billion, surpassing Wall Street’s forecast of $49.34 billion. This strong revenue performance highlights the company’s continued growth across its diverse business segments.
However, Meta fell short on earnings-per-share (EPS) for Q3 2025. The company posted an EPS of $1.05 per share, significantly below the $6.61 per share expected by analysts and the $7.21 per share suggested in the Earnings Whisper number.
The primary reason for this earnings miss was a substantial one-time tax charge of $15.93 billion, which heavily impacted Meta’s bottom line. Without this tax charge, Meta states its EPS would have reached $7.21 per share, aligning with previous estimates.
Meta’s Q3 2025 earnings report underscores a mixed quarter — strong top-line growth tempered by a significant tax-related expense affecting profitability. Investors will be watching closely to see how the company navigates these challenges moving forward.
For more details, Meta’s full Q3 2025 earnings report is available on its investor relations website.
