Facebook, now operating under the parent company name Meta, has released its latest earnings results for Q3 2025, offering insight into the health of the social media, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and artificial intelligence (AI)-focused company.
For the quarter, Meta delivered a revenue beat. The company reported total revenue of $51.24 billion, surpassing Wall Street’s expectations of $49.34 billion. This strong revenue performance highlights continued demand across Meta’s platforms and products.
However, earnings-per-share (EPS) told a different story. Meta reported a final EPS of $1.05 per share, falling short of the $6.61 per share expected by analysts and significantly below the $7.21 per share estimated in the Earnings Whisper number. The primary reason for the disappointing EPS was a substantial one-time tax charge of $15.93 billion, which adversely impacted the company’s bottom line.
Without this tax charge, Meta claims its EPS would have stood at $7.21 per share, aligning with prior estimates and reflecting the company’s underlying profitability.
Meta posted these Q3 2025 earnings details on its investor relations website earlier this week, providing investors with a comprehensive update on its financial performance amid ongoing innovation in social media, VR/AR, and AI technologies.
