How durable is the business?
Meta's infrastructure and investment scale expanded sharply, particularly for AI. Property and equipment increased 45%, and 2025 capital expenditures were $72.22 billion. Management expects 2026 capital expenditures of $115 billion to $135 billion, indicating a major increase in compute and data-center intensity. (3 expanding)
“We anticipate making capital expenditures of approximately $115 billion to $135 billion in 2026 to support our AI efforts and core business.”
Reality Labs revenue grew only modestly, while its operating loss widened. AI-glasses sales increased, but lower Meta Quest sales partly offset the improvement. The segment remains a very small revenue contributor and a large drain on operating profit. (1 shifted)
“RL revenue $2,207... 3%; Loss from operations $(19,193)... (8)%; Operating margin (870)%... The increase was driven by an increase in sales of AI glasses, partially offset by a decrease in Meta Quest sales.”
