Facebook has 1.13 billion daily active users – up 17% from last year
The estimates were 1.11 billion daily active users
Facebook has 1.71 billion monthly active users – up 15% from last year
The estimates were 1.69 billion monthly active users.
The operating margin was 43%
Last year it was 31%
It earned $6.44 billion in revenue, which is up 59% from last year
The estimates were $6.02 billion
Earnings Per Share (EPS) was 97 cents
The estimates were 82 cents
So it beat the EPS estimates by 15 cents
A year ago, EPS was 47 cents
EPS should continue to grow
Messenger just hit 1 billion users last week
WhatsApp has over 1 billion users as well
Once Facebook monetizes both platforms
It should help Facebook continue to grow
Plus, Facebook is looking to make more money
from Oculus Rift and Virtual Reality
as well as Instagram
Shortly when Facebook had its IPO
the stock went down because people didn’t think it would do well on mobile
Part of the rise in their stock is because they’ve cracked the code on mobile
Estimates were $4.8 billion in mobile revenue
They made $5.24 billion in mobile ad revenue
This is 84% of their total ad revenue.
Last year, mobile ad revenue was 76% of their total revenue
Its Average Revenue Per User was $3.82 this past quarter
Estimates were $3.59
Last quarter it was $3.32
For a company this size
it’s extraordinary how well Facebook is still growing!
Right now only one analyst does not have a Buy rating on Facebook
Let’s see how many analysts raise their price targets on Facebook tomorrow
If Amazon and Google report a great quarter tomorrow
That could also propel Facebook higher
