Current trend
Shares of Meta Platforms Inc., an American multinational holding company that owns a technology conglomerate and the largest social network Facebook, are adjusting at 494.00.
The publication of the financial report is scheduled for April 24: estimated revenue may decrease from 40.11 billion dollars to 36.08 billion dollars, exceeding preliminary estimates of 36.01 billion dollars. The earnings per share (EPS) forecast assumes a reduction from 5.33 dollars to 4.29 dollars, which is also slightly higher than the previous estimate of 4.24 dollars.
In anticipation of the publication of the financial report, the leading agencies began to revise their estimates. Truist Securities experts adjusted the forecast for the emitter's shares, raising the target price from 525.0 dollars to 550.0 dollars, while maintaining the rating at the "buy" level. Analysts believe that the company is actively introducing new advertising monetization opportunities based on a higher volume of impressions, which shows better results than traditional targeting methods using cookies.
