Meta Q3 Revenue Hits $64.6 Billion, Beating Estimates and Its Own Guidance

Meta reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $64.60 billion and diluted earnings per share (profit per share) of $3.83 after US markets closed on October 21. Pre-report Bloomberg estimates were $63.3 billion and $3.56. Revenue beat Meta's own $61–64 billion guidance, its forecast. An $8.03 billion charge in Q3 2025 distorts year-over-year EPS comparisons, so revenue is the cleaner read.
