Facebook is announcing its Q3 2019 earnings after markets close on Tuesday.
Here are the key numbers Wall Street is expecting (consensus estimates via Bloomberg):
- Revenue: $17.35 billion, which would represent 26% growth year-over-year
- Earnings per share (GAAP): $1.91
- Monthly active users: 2.45 billion
- Daily active users: 1.6 billion
Analysts have been predicting another strong quarter from Facebook. The Silicon Valley social networking giant has been beset by scandals over the past two years — but its core business has been largely unscathed. The company is running “almost flawlessly,” analysts at Wedbush wrote recently.
