Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) is projected to have a median price target of $880 per share, indicating a 22% upside from its current share price. The company is heavily investing in artificial intelligence (AI), with expected capital expenditures of approximately $67 billion this year, primarily for AI data centers.
In the last quarter, Meta reported a revenue increase of 22% and a 36% growth in net income. Analysts anticipate earnings-per-share (EPS) growth to reaccelerate to double-digits in 2026 and 2027, despite a forecasted uptick in operating expenses due to rising capital expenditures.
Currently trading at 25 times the 2026 earnings projections, Meta remains an attractive investment amidst its AI-driven growth potential, anticipating continued strong revenue performance and the capability to optimize its advertising business through innovative AI applications.
