Meta Platforms (META) Q2 2026 Earnings News: Softer Guidance and Cash Flow Pressure Trigger a 7.95% Selloff

AI Market Summary
Meta's Q2 2026 results beat revenue expectations ($60.80B vs $60.17B), but GAAP EPS was pressured by legal and severance charges and free cash flow fell sharply to $784M amid heavy AI investment. Q3 revenue guidance midpoint also missed consensus, reinforcing concerns about rising cost intensity and cash conversion. The stock sold off 7.95%, signaling near-term risk repricing around spending discipline and AI ROI.
