24/7 Wall St.

Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ: FB) released second-quarter financial results after markets closed Wednesday, and it was absolutely catastrophic. While the top- and bottom-line results were more or less in line, there were more issues with user growth under the surface. Analysts had a chance to review this report and were reasonably disappointed.

24/7 Wall St. included some highlights from the earnings report, as well as what analysts are saying about Facebook after the fact.

The social media giant said that it had $1.74 in earnings per share (EPS) and $13.23 billion in revenue. That compared with consensus estimates from Thomson Reuters of $1.72 in EPS and $13.36 billion in revenue, as well as the $1.32 in EPS and $9.32 billion in revenue posted in the same period of last year.

Daily active users were 1.47 billion on average for June 2018, an increase of 11% year-over-year. At the same time, monthly active users were 2.23 billion as of June 30, 2018, an increase of 11%.

Mobile advertising revenue represented roughly 91% of advertising revenue for the second quarter of 2018, up from about 87% of advertising revenue in the second quarter of 2017.
