Meta reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of more than $60 billion, a 28% increase, while taking a $2.4 billion charge connected to legal proceedings.
The parent company of Facebook and Instagram disclosed the charge in its quarterly results. The available source record did not specify which proceedings accounted for the amount. Meta also recorded costs related to layoffs during the quarter.
The figures show strong revenue growth alongside substantial one-time expenses. The legal charge reduced the benefit of the quarter’s sales gains, while the lack of detail about the underlying proceedings leaves investors awaiting further clarification.
