According to @StockMKTNewz, Meta Platforms reported Q3 2025 EPS of $1.05 versus $6.66 expected while revenue was $51.2B versus $49.4B expected, per @StockMKTNewz. Meta attributed the EPS shortfall to a one-time, non-cash income tax charge of $15.93B tied to a valuation allowance related to the U.S. Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, per @StockMKTNewz. Excluding the $15.9B item, Meta indicated EPS would have been $7.25, implying a beat versus expectations, per @StockMKTNewz. Management also guided for a significant reduction in U.S. federal cash tax payments for the remainder of 2025 and future years due to the legislation, per @StockMKTNewz. The cited update did not mention any direct crypto market impacts or digital asset initiatives, per @StockMKTNewz.
