Analysts set a 12-month price target of $801.42 for META, citing strong Q1 earnings and AI growth despite recent selloff.
Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) has fallen 18% in 2026, trading near its 52-week low of $519.78 despite beating Q1 estimates with $10.44 EPS and $56.31 billion revenue, up 33% year-over-year.
The decline contrasts with 57 analyst buy ratings and zero sells, with even bear-case projections at $701, 29% above current levels. Meta’s raised 2026 capex of $125 to $145 billion and Reality Labs’ $4 billion quarterly loss on $402 million revenue fuel skepticism.
A 24/7 Wall St. model projects a 47.63% upside to $801.42 over 12 months, driven by ad revenue growth, AI expansion, and a mid-teens forward P/E.
