What the analyst said

Oppenheimer analyst Jason Helfstein raised the price target on Meta Platforms Inc.

(NASDAQ: META) to $775 (from $665) while maintaining an Outperform rating.

“With the macro and advertising environment better than feared vs. six weeks ago, we are increasing our estimates and price target. We are increasing FY25E/FY26Erevenue 4%/1%, reflecting 17%/15% ex.

FX growth, implying 102bp/63bps share gains, based on industry digital growth of 10%/12%.

TikTok 1Q tailwind is potential near-term risk, assuming no ban, while longer-term risk is META falling behind on AI model development (Llama 4 perceived as disappointment and subsequent $14.3B investment/Acqui-hire of Scale AI).

As a result, we are now forecasting ’25/’26 capex of $68B/$85B and EPS $25.41/$28.23, up 6%/11% y/y.

Our $775 target (was $665) is based on 27.5x 2026E EPS, a 3% discount to peers, despite EPS growing 39% slower ’24-’27E as investors believe META unlock new business with AI.”
