META Focuses on User Safety & Engagement: Ad Revenues to Rise?

Meta Platforms ' META focus on enhancing safety for WhatsApp users and new ways to connect Instagram users is expected to help drive advertising revenues. The company's focus on integrating AI into its platforms — Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and Threads — is driving user engagement to boost ad revenues. AI push is helping Meta Platforms offer content that is interesting and useful, eventually driving engagement. Improvement in content quality, driven by META's recommendation system, has led to a 5% increase in time spent on Facebook and 6% on Instagram in second-quarter 2025. The launch of AI video editing tools across Meta AI and the new Edits app are noteworthy developments. Meanwhile, META has introduced features and new anti-scam tools in WhatsApp to combat scammers. In the first half of 2025, WhatsApp proactively detected and banned more than 6.8 million accounts tied to online fraud and scams. Safety features now allow WhatsApp users to review details, leave quietly, or mute notifications when a new contact adds the user to an unknown group. For individual WhatsApp chats, Meta Platforms is testing warnings when users message someone outside their contacts. Instagram has launched the latest features and tools like repost, interactive map and Friends tab in Reels. The repost option helps Instagram users share reels and posts, which will appear in friends' feeds and a dedicated repost tab on profiles. The interactive map allows friends to share locations and explore posts, reels and stories tagged to places. The Friends tab in Reels makes it easy to see what content friends are enjoying. In second-quarter 2025, advertising revenues (98.8% of Family of Apps revenues) increased 21.5% year over year to $46.56 billion and accounted for 98% of second-quarter revenues. At constant currency, revenues increased 22% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter 2025 advertising is pegged at $48.07 billion, indicating more than 20% growth over the figure reported in the year-ago quarter. META Faces Tough Competition for Advertising Dollars Meta Platforms is facing tough competition from the likes of Alphabet GOOGL and Amazon AMZN for advertising dollars. Alphabet's advertising revenues rose 10.4% year over year to $71.34 billion and accounted for 74% of second-quarter 2025 total revenues. YouTube's advertising revenues improved 13.1% year over year to $9.77 billion, while Search and other revenues increased 11.7% year over year to $54.19 billion. Alphabet is leveraging AI to boost search dominance with the launch of Gemini 2.5. Search revenues are driven by improving engagement with features like AI Overview, which now has 2 billion users per month and is available in more than 40 languages across 200 countries. Amazon's advertising business reached a milestone in the second quarter of 2025, capturing 9.4% of the company's total revenues — the highest share ever recorded — and rose 23% year over year to $15.69 billion. Amazon's ability to harness its vast retail media presence, proprietary shopping data and expanding connected TV (CTV) footprint is a key catalyst. The global rollout of Prime Video ads adds a high-value, premium channel that may lift revenues. META's Share Price Performance, Valuation & Estimates Meta Platforms' shares have jumped 31% year to date, outperforming the broader Zacks Computer and Technology sector's return of 13.8% and the Zacks Internet Software industry's appreciation of 21.4%.

Google settles YouTube children's privacy lawsuit

A woman walks by a giant screen with a logo at an event at the Paris Google Lab on the sidelines of the AI Action Summit in Paris, on Feb. 9, 2025. (AP Photo/Thibault Camus,File) Google will pay US$30 million to settle a lawsuit claiming it violated the privacy of children using YouTube by collecting their personal information without parental consent, and using it to send targeted ads. A preliminary settlement of the proposed class action was filed on Monday night in San Jose, California, federal court, and requires approval by U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan van Keulen. Google denied wrongdoing in agreeing to settle. The Alphabet unit agreed in 2019 to pay $170 million in fines and change some practices to settle similar charges by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and New York Attorney General Letitia James. Some critics viewed that accord as too lenient. Google did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Tuesday. Lawyers for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to similar requests. The parents or guardians of 34 children accused Google of violating dozens of state laws by letting content providers bait children with cartoons, nursery rhymes and other content to help it collect personal information, even after the 2019 settlement. Van Keulen dismissed claims against the content providers -including Hasbro, Mattel, Cartoon Network and DreamWorks Animation - in January, citing a lack of evidence tying them to Google's alleged data collection. Mediation began the next month, leading to the settlement. The proposed class covers U.S. children under 13 who watched YouTube between July 1, 2013 and April 1, 2020. Lawyers for the plaintiffs said there could be 35 million to 45 million class members. They said if 1% to 2% submit claims, a rate comparable to similar earlier cases, claimants could receive $30 to $60 each, before deducting legal fees and costs. The lawyers plan to seek up to $9 million from the settlement for legal fees. Alphabet posted net income of $62.7 billion on revenue of $186.7 billion in the first half of 2025. The case is C.H. et al v Google LLC et al, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 19-07016. (Reporting by Jonathan Stempel in New York; Editing by Richard Chang)
