Meta is spending aggressively to secure its position in AI, but data centers, computing capacity, and advanced models require enormous capital before their full economic value becomes clear.

Revenue climbed 26% YoY to $64.6B, but operating income fell 37%, while free cash flow turned negative at $2.12B.
The company also disclosed roughly $810B in lease obligations and noncancelable contractual commitments, much of it tied to infrastructure and long-term capacity.
