Meta Platforms received a Buy rating with a price target of $817 per share, implying a 26% upside from current levels. The company showed strong Q2 2026 ad revenue growth, with impressions up 14% and average ad price rising 12%, supporting solid earnings momentum. The valuation is appealing, with Meta's forward PEG ratio significantly below sector and historical averages. Risks include sustained high AI spending amid slower revenue growth, but current ad momentum supports confidence in earnings growth over the next 12 to 18 months.
