Facebook stock rose nearly 5% in after hours trading despite the company announcing that it could take a one-time charge of as much $5 billion due to an ongoing Federal Trade Commission inquiry.

"We had a good quarter and our business and community continue to grow," said CEO Mark Zuckerberg in a statement."We are focused on building out our privacy-focused vision for the future of social networking, and working collaboratively to address important issues around the internet."
