Wall Street analysts on average expect Facebook’s quarterly revenue to rise 3% to $17.4 billion, which would be its slowest growth ever, per Refinitiv data.

“If they beat revenue expectations, it will be an incredible testament to the flexibility and durability of their ad ecosystem. But it will be a Herculean task,” said Gogi Gupta, whose agency tracks more than 8 billion ad impressions across Facebook’s platforms, including Instagram and Messenger.
