Meta posted strong Q1 results, with revenue up 33% to $56.3 billion and operating margin held at 41%. However, shares fell about 7% in extended trading after the company lifted its 2026 capex plan to $125 billion-$145 billion, signaling heavier spending ahead, likely tied in part to AI investment. The reaction suggests investors are focusing more on rising capital intensity than the earnings strength.
