Some highlights include:
- 19% increase (year-over-year) in daily active users, average of 829 million per day
- 39% increase ("....") in mobile daily active users, average of 654 million per day
- 61% increase in revenue for 2Q2014 (compared to 2Q2013) to $2.91B
- 22% increase in expenses for 2Q214 ("...") to $1.52B
- 62% of ad revenue coming from mobile advertising (compared to 41% in 2Q2013)
Personally, I was surprised by these numbers. It's common knowledge that Facebook is doing well and is not going anywhere anytime soon, but a 61% increase in revenue is incredible.
For those of you who are not surprised by these numbers - "So, what? I knew those numbers were coming..." - then you might be surprised by the news that Facebook is now thinking about ways to go retail. Check out this short, informative Bloomberg video here.
