One prediction, on the record

“We anticipate 2026 capital expenditures, including principal payments on finance leases, to be in the range of $125-145 billion, increased from our prior range of $115-135 billion. This reflects our expectations for higher component pricing this year and, to a lesser extent, additional data center costs to support future year capacity.”

Chief Financial Officer, Meta Platforms

Raised from the $115-135 billion range guided in January 2026 and nearly double the $72.2 billion Meta spent in 2025; resolves against actual full-year 2026 capex reported with Q4 2026 results in early 2027.
