TIP825: Meta, Adobe, Booking Holdings w/ Stig Brodersen, Tobias Carlisle & Hari Ramachandra

What was said

"Their forecasted ad revenue for 2026 is $243 billion, which will be $3 billion more than Google's, and they're growing. Their operating margin is very healthy at 41% with a $46 billion free cash flow in 2025, a 30% net margin."

Value investor Hari Ramachandra presented data showing Meta is on track to overtake Google in advertising revenue by 2026, reaching $243 billion versus Google's projected $240 billion. Despite the stock falling 20% from its peak due to market concerns over $135 billion in AI infrastructure spending, Hari sees a 46% upside based on Meta's pricing power and network effects.
