Q2 revenue rose 18% to $1.18 billion, global MAUs increased 11% to 640 million, adjusted EBITDA increased 24% to $311 million, and free cash flow increased 37% to $270 million. Sustained AI-driven ad performance and international monetization could produce upside from the depressed anchor price.

Confirming evidence

  • Sentiment remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta +7.0.

Contradictions & invalidation

  • AI and infrastructure investment could constrain margin expansion if monetization gains slow.
  • Competition from larger platforms for users, creators, advertisers and AI capabilities remains substantial. [#10-K-2026-02-12]
  • Q3 guidance implies growth slowing to 13%-15%, while the subsequent CFO departure adds transition risk despite the company stating it did not result from a disagreement over operations, policies or practices.
