Josh Constine says, “People aren’t using Facebook less, according to its new earnings report. Facebook recovered from last quarter’s miss, beating the street’s estimates in Q2 2015 with $4.04 billion in revenue and $0.50 earnings per share. Facebook now has 1.49 billion monthly users, up 3.47 percent quarter over quarter, which was a bit slower than Q1’s 3.6 percent growth.

Analysts had predicted $3.99 billion in revenue with 47 cents EPS. However, GAAP net income year-over-year, the measure of Facebook’s real profit, is down from $791 million to $719 million. That seems to be contributing to the current 1.39 percent dip in Facebook’s share price to $95.53 in after-hours trading.

But in terms of the long-term health of the social network, the most important stat is that Facebook held strong at 65 percent stickiness, or DAU divided by MAU“.
