Tech giant Facebook crushed analyst estimates when it reported first-quarter results on Wednesday
quote:
The company reported adjusted first quarter earnings of 77 cents per share on revenue of about $5.38 billion. Analysts had expected Facebook to report earnings of about 62 cents per share on $5.26 billion in revenue, according to a consensus estimate from Thomson Reuters. In fact, Facebook's earnings per share figure was 10 percent better than the highest estimate of 41 Wall Street analysts. Shares in the company jumped about 9 percent in after-hours trading following the announcement. If Facebook were to open at those levels on Thursday, it would easily exceed its all-time high share price of $117.59. Facebook also said it was proposing the creation of new class C shares. If the proposal is approved, shareholders would get two C shares for each class A or class B share they own. This would potentially allow Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to sell some of his shares while still maintaining control of the company.

Good for the employees and investors in FB. I totally thought FB was dead in the water back when the IPO had all sorts of issues. Yea, $120 a share!
