With Facebook, now known as Meta, releasing its Q3 2025 earnings results, the company also disclosed its various costs and losses. As expected, Meta Reality Labs once again featured prominently among the segments posting significant losses.
The VR/AR division of Meta consistently reports substantial quarterly losses, and Q3 2025 was no exception. This quarter, Meta Reality Labs incurred a loss of $4.432 billion.
These figures were detailed on Facebook’s investor relations website this week as part of the comprehensive Q3 2025 earnings report. While the $4.432 billion loss marked a slight improvement compared to the previous quarter’s $4.5 billion loss in Q2 2025, it still represented an increase compared to the same quarter last year. In Q3 2024, the segment reported losses of $4.4 billion.
Since its inception, Meta Reality Labs has frequently contributed billions in losses to Meta’s overall financial results. Although the company has undeniably driven considerable innovation within the AR and VR industries, it has yet to deliver positive financial returns.
The future prospects for Meta Reality Labs remain closely watched, as the company continues to invest heavily in these emerging technologies with the hope of turning these losses into growth and profitability down the line.
