Cordwell acknowledged that there would be near-term uncertainty for Facebook and some damage to revenue. In the longer run, however, Apple’s change to IDFA could strengthen Facebook’s business.</p>\n<p>“The likely degradation in targeting/measurement across the ‘open’ iOS/App Store ecosystem will increase the attractiveness of ‘closed’ content platforms for advertisers and app developers, with Facebook best positioned to capitalize on this given its investments in Shops and (to a lesser extent) Instant Games,” the analyst wrote.</p>\n<p>It’s possible too that advertisers may simply accept a lower return on ad dollars spent because it would be difficult for many big brands and direct-response advertisers to halt spending altogether, Cordwell wrote. Apple’s changes will continue to allow Facebook to collect and use data on its member behavior within the boundaries of the app, suggesting the company will still have useful profiles of its users that can be applied to ad targeting.</p>\n<p>Cordwell is bullish about Facebook for other reasons too. In the note, he wrote the company grew its active advertising base more than 25% in fiscal 2020, while he said its Shops function, which offers e-commerce capability, is likely to drive more revenue in the second half of this year. Instagram’s Reels feature, meanwhile, gives the company exposure to short-form video made popular by services such as Tik Tok, he said. And finally, he said, the company’s virtual- and augmented-reality efforts are often given limited credit, despite the success of the company’s Quest headsets.</p>\n<p>Cordwell rates Facebook stock Overweight, and has a target of $345 for the share price. Facebook shares have gained 34% in the past year, as the S&amp;P 500 index advanced 17%. Facebook closed the regular session Monday down 0.5% to $260.33.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Facebook Stock Is Being Hurt by Apple.
