Source: Meta says about 10% of its global ad revenue at risk from EU data flows order

Summary
Meta, previously known as Facebook, has warned of regulatory risk in Europe, which may lead to suspension of transatlantic data flows. A decision expected by May 12 may see the company being fined for violating EU and EEA user data transatlantic data transfers. Meta is optimistic about the proposed EU-US data transfer agreement but also warned the investors of an estimated 10% drop in its worldwide ad revenue if the new system is not implemented before its deadline.

Fact

  • 📉 Meta faces reduced revenues if EU suspends US data flows: CFO Susan Li warns of around a 10% drop in Meta’s worldwide ad revenue, saying that roughly 10% of this comes from ads displayed to EU Facebook users.
  • 🇪🇺🇺🇸 EU frameworks may not be implemented in time to prevent suspension: The delay in negotiating the replacement data transfer pact between the EU and the US has caused concern for Meta, which is hoping for a timely implementation of the deal before its suspension deadline.
  • 🤝 A replacement data transfer pact is in the works: The proposed high-level data transfer pact aims to resolve legal uncertainties around EU data exports. It is expected to be adopted in the coming weeks but also faces concerns and challenges from EU institutions.
