Facebook also allured businesses to obtain the advantage of a new tool for generating ads for Messenger, which it said is used by more than 1.2 billion people monthly. The budge also assured Facebook an even larger bite of the digital advertising revenue pie.

The Facebook quarterly profit in the first three months of this year heave as its ranks of monthly users swelled, but the firm advised of increasing expenses and slowing revenue expansion.
