What is the primary purpose of this 8-K filing?

The primary purpose of this 8-K filing is to announce Facebook's (now Meta Platforms) financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, and to provide investors with access to the press release and conference call where these results will be discussed.

Where can I find the detailed financial results for Q2 2015?

The detailed financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, are available in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K filing.
