Twitter's new boss Elon Musk says it’s losing over $4 million a day — but that’s before accounting for revenue that has evaporated from recent advertiser pullback, explains JMAGuilford:
Twitter generated $5.2 billion in revenue in the four quarters before Musk bought it, but all of that – and then some – was spent on things like engineering salaries and infrastructure. Another $1.2 billion will start to go to interest payments annually, according to U.S. Securities and Exchange CommissionIt gets worse. Advertising revenue across the industrysince Twitter last reported public results. And changes to the platform have driven away advertisers, delivering a “massive” hit.
Musk is axing costs to stay afloat, firing half of Twitter’s workforce and seeking $1 billion in other savings. Assume Musk finds those, research and development falls by half, and other expenses decrease a fifth. If revenue has dropped 30%, Twitter would still need $11 billion in new revenue to break even.Put in context, Musk has a daunting task. Twitter would need to get around 6% of the U.S.
