Twitter Q1 Earnings: $250M Revenue, $0.00 EPS, 255 Million Monthly Active Users [STATS]

Twitter has just reported on its Q1 2014 financial earnings and the numbers have beaten Wall Street estimations almost across the board, except, it appears, where it really mattered: that all-important monthly active users (MAU) number.

Twitter’s revenues for the quarter were $250 million versus analyst expectations of $241.47 million. Meanwhile, it’s earnings per share (EPS) number came in at a flat zero, which beat the negative $0.03 forecast.

So, what about those monthly actives? They’re now at 255 million, up a comforting 14 million since Q4 2013, when the platform posted a quarter-on-quarter MAU gain of just nine million.
