The Tesla chief is poised to acquire the social media platform for $44 billion
American billionaire Elon Musk, the founder of electric car-making company Tesla and spacecraft manufacturing company SpaceX, intends to quintuple Twitter’s annual revenue to $26.4 billion by 2028, media reported on Saturday.
The New York Times cited Musk’s pitch deck presented to investors as saying that he would quintuple Twitter’s revenue to $26.4 billion by 2028, up from $5 billion in 2021.
Musk also intends to cut Twitter’s reliance on advertising to 45 per cent of total revenue, saying that in 2028 advertising would generate $12 billion in revenue and subscriptions some $10 billion. Other revenue would be generated from different businesses, such as data licensing, tipping, and shopping, according to the document.
The billionaire also expects to increase average revenue per user to $30.22 in 2028, reaching 931 million users, have 104 million subscribers for a new unannounced product, which Musk called product X, and hire additional 3,600 employees.
