Exhibit 99.1
Twitter Q4 and Fiscal Year 2021 Shareholder Letter
San Francisco, CA
February 10, 2022

Except as otherwise stated, all financial results discussed below are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. As supplemental information, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures in this letter’s supplemental tables, and such supplemental tables include a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to our GAAP results. All growth rates referenced below are year over year unless otherwise indicated. The sum of individual metrics may not always equal total amounts indicated due to rounding.

Highlights
•We made meaningful progress in 2021 against our 2023 goals: doubling development velocity by the end of 2023, delivering at least 315 million mDAU in Q4’23, and delivering $7.5 billion or more in revenue for the full year of 2023.

•Q4 revenue reached $1.57 billion, with ad revenue of $1.41 billion, both up 22% year over year, driven by ongoing revenue product improvements, solid sales execution, and a broad, continued increase in advertiser demand.

•Average monetizable DAU (mDAU)(1) reached 217 million, up 13% year over year, driven by product improvements, as well as global conversation around current events.

•In 2022, we expect full-year revenue to grow in the low to mid 20% range vs. 2021, excluding MoPub and MoPub Acquire(2), with performance ad revenue growing faster than brand, and mDAU growth accelerating in the US and International markets over the course of the year.

•Twitter’s Board of Directors has approved a new $4 billion share repurchase authorization. We intend to enter into a $2 billion accelerated share repurchase (ASR) and repurchase the remaining $2 billion over time.

We made meaningful progress in 2021 against our 2023 goals: doubling development velocity by the end of 2023, delivering at least 315 million mDAU in Q4’23, and delivering $7.5 billion or more in revenue for the full year of 2023.

In 2021, we increased development velocity across consumer and revenue products with significant investments in data and machine learning (ML), including initial steps towards migrating our ML systems to the Google Cloud Platform. We also made progress on our consumer product roadmap, with the addition of 25 million mDAU over the course of the year and significant improvements in important lead indicators for future mDAU growth, including a more than 25% year-over-year increase in the number of people who come to Twitter every day to either create a new account or reactivate an existing account,(3) and a 35% year-over-year increase in daily sign-ups. We also increased revenue by 37% year over year in 2021, surpassing $5 billion in annual revenue, with meaningful revenue product improvements across Brand, direct response (DR), commerce, and small and medium-sized businesses (SMB).




_________________________
(1) We are updating our mDAU definition in Q4'21 to also include "paid Twitter products, including subscriptions", so this key metric continues to accurately reflect our audience as our products evolve. This change had no material impact on the number of mDAU reported in the fourth quarter of 2021, and is unlikely to do so in the near future. This change is effective for the fourth quarter of 2021 and for future periods, and it did not affect prior periods.
(2) In December 2021, we completed the wind down of MoPub Acquire (formerly known as CrossInstall) and on January 1, 2022, we closed the sale of MoPub to AppLovin. Note that full year revenue in 2022 is expected to grow in the 15-20% range, when including MoPub and MoPub Acquire revenue in FY21.
