“Twitter deal temporarily on hold pending details supporting calculation that spam/fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users,” Musk tweeted.

During an earnings call this week, Masayoshi Son said the firm’s investments could “be half or…as small as a quarter” in order to achieve more financial balance.

Inflation is still hovering around the 40-year high and may not ease up as quickly as experts had hoped.

Musk expects that he can help boost Twitter’s average revenue per user to $30.22 in 2028, which is an increase from the $24.83 seen last year.

“We were surprised given what we’re hearing about how many employers are requiring workers to come back full time,” said Robin Erickson.

Elon Musk himself has said he would provide the remaining $21 billion in equity, but where it comes from is still unknown.

Twitter’s revenue clocked in at $1.2 billion compared to the expected $1.23 billion based on a survey of analysts at Refinitiv.

The dip in revenue is likely being caused by companies decreasing their ad spending due to growing inflation and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Perhaps as soon as today, Twitter may announce that it has agreed to sell the company to the billionaire for around $43 billion, or $54.20 per share.

On Sunday, the billionaire provided financial details into his $43 billion offer to purchase the company, which appeared attractive to the company’s board.
