Following the announcement of Twitter's results, Eden Zoller, principal analyst at Ovum provides the following comment:
"Twitter's 1Q14 results saw a repeat of the key take outs from the previous quarter - increased revenues but slowing growth in Twitter's user base. Monthly active users (MAUs) increased by 25% y-o-y to 255 million in 1Q14, compared with a 30% y-o-y increase in 4Q13. Engagement metrics were also sluggish, with timeline views increasing 15% y-o-y in 1Q14, compared with a 26% y-o-y increase for 4Q13. This is disappointing and shows that Twitter's efforts to improve the platform and the user experience have aii smuj mne kvkvlp.
