Twitter Ireland turns a profit

Twitter’s Dublin-based operation recorded a profit in its first 15 months in business here.

Twitter was established in Sept 2011 and employs around 100 people. The firm has unlimited status and is not required to file annual accounts. However, an auditor’s report recently filed with the Companies Office confirms that the company recorded a profit in the 15 months to the end of Dec 2012.

The level of profit is not disclosed in the three-page auditor’s report drafted by auditors, PWC.
