Twitter’s Irish arm records a loss

Twitter’s Irish-based operation recorded a loss last year, as its cost base increased sharply following moves to double its workforce in Dublin.

A three-page auditor’s report filed to the Companies Office by PWC, on behalf of Twitter International Company, confirms that the firm recorded the loss in the 12 months to the end of December last. However, the extent of the loss isn’t revealed as Twitter’s company status here is unlimited.

Twitter is one of the highest profile US multinationals to have unlimited status in Ireland along with Apple, LinkedIn and Medtronic.
