Comment on Musk's $44B Twitter now valued at just $9.4B as X

Comments

Enterprise value != equity value. This is finance 101 and a bit ridiculous for the deputy editor of The Verge to be fucking up.

According to Fidelity, X’s equity is worth ~$10bn. X also has $13bn of debt on which $2bn of losses have been reserved [1]. That implies an enterprise value around $20bn.

That Fidelity gives its X stake a positive value implies it doesn’t believe Twitter will have to play by the standard rulebook when it defaults.
