For those of us that don't have the numbers memorized, does anyone know what the actual numbers are for these predictions?
Things really heated up mid year. Yahoo proposed a $1 billion flat out acquisition price based on a model they created where they projected $608 million in Facebook revenue by 2009, growing to $969 million in 2010. By 2015 Yahoo projects that Facebook would generate nearly $1 billion in annual profit. The actual 2006 number appears to be around $50 million in revenue, or nearly $1 million per week.
These revenue projections are based on robust user growth. By 2010, Yahoo assumes Facebook would hit 48 million users, out of a total combined highschool and young adult population of 83 million
- reso 15y agoFacebook had somewhere around 1.5 billion in revenue in 2010 (http://techcrunch.com/2010/03/03/facebook-revenue-2010/ http://techcrunch.com/2010/03/03/facebook-revenue-2010/) Facebook had 500 million users at the end of 2010. Interesting that they were almost bang-on for revenue, but off by an order of magnitude in users.
