While you're correct about most of those, Twilio has been an epic loss-making machine its entire existence.
$1.1 billion operating loss the past four quarters on a mere $3.6b in sales. $915m operating loss fiscal 2021, $492m operating loss 2020, $369m operating loss 2019, $108m operating loss (on $650m in sales) for 2018, and so on. They have always lost money and are currently gushing red ink.
It's definitely part of the reason their stock has collapsed in such a dramatic way (a particularly unsupported valuation previously). While even most highly profitable tech stocks have dropped by a lot, Twilio's drop of ~89% is largely reserved for the group of very unprofitable extreme valuation tech stocks.
