The Tesla chief acquired 73,486,938 shares in the social media company on March 14. The purchase immediately made Elon Musk the single largest shareholder of Twitter and raised speculation as to how &#34;passive&#34; the out-spoken billionaire is going to be. While Elon Musk&#39;s ultimate ambition regarding Twitter is not known, the market has been electrified by the acquisition, which could translate to additional valuation gains. Twitter has often been criticized for violating principles of free speech and a more activist role of Elon Musk could result in some positive change on Twitter&#39;s platform.</p><h2><b>Significant free cash flow value</b></h2><p>The acquisition of a 9.2% stake in Twitter has been a strong catalyst for shares of Twitter so far, but the real value of the social media company is its large user base and potential for material advertising revenue and free cash flow growth in the coming years. Twitter&#39;s free cash flow margins decreased in FY 2021, but this is chiefly due to higher capital expenditures and a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-time litigation-related net charge of $766M in the third-quarter. If it wasn&#39;t for the settlement of a shareholder class action lawsuit, Twitter&#39;s free cash flow would have been positive in FY 2021.</p><p>Twitter&#39;s ad business shows a lot of promise as well.
