#TWITTER #IPO. "Keeping its IPO filing secret until the last minute could help Twitter avoid the overheated anticipation that Facebook had to deal with ahead of its disastrous IPO. It could keep its financial details away from rivals for a few extra months, as it grows a mobile advertising business that might compete with Facebook’s or LinkedIn’s. And if Twitter would rather keep some of its early history under wraps, it could avoid an outside audit and submit just two years of financial statements, as opposed to the customary five."
