The microblogging network priced 70 million shares at $26, above the expected range of $23 to $25, which had already been raised once before.


The IPO values Twitter at $14.1 billion, with the potential to reach $14.4 billion if underwriters exercise an over-allotment option, as they are widely expected to.


Some analysts say they expect shares of Twitter to experience a small pop during the first day of trading. Twelve-month price targets on the stock range from $29 to $54.
