Twitter released its first quarter earnings report for 2014 on Tuesday, and while the social-media company beat its own earnings and revenue estimates, it failed to meet Wall Street's expectations.
Timeline views, Twitter's preferred metric for engagement, saw a 15% year-over-year growth in the first quarter, according to the report. However, the company reported a larger growth -- 26% year-over-year -- in the fourth quarter of 2013.
The following chart, created by Statista, illustrates how Twitter's year-over-year growth in timeline views has changed since the first quarter of 2012.
