This is above the previous range of $23 to $25 per share, and puts it closer to earlier estimates of $28 to $30 per share.

At a price of $27 per share, Twitter would raise around $1.9 billion at a valuation of $14.7 billion.

From TechCrunch:

“A stronger IPO, which would raise more funds for the company, could help it accelerate its revenue growth by providing cash flow flexibility. That said, a larger IPO in terms of dollars raised also raises the specter of a potentially larger fall.”

Twitter will be found under the ticker symbol TWTR, and you can follow our social business section for IPO coverage.
