The social networking site Facebook said Tuesday it reached a financial milestone by winning more money than it spent in the last quarter, a goal he did not plan to meet next year although the company is worth billions of dollars .
The company achieved a "positive value of cash flow" during the second quarter ended in June, wrote the founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg in a Facebook blog site.
"This is important for us as Facebook prepares to be an independent strong long-term," he said.
The novelty does not mean that Facebook is profitable as measured by commonly used standard most companies. Cash remaining after the costs covered could be eaten by other costs such as taxes, debt payments and accounting expenses.
Zuckerberg did not say whether Facebook is about to file an IPO in the bag.
The company raised more than $ 600 million from investors since its founding five years ago. The latest shot came from the internet investment fund Digital Sky Technologies Russian, who bought 2% of the company for 200 million dollars, so that their total value came to 10.000 million.
Zuckerberg also said that Facebook already has 300 million users worldwide
