In May 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement for the sale of an aggregate of $750.0 million principal amount of convertible senior notes due in 2030.

We calculate average DAUs for a particular quarter by adding the number of DAUs on each day of that quarter and dividing that sum by the number of days in that quarter. DAUs are broken out by geography because markets have different characteristics. We had 422 million DAUs on average in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 39 million, or 10%, from the first quarter of 2023.

We measure our business using ARPU because it helps us understand the rate at which we are monetizing our daily user base. ARPU was $2.83 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $2.58 in the first quarter of 2023. For purposes of calculating ARPU, revenue by user geography is apportioned to each region based on a determination of the geographic location in which advertising impressions are delivered, as this approximates revenue based on user activity. This differs from the presentation of our revenue by geography in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, where revenue is based on the billing address of the advertising customer.

Previous wording
