“We really want to emphasize the difference between losing money and investing money,” [CFO] said on Wednesday. “You can lose money or you can invest money. At the end of this quarter, we have these cash flow-generating assets.” https://t.co/hI7aQy9y6T

WeWork changed its definition of 'enterprise' customers, who now are 40% of sales under the new definition https://t.co/Ac7We4N2M5
And it stopped reporting occupancy, which was down to 80% as of the 4th quarter https://t.co/3009xTjfxY
in its Q1 quasi-earnings report, WeWork quietly changed the definition of "enterprise" members to mean from companies with >500 employees instead of >1000

surprise: its % of enterprise members in 2018 is now 37% instead of 32%, and now it's 40% for Q1 https://t.co/ukgD4UcBXF
