TikTok's international revenue surges to $9.1B amid looming European fines

TikTok experienced significant revenue growth in its international operations, reaching $9.1 billion in 2025, a nearly 100% increase from the previous year. This surge in Europe, the United Kingdom, and Latin America was driven by user base expansion and the success of its e-commerce and live streaming features. Despite this financial success, the company is bracing for substantial regulatory fines in Europe, having set aside nearly $1 billion to cover potential penalties related to data privacy violations, including a significant investigation by Ireland's Data Protection Commission.
