Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP) Investigation:

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether Snap may have misled investors about its ability to capture increased ad spending,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm’s investigation.

On Feb. 6, 2024, one day after announcing it would reduce its job force by 10%, Snap reported disappointing Q4 and FY 2023 financial results and disappointing guidance for its March quarter, again unable to prove that it can be profitable on a GAAP basis. Quarterly revenues came in at about $1.36 billion, just a 5% year-over-year increase and missing analysts’ consensus. While the company said that its daily active user base grew 10% year-over-year to 414 million, that rate decelerated from prior quarters.

The financial press observed that Snap continued to struggle in the ad market, unlike its larger peers, which could show that advertisers may be giving up on Snapchat. One analyst reportedly observed “‘Snap has failed to show the market its ability to capitalize on resilient ad spending across different parts of the economy.’”

This news drove the price of Snap shares crashing as much as $6.21 lower, or down about 35%, during intraday trading on Feb. 7, 2024, wiping out over $8 billion in shareholder value. The news was also accompanied by several analysts’ price target cuts.
