SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A securities class action lawsuit has been initiated against Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP) and certain senior executives. The complaint alleges the company presented a misleading picture of its digital advertising platform's performance and future growth prospects to investors. The lawsuit covers investors who purchased shares between April 29, 2025, and August 5, 2025. This legal action follows a steep drop in Snap's stock price after the company released its second-quarter financial results.

(SNAP) Securities Class Action: The lawsuit, which seeks to hold the company accountable for investor losses, centers on claims that Snap gave false assurances about the effectiveness and growth potential of its advertising platform. The complaint alleges the company experienced significant negative consequences from a major “execution error” related to a recent change in its ad platform but failed to disclose this crucial information to investors throughout the Class Period. The alleged deception came to light on August 5, 2025, when Snap reported its Q2 2025 results. The company not only missed analyst estimates for its GAAP EPS but also admitted that in an effort to improve advertiser performance, it “shipped a change that caused some campaigns to clear the auction at substantially reduced prices”. This admission confirmed a significant slowdown in ad revenue growth, which had decelerated from 9% in Q1 to just 1% in April. News of the failure caused Snap’s stock price to tumble by approximately 17% the following day. Hagens Berman’s Investigation on Behalf of Investors Hagens Berman, a global plaintiffs’ rights law firm, is actively investigating the alleged claims and urges investors who suffered substantial losses to come forward. “We’re investigating if the company knew about this major ‘execution error’ and the corresponding deceleration in revenue growth but chose to delay disclosure, thereby misleading the market,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
