Levi & Korsinsky has initiated a class action securities lawsuit against Snap Inc., alleging that the company made materially false and misleading statements to investors regarding its advertising revenue growth rate. The complaint states that Snap Inc.'s advertising revenue growth significantly declined from 9% in the first quarter to only 1% in April, a fact allegedly concealed from investors. On August 5, 2025, Snap Inc. announced its Q2 2025 financial results, revealing a deceleration in advertising revenue growth, which it attributed to issues with its ad platform, the timing of Ramadan, and de minimis changes. Following this announcement, Snap Inc.'s stock price dropped by approximately 17.15% in a single day. Investors who suffered losses during the period of April 29, 2025, to August 5, 2025, have until October 20, 2025, to request to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit filed in the United States — United States District Court for the Northern District of California.
