Snapchat parent company Snap Inc has been riding an absolute rollercoaster over the past week. According to StocksToTrade, the stock jumped 3.53 percent on Monday October thirteenth amid investor excitement over new augmented reality advertising initiatives, but that positive momentum came after a brutal 6.21 percent drop just days earlier on October tenth when legal troubles dominated the headlines.
The legal drama is getting serious. New York City filed a lawsuit against Snapchat alleging the platform is contributing to mental health issues among youth by making social media features deliberately addictive. That wasn't the only legal bomb dropped. Snap is also facing a securities class action lawsuit with investors claiming the company misled them about advertising revenue growth. The allegations center around what happened on August fifth when Snap admitted it shipped a change that caused some campaigns to clear the auction at substantially reduced prices. That confession revealed ad revenue growth had decelerated from 9 percent in Q1 to just 1 percent in April. The stock tanked 17 percent the next day. According to Globe Newswire, investors who purchased shares between April twenty ninth and August fifth and lost over one hundred thousand dollars are being called to lead the legal proceedings. The deadline for lead plaintiff motions is October twentieth.
But it's not all bad news. Wells Fargo recently increased Snap's price target to eight dollars, citing potential opportunities to improve profits and encouraging subscription revenues. The company also launched a WooCommerce integration allowing merchants to build shoppable ads directly inside Snapchat Ads Manager, syncing entire product catalogs with one click.
All eyes are now on November fifth when Snap holds its third quarter 2025 earnings call. Investors are desperate for clarity on the company's financial health after these turbulent months. The company is also planning to release new augmented reality glasses in 2026, though analysts remain skeptical until meaningful improvements materialize.
