San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/28/2019 -- The Shareholders Foundation announces that an investor, who purchased shares of Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP), filed a lawsuit over alleged Securities Laws violations by Snap Inc in connection with certain allegedly false and misleading statements made between March 2, 2017 and May 15, 2017.

According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of investors, who purchased Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) securities or otherwise acquired Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) securities pursuant and/or traceable to Snap's initial public offering on or about March 2, 2017 (the "IPO" or the "Offering"), and/or on the open market between March 2, 2017 and May 15, 2017, that the defendants violated Federal Securities Laws.

More specifically, the plaintiff claims that the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Snap's reported user growth was materially false and misleading, and that as a result, Snap's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

Snap Inc., formerly Snapchat, Inc., went public in March 2017 and sold 200 million shares of stock in its initial public stock offering (the "IPO"), raising $3.4 billion in new capital. Snap's stock reached as a high of $29.44 on March 3, 2017

On May 10, 2017 Snap Inc reported its first quarter 2017 results and revealed a massive quarterly loss of $2.2 billion. Snap Inc realized an enormous amount of stock-based compensation to employees which accounted for nearly $2 billion of that total. However, even after subtracting stock-based compensation, Snap Inc still lost more money than expected in the first quarter. The Company reported an adjusted EBITDA loss of $188.2 million, more than its revenue total and higher than the average analyst estimate of $180.7 million loss. Snap Inc's Q1 revenue was $149.6 million lower than the $158 million analyst consensus estimate.
