Snap

Snap is a technology company best known for its marquis social media application Snapchat, a visual messaging application that has amassed hundreds of millions of users. The app was initially only used to communicate with family and friends through photographs and short videos (known as "Snaps"). Users can now enjoy augmented reality, or AR, lenses, content from famous creators and celebrities, updates about local events, and more. Although the app offers a paid subscription option with premium features, advertising sales produce most of the app's revenue. The firm also sells wearable devices called AR Spectacles, which can capture photos and videos overlayed with AR lenses, but these make up a small portion of Snap's overall sales.

Snap's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

TikTok, the Chinese short video platform, has reappeared on the&nbsp;Apple&nbsp;and&nbsp;Google&nbsp;app stores following a month-long hiatus.
What Happened: TikTok officially announced that the app was restored to the app stores of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) on Thursday evening. The app was taken down on Jan 18, in response to TikTok&#8217;s decision to temporarily halt its services in the U.S. due to a new national security law.
The Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, signed by former President Joe Biden in April, mandated that China-based ByteDance sell its U.S. TikTok operations by Jan 19 or risk a ban. The law also warned about strict penalties on internet service providers such as Apple, Google, and Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NASDAQ">ORCL</a>).
TikTok shut down its U.S. operations, arguing that the law infringed on the First Amendment rights of its 170 million American users. In January, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Biden administration, asserting that divestiture was required due to national security concerns over TikTok&#8217;s data collection practices and its Chinese connections.
The app resumed operations after President Donald Trump postponed the ban&#8217;s enforcement and extended the law&#8217;s deadline by 75 days. 
Apple and Google made the app available in their app store once they received a confirmation letter from US Attorney General&nbsp;Pam Bondi that the ban would not be enforced immediately, reported <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-14/apple-to-restore-tiktok-to-us-app-store-following-justice-department-letter">Bloomberg</a>.

Why It Matters: Despite its absence from the&nbsp;app stores for almost a&nbsp;month, TikTok had regained about 90% of its pre-law traffic by late January, according to data from Cloudflare Radar.
The return of TikTok to the app stores comes after a series of events that unfolded in the past month. Trump stated his preference for the U.S. to hold a 50% stake in a joint venture to &#8220;save TikTok.&#8221; Vice President J.D. Vance and National Security Adviser&nbsp;Michael Waltz have been appointed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43604572/jd-vance-quarterbacking-tiktok-deal-will-his-venture-capital-experience-secure-a-win">oversee a deal to save TikTok</a>. 
Meanwhile, Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43585669/elon-musk-shuts-down-tiktok-buyout-rumors-says-he-prefers-to-build-companies-from-scratch-i-rarely-acquire-companies">publicly dismissed the idea of acquiring TikTok</a>, stating his preference for building companies from scratch. His comments were made in late January, around the same time President Trump signed an executive order to postpone the enforcement of a ban on TikTok.
According to data from the Sensor Tower in January, with a monthly user base of 115 million in the U.S., TikTok surpasses Snapchat (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>), Pinterest (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PINS#NYSE">PINS</a>), and Reddit (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>). Angelo Zino, Senior Vice President of CFRA Research estimated the valuation of TikTok&#8217;s US operations between $40 billion to $50 billion.

Trading in Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/offerings/25/02/43593686/whats-going-on-with-snap-stock-monday-2">is quiet Tuesday</a>. The shares have been holding above-important support around $10.40. But there is a good chance the support breaks and the price falls.
The company&#8217;s stock chart shows some characteristics of a classic ‘Head &amp; Shoulders Pattern'. This is why our team of technical analysts has made Snap our <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>.
Many analysts don't understand the fundamentals and basics of technical analysis. They try to identify patterns on charts without understanding the price action that causes them to form.
It's rare to see a precise or ‘textbook' pattern on a chart. But that isn't important. What is, is that an analyst understands price action and psychology that is occurring.
A Head and Shoulders is a ‘reversal pattern'. This means at has to occur and the end of an uptrend. It shows the bears are taking the leadership from the bulls.

One thing that happens when the bears are taking over is that ‘lower highs' form. Markets don't go in straight lines. They go in peaks and valleys. When a peak forms at a lower price level than the previous peak did, traders say it is a lower high.
This means that as time passes, sellers are willing to come into the market at lower levels. This is why the ‘right shoulder' forms at a lower price than the ‘head' does in a Head &amp; Shoulders.
As you can see on the chart below, Snap&#8217;s last two peaks occurred at lower levels than the peak that would be considered the Head did in December. This shows that since then, people who want to sell are getting anxious and are willing to accept less for their shares.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="552" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/11140021/115-1024x552.png" alt="" class="wp-image-777202" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/11140021/115-1024x552.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/11140021/115-300x162.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/11140021/115-768x414.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/11140021/115.png 1522w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Now the stock is testing support around the $10.40 level. Because sellers have become increasingly aggressive while the buyers have been willing to be patient and hang out around the support level mean there is a good chance it breaks.
Aggressive sellers and patient buyers is typically bearish for a market.

Stock Of The Day: Does Classic Head & Shoulders Pattern Mean Snap Goes Lower?

Snap Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) shares are trading slightly lower Monday after the company announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SNAP">a private offering</a>.
What Happened: Before the market open on Monday, Snap announced that it intends to offer $700 million of senior notes due 2033 in a private offering. 
Snap expects to use the net proceeds to repurchase some of its outstanding convertible senior notes due 2025,&nbsp;due 2026, due 2027 and due 2028. Any remaining proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. 
The offering comes after Snap shares surged last week on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/02/43480179/snap-stock-soars-after-q4-eps-revenues-beat-details">strong results for the fourth quarter</a>. The company beat analyst estimates on the top and bottom lines as daily active users increased 9% on a year-over-year basis. Snap also said it expects first-quarter revenue to be in the range of $1.325 billion to $1.36 billion
"As we look ahead to 2025, we see additional opportunities to invest productively in scaling our business given the foundational improvements we have made to our ad platform and the momentum we have established in our go to market initiatives,&#8221; the company said in a letter to shareholders.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Is SNAP A Good Stock To Buy?</h3>
Wall Street analysts view Snap on the whole as a Neutral, given the history of coverage over the past three months. Ken Gawrelski from Wells Fargo in Snap is the most bearish, expecting a 26.67% fall in the stock in the coming year.
But looking at how the market as a whole thinks of the stock, you can reference historical price action for views on whether investors feel strongly about the stock one way or another. In the past three months, Snap fell 3.19%, which indicates that opinion soured on the business and how attractive it is to own based on either its stock price, or underlying fundamentals, like revenue, which rose 14.4% over the past year.

Spotlight on Snap: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

Snap Inc&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) CEO, Evan Spiegel, has taken a playful jab at Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) for its history of mimicking Snapchat&#8217;s features in a way that seems to mock the social media giant.
What Happened: Spiegel updated his LinkedIn profile that now read, &#8220;Loving husband, father of four boys, VP Product @ Meta,&#8221; indicates a Fortune <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/02/06/snap-ceo-evan-spiegel-mocks-mark-zuckerberg-meta-copycat-features/">report</a>. This update is widely interpreted as a swipe at Meta&#8217;s penchant for copying Snapchat&#8217;s features.
Despite Mark Zuckerberg&#8216;s&nbsp;$3 billion acquisition offer in&nbsp;2013, Spiegel has staunchly upheld Snap&#8217;s independence. Meta, in turn, has launched features remarkably similar to Snapchat&#8217;s, including Instagram Stories, disappearing direct messages, and face-distorting filters.
Spiegel, in a 2018 conference, shared mixed feelings about Meta&#8217;s imitation, stating, &#8220;It was the best feeling to design something that is so simple and so elegant that the only thing competitors can do is copy it exactly.&#8221; 
He also humorously suggested that Meta should replicate Snapchat&#8217;s data protection practices.

Why It Matters: A CNBC report in Jan indicated that Meta is providing incentives to creators to advertise Instagram on competing short-form video platforms like TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube to gain a larger share. This move highlights the intense competition in the social media space, as platforms battle for the attention of millions of users while TikTok&#8217;s future remains uncertain.
Meanwhile, Snap has been grappling with its own challenges. Despite reporting a fourth-quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43504595/snap-falls-despite-q4-beat-as-analysts-remain-cautious-on-ad-growth-and-higher-expenses">earnings beat</a>, Snap&#8217;s shares fell as analysts expressed concerns over ad growth and higher expenses.
Last week, Meta announced its fourth-quarter results, surpassing expectations for both revenue and earnings, while reaffirming its commitment to significant AI-related investments.
Snap has a much smaller user base when compared to Meta, but it has posted impressive growth for the fourth quarter. Meta&#8217;s Family Daily Active People (DAP)&nbsp;grew 5.5% year-on-year to 3.35 billion, while Snap&#8217;s Daily Active Users increased 9% year-over-year to 453 million.

Punchbowl News Reported President Trump Tasked VP Vance And National Security Adviser Waltz With Overseeing A Potential Sale Of TikTok

Wall Street rose on Wednesday, with all major equity indices advancing as investors assessed the latest batch of corporate earnings and drew optimism from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43494246/private-employment-rises-by-183000-beats-estimates-in-january-consumer-facing-industries-drove-hiring">positive labor market data.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 gained 0.3% to 6,045 points, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.6%, now trading less than 1% below its all-time high.
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) missed quarterly earnings expectations on its cloud business, triggering a 7% drop, its worst single-day decline in a year. On the upside, Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) surged 6% after beating estimates, fueling a rally in chip stocks. Nvidia Corp.

The Russell 2000 outperformed with a 0.9% gain, reflecting strength in smaller-cap stocks.
Fresh labor market data signaled resilience. Private sector employment rose by 183,000 in January according to the ADP report, surpassing expectations of 150,000. The services sector continued expanding,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43499292/us-services-growth-slows-in-january-as-tariff-concerns-mount"> as per ISM survey</a>, though at a slightly slower-than-anticipated pace.
Investors piled into Treasuries, sending yields tumbling across the curve. The 30-year yield fell to its lowest level since Dec. 18, 2024, while the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) rallied 1.9%.
Gold extended its bull run, surging over 1% to a record $2,870 per ounce, driven by continued central bank buying. Copper jumped 2%. 
In crypto markets, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged down 1.2% to $97,000.

Stocks Rebound, Google Eyes Worst Drop In A Year, Gold Shatters Fresh Records: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) shares are moving lower Wednesday after the company reported its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/02/43480179/snap-stock-soars-after-q4-eps-revenues-beat-details">fourth-quarter financial results</a>. The stock initially rose after the report but reversed course following a downgrade from Wells Fargo.
What To Know: Snap reported earnings of 16 cents per share, beating the analyst consensus estimate of 14 cents. Revenue came in at $1.55 billion, slightly above the $1.54 billion estimate and up from $1.36 billion in the same quarter last year. Snapchat&#8217;s daily active users grew 9% year-over-year to 453 million, with over one billion Snaps shared publicly each month. CEO Evan Spiegel highlighted the company's progress in growing its user base and improving advertiser performance, with active advertisers more than doubling in the quarter.
Despite the earnings beat, Wells Fargo downgraded Snap from Overweight to Equal-Weight and cut its price target from $15 to $11. Other analysts issued mixed reactions. BofA Securities and Citigroup raised their price targets slightly to $14.50 and $13.50, respectively, while JPMorgan lowered its target from $11 to $10. Susquehanna maintained a Neutral rating but raised its target to $13.
Following the earnings release, Snap shares initially surged 12.16% after hours to $13.01. However, by Wednesday, the stock was down as the market reacted to the downgrade and analyst revisions.
SNAP Price Action: Snap shares were down 7.00% at $10.77 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Snap Stock Drops Following Q4 Results And Analyst Downgrade: What's Going On?

Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) shares are trading lower following fourth-quarter financial results reported on Tuesday and several analysts <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/snap/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">revised the price forecast</a>.
Snap reported quarterly earnings of&nbsp;16&nbsp;cents per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of&nbsp;14 cents. Quarterly revenue came in at $1.55 billion,&nbsp;which beat the analyst <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/02/43480179/snap-stock-soars-after-q4-eps-revenues-beat-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of&nbsp;$1.54 billion</a>.
BofA Securities analyst Justin Post maintained the stock with a Neutral and raised the price forecast from $14 to $14.5.
The analyst remains cautious on first-quarter comps but raised revenue estimates due to stronger ad growth and Snapchat+ traction. Expense estimates, including SBC, increased for higher headcount and legal costs.
For 2025, Post raised revenue estimates by 3% to $6.1 billion, operating expenses by 1% and EBITDA by 13% to $789 million.
For 2026, the analyst raised revenue estimates by 5% to $7.0 billion, operating expenses by 4% and EBITDA by 7% to $1.081 billion.
The analyst now projects 11% YoY ad revenue growth over three years, with Snapchat+ helping drive total growth toward the sector average of 14%.
JP Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth maintained an Underweight rating and lowered the price forecast from&nbsp;$11&nbsp;to&nbsp;$10.
The analyst remains encouraged by SNAP&#8217;s efforts to boost engagement, expand DR spending, grow its SMB advertiser base, and diversify revenue.
However, brand spending (~30% of ad revenue) remains under pressure in certain sectors, adds the analyst.
Anmuth writes he looks for better execution under new Chief Business Officer Ajit Mohan, increased contributions from ad initiatives, and improved profitability.
While the analyst raised 2025/2026 revenue estimates by ~1%, he trims adjusted EBITDA estimates by ~20% due to higher investments.
Apart from this, Wells Fargo analyst Ken Gawrelski downgraded Snap from Overweight to Equal-Weight and lowered the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43491978/these-analysts-revise-their-forecasts-on-snap-after-q4-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $15 to $11</a>.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Advisor Managed Portfolios Trenchless Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RVER#NYSE">RVER</a>) and Global X Social Media ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOCL#NASDAQ">SOCL</a>).
Price Action: SNAP shares are down 6.85% at $10.81 at the last check Wednesday.
