Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) can’t seem to catch a break. Whenever shares are on the rebound, some news story tends to shatter the stock.
Case in point, the social media outlet was slapped with a securities class action lawsuit on Tuesday after it was alleged that the company inflated its user growth with false and misleading statements.
Snapchat issued a statement soon after the lawsuit was made public:
“Lawsuits like this are not uncommon and we are focused on growing our business.”
At the time of this writing, Snap shares are down $0.45, or 2.17%, to $20.30. This comes soon after the stock cratered more than 20 percent following a disappointing first-quarter earnings report.
