In its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Snap represents that it generates substantially all of its revenues from advertising on Snapchat and that it monetizes its business primarily through advertising based on its user data. In June 2020, Apple Inc. ("Apple"), which developed and maintains the popular mobile operating system, iOS, for its mobile devices, announced heightened data privacy features for iOS.
According to a recently filed lawsuit, following Apple's announcement, Snap continuously downplayed the impact on its business of these new data privacy features would have on its business. In April 2021, Apple released the new data privacy features for iOS.
On October 22, 2021, Snap reported its Q3 2021 financials, disclosing weaker-than-expected revenue and guidance due to the impact on its advertising business of Apple's new privacy features. According to CEO Evan Spiegel, "the new Apple-provided measurement solution did not scale as we had expected, making it more difficult for our advertising partners to measure and manage their ad campaigns for iOS."
In response to this news, Snap's stock price fell $19.97 per share, or 26%, to close at $55.14 per share on October 22, 2021.
