Snapchat’s Daily Users Increase in Q4, But So Does Snap Inc.’s Net Loss

A $187.5 million settlement of a class-action suit was a major factor

Snapchat continued to add daily active users during the fourth quarter of 2019, but parent company Snap Inc. was still in the red for the quarter, posting a net loss of $241 million.

Snap reported $561 million in revenue for the quarter, up 44% year-over-year. However, the company’s net loss was $49 million higher than in the fourth quarter of 2018, due largely to a $187.5 million settlement of a class-action suit by investors following its initial public offering in March 2017.
