Fox Business Reports Snap Issues Statement On Utah Lawsuit, Says ".. Now, Unable To Accept The Court's Rejection Of The State's Legislation, The Utah Attorney General Is Resorting To Civil Litigation..."

Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) filed a lawsuit in California last week, accusing former senior design engineer Di Liu of stealing confidential company information before<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46207800/whats-going-on-with-snap-shares-today"> leaving to work at </a>Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>).&nbsp;
The Details: Apple alleged that Liu downloaded thousands of sensitive files and stored them in his personal cloud accounts during his final days at the company, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/01/apple-lawsuit-trade-secrets-di-liu-snap.html">CNBC</a>.&nbsp;
Liu, who worked on the Vision Pro headset, reportedly did not disclose that he was joining Snap, a competitor in the smart glasses market, when he resigned late last year.&nbsp;

As a result, Apple granted him the standard two-week transition period, during which he allegedly accessed and copied proprietary files.
Apple's legal team stated that Liu used his company credentials to transfer documents containing project code names, technical details, product designs, and supply chain information.&nbsp;
Apple also suggested that the information Liu took could benefit Snap's augmented reality products, though Apple did not take legal action against Snap itself.
Snap responded by saying they found no evidence that the allegations related to Liu's work at their company. Apple sought damages and requested a forensic review of Liu's devices to ensure all sensitive data was deleted.&nbsp;
Why It Matters: Snap<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45893545/snapchat-parent-to-launch-light-weight-ar-smart-glasses-to-compete-with-meta-apple"> recently announced</a> that it will launch Specs, a pair of lightweight, immersive AR glasses, in 2026.&nbsp;
Specs are described as an ultra-powerful wearable computer built into a lightweight glasses frame, featuring see-through lenses that blend digital experiences with the physical world.
In related industry news, Meta is reportedly preparing to launch a new version of its smart glasses, priced between $1,000 and $1,400, featuring a built-in screen and hand-gesture controls, as competition intensifies with Apple's $3,500 Vision Pro.

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Experts in banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their comprehensive research involves attending company conference calls and meetings, analyzing financial statements, and engaging with insiders to generate what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts will also offer forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide further guidance on stocks. Investors who use analyst ratings should note that this specialized advice comes from humans and may be subject to error.

What 22 Analyst Ratings Have To Say About Snap

Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) shares are trading higher on Tuesday after Wells Fargo raised its price target on the stock from $8 to $11, citing stronger-than-expected revenue growth in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/25/06/46038952/snap-just-bought-a-student-calendar-app-how-it-could-reinvent-snapchat">a stabilizing ad market. </a>
What To Know: The firm now expects second-quarter revenue to increase 13% year-over-year, up from a prior estimate of 6% and above the consensus forecast of 8%. Wells Fargo also sees subscription revenue reaching $165 million and forecasts $76 million in EBITDA for the quarter, nearly double the street estimate, <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/analyst-ratings/snap-stock-price-target-raised-to-11-from-8-at-wells-fargo-on-ad-growth-93CH-4118881">according to Investing.com.</a>
The bank highlighted growing optimism around the Sponsored Snaps feature, which monetizes the chat interface and could generate $400 million in revenue by 2027, with $20 million projected this quarter alone. 
While domestic user engagement continues to decline, daily active users in the U.S. and Canada are down 4%, international markets remain stable, growing 8% annually.
Snap has also made headlines with its upcoming public release of new AR glasses, Specs, in 2026, along with enhancements to its Snap OS operating system that integrate OpenAI and Google Cloud tools for AI-powered development. 
Additional analyst updates were mixed: Loop Capital cut its price target to $12 from $16 but maintained a Buy rating, and Benchmark reiterated its Hold rating while noting recent improvements in ad targeting tech and an expanding advertiser base.
The broader competitive landscape may also be helping Snap. 
TikTok, a key rival, is facing scrutiny from EU regulators for potential violations of the Digital Services Act and a $600 million privacy-related fine. The regulatory pressure on TikTok may indirectly benefit Snap's ad business as marketers reconsider platform risk.
SNAP Price Action: Snapchat shares closed up 7.59% at $9.35 at publication on Tuesday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>
