Snap shares plummeted more than 25% in extended trading on Thursday after the social media company reported weaker-than-expected revenue for the third quarter. In August, Snap announced that it would lay off 20% of the company's roughly 6,000 employees as part of a major restructuring plan. Snap added that revenue growth is likely to keep decelerating in the fourth quarter, as that period "has historically been relatively more dependent on brand-oriented advertising revenue," which declined in the latest period. Snap also ended the production of its Snap Originals premium shows. Snap debuted the subscription service in June as a way for users to access exclusive and pre-release features for $3.99 a month.
