Snap Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) has filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit brought by New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez. The lawsuit alleges that the company&#8217;s platform <a href="https://values.snap.com/news/new-mexico-motion-to-dismiss?lang=da-DK" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">facilitates child exploitation</a>. 
Snap argues that the lawsuit misrepresents its practices and is based on flawed interpretations of internal documents and investigatory actions.
The lawsuit claims that Snap violated state laws by promoting unsafe practices through features like disappearing messages, which allegedly enable the spread of exploitative material.

However, Snap contends that the Attorney General&#8217;s office created a decoy account that proactively engaged with inappropriate accounts, contrary to the lawsuit&#8217;s claims, the Verge <a target="_blank" href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/21/24302767/snap-new-mexico-attorney-general-motion-dismiss-child-exploitation" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Snap insists the investigation&#8217;s findings are inaccurate and highlights that federal law prohibits storing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on its servers. The company maintains that it reports such content to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, as required by law, and that the Attorney General&#8217;s framing of its practices is misleading.
The New Mexico Department of Justice criticized Snap&#8217;s motion to dismiss, accusing the company of deflecting attention from the harm caused to children on its platform. 
A spokesperson stated, &#8220;The evidence—including Snap&#8217;s internal documents—proves the company prioritizes profits over safety.&#8221; The department emphasized the urgent need for stricter safeguards to protect young users.
Snap argues that the lawsuit conflicts with federal protections under Section 230, which shields platforms from liability for user-generated content. The company also contends that proposed age-verification mandates could violate the First Amendment. Snap describes its safety-related statements as aspirational and not legally binding guarantees of risk elimination.

Snap posted a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41612544/snap-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-500m-buyback-ai-update-and-more" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter revenue</a> of $1.373 billion, exceeding the $1.358 billion consensus estimate. Adjusted earnings reached 8 cents per share, beating the 5-cent analyst estimate. Revenue increased 15%, while daily active users grew 9% to 443 million. The company reported $116 million in operating cash flow and $72 million in free cash flow. 
The quarter ended with $3.2 billion in liquidity. Snap forecasts fourth-quarter revenue of $1.51 billion—$1.56 billion, slightly below the $1.558 billion analyst estimate. The board approved a share buyback of up to $500 million.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $142.32, after a 2.45% increase. Over the past month, Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) stock increased by 15.96%, and in the past year, by 90.85%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732289408_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Dell Technologies P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 32.64 in the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry, Dell Technologies Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 25.58. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732289408_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

A poll of Benzinga readers found that they don't believe Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) should be broken up. This comes as the Department of Justice (DOJ) suggested divesting the Chrome browser to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42105079/googles-unlawful-behavior-stifles-market-entry-for-rivals-doj-says-alphabet-must-sell-chrome-to-end-search-monopoly">break a search monopoly.</a>
What Happened: Google parent Alphabet has long <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/21/07/22094354/could-new-justice-department-hire-lead-to-google-breakup">been a target</a> of potential antitrust investigations due to the company's large market share in online search.
The DOJ recommended that Google share search data with competitors to foster fair competition. The department also said Google should consider selling its Android operating system.
"Google's unlawful behavior has deprived rivals not only of critical distribution channels but also distribution partners who could otherwise enable entry into these markets by competitors in new and innovative ways," the DOJ&nbsp;said in a statement.
A recent poll of Benzinga readers found that they don't believe Alphabet should be split up.
"Should the Department of Justice break up Alphabet (Google)?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>Yes: 36%</li>
<li>No: 64%</li>
</ul>
While the DOJ is targeting Chrome as the potential unit to be divested, Benzinga readers have other preferences.
"Which part of Alphabet would you most want to invest in if it splits up," Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>YouTube: 43%</li>
<li>Google Search: 31%</li>
<li>Android: 17%</li>
<li>Chrome: 9%</li>
</ul>
Benzinga readers ranked YouTube as the top choice for a standalone unit, while Chrome was the least favored.

Why It's Important: While Alphabet likely does not want to split up or sell any of its units, investors could end up the winners <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40378964/google-stock-swings-on-doj-investigation-analyst-says-googl-is-worth-more-in-pieces">according to analysts.</a>
Jefferies analyst Brent Thill recently said that a breakup or business separation could be good for shareholders.
&#8220;We don&#8217;t believe a full breakup would happen. Even if it did, it would be good for shareholders because the sum of the parts is greater than the whole,&#8221; Thill&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/YahooFinance/status/1823722376716280107" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">told&nbsp;</a>Yahoo Finance.
Needham analyst Laura Martin has been emphasizing for months that a forced breakup of Alphabet could lead to a significantly higher valuation.
&#8220;We believe that GOOGL is worth more in pieces than together, so we welcome regulators&#8217; attempts to break up GOOGL,&#8221; Martin said in a new investor note.
A break-up could put a spotlight on the valuation of video platform YouTube, Martin said.
&#8220;We calculate that YouTube would be valued between $455B-$643B if separately traded.&#8221;
Martin said Alphabet shares would likely trade higher if the company breaks up because investors would be willing to pay more for &#8220;pure-play assets,&#8221; more data points could be publicly shared, and employees would receive shares in business lines they directly impact.
Martin has a Buy rating on Alphabet and price target of $210.
GOOG Price Action: Alphabet stock trades at $167.81 Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $129.40 to $193.31. Alphabet stock is up 21.3% year-to-date, trailing the 25.6% gain of the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust, which tracks the S&amp;P 500.
