社交媒体公司Snap在发布第一季度财报时表示，中东地区的地缘政治冲突已对公司的广告业务造成显著冲击。数据显示，仅3月份单月，地缘政治逆风就导致公司营收减少约2000万至2500万美元。
广告客户在市场动荡时期通常会削减营销预算，对依赖广告收入的社交媒体平台构成直接压力。Snap作为以广告为主要盈利模式的企业，其业绩对地缘政治环境变化尤为敏感。此前，Snap和亚马逊等科技巨头已指示其中东员工远程办公，以确保人员安全。
尽管面临外部压力，Snap第一季度整体营收仍同比增长12%至15.3亿美元，调整后EBITDA达2.33亿美元，超出市场预期。但北美市场增长疲软，用户数出现下滑，该地区营收仅增长2%。Snap付费订阅服务Snapchat+用户已突破2500万，公司正积极通过多元化收入来源对冲广告业务的地缘政治风险。
