Shares of Snap Inc. (SNAP) are dropping over 30% in extended hours trading on Tuesday afternoon after the company released its fourth-quarter earnings report. The report showed revenue rose 5% to $1.36 billion, but still missed estimates of $1.38 billion. In addition, Snap posted an adjusted first-quarter EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) which also missed analysts' expectations. Scott Kessler, Third Bridge Global Sector Lead, TMT (Technology, Media & Telecommunications), joins Yahoo Finance to discuss Snap's performance and what he would like to see from Snap going forward. When asked about how Snap stands out from competition, Kessler replies: "What I would say about that really is one thing and one thing only and that is historically this company more than any other has focused on brand advertising versus performance advertising. It's one of the reasons why they really had some issues early on post-Covid, if you will, because there was this dramatic shift to direct response advertising essentially associated with e-commerce. That's not how Snap was built." He continues on to say "It's not how it was operating and they've spent essentially the last year rebuilding the advertising technology and solutions to enable them to more effectively sell that kind of performance, e-commerce advertising. But because of that historic orientation, it's really put them on the defensive and they've spent a lot of time and a lot of money essentially reengineering the platform for those capabilities."

According to a report from the National Restaurant Association, restaurant sales will exceed $1.1 trillion in 2024. However, only 27% of restaurant owners expect to be more profitable than last year. In addition, the report noted that nearly half of consumers are cautious with spending. National Restaurant Association CEO Michelle Korsmo joins Yahoo Finance to discuss the state of the restaurant industry and how owners are preparing for a more cautious consumer. Korsmo explains one of the problems restaurant operators are facing: "One big thing that operators are talking about is technology and it's trying to figure out that balance between a high-touch and a high-tech environment. Restaurant operators are looking for more workers in the industry. We're seeking 15.7 employees in the restaurant industry this year which is one out of every ten workers in the workforce and that's not enough."

Oppenheimer Managing Director and Senior Research Analyst Colin Rusch joined Yahoo Finance Live to discuss Tesla's (TSLA) stock drop amid turmoil surrounding CEO Elon Musk's conduct and pay package. Rusch says he tries not to focus on the "noise about Elon's personal life," but instead on Tesla's technology performance and position. However, he notes higher inflation "coupled with" EV concerns has caused "natural growing pains" in a transitional space. While Musk brought "ambition and vision" to Tesla, Rusch says the company is attracting "top talent" to tackle complex engineering challenges. Though Musk does "set the agenda," Rusch emphasizes Tesla is not dependent on "a single person." When it comes to questions about the board's independence, Rusch says it's "hard to say" whether it's independent enough. Rusch argues that it's "critical" that the board keep Musk's "attention and buy in to the organization."
