The 1-Year Sortino Ratio measures the risk-adjusted return of an investment asset or portfolio over the past year, focusing specifically on downside risk rather than total risk. A stock / portfolio's 1-Year Sortino Ratio can be calculated by dividing the difference between the one-year returns of the investment and the risk-free rate, by the standard deviation of the downside risks over one year.

A downside risk is a potential loss from the asset or investment. The Downside risk here is measured by the downside deviation, which is the standard deviation of negative returns.

Snap Business Description

Address
3000 31st Street, Santa Monica, CA, USA, 90405
Snap is a technology company best known for its marquis social media application Snapchat, a visual messaging application that has amassed hundreds of millions of users. The app was initially only used to communicate with family and friends through photographs and short videos (known as "Snaps"). Users can now enjoy augmented reality, or AR, lenses, content from famous creators and celebrities, updates about local events, and more. Although the app offers a paid subscription option with premium features, advertising sales produce most of the app's revenue. The firm also sells wearable devices called AR Spectacles, which can capture photos and videos overlayed with AR lenses, but these make up a small portion of Snap's overall sales.
