Snap shares were trading at their lowest level since May 31 on Tuesday, touching an intraday low of $11.19 — just $0.67 above the record low set on May 17.

Earlier this month, the social-media company  reported a loss of $0.27 a share on revenue of $262 million in the second quarter. After adjusting for pre-tax gains, the loss per share was $0.14. Snap also said that its daily active users decreased 2% to 188 million in second quarter, its first-ever decline, comparing to 191 million in previous quarter. 

Tuesday’s selling has shares on track to snap their mini two-day winning streak. The social-media company was able to post a gain of 1.5% on Friday — after Bloomberg profiled CEO Evan Spiegel said he was making an effort to be more personable with employees. 

“I remember thinking, Why would I go around the company and just chat with people?” he told Bloomberg. “Like that would be so awkward.”

Snap shares were down 24% this year.
