San Francisco-based Reddit first filed for its IPO in 2021 when the market was hot thanks to a Covid-linked growth boom for tech, but the attempt stalled as the internetReddit --- unlike Facebook or former-Twitter X --- is siloed into about 100,000 subject-focused chatrooms known as subreddits, making it more specialized and a place where posts are less prone to going viral.
In its filing earlier this month, the company said that it would issue 15.2 million shares priced between $31 and $34.There are a lot of questions on whether Reddit will be a successful business and the company has never turned a profit in its two decades of existence.
