Market watchers were not sure what to expect from Thursday's start given Reddit's record of annual losses and scepticism about potential growth in advertising revenues — which the company has described as a key area of promise. Thursday's trading performance suggested such arguments found resonance, at least initially, despite lingering questions about the company with a record of financial losses.The entry of Reddit comes on the heels of a big slowdown in tech IPOs since the US Federal Reserve started hiking interest rates.
Reddit — unlike Facebook or X, formerly Twitter — is siloed into about 100,000 subject-focused chatrooms known as subreddits, making it more specialised and a place where posts are less prone to going viral. Following the lead of companies like Airbnb and Rivian, Reddit set aside about 8 per cent of the IPO shares for moderators and top users, known as"Redditors".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.
