Reddit’s IPO was a rollercoaster ride, with the stock hitting highs of $74 before falling to its current price of ~$40. While IPO investors are still in the green, peak buyers are facing significant losses. Analyst coverage is mixed, with some seeing the stock as a ‘Strong Buy’ due to its unique platform and positive growth trends. Others caution about its advertising challenges and the expiration of lockup periods. Despite the risks, Reddit has strong fundamentals, including a growing user base and improving monetization strategy. The company is on track to achieve GAAP profitability within the next 12 months. Reddit’s long-term growth potential remains significant, especially if it can capitalize on industry tailwinds and its unique niche status.
