An AM(almost)A with Reddit Executives ADMIN An AM(almost)A with Reddit Executives

As we take the next steps towards becoming a public company, we want to invite our community to join us for an AM(almost)A with Reddit’s CEO (u/spez), COO (u/adsjunkie), and CFO (u/TimingandLuck). As much as we wish we could, for legal reasons, we are not allowed to respond to any questions in the comments. Instead, we’ll take a selection of your highest upvoted questions that follow required guidelines and post a video response covering all of them. Details and timeline below:

  • Comments will be open for the next 2 days (March 11-12), during which time you will have the opportunity to ask u/spez, u/adsjunkie, and u/TimingandLuck about Reddit’s public company journey and upvote questions that you would most like to hear more about.

  • After the comment window has closed on March 12 @ 10pm ET, we will lock comments and select questions to be answered.

  • We’ll post a video in r/rddt on 3/18 in which u/spez, u/adsjunkie, and u/TimingandLuck will respond to many of the questions.

  • In addition to that video, you can find more information about Reddit and our IPO in our preliminary prospectus available on EDGAR, any free writing prospectus that we may prepare in connection with our IPO, and the final prospectus for our IPO.

  • An important note from our lawyers: The questions and comments made in this thread are not made by Reddit nor any of the underwriters and may contain statements about Reddit or our IPO that are incorrect or out-of-date. Neither Reddit nor the underwriters take responsibility for them and we and the underwriters will not correct them if they are incorrect.

We’ll see you (but you won’t see us) in the comments.
