Reddit Surges Past Expectations with 69% Revenue Growth in Q1

Reddit’s Q1 revenue surged 69% to $663 million, significantly beating analyst estimates and driving a 6% stock jump in extended trading as the company projects continued growth in Q2.

Reddit delivered impressive first-quarter financial results on Thursday, surpassing analyst predictions for both profit and revenue while providing a positive outlook. Shares climbed 6% in after-hours trading.

Here is how the company performed against LSEG forecasts:

Earnings per share: $1.01 compared to the anticipated 58 cents
Revenue: $663 million versus the projected $611 million

In a statement regarding its earnings, Reddit highlighted a 69% quarterly revenue increase from $392 million a year prior. Net income surged to $204 million, or $1.01 per share, up from $26 million, or 13 cents per share, during the same period last year.

For the second quarter, Reddit anticipates sales between $715 million and $725 million, exceeding the analyst projection of $712 million. Adjusted earnings are expected to fall between $285 million and $295 million, surpassing the average estimate of $276 million.

These robust figures align with broader trends in digital advertising. Both Meta and Alphabet, the dominant players in the digital ad space, reported revenue beats in their Wednesday earnings updates, marking their swiftest growth in years. Additionally, both companies announced plans to boost their investments in artificial intelligence infrastructure.

Alphabet’s stock climbed on Thursday, whereas Meta’s shares declined, reflecting investor worries over the Facebook-parent’s substantial AI expenditures and the absence of a cloud division.

Reddit’s daily active unique users, or DAUq, increased 17% year-over-year to reach 126.8 million for the quarter, beating analyst forecasts of 125.9 million.

Average revenue per user, or ARPU, stood at $5.23, outperforming the $4.81 estimate. The company’s U.S.-specific ARPU was recorded at $9.63, ahead of Wall Street’s projection of $8.53.

«Reddit is a one-of-one business powered by deeply engaged communities and authentic human conversation,» Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said in a statement. «That foundation is driving a rare combination of growth, profitability, and efficiency, and giving Reddit a unique advantage in the age of AI.»

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences.
