The stock, initially priced at $34 during its IPO, concluded Monday’s session at $59.80. Reddit’s debut brought in roughly $750 million from the sale of shares by the company and its existing shareholders. On the day of its debut, the company’s shares experienced a 48% upsurge, rewarding its community of moderators and users—collectively known as Redditors—who participated in the IPO through a directed-share program, a strategy previously adopted by companies like Airbnb and Rivian.
