1 | To elect Steven Huffman, Sarah Farrell, Patricia Fili-Krushel, Porter Gale, David Habiger, Steven O. Newhouse, Robert A.

We will also consider any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. At this time, we are not aware of any other matters to be submitted for consideration at the Annual Meeting.
Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on April 14, 2025 as the record date for the Annual Meeting.

Reddit, Inc. | 7 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
Director Independence
Our Class A common stock is listed on the NYSE. Under the listing rules of the NYSE and our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the board of directors of a listed company must consist of a majority of independent directors at all times. This means, generally, that they will not have any connections to the listed company that could affect their ability to provide impartial oversight. A director will be deemed “independent” only if the board of directors of a listed company affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with us that affects the director’s independence from management (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the listed company) or that would interfere with the director exercising independent judgment in carrying out the director’s responsibilities. In addition, under the rules of NYSE, the definition of independence includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of the listed company’s employees and that neither the director nor any of their family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with the listed company. Additionally, under the listing rules of the NYSE, a listed company’s audit committee, compensation committee, and nominating and corporate governance committee must consist only of independent directors. However, Mr. Huffman is entitled to vote shares representing a majority of our outstanding voting power, and we are eligible to be “controlled company” under NYSE’s corporate governance rules. Therefore, we are not required to have a majority of our Board of Directors be independent, nor are we required to have a compensation committee or an independent nominating function. We have nevertheless opted to have a majority of our Board of Directors be independent and to have a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee comprised of independent directors, as more fully described below.
On an annual basis, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the independence of directors, and provides a recommendation to the Board of Directors regarding such independence. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee follows a similar process for all director nominees prior to their nomination to the Board of Directors.
Based on the review and recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board of Directors has determined Sarah Farrell, Patricia Fili-Krushel, Porter Gale, David Habiger, Steven O. Newhouse, Robert A. Sauerberg, and Michael Seibel, representing seven of our eight director nominees, are independent for purposes of their service on the Board of Directors and the committees on which they serve, as set forth under the applicable rules, regulations, and listing standards of the NYSE and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC.
There are no family relationships among our directors and executive officers.
Leadership Structure of the Board
Our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) and Corporate Governance Guidelines provide our Board of Directors with flexibility to combine or separate the positions of the Chairperson of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and to implement a Lead Director when the Chairperson of the Board of Directors is a member of our management or does not otherwise qualify as independent, in accordance with its determination regarding which structure would be in our best interests. In accordance with the Governance Agreement, dated March 19, 2024 (the “Governance Agreement”), by and among us, Advance Magazine Publishers Inc. (“Advance”), and Mr. Huffman, and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”), no director can be selected as Chairperson of the Board of Directors without the prior written approval of each of Advance and, for so long as he remains our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Huffman. Our Board of Directors believes it is important to have flexibility in selecting the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, subject to the aforementioned approvals, and our board leadership structure. Any changes to the leadership structure of our Board of Directors, if made, will be promptly disclosed in the “Investor Relations” section of our website and will be reflected in our proxy materials for the next annual meeting of stockholders. In making leadership structure determinations, the Board of Directors considers many factors, including

Reddit, Inc. | 8 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
the specific needs of the business and what is in the best interests of our stockholders. Our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may seek input from our stockholders on the leadership structure of the Board of Directors.
Currently, the positions of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer are held by different individuals. David Habiger, an independent director, is the Chairperson of our Board of Directors. Mr. Habiger has served as a member of our Board of Directors since November 2022 and as Chairperson since November 2023. Our Board of Directors believes that Mr. Habiger’s extensive experience as an executive leader of, advisor to, and investor in technology companies, and as a board member of public companies across numerous industries, as well as his deep understanding of business, operational, and financial matters, make him well qualified to serve as Chairperson of our Board of Directors. Robert A. Sauerberg, an independent director, is the Vice Chairperson of our Board of Directors. Mr. Sauerberg has served as a member of our Board of Directors since April 2012 and as Vice Chairperson since November 2023. We believe Mr. Sauerberg is qualified to serve as Vice Chairperson of our Board of Directors because of his extensive leadership and executive experience.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that, when the Chairperson of the Board of Directors is a member of management or does not otherwise qualify as independent, the independent directors may elect a “Lead Director.” The responsibilities of the Lead Director include, but are not limited to: presiding over all meetings of the Board of Directors at which the Chairperson is not present, including any executive sessions of the independent directors; approving Board meeting schedules and agendas; and acting as the liaison between the independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson. At such times as the Chairperson is an independent director, the Chairperson will serve as lead director. Mr. Habiger is an independent director, and accordingly, the independent directors of our Board of Directors have not designated a Lead Director.
Board of Directors and Committee Meetings and Attendance
Our Board of Directors and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, and also hold special meetings from time to time. During 2024, our Board of Directors met seven times, the Audit Committee met four times, the Compensation and Talent Committee met four times, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met three times.
During 2024, each member of our Board of Directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board of Directors held during the period for which he or she was a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board of Directors on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served.
Executive Sessions
To encourage and enhance communication among non-employee directors, and as required under applicable NYSE rules, our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the non-employee directors will meet in executive sessions without non-Independent directors or management present on a periodic basis but no less than twice per year. Such executive sessions will be led by independent directors.

Committees of Our Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation and Talent Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. In accordance with the Governance Agreement and the Certificate of Incorporation, upon Advance’s request, one Advance Designee (as defined below) shall be a member of each committee of our Board of Directors, other than the Audit Committee (or any committee we may establish where the sole purpose of such committee is to address actual or potential conflicts of interest between us and Advance). The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Each of these committees has a written charter approved by our Board of Directors that satisfies the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. Copies of the charters for each committee are available on our Reddit Investor Relations website at investor.redditinc.com. Members serve on these committees until their resignations or until otherwise determined by our Board of Directors.
Audit Committee
Our Audit Committee consists of Sarah Farrell, David Habiger, and Robert A. Sauerberg. Mr. Habiger is the Chairperson of our Audit Committee. The composition of our Audit Committee meets the requirements for independence under the rules of the NYSE and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Each member of our Audit Committee is financially literate. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Habiger is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the SEC rules. This designation does not impose on such directors any duties, obligations, or liabilities that are greater than are generally imposed on members of our Audit Committee and our Board of Directors. Our Audit Committee is directly responsible for, among other things:
•selecting, appointing, compensating, retaining, terminating, and overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm;
•assessing the independence and performance of the independent registered public accounting firm;
•reviewing with our independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of the firm’s annual audit of our financial statements;

Director Qualifications
With the goal of developing an experienced and highly qualified Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for recommending qualified candidates to our Board of Directors based on the qualification standards set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and such other criteria as the Board of Directors or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may determine necessary or appropriate in light of applicable SEC and NYSE requirements or other relevant considerations.
Because the identification, evaluation, and selection of qualified directors is a complex and subjective process that requires consideration of many intangible factors and will be significantly influenced by the particular needs of our Board of Directors from time to time, our Board of Directors has not adopted a specific set of minimum qualifications, qualities or skills that are necessary for a nominee to possess, other than those that are necessary to meet U.S. legal, regulatory and NYSE listing requirements and the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters of the committees of our Board of Directors. In its evaluation of director candidates, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may consider the current size and composition, organization and governance of our Board of Directors, and the needs of our Board of Directors and its committees. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may take into consideration many other factors including, among other things, a candidate’s experience in corporate management or as a board member of other companies, including service as an officer or former officer of a publicly held company or on the board of directors of another publicly held company, the candidate’s professional and academic experience relevant to our industry, the strength of the candidate’s leadership skills, the candidate’s experience in finance and accounting and/or executive compensation practices, and whether the candidate has the time required for preparation, participation, and attendance at Board meetings and committee meetings, if applicable. While we have no formal policy regarding board diversity for our Board of Directors as a whole nor for each individual member, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does consider additional factors, areas of expertise, and other individual attributes that contribute to the total diversity of viewpoints and experience represented on the Board of Directors. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem, from time to time, are in our and our stockholders’ best interests.
Through the nomination process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks to promote board membership that reflects a diversity of business experience, expertise, viewpoints, personal backgrounds, and other characteristics that are expected to contribute to our Board of Directors’ overall effectiveness. The brief biographical descriptions of each director set forth above in the section titled “—Nominees for Director” includes a summary of the individual experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills of each of our directors that led to the conclusion that each director should serve as a member of our Board of Directors at this time.
Nomination to the Board of Directors
Candidates for nomination to our Board of Directors are selected by our Board of Directors based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in accordance with the committee’s charter, our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the criteria approved by our Board of Directors regarding director candidate qualifications. In recommending candidates for nomination, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates recommended by stockholders. Evaluations of candidates generally involve a review of background materials, internal discussions, and interviews with selected candidates, as appropriate. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may engage consultants or third-party search firms to assist in identifying and evaluating potential nominees.

Additionally, in accordance with the Governance Agreement, we are required to include two directors designated by Advance (the “Advance Designees”) in the slate of nominees for election as directors at each applicable annual or special meeting of stockholders. The Advance Designees are Steven O. Newhouse and Robert Sauerberg, Jr. Subject to certain limitations, Advance will have the exclusive right to replace the Advance Designees and fill any vacancies created by reason of death, removal, or resignation of the Advance Designees. Upon the termination of the Governance Agreement, the term of each Advance Designee will expire and terminate, unless otherwise determined by our Board of Directors. Upon Advance’s request, one Advance Designee shall be a member of each committee of our Board of Directors, other than the Audit Committee or any committee where the sole purpose of such committee is to address actual or potential conflicts of interest between us and Advance. Advance also has the right to designate one nonvoting board observer, subject to such observer entering into an observer agreement setting forth confidentiality and other obligations.

Communication with Directors
Stockholders and interested parties who wish to communicate with our Board of Directors, non-management members of our Board of Directors as a group, a committee of our Board of Directors or one or more individual members of our Board of Directors (including our Chairman, Vice Chairman or Lead Independent Director, if any) may do so by emailing corporatesecretary@reddit.com. All stockholder communications we receive that are addressed to our Board of Directors will be reviewed and compiled by our Corporate Secretary and provided to the members of our Board of Directors, as appropriate and in accordance with our internal policies. If the correspondence is not addressed to a particular director, such correspondence will be forwarded, depending on the subject matter, to the chairperson of the Audit Committee, Compensation and Talent Committee or Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Sales materials, and abusive, threatening or otherwise inappropriate materials and items unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of our Board of Directors, will not be provided to our directors.
Board of Directors and Committee Self-Evaluations
Throughout the year, our Board of Directors discusses corporate governance practices with management and third-party advisors to ensure that the Board of Directors and its committees follow practices that are optimal for us and our stockholders. Our Board of Directors conducts an annual self-evaluation for itself and its committees. As part of this process, each member of our Board of Directors fills out a questionnaire prepared by our outside counsel to discuss their assessment of the performance of the Board of Directors and its committees, their own performance, and the performance of fellow members of the Board of Directors. Results from such assessment are aggregated and shared and discussed by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Board of Directors.
Our Board of Directors evaluation process is used:
•by our Board of Directors and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to assess the current composition of our Board of Directors and its committees and make recommendations for the qualifications, expertise, and characteristics we should seek in identifying potential new directors;
•by our Board of Directors and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to identify the strengths and areas of opportunity of each member of our Board of Directors and to provide insight into how each member of our Board of Directors can be most valuable;

•to improve agenda topics of the Board of Directors and its committees so that information they receive enables them to effectively address the issues they consider most critical; and
•by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as part of its annual review of each director’s performance when considering whether to nominate the director for re-election to the Board of Directors.
Board Attendance at Annual Meeting of Stockholders
Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our Board of Directors at annual meetings of stockholders, we invite and encourage, but do not require, each member of our Board of Directors to attend. We completed our initial public offering in March 2024 and did not have an annual meeting of stockholders in 2024.
Our Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight
Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our Board of Directors encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings, and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the Board of Directors at regular board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on particular business functions, operations or strategies, and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.
Our Board of Directors does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through our Board of Directors as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of our Board of Directors that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. While our Board of Directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial, cybersecurity and information technology risk exposures and our risk exposures in other areas, as well as the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The Audit Committee also approves or disapproves any related party transactions. Our Compensation and Talent Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our Corporate Governance Guidelines.
Cybersecurity Risk Oversight
Our Board of Directors considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of cybersecurity and other information technology risks. The Audit Committee oversees management’s implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program.
The Audit Committee receives regular reports from management on our cybersecurity risks. In addition, management updates the Audit Committee, as necessary, regarding any material cybersecurity incidents, as well as any incidents with lesser impact potential.
The Audit Committee reports to the full Board of Directors regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity. The full Board of Directors also receives briefings from management on our cyber risk management program. Board members receive presentations on cybersecurity topics from our Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”), internal security staff, or external experts as part of the Board of Directors’ continuing education on topics that impact public companies.

Reddit, Inc. | 14 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
Our CISO, Fredrick Lee, has over twenty years of experience in information security, engineering, and other technology-related roles. Mr. Lee currently oversees Reddit’s Security, Privacy, Assurance, Corporate Engineering (“SPACE”) team, which is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. Our SPACE team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants. Our SPACE team has a strong foundation of expertise, developed over years of experience in cybersecurity and engineering across diverse industries, including technology.
Our SPACE team supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, remediate, and appropriately report cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel; threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public, or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the IT environment.
Oversight of Corporate Strategy
Our Board of Directors actively oversees management’s establishment and execution of corporate strategy, including major business and organizational initiatives, annual budget and long-term strategic plans, capital allocation priorities, potential corporate development opportunities and risk management. At its regularly scheduled meetings and throughout the year, our Board of Directors receives information and formal updates from our management and actively engages with the senior leadership team with respect to our corporate strategy. Our Board of Directors’ diverse skillset and experience enhances its ability to support management in the execution and evaluation of our corporate strategy.
Management Succession Planning
Our Board of Directors recognizes that one of its most important duties is its oversight of succession planning for our senior management positions, including our Chief Executive Officer. On an annual basis, the Compensation and Talent Committee works with management to evaluate Reddit’s senior management succession plans and reports to the Board of Directors on these succession plans. Our succession planning covers identification of internal and external candidates, and professional and leadership plans for internal candidates. The criteria used by the Compensation and Talent Committee and Board of Directors to evaluate candidates includes consideration of strategic vision, organizational and operational needs, competitive challenges, and leadership and management potential.
Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our Board of Directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines to encourage effective policy and decision making at the Board of Directors level. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines address items such as responsibilities for directors, director independence standards, board committee structure and functions and other matters related to the governance of Reddit. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the Corporate Governance Guidelines periodically, and changes are recommended to our Board of Directors as warranted. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our Investor Relations website at investor.redditinc.com.

Business Ethics Policy
Our Board of Directors has adopted a Business Ethics Policy that applies to all of our officers, employees, contingent workers, consultants, and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of our Business Ethics Policy is posted on the investor relations section of our website at investor.redditinc.com. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain portions of our Business Ethics Policy or waivers of such provisions granted to executive officers and directors on the same website, as permitted under applicable rules of NYSE and the SEC.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
To further align the interests of our non-employee directors with those of our stockholders, our Board of Directors has adopted minimum stock ownership guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors. Under our guidelines, each non-employee director is required to accumulate and maintain holdings of our shares with a value equal to five times the annual fee payable for service on the Board of Directors, not including committee membership or chairperson retainers (the “Minimum Ownership Threshold”). The current Minimum Ownership Threshold is $300,000. For non-employee directors who were serving on the Board of Directors as of March 20, 2024, compliance with the minimum stock ownership guidelines is required by December 31, 2029. For directors elected or appointed after March 20, 2024, compliance with the minimum stock ownership guidelines is required by December 31 of the year in which the fifth anniversary of such director’s appointment or election occurs.
Corporate Responsibility
We believe that corporate responsibility initiatives are important to our business and in creating value for our stockholders and wider stakeholder group. Our Board of Directors and management are committed to these initiatives and believe these efforts will benefit our employees, Redditors, partners, and communities.
Culture and Engagement
We invest in our employees’ career growth through competitive pay and benefits, as well as development and training. Some highlights of our commitment to our employees’ sense of satisfaction and professional growth include:
•Competitive pay and benefits. We conduct an annual market review to ensure our compensation remains in line with our competitive compensation philosophy.
•Employee development and training. We have made meaningful investments in learning and development, including offering professional development funds and employee resource groups. We invest in employee development and training as we believe our people and culture are key drivers of business success.
Governance
We are committed to sound corporate governance policies and practices demonstrating the highest standards of business ethics. Some highlights of our corporate governance practices include:
•Independent Board of Directors. Seven out of our eight nominees for election to our Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting, including our Chairperson, Mr. Habiger, and our Vice Chairperson, Mr. Sauerberg, are independent for purposes of their service on the Board of Directors and the committees on which they serve, as set forth under the applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of NYSE and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC.
•Declassified Board. Our Board of Directors is declassified, and directors are elected on an annual basis.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Arrangements
Our Compensation and Talent Committee, after considering the information, analysis and recommendation provided by our independent compensation consultant, Pearl Meyer & Partners LLC (“Pearl Meyer”), including data regarding compensation paid to non-employee directors by companies in our compensation peer group (as described in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Our Compensation-Setting Process—Use of Comparative Market Data”), evaluates the appropriate level and form of compensation for non-employee members of our Board of Directors and recommends changes to our Board of Directors when appropriate. We do not pay management directors for service on our Board of Directors.
In February 2022, we adopted the Non-Employee Director Compensation Program, which was most recently amended and restated in August 2024 (the “Director Compensation Program”), and pursuant to which our non-employee directors are eligible to receive cash compensation and equity awards for service on our Board of Directors.
Annual Retainers. Under the Director Compensation Program, our non-employee directors are eligible to receive cash compensation as follows:
•Each non-employee director receives an annual cash retainer in the amount of $60,000.
•The non-employee Chairperson of our Board of Directors receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $100,000 per year for service as the Chairperson of our Board of Directors.
•The non-employee Vice Chairperson of our Board of Directors receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $50,000 per year for service as the Vice Chairperson of our Board of Directors.
•The chair of the Audit Committee receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $25,000 per year for service on the Audit Committee.
•Each member of the Audit Committee other than the chair receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $12,500 per year for service on the Audit Committee.
•The chair of the Compensation and Talent Committee receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $20,000 per year for service on the Compensation and Talent Committee.
•Each member of the Compensation and Talent Committee other than the chair receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $10,000 per year for service on the Compensation and Talent Committee.

•Each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee other than the chair receives additional cash compensation in the amount of $7,500 per year for service on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
All annual cash retainers are paid quarterly in arrears promptly following the end of the applicable quarter, and will be prorated based on months of service for any non-employee directors appointed or elected to the Board of Directors or one of its committees between the annual meeting of stockholders.
Election to Receive RSUs in Lieu of Annual Retainers. Each non-employee director may elect to receive all or a portion of their annual cash retainers in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under our 2024 Incentive Award Plan (the “2024 Plan”). Elections to convert annual cash retainers into RSUs must generally be made on or prior to December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the annual cash retainers are earned, or such earlier deadline as established by our Board of Directors or Compensation and Talent Committee. Each individual who first becomes a non-employee director is permitted to elect to convert the annual cash retainer payments earned in the same calendar year into RSUs, provided that the election is made on or prior to the date the individual becomes a non-employee director. RSUs granted in lieu of the annual cash retainers will be fully vested on

the grant date, and the number of RSUs will be determined by dividing the amount of the cash retainers that would otherwise be paid by the average closing trading price of our Class A common stock over the 60 trading days preceding the grant date.
Annual RSU Grant. Each non-employee director who is serving immediately before and continues to serve immediately after each annual meeting of stockholders will automatically be granted, on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, an award of a number of RSUs calculated by dividing (a) $250,000 (prorated based on months of service for any non-employee directors appointed or elected to the Board of Directors between the annual meeting of stockholders) by (b) the average closing trading price of a share of our Class A common stock over the 60 trading days preceding the grant date. Each annual award will fully vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date, and (ii) immediately before our annual stockholder’s meeting following the grant date, subject to continued service with us through the applicable vesting date.
In addition, the Director Compensation Program provides that non-employee directors may elect to defer the issuance of shares underlying vested RSUs granted to them in lieu of their annual retainers or as part of their annual RSU grant, provided that the election is made (i) on or prior to the date that the individual becomes a non-employee director or (ii) no later than December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the RSUs are earned, or such earlier deadline as may be established by the Board of Directors or the Compensation and Talent Committee.
Each award of RSUs, along with any other equity-based awards held by any non-employee director that is subject to vesting, will fully vest upon a change in control of us.

Proposal No. 1:
Election of Directors
Our Board of Directors currently consists of eight directors. Pursuant to the terms of our Certificate of Incorporation, all directors will be elected for annual terms following the expiration of their current terms.
Nominees for Director
At the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board of Directors proposes that each of Steven Huffman, Sarah Farrell, Patricia Fili-Krushel, Porter Gale, David Habiger, Steven O. Newhouse, Robert A. Sauerberg, and Michael Seibel be elected at the Annual Meeting with each to serve for a one-year term expiring at our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification, or removal. Upon the termination of the Governance Agreement, the term of each Advance Designee that is then serving as a director on our Board of Directors will expire and terminate, unless otherwise determined by our Board of Directors. Subject to certain limitations, Advance will have the exclusive right to replace the Advance Designees and fill any vacancies created by reason of death, removal, or resignation of the Advance Designees. Each of the director nominees is a current director of our Board of Directors. For more information concerning the nominees, see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance—Nominees for Director.”
If any nominee for any reason is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holder might determine. Each nominee has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve if elected. Proxies may not be voted for more than eight directors. Stockholders may not cumulate votes for the election of directors.
Vote Required
The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the shares of our common stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon which means that the eight individuals nominated for election to our Board of Directors receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Withhold votes and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. See the section titled “Questions and Answers About the Proxy Materials and Our Annual Meeting” for additional information.

VOTE

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR ALL” nominees in the election of each of the eight director nominees.

Proposal No. 2:
Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Our Audit Committee has selected KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as our independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2019. At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. Although not required by applicable law or listing rules, our Audit Committee is submitting the appointment of KPMG to our stockholders because we value our stockholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. Representatives of KPMG will be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting, if they desire to do so, and to respond to appropriate questions. Notwithstanding the appointment of KPMG, and even if our stockholders ratify the appointment, our Audit Committee, in its sole discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during our year ending December 31, 2025 if our Audit Committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders.
In the event that KPMG is not ratified by our stockholders, the Audit Committee may reconsider its selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm.
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees and Services
We regularly review the services and fees from our independent registered public accounting firm. These services and fees are also reviewed with our Audit Committee. In accordance with standard policy, KPMG periodically rotates the individuals who are responsible for our audit.
In addition to performing the audit of our consolidated financial statements, KPMG provided various other services during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024. Our Audit Committee has determined that KPMG’s provision of these services, which are described below, does not impair KPMG’s independence from us. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, fees for services provided by KPMG were as follows (in thousands):

| 2023 ($) | 2024 ($) |
Audit fees(1) | 1,500 |  | 2,883 |  |
Audit-related fees(2) | 25 |  | 150 |  |

Proposal No. 3:
Advisory Vote on the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers
In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we are providing stockholders with an opportunity to make a non-binding, advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as a “say on pay” vote and gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our Named Executive Officers’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific Named Executive Officer, but rather the overall compensation of all of our Named Executive Officers and the philosophy, policies, and practices described in this Proxy Statement.
Stockholders are urged to read the section titled “Executive Compensation,” which discusses how our executive compensation policies and practices implement our compensation philosophy and contains tabular information and narrative discussion about the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Our Compensation and Talent Committee and Board of Directors believe that these policies and practices are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our goals. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that our stockholders approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and narrative discussion and the other related disclosures.”
As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our Board of Directors and Compensation and Talent Committee, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our Named Executive Officers.
Vote Required
The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon that are voted “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. See the section titled “Questions and Answers About the Proxy Materials and Our Annual Meeting” for additional information.

VOTE

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers.

Reddit, Inc. | 23 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Proposal No. 4:
Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers
In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we are providing our stockholders with an opportunity to make a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as a “say on frequency” vote and must be submitted to stockholders at least once every six years.
You have four choices for voting on this proposal. You can choose whether future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers should be conducted every “ONE YEAR,” “TWO YEARS,” or “THREE YEARS.” You may also “ABSTAIN” from voting.
After careful consideration, our Board of Directors recommends that future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers be held every year. Our Board of Directors believes that holding a vote every year is the most appropriate option because it will enable stockholders to express annually their views on our executive compensation program.
Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the Board of Directors’ recommendation. Instead, stockholders may indicate their preference regarding the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers by selecting one year, two years, or three years. Stockholders that do not have a preference regarding the frequency of future advisory votes may abstain from voting on the proposal.
As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our Board of Directors and Compensation and Talent Committee value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of holding future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. However, because this is an advisory vote and therefore not binding on our Board of Directors or us, our Board of Directors may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders that we hold an advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers more or less frequently than the option preferred by our stockholders. The results of the vote will not be construed to create or imply any change or addition to the fiduciary duties of our Board of Directors.

Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) describes the philosophy, objectives and structure of our compensation program for our principal executive officer, our principal financial officer and our three most highly compensated executive officers (other than our principal executive officer and principal financial officer) during the year ended December 31, 2024. We refer to these individuals as our “Named Executive Officers”:

Steven Huffman | Chief Executive Officer, President, and Director
Jennifer Wong | Chief Operating Officer
Andrew Vollero | Chief Financial Officer
Christopher Slowe, Ph.D. | Chief Technology Officer
Benjamin Lee | Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary

2024 Highlights
2024 was a milestone year for Reddit, our first as a public company. In 2024, we surpassed $1 billion in revenue, crossed 100 million daily active uniques (“DAUq”), and expanded our reach to several new countries around the world.
Human perspectives have never been more important, and we updated our mission statement to reflect this: "Empower communities, and make their knowledge accessible to everyone." Throughout the year, we invested in our search product to improve relevance and enable users to discover the unique content and conversations on Reddit. In the United States, we launched the beta for Reddit Answers, an AI-powered search tool that provides curated summaries of community discussions. Although it’s still in its early stages, it’s already proven versatile as people turn to it for everything from local updates — such as during the Los Angeles wildfires— to authentic opinions on the best coffee maker. We also made meaningful progress improving our machine learning models to make the home feed and search results more relevant and translating content for global audiences with machine translation.
We also invested in our ad tech solutions and drove positive outcomes for advertisers with Reddit-unique offerings, automation features that drive advertising performance, and measurement tools including conversions API. In 2024, we continued developing products that leverage the context of communities and conversations to drive ad performance, including the expansion of Conversation Ads and the launch of Ask Me Anything (AMA) ads. We also launched Reddit Pro, a suite of tools that enables businesses to get insights into top communities and conversations in their category, publish compelling content, track performance, and grow their organic presence on Reddit.
As we look to 2025 and beyond, we’ll seek opportunities to accelerate our roadmap, whether through new product developments, global expansion, or growing our ads business, all while maintaining our commitment to scaling profitably and ensuring that Reddit continues to be the go-to place for conversations and community on the internet.

Compensation Policies and Practices
Our Compensation and Talent Committee regularly reviews best practices in executive compensation and evaluates our executive compensation program on at least an annual basis to ensure that it is consistent with our near-term and long-term goals. The following highlights aspects of our executive compensation policies and practices:

What We Do |  | What We Don’t Do
•Maintain an independent and experienced Compensation and Talent Committee |  | •No pension plans or supplemental executive retirement plans
•Maintain an independent compensation consultant |  | •No hedging or pledging of our stock per the terms of our Insider Trading Compliance Policy and Procedures
•Provide a significant portion of performance-based or variable compensation that is not guaranteed |  | •No discounted stock option awards
•Pay-for-performance philosophy and culture |  | •No excessive perquisites
•Regularly assess risks of our compensation program |  | •No excise tax gross-ups
•Emphasize long-term equity compensation |  |
•Double-trigger change in control agreements |  |
•Maintain a compensation recovery policy to ensure accountability |  |

Our Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Our compensation philosophy is to provide a competitive compensation package that allows us to attract, retain and incentivize talented individuals who we believe will enable us to achieve our near-term and long-term strategic objectives, while simultaneously creating long-term value for our stockholders. Consistent with our philosophy, our executive compensation program is designed to achieve the following objectives:
•attract, retain and motivate talented executive officers whose skills, experience and performance are critical to our long-term success and achievement of our financial and strategic objectives;
•align compensation incentives to Reddit’s financial performance and the interests of our stockholders, while also considering macroeconomic trends in the technology industry;
•reward our executive officers for their experience and performance and motivate them to achieve our long-term strategic goals; and
•ensure that our total compensation is fair, reasonable, equitable within Reddit, and competitive in comparison to the practices of comparable publicly held companies.
We believe our executive compensation program, as developed and implemented and as presented in this Proxy Statement, achieves these objectives.

Our Compensation-Setting Process
Role of the Board of Directors and the Compensation and Talent Committee
Our Compensation and Talent Committee, which acts on behalf of the Board of Directors, has the overall responsibility for overseeing our compensation and benefits policies and practices applicable to all our employees as well as all aspects of our executive compensation programs, including executive salaries, payouts under any bonus plans, the size and structure of equity awards and any executive perquisites. In carrying out its responsibilities, our Compensation and Talent Committee evaluates our compensation policies and practices for alignment with our executive compensation philosophy, assesses internal pay equity and the practices of comparable publicly held companies, considers the recommendations of its independent compensation consultant, and reviews Reddit’s financial performance and the performance of our Named Executive Officers when making decisions about their compensation.
The Compensation and Talent Committee approves the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding grants of equity to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer. The Compensation and Talent Committee regularly reports to the Board of Directors regarding its activities.
Role of Management
In discharging its responsibilities, the Compensation and Talent Committee works with members of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer. Our management assists the Compensation and Talent Committee by providing information on corporate and individual performance, as well as management’s perspective on compensation matters. The Compensation and Talent Committee solicits and reviews our Chief Executive Officer’s proposals with respect to program structures, as well as our Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations for adjustments to annual cash compensation, long-term incentive compensation opportunities, and other compensation-related matters for our Named Executive Officers (except with respect to his own compensation) based on our Chief Executive Officer’s evaluation of their performance for the prior year.
At the beginning of each year, our Chief Executive Officer reviews the performance of our other Named Executive Officers based on their overall performance and their performance against business objectives established for them for the prior year, and then he shares these evaluations with, and makes recommendations to, the Compensation and Talent Committee for each element of compensation as described above. The annual business objectives for each Named Executive Officer are developed through mutual discussion and agreement between our Chief Executive Officer and our other Named Executive Officers and are also reviewed with our Board of Directors.
The Compensation and Talent Committee reviews and discusses our Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations and considers them as one factor in determining and approving our Named Executive Officers’ compensation. Our Chief Executive Officer also attends meetings of our Board of Directors and the Compensation and Talent Committee at which executive compensation matters are addressed, except for discussions involving his own compensation.
Role of Compensation Consultant
Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation and Talent Committee has the authority to engage its own advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. The Compensation and Talent Committee has retained the services of Pearl Meyer as its independent compensation consultant. Pearl Meyer supports the Compensation and Talent Committee by providing guidance regarding the amount and types of compensation that we provide to our Named Executive Officers, how our compensation practices compare to the compensation practices of our compensation peer group (or other similarly situated technology companies), and other compensation-related matters. Pearl Meyer reports directly to the Compensation and Talent Committee, although Pearl Meyer may meet with members of management for the purposes of gathering information on proposals that management may make to the Compensation and Talent Committee.

Reddit, Inc. | 30 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
The Compensation and Talent Committee has the sole authority to engage and terminate Pearl Meyer’s services, as well as to approve its compensation. Pearl Meyer makes recommendations to the Compensation and Talent Committee, but has no authority to make compensation decisions on behalf of the Compensation and Talent Committee or us. During 2024, Pearl Meyer reported to the Compensation and Talent Committee and had direct access to the chairperson and the other members of the Compensation and Talent Committee. Beyond data and advice related to director and executive compensation matters and employee equity plan design, Pearl Meyer did not provide other services to us in 2024.
The Compensation and Talent Committee conducted a specific review of its relationship with Pearl Meyer in 2024 and determined that Pearl Meyer’s work for the Compensation and Talent Committee did not raise any conflicts of interest. Pearl Meyer work has conformed to the independence factors and guidance provided by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, the SEC and NYSE.
Use of Comparative Market Data
When considering executive compensation decisions, the Compensation and Talent Committee believes it is important to be informed as to current compensation practices of comparable publicly held companies, especially to understand the demand and competitiveness for attracting and retaining an individual with each Named Executive Officer’s specific expertise and experience. The Compensation and Talent Committee assessed the competitiveness of each element of the Named Executive Officers’ total direct compensation, against the compensation peer group, as discussed below. This is one factor that the Compensation and Talent Committee and Board of Directors considers when it sets pay levels for the Named Executive Officers.
In developing this compensation peer group, the Compensation and Talent Committee engaged Pearl Meyer to assist in its review and considered several factors, including, but not limited to:
•Actual experience in the talent market (e.g., companies from which we source and potentially lose executive talent);
•Scale and complexity (primarily revenue and market capitalization); and
•Business fit (e.g., comparably sized high-growth technology companies).
Based on these factors and the recommendation of Pearl Meyer, the Compensation and Talent Committee selected the following peer group for 2024, which peer group remained unchanged from 2023 except that each of Qualtrics International Inc. and Splunk Inc. was removed from the peer group because they were acquired. The compensation peer group is reviewed and approved by the Compensation and Talent Committee annually:

AppLovin | Match | Sprout Social
Bumble | Nextdoor | Squarespace
Dropbox | Nutanix | Twilio
ElasticSearch | Pinterest | Unity Software
Etsy | Roblox | Zillow
IAC | Roku | ZoomInfo Technologies
Lyft | Snap |

While we do not establish compensation levels solely based on a review of competitive data and do not directly tie any pay elements to particular benchmarks within our peer group, we believe market data (including executive and director pay levels, program structure, equity awards, and other benefits structures) is a meaningful input to our compensation policies and practices to attract and retain qualified executive officers.

Reddit, Inc. | 31 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Compensation Risk Oversight and Assessment
Our Compensation and Talent Committee reviews and discusses with management the risks arising from our compensation philosophy and practices generally applicable to our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, to determine whether they encourage excessive risk-taking and to evaluate compensation policies and practices that could mitigate such risks. Based on conversations with management and Pearl Meyer’s review, the Compensation and Talent Committee concluded that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on us.
Elements of Compensation
Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain talented executive officers, as well as to align their interests with the interests of our stockholders. We offer competitive base salaries, and deploy an annual performance-based cash bonus program and grant equity awards that vest over a one-year period as the primary pay-for-performance and incentive vehicles. Our executive equity program serves to link our executives’ long-term compensation outcomes to our performance and therefore to the interests of our stockholders over time.
Annual Base Salaries
We use base salary to provide a fixed and stable amount of cash compensation for our Named Executive Officers for performing their ongoing responsibilities.
The Compensation and Talent Committee consults with members of management on and approves the initial base salaries for Named Executive Officers, taking into account the individual’s position, qualifications, experience, competitive market data, and the base salaries of our other Named Executive Officers. The Compensation and Talent Committee also reviews the base salaries of our Named Executive Officers each year as part of its annual compensation review, with input from our CEO (except with respect to his own base salary) and Pearl Meyer, and makes adjustments as it determines to be reasonable and necessary to reflect the scope of a Named Executive Officer’s performance, individual contributions and responsibilities, position in the case of a promotion, target total direct compensation opportunity, and market conditions.
In February 2024, the Compensation and Talent Committee reviewed the annual base salaries of our Named Executive Officers, considering a competitive market analysis prepared by Pearl Meyer and the recommendations of our CEO (except with respect to his own base salary), as well as other factors, including those listed above. Based on such consideration, the Compensation and Talent Committee determined to increase the 2024 base salaries for our Named Executive Officers as set forth below.
The following table sets forth 2023 and 2024 base salary rates for each of our Named Executive Officers.

Named Executive Officer | Position | 2023 Base Salary ($) | 2024 Base Salary ($) | Percentage Adjustment (%) |
Steven Huffman | Chief Executive Officer, President, and Director | 450,000 |  | 550,000 |  | 22.2 |  |
Jennifer Wong | Chief Operating Officer | 600,000 |  | 650,000 |  | 8.3 |  |
Andrew Vollero | Chief Financial Officer | 624,000 |  | 647,700 |  | 3.7 |  |
Christopher Slowe, Ph.D. | Chief Technology Officer | 450,000 |  | 500,000 |  | 11.1 |  |

Annual Cash Performance Bonuses
Historically, we have provided our executive officers with short-term, performance-based annual incentives through our annual performance-based cash bonus program. We believe that annual incentives:
•align the focused, short-term interests of us, our executives and our investors;
•drive us to achieve and exceed financial, strategic and other corporate goals;
•attract and retain the top talent in the industry; and
•recognize and reward individuals for contributing to success.
2024 Cash Performance Bonus Incentive Opportunity
Our Compensation and Talent Committee and Board of Directors may adjust the target bonus opportunities of our Named Executive Officers from time to time in their discretion. In February 2024, the Compensation and Talent Committee reviewed the bonus incentive opportunity for 2024 of our Named Executive Officers, after considering a competitive market analysis prepared by Pearl Meyer. Based on such consideration, the Compensation and Talent Committee kept the target annual bonus opportunity for 2024 unchanged for each of the Named Executive Officers with the exception of Ms. Wong, whose target annual bonus opportunity was increased from 60% in 2023 to 75% in 2024 to align with market benchmarks. We believe the allocation of cash compensation between base salary and target annual bonus opportunity for each Named Executive Officer provides the right mix of stable and variable pay in light of each Named Executive Officer’s role and their ability to affect our short-term corporate metrics. The compensation of Mr. Huffman, as our Chief Executive Officer, is weighted more heavily towards annual target bonus (which comprises more than half of his total target cash compensation) because he has a higher ability to influence corporate strategy. Ms. Wong’s target bonus percentage was similarly increased in 2024 to align with market benchmarks, and to recognize her ability as Chief Operating Officer to influence corporate performance.
The following table sets forth the 2023 and 2024 target annual bonus opportunities for each of our Named Executive Officers.

Named Executive Officer | 2023 Target Annual Bonus as Percentage of Salary (%) | 2024 Target Annual Bonus as Percentage of Salary (%) | 2024 Target Annual Bonus Opportunity ($) |
Steven Huffman | 125 |  | 125 |  | 687,500 |  |
Jennifer Wong | 60 |  | 75 |  | 487,500 |  |
Andrew Vollero | 60 |  | 60 |  | 388,620 |  |
Christopher Slowe, Ph.D. | 60 |  | 60 |  | 300,000 |  |
Benjamin Lee | 60 |  | 60 |  | 258,180 |  |

2024 Bonus Plan Pool Funding and Targets
The Compensation and Talent Committee based bonus funding in 2024 on key metrics relating to DAUq, revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA, as set forth below. The same performance metrics were used for our 2023 annual performance-based cash bonus plan. The Compensation and Talent Committee and our Board of Directors selected these metrics because they believe achievement of such metrics will best position us to grow long-term stockholder value, through an increase in our user base, user engagement, revenue, and business performance.

Metric | Weight (%) | 2024 Threshold (50% Payout) (in millions) ($) | 2024 Target (100% Payout) (in millions) ($) | 2024 Maximum (225% Payout) (in millions) ($) | 2024 Results (in millions) ($) | Resulting 2024 Payout (%) |

1 We define a DAUq as a user whom we can identify with a unique identifier who has visited a page on the Reddit website, www.reddit.com, or opened a Reddit application at least once during a 24-hour period. For additional information related to how we calculate DAUq, see page 53 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
2 We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding interest (income) expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and related taxes, other (income) expense, net, and certain other non-recurring or non-cash items impacting net income (loss) that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing business performance.
Key metric performance resulted in overall corporate bonus funding of 225% for 2024. In February 2025, our Compensation and Talent Committee approved the following bonus payouts based on corporate performance to each Named Executive Officer for 2024:

Name | 2024 Target Bonus Opportunity ($) | Percent of Target Bonus (%) | 2024 Bonus Payout ($) |
Steven Huffman | 687,500 |  | 225 |  | 1,546,875 |  |
Jennifer Wong | 487,500 |  | 225 |  | 1,096,875 |  |
Andrew Vollero | 388,620 |  | 225 |  | 874,395 |  |
Christopher Slowe, Ph.D. | 300,000 |  | 225 |  | 675,000 |  |
Benjamin Lee | 258,180 |  | 225 |  | 580,905 |  |

Equity Compensation: Stock Option and RSU Awards to Named Executive Officers
A significant portion of executive pay is delivered as long-term incentives (equity awards), which are designed to align executive officers’ interests with stockholder interests, promote retention through the reward of long-term company performance, and encourage ownership in Reddit’s stock. We have granted stock options and RSUs to our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, in order to attract and retain them, as well as to align their interests with the interests of our stockholders. The magnitudes of equity awards granted to our Named Executive Officers are based on a review of market data from our peer group, and take into account individual executive performance and existing equity awards, with a goal of providing a competitive market position and incentives for our executives to maintain a focus on long-term growth and company achievements.

Reddit, Inc. | 34 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
In February 2024, we granted annual equity awards to our Named Executive Officers under our long-term incentive program in the form of RSUs for shares of our Class A common stock. We use a mix of performance based cash bonuses and time-based RSUs to reward and retain our Named Executive Officers and align their incentives with those of our stockholders. We did not grant RSUs to each of Mr. Huffman and Ms. Wong in 2024 after taking into account the retentive and incentive value of their existing equity awards.
The RSUs granted to our Named Executive Officers in 2024 were as follows:

1 Unless otherwise noted, the RSUs vest in equal quarterly installments over one year, commencing on February 20, 2024, subject to the recipient’s continued service with us on each vesting date.
2 The amount reported in this column represents the grant date fair value of the award as computed in accordance with ASC 718. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the award reported in this column are set forth in Note 14 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report. Note that the amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for the applicable award, and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by our Named Executive Officer from such award.
3 In September 2024, our Compensation and Talent Committee granted Mr. Vollero (i) 179,092 RSUs which will vest in equal quarterly installments over three years, commencing on November 20, 2024, subject to Mr. Vollero’s continued service with us on each vesting date, and (ii) 89,546 RSUs which will vest on November 20, 2026, subject to Mr. Vollero’s continued service with us on that date.
Other Compensation Information
Welfare and Other Benefits
Our Named Executive Officers have the opportunity to participate in the same benefits programs offered to all U.S. employees. We provide health, dental, vision, life and disability insurance benefits to our Named Executive Officers, on the same terms and conditions as provided to all other eligible U.S. employees.
We also sponsor a broad-based 401(k) plan intended to provide eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to defer eligible compensation up to certain annual limits, and match 100% of the first $3,000 of each participant’s salary deferrals, and then 25% of the participant’s remaining deferrals, and these matching contributions are fully vested as of the date on which the contribution is made. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions (if any) made by us are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are generally not taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our 401(k) plan and match, on the same basis as our other employees.
We believe these benefits are consistent with the broad-based employee benefits provided at the companies with whom we compete for talent and therefore are important to attracting and retaining talented and experienced executive officers.

In addition to the employee benefits described above, ensuring the safety and security of our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, is highly important to us. We may provide personal security services to our Named Executive Officers as our security team deems appropriate. We do not consider these risk-based security measures to be personal benefits, but rather, reasonable and necessary expenses for the benefit of our Company and our stockholders. In 2024, Mr. Huffman and Ms. Wong received personal security services. From time to time, in the future, we may provide personal security services to our other Named Executive Officers. Further, we maintain a corporate apartment for use by our senior executive team when traveling to our San Francisco headquarters for business purposes in order to ease accessibility and not divert management’s attention during such travel. In 2024, Ms. Wong used the apartment in connection with business travel to our headquarters. The aggregate incremental cost of the personal security and housing services provided to each Named Executive Officer is reported in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table below.
We believe that these benefits are consistent with our overall executive compensation program, enable us to attract and retain talented and experienced executive officers, motivate stockholder value creation and provide competitive compensation packages to our Named Executive Officers. Our Compensation and Talent Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our Named Executive Officers. Based on these periodic reviews, perquisites may be awarded or adjusted on an individual basis.
Executive Employment Agreements
Each of our Named Executive Officers has entered into a written, at-will offer letter agreement with us, which provide for at-will employment and set forth the executive’s base salary, target variable compensation, and eligibility for employee benefits.
Post-Employment Compensation
We have also entered into a change in control and severance agreement with Mr. Huffman, Ms. Wong, and Mr. Vollero (each, a “Severance Agreement” and together, the “Severance Agreements”). Each of Dr. Slowe and Mr. Lee has entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which he is a beneficiary of our Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan (“COC Plan”). The Severance Agreements and COC Plan, as applicable, provide for payments and benefits to the applicable Named Executive Officer upon certain qualifying terminations, including in connection with a change of control. For more information, see the section titled “—Compensation Tables—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control as of December 31, 2024.”
Other Compensation Policies
Insider Trading Compliance Policy and Procedures
We have adopted Insider Trading Compliance Policy and Procedures (the “Insider Trading Policy”) that govern the purchase, sale, and other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers, employees, contractors, and consultants, and entities controlled by such individuals (subject to certain limitations), and by Reddit itself, that we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and the listing standards of NYSE. A copy of our Insider Trading Policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report.
Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans
Our directors, executive officers and other members of our executive team may elect to use a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act to conduct open market sales or purchases of our securities. Under Rule 10b5-1, insiders can adopt a prearranged stock trading plan at a time when they are not aware of material nonpublic information about us, and thereafter trade shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to the terms of their predetermined stock trading plan without regard to whether or not they are in possession of material nonpublic information about us at the time of the transaction. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by an individual when entering into the plan, without further direction from the individual while the plan is in effect.

Derivatives Trading, Hedging, and Pledging Policies
Pursuant to our Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, and members of our Board of Directors, among others, from speculating in our equity securities, including through the use of short sales, “sales against the box” or any equivalent transaction involving our equity securities. In addition, such individuals may not engage in any other hedging transactions, such as zero cost collars, forward sale contracts, and other similar or related arrangements, with respect to the securities that they hold. Following our initial public offering, we also prohibit the pledging of our common stock by our employees.
Compensation Recovery Policy
In February 2024, our Compensation and Talent Committee adopted a compensation recovery policy (the “Compensation Recovery Policy”) intended to comply with applicable SEC rules and NYSE listing standards. The Compensation Recovery Policy is administered by our Compensation and Talent Committee (in such capacity, the “Administrator”) and enables us to recover from current and former officers, and such additional employees as may be identified by the Administrator from time to time, incentive-based compensation (as defined in the Compensation Recovery Policy) in the event of an accounting restatement resulting from material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under federal securities laws. For more information, see the full text of our Compensation Recovery Policy, which is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report.
Tax and Accounting Considerations
Deductibility of Executive Compensation. The Compensation and Talent Committee generally takes into consideration the tax implications to us of our Named Executive Officer compensation program, including with respect to the tax deductibility of compensation paid under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). While our Compensation and Talent Committee may consider the deductibility of equity awards, cash, and other compensation as one factor in determining executive compensation, the Compensation and Talent Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to award compensation that it determines to be consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program even if the awards are not deductible by us for tax purposes.
Taxation of Parachute Payments. We do not provide, and have no obligation to provide, any executive officer, including any Named Executive Officer, with a “gross-up” or other reimbursement payment for any tax liability that he or she might owe because of the application of Section 280G, 4999, or 409A of the Code. If any of the payments or benefits payable to a Named Executive Officer would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, he or she would be entitled to receive either full payment of such payments and benefits or such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payments and benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to the Named Executive Officer.
Accounting Treatment. The Compensation and Talent Committee considers accounting implications when designing compensation plans and arrangements for our Named Executive Officers and other employees, including the impact of expenses being recognized in connection with equity-based awards, in determining the size and form of different equity-based awards. Chief among these is ASC 718, the standard which governs the accounting treatment of certain stock-based compensation. Among other things, ASC 718 requires us to record a compensation expense in our income statement for all equity awards granted to our Named Executive Officers and other employees. This compensation expense is based on the grant date “fair value” of the equity award and, in most cases, will be recognized ratably over the award’s requisite service period (which, generally, will correspond to the award’s vesting schedule). This compensation expense is also reported in the compensation tables below, even though recipients may never realize any value from their equity awards.

1 These values assume that the fair market value of the Class B common stock underlying certain of the stock options, which is not listed or approved for trading on or with any securities exchange or association, is equal to the fair market value of our Class A common stock. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible into one share of Class A common stock at any time at the option of the holder or upon certain transfer of such shares.
2 The aggregate value realized upon the exercise of a stock option represents the difference between the aggregate exercise price and (i) for options exercised prior to the close of our initial public offering, the aggregate fair market value on the date of exercise and (ii) for options exercised on or after the close of our initial public offering, the aggregate closing price of a share of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on the date of exercise. Amounts shown are presented on an aggregate basis for all exercises that occurred during 2024.
3 The aggregate value realized upon the vesting and settlement of an RSU is based on (i) the fair market value on the date of vesting for RSUs settled prior to the close of our initial public offering and (ii) the closing price of a share of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on the date of vesting for RSUs settled on or after the close of initial public offering (which, for RSUs vested in connection with our initial public offering, was the initial public offering price), and if the vesting day falls on a weekend or holiday, the trading day immediately prior to the date of vesting.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control as of December 31, 2024

1 The severance amount related to base salary and annual bonus was determined based on the base salaries and target annual bonuses as in effect on December 31, 2024.
2 The value of accelerated options is calculated based on the per share closing price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on December 31, 2024 ($163.44) less, if applicable, the exercise price of each outstanding stock option. The value of accelerated RSUs is calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs accelerated by $163.44, the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on December 31, 2024.
Pay Versus Performance
Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K requires us to provide the following disclosure regarding compensation for our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer (“PEO”), and the average compensation for our other non-PEO Named Executive Officers (“non-PEO NEOs”). The amounts shown for “compensation actually paid” have been calculated in accordance with SEC rules and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by any of our Named Executive Officers. The table includes adjustments as described in the footnotes and also provides information on our cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”), the cumulative TSR of our peer group, net income, and our company-selected measure, which is revenue. Our initial public offering occurred in March 2024, and we do not present information for years prior to when we became a public reporting company. The information contained in this “—Pay Versus Performance” section will not be incorporated into any of our filings under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except to the extent we specifically incorporate such information by reference therein.

1 Amounts shown are the total compensation as calculated in the Summary Compensation Table for our Chief Executive Officer (Mr. Huffman) and the average for our non-PEO NEOs (Messrs. Vollero, Slowe, and Lee and Ms. Wong).
2 Amounts shown reflect “compensation actually paid” for our Chief Executive Officer and the average compensation actually paid for our non-PEO NEOs, calculated in accordance with SEC rules and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received. As required, the dollar amounts include (among other items) unvested amounts of equity compensation that may be realizable in future periods, and as such, the dollar amounts shown do not fully represent the actual final amount of compensation earned or actually paid to either individual during the applicable years. The adjustments made to the Summary Compensation Table to determine compensation actually paid (with fair value measured at year-end rather than at grant) are shown in the table below.

| CEO |  | Average Non-PEO NEOs |
Year | 12/31/2024 ($) |  | 12/31/2024 ($) |
Total Compensation from Summary Compensation Table | 2,613,869 |  |  | 6,947,158 |  |

Difference in fair values between prior year-end fair values and vest date fair values for awards granted in prior years | 123,550,450 |  |  | 23,781,247 |  |
Compensation Actually Paid (as calculated) | 861,753,126 |  |  | 155,342,721 |  |

No dividends or earnings were paid, and there were no changes in pension values as we do not sponsor any pensions.
3 Stock options are valued as of the applicable measurement date using a Black-Scholes model, with assumptions consistent with those used for grant date fair value under ASC 718.
4 Total Shareholder Return reflects the cumulative total return of an initial $100 investment in our Class A common stock, measured from March 21, 2024 (the date our Class A common stock began trading on the NYSE). Historic stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance. There were no dividends or other earnings paid in the covered fiscal years.
5 The peer group used for the purpose of this disclosure in each covered year is the Dow Jones Internet Composite Index (DJINET) which we also use in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report. This column assumes $100.00 was invested in this peer group on March 21, 2024 (same period as used for footnote (4) above).
6 Reflects the Net Income reported in our audited financial statements for the fiscal year.
7 Revenue, in our view, represents the most important financial performance measure used to link compensation actually paid to our CEO and non-PEO NEOs to our performance for 2024 because it was weighted as 40% of our annual cash bonus incentive opportunity funding in 2024, the highest weighted financial measure for such funding.

Most Important Measures for Determining Named Executive Officer Pay
The measures listed below were the most important performance measures used to align the compensation actually paid to our Named Executive Officers in 2024 with our performance.
•Revenue
•DAUq
•Adjusted EBITDA
Relationship between Pay and Performance
We completed our initial public offering in 2024. Compensation actually paid, as defined by SEC rules, reflects adjustments to the value of equity awards based on factors such as year-end stock price, but does not represent actual payouts. Compensation actually paid generally moves with our stock price. While net income was not part of our 2024 compensation program, revenue served as the highest-weighted financial performance measure under our annual bonus incentive opportunity. The relationship between TSR, the financial measures shown, and compensation actually paid is expected to become more meaningful over time as we establish a longer track record as a public company.
SEC rules require that “compensation actually paid” include the fair value of unvested awards as of December 31, 2024, which would be $861.8 million for our Chief Executive Officer (even though this value does not represent the amount of compensation actually earned, realized, or received) compared to $2.6 million in the Summary Compensation Table. The “average compensation actually paid” for our non-PEO NEOs, which also includes the fair value of unvested awards as of December 31, 2024, was $155.3 million (which also does not reflect the amount of compensation actually earned, realized, or received) compared to a Summary Compensation Table average of $6.9 million. Before any value is realized by the Named Executive Officers with respect to equity awards, certain vesting conditions must be satisfied as described above in “—Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Year-End Table.” The differences between CAP and Summary Compensation Table figures were primarily driven by significant increases in our stock price from our March 2024 IPO through year-end. Net loss for 2024 was $(484.3) million and revenue was $1.3 billion.

Equity Compensation Plan Information
The following table presents information as of December 31, 2024, with respect to compensation plans under which shares of our common stock may be issued.

Total | Class A and Class B | 25,862,918 | 30.07 |  | 41,673,769 |  |

1 The weighted-average exercise price is calculated based solely on outstanding stock options. It does not reflect the shares that will be issued in connection with the settlement of RSUs or PRSUs, since RSUs and PRSUs have no exercise price.
2 Includes the 2017 Equity Incentive and Grant Plan (the “2017 Plan”), the 2024 Plan and the 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”).
3 Includes the 2012 Stock Option and Grant Plan (as amended, the “2012 Plan”) and the 2017 Plan.
4 Includes the Spiketrap Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Spiketrap Plan”), the Dubsmash Inc. 2018 Stock Plan (the “Dubsmash Plan”), the Spell, Inc. 2017 Stock Plan (the “Spell Plan”).
5 Consists of 36,711,788 shares of Class A common stock available under the 2024 Plan and 4,950,981 shares of Class A common stock available under the ESPP. There are no shares of common stock available for issuance under our 2012 Plan or 2017 Plan, but these plans continue to govern the terms of options, RSUs and PRSUs granted thereunder. Stock options, RSUs or other stock awards granted under the 2012 Plan, 2017 Plan, Spiketrap Plan, Dubsmash Plan or the Spell Plan that are forfeited or repurchased become available for issuance under the 2024 Plan. Any shares of Class B common stock that are subject to outstanding awards under the 2012 Plan or 2017 Plan that are issuable upon the exercise of stock options that expire or become unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full will generally be available for future grant and issuance as shares of Class A common stock under our 2024 Plan. In addition, the number of shares reserved for issuance under our 2024 Plan increased automatically by 5% on January 1, 2025 and will increase automatically on the first day of January of each year for a period of up to ten years commencing on January 1, 2025 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2034 by the number of shares equal to 5% of the total outstanding shares of our common stock (on an as converted basis) as of the immediately preceding December 31 or a lower number approved by our Board of Directors. The number of shares reserved for issuance under our ESPP increased automatically by 1% on January 1, 2025 and will increase automatically on the first day of January of each year for a period of up to ten years commencing on January 1, 2025 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2034 by the number of shares equal to 1% of the total outstanding shares of our common stock (on an as converted basis) as of the immediately preceding December 31 or a lower number approved by our Board of Directors or the Compensation and Talent Committee. These increases are not reflected in the table above.

•by toll-free telephone at 1-800-690-6903, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 8, 2025 (please follow the instructions on your proxy card or voting instruction form from your broker provided to you by email or over the internet);
•by completing and mailing your proxy card (if you received printed proxy materials) to be received prior to the Annual Meeting; or
•by attending the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/RDDT2025, where you may vote and submit questions during the meeting. Please have your Notice, proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials in hand when you visit the website.
Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also vote by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.
If you are a street name stockholder, you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank, or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee in order to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Street name stockholders should generally be able to vote by returning a voting instruction form and may be able to vote by telephone or on the internet, depending on the voting process of your broker, bank, or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares live at the virtual Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee.
Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?
Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy any time before the Annual Meeting by:
•entering a new vote by internet or by telephone;
•completing and returning a later-dated proxy card;
•notifying the Corporate Secretary of Reddit via email to corporatesecretary@reddit.com; or
•attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change or revoke your vote.
What do I need to do to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting?
The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders, which we believe makes it easier for stockholders to attend and participate fully and equally in the Annual Meeting and enables participation from our global community of Redditors. Stockholders of record and street name stockholders with a legal proxy from their broker, bank or other nominee will be able to attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/RDDT2025, which will allow such stockholders to submit questions during the meeting and vote shares electronically at the meeting.
We designed the format of the virtual Annual Meeting to ensure that our stockholders are afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting and to enhance stockholder access, participation, and communication through online tools. The virtual format facilitates stockholder attendance and participation by enabling stockholders to participate fully and equally from any location around the world.
During the meeting, you will have the ability to submit questions real-time via the virtual meeting website, with a limit of one question per stockholder. We will answer questions submitted in accordance with the meeting rules of conduct in the time allotted for the meeting. Only questions pertaining to the proposals to be acted on at the Annual Meeting will be answered, and we reserve the right to exclude questions that are, among other things, irrelevant to meeting matters, irrelevant to the business of Reddit, related to material nonpublic information of Reddit, related to personal matters or grievances, derogatory or in bad taste, related to pending or threatened litigation, or that are otherwise inappropriate (as determined by the Chairperson of the Annual Meeting or Corporate Secretary). Questions should be succinct and cover only one topic. Questions that are substantially similar may be grouped and answered together to avoid repetition.
To participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice, proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials to attend the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting webcast will begin promptly at 10 a.m. Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.
What if during the check-in time or during the meeting I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting website?
We will have technicians to assist you if you experience technical difficulties accessing the virtual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties while accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, a technical assistance phone number will be made available on the virtual meeting registration page 15 minutes prior to the start time of the Annual Meeting.
What is the effect of giving a proxy?
Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our Board of Directors. Steven Huffman and Benjamin Lee have been designated as proxy holders by our Board of Directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed, and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors as described above. If any matters not described in this Proxy Statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting pursuant to our Bylaws, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned or postponed, the proxy holders can vote the shares on the new Annual Meeting date as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy instructions, as described above.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?
In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we have elected to furnish our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report, primarily via the internet. The Notice containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials is first being mailed on or about April 28, 2025 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice (www.proxyvote.com). Stockholders may also request to receive proxy materials for this Annual Meeting or future meetings of stockholders in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail by following the instructions contained in the Notice. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of our proxy materials on the internet to help reduce the environmental impact and cost of our annual meetings of stockholders.
What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice, proxy card or voting instruction form?
It generally means that some of your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. Please provide voting instructions for all Notices, proxy cards and voting instruction forms you receive.
How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting?
Our Board of Directors and employees are soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting. All expenses associated with this solicitation will be borne by us. We will reimburse brokers or other nominees for reasonable expenses that they incur in sending our proxy materials to you if a broker, bank or other nominee holds shares of our common stock on your behalf. In addition, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.
How may my brokerage firm or other intermediary vote my shares if I fail to provide timely directions?
Brokerage firms and other intermediaries holding shares of our common stock in street name for beneficial owners are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by such beneficial owners. In the absence of timely directions, your broker will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole “routine” matter: the proposal to ratify the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. Your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are “non-routine” matters, absent direction from you. We refer to the absence of a vote, including on a non-routine proposal, where the broker has not received instructions as a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted because the broker did not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner and lacked discretionary authority to vote the shares. Broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present and have no effect on the outcome of the matters voted upon. Accordingly, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.
Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the Notice or proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy?
We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding” which will reduce our printing costs and postage fees. Under this procedure, multiple stockholders residing at the same address will receive a single copy of the Notice or, as applicable, proxy materials unless the stockholder notified us that they wish to receive multiple copies of such materials. Stockholders may revoke their consent to householding at any time by contacting Broadridge Financial Services, Inc. (“Broadridge”) either by calling toll-free at 1-866-540-7095, or by writing to Broadridge Financial Services, Inc., Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. W e will remove you from the householding program within 30 days of receipt of your request, following which you will receive multiple copies of such materials.
If you are a stockholder of record, upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate copy of the Notice or proxy materials to such stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these materials. To receive a separate copy of the Notice or proxy materials, such stockholder may contact Broadridge by:

Internet: www.proxyvote.com |  | Telephone: 1-800-579-1639 |  | Email: sendmaterial@proxyvote.com

Additionally, stockholders of record who share the same address and receive multiple copies of the Notice or proxy materials can request a single copy of such materials by contacting Broadridge at the address, email address, or telephone number above.
Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank or other nominee to request information about householding.
Why did I receive a full set of proxy materials in the mail instead of a notice regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials?
We are providing stockholders who have previously requested to receive paper copies of the proxy materials with paper copies of the proxy materials instead of a Notice. If you have previously requested to receive paper copies but no longer wish to receive them, you may elect to receive all future proxy materials electronically via email or the Internet. Electing electronic delivery will help reduce our environmental impact and the costs incurred by us in mailing proxy materials. To sign up for electronic delivery, please follow the instructions provided with your proxy materials and on your Notice to vote using the Internet and, when prompted, indicate that you agree to receive or access stockholder communications electronically in future years.
What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?
Stockholder Proposals
Stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals in writing to our Corporate Secretary in a timely manner.
For a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written proposal, delivered to or mailed and received at our principal executive offices, not later than December 29, 2025. In addition, stockholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials.

Reddit, Inc. | 62 | 2025 Proxy Statement

Table of Contents
Our Bylaws also establish a process for stockholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders but do not intend for the proposal to be included in our proxy statement. Among other things, our Bylaws provide that for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting of stockholders: (i) timely notice of such business must be provided to our Corporate Secretary and such notice must contain the information specified in our Bylaws and be updated and supplemented as required by our Bylaws, (ii) such business must be a proper matter for stockholder action, and (iii) if a solicitation notice has been provided, a proxy statement and form of proxy must be properly delivered in accordance with our Bylaws. For more information, see the section titled “—Availability of Bylaws.” To be timely for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice, delivered to or mailed and received at our principal executive offices:
•not earlier February 9, 2026; and
•not later than March 11, 2026.
In the event that we hold the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting, notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received no earlier than the 120th day before the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the later of the following two dates:
•the 90th day prior to the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders; or
•the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders is first made.
To comply with our Bylaws as well as the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders must ensure that our Corporate Secretary receives written notice, delivered to or mailed and received at our principal executive offices, that sets forth all information required by our Bylaws and by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act within the time frames set forth above.
If a stockholder who has properly notified us of their intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders does not appear to present their proposal at such annual meeting, we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such annual meeting.
Recommendation and Nomination of Director Candidates
Our Bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. To nominate a director, the stockholder must provide the information required by our Bylaws. In addition, the stockholder must give timely notice to our Corporate Secretary in accordance with our Bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Corporate Secretary within the time periods described above under the section titled “—Stockholder Proposals” for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement.
Availability of Bylaws
A copy of our Bylaws is available on our website at investor.redditinc.com and via the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. You may also obtain a copy of the relevant Bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates by sending a written request to our Investor Relations team at corporatesecretary@reddit.com.

Other Matters and
Additional Information
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, officers, and any persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and written representations from the directors and executive officers, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements were timely met in the year ended December 31, 2024, except, due to administrative error: (i) a late Form 4 filing made on behalf of Christopher Slowe, dated July 30, 2024, to report the conversion of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock by the Slowe Family Trust on May 14, 2024, (ii) a late Form 4 filing made on behalf of Michael Seibel, dated July 30, 2024, to report the conversion of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common by the Michael William Seibel Revocable Trust on May 24, 2024, and (iii) a late Form 4 filing made on behalf of Michelle Reynolds, dated August 29, 2024, to report the award of restricted stock units on May 30, 2024 .
