Expectations

Two Questions That Matter

The print will turn on these two things.

Will Reddit's EPS exceed the consensus estimate of $1.77?

A beat on EPS would reinforce investor confidence in the company's profitability and growth trajectory.

What guidance will management provide regarding revenue growth and user engagement?

Management's outlook on these metrics will be crucial for assessing future performance and investor sentiment.

Edge

What the Street Is Missing

Why consensus could be wrong

The Street may be underestimating the potential for Reddit's advertising revenue to rebound, given recent trends in digital ad spending.

Supporting Evidence

Reddit's user engagement metrics have shown resilience, which could translate into stronger ad revenue than expected.

Options pricing suggests a larger move than historical averages, indicating potential mispricing of risk.

Recent industry reports indicate a recovery in digital advertising, which could benefit Reddit more than anticipated.

Key Risk

If user engagement metrics show a significant decline, it could undermine the current bullish consensus.

Edge

Thesis-Break Levels

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.

The market is debating whether Reddit can sustain its recent earnings momentum amidst competitive pressures and changing user behaviors.

Bull Confirmed If

An EPS of $1.85 or higher alongside revenue exceeding $870M would confirm the bull case.

Bear Confirmed If

An EPS below $1.67 or revenue falling short of $835M would confirm the bear case.
