Christopher Brian Slowe, Reddit, Inc.'s Chief Technology Officer, completed a set of equity transactions in early March 2026 that included a sale, an exercise of options and a substantial gift of shares.
On March 9, 2026, Slowe sold 7,500 shares of Reddit's Class A Common Stock for roughly $1.29 million. The disposals were carried out across multiple trades at prices spanning $133.45 to $138.86 per share.
Those sales were accompanied by a simultaneous exercise of stock options covering 7,500 Class A shares. The filings indicate the exercise price was $7.92 and that the exercise itself was recorded at a price of $0.00. After the exercise, Slowe's direct holdings rose to 89,043 shares before the later gift transaction.
On March 10, 2026, Slowe executed gift transactions, donating 144,644 shares of Class A Common Stock. Following the sale, exercise and the gift, Slowe directly holds 38,413 shares, while 164,828 shares remain held indirectly by The Slowe Family Trust dated January 26, 2012.
Slowe's portfolio moves come against a broader backdrop of volatility for the company's stock. Reddit shares have fallen 46% over the prior six months. At the same time, an InvestingPro analysis referenced in company materials indicates the stock is trading below its Fair Value and lists Reddit among the most undervalued opportunities on that platform. The company also offers a Pro Research Report covering more than 1,400 U.S. equities for investors seeking deeper valuation analysis.
Corporate results released for the fourth quarter of 2025 underline strong topline and profit metric expansion. Reddit reported revenue of $725.6 million in Q4 2025, a 70% increase from the year-earlier quarter. Adjusted EBITDA climbed 112% year-over-year and exceeded analyst expectations by 16%.
Following the quarterly disclosure, several brokerages weighed in. Needham reiterated its Buy rating and kept its $300 price target. Truist Securities raised its price target to $275 from $270 while maintaining a Buy rating and described Reddit's performance as a "Classic Beat & Raise." Separately, Citizens retained a Market Outperform rating and pointed to robust ad revenue momentum, noting 75% year-over-year growth in advertising revenue in the fourth quarter, though the firm also highlighted a decline in global time spent on the platform, including a 10.5% year-over-year drop in the U.S. in January.
Alongside the financial strength, Reddit announced a new $1 billion share buyback program aimed at returning capital to shareholders.
Regulatory developments present a counterweight to the positive financial news. Reddit was fined £14.47 million by the U.K.'s Information Commissioner's Office for improperly handling children's personal information. The ICO criticized the company for not implementing age verification until July 2025 and for relying on self-declaration, which the regulator found inadequate.
After the sequence of insider transactions and the company's mixed operational and regulatory signals, Slowe's direct and indirect holdings are now publicly disclosed as 38,413 and 164,828 shares respectively.
