What Happened?
Shares of online community and discussion platform Reddit (NYSE: RDDT) jumped 5.2% in the morning session after the company disclosed amendments to its credit and guarantee agreement.
The updated terms extend the maturity date of the company's revolving credit facility to July 1, 2030, while also reducing the total commitments to $500 million. This move provides Reddit with greater financial flexibility and a longer runway for its debt obligations, a development viewed favorably by investors. The amendments also included a modification to its financial covenants, signaling a strengthened financial position. The news appears to have bolstered investor confidence in the company's financial management and long-term stability.
After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $158.05, up 3.8% from previous close.
