Reddit Inc (NYSE:RDDT) shares are trading lower Thursday on the heels of the company’s fourth-quarter financial results. The stock is off the lows of the session after multiple analysts raised price targets following the print.

• Q4 Revenue: $427.71 million, versus estimates of $405.26 million

• Q4 EPS: 36 cents, versus estimates of 25 cents

Total revenue was up 71% on a year-over-year basis. Daily active unique users (DAUq) increased 39% year-over-year to 101.7 million. U.S. daily actives declined on a quarter-over-quarter basis from 48.2 million to 48 million. Weekly actives users totaled nearly 380 million in the quarter. 

The daily actives number appears to be weighing on shares. In a letter to shareholders, Reddit said it experienced “some volatility with Google Search triggered by a periodic algorithm change.” The company noted that traffic from search has regained momentum in the first quarter. 

“What happened wasn't unusual—referrals from search fluctuate from time to time, and they primarily affect logged-out users. Our teams have navigated numerous algorithm updates and did an excellent job adapting to these latest changes effectively,” the company said. 

Reddit generated an operating cash flow of $90 million and free cash flow of $89.2 million in the quarter. The company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $1.84 billion.

“It was another strong quarter as we accomplished exciting milestones across revenue and international growth,” said Steve Huffman, co-founder and CEO of Reddit. 

“However, what’s most exciting is still ahead. We’re focused on providing a best-in-class experience for finding community and trusted information, proving that Reddit is for everyone, everywhere.”
