Holders of Class A and Class B common stock (voting together as a single class) elected eight directors to serve until the 2027 annual meeting, ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, and approved, on a non‑binding advisory basis, the compensation of its named executive officers (say‑on‑pay).

Why It Matters
These results confirm Reddit’s board composition and provide continuity in governance and financial oversight for the coming year. Ratification of KPMG ensures continuity in the company’s external audit for 2026. The strong advisory support for executive compensation signals majority shareholder approval of the company’s pay practices, though the vote is non‑binding. Investors may note the variation in withheld votes for certain directors (e.g., higher withheld votes for Steven O. Newhouse), which could reflect shareholder concerns worth monitoring in future governance disclosures.
