Summary · why it matters

Reddit leads the 2026 year-to-date scoreboard among social media stocks, down just 14%, narrowly ahead of Pinterest which is down 15%, while Snap has collapsed 41%. Reddit's first-quarter earnings per share of $1.01 nearly doubled the consensus estimate of $0.56, with ad revenue surging 74% year over year. The House passage of the KIDS Act threatens sector-wide compliance costs, with Reddit's 40% EBITDA margin offering the most cushion and Snap the least. Pinterest posted solid first-quarter results with revenue crossing $1.01 billion and monthly active users reaching a record 631 million, while Snap barely beat on revenue and swung to a net loss with North American daily active users falling 7%. All three stocks remain in the red for the year, and the next major data points will be second-quarter earnings reports.
