(Reuters) - Reddit co-founder and CEO Steve Huffman beneficially owns 62.4 million Class A shares of the social media company, a regulatory filing showed on Friday.

Those shares were equivalent to 61.5% of the share class, based on a calculation that includes factors such as the right to acquire more shares by exercising stock options and the conversion of Class B shares into Class A shares, according to the filing.

Reddit, whose initial public offering in March valued the company at $6.4 billion, will report quarterly results for the first time on Tuesday.
