In response, Anson Funds has withdrawn its director nominations and proposal to declassify the Board. The company will put forward its own proposal to declassify the Board at the upcoming Annual Meeting.

Campbell brings expertise in consumer-facing technology and brand development, which aligns with Match Group's user-focused growth strategy.

Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) announced significant governance changes, including the appointment of Darrell Cavens to its Board of Directors and plans to seek stockholder approval for board declassification. Cavens, a seasoned e-commerce executive with nearly 20 years of leadership experience, brings expertise in digital commerce and technology-driven innovation from his roles as Zulily co-founder/CEO and positions at Qurate Retail, Microsoft, and Blue Nile.

The company also addressed a challenge from Anson Funds, which nominated three directors for election. The Board recommended against Anson's nominees, noting that Anson owns less than 0.5% of company stock and recently reduced its holdings by 30%. Match Group will provide detailed recommendations in its upcoming 2025 proxy statement.

If stockholders approve the declassification proposal, directors elected at the 2026 Annual Meeting and thereafter will serve one-year terms instead of the current staggered three-year terms.

Anson Funds Management LP has nominated three directors - Fumbi Chima, Laura Lee, and Kelley Morrell - for election at Match Group's (NASDAQ: MTCH) 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The nomination comes amid concerns over Match's long-term underperformance.

In a letter to stockholders, Anson Funds highlighted several critical issues, including:

• An outdated and insular board with interlocking relationships
• Board's inadequate qualifications to oversee a modern technology company serving young adults
• Significant underperformance compared to broader market indices
• Four CEO changes in the past five years
• Board's reluctance to engage with stockholders regarding fresh perspectives and expertise
