Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) lifts profit as Hinge growth offsets Tinder softness
Match Group reported Q2 2026 revenue of $853.1 million, down 1% year over year, while net income attributable to shareholders increased 36% to $170.5 million and diluted EPS was $0.70. For the first half of 2026, revenue rose 1% to $1.72 billion and net income grew 39% to $337.4 million.
Profitability improved mainly from a 16% reduction in cost of revenue as users shifted from app-store to alternative payment methods, lowering in-app purchase fees. Q2 Adjusted EBITDA increased 14% to $331.3 million, and first-half Adjusted EBITDA rose 19% to $674.2 million.
Tinder revenue was essentially flat with 5% fewer Payers but higher revenue per Payer; Hinge Direct Revenue grew 22% on 17% Payer growth and higher RPP; Everyone Everywhere revenue declined 17%, partly from Apple’s temporary removal of the Azar app and a $25.2 million Azar trade-name impairment. First-half cash from operations reached $564.2 million, funding $245.4 million of share repurchases, $90.9 million of dividends, and settlement of $423.9 million of 2026 Exchangeable Notes. At June 30, 2026, long-term debt, net, was $3.55 billion and cash and equivalents were $580.6 million. The Irish Data Protection Commission issued a draft GDPR decision on Tinder with a proposed fine between €8 million and €11 million, for which a $9.1 million provision was recorded.

6 terms
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Match Group"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Exchangeable Notes financial
"0.875 % Exchangeable Senior Notes due June 15, 2026 and 2.00 % Exchangeable Senior Notes"
Exchangeable notes are a type of financial asset that can be converted into shares of a different company or entity at a later time, often at a pre-set price or upon certain conditions. They matter to investors because they offer a way to potentially benefit from the growth of another company while initially providing more safety or flexibility than directly owning stocks. Think of them as a convertible ticket that can be exchanged for ownership in another business if certain opportunities arise.
in-app purchase fees financial
"in-app purchase fees consists of the amortization of in-app purchase fees"
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulatory
"examining Tinder’s compliance with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)"
A European law that sets strict rules for how organizations collect, hold and use the personal data of people in the European Union and European Economic Area. For investors this functions like a safety inspection for handling customer information: firms that follow the rules avoid heavy fines, legal costs and damage to reputation, while breaches or non‑compliance can reduce revenue, increase liabilities and harm long‑term value.
Pillar II minimum tax regime regulatory
"implement the OECD's international tax framework, including the Pillar II minimum tax regime"

designed to help people make meaningful connections. Our global portfolio of brands includes Tinder®,
Hinge®, Match®, Meetic®, OkCupid®, Pairs™, Plenty Of Fish®, Azar®, BLK®, and more, each built to
increase our users’ likelihood of connecting with others. Through our trusted brands, we provide tailored
services to meet the varying preferences of our users. Match Group has three operating segments,
Tinder, Hinge, and Everyone Everywhere.
As used herein, “Match Group,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms refer to Match
Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company, all entities that are wholly-owned by the Company and all entities in which the Company
has a controlling financial interest. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
In management’s opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect, in
management’s opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for
the fair presentation of our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations and
consolidated cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements and notes thereto included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions
during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These
estimates, judgments, and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and
expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from
these estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related
to: the fair values of cash equivalents; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the
determination of the allowance for credit losses; the carrying value of right-of-use assets; the useful
lives and recoverability of definite-lived intangible assets and property and equipment; the recoverability
of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; the fair value of equity securities without readily
determinable fair values; contingencies; unrecognized tax benefits; the valuation allowance for deferred
income tax assets; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for stock-based awards, among others. The
Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets, and
other factors that the Company considers relevant.
Investments in equity securities, other than those of our consolidated subsidiaries, are accounted
for at fair value or under the measurement alternative of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s
(“FASB”) equity securities guidance, with any changes to fair value recognized within other income
(expense), net each reporting period. Under the measurement alternative, equity investments without
readily determinable fair values are carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes
resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or a similar investment of
the same issuer; value is generally determined based on a market approach as of the transaction date.

MATCH GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
A security will be considered identical or similar if it has identical or similar rights to the equity securities
held by the Company. The Company reviews its equity securities without readily determinable fair
values for impairment each reporting period when there are qualitative factors or events that indicate
possible impairment. Factors we consider in making this determination include negative changes in
industry and market conditions, financial performance, business prospects, and other relevant events
and factors. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company prepares quantitative assessments of
the fair value of our investments in equity securities, which require judgment and the use of estimates.
When our assessment indicates that the fair value of the investment is below the carrying value, the
Company writes down the security to its fair value and records the corresponding charge within other
income (expense), net.
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services are transferred to our customers,
and in the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for
those services.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of advance payments that are received or are contractually due in
advance of the Company's performance. The Company’s deferred revenue is reported on a contract by
contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current
when the term of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of our performance
obligation is one year or less. The current deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2025 was
$151.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $146.6 million of
revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2025. The current
deferred revenue balance at June 30, 2026 is $152.7 million. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025,
there was no
Practical Expedients and Exemptions
The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts
with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts with variable consideration that is
allocated entirely to unsatisfied performance obligations or to a wholly unsatisfied promise accounted
for under the series guidance, and (iii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the
amount which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-04, which
clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments
should be accounted for as induced conversions or extinguishment of convertible debt. We adopted
ASU No. 2024-04 effective January 1, 2026. We adopted the new standard on a prospective basis. No
induced conversions have occurred subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2024-04.
Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, which requires more detailed disclosures
about specified categories of expenses, including employee compensation, within certain expense
captions presented on the face of the income statement, and disclosure of selling expenses. ASU No.
2024-03 is effective for our annual reporting on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2027 and
within interim periods beginning on our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2028. The new
standard may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. We expect
ASU No. 2024-03 to only impact our disclosures with no impact to our results of operations, cash flows,
and financial condition. We are currently evaluating when we will adopt the ASU.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, which updates the accounting for internal
use software. The ASU updates the criteria that must be met for entities to begin capitalizing software
costs. ASU No. 2025-06 is effective for the Company starting January 1, 2028. The new standard may
be adopted prospectively, retrospectively, or via modified prospective transition method, and early
adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating ASU No. 2025-06 and its impact on our results of
operations, cash flows, and financial condition and evaluating when we will adopt the ASU.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the annual effective income tax rate and
applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related
to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported
net of their related tax effects, is individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which it
occurs. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, and judgment on the
realizability of beginning-of-the-year deferred tax assets in future years or unrecognized tax benefits is
recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
The computation of the estimated annual effective income tax rate at each interim period requires
certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss)
for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in foreign
jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax
assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision or
benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional
information is obtained or our tax environment changes. To the extent that the estimated annual
effective income tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included
in the income tax provision in the quarter in which the change occurs.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded an income tax
provision of $44.1 million and $32.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and
2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $77.8 million and $54.6 million, respectively.
The effective tax rates for the three-months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 of 21 % and 20 %,
respectively, were at or lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the lower tax rate on U.S. income
derived from foreign sources and research credits. These effects were partially offset by state income
taxes, nondeductible stock-based compensation, and foreign income taxed at higher rates. The
effective tax rates for the six-months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 of 19 % and 18 %, respectively,
were lower than the statutory rate for the same reasons. The six-months ended June 30, 2026 and
2025 also included excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards.
Match Group is routinely under audit by federal, state, local, and foreign authorities in the area of
income tax. These audits include a review of the timing and amount of income and deductions, and the
allocation of such income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue
Service (“IRS”) has completed its audit of the Company’s federal income tax returns for years through
December 31, 2019. Although the 2020 and 2021 tax years are closed to assessment, adjustments to
taxable income may still be made if it impacts net operating loss or credit carryforwards brought forward
from that year. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for tax years
beginning with 2015. Although we believe that we have adequately reserved for our uncertain tax
positions, the final tax outcome of these matters may vary significantly from our estimates.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and
penalties, were $70.9 million and $64.0 million, respectively. If unrecognized tax benefits at June 30,
2026 are subsequently recognized, income tax expense would be reduced by $69.9 million, net of
related deferred tax assets and interest. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2025 was $58.5
million.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits
in the income tax provision. Accruals of interest and penalties for the three months ended June 30,
2026 and 2025 were not material. At June 30, 2026, noncurrent income taxes payable includes accrued
interest and penalties of $4.8 million. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2025 was $3.6
million.

Equity securities without readily determinable fair values
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the Company’s investments in
equity securities without readily determinable fair values totaled $145.3 million and $33.3 million,
respectively, and is included in “Other non-current assets” in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet. The increase is primarily due to a $100.0 million minority investment in Sniffies.
The cumulative downward adjustments (including impairments) and upward adjustments to the
carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values through June 30, 2026 were
$1.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025,
there were no
values.
For all equity securities without readily determinable fair values as of June 30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, the Company has elected the measurement alternative. For both the three and six
months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, under the measurement alternative election, the Company did
not identify any fair value adjustments using observable price changes in orderly transactions for an
identical or similar investment of the same issuer.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company categorizes its financial instruments measured at fair value into a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value
hierarchy are:
•Level 1: Observable inputs obtained from independent sources, such as quoted market prices
for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
•Level 2: Other inputs, which are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices
for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar
assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs that are derived principally from or
corroborated by observable market data. The fair values of the Company’s Level 2 financial
assets are primarily obtained from observable market prices for identical underlying securities
that may not be actively traded. Certain of these securities may have different market prices
from multiple market data sources, in which case an average market price is used.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and require the
Company to develop its own assumptions, based on the best information available in the
circumstances, about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the assets or
liabilities.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment,
and right-of-use assets, are adjusted to fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized. The
Company’s financial assets, comprised of equity securities without readily determinable fair values, are
adjusted to fair value when observable price changes are identified or an impairment charge is
recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 3 inputs.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, Apple removed the Azar app from the Apple App Store
following a February 6, 2026 update to Apple’s App Review Guidelines. Updates were subsequently
made to the app to comply with the updated guidelines, which led to the reinstatement of a new version
of the Azar app. Based on these recent events, the financial outlook for Azar changed and the Company
performed impairment assessments for the non-financial assets associated with Azar. An impairment
charge of $25.2 million related to the Azar trade name was recognized in the quarter ended March 31,

Credit Facility
Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Match Group Holdings II, LLC (“MG Holdings II”), is the borrower
under a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for a revolving credit
facility (the “Credit Facility”).
The Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $500 million. The maturity date of the Credit Facility
is the earlier of (x) March 20, 2029 and (y) the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the
existing senior notes due 2027, 2028, or 2029, or any new indebtedness used to refinance such senior
notes that matures prior to the date that is 91 days after March 20, 2029, in each case if and only if at
least $250 million in aggregate principal amount of such debt is outstanding on such date. At both
June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no 0.6
outstanding letters of credit, and $499.4
commitment fee on undrawn funds, which is based on MG Holdings II’s consolidated net leverage ratio,
was 25 basis points as of June 30, 2026. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at MG
Holdings II’s option, at a base rate or a term secured overnight financing rate plus an applicable
adjustment (“Adjusted Term SOFR”), plus an applicable margin based on MG Holdings II’s consolidated
net leverage ratio. If MG Holdings II borrows under the Credit Facility, it will be required to maintain a
consolidated net leverage ratio of not more than 5.0 to 1.0.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Credit Agreement includes covenants that would limit the ability of MG Holdings II to pay
dividends, make distributions, or repurchase MG Holdings II’s stock in the event MG Holdings II’s
consolidated net leverage ratio exceeds 4.25 to 1.0, or if an event of default has occurred. The Credit
Agreement includes additional covenants that limit the ability of MG Holdings II and its subsidiaries to,
among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions. Obligations under the
Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by certain MG Holdings II wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries and are also secured by the stock of certain MG Holdings II domestic and foreign
subsidiaries. Outstanding borrowings, if any, have priority over the Senior Notes to the extent of the
value of the assets securing the borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

Exchangeable Notes
During 2019, Match Group FinanceCo 2, Inc. and Match Group FinanceCo 3, Inc., direct, wholly-
owned subsidiaries of the Company, issued $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2026
Exchangeable Notes and $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Exchangeable Notes,
respectively.
In June 2026, at maturity, the Company settled, at par, the outstanding aggregate principal amount
of the 2026 Exchangeable Notes, paying $423.9 million.
The 2030 Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of
specified events, at a rate of 12.3011 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal
amount of notes, which represents an approximate equivalent exchange price of $81.29 per share. The
2030 Exchangeable Notes become exchangeable on October 15, 2029.
The 2030 Exchangeable Notes are guaranteed by the Company but are not guaranteed by MG
Holdings II or any of its subsidiaries.
As more specifically set forth in the indenture, the 2030 Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable
under the following circumstances:
(1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale
price of the Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during
the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the
immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130 % of the exchange price on each
applicable trading day;
(2) during the five-business day period after any five-consecutive trading day period (the
“measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading
day of the measurement period was less than 98 % of the product of the last reported sale price of the
Company's common stock and the exchange rate on each such trading day;
(3) if the issuer calls the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the
scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or
(4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as further described in the indentures
governing the notes.
On or after the exchangeable date, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading
day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may exchange all or any portion of their 2030
Exchangeable Notes regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon exchange, the issuer, in its sole
discretion, has the option to settle the 2030 Exchangeable Notes with cash, shares of the Company’s
common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock. Any shares
issued in further settlement of the 2030 Exchangeable Notes would be offset by shares received upon
exercise of the Exchangeable Note Hedges (described below).
There were not any 2026 or 2030 Exchangeable Notes presented for exchange during the six
months ended June 30, 2026. The 2030 Exchangeable Notes were not exchangeable as of June 30,
2026.
At both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was no value in excess of the principal of
the 2030 Exchangeable Notes outstanding on an if-converted basis using the Company’s stock price on
June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Additionally, all or any portion of the 2030 Exchangeable Notes may be redeemed for cash, at the
issuer’s option, at any time, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at
least 130 % of the exchange price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not
consecutive), including at least one of the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which
the notice of redemption is provided, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and
including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the issuer provides notice of

Exchangeable Notes Hedges and Warrants
In connection with the 2030 Exchangeable Notes offering, the Company purchased call options
(the "Exchangeable Notes Hedges") allowing it to purchase, initially, the same number of shares
issuable upon exchange of the 2030 Exchangeable Notes, at the price per share set forth below,
subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. Additionally, in connection with the
offerings of the 2026 Exchangeable Notes and the 2030 Exchangeable Notes, the Company sold
warrants (the "Warrants") allowing the counterparty to purchase shares at the per share prices set forth
below, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

The Exchangeable Notes Hedges are expected to reduce the potential dilutive effect on the
Company’s common stock upon any exchange of the 2030 Exchangeable Notes and/or offset any cash
payment Match Group FinanceCo 3, Inc. is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the
exchanged notes. The Warrants have a dilutive effect on the Company’s common stock to the extent
that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds their respective strike prices.
At June 30, 2026, the outstanding Exchangeable Notes Hedges grant the Company the option to
purchase 7.1 million shares of the Company's common stock, at an approximate equivalent exchange
price of $81.29 per share.
At June 30, 2026, the outstanding Warrants associated with the 2030 Exchangeable Notes allow
the counterparty to purchase 7.1 million shares of the Company's common stock, at a weighted
average strike price of $130.14 per share.
The Warrants associated with the 2026 Exchangeable Notes remain outstanding until September
15, 2026 and allow the counterparty to purchase 5.0 million shares of the Company's common stock, at
weighted average strike price of $130.08 per share.

(a)The Company uses the if-converted method for calculating the dilutive impact of the
outstanding Exchangeable Notes. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026
and 2025, the Company adjusted net income attributable to Match Group, Inc. shareholders for
the cash interest expense, net of income taxes, incurred on the 2026 and 2030 Exchangeable
Notes. Dilutive shares were also included for the same series of Exchangeable Notes.
(b)If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding includes the incremental
shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options, warrants, and
subsidiary denominated equity and vesting of restricted stock units. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2026, 13.9 million and 13.2 million potentially dilutive securities,
respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, 22.1 million and 21.9
million, respectively, are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because
their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
(c)Market-based awards and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) are considered
contingently issuable shares. Shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of market-based
awards and PSUs are included in the denominator for earnings per share if (i) the applicable
market or performance condition(s) has been met and (ii) the inclusion of the market-based
awards and PSUs is dilutive for the respective reporting periods. For both the three and six
months ended June 30, 2026, 1.8
three and six months ended June 30, 2025, 3.3
excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the market or performance
conditions had not been met.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”)
reorganized our brands into three operating segments following certain organizational and management
changes. Specifically, the Evergreen and Emerging and MG Asia operating segments were combined
into a new segment called “Everyone Everywhere.” This change has been reflected in all historical
periods presented. The Tinder and Hinge operating segments remain unchanged.
Our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, analyzes the results of our business through three
operating segments consisting of brands or groups of brands within our portfolio: Tinder, Hinge, and
Everyone Everywhere. These three
primarily evaluates the operating results and performance of our segments through revenue, operating
income, and Adjusted EBITDA. These financial metrics are used to view operating trends, perform
analytical comparisons, compare performance between periods, and evaluate variances to forecast on
a monthly basis.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits. The Company
establishes reserves for specific legal matters when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable
outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. Management has also identified certain other
legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is not probable and, therefore, no reserve is
established. Although management currently believes that resolving claims against us, including claims
where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, will not have a material impact on the liquidity,
results of operations, or financial condition of the Company, these matters are subject to inherent
uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. The Company also
evaluates other contingent matters, including income and non-income tax contingencies, to assess the
likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and estimated extent of potential loss. It is possible that an
unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits or other contingencies could have a material
impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company. See “Note 2—
Income Taxes” for additional information related to income tax contingencies.

Irish Data Protection Commission Inquiry Regarding Tinder’s Practices
On February 3, 2020, we received a letter from the Irish Data Protection Commission (the “DPC”)
notifying us that the DPC had commenced an inquiry examining Tinder’s compliance with the EU’s
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), focusing on Tinder’s processes for handling access and
deletion requests and Tinder’s user data retention policies. On January 8, 2024, the DPC provided us
with a preliminary draft decision alleging that certain of Tinder’s access and retention policies, largely
relating to protecting the safety and privacy of Tinder’s users, violate GDPR requirements. We filed our
response to the preliminary draft decision on March 15, 2024, and the DPC issued its draft decision on
July 9, 2026 with a proposed fine between €8 million and €11 million. We recorded a $9.1 million
provision for this matter during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which is included in our consolidated
financial statements as “general and administrative expense” and a related accrual is included in
“accrued expenses and other current liabilities. We believe we have strong defenses to these claims
and will defend vigorously against them.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, we reorganized our brands into three operating
segments. Specifically, the Evergreen and Emerging and MG Asia operating segments were combined
into a new segment called “Everyone Everywhere.” This change has been reflected in all historical
periods presented. The Tinder and Hinge operating segments remain unchanged.
Key Terms:

Meetic®, OkCupid®, Plenty Of Fish®, Pairs™, Azar®, BLK®, Chispa™, The League®, Upward®,
Salams®, HER™, and other smaller brands.

Revenue. When presented as a quarter-to-date or year-to-date value, Payers represents the
average of the monthly values for the respective period presented. At a consolidated level and
a business unit level to the extent a business unit consists of multiple brands, duplicate Payers
may exist when we earn revenue from the same individual at multiple brands in a given month,
as we are unable to identify unique individuals across brands in the Match Group portfolio.
•Revenue Per Payer (“RPP”) is the average monthly revenue earned from a Payer and is
Direct Revenue for a period divided by the Payers in the period, further divided by the number
of months in the period.

•Cost of revenue consists primarily of the amortization of in-app purchase fees, Variable
Expenses (defined below), and employee compensation expense and stock-based
compensation expense for personnel engaged in data center and customer care functions.
•Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of cost of acquisition expense and
employee compensation expense and stock-based compensation expense for personnel
engaged in selling and marketing, sales support, and public relations functions.
•General and administrative expense consists primarily of employee compensation expense
and stock-based compensation expense for personnel engaged in executive management,
finance, legal, tax, and human resources, fees for professional services (including transaction-
related costs for acquisitions), and facilities costs.
•Product development expense consists primarily of employee compensation expense and
stock-based compensation expense that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the
design, development, testing, and enhancement of our services and related technology.

Azar Business Update
On February 22, 2026, Apple removed the Azar app from the Apple App Store following a February
6, 2026 update to Apple’s App Review Guidelines. Updates were subsequently made to the app to
comply with the updated guidelines, which led to the reinstatement of a new version on April 6, 2026.
The app updates necessitated by the new guidelines and the temporary removal from the app store
resulted in lower Direct Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we also updated the business forecast associated with
the Azar app, which resulted in an impairment of $25.2 million to the indefinite-lived asset associated
with the Azar trade name.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025
Tinder Direct Revenue declined 1%, driven by a 5% decrease in Payers, partially offset by an
increase in RPP of 4%.
Hinge Direct Revenue grew 22%, driven by 17% Payer growth, reflecting Hinge’s continued
European expansion, and 4% RPP growth.
E&E Direct Revenue declined 17%, including a $19 million decrease in revenue at Azar impacted
by the temporary Azar app removal discussed in the Azar business update above. Additional decreases
occurred at several other brands within E&E.
Indirect Revenue decreased due to lower direct advertisement revenue compared to 2025.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025
Tinder Direct Revenue increased $3.6 million, essentially flat compared to 2025. Direct Revenue
benefited from a 6% increase in RPP, which was positively impacted by the weakening of the U.S.
dollar compared to the Euro, mostly offset by a 5% decrease in Payers. On a consistent foreign
exchange rate basis, Direct Revenue declined $22.9 million, or 3%.
Hinge Direct Revenue grew $78.3 million, or 24%. Revenue growth was driven by continued
growth in the US and other English speaking markets and in European expansion markets. Payers
increased 16%, and RPP increased 7%. RPP was positively impacted by the weakening of the U.S.
dollar compared to the Euro.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025
•Tinder’s operating income was $210.9 million, down 3%, and Adjusted EBITDA was $233.0
million, down 5%, primarily due to an increase in cost of acquisition and a decrease in revenue,
partially offset by a reduction in in-app purchase fees. Operating income further benefited from
a reduction in depreciation and stock-based compensation expense.
•Hinge’s operating income was $63.1 million, an increase of 62%, and Adjusted EBITDA was
$79.4 million, an increase of 48%, primarily due to continued Payer growth, partially offset by
increased cost of acquisition and employee compensation within product development
expense.
•E&E’s operating income was $21.0 million, an increase of $25.7 million, and Adjusted EBITDA
was $54.1 million, an increase of 69%, both improving primarily due to reductions in legal
expenses, in-app purchase fees, cost of acquisition, and employee compensation expense.
These reductions were partially offset by the decrease in revenue.

partially offset by nondeductible stock-based compensation, state income taxes, and foreign income
taxed at higher rates.
A number of countries have enacted or are actively drafting legislation to implement the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's ("OECD") international tax framework,
including the Pillar II minimum tax regime. The Company analyzed the impact of enacted legislation and
determined it does not have a material impact to the income tax provision. The Company is continuing
to monitor future developments, including the side-by-side safe harbor, which would exclude U.S.-
parented multinational enterprises from the scope of certain Pillar II taxes.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Match Group reports Adjusted EBITDA and Revenue excluding foreign exchange effects, both of
which are supplemental measures to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted
EBITDA is among the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our business, on which
our internal budget is based, and by which management is compensated. Revenue excluding foreign
exchange effects provides a comparable framework for assessing how our business performed without
the effect of exchange rate differences when compared to prior periods. We believe that investors
should have access to the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. These non-GAAP
measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should
not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Match Group endeavors to compensate
for the limitations of the non-GAAP measures presented by providing the comparable GAAP measures
with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such
items, to derive the non-GAAP measures. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling
adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures, which we discuss below.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Match Group, Inc. shareholders
excluding: (1) net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests; (2) income tax provision or
benefit; (3) other income (expense), net; (4) interest expense; (5) depreciation; (6) acquisition-related
items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible
assets, if applicable, and (ii) gains and losses recognized on changes in fair value of contingent
consideration arrangements, as applicable; and (7) stock-based compensation expense. We believe
Adjusted EBITDA is useful to analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful
comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA has certain
limitations because it excludes certain expenses. At a segment level, the closest GAAP measure is
operating income (loss) as items outside operating income (loss) are not allocated to segments.
Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From Adjusted EBITDA
Stock-based compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants of
RSUs, performance-based RSUs, and market-based awards. These expenses are not paid in cash,
and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding using the treasury stock
method; however, performance-based RSUs and market-based awards are included only to the extent
the applicable performance or market condition(s) have been met (assuming the end of the reporting
period is the end of the contingency period). To the extent stock-based awards are settled on a net
basis, we remit the required tax-withholding amounts from current funds.
Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our property and equipment and is computed using
the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated
useful lives, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the lease term, if shorter.
Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash
expenses related primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived
intangible assets of the acquired company, such as customer lists, trade names, and technology, are
valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to (i) acquired indefinite-lived
intangible assets, which consist of trade names and trademarks, and (ii) goodwill, which are not subject
to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill
exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired
company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairment charges of
intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates on Revenue
The impact of foreign exchange rates on the Company, due to its global reach, may be an
important factor in understanding period over period comparisons if movement in exchange rates is
significant. Since our results are reported in U.S. dollars, international revenue is favorably impacted as
the U.S. dollar weakens relative to other currencies, and unfavorably impacted as the U.S. dollar
strengthens relative to other currencies. We believe the presentation of revenue excluding the effects
from foreign exchange, in addition to reported revenue, helps improve investors’ ability to understand
the Company’s performance because it excludes the impact of foreign currency volatility that is not
indicative of Match Group’s core operating results.
Revenue excluding foreign exchange effects compares results between periods as if exchange
rates had remained constant period over period. Revenue excluding foreign exchange effects is
calculated by translating current period revenue using prior period exchange rates. The percentage
change in revenue excluding foreign exchange effects is calculated by determining the change in
current period revenue over prior period revenue where current period revenue is translated using prior
period exchange rates.
The following tables present the impact of foreign exchange effects on total revenue and Direct
Revenue by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three and six

Cash Flow Information
In summary, the Company’s cash flows are as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30, | |||
2026 | 2025 | ||
(In thousands) | |||
Net cash provided by operating activities | $564,199 | $436,959 | |
Net cash used in investing activities | (149,686) | (54,273) | |
Net cash used in financing activities | (855,757) | (1,032,276) | |
2026
Net cash provided by operating activities in 2026 includes adjustments to income of $120.6 million
of stock-based compensation expense, $42.3 million of impairments and amortization of intangibles,
$29.5 million of depreciation, and $26.7 million of deferred income taxes. The increase in cash from
changes in working capital was primarily due to an increase from accounts receivable of $22.5 million,
an increase from net income taxes of $20.1 million due to timing of payments, and an increase from
other assets of $12.6 million. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease from accounts payable
and other liabilities of $47.4 million, including the $60.5 million settlement of the Allan Candelore v.
Tinder lawsuit that was paid into escrow during the period, in addition to the timing of other payments.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2026 is primarily a $100.0 million minority investment in
Sniffies and capital expenditures of $37.7 million primarily related to internal development of software.
Net cash used in financing activities in 2026 is primarily due to payments of $423.9 million to repay
the outstanding 2026 Exchangeable Notes at maturity, purchases of treasury stock of $245.4 million,
payments of $92.5 million of withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees for net-settled stock-based
awards, and dividends paid of $90.9 million.
2025
Net cash provided by operating activities in 2025 includes adjustments to income of $137.9 million
of stock-based compensation expense, $39.8 million of depreciation, and $21.0 million of amortization
of intangibles. The decrease in cash from changes in working capital primarily consists of a decrease in
accounts payable and other liabilities of $19.4 million, primarily related to the timing of payments, a
decrease in net income taxes payable of $6.1 million due to timing of payments, and a decrease in
deferred revenue of $6.6 million. These items were partially offset by a decrease in other assets of
$32.3 million.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2025 consists primarily of capital expenditures of $28.3
million primarily related to internal development of software and $26.0 million of other investing cash
outflows.
Net cash used in financing activities in 2025 is primarily due to the repayment of the Company’s
former term loan of $425.0 million, purchases of treasury stock of $419.7 million, dividends paid of
$95.0 million, and payments of $89.9 million of withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees for net-
settled stock-based awards.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents as well as cash
flows generated from operations. As of June 30, 2026, $499.4 million was available under the Credit
Facility.
The Company has various obligations related to long-term debt instruments and operating leases.
For additional information on long-term debt, including maturity dates and interest rates, see “Note 4—
Long-term Debt, net” to the consolidated financial statements included in “Item 1—Consolidated
Financial Statements.” For additional information on operating lease payments, including a schedule of
obligations by year, see “Note 12—Leases” to the consolidated financial statements included in “Item 8
46
Table of Contents
—Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Company’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company believes it has sufficient cash flows
from operations to satisfy these future obligations.
The Company anticipates that it will need to make capital and other expenditures in connection
with the development and expansion of its operations. The Company expects that 2026 cash capital
expenditures will be between $65 million and $75 million, an increase to 2025 cash capital expenditures
primarily due to an increase in leasehold improvements and capitalized labor.
We have entered into various purchase commitments, primarily consisting of web hosting services.
Our obligations under these various purchase commitments are $68.0 million for 2027, and $70.3
million for 2028.
At June 30, 2026, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, other than as described
above.
On December 10, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to
$1.5 billion in aggregate value of shares of Match Group common stock (the “Share Repurchase
Program”). Under the Share Repurchase Program, $697 million in aggregate value of shares of Match
Group common stock remains available for repurchase as of July 31, 2026. Under the Share
Repurchase Program, shares of our common stock may be purchased on a discretionary basis from
time to time, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities,
through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through
Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The Share Repurchase Program may be commenced, suspended or
discontinued at any time. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 7.3 million
shares for $245.4 million under the Share Repurchase Program. Between July 1 and July 31, 2026, we
repurchased 0.4 million shares for $16.2 million under the Share Repurchase Program.
The Company currently settles substantially all stock-based awards on a net basis. Assuming all
stock-based awards outstanding on July 31, 2026 were net settled at the closing price on that date, we
would issue 7.8 million shares of common stock (of which 0.1 million are related to vested awards and
7.7 million are related to unvested awards) and, assuming a 50% withholding rate, would remit $305.7
million in cash for withholding taxes (of which $2.8 million is related to vested awards and $302.9 million
is related to unvested awards). If we did not settle awards on a net basis and instead issued a sufficient
number of shares to cover the $305.7 million employee withholding tax obligation, 7.8 million additional
shares would be issued by the Company.
As of June 30, 2026, all of the Company’s international cash can be repatriated without significant
tax consequences.
Our indebtedness could limit our ability to: (i) obtain additional financing to fund working capital
needs, acquisitions, capital expenditures, debt service, or other requirements; and (ii) use operating
cash flow to pursue acquisitions or invest in other areas, such as developing properties and exploiting
business opportunities. The Company may need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity
financing to make additional acquisitions and investments or to provide for greater financial flexibility.
Additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company or at all.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions
during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These
estimates, judgments and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and
expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from
these estimates.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no material changes to the Company’s
critical accounting policies and estimates since the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2025.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no material changes to the Company’s
instruments or positions that are sensitive to market risk since the disclosure in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company monitors and evaluates on an ongoing basis its disclosure controls and procedures
and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve their overall effectiveness. In the course
of these evaluations, the Company modifies and refines its internal processes as conditions warrant.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), Match Group management, including our principal executive and principal financial
officers, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined
by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that
the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered
by this report in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in our
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and
includes controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in
the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period
covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Overview
We are, and from time to time may become, involved in various legal proceedings arising in the
normal course of our business activities, such as trademark and patent infringement claims, trademark
oppositions, and consumer or advertising complaints, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class
action lawsuits, mass arbitrations, and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such
matters may be subject to insurance coverage. The litigation matters described below involve issues or
claims that may be of particular interest to our stockholders, regardless of whether any of these matters
may be material to our financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the SEC’s
rules.
Consumer Class Action Litigation Challenging Tinder’s Age-Tiered Pricing
On May 28, 2015, a putative state-wide class action was filed against Tinder in state court in
California. See Allan Candelore v. Tinder, Inc., No. BC583162 (Superior Court of California, County of
Los Angeles). The complaint principally alleges that Tinder violated California’s Unruh Civil Rights Act
by offering and charging users over a certain age a higher price than younger users for subscriptions to
its premium Tinder Plus service. Plaintiff sought damages in an unspecified amount. On July 15, 2024,
the court granted Plaintiff’s motion to certify a class based upon California Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold
subscribers age 29 and over. On January 17, 2025, the court denied our motion to compel the class
and the plaintiff to arbitration. We filed a Notice of Appeal on January 24, 2025, and on April 18, 2025,
the court stayed the case pending our appeal. On September 10, 2025, the parties agreed to settle the
case on a class-wide basis for a payment of $60.5 million. The court preliminarily approved the
settlement on January 13, 2026, and granted final approval on June 5, 2026.
Irish Data Protection Commission Inquiry Regarding Tinder’s Practices
On February 3, 2020, we received a letter from the Irish Data Protection Commission (the “DPC”)
notifying us that the DPC had commenced an inquiry examining Tinder’s compliance with the EU’s
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), focusing on Tinder’s processes for handling access and
deletion requests and Tinder’s user data retention policies. On January 8, 2024, the DPC provided us
with a preliminary draft decision alleging that certain of Tinder’s access and retention policies, largely
relating to protecting the safety and privacy of Tinder’s users, violate GDPR requirements. We filed our
response to the preliminary draft decision on March 15, 2024, and the DPC issued its draft decision on
July 9, 2026. We believe we have strong defenses to these claims and will defend vigorously against
them.
FTC Investigation of Certain Subsidiary Data Privacy Representations
On March 19, 2020, the FTC issued an initial Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) to the Company
requiring us to produce certain documents and information regarding the allegedly wrongful conduct of
OkCupid in 2014 and our public statements in 2019 regarding such conduct and whether such conduct
and statements were unfair or deceptive under the FTC Act. On May 26, 2022, the FTC filed a Petition
to Enforce Match Civil Investigative Demand, and on June 20, 2025, the Court ordered that the FTC’s
Petition be granted in part and denied in part. See FTC v. Match Group, Inc., No. 1:22-mc-00054
(District of Columbia). On February 23, 2026, the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve
the investigation. The settlement was approved by the FTC and filed with the Northern District of Texas
on March 30, 2026. The court approved the settlement on April 30, 2026. Pursuant to the settlement
agreement, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries agreed not to misrepresent their privacy practices,
including with respect to the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information. The settlement
agreement also includes provisions allowing the FTC to monitor the subsidiaries’ compliance.

Securities Derivative Actions
In December 2024, purported Match Group stockholders filed two derivative complaints in the
Central District of California (nominally on behalf of the Company) against certain of Match Group, Inc.’s
current and former executive officers and members of its board of directors, alleging violations of the
federal securities laws and breach of fiduciary duty stemming from allegations that Match Group
materially understated the challenges affecting its Tinder business and, as a result, understated the risk
that Tinder's monthly active user count would not recover by the time the Company reported its financial
results for the third fiscal quarter of 2024. See Hollin v. Kim, et al., No. 2:24-CV-10776 (Central District
of California), and Roy v Kim, et al., No. 2:24-cv-11007 (Central District of California). In August 2025, a
third derivative complaint was filed in the Central District of California alleging similar causes of action.
See Habedus v. Kim, et al., No. 2:25-cv-07171 (Central District of California). On September 9, 2025,
the court dismissed the Habedus derivative action with prejudice as to all defendants. On April 16,
2026, the court in the Roy derivative action granted the plaintiff's request to voluntarily dismiss the case
without prejudice. As to the remaining derivative action, we believe that we have strong defenses to the
allegations and will defend vigorously against them.
Netherlands Privacy Class Action
On December 17, 2024, a writ of summons was filed against MTCH Technologies Services
Limited, an indirect subsidiary of the Company, and Match Group, Inc. in the District Court of
Amsterdam. Among other things, the lawsuit alleges that defendants unlawfully collected, processed,
and shared Dutch Tinder users’ personal data without proper consent in violation of GDPR and Dutch
consumer protection laws. See Stichting Take Back Your Privacy v. MTCH Technologies Services
Limited et al. (Amsterdam). The lawsuit purports to represent a class of Dutch Tinder users from May
25, 2018 until the court’s final judgment and seeks monetary damages and injunctive relief. On May 7,
2025, we filed a motion contesting jurisdiction, and the plaintiff filed an opposition on June 18, 2025.
On May 20, 2026, the court confirmed jurisdiction over the non-GDPR claims but has not yet decided
on jurisdiction over the GDPR claims. The court is considering staying the entire case, and we are
awaiting a decision on that issue. We believe that we have strong defenses to the allegations and will
defend vigorously against them.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements that are not historical facts are
“forward looking statements.” The use of words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,”
“believes,” “will,” and “would,” among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements include, among others, statements relating to: Match Group’s future
financial performance, Match Group’s business prospects and strategy, anticipated trends and
prospects in the industries in which Match Group’s businesses operate and other similar matters. These
forward-looking statements are based on Match Group management’s current expectations and
assumptions about future events as of the date of this quarterly report, which are inherently subject to
uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.
Actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a
variety of reasons, including, among others: failure to retain existing users or add new users, or if users
do not convert to paying users; competition; risks related to our restructuring and reorganization
activities; our ability to attract and retain users through cost-effective marketing efforts; our reliance on a
variety of third-party platforms, in particular, mobile app stores; our ability to realize reductions in in-app
purchase fees; inappropriate actions by certain of our users could be attributed to us or may not be
adequately prevented by us; dependence on our key personnel; volatile global economic conditions;
operational and financial risks in connection with acquisitions; impairment charges related to our
intangible assets; operations in various international markets, including certain markets in which we
have limited experience; foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; challenges in measuring our user
metrics and other estimates; the limited operating history of our newer brands and services makes it
difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects; impacts of climate change; the integrity
of our and third parties’ systems and infrastructure; cyberattacks on our systems and infrastructure and
50
Table of Contents
cyberattacks experienced by third parties; our ability to access, collect, and use personal data about our
users; breaches or unauthorized access of personal and confidential or sensitive user information that
we maintain and store; challenges with properly managing the use of artificial intelligence; risks related
to credit card payments; risks related to our use of “open source” software; complex and evolving U.S.,
foreign, and international laws and regulations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights or
accusations that we infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others; adverse outcomes in
litigation; risks related to our taxation in multiple jurisdictions; risks related to our indebtedness; and
risks relating to ownership of our common stock.
Certain of these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in Match Group’s filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including in Part I “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our annual report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Other unknown or unpredictable factors
that could also adversely affect Match Group’s business, financial condition, and results of operations
may arise from time to time. In light of these risks and uncertainties, these forward-looking statements
discussed in this quarterly report may not prove to be accurate. Accordingly, you should not place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only reflect the views of Match Group
management as of the date of this quarterly report. Match Group does not undertake to update these
forward-looking statements.
