Match Group Announces First Quarter Results

Tinder Registrations Returned to Y/Y Growth in March, Marking First Increase in Nearly

Two Years

Hinge Launches Category-First Features and Delivers Strong Revenue Growth

LOS ANGELES, May 5, 2026 - Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) today announced financial results for

the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, highlighting meaningful progress in its product-led

transformation. In Q1, the Company exceeded its revenue and Adjusted EBITDA expectations, while

continuing to improve operating discipline and reallocate resources toward its highest-conviction

opportunities.

“Match Group delivered a strong start to the year,” said CEO Spencer Rascoff. “Tinder works better

today than it did before. Our product changes are resonating with Gen Z and driving improvements in

leading indicators, which is a clear signal that Tinder's ecosystem is strengthening. Hinge delivered

another strong quarter and launched category-first features for highly intentioned daters that are

improving outcomes.”

In Q1, Tinder demonstrated measurable progress across key metrics and strengthened user trends,

with global MAU retention and registrations returning to year-over-year growth in March, while Hinge

delivered 28% Y/Y Direct Revenue growth, reflecting continued product momentum and international

expansion. The Company also advanced its ‘1MG’ strategy, further simplifying its organizational

structure and operating more cohesively to enable faster execution and better leverage shared

capabilities across brands.

Rascoff continued, “We are maintaining disciplined execution across the business, driving efficiency

while continuing to invest in our highest-priority growth opportunities. We’ve built a stronger foundation

for the business over the past year, and are well-positioned to drive continued progress throughout

2026 and beyond.”

Match Group Q1 2026 Financial Highlights

•Total Revenue of $864 million was up 4% year-over-year (“Y/Y”), flat on a foreign exchange

(“FX”) neutral basis (“FXN”), driven by a 10% Y/Y increase in RPP to $20.90, partially offset by

a 5% Y/Y decline in Payers to 13.5 million.

•Net Income of $167 million increased 42% Y/Y, representing a Net Income Margin of 19%.

•Adjusted EBITDA of $343 million increased 25% Y/Y, representing an Adjusted EBITDA

Margin of 40%.

•Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow were $194 million and $174 million, respectively.

•Repurchased 2.0 million of our shares at an average price of $31 per share on a trade date

basis for a total of $60 million, paid $44 million in dividends, and deployed $75 million of cash

toward the net settlement of employee equity awards to reduce dilution, equating to 103% of

Free Cash Flow in total.

•Diluted shares outstanding1 were 242 million as of April 30, 2026, a decrease of 13 million

shares, or 5%, since April 30, 2025.

The following table summarizes total company consolidated financial results for the three months

ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Other Quarterly Highlights:

•Tinder’s product-led turnaround is underway, with leading indicators improving. In

March, Sparks (a proxy for real connection) declined just 1% Y/Y, while Sparks Coverage (a

core engagement metric for conversations) increased 6% Y/Y. In March, MAU trends also

improved, down 7% Y/Y, the slowest rate of decline in 31 months, and new user registrations

returned to Y/Y growth. These trends reflect ongoing product enhancements, including

improved recommendations, new features like Astrology Mode and Music Mode, and

continued investment in Trust & Safety.

•Hinge fully rolled out Face Check™ across key markets, reducing interactions with bad

actors2 by 20-30% with minimal impact on revenue.

•Match Group made a significant $100 million investment in Sniffies in April, further

strengthening its investment in the non-heterosexual male segment. As part of this move, the

Company will wind down Archer, its gay male app, which is expected to result in approximately

$10 million in annualized cost savings, including stock-based compensation.

•Match Group continued to simplify its organization, folding MG Asia into its E&E business

unit, which is expected to result in roughly $15 million in annualized cost savings, including

stock-based compensation. The move brings Azar and Pairs, the two Asia-based businesses,

closer to the rest of the Company, and the Seoul-based engineering talent to Tinder. The

Company also further centralized performance marketing, driving improved coordination

across nearly $600 million in global spend.

A webcast of our first quarter 2026 results will be available at https://ir.mtch.com, along with our

Prepared Remarks and Supplemental Financial Materials. The webcast will begin today, May 5, 2026,

at 5:00 PM Eastern Time. This press release, including the reconciliations of certain non-GAAP

measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures, is also available on that site.

•Total Revenue of $850 to $860 million, down 2% to flat Y/Y.

•Adjusted EBITDA of $325 to $330 million, representing a Y/Y increase of 13% at the midpoints

of the ranges.

•Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 38% at the midpoints of the ranges.

______________________

The dilutive securities presentation above is calculated using the methods and assumptions described below; these

are different from GAAP dilution, which is calculated based on the treasury stock method.

Options — The table above assumes the options are settled net of the option exercise price and employee

withholding taxes, as is our practice, and the dilutive effect is presented as the net shares that would be issued upon

exercise. Withholding taxes paid by the Company on behalf of the employees upon exercise is estimated to be

$4.4 million, assuming the stock price in the table above and a 50% estimated employee withholding tax rate.

RSUs and subsidiary denominated equity awards — The table above assumes RSUs are settled net of employee

withholding taxes, as is our practice, and the dilutive effect is presented as the net number of shares that would be

issued upon vesting. Withholding taxes paid by the Company on behalf of the employees upon vesting is estimated to

be $336.1 million, assuming the stock price in the table above and a 50% withholding rate.

All performance-based and market-based awards reflect the expected shares that will vest based on current

performance or market estimates. The table assumes no change in the fair value estimate of the subsidiary

denominated equity awards from the values used for GAAP purposes at March 31, 2026.

Exchangeable Senior Notes — The Company has two series of Exchangeable Senior Notes outstanding. In the

event of an exchange, each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes can be settled in cash, shares, or a combination of

cash and shares. At the time of each Exchangeable Senior Notes issuance, the Company purchased call options with

a strike price equal to the exchange price of each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes (“Note Hedge”), which can be

used to offset the dilution of each series of the Exchangeable Senior Notes. No dilution is reflected in the table above

for any of the Exchangeable Senior Notes because it is the Company’s intention to settle the Exchangeable Senior

Notes with cash equal to the face amount of the notes; any shares issued would be offset by shares received upon

exercise of the Note Hedge.

Warrants — At the time of the issuance of each series of Exchangeable Senior Notes, the Company also sold

warrants for the number of shares with the strike prices reflected in the table above. The cash generated from the

exercise of the warrants is assumed to be used to repurchase Match Group shares and the resulting net dilution, if

any, is reflected in the table above.

11

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Match Group reports Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, and Revenue Excluding Foreign

Exchange Effects, all of which are supplemental measures to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow measures are 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 the

performance of our business 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 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 describe below. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that

may be expected for a full year.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Match Group, Inc. shareholders excluding: (1) net income

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.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues. We believe Adjusted EBITDA Margin is

useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that

of our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA Margin has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to our

consolidated statement of operations of certain expenses.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash

Flow is useful to investors because it represents the cash that our operating businesses generate, before taking into account

non-operational cash movements. Free Cash Flow has certain limitations in that it does not represent the total increase or

decrease in the cash balance for the period, nor does it represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures.

Therefore, we think it is important to evaluate Free Cash Flow along with our consolidated statement of cash flows.

We look at Free Cash Flow as a measure of the strength and performance of our businesses, not for valuation purposes. In

our view, applying “multiples” to Free Cash Flow is inappropriate because it is subject to timing, seasonality and one-time

events. We manage our business for cash, and we think it is of utmost importance to maximize cash – but our primary

valuation metric is Adjusted EBITDA.

Revenue Excluding Foreign Exchange Effects is calculated by translating current period revenues using prior period

exchange rates. The percentage change in Revenue Excluding Foreign Exchange Effects is calculated by determining the

change in current period revenues over prior period revenues where current period revenues are translated using prior

period exchange rates. We believe the impact of foreign exchange rates on Match Group, due to its global reach, may be an

important factor in understanding period over period comparisons if movement in rates is significant. Since our results are

reported in U.S. dollars, international revenues are 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 foreign exchange effects in addition to reported revenue helps improve the ability to understand Match

Group’s performance because it excludes the impact of foreign currency volatility that is not indicative of Match Group’s core

operating results.

12

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From Our Non-GAAP Measures

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 our 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.

a consolidated level and a business unit level to the extent a business unit consists of multiple brands, duplicate users will

exist within MAU when the same individual visits multiple brands in a given month.

Leverage on a gross basis is calculated as principal debt balance divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the period referenced.

Leverage on a net basis is calculated as principal debt balance less cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments

divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the period referenced.

Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This press release and our conference call, which will be held at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 5, 2026, may contain

“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 other similar matters. These forward-looking statements are based

on management’s current expectations and assumptions about future events, 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 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. 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 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 press release. Match Group does not undertake to update these forward-looking statements.
