Match Group Announces Second Quarter Results

Tinder Transformation Advances, Hinge Grows Revenue 25% Year-Over-Year , /PRNewswire/ -- Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, and outlined progress on the company's multi-phase transformation. The company's Total Revenue and Adjusted Operating Income both exceeded guidance and Wall Street expectations in the quarter, after excluding an unanticipated $14 million legal settlement charge. Earlier this year, Match Group launched a bold, three-phase turnaround strategy: Reset, focused on reworking the company's structure and culture; Revitalize, centered on accelerating product development and aligning around user outcomes; and Resurgence, the forward-looking phase aimed at strengthening the category and driving long-term growth. "Six months ago, we took a hard look at how we work, what we build, and what users want from our apps," said CEO Spencer Rascoff. "We moved fast to reset the company culturally, organizationally, and strategically. We then began revitalizing our apps around clearer brand purpose and real user outcomes. Match Group is now oriented around urgency, accountability, and product obsession." Rascoff continued, "With meaningful product progress at Tinder, strong momentum at Hinge, and a portfolio of distinct brands aligned around user needs, we're building a product-first company positioned for long-term success. We're moving with urgency, operating with focus, and committed to the long game. As we look ahead to our resurgence phase in 2026 and 2027, we are focused on delivering app experiences that feel modern, human, and built for today's users. We are also working to spark a resurgence of trust, relevance, and confidence among both our users and investors." To support this strategy, Match Group plans to reinvest savings of approximately $50 million in the second half of 2025 in strategic initiatives across the portfolio. This includes product testing at Tinder, geographic expansion for Hinge, Azar, and The League, and early-stage bets like Archer, HER, and a new dating app concept. By enhancing product experiences and increasing marketing support, the company is aiming to deliver more value to users while meeting its previously shared full year revenue growth and margin targets. Match Group Q2 2025 Financial Highlights Total Revenue of $864 million flat year-over-year ("Y/Y"), down 1% on a foreign exchange ("FX") neutral basis ("FXN"), driven by a 5% Y/Y decline in Payers to 14.1 million, partially offset by a 5% Y/Y increase in RPP to $20.00. Operating Income of $194 million declined 5% Y/Y, representing an Operating Income Margin of 22%. Adjusted Operating Income of $290 million declined 5% Y/Y, representing an Adjusted Operating Income Margin of 34%. Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow were $437 million and $409 million, respectively, year-to-date through June 30, 2025. Repurchased 13.7 million of our shares at an average price of $31 per share on a trade date basis for a total of $420 million and paid $95 million in dividends, deploying over 125% of our free cash flow for capital return to shareholders year-to-date through June 30, 2025. Diluted shares outstanding1 were 249 million as of July 31, 2025, a decrease of 9%, since July 26, 2024. The following table summarizes total company consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Three Months Ended June 30, (Dollars in millions, except RPP, Payers in thousands) 2025 2024 Y/Y Change Total Revenue $ 864 $ 864 — % Direct Revenue $ 845 $ 848 — % Operating Income $ 194 $ 205 (5) % Operating Income Margin 22 % 24 % Adjusted Operating Income $ 290 $ 306 (5) % Adjusted Operating Income Margin 34 % 35 % Payers 14,093 14,841 (5) % RPP $ 20.00 $ 19.05 5 % Other Quarterly Highlights: Tinder launched Double Date globally in June, introducing a new social discovery feature that lets users connect as a pair. Rolled out six months ahead of schedule, the feature is already showing strong early traction, with 92% of Double Date users under 30. Tinder advanced development of new product features focused on solving three core Gen Z user pain points: authenticity, dating fatigue, and outcomes. Recent initiatives include a redesigned Recommendations engine and a new Interactive Matching product (also referred to as "AI-enabled Discovery"). Upcoming features include a Modes navigation system that lets users tailor discovery to their dating goals, and Contextual Liking, which enables users to react to specific parts of a profile. Tinder improved platform trust and authenticity through the expanded rollout of Face Check, which helps confirm users are real and match their photos, and enhanced Bot Detection systems that more effectively identify bad actors while reducing false positives. Hinge continued its strong performance, with MAU up nearly 20% year-over-year in the first half of 2025. In European Expansion2 markets, users grew over 60% year-over-year as locally tailored brand campaigns drove gains in awareness and perception. Hinge is set to expand into Mexico and Brazil later this year. Hinge's new AI-powered Core Discovery Algorithm has driven a 15% increase in matches and contact exchanges since launching in March. Additional features like Prompt Feedback and Chat-Specific Notifications improved onboarding quality and user engagement.

has various tranches of dilutive securities. The table below details these securities and their potentially dilutive impact (shares in millions; rounding differences may occur). Average Exercise Price 7/31/2025 Share Price $34.27 Absolute Shares 240.6 Equity Awards Options $16.76 0.3 RSUs and subsidiary denominated equity awards 8.2 Total Dilution - Equity Awards 8.5 Outstanding Warrants Warrants expiring on September 15, 2026 (6.7 million outstanding) $132.39 — Warrants expiring on April 15, 2030 (6.9 million outstanding) $132.45 — Total Dilution - Outstanding Warrants — Total Dilution 8.5 % Dilution 3.4 % Total Diluted Shares Outstanding 249.1 ______________________ 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 $9.3 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 $282.2 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 June 30, 2025. 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. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Match Group reports Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income 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 Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income 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 Operating Income is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) 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 the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements, as applicable. We believe Adjusted Operating Income is useful to analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted Operating Income measure because they are non-cash in nature. Adjusted Operating Income has certain limitations because it excludes certain expenses. Adjusted Operating Income Margin is defined as Adjusted Operating Income divided by revenues. We believe Adjusted Operating Income Margin is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Adjusted Operating Income 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 Operating Income. 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. 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.

Evergreen & Emerging ("E&E") consists of the world-wide activity of our Evergreen brands including Match®, Meetic®, OkCupid®, Plenty Of Fish®, and a number of demographically focused brands and our Emerging brands including BLK®, ChispaTM, The League®, Archer®, Upward®, YuzuTM, Salams®, HER, and other smaller brands. Match Group Asia ("MG Asia") consists of the world-wide activity of the brands Pairs® and Azar®. Direct Revenue is revenue that is received directly from end users of our services and includes both subscription and à la carte revenue. Indirect Revenue is revenue that is not received directly from end users of our services, a majority of which is advertising revenue. Payers are unique users at a brand level in a given month from whom we earned Direct 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. Monthly Active User ("MAU") is a unique registered user at a brand level who has visited the brand's app or, if applicable, their website in the last 28 days as of the measurement date. At 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 Operating Income 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 Operating Income for the period referenced.
