It is a global leader in the online dating industry, with a mission to spark meaningful connections for every single person worldwide. The company's diversified portfolio includes major brands such as Tinder, Hinge, Match, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, Meetic, Pairs, Azar, and BLK, each catering to different demographics and preferences. Tinder, the flagship app, is known for its swipe-based interface and has a massive user base. Hinge is designed to be deleted, focusing on long-term relationships. Match.com, the original online dating site, targets a more mature audience. Other brands like Azar and Pairs serve international markets, particularly in Asia. From a business perspective, Match Group primarily generates revenue through subscription fees and à la carte purchases within its apps. Tinder offers tiered subscriptions like Tinder Plus, Gold, and Platinum, while other apps follow similar freemium models. The company also leverages advertising revenue. Financially, the company has shown strong revenue with a gross profit margin of approximately 74.8% and an EBITDA margin of 32.4%. In the trailing twelve months, it reported a net profit margin of about 20.2%, an ROE that is negative due to negative shareholder equity, but an ROIC of 23.3%. The company has a market cap of around $8.69 billion and pays a dividend yield of about 2.1%. Operationally, Match Group has a lean workforce of approximately 2,200 full-time employees, indicating a high revenue per employee. The company invests in research and development (12.7% of revenue) and sales and marketing (30.6% of revenue) to acquire users and enhance its platforms. Its business model benefits from high switching costs and network effects. Key leadership includes CEO Spencer Rascoff, who took office in February 2025, and CFO Steven Bailey. The company has a strong commitment to innovation, using data analytics to improve user experience and optimize marketing strategies. Despite intense competition from other dating apps, Match Group maintains a dominant market share. The company also faces challenges such as regulatory scrutiny and evolving user preferences, but it continues to adapt by launching new features and exploring emerging technologies like AI to enhance matching algorithms.ExpandCollapse

Financial Statements of MTCH

5Y Trend (Revenue, Earnings, FCF)

Metric	Latest	YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength.	QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes.
RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three).	$3.5B	+0.2%	-1.3%
Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day.	$613.4M	+11.3%	+2.2%
Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials.	+72.8%	+1.8%	+0.6%
Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on).	+25.0%	+5.7%	+5.1%
Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales.	+17.6%	+11.0%	+3.5%
Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock.	$1.0B	+16.0%	+102.6%
FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine.	+29.4%	+15.8%	+105.2%
Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe.	-1567.1%	+74.1%	+17.8%
Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking.	1.42x	-44.3%	+9.9%
Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground.	$4.5B	-0.1%	-8.5%

Q2 2026

Unknown Speaker

Operator: Welcome to the Match Group Second Quarter 26 Earnings Conference Call. All participants will be in listen only mode. Should you need assistance, please signal a conference specialist by pressing the star key followed by 0. After today's presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. Please note this conference is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Tanny Shelburne, Senior Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead. Tanny Shelburne: Thank you, operator, and good afternoon, everyone. Today's call will be led by CEO, Bernard Kim, and CFO Gary Swidler. They will make a few brief remarks, and then we will open it up for questions. Before we start, I need to remind everyone that during this call, we may discuss our outlook and future performance. These forward looking statements may be preceded by words such as we expect, we believe, we anticipate, or similar statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. And our actual results could differ materially from the views expressed today. Some of these risks have been set forth in our earnings release and our periodic reports with the SEC. Also during this call, we will discuss certain non GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the published materials on our IR website. These non GAAP measures are not intended to be substitutes for our GAAP results. With that, I would like to turn the call over to Bernard. Bernard Rascoff: Good afternoon, and thanks for joining us. This was a strong quarter for Match Group and an important 1 for Tinder. Over the past year, our priority at Tinder has been making the product work better for users. That includes improving our recommendations algorithms, introducing lower pressure ways to connect, like double date and modes, and up leveling trust and safety. Monthly active users, or MAUs, declines have narrowed significantly since we began this work. Supported by a better product experience that is improving user outcomes and increasing engagement. Daily active users, or DAU, trends have also improved meaningfully. And we expect them to turn positive year over year any day now. This is a huge milestone for us. It will be the first time that Tinder has had positive year over year usage in more than 3 years. To reach our ultimate goal of returning to MAU growth, we need to drive more reconsideration through product innovation and marketing. That means giving the millions of singles who have used Tinder before, and those who have never tried more reasons to download the app. Tinder's second half roadmap is geared to do exactly that. Meanwhile, Hinge continues to deliver strong growth with meaningful runway across product innovation, international expansion, and monetization. And at E&E, which now stands for Everyone Everywhere, we are sharpening the strategy and applying more of Match Group's shared capabilities. We …
