↑ 21%Glenn Schiffman, a director at Match Group, sold 20,030 shares for approximately $737,000 on 11 August 2026. The transaction involved exercising options at $24.45 per share and selling at a weighted average price of $36.78 per share. The sale reduced Schiffman's direct ownership by 27%, leaving him with 59,340 shares valued at $2.18 million based on the closing price that day. He continues to hold 53,760 derivative securities. Match Group operates dating platforms including Tinder, Hinge, and Match. The company has a market capitalisation of $8.4 billion and reported trailing twelve-month revenue of $3.5 billion. At the time of the transaction, the stock had delivered a 3% return over the previous year.
Major dating apps are pivoting away from the swiping model that built their businesses as user numbers decline and Gen Z seeks more meaningful connections. Match Group, which owns Tinder and Hinge, saw paying users drop 6% to 13.3 million in the second quarter, whilst Bumble's paying users fell 16.4% to 3.2 million. Global dating app downloads have declined for six consecutive years since peaking in 2019. Both companies are now emphasising quality over quantity. Tinder has expanded its Events feature to 10 cities, showing users local activities they can attend together. Bumble has eliminated its signature requirement that women message first and is testing a standalone app for curated in-person events. Hinge, which has long focused on conversation prompts rather than swiping, grew revenue 22% to $203.5 million last quarter, suggesting the strategy may work.
Match Group reported Q2 revenues of $853.1 million, down 1.2% year-on-year, meeting analyst expectations. The quarter delivered mixed results, with EBITDA guidance exceeding expectations but user numbers declining to 13.3 million, down 5.7% year-on-year. CEO Spencer Rascoff highlighted improvements to Tinder, including enhanced recommendation algorithms, new features like Double Date and Music Mode, and the app's first rebrand in nearly a decade. The company is focusing on re-engaging lapsed users and attracting new ones through in-person events now available in the US and Europe. Match Group's shares fell 10.5% following the results, currently trading at $36.91. The company delivered the weakest performance against analyst estimates amongst consumer subscription stocks tracked in Q2.
Match Group reported mixed second-quarter results, with revenue of $853.1 million falling slightly short of analyst expectations. The company missed adjusted earnings per share estimates at $0.91 versus $0.96 expected, though adjusted EBITDA of $331.3 million beat forecasts. CEO Bernard Rascoff attributed the performance to continued declines in monthly active users, particularly at Tinder, though engagement metrics like daily active users showed improvement. The company's payer count fell by 800,000 year-on-year to 13.3 million. Despite challenges, Match Group provided guidance for third-quarter revenue of $890 million and EBITDA of $332.5 million, both meeting or exceeding analyst expectations. Operating margin improved to 28.8%, up from 22.5% the previous year. Management discussed product enhancements and new features, including events and reimagined user profiles, aimed at improving engagement and attracting new users.
Match Group reported second-quarter results showing revenue of $853 million, down 1% year-over-year, whilst net income rose 36% to $171 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased 14% to $331 million, representing a 39% margin. Tinder's turnaround showed progress, with year-over-year daily active user declines narrowing to 4%, the best result in 10 quarters. Monthly active user declines improved across Tinder's top five revenue countries. Hinge grew revenue 22% year-over-year with monthly active users up 13%. The platform expanded into six European countries and four Latin American markets, whilst growing revenue 86% in its European expansion markets. The company repurchased 7.3 million shares for $245 million and paid $91 million in dividends. Match Group declared a $0.20 per share dividend payable in October 2026.
