 leadership are focused on growing the business despite the broader challenges in the category and creating a sustainable, profitable business over the next three years and beyond. We also had robust engagement with investors in the lead-up to and during our inaugural 2024 Investor Day to get your perspectives on our business, strategy, approach to capital allocation and more.

As we laid out at Investor Day, prudent capital allocation is a key pillar of stockholder value creation—which means balancing strategic and deliberate organic investment in the business with meaningful stockholder returns, including plans to return at least 100% of free cash flow to stockholders over the next three years through share repurchases and a new quarterly dividend.

The accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement describe the business to be conducted at the Match Group 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Also included are a WHITE proxy card and postage-paid return envelope. WHITE proxy cards are being solicited on behalf of the Board.

Your vote is especially important at this year’s Annual Meeting . As you may have seen, Anson Investments Master Fund LP (together with its affiliates, "Anson") has nominated Kelley Morrell, Fumbi Chima and Laura Lee (each, an "Anson Nominee" and together, the "Anson Nominees") for election as directors at the Annual Meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by your Board.

Your Board does not endorse the Anson Nominees. None of the Anson Nominees brings additive skills and expertise to the Board, and as a result, your Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of the three nominees proposed by the Board (Stephen Bailey, Melissa Brenner and Alan G. Spoon), and as the Board recommends on all other proposals recommended by the Board using the WHITE proxy card.

You may receive solicitation materials from Anson, including proxy statements and a Blue proxy card or Blue voting instruction form. Match Group is not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any information provided by or relating to Anson or its nominees contained in solicitation materials disseminated by or on behalf of Anson or any other statements Anson may make. Although the Company is required to include all nominees for election on its universal proxy card, for additional information regarding the Anson Nominees, including the information required by Item 7 of Schedule 14A and any other related information, please refer to Anson’s proxy statement.

Your Board strongly encourages you to simply DISREGARD and NOT to return any
