Match Group (MTCH) Beats on Paying Tinder Signups - RBC Capital

RBC Capital analyst Brad Erickson reiterated an Outperform rating and $190.00 price target on Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) after the company reported results showing Tinder was better-than-feared and the key contributor to growth in the quarter. The bigger contribution from payer penetration (up 17%) vs. revenue-per-payer (RPP - up 1%) suggests the company is seeing incremental conversion, likely in Europe as Covid lockdowns ease.

The analyst stated "Tinder payer penetration was the standout in the quarter supporting our long-term eroding online dating stigma thesis, particularly outside of the U.S. That said, APAC remains a headwind for online dating (particularly the Hyperconnect acquisition) given COVID that will need working out. Lowering estimates on ongoing weakness in APAC".
