Bailey Jr., Chief Financial Officer of Match Group (MTCH), received three award-based acquisitions (derivative conversions) on April 21, 2026: 41 shares, 210 shares and 447 shares, for a total of 698 shares. Each line is reported at $0.00 (these were conversions of dividend equivalents into common stock, not open-market purchases).

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-04-21; Form 4 filed: 2026-04-23 (timely filing).

  • Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided excerpt of the filing.
  • Relevant footnotes:
    • F1: Dividend equivalents convert into common stock one-for-one.
    • F2–F4: These dividend equivalents are tied to restricted stock units (RSUs) with staged vesting schedules (one set vested 1/3 on Mar 1, 2025 then 1/12 quarterly; another vested 1/3 on Mar 1, 2026 then 1/12 quarterly; another vests 1/12 quarterly beginning Jun 1, 2026).
  • Filing appears timely (within typical two-business-day Form 4 window).

Context
These entries reflect the conversion of accrued dividend equivalents into shares that vest per the RSU schedules—routine compensation/settlement activity—rather than an outright market purchase or sale. Such dividend-equivalent conversions are common and do not necessarily signal a change in insider sentiment about the stock.
