Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces a Class Action Lawsuit Against Match Group, Inc (MTCH)

NEW YORK, Feb. 26, 2016 -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces they have filed a class action lawsuit against Match Group, Inc. (“Match Group” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:MTCH) and certain other defendants in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Match Group securities pursuant or traceable to the Company’s Registration Statement and Prospectus (collectively, the “Registration Statement”) issued in connection with the Company’s Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”) which commenced on or about November 18, 2015. Plaintiff seeks to pursue remedies against Defendants under §§ 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933.

On November 19, 2015, Match Group sold 33,333,333 shares at $12.00 per share as part of its Initial Public Offering. Then on February 2, 2016, Match Group revealed to investors a decline in total user growth and per-user revenue, and the cannibalization of users and revenues across competing platforms. They also revealed that the Company’s net income has consistently fallen and that there had been a decline in revenue in their Princeton Review segment.

Shares of Match Group fell from a close of $12.79 prior to the announcement, to a recent close of just $9.76 on February 4, 2016.
