Other Events.
On August 30, 2019, the Board of Directors of Match Group, Inc.

Following this increase, as of August 30, 2019, a total of 11.3 million shares remain available under the repurchase program. The repurchase program does not have a fixed expiration. The timing and actual number of any shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. The program may be effected through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the repurchase program, and repurchases may be commenced, suspended or discontinued from time to time without prior notice.
