WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?
58%Services
ServicesProduct and Service, Other 42%
58% of all revenue comes from a single line: Services.

That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.

Revenue last year:
$3.5B
The net profit left over:
$613.4M
Out of every $100 in sales, $18 stays as net profit.
THE SLICE THAT TURNS INTO PROFIT: 18%

This is an established company with proven profits.

Cash on hand:
$1B
Total debt:
$4B
The debt outweighs the cash.

The gap is $2.9B. In times of high interest rates, a gap like that can squeeze a company.

THE PRICE TAG
MARKET VALUE / ANNUAL PROFIT
16.1×

The market pays 16.1× for every dollar of annual profit — around what a business like this usually costs.

Against companies in its own sector, it looks cheaper than 67% of them.

Analysts' average target sits 0% below today's price.

INSIDE THE REPORT CARD

We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.

A score of 50 means class average.

BUSINESS QUALITY
91
very strong

Profit power and business quality lead the class.

FINANCIAL STRENGTH
72
strong

A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.

VALUATION
67
strong

Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.

GROWTH
85
very strong

This grade is a blend: the profit side is strong, the sales tempo slow.

PRICE MOMENTUM
89
very strong

The stock has been running stronger than the market lately.

No real weak spot in any of the five subjects — a balanced report card.

THE FIVE-YEAR JOURNEY
A long and steep decline.

An investor who bought at the very peak is down 76% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.

1
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 1/3
A fat but narrowing margin

The net profit margin is 18% — still a thick cushion, though costs have been eating into it lately.

2
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 2/3
Executives are buying their own stock

Over the last 12 months, company executives reported 215 buys and 136 sells. Management buying with its own money is usually read as a good sign.

3
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 3/3
Pays a steady dividend

It pays out $0.78 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.

THE RISKS

Our checks did not surface a specific risk to flag here. That is not the same as there being none.

FINALE · THE GRADE
A+
87 / 100 · MoonshotScore

On our five-subject report card, MTCH sits near the top of the class. A high grade doesn’t mean “guaranteed win” — it means “the evidence looks strong for now.”

The takeaway: MTCH is an established business that has proven its profits for years. The real debate here isn’t the price — it’s whether the company can keep up this pace.

The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
