About Grindr

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Grindr is based in West Hollywood, California and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker GRND. The SEC classifies its business as computer programming, data processing, etc.. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $439.9m and net income of $94.8m.

In its own words

Our mission is to build the Global Gayborhood in Your Pocket™, and, through our success, to make a world where the lives of our global LGBTQ community are free, equal, and just. We manage and operate the Grindr platform, a global social networking platform primarily serving and addressing the needs of gay, bisexual, and sexually explorative adults around the world. We had 15.0 million, 14.2 million, and 13.3 million Average MAUs for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Additionally, we had 1.3 million, 1.1 million, and 0.9 million Average Paying Users for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. We enable our users to find and engage with one another, share content and interests, discover products and experiences relevant for them, and generally express their unique selves. As a “gayborhood” on our users’ mobile devices, our platform is a meaningful part of our users’ lives and has embedded us at the center of their communities, as they seek relationships of various forms, whether intimate, romantic, or social.

As a company built by gay people for gay people, Grindr fulfills crucial needs for its users. While the broader global landscape of social networks is highly competitive with many different platforms, there are few global platforms that focus solely on the gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (“GBTQ”) community and address their unique needs. Our platform enables GBTQ adults to connect with one another and the world. Our users have a range of intentions and use cases.
