Description: GRND Grindr January 12, 2026

Grindr Inc. (NYSE:GRND) runs a globally-focused social networking and dating app tailored to LGBTQ adults, offering both ad-supported free access and a premium subscription tier. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in West Hollywood, California, the firm markets its platform as the “Global Gayborhood in Your Pocket,” positioning itself as the leading niche social app in the Application Software sub-industry.

As of the most recent quarterly filing, Grindr reported approximately 5.8 million monthly active users (MAU) with a paid conversion rate near 7 %, generating roughly 55 % of revenue from subscriptions and the remainder from targeted advertising-a mix that is sensitive to broader digital ad spend cycles and discretionary consumer spending trends. The company’s growth outlook is closely tied to international expansion, especially in emerging markets where LGBTQ acceptance is rising, and to its ability to monetize higher-value premium features amid competitive pressure from larger dating platforms.
