Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies that are not consolidated are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as described in Notes 4 and 8 of the notes to consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts ratably over the service period. Billings with customers are based on contractual schedules. Customer billings delivered in advance and payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. We generate revenues from the following sources:

Recruitment packages. Recruitment package revenues are derived from the sale of a subscription to recruiters and employers that includes a combination of job postings and/or access to candidate profiles on ClearanceJobs and Dice. Certain of the Company’s arrangements include multiple performance obligations, which primarily consists of the ability to post jobs and access to candidate profiles. The Company determines the units of accounting for multiple performance obligations in accordance with Topic 606. Specifically, the Company considers a performance obligation as a separate unit of accounting if it has value to the customer on a standalone basis. The Company’s arrangements do not include a general right of return. Services to customers buying a package of available job postings and access to candidate profiles are delivered over the same period and revenue is recognized ratably over the length of the underlying contract, typically from one to twelve months. The separation of the package into two deliverables results in no change in revenue recognition because delivery of the two services occurs over the same time period.

Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is recognized over the period in which the advertisements are displayed on the websites or at the time a promotional e-mail is sent out to the audience.

Job Posting. Job posting revenues are derived from the sale of job postings to recruiters and employers. A job posting is the ability to list a job on the website for a specified time period. Revenue from the sale of classified job postings is recognized ratably over the length of the contract or the period of actual usage.
Career fair and recruitment event booth rentals. Career fair and recruitment event revenues, both live and virtual, are derived from renting booth space to recruiters and employers. Revenue from these sales are recognized when the career fair or recruitment event is held.
Cash—Cash consists of demand deposits with financial institutions.

Concentration of Credit Risk—Cash potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk as substantially all of its deposits were held in a single financial institution and were in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition as needed and does not require collateral on accounts receivable. No single customer represents 10% or more of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and no single customer represents 10% or more of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Credit Losses—The Company maintains allowances for estimated credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company's provision for credit losses is included in general and administrative expense. Customer billings included in deferred revenue are not considered at risk for credit losses. If the financial condition of DHI’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Statements of Cash Flows—All bank deposits are considered cash.

Capital expenditures on fixed assets included in accounts payable and accrued expenses2 168 1,009 

Fixed Assets—Depreciation of equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer software and capitalized website development costs are provided under the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from two to five years. Depreciation of leasehold improvements is provided over the shorter of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. The cost of additions and improvements is capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred.

Capitalized Software Costs—Capitalized software costs consist of costs to purchase and develop software for internal use. The Company capitalizes incurred software development costs in accordance with the Internal Use Software subtopic of the FASB ASC. Costs incurred during the application-development stage for software bought and further customized by outside vendors for the Company’s use and software developed by a vendor for the Company’s proprietary use have been capitalized. These costs are amortized over the software’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years.

Cloud Computing Arrangements—The Company incurs costs to implement cloud computing arrangements that are hosted by third party vendors. Implementation costs associated with cloud computing arrangements are capitalized when incurred during the application-development stage. The capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over approximately three years, which reflects the estimated useful life or contractual term of the underlying contract. Capitalized amounts related to such arrangements are recorded within other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Website Development Costs—The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in designing, developing, testing and implementing enhancements to its websites. These costs are amortized over the enhancement’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. Costs related to the planning and post implementation phases of website development efforts are expensed as incurred.

Capitalized Contract Costs—The Company capitalizes certain contract acquisition costs consisting primarily of commissions paid when contracts are signed. As allowed for by the practical expedient, the Company is using a portfolio approach for contract acquisition costs, which allows for a portfolio of contracts with similar characteristics to be pooled together. As a result, the Company has applied the portfolio approach to new business contracts and recurring or remaining business contracts. The Company reasonably expects that the effects of applying the portfolio approach would not differ materially from applying Topic 606 at the individual contract level. For costs incurred to obtain new business sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over an average customer life, which was approximately three years as of December 31, 2025. For the remaining sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over a period of one to two years as of December 31, 2025. See Note 4 for additional disclosures.

Leases—We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company primarily has operating leases for corporate office space and certain equipment. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of the lease liability is calculated on the basis of the present value of the remaining lease payments, and the right-
of-use asset is measured on the basis of this liability, adjusted by prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives, and initial direct costs. When readily available, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement of the lease, including the lease term. Because the implicit rate in each lease is not available, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Variable components of the lease payments, such as utilities and maintenance, are expensed as incurred and are not included in determining the present value. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-
line basis over the lease term.

Equity Method Investments—The Company has a non-controlling common share interest in eFinancialCareers ("eFC") (adjusted to 10% as of the third quarter of 2023) business as the Company does not have the ability to direct the activities of the business that most significantly impact their economic performance. The common share interests in eFC, during the periods of ownership, are being accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company does have the ability to exercise significant influence over the businesses. The recorded value is adjusted based on the Company's proportionate share of the businesses net income and is recorded three months in arrears. See Note 8 for additional disclosures.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Acquired Intangible Asset—Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset includes the Dice trademarks and brand name. The Company performs a test for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually on October 1, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the carrying value of the recorded asset is impaired. The impairment review process for goodwill compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which goodwill resides to its carrying value. The impairment review process for the indefinite-lived intangible asset compares the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. The determination of whether or not the asset has become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the Company’s reporting units or the intangible asset. Changes in the Company’s strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of goodwill or the indefinite-lived intangible asset. See Notes 10 and 11 for additional disclosures.

Foreign Currency Translation—Translation adjustments relate to the Company's equity method investment in eFC, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. The assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates and transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are charged to operations as incurred.

Advertising Costs—The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $12.5 million, $13.6 million and $14.9 million, respectively.

Income Taxes—The Company recognizes deferred taxes by the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The primary sources of temporary differences are amortization and impairment of intangible assets, depreciation of fixed assets, operating lease assets and liabilities, and capitalized contract costs.

Stock-Based Compensation—The Company has a plan to grant equity awards to certain employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. See Note 16 for additional disclosures.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The Company’s long-term debt consists of borrowings under its credit facility. Investments consist of common and preferred share ownership interests in businesses. See Notes 3 and 12 for additional disclosures.

Risks and Uncertainties—The Company is subject to the risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the rapidly evolving markets for online products and services. These risks include the failure to develop and extend the Company’s web sites and brands, the rejection of the Company’s services by customers, consumers, vendors and/or advertisers, the inability of the Company to maintain and increase the levels of traffic on its web sites, as well as other risks and
uncertainties. In the event that the Company does not successfully execute its business plan, certain assets may not be recoverable.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. DHI’s significant estimates include the useful lives and valuation of fixed assets, intangible assets, goodwill, lease right-of-use assets, investments, capitalized contract costs, income taxes, and the assumptions used to value the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”) of the Company.

Earnings per Share—The Company follows the Earnings Per Share topic of the FASB ASC in computing earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. When the effects are dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards as determined under the treasury stock method. Certain stock awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect. See Note 20 for additional disclosures.

New Accounting Pronouncements— In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current "incurred loss" model with an "expected loss" model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of a financial asset. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023, under the modified retrospective method as required by the standard. The Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $0.3 million to increase accumulated earnings and reduce the allowance for doubtful accounts as of January 1, 2023. Prior period amounts were not adjusted and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the period presented.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new accounting standard requires more detailed disclosures regarding the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and applied the new disclosure requirements retrospectively. See Note 17 for additional disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 will require companies to disaggregate, within the notes to the financial statements, certain expenses presented on the face of the financial statements to enhance transparency and help investors better understand an entity's performance. The amendment will specifically require that an entity disclose the amounts related to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. Entities will also be required to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, provide a definition of what constitutes selling expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). ASU 2025-06 addresses stakeholder and investor concerns on the challenges of applying current internal-use software accounting requirements that do not specifically address software developed using modern incremental and iterative methods, which has led to diversity in practice in determining when to begin capitalizing software costs. ASU 2025-06 requires software costs to be capitalized when management has authorized or committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendment removes all references to project development stages so that guidance is neutral to different software development methods. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-06 on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements ("ASU 2025-12"). ASU 2025-12 addresses suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification and to make other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and apply. The amendments in ASU 2025-12 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-12 on the Company's financial statements.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The FASB ASC topic on Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. As a basis for considering assumptions, a three-tier fair value hierarchy is used, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
 
•Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
•Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
•Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and long-term debt approximate their fair values. The estimated fair value of long-term debt of $30 million is based on Level 2 inputs.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, for example, when there is evidence of impairment. Such instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. These assets include equity investments, operating lease right-of-use assets, and goodwill and intangible assets which resulted from prior acquisitions. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable.

Impairment—The Company performs annual impairment tests for goodwill and the Dice trademarks and brand name as of October 1 of each year or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. See Notes 10 and 11 for additional disclosures. The Company evaluates the carrying value of equity investments at each reporting period as described in Note 8. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment of intangible assets of $9.6 million related to the Dice trademarks and brand name, an impairment of $7.8 million related to the Dice goodwill, an impairment of $1.4 million related to a right-of-use asset and an impairment of $0.9 million related to its investment in eFC. The Company recorded impairments of $0.4 million and $0.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to its investment in a values-based career destination company.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block] REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to our customers, either on a ratable basis over the contract period beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer or as the products and services are used, and at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts. The Company excludes sales tax from the transaction price and therefore, recognizes revenue net of applicable sales taxes. Customer billings delivered in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. The Company generates revenue from recruitment packages, advertising, classifieds, and virtual and live career fair and recruitment event booth rentals.

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable is recorded when customers are invoiced per the contractual billing schedules. As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company elected the expedient, where applicable. As a result, the Company did not consider the effects of a significant financing component. Contract liabilities include customer billings delivered in advance of performance under the contract, and associated revenue is realized when services are rendered under the contract.

Receivables increase due to customer billings and decrease by cash collected from customers. Contract liabilities increase due to customer billings and are decreased as performance obligations are satisfied under the contracts.

The Company recognized the following revenues as a result of changes in the contract liability balances in the respective periods (in thousands):

Credit Losses
The Company is exposed to credit losses through the inability of its customers to make required payments on accounts receivable. The Company segments accounts receivable based on credit risk characteristics and estimates future losses for each segment based on historical trends and current market conditions, as applicable. Expected losses on accounts receivable are recorded as allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets and as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The portion of accounts receivable that is reflected as deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets is not considered at risk for credit losses. If the financial condition of DHI's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

RESTRUCTURING RESTRUCTURING
In May 2023, the Company announced an organizational restructuring intended to streamline its operations, drive business objectives, reduce operating expenses and improve operating margins. The restructuring included a reduction of the Company’s then-current workforce by approximately 10%. As a result of the restructuring, the Company recognized charges of $2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The charges for the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted of $1.9 million of employee severance costs and $0.5 million of stock-based compensation related to the acceleration of restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units. All severance costs related to the May 2023 restructuring were paid during the year ended December 31, 2023.

In July 2024, the Company announced an additional organizational restructuring intended to streamline its operations, drive business objectives, and reduce operating costs. This included a reduction of the Company’s then-current workforce by approximately 7%. As a result of the restructuring, the Company recognized a charge of $1.1 million related to employee severance charges during the year ended December 31, 2024. All severance costs related to the July 2024 restructuring were paid during the year ended December 31, 2024.

In January 2025, the Company announced an additional organizational restructuring intended to separate its two brands, ClearanceJobs and Dice, into distinct divisions, provide dedicated leadership for each brand to foster a unified vision and strategy tailored to each brand's market dynamics, and to reduce operating costs. This restructuring included a reduction of the Company’s then-current workforce by approximately 8%. As a result of the restructuring, the Company recognized a charge of $2.3 million during the first quarter of 2025 related to employee severance costs, of which substantially all was paid during the year ended December 31, 2025.

In June 2025, the Company announced an additional organizational restructuring intended to reduce the operating costs of its Dice brand. This included a reduction of the Company’s then current workforce by approximately 25% primarily by reducing headcount within the Company's Dice brand and associated back-office support. As a result of the restructuring, the Company recognized a charge of $4.2 million during the second quarter of 2025 related to severance costs, of which $3.9 million was paid during the year ended December 31 2025. The remaining severance costs are expected to be substantially paid by March 31, 2026.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, Transaction between Entities under Common Control, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]  
BUSINESS COMBINATION BUSINESS COMBINATION
On July 31, 2025, the Company's ClearanceJobs reportable segment acquired AgileATS, a leading applicant tracking system (ATS) purpose-built for government contractors and employers hiring security-cleared professionals. The Company acquired certain assets, including AgileATS' ATS technology, and assumed certain liabilities of AgileATS. The acquisition qualified as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations and, accordingly, total consideration was first allocated to the fair value of assets acquired as of the date of acquisition, including liabilities assumed, with the excess being recorded as goodwill. For financial reporting purposes, goodwill is not amortized but rather evaluated for impairment as discussed in Note 11. For income taxes, the recorded goodwill will be amortized over 15 years. The acquisition was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements, either individually or in the aggregate. Consequently pro forma financial information presenting the results of operations as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period is not presented.

The Company acquired definite lived intangible assets related to the ATS technology and AgileATS tradename. The technology was valued using the cost to recreate method. This approach estimates the cost the Company would incur to develop a technology of comparable functionality. The cost was adjusted for obsolescence based on the age of the software code, lack of recent investment, and estimated remaining life. The AgileATS tradename was valued using the relief from royalty method. This method estimates fair value based on the present value of the royalty payments that would have been incurred if the Company had to license the asset, in an arm's length transaction. The valuation was based on revenue assumptions through December 31, 2030, a hypothetical royalty rate of 3.0%, income taxes of 25.3%, and a discount rate of 34.0%. The Company has assigned an estimated useful life of two years to the ATS technology and the ATS tradename. Amortization expense for these intangible assets is recorded in amortization expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

The recorded purchase price includes an estimation of the fair value of contingent obligations of $0.4 million associated with potential earnout provisions, which is based on achieving certain new customer relationship targets through July 2027 and $0.1 million of consideration as a holdback to satisfy certain indemnifications, payable July 2026 as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of contingent earnout liabilities, none as of December 31, 2025, will be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations when incurred. The maximum earnout to be achieved is $0.5 million.

Acquisition related costs of $0.2 million incurred in connection with the transaction are recorded in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.

The table below provides a summary of the total consideration and the purchase price allocation made for the AgileATS business combination (in thousands):

The Company reviews its right-of-use ("ROU") assets for impairment if indicators of impairment exist. The impairment review process compares the fair value of the ROU asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded. During the year ended December 31, 2025, due to headcount reductions related to restructurings, the Company began a search to sublease certain office space. As a result, the Company has performed an impairment analysis of the respective lease agreement. The fair value was determined using the present value of the expected sublease rentals that the Company expects could be generated over the remaining lease term. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, of which the ClearanceJobs segment was allocated $0.6 million and the Dice segment was allocated $0.8 million. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Investment INVESTMENTS
eFinancialCareers

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company sold a portion of its ownership in eFinancialCareers ("eFC") reducing its total interest in eFC from 40% to 10%. As a result of the sale, the Company received cash of $4.9 million and recognized a $0.6 million gain, which included a $0.2 million charge related to accumulated foreign currency loss that was previously a reduction to equity. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the investment's financial position deteriorated. As a result, the Company performed an impairment analysis of its investment, resulting in a $0.9 million impairment charge. The Company utilized level 3 inputs to determine fair value as follows (with weightings): 1) discounted cash flow (75.0%); 2) guideline public company (12.5%); and 3) guideline transaction (12.5%). The discounted cash flow methodology included declining revenues in 2026 and 2027 and then increasing revenues thereafter at rates approximating historical inflation rates. Cash flows were estimated to improve slowly during the forecast period becoming positive in 2027 and beyond. The discounted cash flow methodology utilized a discount rate of 22.1%. The Company's investment in eFC was recorded at $1.0 million and $1.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. A future decline in eFC's business could result in a further impairment of the Company's investment in eFC.

eFC is a financial services careers website, operating websites in multiple markets in four languages mainly across the United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Asia, the Middle East and North America. Professionals from across many sectors of the financial services industry, including asset management, risk management, investment banking, and information technology, use eFC to advance their careers. The Company has evaluated its common share interest in the eFC business and has determined the investment meets the definition and criteria of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Company evaluated the VIE and determined that the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the VIE, as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance. The common share interest is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over eFC. The investment was recorded at its fair value on June 30, 2021, the date of transfer, which was $3.6 million. The Company's equity in the net assets of eFC as of June 30, 2021 was $2.2 million. The difference between the Company's recorded value and its equity in net assets of eFC was reduced during the third quarter of 2023, as described above, as the Company reduced its ownership in eFC. The remaining basis difference at the time of sale was $0.3 million and is being amortized against the recorded value of the investment in accordance with ASC 323 Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Amortization expense during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was not significant. The recorded value is further adjusted based on the Company's proportionate share of eFC's net income and is recorded three months in arrears. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of income related to its proportionate share of eFC's net income, net of currency translation adjustments and amortization of the basis difference.

Other

At December 31, 2025, the Company held preferred stock representing a 6.6% interest in the shares of a tech skills assessment company. The investment is recorded at zero as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Company recorded no gain or loss related to the investment during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.
On January 1, 2023, the Company had a 4.9% preferred share investment in a values-based career destination company that allows the next generation workforce to search for jobs at companies whose people, perks and values align with their unique professional needs. During the third quarter of 2023, the investment's financial position deteriorated. To meet its financial obligations, the investment issued convertible debt at a price that indicated the value of the investment had declined. As such, the Company revalued its investment to $0.4 million and accordingly, recognized an impairment loss of $0.3 million during the third quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, the investment's financial position further deteriorated. To meet its financial obligations, the investment issued additional convertible debt at a price that indicated the value of the investment had declined. As such, the Company revalued its investment to zero and accordingly, recognized an impairment loss of $0.4 million during the first quarter of 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the investment was fully dissolved and ceased to exist. The Company received no proceeds from the dissolution.

Dice Trademarks and Brand Name

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset of $14.2 million and $23.8 million, respectively, related to the Dice trademarks and brand name. Considering the recognition of the Dice brand, its long history, awareness in the talent acquisition and staffing services market, and the intended use, the remaining useful life of the Dice trademarks and brand name was determined to be indefinite. We determine whether the carrying value of recorded indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets is impaired on an annual basis or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The annual impairment test for the Dice trademarks and brand name is performed on October 1 of each year. The impairment review process compares the fair value of the indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded.

The determination of whether or not the indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset has become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets. Fair values are determined using a relief from royalty rate methodology which estimates the value of the trademarks and brand name based on the amount of royalty income it could generate if it was licensed, in an arm's length transaction, to a third party. We consider factors such as historical performance, anticipated market conditions, operating expense trends and capital expenditure requirements. Changes in our strategy and/or changes in market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of the intangible asset.

The Company performed its annual impairment test on October 1, 2025 and as a result, recorded an impairment charge in the third quarter of 2025 of $9.6 million related to the Dice trademarks and brand name, reducing the carrying value to $14.2 million. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company utilized a relief from royalty rate methodology and level 3 inputs to value the Dice trademarks and brand name. The projections utilized in the analysis included lower revenues in the near term due to tariffs, Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization initiative ("DOGE") initiatives, AI, and uncertainty surrounding the U.S. government budget and then increasing revenues at rates approximating industry growth projections, a royalty rate of 4.0% and a discount rate of 21.0%. The Company’s ability to achieve these revenue projections may be impacted by, among other things, uncertainty related to demand for technology professionals, competition in the technology recruiting market, challenges in developing and introducing new products and product enhancements to the market and the Company’s ability to attribute value delivered to customers. If future cash flows that are attributable to the Dice trademarks and brand name are not achieved, the Company could realize a further impairment in a future period.

AgileATS Technology

As discussed in Note 6, the Company recorded a $1.5 million definite lived intangible asset during the third quarter of 2025 related to the AgileATS technology. The intangible asset is being amortized over its estimated remaining useful life of two
years. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded $0.3 million of amortization expense associated with the AgileATS technology. The carrying amount at December 31, 2025 was $1.2 million.

AgileATS Tradename

As discussed in Note 6, the Company recorded a $0.1 million definite lived intangible asset during the third quarter of 2025 related to the AgileATS tradename. The intangible asset is being amortized over its estimated remaining useful life of two years. Amortization expense during the year ended December 31, 2025 was insignificant. The carrying amount at December 31, 2025 was $0.1 million.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]  
GOODWILL GOODWILL
Goodwill as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $120.6 million and $128.1 million, respectively. During the first quarter of 2025, in connection with the organizational restructuring, which is further described in Note 5, the Company performed an interim impairment test of the Tech-focused reporting unit immediately prior to the restructuring, then allocated its goodwill into the two new reporting units, ClearanceJobs and Dice, based the relative fair value of each reporting unit, and finally tested each reporting unit's goodwill for impairment.

The interim impairment test performed immediately prior to the organizational restructuring indicated that the fair value of the Tech-focused reporting unit was substantially in excess of the carrying value as of the date of the organizational restructuring. The prior Tech-focused reporting unit's goodwill of $128.1 million was allocated to ClearanceJobs and Dice based on their relative fair values, which resulted in goodwill for ClearanceJobs and Dice of $97.4 million and $30.7 million, respectively.

The impairment test performed immediately after the allocation for the ClearanceJobs reporting unit indicated that the fair value was substantially in excess of the carrying value as of the date of the organizational restructuring. The impairment test performed immediately after the allocation for the Dice reporting unit resulted in the Company recording an impairment charge of $7.8 million during the first quarter of 2025.

The Company utilized level 3 inputs to determine fair value as follows with each method at a 50% weighting: 1) discounted cash flow and 2) guideline public company. The Dice projections utilized in the organizational restructuring impairment test included increasing revenues at rates approximating industry growth projections and a discount rate of 20.0%. The Company’s ability to achieve these revenue projections may be impacted by, among other things, demand for technology professionals, competition in the technology recruiting market, challenges in developing and introducing new products and product enhancements to the market and the Company’s ability to attribute value delivered to customers. If future cash flows that are attributable to the Dice reporting unit are not achieved, the Company could realize a further impairment in a future period. It is reasonably possible that changes in judgments, assumptions and estimates the Company made in assessing the fair value of goodwill could cause the Company to consider some portion or all of the goodwill of the Dice reporting unit to become impaired. In addition, a future decline in the overall market conditions, demand for technology professionals, and/or changes in the Company’s market share could negatively impact the estimated future cash flows and discount rates used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit and could result in an impairment charge in the foreseeable future.

As discussed in Note 6, the Company recorded additional goodwill in the ClearanceJobs reporting unit during the third quarter of 2025 of $0.3 million related to its acquisition of AgileATS.

The annual impairment test for the ClearanceJobs and Dice reporting units are performed on October 1 of each year. The Company’s ability to achieve the projections used in the annual impairment tests may be impacted by, among other things, general market conditions, competition in the technology recruiting market, challenges in developing and introducing new products and product enhancements to the market, and the Company’s ability to attribute value delivered to customers. If future cash flows that are attributable to the ClearanceJobs and Dice reporting units are not achieved, the Company could realize an impairment in a future period.

The annual impairment test for the ClearanceJobs and Dice reporting units performed as of October 1, 2025 resulted in the fair value of the reporting units being in excess of each respective carrying value. Results for the ClearanceJobs and Dice reporting units for the fourth quarter of 2025 and estimated future results as of December 31, 2025 approximate the projections used in the October 1, 2025 analysis. As a result, the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit is less than each respective carrying value as of December 31, 2025. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Section 382 Rights Plan—On January 28, 2025, the Company adopted a shareholder rights plan designed to protect stockholder value by preserving the availability of the Company’s net capital loss carryforwards (“Carryforwards”) and other tax attributes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (such plan, the “Section 382 Rights Plan”).
The Section 382 Rights Plan aims to preserve the Company's Carryforwards by creating a disincentive for any stockholder to accumulate beneficial ownership of 4.99% or more of the Company's outstanding common stock, or to further accumulate the Company's common stock if the stockholder's beneficial ownership already exceeds 4.99% in each case without the approval of the Company's Board of Directors in order to reduce the likelihood of an "ownership change" under Section 382 of the Code occurring, which could restrict the Company's ability to utilize its Carryforwards.

In connection with the adoption of the Section 382 Rights Plan, the Board declared a non-taxable dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock to the Company's stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 7, 2025. Each Right entitles its holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Company's Series 1 Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series 1 Participating Preferred Stock") at an exercise price of $17.00 per Right, subject to adjustment. As a result of the Section 382 Rights Plan, any person or group that acquires beneficial ownership of 4.99% or more of the Company's common stock without the approval of the Board would be subject to significant dilution in the ownership interest of that person or group. Stockholders who owned 4.99% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock as of February 7, 2025 will not trigger the Rights unless they acquire additional shares after that date.

Convertible Preferred Stock—As of December 31, 2024 the Company had 20 million shares of convertible preferred stock authorized, with a $0.01 par value. No shares have been issued and outstanding since prior to our initial public offering in 2007. The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation permits the terms of any preferred stock to be determined at the time of issuance. Simultaneously with the adoption of the Section 382 Rights Plan on January 28, 2025, the authorized but unissued convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01, have been cancelled.

Preferred Stock Purchase Rights—Pursuant to the Section 382 Rights Plan, the Company has authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one Right for each outstanding share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 7, 2025 ("Record Date"). Subject to certain limitations, the Rights will be separate from the common stock and become exercisable following (1) the 10th business day (or such later date as may be determined by the Board) after the public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (such person or group an "Acquiring Person") has acquired beneficial ownership of 4.99% or more of the common stock or (2) the 10th business day (or such later date as may be determined by the Board) after a person or group announces a tender or exchange offer that would result in ownership by a person or group of 4.99% or more of the common stock. The date on which the Rights separate from the common stock and become exercisable is referred to as the "Distribution Date." Following the Distribution Date, each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series 1 Participating Preferred Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $17.00 (the “Exercise Price”), subject to adjustment. Each one-thousandth of a share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not be redeemable; will be entitled to a quarterly dividend equal to the higher of $0.001 or an amount equal to the dividend paid on one share of common stock; will be entitled upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company to the higher of $1.00 or the per share amount distributed to common stock in such transaction; will have the same voting power per share of common stock and generally vote together with the common stock; and will be entitled to receive in a merger, consolidation or similar transaction of the Company the per share consideration payable to common stock in such transaction.

Dividends—No dividends were declared during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 or 2023. Our Credit Agreement limits our ability to declare and pay dividends. See Note 12 for additional disclosures.

On July 13, 2022, the stockholders of the Company approved the DHI Group, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, which had been previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors on May 13, 2022 (the "2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan"). The 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan generally mirrors the terms of the Company's prior omnibus equity award plan, which expired in accordance with its terms on April 20, 2022 (the "2012 Omnibus Equity Award Plan"). On April 26, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved the DHI Group, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated, which had been previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 16, 2023 (the "2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated"). The 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan was amended and restated to, among other things, increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance as equity awards under the plan by 2.9 million shares. The Company has previously granted restricted stock and PSUs to certain employees and directors pursuant to the 2012 Omnibus Equity Award Plan and continues to grant restricted stock and PSUs to certain employees and directors pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated. The Company also offers an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $4.9 million, $8.1 million, and $9.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2025, there was $4.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.9 years.

Restricted Stock—Restricted stock is granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and to non-employee members of the Company’s Board. These shares are part of the compensation plan for services provided by the employees or Board members. The closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant is used to determine the fair value of the grants. The expense related to the restricted stock grants is recorded over the vesting period as described below. There was no cash flow impact resulting from the grants.

The restricted stock vests in various increments on the anniversaries of each grant, subject to the recipient’s continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date. Vesting occurs over one year for Board members and over two to four years for employees.

A summary of the status of restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 and the changes during the periods then ended is presented below:

PSUs—PSUs are granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The fair value of the PSUs are measured at the grant date fair value of the award, which was determined based on an analysis of the probable performance outcomes. The performance period is over one year and is based on the achievement of bookings targets during the year of grant, as defined in the agreement. The earned shares will then vest over a three year period, one-third on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, or if later, the date the Compensation Committee certifies the performance results with respect to the performance period.

There were no cash flow impacts resulting from the grants.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan—The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"), which provides eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of the Company's common stock through payroll deductions during six-month offering periods. The purchase price per share of common stock is 85% of the lower of the closing stock price on the first or last trading day of each offering period. The offering periods are January 1 to June 30 and July 1 to December 31. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for purchase under the ESPP is 500,000, subject to adjustment as provided under the ESPP. Individual employee purchases are limited to $25,000 per calendar year, based on the fair market value of the shares on the purchase date. The first offering period commenced January 1, 2022. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, 98,112, 155,843 and 114,002 shares, respectively, were issued under the plan. The annual compensation expense under the plan was less than $0.1 million during each of the years.

An uncertain tax position represents the Company’s expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return, or planned to be taken in a tax return not yet filed, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's accrual for unrecognized tax benefits consists of the following:

20252024
Unrecognized tax benefits$526 $980 
Estimated accrued interest and penalties4380
Accrual for unrecognized tax benefits, as recorded$569 $1,060 
During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, interest expense (income) and penalties recorded in the consolidated statements of operations were $(0.04) million, $0.03 million, and $0.02 million, respectively. Following is a reconciliation of the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits, net of tax and excluding interest and penalties, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 (in thousands):

The balance of gross unrecognized benefits was $0.5 million, $1.0 million, and $1.0 million at December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. If the unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were recognized in full, tax benefits of $0.5 million, $1.0 million, and $1.0 million, respectively, would affect the effective tax rate.

The Company has filed income tax returns in the U.S. and various states. The Company is generally no longer subject to examinations by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years prior to 2022, or by U.S. state authorities for tax years prior to 2021.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information SEGMENT INFORMATION
In connection with the organizational restructuring in the first quarter of 2025, as described in Note 5, the Company changed its reportable segments to reflect the current operating structure. Accordingly, prior periods have been recast to reflect the current segment presentation. Management has organized its reportable segments based upon our internal management reporting and information provided to the chief operating decision maker "CODM" after the restructuring was completed.

The Company previously reported one segment, Tech-focused. Information previously reported in the Tech-focused segment has been separated into ClearanceJobs ("CJ") and Dice, and the Company has two reportable segments: ClearanceJobs and Dice.

ClearanceJobs is an online career community dedicated to connecting security-cleared professionals with employers in a secure and private environment to fill the jobs that safeguard our nation. Authorized U.S. government contractors, federal agencies, national laboratories and universities utilize ClearanceJobs to find candidates with specific, active or current security clearance requirements in a range of disciplines. The platform provides opportunities for employers and candidates to engage in real-time through messaging and live video, and for employers to promote differentiators through a multitude of branding products and features.

Dice is a destination for technology and engineering talent in the United States to find relevant job opportunities. The job postings available on Dice, from both technology and non-technology companies across many industries, include positions for software engineers, big data professionals, systems administrators, database specialists, project managers, tech professionals with AI skills, and a variety of other technology and engineering professionals.

Corporate includes general overhead not directly consumed by the segments such as interest expense, public company costs, compensation of certain executives and other professional fees. Corporate assets include all cash, income tax related assets, investments, and certain prepaid and other assets.
The Company has included additional disclosures regarding significant expenses regularly provided to our CODM. The Company’s CODM is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Given the restructuring from one to two segments, the measure of segment profit or loss has changed from consolidated net income to Adjusted EBITDA. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA to allocate resources to each segment, predominately through a budgeting and forecasting process. The CODM utilizes segment revenue, operating expenses and Adjusted EBITDA when making decisions about resource allocations. Resource allocation decisions include, among other things, investing in product development, sales and marketing, employee compensation, acquisitions, and stockholder programs.

All operations are in the United States and the Company does not have revenues and long-lived assets, which includes fixed assets and lease right of use assets, outside of the United States. The CODM is not provided assets in evaluating the results of the segments, and therefore, such information is not provided, except capital expenditures. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]
Cybersecurity is at the foundation of the Company's values and the way it approaches its users, professionals, and customers. We face a number of external threats common to companies in the industries we serve, such as ransomware, denial-of-service, phishing, and social engineering. Our customers, suppliers, and professionals face similar threats, and a cybersecurity incident impacting the Company or any of these entities could materially adversely affect the performance of our businesses, our results of operations, and our cash flows.

We maintain cyber event related insurance but we have also instituted an information security structure and process to assess, identify, manage, and, if necessary, report cybersecurity risks. We maintain a cybersecurity incident response process and a tracking system for any incidents in an effort to ensure appropriate actions are taken. Any member of the Company can report a suspected incident and it will be investigated.

We have implemented data security standards in our architecture and system design techniques. Reviews and testing of our systems and subsystems are performed at regular intervals and are designed to ensure our capability to respond to cybersecurity incidents or threats. Our cybersecurity framework is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework. In accordance with this framework, risks are analyzed for impact and probability to determine severity level, with classifications of critical, high, medium, or low risk. These processes have been integrated into our overall risk management system and processes and are part of our operating procedures, internal controls and information systems. In addition, we engage in an ongoing improvement process to enhance our cybersecurity posture.

Third parties also play a role in our cybersecurity. We engage third-party services to assist in the scanning and testing of our web properties and cloud infrastructure. We have a retainer with a cybersecurity response organization to immediately respond and provide professional expertise and assistance if necessary. Our process is designed to provide any required notifications in case of a cyber event, including those to federal, state, and local authorities, as well as to our insurance providers and auditors.

We also utilize a supply chain risk management process to assess cybersecurity risks associated with third-party software providers. We perform third-party risk assessments to both identify and mitigate risks from third parties such as vendors, suppliers, and others associated with our use of third-party service providers. Cybersecurity risks are evaluated when determining the selection and oversight of applicable third-party service providers and potential fourth-party risks when handling and/or processing our employee, business or customer data. In addition to new vendor onboarding, we perform risk management during third-party cybersecurity compromise incidents to identify and mitigate risks to us from third-party incidents.

The Company maintains a Security Council that regularly meets to review current or potential threats. The Security Council's membership consists of the following: the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer, Chief Information Officer, Director of Systems Engineering, and Internal Audit Director. We also employ a Security Department responsible for cybersecurity across the organizations. The individuals in this department are vetted for their
experience and expertise before joining the team and maintain continued education and training each year using our enhanced learning program. This department's responsibilities include cyber security risk management, security operations, awareness training, incident response, industry awareness and reporting. The team assesses and maintains awareness of global cyber security threats by using several services and notifications from our vendors. The team then considers each of these threats as applied to our environment, process, operations, vendors and clients. The Security Council is led by the Chief Information Officer, and Director of Systems Engineering, each of whom have a depth of knowledge and experience in the cyber security space.

SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
 12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies that are not consolidated are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as described in Notes 4 and 8 of the notes to consolidated financial statements.
Revenue [Policy Text Block]
Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts ratably over the service period. Billings with customers are based on contractual schedules. Customer billings delivered in advance and payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. We generate revenues from the following sources:

Recruitment packages. Recruitment package revenues are derived from the sale of a subscription to recruiters and employers that includes a combination of job postings and/or access to candidate profiles on ClearanceJobs and Dice. Certain of the Company’s arrangements include multiple performance obligations, which primarily consists of the ability to post jobs and access to candidate profiles. The Company determines the units of accounting for multiple performance obligations in accordance with Topic 606. Specifically, the Company considers a performance obligation as a separate unit of accounting if it has value to the customer on a standalone basis. The Company’s arrangements do not include a general right of return. Services to customers buying a package of available job postings and access to candidate profiles are delivered over the same period and revenue is recognized ratably over the length of the underlying contract, typically from one to twelve months. The separation of the package into two deliverables results in no change in revenue recognition because delivery of the two services occurs over the same time period.

Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is recognized over the period in which the advertisements are displayed on the websites or at the time a promotional e-mail is sent out to the audience.

Job Posting. Job posting revenues are derived from the sale of job postings to recruiters and employers. A job posting is the ability to list a job on the website for a specified time period. Revenue from the sale of classified job postings is recognized ratably over the length of the contract or the period of actual usage.
Career fair and recruitment event booth rentals. Career fair and recruitment event revenues, both live and virtual, are derived from renting booth space to recruiters and employers. Revenue from these sales are recognized when the career fair or recruitment event is held.
Cash—Cash consists of demand deposits with financial institutions.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Concentration of Credit Risk—Cash potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk as substantially all of its deposits were held in a single financial institution and were in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition as needed and does not require collateral on accounts receivable. No single customer represents 10% or more of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and no single customer represents 10% or more of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Credit Loss, Financial Instrument [Policy Text Block] Credit Losses—The Company maintains allowances for estimated credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company's provision for credit losses is included in general and administrative expense. Customer billings included in deferred revenue are not considered at risk for credit losses. If the financial condition of DHI’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Statements of Cash Flows—All bank deposits are considered cash.

The supplemental disclosures to the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows are as follows (in thousands):
 202520242023
Supplemental cash flow information:
Interest paid$2,447 $3,184 $3,471 
Taxes paid476 3,530 3,450 
Non-cash investing and financing activities:
Capital expenditures on fixed assets included in accounts payable and accrued expenses2 168 1,009 
Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment [Policy Text Block]
Fixed Assets—Depreciation of equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer software and capitalized website development costs are provided under the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from two to five years. Depreciation of leasehold improvements is provided over the shorter of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. The cost of additions and improvements is capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred.
Internal Use Software, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Capitalized Software Costs—Capitalized software costs consist of costs to purchase and develop software for internal use. The Company capitalizes incurred software development costs in accordance with the Internal Use Software subtopic of the FASB ASC. Costs incurred during the application-development stage for software bought and further customized by outside vendors for the Company’s use and software developed by a vendor for the Company’s proprietary use have been capitalized. These costs are amortized over the software’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years.
Cloud Computing Arrangements—The Company incurs costs to implement cloud computing arrangements that are hosted by third party vendors. Implementation costs associated with cloud computing arrangements are capitalized when incurred during the application-development stage. The capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over approximately three years, which reflects the estimated useful life or contractual term of the underlying contract. Capitalized amounts related to such arrangements are recorded within other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Preproduction Design and Development Costs [Policy Text Block]
Website Development Costs—The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in designing, developing, testing and implementing enhancements to its websites. These costs are amortized over the enhancement’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. Costs related to the planning and post implementation phases of website development efforts are expensed as incurred.

Capitalized Contract Costs—The Company capitalizes certain contract acquisition costs consisting primarily of commissions paid when contracts are signed. As allowed for by the practical expedient, the Company is using a portfolio approach for contract acquisition costs, which allows for a portfolio of contracts with similar characteristics to be pooled together. As a result, the Company has applied the portfolio approach to new business contracts and recurring or remaining business contracts. The Company reasonably expects that the effects of applying the portfolio approach would not differ materially from applying Topic 606 at the individual contract level. For costs incurred to obtain new business sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over an average customer life, which was approximately three years as of December 31, 2025. For the remaining sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over a period of one to two years as of December 31, 2025. See Note 4 for additional disclosures.

Leases—We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company primarily has operating leases for corporate office space and certain equipment. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of the lease liability is calculated on the basis of the present value of the remaining lease payments, and the right-
of-use asset is measured on the basis of this liability, adjusted by prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives, and initial direct costs. When readily available, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement of the lease, including the lease term. Because the implicit rate in each lease is not available, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Variable components of the lease payments, such as utilities and maintenance, are expensed as incurred and are not included in determining the present value. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-
line basis over the lease term.

Equity Method Investments—The Company has a non-controlling common share interest in eFinancialCareers ("eFC") (adjusted to 10% as of the third quarter of 2023) business as the Company does not have the ability to direct the activities of the business that most significantly impact their economic performance. The common share interests in eFC, during the periods of ownership, are being accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company does have the ability to exercise significant influence over the businesses. The recorded value is adjusted based on the Company's proportionate share of the businesses net income and is recorded three months in arrears. See Note 8 for additional disclosures.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Acquired Intangible Asset—Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset includes the Dice trademarks and brand name. The Company performs a test for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually on October 1, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the carrying value of the recorded asset is impaired. The impairment review process for goodwill compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which goodwill resides to its carrying value. The impairment review process for the indefinite-lived intangible asset compares the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. The determination of whether or not the asset has become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the Company’s reporting units or the intangible asset. Changes in the Company’s strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of goodwill or the indefinite-lived intangible asset. See Notes 10 and 11 for additional disclosures.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block] Foreign Currency Translation—Translation adjustments relate to the Company's equity method investment in eFC, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. The assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates and transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are charged to operations as incurred.
Advertising Cost [Policy Text Block]
Advertising Costs—The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $12.5 million, $13.6 million and $14.9 million, respectively.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Income Taxes—The Company recognizes deferred taxes by the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The primary sources of temporary differences are amortization and impairment of intangible assets, depreciation of fixed assets, operating lease assets and liabilities, and capitalized contract costs.
Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]
Stock-Based Compensation—The Company has a plan to grant equity awards to certain employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. See Note 16 for additional disclosures.
Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The Company’s long-term debt consists of borrowings under its credit facility. Investments consist of common and preferred share ownership interests in businesses. See Notes 3 and 12 for additional disclosures.
Unusual Risks and Uncertainties [Table Text Block]
Risks and Uncertainties—The Company is subject to the risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the rapidly evolving markets for online products and services. These risks include the failure to develop and extend the Company’s web sites and brands, the rejection of the Company’s services by customers, consumers, vendors and/or advertisers, the inability of the Company to maintain and increase the levels of traffic on its web sites, as well as other risks and
uncertainties. In the event that the Company does not successfully execute its business plan, certain assets may not be recoverable.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. DHI’s significant estimates include the useful lives and valuation of fixed assets, intangible assets, goodwill, lease right-of-use assets, investments, capitalized contract costs, income taxes, and the assumptions used to value the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”) of the Company.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Earnings per Share—The Company follows the Earnings Per Share topic of the FASB ASC in computing earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. When the effects are dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards as determined under the treasury stock method. Certain stock awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect. See Note 20 for additional disclosures.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]
New Accounting Pronouncements— In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current "incurred loss" model with an "expected loss" model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of a financial asset. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023, under the modified retrospective method as required by the standard. The Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $0.3 million to increase accumulated earnings and reduce the allowance for doubtful accounts as of January 1, 2023. Prior period amounts were not adjusted and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the period presented.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new accounting standard requires more detailed disclosures regarding the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and applied the new disclosure requirements retrospectively. See Note 17 for additional disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 will require companies to disaggregate, within the notes to the financial statements, certain expenses presented on the face of the financial statements to enhance transparency and help investors better understand an entity's performance. The amendment will specifically require that an entity disclose the amounts related to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. Entities will also be required to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, provide a definition of what constitutes selling expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). ASU 2025-06 addresses stakeholder and investor concerns on the challenges of applying current internal-use software accounting requirements that do not specifically address software developed using modern incremental and iterative methods, which has led to diversity in practice in determining when to begin capitalizing software costs. ASU 2025-06 requires software costs to be capitalized when management has authorized or committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendment removes all references to project development stages so that guidance is neutral to different software development methods. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-06 on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements ("ASU 2025-12"). ASU 2025-12 addresses suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification and to make other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and apply. The amendments in ASU 2025-12 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-12 on the Company's financial statements.

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable is recorded when customers are invoiced per the contractual billing schedules. As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company elected the expedient, where applicable. As a result, the Company did not consider the effects of a significant financing component. Contract liabilities include customer billings delivered in advance of performance under the contract, and associated revenue is realized when services are rendered under the contract.

Receivables increase due to customer billings and decrease by cash collected from customers. Contract liabilities increase due to customer billings and are decreased as performance obligations are satisfied under the contracts.
