Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of DHI Group, Inc. (“DHI” or the “Company” or "we," "our" or "us") have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted and condensed pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments have been made to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year or any other future period.

Preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Management believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the condensed consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025.

2.    NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("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 annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on the Company's financial statement 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 statement disclosures.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("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 condensed 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 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.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts ratably over the service period. 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.

Short-term contract liabilities (deferred revenue)40,714 44,934 
Long-term contract liabilities (deferred revenue)268 522 

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable are recorded when customers are invoiced per the contractual billings schedules. As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company elected the practical expedient, where applicable. As a result, the Company does 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.

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 doubtful accounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and as an expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The portion of accounts receivable that is reflected as deferred revenue in the condensed 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.

Investment
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. The Company's investment in eFC was recorded at $1.9 million at September 30, 2025 and at $1.8 million at December 31, 2024.

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 three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 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. The Company recorded income related to its proportionate share of eFC's net income, net of currency translation adjustments and amortization of the basis difference of $0.1 million for each of the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and of approximately zero and $0.3 million for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

Other

During 2021, the Company invested $3.0 million through a subordinated convertible promissory note (the "Note") with 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. The investment was recorded as a trading security at fair value and was recorded at $3.0 million as of December 31, 2021.
In the third quarter of 2022, the Note was converted into preferred shares representing 4.9% of the outstanding equity in the underlying business, on a fully-diluted basis. The Company's preferred shares were substantially similar to shares purchased by a third party investor that resulted in such investor becoming the majority owner of the business. Therefore the Company's shares in the business were recorded at fair value based on the price per share realized in the conversion. The value of the Company's investment was $0.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and was recorded as an investment in the consolidated balance sheet.

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 a result, 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 and which brought the Company's ownership of the investment, on a fully diluted basis, to less than 0.10%. As a result, 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 third quarter of 2025, the third party investor sold the assets of the business with no proceeds allocated to the preferred and common shareholders, including the Company.

At September 30, 2025, the Company held preferred stock representing a 6.6% interest in the fully diluted shares of a tech skills assessment company. The investment is recorded at zero as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company recorded no gain or loss related to the investment during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

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 10. For income taxes, the recorded goodwill will be amortized over 15 years.

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 condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The recorded purchase price includes an estimation of the fair value of contingent obligations associated with potential earnout provisions, which is based on achieving certain new customer relationship targets. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of contingent earnout liabilities will be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations when incurred.

Acquisition related costs of $0.2 million incurred in connection with the transaction are recorded in general and administrative expenses on the condensed 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):

Dice Trademarks and Brand Name

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 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 assets to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded.

The determination of whether or not indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets have 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 intangible assets. If projections are not achieved, the Company could realize an impairment in the foreseeable future.

During the third quarter of 2025, because of the continuing impacts of tariffs, Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization initiative (DOGE), and artificial intelligence (AI) models lowering the demand for technology professionals, when combined with the demand impacts of uncertainty surrounding the U.S. federal budget in the third quarter, and the subsequent shut-down of the U.S. government, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $9.6 million, reducing the carrying value of the Dice trademarks and brand name to $14.2 million. No impairment was recorded during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024.

The projections utilized in the October 1, 2025 analysis included lower revenues in the near term due to tariffs, DOGE initiatives, AI, and uncertainty surrounding the U.S. government budget and then increasing revenues at rates approximating
industry growth projections. 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 an impairment in a future period.

AgileATS Technology

As discussed in Note 8, 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 each of the three and nine month-periods ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded $0.1 million of amortization expense associated with the AgileATS technology. The carrying amount at September 30, 2025 was $1.4 million.

AgileATS Tradename

As discussed in Note 8, 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 three and nine month-periods ended September 30, 2025 was insignificant. The carrying amount at September 30, 2025 was $0.1 million.

Goodwill GOODWILL
Goodwill as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 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 three month period ended March 31, 2025.

The Dice projections utilized in the organizational restructuring impairment test included increasing revenues at rates approximating industry growth projections. 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 an 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 8, 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. 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 September 30, 2025. Therefore, no impairment was recorded during the three month period ended September 30, 2025 and the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024.

Credit Agreement—In June 2022, the Company, together with Dice Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dice Career Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which matures in June 2027. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving loan facility of $100 million, with an expansion option of $50 million, bringing the total facility to $150 million, as permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest, payable at least quarterly, at the Company’s option, at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or a base rate plus a margin. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement denominated in pounds sterling, if any, bear interest at the Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") rate plus a margin. The margin ranges from 2.00% to 2.75% on SOFR and SONIA loans and 1.00% to 1.75% on base rate loans, determined by the Company’s most recent consolidated leverage ratio, plus an additional spread of 0.10%. The Company incurs a commitment fee ranging from 0.35% to 0.50% on any unused capacity under the revolving loan facility, determined by the Company’s most recent consolidated leverage ratio. All borrowings as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were in U.S. dollars. The facility may be prepaid at any time without penalty.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and also contains certain financial covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. Borrowings are allowed under the Credit Agreement to the extent the consolidated leverage ratio is equal to or less than 2.50 to 1.00, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Negative covenants include restrictions on incurring certain liens; making certain payments, such as stock repurchases and dividend payments; making certain investments; making certain acquisitions; making certain dispositions; and incurring additional indebtedness. Restricted payments are allowed under the Credit Agreement to the extent the consolidated leverage ratio, calculated on a pro forma basis, is equal to or less than 2.00 to 1.00, plus an additional $7.5 million of restricted payments each fiscal year, as described in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also provides that the payment of obligations may be accelerated upon the occurrence of events of default, including, but not limited to, non-payment, change of control, or insolvency. As of September 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Stock Repurchase Plans—The Company's Board of Directors ("Board") has approved stock repurchase programs that permit the Company to repurchase its common stock. Management has discretion in determining the conditions under which shares may be purchased from time to time. The number, price, structure, and timing of the repurchases, if any, are at our sole discretion and future repurchases are evaluated by us depending on market conditions, liquidity needs, restrictions under the agreements governing our indebtedness, and other factors. Share repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase authorizations do not oblige us to acquire any particular amount of our common stock. The Board may suspend, modify, or terminate a repurchase program at any time without prior notice. The following table summarizes the stock repurchase plans approved by the Board:

There were no unsettled share repurchases as of September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Stock Repurchases Pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated—Under the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated, and as further described in note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company repurchases its common stock withheld for income tax from the vesting of employee restricted stock or Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”). The Company remits the value, which is based on the closing share price on the vesting date, of the common stock withheld to the appropriate tax authority on behalf of the employee and the related shares become treasury stock.

Purchases of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated, were as follows:

No shares of the Company's common stock were purchased other than through the stock repurchase plans and the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated, as described above.

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 nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Our Credit Agreement limits our ability to declare and pay dividends. See Note 11 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 the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan and will continue 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 total stock-based compensation expense of $1.3 million and $3.9 million during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $1.8 million and $6.1 million during the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively. At September 30, 2025, there was $5.6 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 restricted stock grants is recorded over the vesting period as described below. There was no cash flow impact resulting from the grants.

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 three years for employees.

A summary of the status of restricted stock awards as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 and the changes during the periods then ended is presented below:

PSUs—PSUs are granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. These shares are granted under compensation agreements that are for services provided by the employees. The fair value of the PSUs is 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 applicable award 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 was no cash flow impact resulting from the grants of restricted stock and PSUs.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan—On March 11, 2020 the Company's Board of Directors adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). The ESPP was approved by the Company's stockholders on April 21, 2020. The ESPP provides eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of the Company's common stock through payroll deductions during six-month offering periods.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 15% and 12% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and (91)% and 139% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The following items caused the effective rate to differ from the statutory rate:

•Tax expense of $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and $0.1 million and $2.0 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, from the tax impacts of share-based compensation awards.
•A tax benefit of $0.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from the completion of a federal tax examination related to research credits.
•Tax expense of $0.4 million and $0.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, from deduction limitations on executive compensation.
•Tax expense of $1.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from nondeductible impairment charges.
•Tax expense of $0.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from state taxes related to research and development expenditures.
On July 4, 2025, the legislation commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. The changes resulting from the tax provisions in OBBBA include accelerated tax deductions for qualified domestic research expenditures. The Company expects a favorable cash flow impact in 2025 and 2026 from these changes. However, the Company does not expect its effective tax rate to be materially impacted by OBBBA.

Earnings Per Share EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus common stock equivalents, where dilutive. The following is a calculation of basic and diluted EPS and weighted-average shares outstanding (in thousands, except per share amounts):

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 condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following table provides an analysis of results by reportable segment (in thousands):

Class of Treasury Stock [Table Text Block]
Stock Repurchase Plans—The Company's Board of Directors ("Board") has approved stock repurchase programs that permit the Company to repurchase its common stock. Management has discretion in determining the conditions under which shares may be purchased from time to time. The number, price, structure, and timing of the repurchases, if any, are at our sole discretion and future repurchases are evaluated by us depending on market conditions, liquidity needs, restrictions under the agreements governing our indebtedness, and other factors. Share repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase authorizations do not oblige us to acquire any particular amount of our common stock. The Board may suspend, modify, or terminate a repurchase program at any time without prior notice. The following table summarizes the stock repurchase plans approved by the Board:
February 2025 to October 2025(1)

No shares of the Company's common stock were purchased other than through the stock repurchase plans and the 2022 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as Amended and Restated, as described above.

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 nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Our Credit Agreement limits our ability to declare and pay dividends. See Note 11 for additional disclosures.

Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life Employee Stock Purchase Plan—On March 11, 2020 the Company's Board of Directors adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). The ESPP was approved by the Company's stockholders on April 21, 2020. The ESPP 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. As of September 30, 2025, 108,021 shares were eligible for purchase under the ESPP. No shares were issued during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 54,229 and 81,874 shares, respectively, were issued under the plan.
