LendingTree's CFO, Jason Bengel, pointed out an improved capital position over the preceding year, noting a drop in net leverage from 5x to 3x. The robust growth in Adjusted EBITDA, combined with positive operating leverage stemming from stringent expense management, positions the company favorably for executing its growth strategy. Additionally, LendingTree's guidance for the third quarter and full-year 2025 reflects optimism, with the anticipated revenue expected to range between $273 million to $281 million for Q3 and between $1.0 billion to $1.05 billion for the full year.
