8-KShutterstock Issues Statement on CMA's Interim Report February 19, 2026 1:39 PM EST NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Shutterstock, a family of brands delivering scalable creative and GenAI solutions, today issued the following statement on the UK Competition and Markets Authority's (CMA) provisional decision: "We are pleased to see the CMA's progress with respect to the proposed merger between Shutterstock and Getty Images, particularly its provisional finding that the merger is not expected to result in competition issues in the global Stock content market. We are disappointed and disagree with the CMA's provisional finding that the merger may result in a 'substantial lessening of competition' in the UK Editorial market. We do not believe the analysis or interim conclusions reflect the composition of the UK market, the level of regional competition within it or the alternatives available to customers. We will continue to engage constructively with the CMA and expect to file our response to the CMA's interim report in line with the CMA's timeline. We also continue to work cooperatively with the U.S. Department of Justice as its review progresses." About Shutterstock Shutterstock is in the business of turning ideas into impact.

8-KShutterstock Issues Statement on CMA's Interim Report February 19, 2026 1:39 PM EST NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Shutterstock, a family of brands delivering scalable creative and GenAI solutions, today issued the following statement on the UK Competition and Markets Authority's (CMA) provisional decision: "We are pleased to see the CMA's progress with respect to the proposed merger between Shutterstock and Getty Images, particularly its provisional finding that the merger is not expected to result in competition issues in the global Stock content market. We are disappointed and disagree with the CMA's provisional finding that the merger may result in a 'substantial lessening of competition' in the UK Editorial market. We do not believe the analysis or interim conclusions reflect the composition of the UK market, the level of regional competition within it or the alternatives available to customers. We will continue to engage constructively with the CMA and expect to file our response to the CMA's interim report in line with the CMA's timeline. We also continue to work cooperatively with the U.S. Department of Justice as its review progresses." About Shutterstock Shutterstock is in the business of turning ideas into impact.
