 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 
 Shutterstock Announces Capital Allocation Update

  

 New York, NY — July 22, 2026 — Shutterstock, Inc.
 (NYSE: SSTK) (the "Company"), a family of brands delivering scalable creative and GenAI solutions to help customers fuel great work, today announced that at a
 meeting held on July 20, 2026 its Board of Directors (the "Board") resolved to suspend the Company's future quarterly cash dividend.

  

 The Board's determination reflects its ongoing review of the Company's capital-allocation priorities and its focus on deploying capital to support long-term
 value creation for shareholders, including reducing debt, minimizing related interest expense and strengthening financial flexibility.

  

 The Board will continue to evaluate the Company’s capital allocation priorities as part of its regular governance process. Any future declaration and payment
 of dividends, and the amount thereof, will remain subject to the discretion of the Board and will depend upon, the Company's results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, applicable law, and such other
 factors as the Board deems relevant.

  

 Forward-Looking Statements

  

 This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than
 statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may discuss intentions and expectations as to future plans, trends, events, results of operations or financial condition, or otherwise. Forward-looking
 statements speak only as of the date they are made and should not be relied upon as predictions of future events, as there can be no assurance that the events or circumstances reflected in these statements will occur. Forward-looking statements can
 often, but not always, be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology including “believes,” ”could,” “expects,” “intends,” "may,” “might,” “ongoing,” “plans,” "seeks,” “should,” ”will,”  or the negative of these words and phrases, other
 variations of these words and phrases or comparable terminology, but not all forward-looking statements include such identifying words. Forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates and expectations that are subject to risks,
 uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking
 statements. The forward-looking statements in this press release relate to, among other things, the Company's capital allocation strategy, the suspension of the Company's quarterly cash dividend, the Company's plans with respect to debt reduction,
 interest expense management and financial flexibility, and any future declaration and payment of dividends. For a discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements, see
 the sections captioned “Risk Factors” and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's Quarterly Reports
 on Form 10-Q, and the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. While those factors are considered representative, no list of risk factors should be considered a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.
 Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements, and the Company disclaims any such obligation, except as may be
 required by law.
