Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

1301 Second Avenue, Floor 36

Seattle, WA 98101

The 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Zillow Group, Inc. (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held on June 2, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) in a virtual-only format at meetnow.global/M7L2ATC, for the following purposes:

1. To elect three Class III directors (Amy C. Bohutinsky, Jay C. Hoag, and Gregory B. Maffei), each nominated by our Board of Directors to serve until the 2029 Annual Meeting of Shareholders;

2. To ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026; and

3. To transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

The Board of Directors of Zillow Group, Inc. has fixed the close of business on March 24, 2026, as the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”). Only shareholders of record of our Class A and/or Class B common stock as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of, to attend, and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Our Class C capital stock is non-voting (except in limited circumstances as required by Washington law or our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation). Shareholders of record of our Class C capital stock are not entitled to notice of, to attend, or to vote at the Annual Meeting with respect to their shares of Class C capital stock. If you hold shares of our Class C capital stock in addition to shares of our Class A or Class B common stock, your voting power with respect to the proposals to be presented at the Annual Meeting is limited to your Class A and Class B common stock ownership.

To be admitted to the Annual Meeting at meetnow.global/M7L2ATC, you must enter the control number found on your proxy card, voting instruction form, or notice. If your shares are held in the name of a broker, trust, bank, or other nominee that holds your shares, and you do not have a control number, you must register in advance with our transfer agent, Computershare, to attend the Annual Meeting. You may participate in the Annual Meeting, submit appropriate questions in writing before and during the Annual Meeting, and vote before and during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions available on the meeting website.

In accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, we intend to send a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on or about April 15, 2026, and provide access to our proxy materials online on that date to the holders of record of our Class A and Class B common stock as of the close of business on the Record Date.
