Angel (NYSE: ANGX) (the “Company”), a media and technology company guided by 1.6 million grassroots Angel Guild members championing values-driven stories, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Company Highlights
- Third Quarter Revenues increased 280% year-over-year to $76.5 million. Revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, grew 223% to $211.6 million.
- The Company’s recurring revenue stream, the Angel Guild, contributed $59.2 million, representing 77% of total revenues for the quarter, growth of more than 556% compared to 2024.
- The Angel Guild grew to 1.6 million members in the third quarter, compared to 1.3 million members in the second quarter of 2025, and 258,000 members at the end of the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 19% from the second quarter of 2025, and up 620% year-over-year.
- Average Revenue Per Member “ARPM” was $13.70 for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2025.
- As the Angel Guild continues to grow beyond 1.6 million members, the demand for original television series is extremely strong. Angel will continue to invest in compelling, values-driven series that inspire and encourage ongoing Guild engagement.
- Net loss for the third quarter was $38.6 million, compared to $13.9 million in 2024, driven largely by increased marketing and content-related expenses tied to growth of the Angel Guild and theatrical releases. Contributing to the net loss were one-time expenses associated with the Company’s NYSE debut.
- In conjunction with its public listing, the Company closed a $100 million credit facility with Trinity Capital, a leading alternative asset manager.
- Total fully diluted shares outstanding were 168,631,209 as of September 30, 2025.

Management Commentary
“Our third-quarter results underscore the strength of our community and the momentum of our audience-first model,” said Neal Harmon, Co-Founder and CEO of Angel. “The Angel Guild has grown more than 500% year over year to 1.6 million paying members – a remarkable community that doesn’t just watch, but decides which values-driven films and series get made. We have an exciting slate of projects headed to theaters and the Angel platform, and as audiences seek stories that uplift and inspire, Angel is just beginning to meet that demand.”
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Total revenue was $76.5 million in the third quarter, and $211.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, compared to $20.1 million and $65.5 million in the prior year periods, respectively. The quarterly increase in revenues was due to an increase in Angel Guild Revenue of $50.2 million year-over-year.
Total cost of revenues for the third quarter was $34.3 million, compared to $8.1 million in the prior year. The increase was due to higher royalty expense of $17.0 million as a result of royalties earned by filmmakers, as they receive an allocation of net revenues generated during the quarter. We also saw higher costs related to the Angel Guild of $7.3 million driven by the increase in memberships during the quarter, consisting of increased transaction processing fees of $5.4 million.
Selling and marketing expense for the third quarter was $64.7 million, compared to $16.6 million in the prior year. This represents $44.1 million in strategic investments made to grow the Angel Guild, and $16.7 million to promote theatrical box office releases. As we continue to bring on additional content, drive Angel Guild memberships and promote future theatrical releases, this cost is expected to fluctuate, but overall remain high and be a significant component of our operating expenses.
Net loss was $38.6 million, a loss of ($0.25) per share, compared to a net loss of $13.9 million, a loss of ($0.10) per share, in the third quarter of 2024.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2025, Angel has cash and cash equivalents of $63.3 million, compared to $7.2 million as of December 31, 2024.
The Company continues to execute its treasury strategy to hold Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset, with BTC holdings now valued at $34.5 million.
