Outlook, CEO Interview and Shareholder Webinar
Consistent growth has continued into the second half, reflecting both organic growth and the acquisition of MEDIAL, including upsales of SEEEN’s solutions to the MEDIAL customer base, whilst continuing to drive improved profitability.
Adrian Hargrave, Chief Executive Officer of SEEEN, will discuss the Company's interim results and trading update with Sarah Lowther for focusIR. Details can be found here: https://media.focusir.com/SEEEN1H26
SEEEN plc will also be holding a webinar for shareholders on Friday 2 October 2026 at Noon BST – you can sign up for and watch the webinar at this link: https://investor.seeen.com/webinars/Pbn6nP-investor-update-2026-interim-results
Adrian Hargrave, CEO of SEEEN, commented:
“As outlined at the FY25 results, we have continued our growth momentum into 1H26, delivering both significant organic growth and the strategic, financially accretive acquisition of MEDIAL. This period represents the third year of more than 40% growth in revenues with positive momentum continuing into 2H26.
During the period, we successfully grew all parts of the business with technology growing by 50% and our CSP business growing by 35%. This demonstrates that we have a clear value proposition for video owners in the age of AI, as customers use our algorithms to both better monetise video directly or make them more discoverable on third part platforms, ranging from YouTube to Claude and ChatGPT.
The acquisition of MEDIAL is a strong blueprint for the type of acquisition or partnership we are looking for. We acquired a business with a well-established client base in the education and corporate training sector, generating significant annual recurring revenues for video-based solutions. We have already proven that we can integrate and upsell our SEEEN technology to some of its core customers, driving new multi-year deals, as well as direct upsells. As we deepen the integration of the two products, we expect this will only accelerate and also make our offering more attractive to a wider customer base.
With our strong customer results and references and ongoing growth and acquisition/partnership pipeline, we look forward to continuing to deliver strong compounded growth of the business at both the revenue and profit levels and delivering value for our shareholders.”

CEO’s Statement
Since the start of 2024, SEEEN has delivered compounded annual revenue growth of more than 40%. During the first half of 2026, this has driven positive earnings at all levels. In addition, SEEEN took the important strategic step of acquiring MEDIAL, the first acquisition made by the Group since its IPO. MEDIAL brings with expertise in the provision of video technology and storage in the education and training sector with more than 60 customers into which SEEEN can upsell its technology. We have already begun to see the synergistic benefits of this acquisition with some key customers agreeing to longer term contracts. Through the combination of SEEEN’s organic growth engines and the acquisition of MEDIAL, we have put in place the necessary components to maintain our compound growth rate by adding new customers and cross-selling and up-selling to more of our existing customers.
During the half, group revenue increased by 45% to $3.0 million (1H25: $2.1 million), including approximately 40% organic growth and two months of contribution from MEDIAL. Gross profit increased by 52% to $0.8 million, and EBITDA rose to $0.2 million (1H25: $0.1 million). Importantly, we have also reported our maiden positive EPS of 0.11c, which should rise disproportionately as revenues compound.
Our technology continues to help customers make more effective use of their video content: identifying the moments that matter, making them easier to find and using them to drive engagement and revenue. We have continued to develop our relationships with existing customers while seeking opportunities to sell our technology alongside our content services.
The acquisition of MEDIAL has added more than 60 customers and approximately $0.8 million of annual recurring technology revenue. It also provides us with an established video platform and a wider customer base to which we can introduce SEEEN’s AI-infused Key Video Moments and interactive video capabilities. We have started to bring these products together by combining MEDIAL’s long form lecture content with SEEEN’s ability to generate and search directly for key video moments within a library of content. This has led to a unique offering that enables students to find the pieces they need faster, making learning more efficient. We have already started signing up new clients for this combined offering, including one of MEDIAL’s flagship customers switching from a one-year rolling contract to a 3-year agreement.
We also agreed a strategic collaboration with Tiger Tracks to introduce SEEEN’s video commerce solutions to its pay per click customer base. This gives us another route to reach businesses that are already investing in digital customer acquisition and would benefit from using interactive video to improve the return on that investment by lowering customer acquisition costs from Pay Per Click marketing.
At 30 June 2026, the Group held cash of $0.6 million, following the acquisition of MEDIAL. Operating cash flow before working capital movement was breakeven. We continue to manage expenditure carefully while investing in the product and commercial work needed to support our rapid growth.
Appointment of CFO
SEEEN has appointed Nic Hellyer as non-board CFO on a fractional basis. Nic qualified as a Chartered Accountant with KPMG in London and then moved into investment banking where he advised small and midcap companies in a wide range of transactions, including IPOs, fundraisings, public company M&A and private company sales and acquisitions, holding senior roles at UBS and HSBC. Latterly he has served on a number of other public company boards in CFO and non-executive director roles.
Outlook
Growth has continued into the second half of the year, reflecting continued organic growth and a fuller contribution from MEDIAL, including selling SEEEN’s solutions to the MEDIAL customer base. Furthermore, we have seen increased engagement and faster sales cycles with sports organisations based around our Century Club offer.
Our priorities for the remainder of 2026 are to develop the combined MEDIAL and SEEEN offering, deepen customer relationships and convert our commercial pipeline across all our business lines. The first half has shown our ability to continue growing revenue while improving profitability and making a strategic acquisition. We now need to build on that progress by delivering the full benefits of the Enlarged Group and driving further growth by focusing on executing on sales, customer delivery and new partnerships in our core target sectors.

Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Information
for the six months ended 30 June 2026
The Group is a global media and technology platform that delivers Key Video Moments and Video Commerce to transform its clients’ video profitability.
The Company is a public limited company domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated under registered number 10621059 in England and Wales. The Company’s registered office is 27-28 Eastcastle Street, London W1W 8DH.
Basis of preparation and changes to the Group’s accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial information are consistent with those of the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for both the completed year ended 31 December 2025 and anticipated year ending 31 December 2026. No new IFRS standards, amendments or interpretations became effective in the six months to 30 June 2026.
Statement of compliance
This interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2026 has been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standards (“Adopted IFRSs”). This interim consolidated financial information is not the Group’s statutory financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025, which have been prepared in accordance with Adopted IFRS and have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2026 is unaudited. In the opinion of the Directors, the interim consolidated financial information presents fairly the financial position, and results from operations and cash flows for the period. Comparative numbers for the six months ended 30 June 2025 are unaudited.
This interim consolidated financial information is presented in US Dollars ($), rounded to the nearest dollar.
Foreign currencies
Functional and presentational currency
Items included in this interim consolidated financial information are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates which is considered by the Directors to be Pounds Sterling (£) for the Parent Company and US Dollars ($) for all the Company’s subsidiaries. This interim consolidated financial information has been presented in US Dollars which represents the dominant economic environment in which the Group operates. The effective exchange rate at 30 June 2026 was £1 = US$1.325 (30 June 2025: £1 = US$1.373).
Acquisition accounting
The acquisition of Medial has been accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The purchase price allocation and the resulting fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional at the reporting date, pending completion of the Group's assessment of certain fair values and other acquisition accounting matters.
Accordingly, the amounts recognised in respect of the consideration transferred, identifiable net assets acquired and goodwill are subject to change as further information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. Any adjustments arising from the completion of the acquisition accounting will be recognised retrospectively in accordance with the measurement period requirements of IFRS 3.
The provisional fair values and related amounts included in these interim financial statements are based on information available to management at the reporting date and may therefore differ from the amounts that will be included in the Group's subsequent annual financial statements once the acquisition accounting has been finalised.
Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of interim consolidated financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, the resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
In preparing this interim consolidated financial information, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025, together with the recognition of development expenditure, described below.
Development expenditure
The Group recognises costs incurred on development projects as an intangible asset which satisfies the requirements of IAS 38. The calculation of the costs incurred includes the percentage of time spent by certain employees and contractors on relevant development projects. The decision whether to capitalise and how to determine the period of economic benefit of development projects requires an assessment of the commercial viability of the projects and the prospect of selling the project to new or existing customers. During the six months ended 30 June 2026, the Group capitalized $0.2m of development expenditure (1H25: $0.2m).
Going Concern
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future, and for this reason they have adopted the going concern basis of preparation in the consolidated interim financial statements.
The majority of trade payables and receivables relate to receivables from YouTube and payables to creator partners. In addition, trade and other payables includes accruals for expenses to be accrued during the year, payments to consultants who are paid monthly in arrears and historic liabilities of the acquired businesses that relate to payables more than two years ago and the Group does not expect to need to pay.
The profit per share has been calculated using the loss for the period and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, as follows:
