Published

on

ABU DHABI, UAE, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Anghami Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGH) (“Anghami”), the leading music and entertainment streaming platform in the MENA region, today announced its consolidated financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025, marked by revenue growth and subscribers reaching 3.5 million with a registered user base now exceeding 130 million, supported by landmark strategic partnerships.

HIGHLIGHTS

Revenue increased to $99.3 million in 2025, up 27% from $78.1 million in 2024. Growth came from subscriber gains across OSN+ and Anghami Plus, and the first full-year consolidation of OSN+ (April 1, 2024).Paid Subscribers exceeded 3.5 million across Anghami and OSN+, and registered users crossed 130 million.Warner Bros. Discovery closed its $57 million minority investment in OSN Streaming Limited in March 2025, expanding the content partnership and committing to joint investment in regional original production.Multiple strategic partnerships launched for OSN+ with Noon as well as a regional distribution agreement with talabat and the first-of-its-kind “Epic Bundle” with Shahid and Disney+ in December, delivering strong subscriber traction, high activation rates, and above-average conversion, reinforcing Anghami’s expanding distribution and monetization ecosystem.

Commenting on Anghami’s results, Elie Habib, CEO of Anghami, said: “2025 was the first full year of the combined Anghami and OSN+ business, and a year in which the scale of the opportunity became clear. Revenue grew 27% to $99.3 million. Paying subscribers exceeded 3.5 million, and our registered user base crossed 130 million across the MENA region.

We made important progress across the business. We rebuilt the OSN+ platform in-house, launched our first OSN+ Original, expanded strategic distribution partnerships with talabat and Noon, and signed the Epic Bundle with Shahid and Disney+, bringing three leading entertainment platforms into one subscription for the first time in the region. Warner Bros. Discovery’s investment in OSN Streaming Limited reflects confidence in our model, our market position, and the long-term value of premium regional streaming. Our HBO content commitments remain contractual and unchanged.

With a stronger product, a deeper content slate, Ramadan momentum, and early Epic Bundle traction, we enter 2026 focused on scaling revenue, improving unit economics, and converting momentum into sustainable growth.”

BUSINESS UPDATE

2025 marked a significant year in Anghami’s evolution as it progressed the integration of OSN+ into its multi-media streaming ecosystem and expanded its content, partnerships, and technology capabilities.

Anghami continued to invest in its proprietary technology, including AI-powered content recommendations, and completed the in-house rebuild of the OSN+ streaming platform, delivering improved performance, 4K capabilities, and full control over the user experience. 

In January 2025, OSN+ premiered its original production The Fashionista, reinforcing the platform’s investment in locally relevant content alongside its exclusive HBO catalogue, which includes House of the Dragon, The Last of Us, and Game of Thrones.

In March 2025, Warner Bros. Discovery announced an agreement to acquire a minority stake in OSN Streaming Limited, Anghami’s majority shareholder, investing $57 million. The transaction expands the existing content partnership and includes plans to jointly invest in locally produced content targeting regional audiences.

OSN+ partnerships with talabat and Noon expanded distribution and opened new customer acquisition channels, while high-profile live events including the Amr Diab & Adam Port concert in Abu Dhabi and Nancy Ajram Riyadh Boulevard activation reinforced Anghami’s cultural leadership position. Regional conflicts have impacted live events and regional content production; however, Anghami continued to scale its cultural footprint through flagship initiatives such as “Aktar Men Ayya Waqt,” a pan-Arab collaboration uniting leading artists across the region, alongside a focused Ramadan content strategy that delivered resilient engagement and outperformed industry trends that typically see lower metrics during the period.

As the year drew to a close, OSN+ launched the “Epic Bundle”, a first-of-its-kind bundled subscription with Shahid and Disney+, bringing all three platforms together under a single plan and broadening content access for consumers.

Anghami also continued to expand its telco partnership ecosystem in 2025, maintaining integrations with 45 telco operators across the MENA region. Telco partnerships serve as a dual-purpose growth lever by facilitating frictionless subscription payments, helping Anghami maintain one of the highest paying conversion rates among music streaming services in the MENA region, while also providing a significant marketing channel through co-branded campaigns and data bundle offerings.

From a financial perspective, revenue increased to $99.3 million in 2025, from $78.1 million in 2024, driven by subscriber growth across Anghami Plus and OSN+ and the first full-year contribution from the OSN+ video streaming segment which was consolidated from 1 April 2024. Profitability was impacted by the fixed video content licensing fees reflecting the full 12 month impact compared to 2024.

During 2025 and early 2026, the Company strengthened its Board of Directors with the appointments of Bassil Almouallimi (SRMG), James Cooke (Warner Bros. Discovery), Moustapha Chami (KIPCO), and Eman Al Awadhi (KIPCO).

OUTLOOK

Anghami is positioned to capitalize on continued growth in digital entertainment demand across the MENA region. The Company’s platform-led partnerships enhance distribution, content access and audience reach, further differentiating Anghami within an increasingly competitive streaming market.

Strategic collaborations with leading regional and global platforms, including Shahid, Disney+, talabat, and the expanded Warner Bros. Discovery relationship, are expected to remain key growth drivers. The content lineup is set to remain exceptional throughout the year, featuring highly anticipated global releases and returning flagship series. This includes A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Euphoria Season 3, Season 2 of The Pitt, which has emerged as one of the most widely watched series globally, and Season 4 of FROM. This is further reinforced by upcoming seasons of The House of the Dragon and a robust pipeline of award-winning and globally successful films, including major 2025 theatrical releases such as Sinners, Superman, and other leading box office titles.

Building on this early traction, Anghami aims to scale embedded and bundled distribution models to support more efficient user acquisition and deeper engagement across its core markets.

Management remains focused on balancing growth with operational discipline, as continued investment in platform capabilities, reshaping content acquisition costs, advertising optimization and partner integrations support scale benefits over time. As these initiatives mature, Anghami aims to drive improved monetization and stronger operating leverage across its digital entertainment platform that will lead to material unit economics improvements in 2026.

Anghami’s annual report on Form 20-F (the “Form 20-F”) for the year ended December 31, 2025 was filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Form 20-F can be accessed by visiting either the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or the Company’s website at https://www.anghami.com/investors.

Xinhua Silk Road: Seven marine test “labs” put in place in offshore waters near Yuanyao port in Weihai, E China

Published

on

By

BEIJING, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In waters north of Yuanyao fishery port in east China’s Weihai City, a recent round of drone marine testings by a local marine equipment institute pooled firsthand data for references to its product R&D.

Such testings that move corporate “laboratories” into the sea are increasingly favored by businesses in Weihai as seven marine testing platforms have been completed in the port area, also the Yuanyao shallow sea sci-tech bay area.

In details, the seven platforms include an offshore self-elevating wharf, a semi-submersible platform, a testing wharf, etc., all of which provide vital support to the technological R&D of related businesses.

Currently, 44 companies have been attracted to settle in the sci-tech bay area, which serves as a key carrier for emerging marine-related industries such as marine electronic information, marine intelligent equipment, and modern maritime services to thrive there.

Near the Yuanyao fishery port now stands the semi-submersible marine test platform, which is the first one of the type in Shandong Province where Weihai sits and also a core part of the national marine comprehensive test site project in Weihai.

As a staff of the sci-tech bay area’s service center introduced, the 44-meter-long and 32.4-meter-wide platform can operate at a maximum water depth of 70 meters and is equipped with multiple supporting systems.

For instance, the power system, test facilities, marine environment observing and monitoring system, and security system of the platform are capable of catering to diverse needs of scientific researchers including short-term on-site operations, instrument lifting and retrieval, and real-time transmission of offshore data.

Apart from these marine testing platforms, the sci-tech bay area is also crafting another seven scientific research platforms to offer all-around intellectual support for the national marine comprehensive test site in Weihai.

While marine testings are ongoing on the testing platforms, onshore zones in the sci-tech bay area are busy with building more innovative infrastructure including the marine data management and application center.

In Weihai, the integrated deployment of offshore, onshore and on-island marine-related platforms is unlocking strong potential for local industries to burgeon.

Antare launches AI physical security platform, transforming unwatched camera footage into intelligence

Published

Antare uses AI to automatically review footage from body-worn and fixed cameras to give organisations a complete picture across every shift and site

LONDON, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Antare, a new agentic security platform for body-worn and fixed cameras, has launched. UK-based Antare uses artificial intelligence to automatically review security footage, detect incidents, alert teams and document every event, transforming everyday operations into actionable insight that helps improve performance and reduce operational risk. The platform is compatible with both Antare’s intelligent body-worn cameras and customers’ own existing fixed camera infrastructure.

Antare’s body-worn cameras capture the moments before, during and after every incident, preserving the context that helps organisations understand what really happened, protect their employees, and manage their liabilities. This matters because abuse and violence towards frontline staff is rising and incidents often do not have a defined beginning. Employees no longer have to remember to start a recording in the middle of a confrontation.

The Antare Console reviews all video and audio as it is recorded, and transcribes, indexes and scores each event automatically. Separate AI agents watch for specific signals, including physical and verbal assaults, suspicious behaviour, safety risks, medical events or weapons, and send in-the-moment alerts and live video to colleagues via the Antare App.

Antare also surfaces patterns that manual review is prone to miss, like repeat offenders, theft hotspots and recurring problems across sites. Free text search allows users to investigate further, while daily email summaries ensure key events are never missed.

Available today

Antare offers two models of body-worn cameras that work out of the box for US, UK, and EU customers. The Antare Body-worn Camera Pro is designed for frontline staff in demanding environments where extended battery life, GPS capabilities and rugged durability are important.

The Antare Body-worn Camera Compact is a lightweight alternative, intended for customer-facing teams who need discreet protection during their shifts. The Antare Dock charges four cameras at once between shifts.

Both models, including cellular connectivity and unlimited users for the Antare Console, are available through a simple, all-inclusive monthly subscription, with no minimum order quantity and no fixed term.

One platform, every camera

The Antare Cloud Gateway, coming soon, integrates the full range of Antare’s cloud capabilities with customers’ existing fixed cameras, so body-worn and fixed cameras live in a single console, with no separate systems to manage.

Customers can also choose from a range of pre-configured alarms, as well as configure their own alarms via free text description.

Antare’s own fixed camera range is set to follow in early 2027, supplied and installed by accredited partners. Partners can register interest now at www.antare.ai/partners.

Privacy and data protection

Footage is encrypted on Antare devices and in transit, then erased from the device once it reaches the secure cloud, where access is role-based. Data is stored in your local region – UK, EU or US – and deleted automatically after 30 days unless an authorized user marks it for retention. Antare is SOC 2 Type I certified and GDPR compliant, with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications in progress.

Mark Michaelides, CEO of Antare:

“Antare was founded on the belief that today’s physical security platforms are failing to deal effectively with emerging safety and operational risks, leaving businesses with expensive legacy investments that do not fulfil their evolving needs.

“Traditional security solutions have focused on after-the-fact review, while more modern systems have enabled live alerts. Antare has built a different type of intelligence platform to deliver both, while shortening time from alert to triage and enabling quicker post-incident investigation.

“Following strong results in trials across private security, hospitality and retail customers, Antare is available on subscription for body-worn cameras from today, with the Antare Cloud Gateway coming soon. One console that turns disparate data into action, intelligence, and insights.”

About Antare

Antare is the physical security intelligence platform that turns every captured event into organisational insight. It continuously detects, reviews and interprets everything that happens across every site and operation – so nothing is missed, and every incident is clearly understood.

Starting with body-worn and fixed cameras, and expanding across every capture point, Antare gives organisations the confidence to report accurately, respond effectively, and build a complete picture of risk and performance over time. Antare is headquartered in the United Kingdom. For more information, visit www.antare.ai.
