Currently there are three possible tiers for membership, Basic with Ads, Basic, and Premium. All memberships allow voting for every Angel Studios release, give early access for streaming, and help fund our original films, increasing new content releases. The Basic and Premium tiers have no ads during shows and the Premium tier includes two complimentary tickets to every Angel Studios theatrical release and a discount for all merchandise . ● Theatrical Distribution revenue comes from releasing our original films with our exhibitor partners. Every time a moviegoer purchases a ticket from the partner theaters, we receive a percentage of the box office revenue. For most international theaters, the percentage of box office revenue is first paid to a distributor who then pays us . ● Content Licensing revenue comes from licensing our films and TV shows to other distributors such as Amazon, Apple and Netflix. Our future plans include licensing the rights to our films and TV shows for other experiences such as derivative shows, video games, theme parks and Broadway-style plays . ● Other revenue is generated from sales of merchandise related to our films and series, as well as physical DVD sales. We also offer a direct online store for Angel Studios themed products and wholesale products to retail partners . Founding We were founded in 2013 by our Chief Executive Officer, Neal Harmon, along with his brothers Daniel, Jeffrey and Jordan, and their cousin, Benton Crane. Bitcoin Treasury Strategy: Seeking to Empower the Angel Guild for Generations As of June 30, 2026, we held an aggregate of approximately 303.1 bitcoin. This equates to 1.6252 bitcoin per million shares of our Common Stock. We plan to continue to acquire and hold bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset as an adjunct to our core film and TV distribution business. The continued implementation of our bitcoin treasury strategy aims to support our mission-driven approach of funding the world's best filmmakers in producing stories that amplify light for generations to come. The overall strategy contemplates that we may (i) enter into capital raising transactions that are collateralized by our bitcoin holdings, (ii) consider pursuing strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings and (iii) periodically sell bitcoin for general corporate purposes, including to generate cash to meet our operating requirements. Financings and Recent Developments Common Stock Offering - April 2026 I n April 2026, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with an unaffiliated third party for the issuance and sale of 16,445,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock at a price to the public of $2.10 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $32.5 million, after underwriting discounts, commissions, and estimated offering expenses. ​ Regulation A Offerings From time to time, we conduct offerings under Regulation A of the Securities Act, the proceeds of which we use for working capital and other general corporate purposes. In September 2025, we sold an aggregate of 6,688,077 shares of our Class A Common Stock, pursuant to an offering under Regulation A. The price of the Class A Common Stock was $8.23 per share, and the Regulation A Offering generated gross proceeds of approximately $55.0 million. We used the proceeds from the Regulation A Offering to manage our business and provide working capital for our operations, as well as expenses relating to salaries and other compensation to our officers and employees. At the Market Offering On December 5, 2025, we entered into an equity distribution agreement (the "Equity Distribution Agreement"), dated as of December 5, 2025, with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., TCBI Securities, Inc., doing business as Texas Capital Securities, Maxim Group LLC and Roth Capital Partners, LLC (each, a "Sales Agent," and together, the "Sales Agents"), providing for the offer and sale to or through the Sales Agents, from time to time, shares of our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $150,000,000. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold an aggregate of 196,348 shares of our Class A Common Stock, generating gross proceeds of $1.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we sold no shares of our Class A Common Stock from the equity distribution agreement. In accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our Common Stock at any time and from time to time through the Sales Agents. Sales of the shares, if any, will be made by means of transactions that are deemed to be "at the market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including block trades and sales made in ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of the sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The Sales Agents will receive from us a commission of up to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share for any shares sold through it under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The net proceeds we receive from the sale of our Common Stock in this offering will be the gross proceeds received from such sales less the commissions and any other costs we may incur in issuing the shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Sales Agents are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares but will use their commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf any shares to be offered under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Under the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, we also may sell shares to the Sales Agents as principals for their own account to the extent permitted under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Loan and Security Agreement with Warrant Offering ​ On September 8, 2025, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with certain lenders, which provides us with an up to $100.0 million term loan with a delayed draw feature, which is composed of four committed tranches: (i) the first tranche in an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million, which was funded on the closing date; (ii) the second tranche in an aggregate principal amount equal to $20.0 million, which was drawn in February 2026; (iii) the third tranche in an aggregate principal amount equal to $20.0 million, which may be drawn by December 31, 2026 and (iv) the fourth tranche in an aggregate principal amount equal to $20.0 million, which may be drawn by June 30, 2027. The availability of each tranche will be subject to achievement by us of certain conditions, including, without limitation, achievement of a specified minimum annualized recurring revenue and receipt by us of a minimum of net cash proceeds from the sale or issuance of equity. Borrowings under the credit facility will be used to pay off certain of our existing indebtedness, as well as for general working capital purposes and business operations. In connection with the credit facility, we issued each lender thereunder a warrant to purchase an aggregate amount of 1,462,682 shares of our Class A Common Stock with an exercise price per share of $7.29. The warrants vest and become exercisable in proportion to and in conjunction with the advancement of each tranche under the credit facility. The warrants will expire on September 11, 2030. As part of the initial draw, the lenders received warrants to purchase 585,072 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. As part of the second tranche draw, the lenders received warrants to purchase 292,537 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. Homestead Merger ​ On November 14, 2025, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Homestead Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, Angel Black Autumn Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Black Autumn Show, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Black Autumn") and the Stockholder Representative (as defined in the Homestead Merger Agreement), pursuant to which we will acquire directly or indirectly all of the equity interests of Black Autumn, which owns the rights to the Homestead movie and series.

All capitalized terms used in this paragraph are used as defined in the Homestead Merger Agreement . See further discussion of related party in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. ​ Toothy Cow Productions Merger ​ On November 14, 2025, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended and restated on June 29, 2026, the "TCP Merger Agreement"), by and among Angel TCP Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Toothy Cow Productions, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company ("TCP"), and the unitholder representative, pursuant to which we will acquire directly or indirectly all of the equity interests of TCP, which owns the rights to the Wingfeather Saga series. Under the terms of the TCP Merger Agreement, if the merger is completed, at the effective time of the merger, the following consideration will be payable: at the effective time, all of the issued and outstanding TCP Units will be cancelled and extinguished and converted automatically into the right to receive a portion of the TCP Aggregate Stock Consideration equal to the TCP Aggregate Stock Consideration multiplied by such TCP Unitholder's TCP Adjusted Percentage Interest at the effective time of the merger . All capitalized terms used in this paragraph are used as defined in the TCP Merger Agreement. In connection with the pending acquisition and pursuant to rights established under the existing distribution agreement, the Company has committed to fund the production of additional seasons of The Wingfeather Saga (the "Wingfeather Production Funding"). The Company is contractually obligated to complete the TCP Merger before October 31, 2026, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, the TCP Merger has not closed. ​ Tuttle Twins Show Merger ​ On November 14, 2025, we entered into an agreement and plan of merger (as amended and restated on June 29, 2026, the "TTS Merger Agreement") pursuant to which we will acquire directly or indirectly all of the equity interests of Tuttle Twins Show, LLC ("TTS"), which owns the rights to the Tuttle Twins series. Under the terms of the TTS Merger Agreement, if the merger is completed, at the effective time of the merger, the following consideration will be payable: at the effective time of the merger, all of the issued and outstanding TTS Units will be cancelled and extinguished and converted automatically into the right to receive the TTS Merger Consideration, consisting of, as applicable, (a) for TTS Investors, an amount per TTS Investor Unit in cash equal to the TTS Investor Per Unit Cash Consideration and a number of shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock per TTS Investor Unit equal to the TTS Investor Per Unit Stock Consideration and (b) for TTS Key Operators, a number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock per TTS Key Operator Unit equal to the TTS Key Operator Per Unit Stock Consideration. All capitalized terms used in this paragraph are used as defined in the TTS Merger Agreement. In connection with the pending acquisition and pursuant to rights established under the existing distribution agreement, the Company has committed to fund the production of additional seasons of The Tuttle Twins Show (the "Tuttle Twins Production Funding"). The Company is contractually obligated to complete the TTS Merger before October 31, 2026, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, the TTS Merger has not closed . ​ Asset Purchase Agreement ​ The Company entered into a term sheet (the "Term Sheet") with 2521 Entertainment, LLC ("2521", together with the Company, the "JV Partners") that sets forth the principal terms and conditions governing the joint venture between the JV Partners, through Giant Slayer Media LLC ("Giant Slayer Media" or the "JV"). The Term Sheet, pursuant to its terms, became binding on October 7, 2025, upon the execution of that certain Asset Purchase Agreement by and between Slingshot USA LLC ("Slingshot") and Giant Slayer Media, also dated as of October 7, 2025 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). The Term Sheet will remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the execution of the definitive Limited Liability Company Agreement for the JV (the "LLCA") and a distribution agreement between the Company (or one of its affiliates) and Giant Slayer Media (the "Distribution Agreement") or (b) the mutual agreement of the JV Partners to terminate the Term Sheet. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Company contributed $31,366,686 and 2521 contributed $46,550,473 in cash to the JV. Moreover, the Company was credited, as a capital contribution, an amount equal to $2,342,277 on account of a previous investment with Slingshot, which resulted in the Company's total initial capital contribution of $33,708,963. Following the cash contribution by the JV Partners, the equity split in the JV became 42% to the Company and 58% to 2521. ​ Separately, under the Term Sheet, the JV Partners agreed to negotiate in good faith and execute definitive agreements to implement the terms of the Term Sheet, including the Asset Purchase Agreement, the LLCA and the Distribution Agreement, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the JV Partners. The LLCA became effective on October 2, 2025, and the Distribution Agreement became effective on November 19, 2025. ​ Under the Term Sheet, and by means of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Giant Slayer Media acquired substantially all of the assets of Slingshot related to the animated feature film, DAVID, the associated works and certain other ancillary rights and obligations, for an aggregate purchase price of $77,917,159 in cash. Further, except as may be otherwise provided in the Distribution Agreement: (a) Giant Slayer Media acquired ownership of the Purchased Assets under the Asset Purchase Agreement; (b) each of the JV Partners agreed to assign, and caused its affiliates and personnel to assign, to Giant Slayer Media all rights, title and interest in and to any derivative works, sequels, prequels, spinoffs or other works based on or derived from the Purchased Assets and (c) all such rights will automatically vest in Giant Slayer Media without further action. The Company or its relevant affiliate is acting as the distributor of the Purchased Assets under the Distribution Agreement, which contains specific payment terms, events of default and guaranty terms. The relationship of the JV Partners in the JV is governed by the LLCA, which contain specific terms regarding the distribution of proceeds received from the Company under the Distribution Agreement and other terms relating to the management of the JV. ​ In addition to the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Term Sheet, the Asset Purchase Agreement also provided for, upon the closing of the transactions contemplated therein, the revocation by Slingshot of its deemed termination of the distribution agreement between the Company and Slingshot and the dismissal of the current lawsuit, brought by Slingshot against Angel Studios Licensing, LLC, the Company's affiliate, pursuant to a Confidential Dismissal Agreement and Mutual Release effective as of October 7, 2025, by and between Angel Studios Licensing, LLC and Slingshot. The Dismissal Agreement resolved in full the action titled Slingshot USA, LLC v. Angel Studios Licensing, LLC, Case No. 250401064, in the Fourth Judicial District Court, Utah County, State of Utah, and any and all claims arising from or relating to the parties' prior content distribution agreement concerning DAVID and Young David. Slingshot dismissed the Lawsuit with prejudice on October 8, 2025. ​ P&A Subsidiaries ​ Over the past year, we have formed several subsidiaries (each, a "P&A Subsidiary") to exploit the commercial potential of specific films. Generally, a P&A Subsidiary enters into a distribution agreement with a filmmaker/production company to license the rights to market and distribute a film. The P&A Subsidiary then executes a services agreement with us to market the film's theatrical release. The P&A Subsidiary also sublicenses the film to us for distribution via the Angel App and our website, as well as to other distribution networks. In exchange for our right to distribute the film, we retain a share of revenue generated by our distribution of the film to the Guild. P&A Subsidiaries have dual class voting structures: preferred shares, which are offered to investors under Regulation A; and common shares, which we purchase at formation and which are the sole voting shares of a P&A Subsidiary. Typically, the preferred shares have a 'Stated Value' of 115-120% of the price at which the shares are sold. A P&A Subsidiary's board of directors may, upon determining that the company has sufficient available funds, pay the Stated Value to preferred shareholders. Payments are made from receipts generated by the film's theatrical release, after movie theaters have taken their negotiated share. If revenue generated from a film's theatrical release is insufficient to pay the Stated Value, P&A Subsidiaries may pay the Stated Value from revenue generated by the film's distribution, merchandising sales, and other commercial exploitation. Upon full payment of the Stated Value, a P&A Subsidiary's preferred shares are automatically redeemed, and we become the entity's sole owner. After a P&A Subsidiary has redeemed its preferred shares, the subsidiary splits remaining revenue with the filmmaker according to the terms of the Distribution Agreement. We are legally distinct from the P&A Subsidiaries, and investments in them are distinct from an investment in us. A P&A Subsidiary is formed solely to exploit the commercial potential of a single film, and proceeds generated from a subsidiary's offering of preferred shares are used to market and distribute that one film. A P&A Subsidiary has no other business or assets other than its exploitation of the rights to the film. The subsidiary's shareholders do not have any rights to our assets or securities if a film does not perform well financially. Investors in our common stock are investing in us and our business, which is broader than the marketing of a single film. Investors in our Common Stock do not have any right to payment of any amounts from the receipts of a film's theatrical release prior to dividend payments made to the shareholders of the P&A Subsidiaries. P&A Subsidiaries are required to file current and periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to Rule 257(b) of Regulation A. Unlike us, P&A Subsidiaries do not have reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. ​ Financial Operations Overview Revenues ​ Historically, we have primarily generated revenue from the Angel Guild, theatrical distribution, content licensing and other. See "Revenue" for more information. ​ Cost of Revenues ​ Cost of revenues represents the direct costs incurred by us in generating our revenue. These costs include expenses directly associated with the goods or services sold during the reporting period. Components of cost of revenues include licensing royalty expense, hosting, merchandise costs, credit card fees, freight and shipping costs and costs of services provided. Operating Expenses ​ Selling and Marketing : Selling and marketing expenses include the promotion of the Angel Guild and increasing memberships, as well as current and future theatrical releases. As we continue to bring on additional content, drive Angel Guild memberships and promote future theatrical releases, this cost is expected to continue to rise. Research and Development : Research and development expenses consist of the addition of personnel necessary to continue our focus on improving existing products, optimizing existing services and developing new technology to better meet the needs of our customers and partners. General and Administrative : General and administrative expenses consist of the increased support staff necessary to manage the continued and expected growth of the business, including payroll and related expenses for executive, finance, content acquisition and administrative personnel, as well as recruiting, professional fees and other general corporate expenses. Legal : Legal expenses include costs incurred in connection with legal proceedings, regulatory matters, compliance obligations, and corporate governance. Legal expenses may fluctuate based on the nature, timing, and complexity of matters encountered by us. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP measure used by management to assess operating performance, is defined as net income/(loss), excluding interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and the (gain)/loss on digital assets, as well as exceptional items. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance to evaluate the performance of the Company's business operations, to facilitate comparisons of operating results across reporting periods, and to assist in planning and forecasting future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income/(loss) or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. We present Adjusted EBITDA in this filing because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Period-to-period comparison of Adjusted EBITDA helps our management identify additional trends in our company's financial results that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparison of net income/(loss). In addition, we believe that providing Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income/(loss), helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, different capitalized asset values, different forms of employee compensation and different strategic nonrecurring projects. Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool because of the excluded items, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: ​ ● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense and interest income because these items are not directly attributable to the performance of our business operations and may vary over time due to a variety of financing transactions that we have entered into or may enter into in the future. ● Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and the (gain)/loss on digital assets. We believe that excluding the effect of these expenses from Adjusted EBITDA assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons in our company's operating performance because the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. ​ A reconciliation between net income/(loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is presented below: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the three months ended June 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 Reconciliation of net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net loss ​ $ (23,794,026) ​ $ (15,706,671) Interest expense, net ​ 2,549,512 ​ 1,334,702 Depreciation and amortization ​ 3,083,526 ​ 2,212,851 Stock-based compensation ​ 3,541,895 ​ 2,126,929 Net loss (gain) on digital assets ​ ​ 2,935,243 ​ ​ (7,452,328) Adjusted EBITDA ​ $ (11,683,850) ​ $ (17,484,517) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 Reconciliation of net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net loss ​ $ (37,550,082) ​ $ (53,036,803) Interest expense, net ​ 7,873,833 ​ 1,774,166 Depreciation and amortization ​ 6,183,955 ​ 4,439,035 Stock-based compensation ​ 7,013,855 ​ 4,759,765 Net loss (gain) on digital assets ​ ​ 8,780,298 ​ ​ (4,153,223) Adjusted EBITDA ​ $ (7,698,141) ​ $ (46,217,060) ​ Results of Operations The following represents our performance highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the three months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 Revenues ​ $ 111,705,930 ​ $ 87,641,416 ​ $ 24,064,514 ​ ​ ​ 27 % Cost of revenues ​ 51,749,499 ​ 27,286,383 ​ 24,463,116 90 % Selling and marketing ​ 61,141,780 ​ 61,510,343 ​ (368,563) (1) % General and administrative ​ 12,408,923 ​ 9,838,725 ​ 2,570,198 26 % Research and development ​ 4,000,891 ​ 3,644,278 ​ 356,613 10 % Legal expense ​ ​ 916,221 ​ ​ 6,685,984 ​ (5,769,763) (86) % Operating loss ​ (18,511,384) ​ (21,324,297) ​ 2,812,913 13 % Net gain (loss) on digital assets ​ (2,935,243) ​ 7,452,328 ​ (10,387,571) (139) % Interest expense ​ (3,094,406) ​ (2,742,902) ​ (351,504) (13) % Interest income ​ 544,894 ​ 1,408,200 ​ (863,306) (61) % Other income (expense) ​ ​ 202,113 ​ ​ (500,000) ​ ​ 702,113 140 % Loss before income tax benefit ​ (23,794,026) ​ (15,706,671) ​ (8,087,355) (51) % Income tax benefit ​ - ​ - ​ - - % Net loss ​ $ (23,794,026) ​ $ (15,706,671) ​ $ (8,087,355) (51) % ​ Revenues ​ The following represents our revenue by type for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the three months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 ​ Angel Guild ​ $ 90,720,582 ​ $ 46,803,621 ​ $ 43,916,961 ​ ​ ​ 94 % Theatrical ​ ​ 2,795,742 ​ ​ 32,579,632 ​ (29,783,890) ​ (91) % Content licensing ​ ​ 15,096,293 ​ ​ 6,565,573 ​ 8,530,720 ​ 130 % Merchandise ​ 2,442,633 ​ 1,126,830 ​ 1,315,803 ​ 117 % Other ​ ​ 650,680 ​ ​ 565,760 ​ ​ 84,920 ​ 15 % Total Revenue ​ $ 111,705,930 ​ $ 87,641,416 ​ $ 24,064,514 27 % ​ During the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, the increase in revenues was largely due to: 1) an increase in Angel Guild revenue by $43.9 million as a result of increased Angel Guild members from 1.31 million to 2.61 million from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 2026, 2) an increase in content licensing revenue, which increased by $8.5 million as a result of larger licensing deals being entered into from our 2026 theatrical releases, compared to smaller deals in the prior year period, and 3) an increase in merchandise revenue of $1.3 million largely due to DVD sales in Q2 2026. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in theatrical revenue of $29.8 million largely due to the release of two larger releases in Q2 2025, as compared to a single smaller release in Q2 2026. Cost of Revenues The following represents our cost of revenues by type for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the three months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 ​ Angel Guild ​ $ 11,327,496 ​ $ 9,509,049 ​ $ 1,818,447 ​ 19 % Theatrical ​ ​ 1,035,250 ​ ​ 2,233,525 ​ (1,198,275) ​ (54) % Royalties ​ 35,200,769 ​ 11,196,058 ​ 24,004,711 ​ 214 % Other ​ ​ 4,185,984 ​ ​ 4,347,751 ​ ​ (161,767) ​ (4) % Total Cost of Revenues ​ $ 51,749,499 $ 27,286,383 ​ $ 24,463,116 90 % ​ During the three months ended June 30, 2026, cost of revenues was $51.7 million compared to $27.3 million in the same quarter in the prior year. The increase in Angel Guild cost of revenues by $1.8 million was largely a result of increased memberships and the transaction fees of $3.5 million related to that growth, partially offset by a decrease in the amount of free movie tickets for premium Angel Guild members for Angel theatrical releases of $2.7 million. The increase in royalties of $24.0 million was a result of royalties earned by filmmakers from higher net revenue earned from the Angel Guild. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in theatrical cost of revenues of $1.2 million as a result of reduced spending on distributing theatrical releases in the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Selling and Marketing The following represents our selling and marketing expenses by type for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the three months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 ​ Angel Guild ​ $ 47,945,200 ​ $ 33,517,876 ​ $ 14,427,324 ​ 43 % Theatrical ​ ​ 10,899,152 ​ ​ 25,117,584 ​ (14,218,432) ​ (57) % Other ​ 2,297,428 ​ 2,874,883 ​ (577,455) ​ (20) % Total Selling and Marketing ​ $ 61,141,780 $ 61,510,343 ​ $ (368,563) (1) % ​ During the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, selling and marketing expenses remained relatively consistent. The increase in Angel Guild sales and marketing expenses of $14.4 million was a result of the promotion of the Angel Guild in an effort to increase memberships. This was partially offset by a decrease in Theatrical sales and marketing expenses of $14.2 million as a result of reduced spending on promoting theatrical releases in the three-months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to June 30, 2025. 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. Other Operating Expenses For the three months ended June 30, 2026, higher general and administrative costs of $2.6 million were primarily related to: 1) additional employee costs of $1.2 million during 2026 related to the support staff necessary to manage the continued and expected growth of the business, and 2) additional equity issuance costs of $1.4 million during 2026 due to an increase in options and RSUs granted to employees in the last 12 months and their related fair value on the grant date. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, research and development costs remained relatively consistent, with no large increases or decreases in personnel or software costs associated with research and development. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, the decrease in legal expense of $5.8 million was largely a result of legal costs in the prior year from the anticipated Merger with Merger Sub with no comparable transactions in the three months ended June 30, 2026. Other Income and Expense The increase in the loss on digital assets of $10.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 was a result of measuring our digital assets at fair value at the end of each reporting period per Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-08 and the value of bitcoin decreasing during the three months ended June 30, 2026 by a greater amount as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.

This increase was partially offset by a decrease in Theatrical revenue by $19.5 million, largely due to the release of King of Kings in Q2 2025, as compared to smaller releases in the current period . Cost of Revenues The following represents our cost of revenues by type for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 ​ Angel Guild ​ $ 24,893,379 ​ $ 16,050,145 ​ $ 8,843,234 ​ 55 % Theatrical ​ ​ 2,374,115 ​ ​ 3,291,246 ​ (917,131) ​ (28) % Royalties ​ 59,015,229 ​ 19,450,496 ​ 39,564,733 ​ 203 % Other ​ ​ 9,469,122 ​ ​ 7,974,700 ​ ​ 1,494,422 ​ 19 % Total cost of revenues ​ $ 95,751,845 $ 46,766,587 ​ $ 48,985,258 105 % ​ During the six months ended June 30, 2026, cost of revenues was $95.8 million compared to $46.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in Angel Guild cost of revenues by $8.8 million was largely a result of increased memberships and the transaction fees of $8.3 million related to that growth. The increase in royalties of $39.6 million was a result of royalties earned by filmmakers from higher net revenue earned from the Angel Guild. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in Theatrical cost of revenues of $0.9 million as a result of reduced spending on distributing theatrical releases in the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. Selling and Marketing The following represents our selling and marketing expenses by type for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ Change ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ ​ ​ 2025 ​ ​ ​ 2026 vs. 2025 ​ Angel Guild ​ $ 84,413,755 ​ $ 67,375,467 ​ $ 17,038,288 ​ 25 % Theatrical ​ ​ 28,471,025 ​ ​ 39,300,773 ​ (10,829,748) ​ (28) % Other ​ ​ 4,853,563 ​ ​ 5,359,417 ​ ​ (505,854) ​ (9) % Total selling and marketing ​ $ 117,738,343 $ 112,035,657 ​ $ 5,702,686 5 % ​ During the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, the increase in selling and marketing expenses was largely due to an increase in Angel Guild sales and marketing expenses of $17.0 million as a result of the promotion of the Angel Guild in an effort to increase memberships. This was partially offset by a decrease in theatrical sales and marketing expenses of $10.8 million as a result of reduced spending on promoting theatrical releases in the six-months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. 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. Other Operating Expenses For the six months ended June 30, 2026, higher general and administrative costs of $6.4 million were primarily related to: 1) additional employee costs of $2.2 million during 2026 related to the support staff necessary to manage the continued and expected growth of the business, 2) additional equity issuance costs of $2.3 million during 2026 due to an increase in options and RSUs granted to employees in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and their related fair value on the grant date, and 3) amortization expense of $1.5 million related to a new three-year first-look agreement with a filmmaker, which provides the Company with priority rights to review and bid on the filmmaker's future projects. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the increase in research and development costs of $1.2 million primarily related to additional employee costs during 2026 related to the support staff necessary to manage the continued and expected growth of the business. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, the decrease in legal expense of $4.3 million was largely a result of legal costs in the prior year from the anticipated Merger with Merger Sub, partially offset by the legal fees associated with the Homestead, Toothy Cow Productions, and Tuttle Twins Show pending acquisitions. Other Income and Expense The increase in the loss on digital assets of $12.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was a result of measuring our digital assets at fair value at the end of each reporting period per ASU No. 2023-08 and the value of bitcoin decreasing during the six months ended June 30, 2026 by a greater amount as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in interest expense of $4.8 million is related to a higher dollar amount of P&A and other notes entered into and outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, as can be seen on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and condensed consolidated balance sheets. Liquidity and Capital Resources Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ As of ​ Change ​ ​ June 30, 2026 ​ December 31, 2025 ​ 2026 vs. 2025 Cash and cash equivalents ​ ​ ​ $ 48,036,965 ​ ​ ​ $ 44,083,233 ​ ​ ​ $ 3,953,732 ​ ​ ​ 9 % Notes payable ​ 74,364,129 ​ 97,166,069 ​ (22,801,940) (23) % ​ Cash and cash equivalents increased by $4.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to cash provided by operating activities of $18.8 million, partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $13.8 million and cash used in financing activities of $1.1 million. ​ To date, we have funded a significant portion of our operations through private and public offerings of our common stock and raise of money through notes payable. As of June 30, 2026, we had cash on hand of approximately $48.0 million. Notes payable currently consists of 1) P&A notes in the amount of $12.0 million with amounts due based on timing of certain cash proceeds, but which amounts are expected to be paid within the next twelve months, 2) financing of a convertible note in the amount of $6.0 million, which will become due, if not converted into equity beforehand, by May 1, 2027, and 3) a financing facility in the amount of $100.0 million, of which $60.0 million is currently drawn as of the date of this report, with interest payable monthly and principal installments starting in November 2027 and a final maturity of October 1, 2030. Evaluation of Going Concern The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue to operate as a going concern within one year from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred a net loss of approximately $37.6 million and had cash provided by operating activities of approximately $18.8 million. We have an accumulated deficit of approximately $279.1 million as of June 30, 2026. Marketing expense was our largest expense for the period ended June 30, 2026 as our intent is to increase Angel Guild memberships and support our theatrical releases. We anticipate that as we continue to grow the business, we will incur operating losses and use cash in operating activities during 2026. We are working to increase revenues through the growth of Angel Guild memberships, our pipeline of theatrical releases during the second half of 2026 and additional streaming agreements. We have historically financed marketing activities for theatrical releases through two primary methods: 1) Regulation A offerings that are tailored to raise money for the print and advertising costs ("P&A") for specific theatrical releases and 2) P&A loan agreements with individual and institutional investors. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not raise any money from Regulation A offerings and received $10.0 million from P&A loans. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company raised $13.2 million from Regulation A offerings and received $84.0 million from P&A loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company paid $57.6 million for the repayments of P&A loans, including interest and paid $5.9 million as a redemption of shares for Regulation A investors, from the proceeds collected from the theatrical releases and other revenues earned. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company paid $43.5 million for the repayments of P&A loans, including interest and paid $15.8 million as a redemption of shares for Regulation A investors, from the proceeds collected from the theatrical releases and other revenues earned. ​ Additionally, the Company has raised capital through the sale of its Common Stock, generating $104.1 million of cash during the year ended December 31, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 , the Company issued Common Stock through a public offering for aggregate proceeds of $34.5 million and generated approximately $190.5 million in cash from Angel Guild paid memberships. As we continue to grow, we expect that our existing capital resources, including cash, accounts receivables, licensing receivables, recurring revenues from our membership base, the ability to draw on our existing debt facility, and the ability to sell our digital assets if necessary, will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements for at least the next twelve months. While there is no assurance of success, management remains committed to its plans to grow revenues and manage expenses. Discussion of Operating, Investing, Financing Cash Flows Operating Activities. Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Net Change Net cash and cash equivalents provided by (used in) operating activities ​ ​ ​ $ 18,827,445 ​ ​ ​ $ (20,352,061) ​ ​ ​ $ 39,179,506 ​ Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $18.8 million compared to cash flows used in operating activities of $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $39.2 million. This increase was primarily attributable to 1) growth in net Angel Guild cash received, which is due to increased Guild membership, and 2) lower marketing spend as a percentage of revenue. The increase in cash is also a result of the collection of theatrical receipts related to David in the first quarter of 2026. Investing Activities. Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Net Change Purchases of property and equipment ​ ​ ​ $ (189,070) ​ ​ ​ $ (118,942) ​ ​ ​ $ (70,128) Issuance of notes receivable ​ (14,684) ​ (974,176) ​ 959,492 Collections of notes receivable ​ 143,578 ​ 440,643 ​ (297,065) Advances to acquisition target ​ (8,193,364) ​ - ​ (8,193,364) Sale of digital assets ​ ​ - ​ ​ 99,118 ​ ​ (99,118) Additions to internal-use software ​ ​ (5,478,477) ​ ​ (4,346,719) ​ ​ (1,131,758) Purchase of content ​ ​ (207,499) ​ ​ (4,274,150) ​ ​ 4,066,651 Investments in affiliates ​ - ​ (2,982,032) ​ 2,982,032 Return on investments in affiliates ​ ​ 137,170 ​ ​ - ​ ​ 137,170 Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities ​ $ (13,802,346) ​ $ (12,156,258) ​ $ (1,646,088) ​ Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $13.8 million compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $12.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase of cash flows used was largely due to the advances to certain acquisition targets for $8.2 million, partially offset by the decrease of the purchase of content of $4.1 million and the decrease of investment in affiliates of $3.0 million. Financing Activities. Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the six months ended June 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2026 ​ 2025 ​ Net Change Repayment of notes payable ​ ​ ​ $ (57,630,657) ​ ​ ​ $ (24,338,861) ​ ​ ​ $ (33,291,796) Repayment of loan guarantee ​ ​ - ​ ​ (6,000,000) ​ ​ 6,000,000 Receipt of notes payable ​ 30,000,000 ​ 48,891,000 ​ (18,891,000) Repayment of accrued settlement costs ​ ​ - ​ ​ (136,660) ​ ​ 136,660 Exercise of stock options ​ 1,293,476 ​ 190,733 ​ 1,102,743 Issuance of common stock ​ 34,534,500 ​ 38,503,670 ​ (3,969,170) Contribution of equity in noncontrolling interests ​ ​ - ​ ​ 8,731,422 ​ ​ (8,731,422) Redemption of equity in noncontrolling interests ​ ​ (5,883,724) ​ (11,750,000) ​ 5,866,276 Fees related to issuance of common stock and minority interest ​ ​ (2,024,388) ​ ​ (398,660) ​ ​ (1,625,728) Repurchase of common stock ​ ​ (1,160,574) ​ ​ (132,940) ​ ​ (1,027,634) Debt financing fees ​ (200,000) ​ (263,532) ​ 63,532 Net cash and cash equivalents provided by (used in) financing activities ​ $ (1,071,367) ​ $ 53,296,172 ​ $ (54,367,539) ​ Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $1.1 million compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $53.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we raised $30.0 million in notes payable and $34.5 million through issuance of Common Stock in a public offering. This was partially offset by the repayment of $57.6 million for P&A related notes and a $5.9 million redemption paid for equity in noncontrolling interests. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we raised $38.5 million with issuance of our common stock, $8.7 million in equity from noncontrolling interests, and $48.9 million in notes payable. These were partially offset by the repayment of $25.5 million for P&A related notes, a $11.8 million redemption paid for equity in noncontrolling interests and a $6.0 million payment related to a loan guarantee. Trends and Key Factors Affecting Our Performance Angel Guild We launched the Angel Guild in the second quarter of 2023. Since that time the Angel Guild grew to approximately 2.00 million Angel Guild members as of December 31, 2025, accounting for 65.2% of our total revenue in 2025. The Angel Guild grew to approximately 2.61 million Angel Guild members as of June 30, 2026, accounting for 76.7% of our total revenue in 2026. As of June 30, 2026, filmmakers have earned $289.6 million in cumulative royalties. We attribute the Angel Guild growth to many factors including, but not limited to, new and exclusive content being added regularly to the Angel Guild and marketing optimization and upselling to the Angel App user base. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the trailing twelve months average revenue per member was $13.63 per month. Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. The SEC has defined a company's critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results of operations, and which require a company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed below. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Long-lived Assets Intangible assets with finite lives and property, plant and equipment are amortized or depreciated over their estimated useful life on a straight-line basis. We monitor conditions related to these assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization or depreciation period. We test these assets for potential impairment whenever our management concludes events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The original estimate of an asset's useful life and the impact of an event or circumstance on either an asset's useful life or carrying value involve significant judgment regarding estimates of the future cash flows associated with each asset. Capitalized internal-use software costs are primarily comprised of direct labor and technology related expenses. Internal-use software includes software utilized for cloud-based solutions as well as software for internal systems and tools. Costs are capitalized once the project is defined, funding is committed, and it is confirmed the software will be used for its intended use. Capitalization of these costs concludes once the project is complete and the software is ready for its intended purpose. Post-configuration training and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Income Taxes We account for income taxes under the liability method, whereby deferred tax asset or liability account balances are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using current tax laws and rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets when we expect the amount of tax benefit to be realized is less than the carrying value of the deferred tax asset. Accounting for income taxes involves uncertainty and judgment on how to interpret and apply tax laws and regulations within our annual tax filings. Such uncertainties from time to time may result in a tax position that may be challenged and overturned by a tax authority in the future which could result in additional tax liability, interest charges and possibly penalties. Stock-Based Compensation We account for stock-based compensation by measuring and recognizing as compensation expense the fair value of all share-based payment awards made to employees based on estimated grant date fair values. The determination of fair value involves a number of significant estimates. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the Monte Carlo pricing model to estimate the value of employee stock options which require a number of assumptions to determine the model inputs. These include the expected volatility of our stock and employee exercise behavior, which are based on historical data as well as expectations of future developments over the term of the option. As stock-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Management's estimate of forfeitures is based on historical experience but actual forfeitures could differ materially as a result of voluntary employee actions and involuntary actions which would result in significant change in our stock-based compensation expense amounts in the future. The fair value of the Common Stock underlying the employee stock options is estimated using closing market price. Other Estimates See "Note 1" to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for further discussion. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of June 30, 2026, our off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of guarantees of repayment of third-party loans made to independent film production companies that are unconsolidated variable interest entities in which we hold a variable interest but are not the primary beneficiary. Our maximum potential undiscounted future payments under these guarantees were $6.5 million, against which we have recorded a guarantee liability of $0.3 million, and we have assessed the payment risk as low. We had no other off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2026 that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors. See Note 1, Description of Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , and Note 5, Commitments and Contingencies , to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
