“These acquisitions represent strategic investments in Angel’s long-term growth,” said Neal Harmon, Co-Founder and CEO of Angel. “Each franchise reflects the values that unite the Angel Guild and ranks among the most watched on our platform. By fully integrating them into Angel, we strengthen our competitive position and advance our mission to deliver values-driven storytelling at scale.”

Tuttle Twins

A family-focused animated series that explores complex ideas – such as freedom and responsibility – through adventure, humor, and heart, Tuttle Twins is the most-watched television series on the Angel platform. Now in its fourth season, it has become a cornerstone of Angel’s family programming.

Performance Highlights (Dec 2024–Sept 2025)

124 million minutes watched

18.2-minute average viewing session

Homestead

Homestead is a premium, post-apocalyptic thriller that has become one of Angel’s most powerful franchises. The film, starring Neal McDonough, and season one of the television series, draw audiences into a fractured America struggling to survive after a nuclear blast, delivering suspense within a deeply human story of faith, family, and resilience.

Performance Highlights (Dec 2024–Sept 2025)

81 million minutes watched

Nearly 1 in 8 minutes watched on the platform is tied to Homestead

253 thousand new Guild members acquired tied to Homestead

The Wingfeather Saga

Based on Andrew Peterson’s bestselling books with more than 1.8 million copies sold, The Wingfeather Saga is a hand-painted, 3D animated fantasy series that brings adventure, virtue, and moral imagination to life. It remains one of the most successful crowdfunded family animated series ever produced.

Performance Highlights (Dec 2024–Sept 2025)

40.3 million total minutes watched

20.6-minute average viewing session

The transactions were funded through a combination of cash and stock, for a total aggregate purchase consideration of about $89 million, consistent with Angel’s disciplined approach to balancing creative expansion with shareholder value creation.

These three acquisitions strengthen Angel’s control of its most successful original IP and reinforce its vertically integrated, community-driven model. By aligning ownership with audience validation, Angel is expanding the creative and economic engine that powers the Angel Guild.
