SEEEN plc Reports 48% Revenue Growth and Cash Flow Breakeven in 2024

SEEEN’s 2024 results: big top-line growth and a cash flow inflection

SEEEN plc has released audited results for the year to 31 December 2024 alongside an unaudited 1H 2025 trading update. The headline: revenue up 48% to $3.04 million and monthly operating cash flow breakeven achieved in December 2024. The momentum has continued into 2025 with 1H revenues of $2.1 million, more than 80% ahead of the same period last year, while maintaining monthly operating cash flow breakeven.

The Accounts are due to be posted on the company’s site at seeen.com. With the Accounts published, the temporary suspension of trading on AIM is expected to be lifted at 07:30, 11 September 2025.

Key numbers investors should know

Metric	FY 2024	FY 2023 (restated)	1H 2025 (unaudited)
Revenue	$3.04 million	$2.05 million	$2.1 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$(0.5) million	$(0.6) million	~$0.1 million
Gross margin	21.2%	23.4%	Not disclosed
Cash at period end	$1.0 million	$1.1 million	~$1.4 million
Annualised revenue run rate	$5.0 million (Dec-24)	Not applicable	~$5.8 million (Jun-25)

Adjusted EBITDA is SEEEN’s definition of earnings before depreciation and amortisation, adding back share-based payments and non-core costs.

What powered growth: CSP revival and AI video products

SEEEN operates two synergistic lines: (1) video moments AI technology and (2) a YouTube Creator Service Partner (CSP) business. CSP is essentially a YouTube-focused service where SEEEN aggregates and optimises channels, shares in net ad revenue and pays creators; technology is sold as software and managed services that make video “shoppable” and easier to monetise.

• Technology revenue (recurring) rose 33% to approximately $0.22 million.
• CSP revenue increased 55% to approximately $2.8 million, helped by a new reseller agreement and stronger client relationships.
• Customer footprint at year-end: 5 strategic customers, 48 vertical-market customers and 10 e-commerce-led customers.

There’s a notable mix effect here. The CSP carries a slightly lower gross margin than pure technology licensing, which explains the gross margin move to 21.2% from 23.4% despite faster growth.

2025 acceleration: larger contract and higher run-rate

Management says the momentum has “accelerated” in 1H 2025: revenue exceeded $2.1 million, adjusted EBITDA turned to roughly $0.1 million, and monthly operating cash flow breakeven has been maintained. Importantly, SEEEN signed what could be its largest ever deal during the half – a contract to manage a publisher’s video and music assets on YouTube with a projected value of up to $3.5 million in annualised revenue, subject to milestones.

The company quotes an annualised revenue run rate of approximately $5.8 million at June 2025. Run rate is not guidance; it annualises the latest month’s trading – and management explicitly notes YouTube income can be volatile – but it is a useful indicator of trajectory.

Profitability: breakeven reached, but still a statutory loss

Operationally, the inflection point is clear. SEEEN reached monthly operating cash flow breakeven in December 2024 and held it through 1H 2025. However, the audited FY 2024 statutory loss after tax was $2.43 million, reflecting $1.02 million of amortisation of intangibles and $1.91 million of other administrative costs. Non-core costs were approximately $0.7 million in the period.

In short: the cost base is being leveraged better as revenue scales, but mix and amortisation still weigh on reported profit. Sustaining the positive adjusted EBITDA seen in 1H 2025 will be key.

Balance sheet, funding and potential dilution

• Year-end cash was $1.0 million; unaudited cash at 1H 2025 was approximately $1.4 million.
• Equity fundraising in 2024: £0.8 million to accelerate AI-infused training/education products.
• Further raises in 1H 2025: warrants exercised early and new shares subscribed, raising approximately £0.7 million; an additional £78,500 was raised in January 2025.
• Convertible loan notes: £325,000 issued in December 2024 to Gresham House (12% coupon, conversion price £0.03). There is also a facility for a further £487,500 of conditional notes at £0.045 conversion price, subject to conditions. The liability component at year end was $178,090 with an equity reserve of $198,337.

Opinion: the fundraises and CLN provide working capital and signal investor support, but they carry potential dilution if converted. Given the firm is at a scaling stage, that trade-off is not unusual on AIM; it puts the emphasis on execution to grow into the larger share count.

Restatements: tidy-up with no cash impact

Following a review with new auditors, SEEEN restated certain 2023 and 2022 items. The changes mainly relate to classifying some 2019 options as a liability rather than equity, correcting where certain foreign exchange movements were recorded, and adjusting over-capitalised development costs.

• Net book value reduced by approximately $0.1 million and retained earnings increased by approximately $0.5 million as part of the restatements.
• Other adjustments include around $0.2 million of capitalisation costs and approximately $0.1 million of share-based payment allocation to subsidiaries.
• None of these adjustments affected cash.

Crucially for trading, publication of the audited Accounts means the temporary AIM suspension is expected to be lifted this morning.

Strategic direction: short-form, shoppable and training videos

SEEEN’s technology thesis is about “Key Video Moments” – the AI-guided segments of a video most likely to trigger action. The group rolled out an Interactive Reels Gallery in 2024 and is building ShortsCut for YouTube Shorts/Instagram Reels/TikTok. In training, work with American Leak Detection points to a practical use case: serving technicians short video refreshers in the field to improve job completion rates. Management sees strong demand in education and corporate training and has invested proceeds to take these products to market in 2025.

Balanced view: what’s good and what to watch

Positives

• 48% revenue growth in 2024 and >80% in 1H 2025 shows the flywheel is turning.
• Monthly operating cash flow breakeven reached and maintained.
• $3.5 million potential annualised contract validates the CSP platform and ups the scale.
• Early warrant exercises and continued funding support strengthen liquidity.

Watch-outs

• Reliance on YouTube economics: terms or yield changes could hit CSP revenue and margins.
• Gross margin dipped to 21.2% due to mix; sustained margin expansion likely needs higher tech-license penetration.
• Statutory losses persist; amortisation and non-core costs need to trend down versus revenue.
• Convertible notes and warrants introduce potential dilution if conversion conditions are met.

Why this matters for shareholders

This update marks a genuine operational turning point for SEEEN. The company is moving from stabilisation to scale, underpinned by a stronger customer roster and a clear product-market fit across short-form, shoppable and training video. If management converts the pipeline, keeps CSP yield improving, and grows higher-margin technology revenues, today’s run-rate could translate into a more durable P&L.

The flip side is execution risk and exposure to YouTube. Investors should track: ongoing monthly cash flow breakeven, growth in technology ARR, contribution of the $3.5 million contract, and any updates on the planned appointment of a new CFO.

AGM and practical details

• AGM: 10:00 a.m. on 28 October 2025 at Hones Yard, 1 Waverley Lane, Farnham, Surrey GU9 8BB.
• Accounts and Notice of AGM: expected shortly on seeen.com.

Bottom line

On the numbers disclosed, SEEEN has momentum, better cash discipline and a larger commercial opportunity lining up in 2025. The shares have endured a bumpy road, but with trading restored to AIM and a stronger first-half, the next leg is all about consistent delivery and nudging the mix toward higher-margin tech revenue. If they do that, the valuation debate can start to catch up with the operating progress.
