Digital media company KOMI Group has reported a record-breaking first half of the year with revenue reaching £7.4 million, up 94% from the same period ending June 2024. The company said that the rapid growth “has been driven by a combination of strong organic growth and a focused acquisition strategy targeting social-first media brands”.
Over the past year, KOMI has focused heavily on diversifying its platform strategy, reducing its reliance on Facebook and making a significant investment in YouTube, now the fastest fastest-growing part of its operation. This strategic pivot has enabled the Group to unlock new commercial opportunities while expanding its reach across more diverse audience segments.
Founded in 2016, KOMI Group operates across three core areas that work together to fuel its growth: KOMI Publishing, KOMI Talent and KOMI Insights. The company has acquired five media brands over the past three years, a move that it said “has contributed significantly to both scale and reach: monthly views have jumped to 5 billion, up from 3 billion in June 2024, and KOMI’s global audience has grown to over 150 million.”
KOMI is currently investing in AI capabilities to evolve the platform. Looking ahead to the second half of 2025, the company said it will continue to invest in the US market through further acquisitions and organic expansion. It will also keep scaling its use of KOMI Insights as creators seek out data-led partners who can help them build profitable businesses.
Sam Lenehan, CEO of KOMI Group, said: “KOMI has continued to deliver strong, profitable growth, and the first half of 2025 has been our best yet. We have spent the last 3 years focused on building our KOMI Insights capability, which has allowed us to diversify our revenue streams and make smart acquisitions. Our people continue to remain our priority and are at the core of our success. I truly believe that the culture the team at KOMI have collectively created will be the foundation of even bigger success as we look to the future.”
