Kartoon Channel! Engagement Doubles Year-Over-Year

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., October 28, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Kartoon Studios, a global entertainment company creating, producing, distributing, and licensing children's and family content, announced strong growth across its streaming platforms, Kartoon Channel! and Ameba, with total hours watched on its subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) platforms more than doubling year-over-year through the first three quarters of 2026. The performance builds on an acceleration in viewing that began in the fourth quarter of 2025 and has continued through the first three quarters of 2026, demonstrating sustained audience engagement rather than a short-term viewing spike.

The strength of the platforms is particularly notable as Kartoon Channel! and Ameba enter Q4, historically one of the most active periods for children's and family entertainment. Last year's Halloween programming generated an increase in viewing, and Kartoon Channel! enters the 2026 Halloween and holiday season from a substantially higher level of viewing. With an expanded slate of seasonal programming planned across the platform, the Company expects the fourth quarter to provide additional opportunities to build viewing momentum and deepen engagement with its growing number of subscribers.

The growth in SVOD engagement represents another step in Kartoon Studios' strategy to scale its owned distribution ecosystem across SVOD, AVOD, FAST and other digital platforms. Through Toon Media Networks, the Company continues to expand the reach and monetization potential of its content portfolio while using audience consumption data to guide programming, content acquisition and platform strategy.

Kartoon Channel! and Ameba enter the fourth quarter with an expanded lineup of recognizable family entertainment properties and strategic content partners. The additions are expected to further strengthen the platform's seasonal programming strategy and provide audiences with a broader range of content during the Halloween and holiday viewing period.
