Hum Network, a publicly owned company headquartered in Pakistan, operates in broadcast television and radio. Founded in 2004, it employs approximately 260 individuals and reported $92.0M in revenue as of 2025, operating as a tier 1 media tech buyer. The company functions as a media conglomerate, operating a portfolio of satellite television channels. These include its general entertainment brand, HUM TV, alongside specialized outlets like HUM News, HUM Masala (a dedicated 24-hour food channel), and HUM Sitaray. The network broadcasts Urdu dramas and soap operas to a global audience across over 170 countries. Beyond television, Hum Network expands its media footprint through digital platforms and publications such as GLAM and Masala magazines, and hosts industry events like the HUM Awards.
On March 6, 2026, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) significantly broadened its probe into an alleged large-scale money laundering network linked to Pakistan’s media sector, summoning the company secretary of Hum Network and scrutinizing financial records of several prominent institutions. Investigators indicated this alleged network might represent less than five percent of a broader illegal financial network reportedly run by media owners. Previously, on November 3, 2025, Hum Network Ltd (PSX: HUMNL) ended fiscal year 2025 with a profit but experienced thinner margins and a notably weaker fourth quarter. Management attributed this downturn primarily to an advertising freeze stemming from boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) campaigns targeting multinational consumer brands, rather than India’s geo-blocking of Pakistani channels on YouTube.
