GFINITY PLC is a public limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 08232509, incorporated on 28 September 2012. The company was first registered as ESPORTSLIVE LIMITED, was renamed GFINITY LIMITED in March 2013, and adopted its current name, GFINITY PLC, in December 2014. Companies House records its status as active, with a registered office at 128 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX.

Gfinity plc was originally built as an esports business, producing tournaments, broadcast and production services for games publishers, sports rights holders and brands. In more recent years the company has moved away from esports toward digital media and artificial intelligence. Its current portfolio includes Gfinity Digital Media, a network of gaming and lifestyle websites such as gfinityesports.com, mtgrocks.com and stockinformer.com read by over two million users a month; Connected IQ, a contextual video-advertising technology; and Yentra.ai, an AI consulting and engineering venture launched in 2026 in which Gfinity plc holds a 51 percent interest, with the remaining 49 percent held by the venture’s management team.

Gfinity plc’s ordinary shares trade on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange under the ticker GFIN, with approximately 5.94 billion shares in issue and a market capitalisation of around 2.1 million pounds as of July 2026. For the six months ended 31 December 2025, the company reported revenue of 421,400 pounds, up 8.0 percent year on year, and a net loss of 233,900 pounds, a 14 percent narrowing of losses compared with the prior-year period.

Active registration status at Companies House confirms GFINITY PLC’s legal standing but does not by itself indicate whether its current operations are commercially successful or financially stable.

Shareholders

Shareholders of GFINITY PLC

Shareholder and beneficial-ownership information for GFINITY PLC is drawn from the Companies House Persons with Significant Control (PSC) register. The company’s current PSC statement, filed 26 August 2024, records that there is no registrable person or registrable relevant legal entity holding significant control. This means no individual or entity is currently reported to Companies House as holding more than 25 percent of shares or voting rights, or otherwise exercising significant control under the UK PSC regime.

One historical PSC entry is on record. Ms Tin Yu Lee, notified 21 July 2016 and ceased 18 May 2021, was reported to hold between 25 percent and 50 percent of both shares and voting rights in the company.

As an AIM-listed public company with approximately 5.94 billion ordinary shares in issue, GFINITY PLC’s wider shareholder register, including institutional and retail holders below the PSC control threshold, is not published through Companies House and is not available from this source.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

No current ultimate beneficial owner can be reliably identified. The Companies House PSC register shows no individual or entity currently meeting the significant-control threshold, as confirmed by the statement filed 26 August 2024.

Data availability

Availability: Major shareholders only, and historical. Companies House requires disclosure only of persons exceeding the statutory PSC control threshold, so the absence of a current PSC record does not indicate the company has no shareholders; it indicates only that none currently exceeds that threshold.

Group Structure

Group structure of GFINITY PLC

GFINITY PLC is a publicly listed company with verified direct subsidiaries in the United States and the United Kingdom. In July 2017, Gfinity plc acquired the entire issued share capital of CEVO, Inc., a US esports technology and services provider, for consideration of up to 2.7 million US dollars in cash and shares, making CEVO, Inc. a wholly owned direct subsidiary at the time of completion.

In 2026, Gfinity plc launched Yentra.ai Limited, a UK-registered AI consulting and engineering venture, in which Gfinity plc holds a 51 percent interest; the remaining 49 percent is held by the venture’s own management team. Yentra.ai Limited is therefore a verified majority-owned direct subsidiary rather than a wholly owned one.

No verified immediate or ultimate parent company of GFINITY PLC has been identified. The Companies House Persons with Significant Control register records no current registrable controlling person or entity in relation to GFINITY PLC.
