Mallya's plea challenging confiscation of properties to be heard on Friday

• OnlyFans owner Leonid Radvinsky received dividends worth more than £513m (over $700m) before his death in March at the age of 43.
• The company made $714m in profit before tax last year, a rise of 5 per cent from 2024, despite employing only 47 people.
• OnlyFans has paid over $30 billion to creators since launch, according to chief executive Keily Blair.

The man behind OnlyFans was paid an extraordinary sum in dividends in the months leading up to his death from cancer earlier this year, newly published company accounts show. Fenix International Ltd, the British company that owns the streaming platform, paid its late owner Leonid Radvinsky more than £513m (around $700m) before he died in March.

According to Fenix International's annual report, the company made $714m in profit before tax last year, up 5 per cent from 2024. What makes the figure especially striking is the size of the company behind it. OnlyFans employs just 47 people, a staggeringly small workforce for a business generating that kind of profit. For comparison, Marks and Spencer, which employs more than 65,000 people, made £671m in profit last year, roughly in the same ballpark as OnlyFans despite a workforce thousands of times larger.
