Exinity UK Reports 23% Revenue Growth

Meanwhile, Exinity UK, a brand controlled by Andrey Dashin, reported revenue of over £2.07 million in 2023, a 23 percent increase from the previous year, according to its Companies House filing, as reported by Finance Magnates. Despite the revenue rise, profit dropped to £213,462 from £319,251 the previous year.

The company, licensed by the Financial Conduct Authority, saw no tax liability, making pre-tax and net profits identical. The profit decline was due to the absence of gains from investment disposals, which brought in £258,111 in 2022. Additionally, administrative expenses increased to over £1.8 million from £1.6 million. Exinity UK also had a rising interest expense, which was £8,699 in 2023, up from £3,933 the previous year.
