Looking ahead, says the e-sports and gaming sectors continue to grow, forming part of a systematic change in the media industry towards digital, streamed and gaming-related content.

It records GBP107,000 in revenue in the year to June, up from GBP65,000 the year before. However, it swings to a pretax loss of GBP1.1 million from a profit of GBP25,000. This is mostly due to other administrative expenses of GBP948,000.
