OnlyFans, the subscription-based platform notorious for hosting explicit content, is reportedly on the cusp of selling a significant stake to a prominent San Francisco investment firm. In a deal that values the company at roughly half its previous sale valuation, OnlyFans would be surrendering 60% of its equity to Architect Capital.
According to sources close to the matter, the proposed transaction entails $3.5 billion in equity and $2 billion in debt, totaling a staggering $5.5 billion in value. While no official timeline has been set for the deal's completion, it remains unclear when OnlyFans' owner will finalize this new partnership.
A comparable sale attempt from last year, which saw OnlyFans valued at an eye-watering $8 billion, ultimately fell through. Notwithstanding, the platform is still expanding and demonstrated a modest nine percent increase in gross revenue for its fiscal 2024 period, yielding over $7.2 billion.
The negotiations between OnlyFans' owner, Leonid Radvinsky, and Architect Capital have taken place within an exclusive framework, where other potential buyers are barred from engaging with the platform's management for a defined duration.

. its just a site for adults to pay for...you know, adult content 
. dont get me wrong, its not like im against people makin money or anythin', but 5.5 billion? that's wild 
. and 60% of the equity to some san francisco firm? thats a lot of control 
. maybe they can help onlyfans expand and grow, idk...but for now, im just gonna keep scrollin through my feeds, not really investin too much emotional energy into this whole thing 
Like, I know OnlyFans is all about that explicit content, but $5.5 billion is just wild 
. And 60% of its equity to Architect Capital? That's like, a huge chunk 
. I'm kinda curious to see how this deal goes down, especially after the last attempt at sale fell through 
. The platform does seem to be expanding and growing, so maybe this is the push it needed 
. Still, I wonder if Leonid Radvinsky's gonna get a sweet exit deal or not 
Whoa, onlyfans is getting sold 
! I remember when they were trying to sell last year and it didn't work out 
. But now it seems like architect capital is willing to take the risk 
. They got 60% of equity, that's a big deal 
! Hopefully, this new partnership will bring in some fresh ideas and help them stay relevant 
. Anyway, back to OnlyFans... yeah, it's crazy how much money they're getting into this deal. Maybe they can finally get some better security measures for all the explicit content 
! I mean, they're still raking in those millions of dollars 
. Fingers crossed they make the most of this new partnership and keep on growing 
!
architect capital is taking a huge risk investing $5.5 billion in onlyfans, but hey at least they're getting some juicy returns 
and what changes come to onlyfans now that architect capital is at the helm 
This is crazy! I mean, who would've thought that OnlyFans would be selling half its equity to some investment firm? 
Either way, 9% increase in gross revenue is no joke! $7.2 billion is a lot of dough 
. What do you guys think?
. if architect capital wants a piece of the action, they should at least be willing to work with the existing team to make sure the platform stays true to its users.
. either way, i'm keeping an eye on it 
. And hey, 60% equity is not the worst thing in the world - it means they'll have plenty of room to grow and innovate on their own terms 
.
It'll be interesting to see how this partnership unfolds and whether it will ultimately benefit both parties 
and it's literally so not worth it financially they barely make ends meet let alone get rich off of it lol now that architects capital is getting in the mix, i wonder if that'll change things for creators... 60% stake tho, yeah that's a lot of ownership... hope its good for them
.
. But hey, $5.5 billion is a ton of money
