The two companies acquired exactly 45,964,331 Gentoo shares each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As mentioned above, the share purchases came about due to a debt refinancing undertaken by Gentoo. The <strong>Nasdaq Stockholm<\/strong>-listed company needed to raise \u20ac50m (approximately $58m) to refinance bonds amounting to \u20ac91.5m (approximately $106m) from December 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company opted to raise this \u20ac50m (approximately $58m) by issuing new shares. The two Juroszek affiliates businesses decided to underwrite these new shares to the tune of SEK 6.1633 (approximately $0.62) per share, raising the \u20ac50m (approximately $58m) Gentoo needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Juroszeks are no strangers to Gentoo Media. The family has been involved in the business for some time, dating back to its days as <strong>Gaming Innovation Group (GiG)<\/strong>, a technology firm split between an affiliate and a B2B iGaming solutions business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They became the biggest individual investors in GiG back in 2023 by increasing their stake in the company to 11.08%. The family has stuck with GiG over the years, backing the company during its split into two separate businesses in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gentoo Media came into being when GiG opted to divest its affiliate and media business, which subsequently took on its new moniker. The company\u2019s betting-focused investment fund, <strong>BetPlay Capital<\/strong>, has been a principal financial backer to Gentoo since the latter\u2019s foundation two years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many in the iGaming space, however, and particularly those in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), the Juroszeks will be best known for their former ownership of <strong>STS Holdings <\/strong>\u2014 the market leading betting company in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Juroszek family sold its 70% stake in STS to Entain in 2023, a move which formed the foundation of <strong>Entain CEE <\/strong>alongside Croatia-focused business <strong>SuperSport<\/strong>. Mateusz Juroszek subsequently joined Entain CEE\u2019s board of directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Entain CEE would not be a long-lasting enterprise, as Entain revealed earlier this year that it is winding down the business and selling its stakes in the joint venture to its partner, <strong>EMMA Capital.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Juroszek family\u2019s business interests in iGaming extend way beyond Gentoo, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>BetPlay Capital\u2019s <\/strong>portfolio includes stakes in affiliate business <strong>Better Collective<\/strong>, iGaming tech firm <strong>Interactive Games<\/strong>, gaming studio giant <strong>Evolution<\/strong>, and the aforementioned Entain, among other prominent businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Juroszek business family has upped its shareholding in Gentoo Media via a \u20ac50m debt refinancing.
