The Sidemen have no verified combined net worth. Forbes estimated member KSI at $23.9 million in 2023, according to CNN, and no outlet has published a Forbes or filed-accounts figure for the group. The seven-member YouTube collective formed in 2013, runs its business through Sidemen Entertainment Limited, and lost KSI on May 31, 2026. This page separates what is sourced from what aggregators estimate.
What is the Sidemen's net worth?
No source has published a verified net worth for the Sidemen as a group. The only Forbes figure tied to a member is KSI at $23.9 million in 2023, which CNN reported when KSI left the group. That figure is three years old and predates his later business moves.
Aggregator sites publish larger numbers without a method. Unifresher lists member estimates from £5 million to £100 million and a combined £150 million to £200 million, and says KSI's estimate rests on a reported 20 percent stake in Prime Hydration. Treat those figures as unverified claims.

| KSI net worth (2026) | About £75 million | Capital XTRA, no method given |
| Combined member net worth | £150 million to £200 million | Unifresher, no method given |

Where can the Sidemen's real finances be checked?
The Sidemen's business finances can be checked at Companies House, where Sidemen Entertainment Limited is registered as company number 12349593. The company was incorporated on December 5, 2019, and its last filed accounts were made up to June 30, 2024.
Everything-PR has not reviewed those filings for this page, so it publishes no revenue or profit figure. Third-party sites quote revenue and valuation numbers for the company, but those are modeled estimates, not accounts. Journalists and researchers should pull the filed accounts before repeating any number.
Who are the Sidemen and who left?
The Sidemen are a British YouTube collective formed in 2013 from KSI, Miniminter, Zerkaa, TBJZL, Behzinga, Vikkstar123 and W2S. KSI announced on May 31, 2026 in a video on his own channel that he would no longer appear in Sidemen videos.
CNN reported that KSI called it the hardest video he had ever made, and that the remaining members said the news came as a surprise to them. KSI said the decision was his own and cited burnout, according to ComingSoon's account of the video. The Sidemen's channel reach was reported as more than 100 million subscribers across platforms and 22 million on the main YouTube channel by Televisual in January 2026.
What businesses do the Sidemen run?
The Sidemen run content, television production, consumer products and live events through the Sidemen Entertainment group. The documented lines are the Netflix series Inside, the Sidemen Productions company launched in January 2026, XIX Vodka launched in 2022, and Best Cereal launched in March 2024 with the oat producer Mornflake.
The Drop reported on January 30, 2026 that Sidemen Productions is self-funded by the Sidemen and led by CEO Victor Bengtsson, with Adam Cohen as head of the unit. The Drop also reported that Inside UK reached number one on Netflix UK and was renewed for a third season. Sidemen clothing, the Sides restaurant brand and the charity football matches also exist, but this page publishes no revenue figure for them because none could be traced to a primary source.
Who runs Sidemen Entertainment?
Victor Bengtsson runs Sidemen Entertainment as chief executive. Sources describe the same executive under different titles: The Drop and Brand Innovators call him CEO, while Televisual called him managing director in January 2026.
Earlier listings place Bengtsson as managing director of the management company Arcade Media, running the Sidemen's day-to-day operation in 2024, after roles at Volvo Cars and Fnatic. No source reviewed here says whether he was the first outside executive to run the business.
What does the KSI exit mean for the group?
KSI's exit removes the group's most prominent member from future Sidemen videos. The exit does not by itself show how his ownership in the business changed, because no source reviewed here states whether he kept his shares in the company.
For communications teams, the exit is a test of whether a group brand outlasts its biggest name. The group has built owned properties that do not depend on one face: a Netflix franchise, a production company, and consumer brands.
