Profitable Celtic accounts last year despite revenue dip

1143

Celtic released their financial results for the year to 30 June 2014 this afternoon.  The club remained profitable to the tune of £11.17m (2013: £9.74m) despite a 14$ drop in revenue to £64.74m.  The net cash position at the end of the year was hardly changed from the previous year at £3.83m.

Football and stadium revenue was down £4.4m, which correlates almost exactly to the £100 reduction in season ticket process for around 40,000 seats, but the biggest hit was to Multimedia and Commercial Activities, which were down £5.21m.  The bulk of this fall will be explained by finishing fourth in the Champions League group stage, instead of processing to the knock out stage, as we did in season 2012-13.

Celtic opened a new borrowing facility with the Co-op Bank two weeks ago to replace their existing facilities.  The club have a £6m overdraft (at base plus 1%) and £14.4m of long-term loans.

This high watermark will not be reached this season as revenue will struggle to reach £55m but it’s clear the club can support the current cost structure without needing to pair back.  The project for now is to get revenue back over £70 next season, and for that we’ll need to be better prepared come Champions League qualification time.

    I have every respect for those holding differnt views from mine. And come friday if is a NO VOTE then so be it.

     

     

    If I recall correctly over a year ago, Better Together was making noises about a second referendum should things go against it.

     

     

     

     

    What I will not wear is people like Murphy trying to distance himself from people that in this particular issue he is clearly in bed with.

    How sad is it that some amongst us on a Celtic site think that the way to react to the death of a man who was a life-long bigot is to prove that WE are also bigots ?

     

     

    Ian Paisley is dead.

     

     

    May he rest in peace.

    Good reply! My father is of the same opinion.

     

     

    Me, I like to think things have changed for the better where that’s concerned. If there are still anti-Catholic elements within Scottish Nationalism, I say let’s challenge them head on. We will defeat them. This is our time.

     

     

    There is no possibility of reasoning with the OO. They would rather burn our homes down.

     

     

    Hail Hail

    Earlier I searched for the words to convey this sentiment and couldn’t find them. You have summed up my thoughts very eloquently, sir.

    I know from previous posts that you are very concerned about religious discrimination/ sectarianism taking root in an independent Scotland. What do you think of this? There is an Orange Lodge inside the House of Commons made up of members who are serving MPs.

    Members of the UK Parliament use Parliament`s premises to hold the meetings and rituals of a vehemently anti-Catholic organisation.

     

     

    And no one objects to this.

     

     

    Better Together? When such a divisive hate-filled organisation is firmly entrenched in the UK Parliament, I think not.

    Looking forward to it young yin. Lol. MON THE HOOPS RAMORRA. KTF.

    It’s going back the way, work them till they are of no use, then clean out their funds.

     

     

     

     

    So true

     

     

    We work longer and we pay taxes longer its a win win for Westminster’s finances

     

     

    How do you sell such unpleasantness to the people

     

     

    Easy

     

     

    Tell the people they are all living longer

     

     

    What I don’t like about that is, they cant tell you who personally is living longer

  12. Syd,

     

     

    I don’t know when it is but I believe it’s when a bunch of football officials all meet up to discuss the rules of the game :)

  13. Independence will happen. Don’t know if it’ll be next week, hopefully so.

     

     

    No matter what, it’ll happen.

    I`m as cynical as they come but even I am astounded of forehead that those bigots are allowed to openly practice their hate-filled rituals in the very heart of Parliament in 21st Century Britain.

    Don’t you know that OO is a cultural club that occassionaly hold folk (spelling optional) festivals.

    You just don’t get it do you?

     

    The SNP would say anything to get people to vote yes

     

    They have made promises to virtually every section of the Scottish population

     

    Many of which are blatantly contradictory

     

    Salmond is backed by many of the Edinburgh cabal that funded Minty and the rest which got the banks in to so much bother!

     

    He is set to get Rupert Murdoch’s backing -he fell over himself to work with Donald Trump

     

    Yet many here in the west think these guys are going to roll over for a new socialist dawn!

     

    It would be funny if not so tragic!

  17. Ernie Lynch….

     

     

    The marvellous Stevie Wonder has just opened a ‘ladies’ barber shop….

     

     

    Apparently this change of career is not going well and the shop has the worst Brazilians since the World Cup semi v Germany.

    Assuming that you live in UK, you could raise the matter with your MP.

     

     

    MInd you I would guess that you will get body swerved.

  19. Tgbs,

     

     

    A horrible organisation I have no time for and not much interest in if I’m honest.

     

     

    But I’m appalled to hear about one operating in Westminster paid for by my fair taxes.

    The orange order are marching in Edinburgh tomorrow in support of a NO vote. Can we have assurance that in the event of a YES win that they will relocate down south!

    As I have said here before. In the world of politics never say never.

     

     

    Twenty years ago, could you have seen Martin describing Ian as being his friend. Yep a seat at a cabinet table and a chaffeur can iron out almost any problem.
