Update: Costs!
Higher than expected costs, driven by H2 on-field recovery, suggest that our forecast of broadly maintained pre-transfer EBITDA in the year just ended may now be met only thanks to a Champions League revenue loss insurance claim (our estimate €10m), for which we had not previously accounted. However, we are encouraged by continuing top-line buoyancy and the prospect of underlying profit resilience in FY16 despite no Champions League. Initial reaction to new coach Thomas Tuchel seems very positive, eg key players Gündogan and Hummels deciding to stay.Borussia Dortmund has two reportable segments, which are responsible for the main activites of the overall Group. The first segment consists of Borussia Dortmund GmbH & Co. KGaA, which operates a professional football club including professional football squad and leverages the associated revenue potential arising from the the transfer of players, catering, TV marketing, sponsorship and ticketing. The second segment consists of the separate merchandising business, which is carried out by BVB Merchandising GmbH. In addition, Co. assumes all the marketing activities for the stadium, including the event areas, on non-match days and includes activities such as stadium tours.
