Update: Tip top

As we expected, higher costs, driven by H2 on-field recovery, ensured that
FY15 pre-transfer EBITDA increased only thanks to a Champions League
revenue loss insurance claim (€11.8m). However, we continue to be
encouraged by top-line buoyancy and the prospect of underlying profit
resilience in FY16, despite no Champions League. Victory in all six
competitive games this season shows a very favourable reaction to new
coach Thomas Tuchel. We will fully review our forecasts on confirmation of
Europa League group stage participation and release of the annual report.
