Arsenal LOSE money despite announcing record revenue as financial results land

Arsenal’s financial results for 2024/25 are in, and the Gunners have posted a staggering loss despite breaking a club record in terms of revenue after thriving in the Premier League and Champions League

Arsenal posted an overall loss of £1.4million in 2024/25 despite a record revenue of £691m. However, the shortcoming is a major improvement on the £17.7m loss recorded from the year ending May 31, 2024.

It’s also a marked improvement on the £52.1m loss that Arsenal Holdings Limited posted from May 31, 2023. The positive trajectory aligns well with the club’s continued endeavours in the Premier League and across Europe.

Arsenal look increasingly likely to clinch their first league title in more than two decades at the end of the season, sitting at the summit of the table and five points clear of a second-place Manchester City with just 10 games to go. Mikel Arteta has also helped his team thrive in the Champions League this season, finishing first in the league phase of the competition and straight into the knockout stages.

As a result, the club has benefited from an increase in broadcast revenue, as well as prize money from progressing through Europe’s premiere competition. This has ultimately helped offset increased cost like wages, which have risen to £346.8m.

Speaking about the results for the year via the official Arsenal website, Chief Executive Officer Richard Garlick said: “These financial results show a positive trajectory as we continue to pursue major trophies, following our second successive season back in the men’s UEFA Champions League in 2024/25.

“The investment in our teams, supported by revenue growth, resulted in strong campaigns for both our men’s and women’s teams last season. Our industry continues to face challenges in terms of the level of investment it takes to compete at the highest level in the face of rising costs in a regulated environment.

“This remains an important consideration as we look ahead. As we move into 2026, it’s an incredibly exciting time to be part of Arsenal.

“We continue to build something special on the back of these improved financial results. Our teams are pushing on to do everything we can to deliver major trophies and I want to thank all our staff for their passion and commitment to achieving our goals. The next few months represent a great opportunity for us all and it’s important we continue to build momentum together.”
