In this weblog I am discussing FC Barcelona´s Financial balance.

FC Barcelona is the second richest soccer club in the world.

The financial expences /71.5 million euros

Net profit or loss: -11.1 million euros
And cash flow: -79.6 million euros

Trading income: 420.2 million euros
Operating costs: 428.1 million euros
Operating profit or loss: -7.9 million euros
Financial and extraordinary profit or loss: -13.5 million euros

Better then expected

As you can see the debts of FC Barcelona are huge.
That doesn’t mean anything but that they are not comfortable working with this debt.

2011 season
Barcelona made a smaller loss than expected last season and are confident of returning to profit in the 2011-12 campaign after two years of deficits.
The Spanish and European champions posted a pre-tax loss of 9.3 million euros (£8.2m) in the year to the end of June, less than half the 21.4 million euros expected and down from 83 million euros in the year-earlier period.

Winning the Champions League, the club’s new sponsorship deal with Qatar Foundation, a strong turnout at the Camp Nou stadium and a surge in visitors to the club’s museum had helped trim the deficit, he added.
“Our obligation is to make a profit from next season and we will do that,” he said. “For the first time in two years we will present a budget that foresees profit.”
