CHELSEA RELEASES LATEST FINANCIAL FIGURES
Posted on: Wed 30 Dec 2009
Chelsea FC plc today (Wednesday) announced that as of its year end 2009
virtually all outstanding debt has been converted into equity and the
company is now effectively debt free.
The group also announced reduced losses for the fourth consecutive year.
The group results reveal that following previous conversions of half of
the debt, the remainder of the interest-free loans from the parent
company, whose ultimate controlling party is Roman Abramovich, have been
converted into equity making the group effectively debt free.
This demonstrates the continuing commitment from the shareholder to the
group.
The results also show losses decreased by £21.3 million.
And disciplined management of capital expenditure has reduced the cash
spend from £107.4m down to £16.9m.
Revenues remain stable despite the economic climate and reflect the
strength of the team, its continued success and the attractiveness of the
FA Premier League allied with the continued allegiance of our fans and
commercial partners.
The main figures:
- Group turnover was down from £213.1m to £206.4m
- Turnover was generally flat. The small year-on-year reduction reflects
the front-loaded nature of certain sponsorship revenues
- Loss for the financial year reduced from £65.7m to £44.4m
- Remainder of shareholder debt of £340m was capitalised
- Net capital expenditure reduced from £85.1m to £4.2m following the
completion of major capital projects such as the training centre at
Cobham
- Cash outflow reduced from £107.4m to £16.9m
Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck said: 'The club's debt load has been reduced
almost to nil in order to provide more long-term stability for the club.
'The reduction will also enable the club to comply with any regulations on
debt levels which are being discussed by the football community.'
Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay said: 'It is still our aim to be self-
sufficient and we will achieve this by increasing our revenues as we
continue to leverage off our brand. We are reducing our costs by
controlling expenses, including salaries and wages.'
The results include exceptional items of £12.6m related to compensation
payments to a first team manager and three coaching staff.

阿布為切爾西送上了一份遲到的聖誕大禮,這位俄國富商宣佈,自己將履行當初
對切爾西俱樂部和球迷的承諾,將從2003年收購俱樂部後標註在帳戶上的無息貸款全
部清除,換句話說,俱樂部欠他的3.4億內部債務將一筆勾銷。
《每日郵報》分析指出,阿布之所以如此急於將這筆內債清除,主要的原因還是
為了幫助切爾西能夠順利的在歐洲賽場上完成比賽。之前歐足聯準備出台一項關於
“公平財政競技”的規定,如果任何一傢俱樂部存在財政方面的漏洞,將被剔除出歐
洲賽場。此前切爾西之間的債務雖然是內部問題,但依然在歐足聯限制的範圍內。
切爾西的新任CEO古爾利一直強調,切爾西正在朝著自負盈虧的道路上大踏步前
進,最新的統計數字表明,就算阿布沒有提供方便,切爾西的虧損數額也已有大幅度
下調。切爾西的財務報表顯示,今年他們的赤字為4400萬英鎊,去年同期的數字則為
6570萬英鎊。此外,過去一年,光是解僱斯科拉里就花費了球隊1260萬英鎊,畢竟巴
西人上任7個月後就被阿布掃地出門。
切爾西主席巴克對於阿布善舉表示感謝:“為了長期以及更穩定的發展,俱樂部
的債務幾乎為零,這次的債務清除讓俱樂部符合足球有關部門對於負債程度的要求。”
從阿布上任到現在,切爾西一直自在虧損,但能夠逐漸的減少這一數字絕對是一
個積極的信號。此前,前任CEO肯揚曾表示,俱樂部很難在2010年完成收支平衡,但
古爾利卻不這樣認為:“收支平衡是我們的目標,我們通過提高品牌知名度來完成它
我們還在限制開支,包括球員薪水的控制。”
實際上,這已經不是阿布第一次為切爾西清除債務,如今的這份遲到的聖誕大禮
已經是他第二次為俱樂部犧牲自己的利益。作為切爾西唯一的股東,這次的行為意味
著他抹平了切爾西所有債務。
今年,切爾西與三星簽署了一份新的胸前廣告合同,不過他們的營業額還是由去
年的2.131億英鎊減少到了2.064億英鎊。但考慮到科本訓練基地升級已完成,基礎設
施投入也從去年的8510萬英鎊降到了420萬英鎊。現金流支出則由1.074億英鎊降到了
1690英鎊。這也意味著,切爾西的確在朝著自負盈虧的目標前進。
由於外資的不斷侵襲,歐足聯主席普拉蒂尼已在制定一份“公平財政競技”章程
切爾西雖然還沒做到收支平衡,但在抹平債務之後,藍軍已確保躲開了歐足聯新狼牙
棒的處罰。《每日郵報》指出,只要章程被推上前台,很多不滿歐足聯的負債俱樂部
將被剔除出歐洲賽場,目前這一方案的牽頭人是比利時首相呂克˙德阿納。

“在很小的年紀,切爾西給了我一個如此難以置信的機會。這就是我想要把整個職
業生涯獻給切爾西和球迷們的原因,因為如果沒有他們,我就什麼也不是,就是這
麼簡單。”
