RT @ByBerkowitz: With ACC, Big 12 and Pac-12 releasing new tax records today, here is roundup of total revenue for FY 24: -Big Ten: $928.1…

Tax expert Bob Willens: “The ability to amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of a sports franchise reduced the "effective cost" of the franchise by about 13 to 15%. If this change gets enacted, the cost reduction will be approximately 6-7%.”

The tax bill released by the House today reduces the deductions an owner can obtain on the purchase of a sports franchise and related assets in the purchase by 50%. In other words, only 50% of the amortization tax deductions currently available would be allowed.

$MSGS now up over 3% pre-market open. #NBA teams keep all home gate playoff revenue except for the 25% they kick to the league office and #Knicks now have good chance of several more home games than expected before series against #Celtics began.

FFP, per UEFA guidelines, clubs are required to reduce squad cost ratio (SCR) to less than 70% by 2025–26 season. SCR is defined as a sum of sporting personnel costs and amortisation of player rights, as a percentage of the sum of revenue and gains/losses on player transfers.

Historically, most clubs have sacrificed profitability for on-pitch success, but UEFA financial fair play restrictions have introduced expense discipline. revenues of top division clubs are now growing faster than player wages, resulting in improved valuations and profitability. https://t.co/OMIoaWHnqW
