PSV continued the financial upward trend of the previous fiscal year. With a net profit of €7.5 million, an increase in equity to €48 million, and record revenue of €171 million, 2024-2025 was a great success not only athletically, but also financially.
The club is financially very healthy. PSV realized a record turnover of no less than 171 million euros, an increase of 20 million euros compared to the previous financial year. This growth is partly due to the income from the UEFA Champions League and record revenues within Business & Hospitality (€41 million), Merchandise & Licensing (€11.3 million) and Ticketing & Match Operations (€28 million).
At the same time, costs increased by €9 million to over €150 million. This increase is largely attributable to premiums and bonuses resulting from sporting performance. On balance, this results in a positive operational result of €20.5 million, which after taxes amounts to a profit of €7.5 million. With 31 points, PSV belongs to the financially healthy clubs according to the KNVB financial rating system.
Corona era tax debt
Thanks to the income from the UEFA Champions League campaign, the club was able to fully repay the remaining tax debt dating from the corona era in advance. The amount involved was just under sixteen million euros. By fully repaying this corona loan early, PSV took its social responsibility; not because it had to, but because it could.
Investments
PSV aimed to also achieve a positive net transfer result in 2024-2025. Despite the sales of Jordan Teze, Matteo Dams and Jason van Duiven, it did not succeed. Transfer proceeds amounted to 21 million euros, which was insufficient to cover depreciation.
PSV invested not only in players, but also heavily in its own facilities. For example, the uncovered stands at the Academy's main pitch made way for the construction of Stadion De Herdgang. Meanwhile, in the new building behind the goal, they are working on their own wing for PSV Women. On Frederiklaan, among other things, a new dressing room area was realized, the third sponsor level was completely renovated and the second ring North received a new facade. The investments amounted to more than 17 million euros and were fully financed from equity.
Forecast
Because PSV is participating in the UEFA Champions League for the third year in a row and has already realized several outgoing transfers, the club expects to continue to post positive figures in 2025-2026. PSV thanks all players, players, youth players, technical staff, business partners and relations, suppliers, supporters, volunteers, the Supervisory Board, the Foundation Board, the Association and its own employees for their commitment and contribution to a very successful season.
