2014年11月18日The World’s 50 Most Valuable Sports Teams
The NFL has grown explosively over the past 25 years as TV revenue jumped 700%. The league’s 32 teams now divide $3.8 billion annually under the current round of broadcast deals, which expire after the 2013 season. With ratings at record levels, the next TV contracts are bound to be even more lucrative. Teams that were selling for $70 million in the mid 1980s are now worth $1 billion on average.
NFL owners claim they are not getting a big enough share of the league’s $9 billion in revenue, but a look at the world’s 50 most valuable sports teams shows how valuable NFL teams already are. The list is littered with NFL franchises all 32 teams make the cut, led by the Dallas Cowboys, worth $1.81 billion. Yet the top franchise plays a different kind of football. English Premier League power Manchester United is the world’s most valuable sports team, worth $1.86 billion.
The Glazer family, which also owns the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers (No. 18 at $1.03 billion), bought United in 2005 for $1.5 billion, but quickly drew the wrath of fans after the purchase saddled the team with a massive debt load. Fans feared the team would not have the resources to pay top players. In November the Glazers paid off $330 million of the debt which now stands at $756 million, or 41% of the team’s value (the average debt to value ratio of the top 50 franchises is 26%). Even better for fans of the Red Devils, the team captured its record 19th English Premier League title this year and made the finals of the UEFA Champions League before falling to Barcelona (No. 26 on our list, worth $975 million).
The finances of Manchester United continue to look up. This season marked the first year of its new shirt sponsorship with Nike, which already pays United nearly $40 million per year. The current 13 year contract is set to expire in 2015, but a new deal is expected to be done by next year that could be worth as much as $70 million a year. Reports surfaced last month that United is considering selling shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at a price that would value the club at $2.7 billion.
The Cowboys are the sports world’s second most valuable team with a worth of $1.81 billion. Jerry Jones’ $1.25 billion stadium, which opened in 2010, features more than just a 152 foot wide HD TV screen. Cowboys Stadium has 320 luxury suites and 15,000 club seats that wholesale nfl jerseys generate more than $100 million annually in premium seat revenue for Jones. America’s Team has also signed a host of lucrative sponsorship deals with the likes of AT Bank of America, Ford Motor and In Pictures: The World’s 50 Most Valuable Sports Teams
List like this make the NFL owners seem ridiculous. But, the problem with the NFL and the NBA is they want more teams on this list. MLB is in a scenario where they can’t complain because they are in a tight revenue sharing system. In some ways i think owning an MLB team is probably the most wise, than basketball or the gridiron, simply for the fact that MLB’s economics are far more simpler as an owner, but all the domestic leagues in the states are under the pressure of never growing their sport internationally. yes each sport has international fans, but what makes soccer ever growing is the international professionalism. Every country has a professional league, with the NBA, MLB, NFL and the NHL basketball, baseball, the gridiron, and hockey would lose their one and only big league.
I dont think the Statian sports can grow internationally, it may be too late, but they can domestically grow. do you agree?I think in todays society, any sport can attain global popularity. The modern media is unbounded,so popularity can be gained for any thing and any sport at a large grade. But, high end salaried professionalism is economically not as easy to attain. Could china have a league that is as economically potent as the NBA, in terms of team profits and player salaries? I have no question china can already rival the NBA with their top domestic league in terms of popularity. Look at womens soccer. Already I see it as globally ahead of womens basketball, even though the WNBA has had good time ahead of it. But the parallel of professional womens sports is easiest to form when when men play it professionally. At the end, I guess the question is simple. Can the NFL survive or live comfortably in the future with just a domestic niche? I ask the same question of Baseball and MLB specifically? As soccer grows with women professionally, can the gridiron and baseball exist in the long term? Short term I agree with you, no problems. But, long term? I dont know. I wonder your thoughts
Fair enough Mr. Badenhausen, you would definitely have more insight than I, considering the company you blog for.
I wonder, in your findings, can you state how close some teams were that represent sports not touted in the 50. Soccer, the gridiron, basketball, baseball, f1 were on the list. How close were the maple leafs, I assume they are the most profitable hockey club? What about rugby and cricket teams? what about NAscar? I read in some article that Nascar made more money than F1, though I can’t believe that, with my knowledge of the international appeal and investment in F1. On the other hand Soccer is growing in this country, it is the worlds game and with all immigrants comming from central and south america that will add millions of new fans mostly geared towards MLS. At some point I think the bubble will burst as far as the kind of money the networks are paying for TV rights for the NFL. I cant imagine this pace can continue indefinetely.
your forgetting the modern media. Today, no sport can wholesale jerseys die, because modern media tools are so vast, if you have fans they can reach you.
Second, the NFL is trying a different model NFL Europe proved they can’t compete with Soccer in terms of making foreign leagues, they simply took to long doing it. So, NFL is using immigration in truth. When people come from south america and etc. they are integrating into society in the states and their children are going to schools where football is beloved, so they are becoming fans and thus the gridiron and by extension the NFL has more fans. ManU has debts of 750 Million compared to Bayern Munich (i dont know the exact numbers) which has estimated liquid assets of 300 Mio and debts just because of financing a new stadium, that makes a difference of 1 billion in equity, but still doesnt seem Cheap NFL Jerseys Free Shipping to have an impact on the value. EBIT, cause their first target is to have success in sports and not to have profit. Though, lets be honest. Forbes said Miami gained a 17% increase in profit. Winning championships and being the most profitable club really arent the same things are they.
PRofitability is about media and appearance. As long as your club is decent that is enough.
Look at the spurs in NBA, or Barcelona as a club, or the steelers football team.
As of late the most successful clubs trophy wise are usually of a smaller market than the more profitable teams.
I wonder what do you think of this
I am a senior editor at Forbes and focusmainly on the business of sports and our annual franchise valuations. I also spend a lot of my time digging into what athletes earn on and off the field of play. I’ve profiled a bunch of athletes that go by one name: LeBron, Shaq, Danica and others. I also head up our biennial B School rankings, our list of America’s Best Small Companies and our annual features on the Best Places for Business (metros, states and countries).
