Overview

  • CEO Philipp Türoff presented audited 2024/25 figures to members, confirming revenue of €150.8 million and a net profit of €5.4 million.
  • The club cited sales of Jeff Chabot and Jonas Urbig, DFB-Pokal receipts, record merchandise, partner renewals and the takeover of stadium catering as key drivers.
  • BILD reports the January sale of goalkeeper Jonas Urbig to FC Bayern brought about €7 million with potential bonuses, a sum the outlet says was pivotal for the balance sheet.
  • Liabilities fell to €32.2 million as equity rose to €29.4 million, and the team returned to the Bundesliga with a license free of conditions, according to the club and Stern.
  • After promotion the club reinvested in a dozen signings, including Rav van den Berg, with BILD reporting an outlay of roughly €25 million and scope to add again in winter.
