Can someone with a finance or accounting background summarize the state of the accounts. It looks like we made a 5 million loss manly due to the value of Pittodrie. However is it me or are we just going back into debt again except this time it’s to directors and not the bank?

[fine-n-dandy]

Holy shit!

 

£6.5m pay off for Milne & co wtf?

[RUL]

Pittodrie charge of 4.25m as they’ve just had it valued at 11m and not the 15.25m they’ve been listing in the accounts. Presumably the last time we see accounts as we are going private ?

[starryfish]

Just had a very quick read through, no mention of the new contracts awarded to the management team? Maybe I missed it.

The loss is almost all down to the revaluation of Pittodrie but this isn't a cash cost. It's an accounting adjustment.

 

On an operating basis there was a cash outflow of around £1m but overall we were basically break even on a cash basis with all the funding that happened in the year.

 

There is director loan debt but some of this has already been converted into shares. The remaining director debt is £3.4m but this will just be converted into shares in 2022 if it’s not paid off (which it won't be!).

 

There is a loan on the balance sheet from the community trust for about £1m but this will be converted into a lease premium for them to use the training facilities for 22 years!

 

So we’re not getting into debt, they’ve just used loans which convert into shares for the new investment that’s come into the club.

 

 

Overall we're pretty break even, give or take £500k or so

Or to put it another way when the impact of a win (profit) was obvious we’ve tried to manage the year out for the draw and it more or less worked.

 

Sounds familiar.

[CityCentre]

Record turnover of £15.9 million.

 

A Europa League group stage would be a serious game changer for us.

[Poodler]

Beating relegation fodder would be a good start

[NEM]

Apparently the bigot brothers turnover £100million each. Just shows how far behind them we are in terms of sales.

 

 

Huns £53 million turnover losing £11.4 million

Rangers turnover nowhere near £100m.

[CityCentre]

Well Celtic then

 

We need to get into the Europa League group stages, that is the number one aim.

Imagine the £1m loan being converted to lease for access to Cormack Park mostly came from £1.4m or thereabouts that Cormack Foundation donated to AFCCT

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Record turnover of £15.9 million.

Agreed.

Sadly we’re miles away from that.

We won’t get near the Europa group stages if we’re signing folk like Curtis Main & Jon Gallagher.

The huns might turnover £100m...

In TWO years.

Whilst losing about £20m-£25m

[CityCentre]

Agreed.

Sadly we’re miles away from that.

The manager will most likely get one more shot at it, then it's time to move on, seven chances is more than enough.
