Club posts 2021/22 profit

Despite the difficulties faced during a period when COVID-19 affected so many businesses, the club has grown in all aspects of its operation.

In a historic year in which ownership of the club was transferred to the fans, the first team’s magnificent 21/22 campaign, which saw Robbie Neilson lead the Jambos to third-place in the cinch Premiership, a Scottish Cup Final and guaranteed group stage European football, helped drive the club forward financially.

Record retail and hospitality sales, combined with significant gate receipt income and continued partnership and sponsorship support, ensured a significant £6.9m year-on-year increase in turnover, totalling £14.6m.

Operating costs have increased 60% year-on-year, reflecting our revenue growth, the impact of the recent cost of living increase and our commitment to continue to invest for the future.

Boosted by players sales and ongoing benefactors’ support, profit before tax of £1.7m was reported for the financial year, proving that is very much ‘business as usual’ at Tynecastle Park.

Financial Highlights:

·      Turnover £14.6m (90% increase on the prior year)

·      EBITDA £3m

·      PBT £1.7m

·      Net Assets £24m
