"At this stage of the development of the women's game in England, the club is reliant on the backing of Arsenal Football Club Limited which contributes a support fee to supplement the company's own revenues. The club continues to have the unwavering support and commitment of both its immediate parent, Arsenal Football Club Limited, and its ultimate parent company, KSE UK Inc."
"Thanks largely to playing nine of 11 home WSL matches at Emirates Stadium, with an average crowd of 34,110, matchday revenue rose to 5.9m, up 35% from the previous season's 4.4m. Those numbers are expected to rise this season with all home league games being played at Emirates Stadium."
"Commercial revenue soared from 649,000 in 2023-24 to 1.8m. Broadcast revenue also increased to just over 2m, up from 956,000, including 1.4m from the Champions League campaign. Domestic broadcast revenue remains a small part of the club's income."
Arsenal Women achieved significant financial growth in the 2024-25 season, generating club record profit of 22,000 after tax. Total revenue reached 21.5m, up from 15m, driven by nearly tripled commercial revenue reaching 1.8m and matchday revenue increasing 35% to 5.9m. Playing nine of eleven home WSL matches at Emirates Stadium generated average crowds of 34,110. Broadcast revenue more than doubled to 2m, including 1.4m from the Champions League campaign. Operating expenses rose to 21.6m with wages increasing 22% to 9.9m. Despite these gains, the women's team remains fundamentally reliant on 11.9m in annual support from Arsenal Football Club Limited, representing the largest income source and reflecting the developmental stage of women's professional football in England.
