Manchester United plc reports higher revenue but continued losses for the three and nine months ended 31 March 2026. Quarterly revenue rose to £189.5 million, up 18.1% year-on-year, driven mainly by stronger Broadcasting and Commercial income, partly offset by lower Matchday revenue from fewer home games.
Total operating expenses increased 10.5% in the quarter to £179.2 million, with higher amortization and exceptional costs linked to exiting head coach Ruben Amorim and his staff, contributing to a quarterly loss after tax of £11.8 million. For the nine months, revenue reached £520.1 million and the loss after tax narrowed to £14.3 million from £29.1 million, helped by lower employee and other operating expenses and higher profit on player disposals, partly offset by a sharp rise in net finance costs from foreign-exchange movements on US dollar borrowings.
Manchester United reported a much stronger fiscal Q3 2026, combining better on‑pitch results with improved finances. Quarterly revenue rose to £189.5 million, up 18.1% year on year, helped by a 57.1% increase in broadcasting revenue and 10.3% growth in commercial revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter climbed to £84.7 million, up 65.4%, and for the first nine months operating profit reached £37.7 million versus a £3.2 million loss a year earlier, reflecting cost and headcount reductions plus better performance in the Premier League. On an adjusted basis, the quarter moved from a £5.5 million loss to a £5.1 million profit, although statutory net loss was £11.8 million due mainly to exceptional coaching exit costs and higher net finance charges.
The club finished third in the Premier League, securing UEFA Champions League qualification, renewed Head Coach Michael Carrick through 2028, and agreed new contracts with key players. Management raised full‑year 2026 guidance to revenue of £655–£665 million and adjusted EBITDA of £200–£210 million while confirming compliance with Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules and UEFA Financial Fair Play.
