MANCHESTER, England – 17 September 2025 – Manchester United (NYSE: MANU; the "Company", the "Group" and the "Club") today announced financial results for the 2025 fiscal fourth quarter and twelve months ended 30 June 2025.

**<u>Management Commentary</u>**

Omar Berrada, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "As we settle into the 2025/26 season, we are working hard to improve the club in all areas. On the field, we are pleased with the additions we have made to our men's and women's first team squads over the summer, as we build for the long-term. Off the field, we are emerging from a period of structural and leadership change with a refreshed, streamlined organisation equipped to deliver on our sporting and commercial objectives.

"We are also investing to upgrade our infrastructure, including completion of the £50m redevelopment of our men's first team building at Carrington, on time and on budget, following prior investment in our women's team facilities, to create a world-class environment for our players and staff. Meanwhile, planning continues to meet our ambition of developing a new stadium at Old Trafford as part of a transformational regeneration of the surrounding community.

"To have generated record revenues during such a challenging year for the club demonstrates the resilience which is a hallmark of Manchester United. Our commercial business remains strong as we continue to deliver appealing products and experiences for our fans, and best-in-class value to our partners. As we start to feel the benefits of our cost-reduction programme, there is significant potential for improved financial performance, which will, in turn, support our overriding priority: success on the pitch."

**<u>Outlook and Guidance Details</u>**

For fiscal 2026, the Company is introducing new full year revenue guidance of £640 million to £660 million and new adjusted EBITDA guidance of £180 million to £200 million. Included in full year revenue guidance is an improvement to Retail, Merchandising and Licensing revenues, reflecting a first full year of our in-house e-commerce operation and a slight uplift in Broadcasting revenues with forecast increased Premier League revenues offsetting the absence of any UEFA competition in fiscal 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2026 reflects reduced non-playing staff and other operating costs, as the Club realises the effects of its steps to improve operational efficiency, through headcount reduction measures and various cost saving initiatives.

The club remains committed to, and in compliance with, both the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules and UEFA's Financial Fair Play Regulations.

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted loss for the period and adjusted basic loss per share are non-IFRS measures. See "Non-IFRS Measures: Definitions and Use" on page 8 and the accompanying Supplemental Notes for the definitions and reconciliations for these non-IFRS measures and the reasons we believe these measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Group's financial condition and results of operations.

<sup>(2)</sup> In addition to non-current borrowings, the Group maintains a revolving credit facility which varies based on seasonal flow of funds. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility as of 30 June 2025 was £160.0 million and total current borrowings including accrued interest payable was £165.1 million.

**<u>Revenue Analysis</u>**

Total revenue for the year ended 30 June 2025 was £666.5 million, an increase of £4.7 million, or 0.7%, compared to the year ended 30 June 2024, as a result of an increase in revenue in our Commercial and Matchday sectors, partially offset by a decrease in our Broadcasting revenue, as described below.

***Commercial***

Commercial revenue for the year was £333.3 million, an increase of £30.4 million, or 10.0%, over the prior year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Sponsorship* revenue was £188.4 million, an increase of £10.6 million, or 6.0%, over the prior
 year, primarily due to the 2024/25 season being the first with our new front of shirt partner,
 Qualcomm, via their Snapdragon brand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Retail, Merchandising, Apparel & Product Licensing* revenue was £144.9 million,
 an increase of £19.8 million, or 15.8%, over the prior year, primarily due to the launch
 of our new e-commerce model in partnership with SCAYLE.

For the quarter, commercial revenue was £88.2 million, an increase of £17.0 million, or 23.9%, over the prior year quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Sponsorship* revenue was £51.2 million, an increase of £9.4 million, or 22.5% over the prior
 year quarter, primarily due to our men's first team undertaking their first ever post-season
 tour to Malaysia and Hong Kong; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· *Retail, Merchandising, Apparel & Product Licensing* revenue was £37.0 million,
 an increase of £7.6 million, or 25.9%, over the prior year quarter, due to our new
 e-commerce model in partnership with SCAYLE, combined with the launch of our new home kit
 for the 2025/26 season, with no comparative launch in the prior year quarter.

***Broadcasting***

Broadcasting revenue for the year was £172.9 million, a decrease of £48.9 million, or 22.0%, over the prior year, primarily due to the men's first team participating in the UEFA Europa League compared to the UEFA Champions League in the prior year, in addition to finishing 15<sup>h</sup> in the Premier League in the current year, compared to finishing 8<sup>th</sup> in the Premier League in the prior year.

Broadcasting revenue for the quarter was £38.7 million, an increase of £0.3 million, or 0.8%, over the prior year quarter, primarily due to the men's first team reaching the final of the UEFA Europa League, offsetting a lower than expected finish in the Premier League.

***Matchday***

Matchday revenue for the year was £160.3 million, an increase of £23.2 million, or 16.9%, over the prior year, due to the men's first team playing 5 more home matches in the current year compared to the prior year, along with strong demand for our hospitality offering.

Matchday revenue for the quarter was £37.2 million, an increase of £4.6 million, or 14.1%, over the prior year quarter, primarily due to playing a home quarter-final and semi-final in the UEFA Europa League in the current year quarter, partially offset by one less Premier League home match compared to the prior year quarter.

**<u>Other Financial Information</u>**

***Operating expenses***

Total operating expenses for the year were £733.6 million, a decrease of £34.9 million, or 4.5%, over the prior year. This decrease is explained by category below.

***Employee benefit expenses***

Employee benefit expenses for the year were £313.2 million, a decrease of £51.5 million, or 14.1%, over the prior year. This is primarily due to the men's first team participating in the UEFA Europa League rather than the UEFA Champions League in the prior year, the impact of changes in the make-up of our first team playing squad throughout the season and reduced non-playing staff costs as a result of the club's restructuring process.

***Other operating expenses***

Other operating expenses for the year were £170.4 million, an increase of £21.0 million, or 14.1%, over the prior year. This is primarily due to costs associated with the transition to our new e-commerce model in the current year.

***Depreciation, impairment and amortization***

Depreciation and impairment for the year was £17.0 million, an increase of £0.5 million, or 3.0%, over the prior year. Amortization for the year was £196.4 million, an increase of £6.3 million, or 3.3%, over the prior year, due to continued investment in the first team playing squad. The unamortized balance of registrations at 30 June 2025 was £537.3 million.

***Exceptional items***

Exceptional items for the year were a cost of £36.6 million, as a result of compensation for loss of office costs incurred in relation to the restructuring of the club's operations, as well as costs associated with the departure of former men's first team head coach Erik ten Hag and various members of football staff. Exceptional items for the prior year were a cost of £47.8 million, primarily comprising costs related to the transaction with Trawlers Limited (later INEOS Limited) including fees payable on completion and compensation for loss of office.

***Profit on disposal of intangible assets***

Profit on disposal of intangible assets for the year was £48.7 million, compared to £37.4 million for the prior year.

***Net finance costs***

Net finance costs for the year were £21.2 million, compared to net finance costs of £61.4 million for the prior year, a decrease of £40.2 million, or 65.5%. This is primarily due to a large unrealized foreign exchange gain on unhedged USD borrowings of £22.9 million in the current year, compared to a small unrealized foreign exchange loss of £2.8 million in the prior year, as well as positive movements on our cash flow hedges associated with the strengthening of GBP relative to USD.

***Income tax***

The income tax credit for the year was £6.6 million, compared to a credit of £17.5 million in the prior year. In both years the credit arises primarily as a result of deferred tax assets recognised in respect of losses arising in the year.

***Cash flows***

Overall cash and cash equivalents (including the effects of exchange rate movements) increased by £12.5 million in the year, compared to a decrease of £2.5 million in the prior year.

Net cash inflow from operating activities for the year was £72.7 million, a decrease of £13.0 million compared to a net cash inflow of £85.7 million for the prior year. This is explained further in the Statement of Cash Flows on page 13 and Cash Generated from Operations note on page 16.

Net capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment for the year was £44.7 million, an increase of £27.2 million over the prior year. This is due to expenditure on the upgrade of facilities at our Carrington Training Centre.

Net capital expenditure on intangible assets for the year was £230.0 million, an increase of £76.3 million over the prior year, due to continued investment in the first team playing squad.

Net cash inflow from financing activities for the year was £209.6 million. This is due to net drawdowns on our revolving facilities of £130.0 million, in addition to £80.0 million of proceeds from the issue of shares as part of the transaction agreement with Trawlers Limited (later INEOS Limited).

***Balance sheet***

Our USD non-current borrowings as of 30 June 2025 were $650 million, which remains unchanged from 30 June 2024. As a result of the year-on-year change in the USD/GBP exchange rate from 1.2643 at 30 June 2024 to 1.3709 at 30 June 2025, our non-current borrowings when converted to GBP were £471.9 million, compared to £511.0 million at the prior year end.

In addition to non-current borrowings, the Group maintains a revolving credit facility which varies based on seasonal flow of funds. Current borrowings, including accrued interest, at 30 June 2025 were £165.1 million compared to £35.6 million at 30 June 2024.

As of 30 June 2025, cash and cash equivalents were £86.1 million compared to £73.5 million at 30 June 2024. This movement is detailed further in the Statement of Cash Flows on page 13 of this report.

**<u>Cautionary Statements</u>**

This press release contains forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on such statements because they are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties relating to the Company's operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many are beyond the Company's control. These statements often include words such as "may," "might," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "seek," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "contemplate," "possible" or similar expressions. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on our current expectations and estimates of future events and trends, which affect or may affect our businesses and operations. You should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect its actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements. These factors are more fully discussed in the "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in the Company's Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-182535) and the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F (File No. 001-35627) as supplemented by the risk factors contained in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

**Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information**

The unaudited financial information set forth is preliminary and subject to adjustments. The audit of the financial statements and related notes to be included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended 30 June 2025 is still in progress. Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when audit work is completed, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

**<u>Non-IFRS Measures: Definitions and Use</u>**

**1.**  **<u>Adjusted EBITDA</u>** 

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as loss for the period before depreciation and impairment, amortization, profit on disposal of intangible assets, net finance costs/income, exceptional items and tax.

Adjusted EBITDA is useful as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance, and it removes the effect of our asset base (primarily depreciation, impairment and amortization), material volatile items (primarily profit on disposal of intangible assets and exceptional items), capital structure (primarily finance income/costs), and items outside the control of our management (primarily taxes). Adjusted EBITDA excludes exceptional items, defined as items that are not indicative of the ordinary trading performance of the business. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under IFRS as issued by the IASB. A reconciliation of loss/profit for the period to adjusted EBITDA is presented in supplemental note 2.

**2.**  **<u>Adjusted loss for the period (i.e. adjusted net loss)</u>** 

Adjusted loss for the period is calculated, where appropriate, by adjusting for charges/credits related to exceptional items, foreign exchange gains/losses on unhedged US dollar denominated borrowings (including foreign exchange losses immediately reclassified from the hedging reserve following change in contract currency denomination of future revenues), and fair value movements on embedded foreign exchange derivatives and foreign currency options, adding/subtracting the actual tax expense/credit for the period, and subtracting/adding the adjusted tax expense/credit for the period (based on a normalized tax rate of 25%; 2024: 25%). The normalized tax rate of 25% is the current UK corporation tax rate. A reconciliation of loss for the period to adjusted loss for the period is presented in supplemental note 3.

**3.**  **<u>Adjusted basic and diluted loss per share</u>** 

Adjusted basic and diluted loss per share are calculated by dividing the adjusted loss for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. Adjusted diluted loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. There is one category of dilutive potential ordinary shares: share awards pursuant to the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Plan"). Share awards pursuant to the Equity Plan are assumed to have been converted into ordinary shares at the beginning of the financial year. Adjusted basic and diluted loss per share are presented in supplemental note 3.

<sup>(1)</sup> For the twelve and three months ended 30 June 2025 and the twelve and three months ended 30 June 2024, potential ordinary shares are anti-dilutive, as their inclusion in the diluted loss per share calculation would reduce the loss per share, and hence have been excluded.
