WEALTHY donations from some of Geelong’s biggest backers have helped mask the club’s short-term financial hurdles.
The Cats will tonight announce an operating loss in the order of $600,000 at the annual general meeting, despite posting a $2.3 million net profit for the financial year.
The net profit outcome is a result of $3 million in donations received this year as part of the club’s “Our Ambition” fundraising and debt-demolition campaign, which will fill the club’s coffers with $13 million over five years.
Geelong lost about $2 million in potential revenues this year as a result of the reduced capacity at Simonds Stadium, demolition of Club Cats and relocation of the pokies as a result of the stage-four redevelopment, meaning the $500,000 shortfall was as good as the Cats could have asked for.
