Wolves make a profit

Wolverhampton Wanderers made a profit in 2014-15, but it is dependent on parachute payments which end this year.  Pre-tax profits were £2.3m but these reduce to £700,000 when depreciation of the Molineux stadium is taken into account.

Turnover was down from £32.6m to £26.4m, largely reflecting a drop in parachute payments.   Gate money, sponsorship and advertising revenue were all up.

The club has been for sale since the beginning of the season at a realistic price, but has not attracted a bid.  This perhaps reflects the investment necessary to make a club able to compete for promotion to the Premier League.   Recent foreign investment has focused on League 2 clubs.
