Celtic Football Club announced a pre-tax profit of £13.2 million for the six months to 31 December 2025. This figure represents a decrease from £43.9 million reported in the same period last year. Revenue for the Scottish Premiership side also fell by 28.9 percent to £59.4 million, down from £83.5 million.
The club attributed the revenue decline primarily to its participation in the UEFA Europa League, rather than the more lucrative Champions League, which offers higher media rights and ticket income. Profit from trading before intangible asset transactions stood at £4.2 million, a reduction from £26.9 million. Player transfer profits also decreased to £14.1 million from £21.5 million.
Despite these reductions, Celtic's cash position strengthened to £67.4 million at the period end, an increase from £65.4 million a year earlier. The interim period saw significant changes, including the resignation of manager Brendan Rodgers in October 2025 and the subsequent brief tenure of Wilfried Nancy. Interim chairman Brian Wilson noted the club expects lower revenue and profits in the second half of the financial year.
