Future of Sports Broadcasting: Discussion
Mr. Jonathan Hill:
I thank the Senator for the question. Our broadcast revenues are at similar levels, accounting for around 20% of our overall turnover. The majority of our broadcast revenues are driven by our senior men’s team. That is a centralised deal with UEFA, as noted in our background information. That deals runs through to 2028. Therefore, in the medium term, that percentage of our overall turnover, for which we have a strategic goal of reaching around €50 million, will stay at around the same level. However, we would like to see growth in League of Ireland revenues, potentially with LOITV. Any growth in those revenues would go, as per today, directly to the League of Ireland clubs.
