HV71 sets new turnover record but reports modest profit

HV71 achieved a new club record in turnover for the 2025/26 season while posting a modest profit. The Swedish hockey club reported increased revenue driven by strong fan interest and sponsorships.

HV71 increased its turnover to 213 million kronor, up eight million from the previous year. This marks an almost 90 million kronor rise over five years from 124 million kronor. Acting chairman Stefan Axelsson credited the growth to sustained supporter and sponsor support. He noted higher NHL compensation this season but the absence of a major event like Melodifestivalen. The club recorded a profit of approximately 500,000 kronor after tax for the season. Equity remained strong at 59 million kronor despite higher costs in the men's team and added funding for women's and junior squads. The annual report will be available to members from June 9 and made public after the June 16 annual meeting.
