  • Celtic reported a loss after tax of £4.8m for the year ending June 30, compared to a £33.9m profit in 2025.
  • Revenue fell by 22.7% to £111m from £143.6m in 2025.

Celtic Football Club has announced a loss after tax of £4.8m for the year ending June 30. This contrasts with a profit of £33.9m reported for the preceding 12-month period.

The club's revenue decreased by 22.7%, moving from £143.6m in 2025 to £111m. Celtic stated that the primary reason for this financial shift was the club's failure to secure Champions League participation last season.

Despite the loss, Celtic reported a cash in the bank total of £66.4m, down from £77.3m in 2025. Interim chairman Brian Wilson described the past campaign as "more turbulent than anyone would have wished for," referencing three different managers during the 2025-26 season and the retirement of chairman Peter Lawwell in December.

Wilson congratulated Martin O'Neill and staff for delivering a league and Scottish Cup double, despite the challenges. He also mentioned that Celtic spent £31.6m this summer on new player recruits, including Kasper Hogh and Camilo Duran.
