National League

NLA - SC Bern did not have a successful season last year on the sportive side of things, but economically, they still managed to come out on top, as CEO Marc Lüthi presented a net profit of CHF 112,744 to the general assembly.

However, that amount of profit was only made possible due to the contractually bound wage deduction for the players that set in, when the Bears did not reach the playoffs this spring. Still, with an EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) of CHF 1,5 Million, as presented by chairman Walter Born, SCB is doing well.

The attendance rate in the PostFinance-Arena could again be raised, averaging at 16,347 per game compared to 16, 330 last season.

Furthermore, CEO Marc Lüthi is pretty content with the rate that SC Bern sells its season tickets. They will again stop the sale - as in previous seasons - as soon as the threshold of 13,000 tickets sold is reached.
