Summary Description
Stadium Capital Financing Group (“SCFG”) has
developed a unique, proprietary financing method
for universities. Our execution capabilities
were greatly enhanced when Morgan Stanley
Principal Investments purchased a controlling
interest in the Stadium Capital in May, 2007.
Please
contact Stadium
Capital if you would like to learn more about
our Equity Seat Right product.
The following overview can be provided.
Universities could receive upfront proceeds
ranging from $50 million to over $500 million
dollars without incurring debt or diluting their
ownership. Proceeds can be used to create
endowments, repay debt, build or renovate
stadiums and can also be used to fund
non-revenue sports programs. The process would
provide the fan long-term protection from
escalating season ticket prices, while
guaranteeing long-term access to premium
tickets.
The ESR process is "fan-friendly" and delivers
significant benefits to both the fan and team:
-
Enables the
university to raise significant capital
while preserving economic and governing
control
-
Total
flexibility in use of proceeds - stadium
expansion, repayment of debt obligations and
endowment creation
-
Cements
long-term relationship with alumni and
corporate sponsors
-
Provides
significant tax benefits to the university
and alumni
-
Does not have to
replace existing fundraising programs (can
be incorporated with existing programs )
-
Minimizes the
need for government/public financial support
for stadium construction
-
Much better than
a typical Personal Seat License program for
both the fan and the university
During the past year Stadium
Capital has developed an advanced proprietary
ESR model that we believe is going to
revolutionize the sports and stadium financing
industry. We provide financial, accounting,
regulatory, tax, unique execution capabilities
and sales and marketing services for teams and
stadiums implementing the ESR product
