“Need to get into six million”
“AIK Hockey is not his toughest match on the ice. “
“The case of the new with licensing rules and the right figures in the balance sheet.”
“Now, on Friday launches yet another share issue and hope to have six million to clear elitlicensen.”
” the Rules of equity, I believe, is for the hard assets. It will be difficult for clubs in Teams to meet the requirements, ” says Anders Olson, ceo of AIK Hockey.”
“On Monday night was the show at the royal Court. “
“AIK in general, and Garry Nunn, in particular, made the process short with Oskarshamn in the first Hockeyallsvenska the finals, a series that will be decided in best-of-five matches.”
“at the moment it looks very bright for AIK to reach a result, which can lead to the team playing in the SHL next season.”
“But there are dangers for the AIK. At the financial statements in summer, the low earnings group profit of minus 6.6 million, despite the fact that the rights issue a year ago resulted in over nine million.”
“– Our economy is strained. We face a crossroads if we are able to invest each year towards the SHL or if we should adapt the business, ” says ceo Anders Olson.”
“”Hopes to receive six million””
“that is why you are now asking the fans if even more help. Earlier in the season, the club has borrowed three million of supportergrupperingen The Black Mass and it is not enough.”
“– Now we can’t borrow any more money to our business because we must have a balance sheet with an equity of at least two million last april to meet the licensing requirements. As part of our rebalanseringsplan, we perform yet another issue with the start on Friday where we hope to have six million. In the re-balanseringsplanen, we have added that we should have three extra games after the regular season, we also need five to six million in order to meet licensing requirements for Groups or SHL. For Groups comes to two million, and for the SHL four million. We must also not credit us with any future ligabidrag to be approved in the licensnämnden, ” says Anders Olson.”
“He is extremely pleased with what the team performed on the ice on Monday night. But worried for the future. Not only for the club’s economic situation and the increased licensing requirements.”
“– We will be back to our work environment in Stockholm, where the support from the municipality and the business sector will not compare with how the club environment is in many other locations and our relatively limited revenue opportunities on the Court makes it difficult for us to be able to be competitive against the clubs that we compete against.”
“– I also believe that with licensing rules are too harsh and I think many will end up in dire straits in the future. Now they have two million of the license for the game in Teams. In the future, increase it to four million for the Swedish second league allsvenskan and SHL to ten million. Extremely tough requirements, rounds off the president.”
