Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Having reviewed the performance of the company subsequent to the year-end and having prepared forecasts for the remainder of the 2025/26 season, the directors are confident that the company will have adequate financial resources to operate for the foreseeable future, being a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Following records levels of turnover during the 2024/25 season, the club are confident that the new season will be another year of solid financial performance, with further targeted increases to turnover, continued careful management of costs. As a result, the directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The 2024/25 season ended in promotion to EFL League One via the Playoff Final versus Walsall in front of 30,000 Wimbledon fans at Wembley Stadium. The team also performed well in the Carabao Cup, defeating Premier League Ipswich Town on penalties.”
- “Significant investment in the squad contributed to success, with players like Myles Hippolyte, Matty Stevens, and Marcus Browne joining the ranks. Academy products Charlie Papps-Wilson and Jack Currie were sold for significant fees.”
- “The stadium team secured record revenue of £7.2m, a 10.6% uplift to the prior year. The season was severely impacted by September's flood, causing £1m of costs, with support from insurers and donations.”
- “Commercial highlights include record ticketing revenue of £3.4m, retail sales topping £1m (+23% year on year), and commercial partnerships jumping to £990k (up 13.5%). New contracts were renegotiated, including a new catering partner Aramark UK.”
