The World Champion Atlanta Braves pulled in $104 million in 2021, according to a new financial report.
The news comes from Liberty Media, which owns the ballclub. Figures from the company’s 2021 financial reports show that Braves revenue skyrocketed on the way to their Major League Baseball title.
Atlanta Braves Made $104 Million Last Year
Here’s what the company accomplished in a banner year:
“It was a strong end to 2021 for the Liberty companies. The finish to the Formula 1 World Championship could not have been more suspenseful. The compelling action on the track continues to power the business’s flywheel and we recently made numerous announcements around value-creating agreements. SiriusXM hit record revenue and adjusted EBITDA levels and announced a $1 billion special dividend. The Atlanta Braves are still basking in the glory of their World Series title. Live Nation benefited from incredible fan demand in the back half of the year and all leading indicators point to record performance in 2022,” said Greg Maffei, Liberty Media President and CEO. “We enter this year energized and excited for the next areas of growth across the board.”
With the type of money the Braves have generated, the big question is first baseman Freddie Freeman is a free agent. Will they go all in to re-sign him?
Only time will tell.
