New Era Cap To Acquire '47 in Major Sporting Headwear Deal. New Era Cap, a leading American sporting headwear brand, announced it would acquire neighboring hat label '47 to bring the two headwear market’s most prominent names under one roof. According to Reuters, New Era aims to build a company that generates approximately EUR 2 billion annually. Before the acquisition, the brand was eyeing an initial public offering, expected to be valued at around USD 5 billion. New Era and ’47 make licensed hats for the major American sports leagues, including the National Football League (NFL), National Basketball Association (NBA), Major League Baseball (MLB), National Hockey League (NHL), MLS NEXT Pro, NCAA, and NASCAR. The former label’s signature 59Fifity cap was launched in 1954, roughly 30 years after Ehrhardt Koch founded the family-led brand based in Buffalo, New York. ’47, which also creates team apparel, started in 1947 when twins Arthur and Henry D’Angelo began selling sports merch outside Fenway Park. With the acquisition, Koch has stated that the New Era will offer “a breadth of products across both brands and enhance how we serve our customers and partners around the world.” He added, “We will also have opportunities in new markets where New Era already has distributed capabilities and a strong customer base.” The terms of the acquisition were not shared, but the deal will be reportedly close by the end of this year and before New Era’s stock market debut.  By: Dylan Kelly HYPEBEAST #NewEra #’47 #HypeBeast  #NFL #NBA #MLB #MLS #NCAA #NHL #NASCAR #acquire #EhrhardtKoch #ArthurD’Angelo #HenryD’Angelo #FenwayPark #Reuters #59Fifity #apparel #sports #sportsmerch  #majorsportingheadweardeal

Private Equity Says It’s Got the Data to Back a Push Into Sports. The business of sports investing is getting its index, with one of the firms behind private equity’s intrusion into the industry looking to bring a more scientific approach to the burgeoning asset class. In Dallas, Texas-based Arctos, which runs about $7 billion in funds with stakes in teams including the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Golden State Warriors, was unveiled as a new financial benchmark for North American sports franchises. The Ross Arctos Sports Franchise Index is based on the sales of the teams’ stakes all across the Major League Baseball (MLB), National Basketball Association (NBA), National Football League (NFL), and National Hockey League (NHL). Compiled with the University of Michigan - Stephen M. Ross School of Business, which samples more than 400 transactions since 1960. The index has delivered an annualized return of 12% over the past two decades. That compares with 10% for the S&P 500 and nearly 15% for the private equity. However, more importantly, Arctos explains that sports investing has been less sensitive to the swings of bonds and stocks. Many North American sports have seen a flurry of deals in recent years as private equity firms like Arctos and Blue Owl Capital snap up to the minority stakes. Even in the period since 2020, one of its busiest periods, the benchmarks have recorded an average of only about 17 transactions annually.  By: Justina Lee Bloomberg #Privateequity #business #ArctosPartnersLP #NBA #NFL #MLB #NHL #sports  #BlueOwlCapital #minoritystakes  #LosAngelesDodgers #Bloomberg  #GoldenStateWarriors #firms #bondsandstocks #UniversityofMichigansRossSchoolofBusniess  #RossArctosSportsFranchise 

Home of the Philadelphia 76ers, Philadelphia Flyers needs a new naming rights deal after Wells Fargo pulls out. The home of the Philadelphia 76ers and the Philadelphia Flyers will soon get a new name where they play. Banking giant Wells Fargo says it will not renew its naming rights deal with the arena that is located in the South Philadelphia sports complex that has served as the home of the city’s National Hockey League (NHL) and National Basketball Association (NBA), most major entertainment touring acts, two political conventions, WrestleMania 32, lacrosse, college basketball, and countless other events. Wells Fargo came out on Wednesday, July 24th, saying that it would not renew its deal with the building owner and operator Comcast Spectacor, the parent company of the Flyers, when it expires in August 2025. The arena first opened in 1996 and was named CORESTATES Center, where it was home to Philly sports like Allen Iverson, Eric Lindros, Joel Embiid, and many NCAA Tournament games. The building had many different names, and Wells Fargo bought out Wachovia Corp in 2003 and posted its name on the roughly 21,000-seat building in 2010. The Sixers have said they do not intend to stay in the arena beyond their 2031 lease because the team has proposed a $1.3 billion arena near the city’s Chinatown neighborhood. Wells Fargo has reportedly paid $1.4 million annually as part of their deal. Comcast Spectacor has recently pumped $400 million into the arena as part of the massive renovation project, which includes a $30 million investment and a completely redesigned 46,000 square feet inside the arena with over 16,000 square feet that would be dedicated to the new locker rooms for both the Sixers and Flyers.  By: Dan Gelston ABC News #NBA #NHL #WellsFargo #ABCNews #ComcastSpectacor #PhiladelphiaSixers #Chinatown  #PhiladelphiaFlyers #Wachovia #NCAATournaments #arena  #WrestleMania #CoreStateCenter

2024 turning into big year for sports business in Columbus. Columbus, Ohio, is the most prominent hot spot for sports to be held there. The Greater Columbus Sports Commission explained that 2024 will be their record's most significant year for sports. The City of Columbus is currently in the spotlight for hosting the MLS NEXT Pro All-Star game at Lower.com Field. This is one of the many major sporting events calling Columbus home this year. Jesse Ghiorzi, the sports commission, said that in the first six months of the year, major sporting events have already brought more than $80 million in visitor spending. Ghiorzi explained that they had the biggest fencing event in history earlier this month, with 63,000 competitors, showcasing the diversity of sports in the city. There have been so many different types of events than that one. Ghiorzi explained that the momentum isn’t stopping there; earlier this year, the city submitted more than a dozen bids to host the NCAA championship from 2026 to 2028. Columbus was approved to host the NCAA women’s basketball final four in 2027 and the U.S. Chess Center Championship in 2029. Ghiorzi said these big-ticket events will bring thousands of people to the city. Ghiorzi predicts that the MLS All-Star week coming to Columbus will add another $20 million to the visitors spending numbers and call this summer “the summer of soccer.” It continues on August 3rd when the top two Premier League teams, Manchester City Football Club and Chelsea Football Club, will face off at Ohio Stadium, where almost 80,000 people will attend.  By: Anna Hoffman Yahoo Sports #ColumbusOhio #JesseGhiorzi #OhioStadium #YahooSports #ManchesterCity #Chelsea  #MLS #MLSAllStar #soccer #finalfour #NCAAChampionshipbasketball  #NCAAChampionship #USChessChampionship  #LowercomField #USAFencingChampionship

At panel in Cleveland, experts argue public financing of sports stadiums do not yield economic benefits. A panel discussion hosted by City of Cleveland - City Hall Councilman Brian Kay featured experts who argued that using Cleveland tax dollars to build a new Cleveland Browns stadium would not significantly benefit the city. The proposal, backed by Jimmy Haslam, whose net worth is approximately $8 billion, would require Cleveland taxpayers, with a median income of around $25,000, to foot the bill for a $1-$2.5 billion stadium renovation. This stark contrast in wealth distribution has raised serious concerns about the proposal's fairness, highlighting the urgency and importance of the issue. On average, only 15% of attendees live in Cleveland for a Browns game. According to reports from Cleveland Scene, most game attendees don’t even live in Cuyahoga County. Panelist Ken Sillman suggested that most Browns fans are more interested in a team competing for a playoff spot than a luxury stadium. The financing of a new stadium should reflect that. The Browns, a beloved and integral part of Cleveland's identity, annually sell out their season tickets, a testament to their popularity, with an 8,000-person wait list for the season tickets.  By: Jena Thomas The Land #ClevelandBrowns #stadium  #taxpayers #taxdollars #Forbes #TheLand #Clevelandpanel  #economicbenefits #sportsstadium  #newstadium
