  • Sports Industry Considerations
    0 Houlihan Lokey Sports Industry Update Dear Clients and Friends, Houlihan Lokey is pleased to present its Sports Industry Summer 2020 Overview. We have included industry insights and select transaction announcements to help you stay ahead in the dynamic and constantly evolving sports sector. Driven by growing national and local media rights deals, digital platforms, and increased sponsorship monetization, recent years have witnessed several blockbuster acquisitions in the major U.S. professional sports leagues. We expect activity to remain high, especially for minority ownership stakes, for the foreseeable future as franchise assets remain scarce and institutional buyers enter the marketplace with increasing demand. In recent months, COVID-19 has sent shock waves through markets globally and captured the attention of the world. Since mid-February, COVID-19 has caused significant market disruption that is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. The sports industry has been particularly impacted with the cancellation of live sporting events, forcing sports leagues and franchises to reevaluate their business models for the duration of the pandemic. In recent weeks, leagues have begun to resume competition in empty stadiums, which has profound financial implications on teams’ operations and financial outlooks. We hope you find this update informative and that it serves as a valuable resource to you in staying abreast of the market. If there is additional content you would find useful for future updates, please don’t hesitate to call

Tisch Illumination Fund, and the Harris Family Charitable Foundation for their support of this report and Project Play: Harlem THE VISION An East Harlem in which all children have the opportunity to be active through sports WELCOME East Harlem is a historic community, rooted in a culture of strong collaboration and action, ranging from innova- tion in youth development through sports and family engagement to confronting disparate public health barriers associated with dense urban areas faced with historical disinvestment and inequity. Working with local leaders, the Aspen Institute aims to help stakeholders build healthier children and neighbor- hoods through sports. The specific focus of Project Play: Harlem is a three-square mile area in East Harlem (see map on page 4), where the Mount Sinai Health System, Harris Family Charitable Foundation, and Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Fund have partnered with the Aspen Institute in an effort to improve youth wellness through increased access to and participation in quality sport programs. This report offers an assessment of the current state of play for kids and sports in the area. Our work is anchored in the notion that all stakeholders will benefit if all youth are provided access to a quality sport experience. We know this from the body of research that has emerged over the past decade establishing the myriad benefits of physical activity.
