A filing at Companies House today signals additional investment of £46M in Everton Football Club, following the resolutions that were approved last month, allowing over 1 million new shares to be issued as required to secure additional equity in the club.
A return filed today shows the Allotment of Shares was made last month, indicating that 262,863 new shares have been issued – presumably to Roundhouse Capital, which is The Friedkin Group’s holding company for Everton Football Club. The amount paid for each share is £175, representing an investment or cash injection of £46M.
This amount is likely required to fund ongoing operations, including the substantial outgoings incurred during the transfer window, which has seen a net spend of £120M. The injection of cash also helps to ensure that Everton stay on the right side of the PSR threshold in terms of anticipated losses during the current financial year, 2025-26.
The allotment brings the total number of Everton shares outstanding to 1,884,650, and would nominally value the club at £330M, with the minority shareholders continuing to hold 7,969 shares in a dwindling proportion that represents just 0.42% of the overall stake in the club — down from 0.49% after TFG recapitalised the club following their takeover in December 2024.
