AS Roma

A.S. Roma was founded in 1927, the spring of in 1927, when Italo Foschi pushed for the merger of three previous Italian Football Championship clubs from the city of Rome: Roman FC, Fortitudo Pro Roma and SS Alba-Audace. SGS. Italo Foschi was a key Roman leader of the government National Fascist Party.

The reason for this merger was provide Italian football fans Italian capital a club to compete with the more powerful Northern Italian clubs of the time. The one significant Roman club to oppose against the union was Lazio due to the military intervention of General Vaccaro who was a member the club's executive and president of the Italian Football Federation. The three clubs that were founded were eliminated, however the fascist-affiliated FIGC placed bets on the potential that the team would have in order to provide a more prominent presence to Italy's capital city city of Italy and was granted a wild card to the Divisione Nazionale that was that is the Serie A forerunner. The club began its initial years in the Motovelodromo Appio stadium before shifting to the working class streets of Testaccio and built an all-wooden stadium Campo Testaccio; this was inaugurated the following November. The first season during which Roma was a major force was the championship of 1930-31 which saw the club finish in the second position ahead of Juventus. Capt. Attilio Ferraris, as well as Guido Masetti, Fulvio Bernardini and Rodolfo Volks, were the most important players of the time.

After a decline in league performance as well as the loss of important stars, Roma eventually rebuilt their team by adding goal scorers such as those of Argentine Enrique Guaita. Under the direction by Luigi Barbesino, the Roman club was close to winning their first championship in 1935-36, being just one point ahead of champions Bologna.

Roma has returned to the form they had been in throughout the latter part of the 1930s. Roma had an unanticipated title win during the 1941-42 season, getting their the first Scudetto title. The 18 goals that were scored by the local player Amedeo Amadei was crucial in the Alfred Schaffer-coached Roma team that won the championship. In the year 2000, Italy was involved in World War II and Roma were playing at the Stadio of the Partito Nazionale Fascista.

In the days following during the postwar period, Roma could not return to the league status they enjoyed in the beginning of the 1940s. Roma ended up in the lower tier of Serie A for five seasons in succession, finally succumbing to their first ever demotion in Serie B at the end of the 1950-51 campaign, about a decade after the team's championship win. Under the later Italy manager of the national team Giuseppe Viani, promotion straight back to Serie A was secured.

Following their return to Serie A, Roma managed to stabilize their status as a top half club again , with players such as Egisto Pandolfini Dino Da Costa and Dane Helge Bronee. Their most successful run of the period was under the direction by Englishman Jesse Carver, when in 1954-55 they finished as runners-up following Udinese who were originally second, were disqualified for corruption. While Roma weren't able to climb to the fourth spot in the decade that followed but they did manage to achieve a degree of success in the cup. Their first win beyond Italy was in the years 1960-61 when Roma took home the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup by defeating Birmingham City 4-2 in the finals. In the following year, Roma won their first Coppa Italia trophy in 1963-64 following a 1-0 win over Torino 1-1.

The club's lowest point was the 1964-65 season the time the manager Juan Carlos Lorenzo announced the club was not able to afford to pay their players, and it was likely to be able for a trip to Vicenza to play the next game. The club's supporters kept it going through a charity event held in the Sistine Theatre and bankruptcy was prevented by the election of a new president, Franco Evangelisti.

The 2nd Coppa Italia award was won in the years 1968-69 and was played within a smaller, league-like system. 16. Giacomo Losi set a Roma record for appearances in 1969, with more than 450 appearances across every competition, a record that would stand for 38 years.

Roma could add another trophy to their trophy collection in 1972 after a 3-1 win against Blackpool during the Anglo-Italian Cup. Through the 1970s, their appearance in the top tier of Serie A was sporadic. The highest position Roma was able to attain was third place in the years 1974-1975. Some notable players who played for the club in this time include the midfielders Giancarlo De Sisti as well as Francesco Rocca.

The beginning of a more prosperous era in the Roma's history of football was announced with another Coppa Italia win, when they beat Torino with penalties to take that edition of 1979-1980. Roma reached highs in the league, something they hadn't been to since the 1940s when they having a tense and controversial finish as the runners up to Juventus in the years 1980-81. The former Milan teammate Nils Liedholm was the team's manager that time along with players like Bruno Conti, Agostino Di Bartolomei, Roberto Pruzzo and Falcao.

The second Scudetto was not able to escape Roma for long. In 1982-83 the Roman team won the trophy once for the first time after 41 years with celebrations taking place in the capital city. The next campaign, Roma finished as runners-up in Italy and won a Coppa Italia title, they also placed runners-up in the European Cup final of 1984. In 1984, the European Cup final with Liverpool ended in a draw of 1-1 thanks to a goal by Pruzzo however Roma ultimately lost to Liverpool in the penalty shoot-out. Roma's run of success through the 1980s would end with a runners-up position in 1985-86 as well as winning the Coppa Italia triumph, knocking out Sampdoria with a score of 3-2.

Following that, a decline was observed with the League, with one of the few highs in the league from the next period was an overall third place finish in 1987-88. The beginning of the 1990s the club took part at an Italian-only UEFA Cup final, where they lost 2-1 against Internazionale during 1991. The following season they won their 7th Coppa Italia and ended runners-up to Sampdoria in the Supercoppa Italiana.

When you look at our results and the performance of our team clearly, this isn't working. He told me to be a believer and let him go about it as he wanted to.

This group was created through the merger of several smaller groups and was thought to be to be one of the more important in the development of European football. But by the time it was mid-1990s, CUCS had been usurped by rival factions and then was disbanded.

Since 1999, during Franco Sensi's period in charge, Associazione Sportiva Roma has been a listed Societa per azioni on Borsa Italiana. From 2004 until 2011 the From 2004 until 2011, the Roma's shareholdings are split between 67.1 percent in the hands of Compagnia Italpetroli SpA (the Sensi family holding; Banca di Roma later purchased 49% of Italpetroli as a result of restructuring debt) and 32.9 percent to other shareholders in the public sector.

Alongside Lazio as well as Juventus, Roma is one of three quoted Italian clubs. As per the Football Money League published by the consultants Deloitte In the season 2010-11, Roma was the 15th most profitable football club in the world, with an estimated income of EUR143.5 million.

The month of April, 2008 following many months of speculation George Soros was confirmed by Rosella Sensi, the CEO for Serie A team A.S. Roma, to bid for an acquisition. The bid for a takeover was repeatedly denied from those in the Sensi family members, and they prefer to keep its ownership of the club. On August 17, 2008, the chairman of the club and club owner Franco Sensi died following a long illness. his position as chairman for the team was subsequently given to the daughter of his Rosella.

Following the takeover in 2011, NEEP Roma Holding S.p.A. is the sole shareholder of the entire shares Sensi used to hold. NEEP is as a joint venture was owned through DiBenedetto AS Roma LLC (later changed its name AS Roma SPV, LLC) AS Roma SPV, LLC) and Unicredit in a 60-40 ratio between 2011 and 2013. The prior company had four real shareholders, in an equal ratio with the current Roma CEO Thomas R. DiBenedetto (2011-12). The takeover also triggered the possibility of a compulsory bid for shares from the public at large however, there were a few minority shareholders who were ready to trade their share. The compulsory bid resulted in NEEP owned 78.038 percent of shares in AS Roma (increased from 67.1 percent of Sensi). 1 August 2013 AS Roma's president, Roma and an individual of four American investors of AS Roma SPV, LLC, James Pallotta purchased an additional 9% share in NEEP Roma Holding through Unicredit (through Raptor Holdco LLC) in the event that Unicredit was unwilling to fully take part in the capital growth in NEEP by EUR120,000, which increased to the sum of EUR160,008,905 (excluding share premium). On April 4, 2014 Starwood Capital Group was also named AS Roma SPV's fifth shareholders. AS Roma SPV, as in addition to creating a strategic partnership with AS Roma SpA to develop real property around the stadium. The private investment company had been headed by Zsolt Kohalmi at AS Roma SPV, who was appointed on April 4, 2014 as a partner and the head of European acquisitions for the company. On the 11th of August, 2014 UniCredit purchased the remaining shares of NEEP (of 31 percent) to EUR33 million. This meant that AS Roma SPV LLC (91 percent) along with Raptor Holdco LLC (9%) were the sole holding company for intermediates in AS Roma SpA.

Following the re-capitalization process in 2003-04 Roma was able to achieve a brief period of financial self-sufficiency, which lasted until the time of the takeover in. The club had established an amortisation fund that was specifically based on Articolo 18-bis Legge, 91/1981 specifically for the bizarre transfers prior to the 2002-03 season (such for Davide Bombardini for EUR11 million during June 2002 following the player exchange that failed to work boosted performance in the 2001-02 season) and tax payments for 2002-03 was moved to a later date. For 2004 and 2005, Roma made a net profits of EUR10,091,689, was followed by EUR804,285 during 2005-06. The 2006-07 season saw the accounting method was changed to IFRS which meant that the results of 2005-06 was classified as a the net loss was EUR4,051,905; and the for the 2006-07 season, there was net income that was EUR10,135,539 (EUR14.011 million for the group). Furthermore that special fund (EUR80,189,123) was removed from the asset , and was used to fund equity in the same way in accordance with the plan, meaning that the Roma group was in deficit of EUR8.795 million at the end of June 2007. However, the club transferred its brand name to an affiliate, which helped made a profit on an additional financial statement that La Repubblica declared as "doping". The 2007/08 season saw Roma had a net revenue of EUR18,699,219. (EUR19 million in a group) But 2008-09 witnessed the decline in television and gate incomes and also the team finishing in sixth place at the bottom of Serie A, which saw Roma suffer a net loss of EUR1,894,330. (EUR1.56 million as an AS Roma collective) The gate and TV revenue further decreased in 2009-10 and resulted in the net loss being EUR21,917.292 (already increased through the sale of Alberto Aquilani; EUR22 million as the group) despite the success of their sports team (finishing in second position at the second place finish in 2010 and 2009). In addition, despite having the positive equity of the separate entity (EUR105,142,589) however, the AS Roma Group had a negative equity figure on its consolidating balance sheet that dropped between EUR8.8 millions to -EUR13.2 million. In the season of 2010-11, Roma was administrated by UniCredit because the Sensi family was unable to pay the bank, and the club was put up for sale and expecting to be in a quiet transfer window. With no profit from selling for the players, the club's net loss climbed to EUR30,589,137 (EUR30.778 million when it was a team) The new owners was already planning to re-capitalize the club following the compulsory purchase of the shares. The good news is that the TV revenue was raised from EUR75150,744 up to EUR78,041,642 as well as gate income grew from EUR23,821,218 to Euro31,017 179. This is due to the fact that Roma was a part of the the 2010-11 Champions League, which offset the effects on the collective contract that was signed by the Serie A. In 2011-12, the renewal of the squads and participation in the the 2011-12 UEFA Europa League had adversely affected the financial results that was why increased the capital by 50 million euros (in the form of an advance) was completely offset through the losses. The 2012-13 season was the involvement in the domestic leagues did not cause any harm to the revenue , but it also brought an increased gate income as well as a reduction in the wage bill, but Roma was unable to make it to break the threshold of profitability (EUR40.130 Million net loss within the accounts of the consolidated). NEEP Roma also re-capitalized AS Roma in advance for an additional EUR26,550,000 over the course of 2012-13. A capital increase of EUR100 millions for Roma has been announced the 25th of June 2014. However up to the 22nd of May, NEEP already injected EUR108 million into the club. The club is dependent on public subscriptions; over EUR8 million would be converted into the medium-long-term loans from shareholders instead of being share capital. Another capital increase was announced in the year 2018.

A joint venture with Roma controlled by Roma (37.5 percent), S.S. Lazio (37.5 percent) along with Parma F.C. (25 percent), Societa Diritti Sportivi S.r.l. was being liquidated from 2005. It was a joint venture of four soccer clubs that included Fiorentina. After the demise of Fiorentina however the two clubs, Roma and Lazio were able to increase their share ratio from 25 percent to 37.5 percentage. A different subsidiary is "Soccer S.A.S. di Brand Management S.r.l. " was an special-purpose company (SPV) which Roma was able to sell their trademark to their subsidiary in 2007. In February of 2015, a second SPV, "ASR Media and Sponsorship S.r.l" was put to secure the bank with a five-year facility worth EUR175 millions in the name of Goldman Sachs, for a period of three months Euribor (min. 0.75%) 6.25% spread (i.e. min. interest rate of 7% p.a. ).

in 2015 Inter as well as Roma were the two Italian clubs to be banned in 2015 by UEFA in 2015 for violating UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations and reached agreement to settle with UEFA. This was followed by Milan in the year 2018.
