Juventus Seek Shareholder Approval for €250m Capital Increase

Juventus are set to seek shareholder approval for a capital increase worth up to €250 million as the club moves to reinforce its financial position and fund its next phase of development.

The proposal will be put to shareholders at a meeting scheduled for November 3. Juventus’ board wants authority under Article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code to issue new paid-in capital, potentially in several instalments, up to the €250 million ceiling including any share premium.

Exor, Juventus’ majority owner with a 65.4 per cent holding, has already advanced €60 million against its expected contribution. The payment is intended to support the club’s equity while the formal capital operation is prepared.

Exor prepared to cover unsubscribed shares

The holding company has committed to take up its full entitlement in the proposed increase. Exor has also indicated that it is ready to subscribe for any shares left untaken by other shareholders or outside investors, providing the operation with substantial backing.

Juventus intend to complete the increase by the end of 2026, subject to market conditions and shareholder authorisation. The club views the funding as central to establishing a more sustainable platform while retaining the capacity to compete at the highest level.

Funding needs on and off the pitch

Around 45 to 50 per cent of the maximum amount is expected to be required for financial needs during the current year and the following financial year. The wider funds could support sporting competitiveness, international brand growth and compliance with UEFA and FIGC financial rules.

The plan also leaves room for investment in strategic property assets. Modernisation work at the Allianz Stadium is among the projects being considered by the club.

Juventus reported consolidated equity of €11.5 million at the end of June 2026, down from €13.2 million previously. The proposed operation would follow a €97.8 million capital increase completed in November 2025.

The new mandate would give Juventus access to a considerably larger financial buffer as the Turin club seeks to stabilise its accounts and plan beyond its immediate funding requirements.
