Benfica SAD achieves profit of €19.1M

Record8 September 2026 at 22:02

Benfica SAD achieved a profit of 19.1 million euros, recording a positive result for the second consecutive financial year. This result represents a significant improvement compared to the previous years of financial difficulties that the club went through.

However, the profit obtained this season is lower than that of the previous financial year, which had stood at 34.4 million euros. This difference of 15.3 million euros shows a decrease in the financial results of the red-listed sports limited company.

This announcement comes in the context of the Benfica SAD financial report, the structure that manages Benfica's sporting and commercial activities, including mainly professional football. The positive numbers demonstrate the club's ability to return to profitability after a period of negative results.

The maintenance of consecutive profits, although at lower values than the previous season, indicates a sustained financial recovery trajectory for the Lisbon club, which continues to be one of the clubs with the highest revenue in Portugal.

Financial market: what are 'defensive stocks'?

In the CBN Dinheiro program, specialist Marcelo d'Agosto explains the concept of defensive stocks in response to a question from listener Guilherme. According to him, defensive stocks are securities from companies operating in already consolidated sectors of the economy, such as electric energy companies, which require high initial investments to build plants and transmission networks, but then have approximately constant costs and revenues. Because they depend mainly on operational efficiency, these companies are less impacted by external factors that affect the economy in general. Thus, defensive stocks are presented as an alternative for investors seeking lower volatility and greater predictability in financial results.
