Corinthians ended the first part of the 2026 season with a revenue of close to R$80 million considering only box office revenue and sports awards. The value was reached before the break in the calendar for the World Cup and reinforces the importance of the team's performance on and off the field throughout the semester.

Adding the gains obtained from tickets and bonuses for campaigns in the competitions played so far, the club accumulated R$79.3 million. The tendency is for the amount to increase in the second half of the year, as Timão continues to compete in the Copa do Brasil, Conmebol Libertadores and the Campeonato Brasileiro.

The main source of revenue was the presence of the fans. Corinthians' home games generated approximately R$45 million at the box office. The majority of this value was recorded in matches held at the Neo Química Arena, while one of the matches played at Vila Belmiro also contributed to the financial result.

Sports prizes represented around R$ 34.3 million to the black and white coffers. The value includes winning the Supercopa Rei, participating in the Campeonato Paulista and the campaigns carried out so far in the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores.

The biggest financial return came from the Supercopa Rei, a title that guaranteed Corinthians a prize pool of more than R$11 million. In the Copa do Brasil, the club has already guaranteed values for participation and classifications obtained in the initial stages. In the Libertadores, in addition to the quota for presence in the group stage, Timão received bonuses for victories achieved and for a place in the round of 16.

In addition to revenue directly linked to sporting performance, Corinthians also has income from sponsorship contracts, broadcasting rights and use of the Neo Química Arena for events and matches. Another factor that could positively impact the club's finances is the mid-year transfer window, a period in which athlete negotiations can generate new revenue.

Women's football also records millionaire fundraising

Corinthians women's football also presented relevant numbers in the first half of the year. As Brabas raised more than R$7.2 million, including prizes and box office revenue.

Unlike men's, most of the revenue came from sports campaigns. In total, Corinthians Feminino received around R$ 6.8 million in prizes thanks to the runner-up in the Copa das Campeãs, the campaign in the Supercopa do Brasil and the qualification for the Copa do Brasil Feminina.

The campaign in the Champions Cup was mainly responsible for the amount raised, followed by participation in the Super Cup and the bonuses won in the Copa do Brasil.

In relation to the box office, Brabas raised approximately R$ 439 thousand in matches played as home team. However, some of the games had operating costs that were higher than the revenue obtained from tickets. As a result, the net balance of the clashes recorded a negative result of close to R$97 thousand.

Despite this scenario, women's football continues to contribute to the season's numbers and maintains the expectation of increasing its revenue throughout the second semester, with the continuation of national and state competitions.
