This season

13 points from 11 games; expected finish 14.8. Value in each end-of-season outcome, with FCV's simulated probability:

Promoted£2.6m · 7%
Stays£3.2m · 82%
Relegated£2.1m · 11%

If promoted, the model assumes the club has to invest to compete and may go straight back down; the promoted value allows for both.

How the value is built

Revenue approach: forward revenue of £3.2m × adjusted multiple 0.90x = £2.9m.

Asset approach: realisable squad value, stadium (if owned) and training ground = £3.3m.

The two are blended with a weight set by division, then adjusted by the club's desirability premium of +2.8%, giving £3.2m if the club stays in League Two. The live value weights each season outcome by its probability. Full methodology.

Questions

Enterprise value is £3.0m. After net debt of £13.3m shown in the latest filed accounts, the indicative equity value (what a buyer would pay for the shares) is about -£10.3m. Owner loans are often written off or restructured in a sale, so the final price depends on the debt agreed in a deal.

How is Northampton Town's value calculated?

FCV blends a revenue approach (forward revenue of £3.2m × an adjusted multiple of 0.9x) with a realisable-asset approach (squad, stadium and training ground, £3.3m), then weights the values if the club is promoted, stays or is relegated by probabilities from a 20,000-run season simulation.
