FaZe Clan rapporterte økonomisk suksess

Recently, the CEO of FaZe Clan, Lee Trink, shared the financial success of the esports club, where he spoke about what the organization managed to achieve success, and what the club did not live up to expectations.

In general, revenue for 2021 and part of 2022 turned out to be less than what the representatives of the club expected, but it is still impossible to call the past year a complete failure.

According to forecasts made in September 2021 following the business combination, FaZe Clan expected to receive $218,000,000 over the next year. In fact, their revenue was much lower than expected and amounted to only $100,200,000. This was due to higher-than-expected payouts from BRPM's public shareholders and higher costs resulting from the business combination.

Now FaZe Clan has less money to implement their expected growth strategies and some things they planned will no longer be available.

In the new realities, FaZe representatives expect that a similar story will repeat itself in 2022, and therefore the management expects revenue to be 20% less than what was originally planned. Personnel costs will exceed the expected minimum by 30%. This was facilitated by the accelerated pace of hiring of managers and other similar employees. By the way, the new CFO receives at least $375,000 a year.

To summarize in several theses, the state of affairs of FaZe Clan is as follows:

• FaZe Clan's profit after the merger with BRPM was $218,000,000 instead of the expected $100,000,000
• The cost of maintaining the administrative department was higher than expected.
• Profit next year will be 20% less than what was originally predicted
