The debt - including that transferred from the purchase - will no doubt have been accruing interest also
PWKH also mentioned management fees (although i am not sure the accounts supported the theory)
so even if they acquired the club for nothing - the original balance sheet may have been
goodwill 30m
old debt (-30m)
they then write off the goodwill, and claim that is part of the losses ( albeit they have not really lost the money)
Hedge funds are usually only paid a success fee. Something like 1-2% of the profit made. The fee is usually paid by the funds - not the company owned by the funds.
There have in previous financial reports been no indication that sisu have taken any fee from the club or the group.
