THE TOP LINE
Raise the roof (and the revenue)
By 2031, more NFL stadiums will have a roof than not. Turns out the weather was the biggest scheduling conflict all along. Three more things worth weighing in today’s CRO.ticker:
ONE BIG IDEA
Every business feeds the others. Fanatics’ new Amex card pays out in FanCash across its merchandise, collectibles and sportsbook, and CFO Glenn Schiffman says the card and the other businesses can “return the favor” for each other.
ONE NUMBER
~80%
of revenue leaders lost deals their systems said were on track, per a SciFin survey of 500.
ONE QUOTE
“The bar to make us interested is really high. ... It has to be a complete package.”
— Louise Young, Chief Race Promotion Officer, Formula 1, on future host cities

MORE THAN ONE GAME
Fanatics launches an Amex card that pays in FanCash
Fanatics has opened a waitlist for a co-branded American Express credit card featuring Topps trading card designs of more than 500 athletes. The card charges no annual fee and carries a 19.74% to 34.24% APR, rewarding users with "FanCash" to spend across the company's merchandise, collectibles, and sportsbook platforms. Purchases generate 8% back on the Fanatics app and 2% on external transactions, while also providing entry into a contest to win $100K in annual spending credits, per The Athletic’s Larry Holder, who notes company executives reversed an initial plan to tie a hobby shop's new product allocation to its credit card sign-up metrics following pushback from store owners at the April Topps Industry Conference. Fanatics CFO Glenn Schiffman:
“This credit card can make our other businesses better, and the other businesses can return the favor. I think we’re at that point of scale where this could work and work extremely well and be additive and be at a point where we’re not taking away from any of the businesses.”
— Glenn Schiffman, CFO, Fanatics
Covered NFL stadiums will soon outnumber open-air ones
By 2031, covered venues will outnumber open-air stadiums in the NFL 16 to 14 as franchises seek to maximize year-round event revenue, according to SBJ's Bret McCormick. The next wave begins with the Titans' $2.1B Nissan Stadium opening in 2027 and continues with planned covered facilities for the Browns (2029), Commanders (2030), Chiefs (2031), and Broncos (2031), alongside a $1.4B canopy renovation for the Jaguars. The Titans, Browns, Chiefs, and Commanders will receive a combined $6.3B in public funding to build the indoor venues, which allow host cities to bid on Super Bowls and NCAA Final Fours. McCormick notes the architectural shift relies on lightweight ETFE material—which weighs just one pound per square foot compared to 15 pounds for metal roofs—to eliminate weather-related event cancellations after industry surveys showed 71% of organizers suffered at least three weather disruptions over the past five years. Chiefs President Mark Donovan:
“It’s this broad-based business, and a venue like this is an accelerator. When we think about the fact it’s a fixed-roof building, we think about it across all our businesses. How can each one of these businesses benefit from that?”
— Mark Donovan, President, Kansas City Chiefs
A roof changes everything underneath it
More from McCormick on enclosed NFL stadiums, as he points out they force franchises to adopt arena-style design elements to support a year-round event calendar. Architect David Manica, who is designing venues for the Titans, Chiefs, and Broncos, noted that covered facilities must incorporate expansive loading docks, end zone pocket stages, and dedicated performer compounds to attract top-tier tours. At Nissan Stadium, developers added concessions and restrooms directly on the event level for concertgoers with floor tickets. The transition away from open-air designs also complicates playing surface decisions. While State Farm Stadium and Allegiant Stadium use slide-out grass trays, surrounding mixed-use real estate developments prevent that approach for the next wave of venues. SGL Project Development Director Lee Collier:
“We can do grass inside the building. For me, the bigger question is not the grass inside the building; it’s how do you then make the systems around the grass flexible enough to accommodate sport and non-sport events?”
— Lee Collier, Project Development Director, SGL
D1.EXTRA · SPECIAL FEATURE
The End of the Growth Era: The new economics of higher education, and what they may mean for athletics
For decades, colleges answered almost every strategic problem by growing. That answer is running out. About one in seven colleges lost money over the past decade, and in 2024 the top tier of public FBS schools spent more on athletics than they brought in for the first time: $13.06B in expenses against $13.02B in revenue. College.town's executive briefing draws on Jeff Selingo's The State of Higher Education and the U.S. Department of Education's latest affordability report, and looks at what it all may mean for athletic departments. A few highlights…
➤ Richer media deals were absorbed by higher spending. The Big Ten ran $21M in the red, the SEC $22M and the ACC $43M, while the Mountain West finished $48M ahead.
➤ The House revenue-sharing cap started at $20.5M per school and rises 4% a year. Some departments are funding it with private-equity joint ventures and loans that borrow against future revenue.
Plus, the numbers behind the briefing: Higher Ed in 25 Charts »
THE BUSINESS OF PRESTIGE
AC Milan returns to Adidas for €500M+
AC Milan will reunite with Adidas on a 10-year kit sponsorship worth more than €500M, taking effect in the summer of 2028, according to Gazzetta's Luca Bianchin. The €50M annual agreement ends the club's current partnership with Puma, which originally paid €14M per season in 2018 before climbing to €30M during a 2022 renewal. Bianchin points out the deal represents the second major commercial injection in recent days for owner RedBird Capital following a joint naming rights agreement with Inter Milan and Generali for the teams' new shared stadium. The move also strengthens Adidas's grip on the Italian market, topping Juventus's 10-year, €408M extension and outpacing the eight-year, €30M annual pact Inter signed with Nike in 2023.
F1 gets creative with sponsor categories
Formula 1 commercial departments are carving out ultra-specific sponsorship categories to accommodate heavy corporate demand, with recent examples including technology partnerships between Audi and Elastic, Racing Bulls and Introl, and Williams and Klaviyo, per SBJ's David Kushnan. As the sport crowns 20-year-old Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli as the 2026 world champion, the league continues to target major urban centers for expansion following its debut street circuit event in Madrid. F1 Chief Race Promotion Officer Louise Young on the baseline requirements for prospective host cities:
“The bar to make us interested is really high. It’s no longer just about, ‘Does someone have a track and would those facilities be suitable to race?’ It’s also no longer just about having the newest facility. It has to be a complete package. So, destinations who can talk to us about support from government; destinations that can showcase culture, as Madrid has. Destinations that have a ready-made operation centre so that you can easily move between airport, hotels and city.”
— Louise Young, Chief Race Promotion Officer, Formula 1
Ascot’s CEO takes notes from American sports
Ascot Racecourse CEO Fliss Barnard sat down with the Leaders Worth Knowing Podcast to discuss the five-year growth plan for the historic venue and the logistical challenges of staffing Royal Ascot. Key takeaways…
➤ Drawing commercial inspiration from American sports leagues: "I look a lot to America, to the States, and I always have. ... Because so many of their sports are so doggedly and unashamedly commercial... I often look to that market for what might be next, but also how American consumers are looking at their sports product and how they're adapting in order to feed that engine."
➤ On prioritizing the customer experience over immediate profit margins: "The best way to describe it, we're a profit making not-for-profit. So everything that we make goes back into the business. We don't have any shareholders... We always know that we would have to overinvest in employees. ... And we would always do that rather than making sure that we made an extra 10,000 pounds."
➤ On funding the prize pot through self-generated revenue: "When you are looking at the British market, we are funded by either the levy, which is the government a little bit, or we eat what we kill, so whatever we make ourselves. ... that then drives further revenue, which feeds the prize pot, make sure we have the best sport."

Bigger tech stacks are hiding deal risk
A survey of 500 revenue leaders by software company SciFin indicates that expanding tech stacks are creating inefficiencies and obscuring deal statuses, according to Revenue Brew's Tricia Crimmins. The report found executives spend more than six hours per week in meetings to determine deal progress, while an average of 7.6 team members devote at least half their time to manual data-revenue work. Less than 25% of respondents noted that new tools solved distinct problems, with the majority admitting to purchasing technology to signal innovation or match competitors. This disconnect, dubbed the "revenue context gap," resulted in nearly 80% of respondents losing deals that systems indicated were on track and almost 75% losing customers. Ultimately, revenue leaders indicated to SciFin that when clients and deals are at risk, they need “earlier warning, more time to act, a clearer understanding of performance, and less need to move between systems.”
Why Gen Z and Millennials are booking cruises
Younger travelers are choosing cruise vacations as cost-effective alternatives to traditional travel amid rising housing and debt pressures, according to Bloomberg's Brittany Chang. Royal Caribbean Group Chief Financial Officer Naftali Holtz noted that overall passenger volume has increased 45% since 2019, with Millennials and Generation Z travelers nearly doubling to account for half of all guests by the second quarter of 2026. Virgin Voyages reported a similar demographic shift, with guests under age 45 growing from 32% of its customer base in 2021-2022 to 45% today. The financial appeal is driven by base fares that average $75 per night across mass-market lines like Royal Caribbean and Carnival, compared to the $174 average nightly cost of a U.S. hotel room reported by Hotels.com. Travel adviser Allie Thompson estimates that younger demographics comprise roughly half of her Royal Caribbean bookings as they seek highly programmed, all-inclusive experiences:
“Those are all things that bring back your childhood. The millennial generation is very adrenaline-driven. They don’t just want a vacation. They want an experience.”
— Allie Thompson, Travel Adviser
ChatGPT will show brands how often they’re mentioned
Digiday’s Krystal Scanlon reports OpenAI is testing an analytics dashboard inside an unreleased Business Hub that allows marketers to track their brand's visibility and click-through rates within ChatGPT answers. Marketplace Pulse founder Juozas Kaziukėnas explains the beta feature requires users to claim their business—such as by linking a Shopify store—to unlock daily impression data and a customizable business agent. While the dashboard omits the specific user prompts and competitor rankings currently sold by generative engine optimization vendors like Profound and Adthena, the organic visibility tracking mirrors Google's historical playbook for converting search metrics into ad sales. The impending tool arrives as OpenAI rapidly scales its self-serve advertising platform, which reached a $1B annualized run rate in less than 200 days and has attracted over 100,000 advertisers across 89 countries since testing began in February.
Ogilvy’s AI turns one shoot into 50 assets
Advertising firm Ogilvy has launched Echo, a proprietary artificial intelligence platform designed to generate 30 to 50 media-ready assets from a single production shoot, up from the traditional 8 to 10. Marketing Dive’s Chris Kelly explains the platform builds on a partnership between parent company WPP and Creative Artists Agency and uses The CAA Vault to capture and license digital likenesses of athletes and celebrities within the $25B annual global advertising production market. The system reduces the average cost-per-asset by 65% to 75% while mandating talent consent and inserting a visible AI-recreation watermark on cleared consumer-facing material. Kelly also notes a recent survey of 1,200 respondents indicated that explicit talent approval strengthened ad appeal for 76% of consumers. Ogilvy Global Chief Innovation Officer Carol Reed on how the technology expands creative boundaries beyond simple cost reduction:
“I don’t want people to feel like we’re cutting corners. It’s about ideally unlocking impossible things. Being able to have more ideas come out of it and not just variations is really exciting to me… We can land more creative ideas in impossible situations.”
— Carol Reed, Global Chief Innovation Officer, Ogilvy
