Dunphy's Pepperwort Ltd. has filed new records that demonstrate that the company's 2023 earnings of €108,963 represent a 5% rise over the €103,595 profits for 2022.
Advertisers provide the podcast with money, and subscribers can pay €5 (ex VAT) every month.
Up to eight new episodes of the current affairs, sports and culture podcast are released every week. In these episodes, Dunphy and his former RTÉ football pundit colleague John Giles examine the most recent football outcomes.
According to Pepperwort's reports, the firm had accrued earnings of €258,205 at the end of December of last year, following two years of strong growth.
The company's cash funds climbed by about €110,000, from €161,100 to €270,749, during a busy year for the enterprise.
Dunphy has 50/50 ownership of the business with his spouse, Jane Gogan, the managing director. The total compensation paid to directors rose slightly from €65,077 to €72,719 in the previous year.
The Stand was started by the couple in November 2016.
The former Irish football international Dunphy's successful podcast endeavour is the most recent development in his extensive and fruitful media career. Dunphy will celebrate his 80th birthday in August of next year.
The second half of Dunphy's autobiography is presently being written; the first volume, The Rocky Road, chronicled his journey leading up to the 1990 World Cup. Dunphy stated in a press conference last month that “the next part will be funnier and lighter.”
The directors anticipate that the firm will have sufficient resources to sustain its operational existence for the foreseeable future, according to a note that is appended to the accounts.
Dunphy made the decision to voluntarily wound-up Festuca Ltd., his second media company, in 2022. The liquidator's final statement of account reveals that, after costs were deducted, €392,931 was available to be distributed to the company's stockholders.
