Yes, WNBA owners collectively lose money—about $40M in 2024, likely similar in 2025 despite revenue growth to ~$200M+. The NBA, owning ~42%, subsidizes via loans and shared resources. Operations are financed through media deals ($200M+/yr from 2026), expansion fees ($250M/team), ticket/merch sales, and partnerships. Losses may stem from investments like charters, but accounting tactics could exaggerate them for CBA leverage.
