Method

Four key figures, 0 to 3 points each, equally weighted, 12 at most. Three points: target met. On equal points the fine score decides: within each band, the distance to the next threshold; above the target, the distance beyond it with decreasing weight; at most 4 per key figure. Then the average of all seasons. Peer group: the clubs of the same league and season.

Wage ratio on the ÖFBL's total revenue, so lower than in Germany; total assets are equity plus debt. Subsidies from third parties are not on the balance sheet. Points are not licensing criteria of the leagues. Definitions: Data and method.
