By moving into their own arena this season, the ZSC Lions needed new structures and also more employees. Out of all these build-ups, a loss of CHF 5.1 million resulted in the past financial year. To cover the costs, their investors around president Walter Frey injected another CHF 14.1 million into the club by increasing the share capital.
The new era in their own arena has also brought some changes within their board of directors. Long-time members Peter Spuhler and Hans-Peter Schwald, as well as Barend Fruithof have left the board. CEO Peter Zahner and finance specialist Roger Kunz have been elected by the general assembly as new members of the board of directors.
