Revenue of almost £100m for the three months up to 30 September 2013, which is up from £76.3m from the same quarter in 2012.
Commerical revenue has also risen to almost £60m, a 39% increase. While broadcast revenue rose by 41% to £19.3m.
Ed Woodward, the new chief executive of the club has said the following. ""We are pleased to have achieved another record first quarter, driven by the strength of our commercial business and increased broadcasting revenues. Our unique approach to the commercial business will continue to drive future growth.
"We are also excited by the continuing rise in the value of sports content, evidenced, amongst other things, by the recently announced BT deal for the UK rights to broadcast the Champions League and Europa League matches for three seasons from 2015/16. This deal represents a meaningful increase over the current arrangement, which should translate into higher broadcasting revenues for the participating clubs."
