LeBron James’ The SpringHill Company is reported to have lost almost $30 million in 2023

A recent report reveals that LeBron James’ media company, The SpringHill Company, reportedly suffered a major loss of nearly $30 million last year. The current pace means the company is losing millions this calendar year too.

Accordingly Bloombergthe company, which LeBron co-owns with his business partner Maverick Carter, has reportedly never made a profit since it was founded in 2020. The company lost $17 million in 2022 and $28 million in 2023. The losing streak is expected to continue until 2024.

“The entertainment market’s shift toward profitability in 2022/2023 brought rising costs, slower buyer decision-making and impacts from industry strikes, prompting us to rebalance, including writing off underperforming projects, to position ourselves for future growth,” said Carter, who serves as chief, the SpringHill executive said via email. He added that the company is expected to beat forecasts this year.

As LeBron began operating outside of the sports world and into the media world, the company named after the apartment complex in Akron, Ohio where LeBron grew up was born.

Before founding the media company, LeBron and Carter had their brand UNINTERRUPTED. The company produced the talk show “The Shop” and other productions (television shows and films), some with athletes from various sports. They also sold clothing and merchandise and ran a marketing department. These are now under the umbrella of the SpringHill Company.

The company’s production arm produced “Space Jam” and the Netflix docuseries “Starting 5.” While LeBron is still on the basketball court trying to win another championship and extend his Hall of Fame career, Carter is making sure the business continues until his partner gives up basketball for good.

“We built this business with LeBron, not around him,” Carter said. He stated that LeBron “remains deeply involved in advancing the vision and mission he helped create and is more actively focused on specific passion projects.”
