The New York Giants are exploring the sale of up to 10% of the team, potentially setting a record for an NFL franchise valuation. The team, valued at $7.3 billion by Forbes and $7.85 billion by CNBC, is one of the most valuable sports teams globally due to its history and the New York City market. The Mara and Tisch families, who each own 50% of the Giants, have hired Moelis & Co. to manage the sale process. This move follows the NFL’s recent policy change allowing private equity firms to buy up to 10% of teams. The Giants’ valuation is higher than the Philadelphia Eagles, who sold 8% of their team for $8.1 to $8.3 billion. Three private equity firms have already made similar investments in other NFL teams, with Arctos Partners and Ares Management acquiring 10% stakes in the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins, respectively.
