Financial Summary
As a mission-driven nonprofit that does not receive government funding, the USOPC is committed to fiscal responsibility and financial transparency. Our primary purpose is to support athletes through direct funds or programs that support them both on and off the field of play.
The Olympic and Paralympic Games year operating surplus allows the USOPC to run a deficit in non-Games years and provides a consistent level of support for athletes during each year of the four-year, quadrennial budget cycle. Under that cycle, both revenue and expenses, which have a direct impact on supporting Team USA athletes, generally increase in Games years versus non-Games years.
In 2024, the USOPC and U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Foundation (USOPF) consolidated financial statements and Form 990s show revenue of $497 million and expenses of $385 million, resulting in a surplus of $112 million for the year, consistent with a Summer Games year.

Thanks to the support the USOPC receives from NBC, our corporate partners and individual donors, the USOPC invested $234 million in athlete excellence programs in 2024. Overall spend in this area is up from 2023 due to Games-specific support for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games versus the 2023 Pan American and Parapan American Games. Athlete excellence, excluding Games-specific support, posted a 16% increase, primarily driven by an increase in grants to athletes and National Governing Bodies (NGBs), as well as continued investment in athlete well-being programs.
