The money

Its IRS Form 990 for the year to April 2025, which takes in this game, reports $120.6 million in revenue, $108.3 million of it from rose bowl game, and $118.6 million in expenses. Its best-paid, chief executive officer David Eads, was paid $482,000. The largest payments it lists that year:
From the organization’s IRS Form 990, via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer and the IRS’s e-file data. Payments are the grants it lists on Schedule I of that return. See every filing at ProPublica (EIN 95-1725190).
