Introduction & Methodology CAPITAL INVESTMENT, TEXAS ATHLETICS OPERATIONS, & VISITOR SPENDING In order to gain a full evaluation of the impact of Texas Athletics, an analysis of capital investments made by Texas Athletics, on-going Texas Athletics operations, and visitor spending was conducted. The total economic impact of Texas Athletics is defined by the sum of these three expenditure categories. Capital Investment Texas Athletics Operations Visitor Spending TOTAL ECONOMIC OUTPUT Capital Investment: Over the past 20 years, Texas Athletics has invested more than $465 million in the Austin economy through the building and renovation of athletics facilities. The construction and expansion of athletics facilities will generate additional economic impacts to the region. One such impact would be the increase in employment that would be necessary to cover the maintenance of those new and updated facilities. Texas Athletics Operations: Operational expenses for the 2013 2014 academic year were provided to AngelouEconomics by Texas Athletics and their partners. Only spending captured within the region of analysis, Austin and Texas, is included in the model. Texas Athletics Program Revenues 2013 2014 Operating Budgets Football $112,508,162 Men s & Women s Basketball $16,618,227 Texas Relays/Track & Field $345,000 / $884,388 Frank Erwin Center $18,556,268 All Other Sports $10,732,450 Total $159,644,495 Source: Texas Athletics Texas Athletics Economic Impact 4

Introduction & Methodology Visitor Spending: Visitor spending includes the spending of out-of-town fans as they attended 2013 2014 events. Such spending includes hotel costs, restaurants, automobile expenses, shopping, and entertainment. These figures were modeled by multiplying the number of out-of-town visitors by the average spending per person. In 2013, F1 weekend was the same weekend that Texas Athletics hosted Oklahoma State at Darrell K Royal Stadium. Hotel prices for F1 weekend are 2.5 times higher than on a normal weekend. The average expenditures for the Oklahoma State game were adjusted to reflect the increased hotel prices.

Introduction & Methodology Total hotel room stays are computed applying the average of 2.5 per room to the total out-of-town attendance. Hotel Night Stays by Venue Total Annual Football 193,846 Basketball 19,687 Texas Relays/UIL 22,385 Frank Erwin Center 87,717 All Other Sports 27,921 Total 351,556 Sources: AngelouEconomics, Texas Athletics Visitor spending totaled $152.3 million, which serves as the input for the visitor spending model. The total economic benefit of visitor spending will be much higher as the direct spending creates additional impacts to the local economy. AUSTIN AND TEXAS MODEL This report presents two models for the economic impact of Texas Athletics: the Austin model and the Texas model. The Austin model analyzes the impact of operation expenses and visitor expenditures in the Austin region. The Austin region is defined by the 5 county area, including Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson Counties. The second model measures the impact that Texas Athletics has on Texas. The Texas impacts include all impacts that occur outside of the Austin region but within the state. This accounts for all away games, including the 2013 Valero Alamo Bowl in San Antonio as well as the AT&T Red River Showdown in Dallas. Texas Athletics Economic Impact 6

Introduction & Methodology WHAT IS AN ECONOMIC IMPACT The total economic impact of Texas Athletics is derived through direct spending by the department as well as expenditures by visitors. Money spent by either party on goods or services becomes revenue for local businesses. These businesses spend their new revenue to acquire employees and goods necessary to fulfill orders, thus placing the money back into the local economy. This snowball spending effect is referred to by economists as the Multiplier Effect. The multiplier effect is made up of the direct, indirect, and induced impacts. AngelouEconomics utilized the IMPLAN Input-Output Model to calculate the effect that direct spending had on the Austin and Texas economies. Direct Limited to the effects in the local economy that occur as a direct result from Texas Athletics. Indirect Includes increases to sales, incomes, and jobs in business sectors that support or supply Texas Athletics. Induced The household spending patterns of employees through all business sectors that experience increased earnings as a result of Texas Athletics. Source: Implan Texas Athletics Economic Impact 7

Impact of Texas Relays/Track & Field ANNUAL IMPACT OF TEXAS RELAYS The Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays, named after and started by the legendary University of Texas Track & Field coach, is a yearly event held by the University of Texas. The event is one of the largest outdoor track meets in the country, attracting more than 6,500 athletes to the Austin area. Texas Relays attracts nearly 40,000 spectators annually. Approximately 250 volunteer officials travel from outside of the region. Average length of stay was 3 days and 2 nights. In recent years, Texas Relays has evolved and taken on a broader scope as more of a cultural event. A number of outside groups have begun hosting network and development events during the Texas Relays weekend. This includes a parade organized by the NAACP. Several years ago, the Texas Relays attracted the Urban Music Festival, a Saturday concert at Auditorium Shores, as an extra attraction for attendees. While events such as these have a large monetary impact, they also provide a clear benefit for the Austin community by fostering diversity education. Texas Athletics Economic Impact 25

Additional Impacts IMPACT OF TEXAS SPORTS ON THE UNIVERSITY The University of Texas Athletics Department is an extension of the university s brand. Through sports, the department strives to expand the university s presence by embodying its principles in excellence. Resources committed to athletics help the university assist student-athletes in achieving their goals. Their accomplishments, in turn, help define the university s image, unify the student body, and introduce future students to The University of Texas. Texas Athletics Economic Impact 31

Additional Impacts IMPACT OF THE LONGHORN NETWORK The Longhorn Network launched on Aug. 26, 2011, as a partnership between ESPN, The University of Texas, and IMG College. IMG College owns the multi-media rights to UT sports and for the Longhorn Network. Under the agreement between the three parties, ESPN will pay The University of Texas an annual rights fee totaling $300 million over 20 years, 83% of which will go to the University of Texas. LHN annually broadcasts more than 200 live University of Texas events. The network currently employs 60 full-time positions in Austin. Since 50% of LHN revenues have been allocated to academics, funds gained from the partnership have helped the university create seven new endowed chairs. $1.5 million was used to create The Simons Chair in Mathematics and Electrical and Computer Engineering which has been appointed to renowned mathematician and engineer Francois Baccelli. In the 2013 2014 academic year, the network reached 10 million homes nationwide. The network s presence on cable TV helps expand the reach of The University of Texas brand. It serves not only as an athletics recruitment tool but also as an academic one, giving potential students an early glimpse of the university. A primary goal of the network has been to increase viewership of sports programs not usually featured on cable programming. Currently, the network broadcasts over 20 different sporting events, giving student athletes outside of basketball and football a chance to shine. Texas Athletics Economic Impact 32

Additional Impacts MEDIA REACH In the 2013 2014 academic year, media for Texas Athletics events generated more than $110 million in value.

Additional Impacts IMPACT OF TEXAS SPORTS ON ALUMNI RETENTION Texas Athletics, particularly football, plays an important and positive role in alumni giving. Select suites and other premium seats at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, which account for more than a third of available seats, require donations to the university beyond the cost of admission. For each football game, 10,000 15,000 alumni will visit the alumni center. That number can reach 20,000 for high profile games. There are 140 alumni chapters across the U.S. where alumni meet and socialize, usually over televised sporting events. 66 of those chapters are in Texas, which has an impact of its own. There are roughly 480,000 alumni. About 380,000 of those alumni live in Texas. 103,000 are members of Texas Exes. Academic studies published in the National Bureau of Economic Research have found that football success increases a college's alumni donations and improves the reputation of the university and the quality of its applicants. Alumni donations, in turn, help maintain the high quality of Texas Athletics, with donations comprising more than one-third of Texas Athletics' budget. Texas Athletics Economic Impact 34

Additional Impacts IMPACT OF TEXAS SPORTS ON STUDENT JOBS Student jobs provide university students with an opportunity to take the skills they learn in the classroom and apply them to real world scenarios.

All other Texas Athletics sports employed 42 people, with soccer being the largest employer. 377 students were employed in general sports operations. Of those positions, student services employed 203 students. SODEXO Sodexo Services Sports & Leisure division conducts all concessions at Texas Athletics events. Before contracting with Sodexo, the university was barely making a profit with concessions. Now concessions are booming; during the most recently completed academic year, Sodexo brought in $2.9 million commissions to the university. Other benefits that Sodexo bring to the university: 200-225 full- and part-time employees More than $500,000 raised for non-profits and the community Use of locally sourced vendors Texas Athletics Economic Impact 35

Appendix I. Definitions Multipliers - are unique to the region being studied and used to calculate the specific effects brought about by a change to a regional economy. For instance, a positive economic activity will have a multiplier greater than 1, which means that the economic impacts are greater than just the direct expenditures from the analyzed activity. Simply, a multiplier is the ratio that defines the total economic output created for each dollar invested. Jobs - are created through induced effects and are full-time equivalents. Tax Impacts - include federal, state, and local impacts and are included in the total economic output. Labor Income - includes all forms of employment income. This includes both wages and benefits.
