The ratio of the distribution of audiovisual rights (including both domestic and international) of Ligue 1 - that is, the ratio of the club which receives the most money compared to the one which receives the lowest amount - for the 2015-16 season was 3.8, indicated the LFP to News Tank Football on 12/10/2016. The LFP has chosen not to publish the 2015-16 summary table of the distribution of TV rights to the 20 clubs in Ligue 1, contrary to what the French league has done in previous seasons (see below).

€469m in audiovisual revenue was distributed among the 20 clubs in Ligue 1 for the 2015-16 season, a figure very similar to €467.9m distributed in 2014-15.

The distribution ratio was 3.82 for the 2014-15 season: Paris Saint-Germain, the 2014-15 French champions, received the largest share of TV revenues, with €45.5m. The club which received the lowest amount was FC Metz (the club, promoted for the 2014-15 season, finished 19th in the table and was therefore relegated back to Ligue 2 at end of the season), with €11.9m.
