FGCU receives an 8 percent royalty on the wholesale price — not retail price — of officially licensed merchandise, and splits that revenue with Licensing Resource Group. A T-shirt that sells for $20, for example, may only carry a wholesale price of $5, which would generate a royalty of 40 cents. LRG’s cut would be 14 cents, leaving just 26 cents for FGCU. For the period that ran Jan. 1 to March 31, royalties totaled $22,017 on $293,119 of wholesale sales, the vast majority coming from apparel sales.

So they tripled their take, but it is still a drop in the bucket.
