Kroenke is founder of Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, the owner of the Los Angeles Rams football team. The Denver-based company also owns the National Basketball Association's Nuggets franchise and English soccer's Arsenal Football Club. Other assets include commercial property in North America and Europe.
Kroenke's fortune includes his ownership of the Los Angeles Rams, an NFL franchise. It's valued based on an August 2025 report by valuation consultants Sportico. Kroenke's assumed to own the whole franchise as no minority partners have been disclosed.
He also owns Arsenal Football Club, which is valued based on a May 2025 report by Sportico, as well as the Denver Nuggets, valued based on an October 2025 Sportico report.
Kroenke owns ranches comprising about 2.5 million acres in the US and Canada. They're valued using land value data compiled by USDA and Farm Credit Canada.
He holds commercial real estate through the Kroenke Group and THF Realty. Together, they own more than 300 properties, and the portfolio is valued net of debt.
Along with the Rams, Arsenal FC and the Denver Nuggets, Kroenke has interests in three other professional sports teams and one sports stadium through Denver-based Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. The values of the Colorado Avalanche (hockey) and Colorado Rapids (soccer) teams are based on reports by Sportico. He's assumed to own both teams outright because no other partners have been disclosed. The Colorado Mammoth indoor lacrosse team is excluded from this valuation as its value could not be determined.
A $3.3 billion liability is applied to reflect the total cost of acquiring sports assets, including a $571 million repayment made to the NFL after the Rams relocated to Los Angeles, as well as debt taken on to acquire real estate assets.
Ellen Moskowitz, a spokesperson for Kroenke, didn't respond to emailed requests for comment on the net worth calculation.
Stanley Kroenke is one of four children born to Alvin and Evelyn Kroenke, who owned a hardware store in Mora, Missouri. After finishing high school in Benton County, Kroenke enrolled in the University of Missouri, from which he graduated with a master's degree in business administration in 1973. That same year, he met nursing student and Wal-Mart heir Ann Walton during a vacation in Aspen, Colorado. They married in 1974.
A year later, Kroenke turned down a paid fellowship for a doctorate at the University of Missouri and took a job with retail developer Raul Walters, who'd built some of Wal-Mart's stores. He became Walters's partner in 1979, and the two developed more than 20 retail malls across the Midwest, many of them containing Wal-Mart stores. When Kroenke started his own real-estate development company in 1985, Wal-Mart remained one of his most important clients. He joined its board of directors in 1995, and stayed on until 2000.
He ventured into sports teams ownership in 1994, when he bought the Los Angeles Rams football team and moved them to St. Louis. He acquired pro hockey's Colorado Avalanche and the basketball's Denver Nuggets in 2000, the Colorado Mammoth lacrosse franchise in 2002, the Colorado Rapids soccer team in 2004 and a majority stake in the Arsenal soccer team in 2011.
