Financial difficulties began to surface in the 2002–03 season. Batistuta was loaned to Inter mid-season to save money on his high wages and Cafu was released in June. In 2003–04, the signing of Cristian Chivu (who had originally agreed to sign in July 2003) was only completed in September 2003 with the aid of guarantees from other companies, and a sum of €30 million had to be deposited with the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) as guarantee money in order to register for the 2003–04 season after the original guarantor SBC Spa came under investigation for falsifying documents. During the season, Franco Sensi reconstructed the structure of ownership and raised the capital. In November 2003, €37.5 million was injected by "Roma 2000" (the holding company, a subsidiary of Italpetroli, Sensi's flagship) to cover the half year loss and loss carried from the 2002–03 season. and again on 30 June 2004 for €44.57 million. Through the stock market, a further €19.850 million of new shares were issued, and at the year end, the share capital was €19.878 million, which was unchanged as of 2011.
