"The increase in turnover is a clear sign of BVB's earnings power," Watzke was quoted saying on "?FourFourTwo.
"We can still grow in national and international TV marketing, but that always happens with our roots firmly in our mind. We will remain the club that we are.
"Ticket and catering prices will remain stable, they will only rise by the inflation rate at a maximum.
"Our next objective is to break the €400m mark. To achieve this, it is important to be one of the major players.
"Our sporting and financial footing is unparalleled in Borussia Dortmund's 107-year history."
The departures of Ilkay Gundogan to Manchester City, Henrikh Mkhitaryan to Manchester United and Mats Hummels to rivals Bayern Munich were not included as the deals were not processed until after the 1 July deadline, confirmed Watzke.
Dortmund kick-off their Bundesliga campaign on 27 August at home against FC Mainz as they prepare to battle rivals Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title having not won the championship shield since 2012 when Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was still in charge.
