A word from our Chairman

JOHN MURRAY OAM Chairman

Well, what a rollercoaster year it has been.

But if we can reflect on the positives of the past year, the shining light has been our staff and management team. Every single team member has been incredibly loyal and passionate about keeping our venues open, and our patrons safe and happy. We have used the pandemic experience to reassess our organisation and its operations, and have been able to lay some really good foundations for the next 50 years, and that’s all because of the people we have working at our clubs.

The industry-wide shutdown in March 2020 was something nobody could have ever predicted and the uncertainty in the months that followed, was one of the biggest challenges our organisation has ever faced. Not knowing if our clubs would stay open; watching coronavirus case numbers rise and fall; and making important decisions knowing that the outcome could I would especially like to acknowledge the change in an instant. hard work, commitment and resilience of CEO Mark Condi, Executive General Manager Our clubs weathered the storm brilliantly Michael Clancy, CFO Rod Dearsley and their though, and our members and guests have management teams, who have led our team with been incredibly supportive of the changes we unwavering dedication to our club’s mission to have implemented to ensure their safety and ‘Make a Difference’. wellbeing. Our clubs are not the same venues we knew Understandably, it was a devastating blow when before coronavirus but we have adapted to greater Sydney was plunged into lockdown this new normal, and will continue to serve and again in the final weeks of June 2021, and our support our community as best we can. clubs were forced to close. Our employees were stood down again and we entered the new financial year battling that feeling of uncertainty yet again.

shining light has been our staff and management team

WELCOME TO OUR NEWEST BOARD MEMBER! In March 2021, we welcomed our newest Board member, Clare Pearson. Clare has extensive experience in the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Director in the not-for-profit sector, and is the current CEO of the Little Wings charity. She is a qualified psychologist and her passion is child protection with a focus on the human trafficking and disability industries. Her work in this area inspired her to author a book, Threads of Hope, which shines a light on survivors of human trafficking. Clare is a strong believer in the power of people and our ability to enact meaningful and significant change on a local and global level. This is one of the qualities we found incredibly appealing when discussing her appointment to our Board. Clare has been an active and vocal part of Board meetings since her arrival and it’s been fantastic to see the positive impact she is having on our organisation. Annual Report 2020/21

CEO Report I would like to begin by saying how incredibly proud I am of our team, our Board and all of our associated sport and community groups. Together, we are navigating the uncertainty of a once-in-a- lifetime pandemic and will no doubt continue to do so for some time, while always remaining true to our mission to Make A Difference. I’ll admit the past two years have been the most challenging of my 30-year career at Bankstown Sports. It began with a major cost-cutting exercise in 2019, which resulted in an overhaul of our operations, including a staff restructure. Then COVID hit, and we were forced to close all of our clubs and stand down almost our entire employee roster, with no guarantee of when we would reopen. But, as they say – what goes down must come up, and the day we were able to reopen our venues in June 2020, was definitely one of the best days of my career. During the months that followed, we reached some major milestones with new developments at our venues, and we had some fantastic achievements within our team. We welcomed Advanced Health Medical Centre, Macquarie Heart Bankstown, Mindwise Health and Wellbeing, and Amcal Pharmacy to the Flinders Centre.

MARK CONDI CEO

We opened Al Aseel and Helmut’s Haus at Bankstown Sports, we introduced Burger Box at Birrong Sports, and Smokin’ Acres has become so popular it now supplies smoked meats to several of our venues, as well as take-away packages for self-catered parties. We renovated the former Bankstown Sports administration offices to create new community meeting rooms for our associated sport and community groups to utilise. And perhaps, the icing on the cake has been the completion of the Lady Banks Rooftop Bar on Level 10 of the Flinders Centre. Due to a second industry-wide lockdown in June 2021 due to COVID, we were unable to celebrate the Grand Opening of the venue as planned. The most recent lockdown has been another huge blow for our industry but we will continue to support our community as best we can.

“ Michael has been with the Bankstown Sports Group for 22 years” MICHAEL CLANCY Executive General Manager

Leadership transition It is timely to announce plans for the next phase of leadership for the Bankstown Sports Group. After 30 years with our organisation, I have decided that we need to start building our senior management team, and share some of the responsibility, allowing me to focus on the big picture and deliver our 10-year plan. Executive General Manager, Michael Clancy, has been endorsed by the Board of Directors to lead Bankstown Sports Club, and I couldn’t think of a better person to take over the reins. Michael has been with the Bankstown Sports Group for 22 years, having started his career as a useful, collecting glasses and cleaning ashtrays. He has been the General Manager of our associated venues for the last few years, and is across the operations of all of our clubs. Through the COVID shutdown, Michael assisted with the closure of our venues and was the sounding board for me when I needed to implement many of the changes we have in place today. I wish Michael all the best as he takes on this exciting new challenge, and I’m confident we have the right executive team in place to support him.

Annual Report 2020/21

Reflecting on Covid Reflecting on the events of 2020-21, some of our leaders share the lessons learned during the COVID shutdowns, and how these have impacted our organisation.

MARK CONDI

CEO

“COVID has been such a horrible time for so many people. But if we look at the positives, it has facilitated some changes that may never have happened had we not had the shutdown. The first closure in 2020 made us look at every aspect of our operation from a completely different perspective. We are now the most efficient organisation we’ve ever been and it means we’re able to plan for some incredible developments in the years to come. The pandemic hasn’t changed the path we were on, but it’s certainly sped it up”.

JOHN MURRAY OAM

Chairman

“Our staff have been so loyal and that says a lot about our management team and the Board. They stuck with us. We have been able to start fresh and lay some really good foundations for the next 50 years, and that’s all because of the people we have working here. The shutdowns we’ve experienced have been pretty traumatic and the constant feeling of the unknown is terrible, but I know we will come back from it. It feels like we’re rising from the ashes and we’re on the right path for the future”.

ROD DEARSLEY

Chief Financial Officer

“The shutdowns have made us stop and take a good look at our business and assess what was important. We now pay much closer attention to the return on investment that we’re getting from everything we do. We question everything to make sure it aligns with our values and is in the best interests of our business”.

BRIAN DICKINSON

Culture Consultant

“The culture values now shape every single thing we do here at the club. Whether it’s internal or memberfacing, it’s all the same key messaging. These values are non-negotiable for us”.

MICHAEL CLANCY

Executive General Manager

“The shutdowns have been a massive learning experience for everyone. They really brought out the best in people and showed how close we all are as a team here. Operationally, we now run so much more efficiently and the way we do things makes sense. During the first lockdown, we realised we hadn’t reviewed a lot of areas in the organisation for a really long time, and we had just been doing things because it’s the way they had always been done. COVID has forced us to look at new ways of doing things”. Annual Report 2020/21

Annual Report 2020/21

These became the club’s new Culture Values that would lead a new, collaborative approach to our operations that every single staff member could be a part of. These Values now shape every single thing we do at the club.

OUR TEAM Department rebrand

FROM HUMAN RESOURCES TO PEOPLE & CULTURE The COVID pandemic made it very clear that our people and culture are what defines us, and sets us apart from our competitors. This has driven a renewed focus to support and empower our people and to provide an environment where high performance thrives.

Our People and Culture team are bringing a strategic approach to improving the overall employee experience, creating structures for better governance, and a commitment to partner with all other areas of the business.

Learning & development We revised our approach to training to create better pathways for our employees to further their careers with us. Rather than outsourcing our training courses, our senior management team now holds ‘Masterclass’ sessions in-house, to discuss real-time problems and issues faced in our venues.

regulations and health guidelines, ensuring the health and safety of our members and guests. With the increased skill development of our employees, our managers and executive team feel they are better supported, and our customers receive a better customer experience.

All employees have also undertaken COVID training to ensure they are across all government

Staff welfare

Communication

We made a change to rosters to improve the work/life balance of our employees. By moving the start and finish times for overnight shifts to be more accommodating to sleep patterns and family routines, we have had less last minute shift cancellations and better performance by team members, which has improved the overall operation of the club.

CEO Mark Condi and members of the executive team hold regular information sessions via YouTube to update staff on operational changes and new developments within the organisation. This proved highly effective during the COVID lockdown, when the team was unable to meet face-to-face.

Recruitment

Performance & management

We have improved and streamlined our recruitment process so it directly aligns with our Culture Values. Rather than looking for specific skills in potential employees, we look for personality traits.

We have simplified the reporting structure for each department to ensure there are clear and direct lines to each manager, while the performance review process has also been overhauled. Staff members are able to engage their manager in an informal chat to discuss dayto-day issues, on top of more frequent formal performance reviews.

Skills can be taught to the right people. Our People & Culture Department have also updated the Onboarding and Probation Review procedures to provide a better experience for all employees.

FEATURE One of the most exciting developments to take shape over the past 12 months has been the Lady Banks Rooftop Bar. Boasting 360-degree panoramic views that capture the impressive Sydney skyline to the Blue Mountains, the venue is the cherry on the top of the Flinders Centre Bankstown. The name Lady Banks was inspired by Lady Dorothea Banks, wife of botanist and Bankstown namesake, Sir Joseph Banks. The venue’s design, led by Pony Design Co, seamlessly balances both summer and winter aspects to create a multi-seasonal sanctuary, with a younger demographic in mind. Lady Banks Rooftop Bar will open under the steerage of Italian-born Francesco Motta, who will be joined by up and coming Head Chef, Sarah Hanslow, whose impressive culinary skill have earned her a well-respected reputation within the hospitality industry. From concept to construction, and through to delivery, Bankstown Sports has made a conscious effort to source local materials and services for the Lady Banks Rooftop Bar, with the majority of appointed suppliers headquartered in New South Wales or Victoria. There has also been a focus on recruiting staff from the local area.

Operations MEMBER KIOSK

In order to follow the NSW Health guidelines when we reopened after the March 2020 shutdown, a major upgrade of the Bankstown Sports Club sign-in process was required. The decision was made to only allow members into the club so that we would have the required personal data if COVID authorities requested it. This meant an overhaul of our member kiosks. These kiosks helped our membership numbers increase by 60,000 to a total of 120,000 members. Since then, a newer version of the kiosk has been developed which will provide a safe and efficient way for our guests to enter the club. There will also be a special line for our app users.

RESPONSIBLE GAMING POLICY

In 2021, we introduced our new Responsible Gaming Policy for staff at each of our venues. The program trains employees so they are better equipped to identify people who may have a gambling problem and need assistance. This program has the potential to become the mandatory standard training requirement for all staff who work in gaming areas across NSW. Bankstown Sports is proud to be the first club in the state to have all staff complete the course. Another responsible gaming initiative introduced this year was facial recognition at entrances to our gaming area. This system works has helped us to identify many people who had previously self excluded.

GAMING FLOOR FOOD SERVICE

A new initiative that’s been introduced as a result of the COVID pandemic and subsequent social distancing requirements is a new ordering service for the gaming floor, to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our employees, members and guests. Patrons can now order food and drinks direct from their machines, which has reduced face-to-face contact with staff.

We have significantly increased cleaning at all venues to incorporate regular COVID deep cleans.

FLINDERS CENTRE The vision for the Flinders Centre Bankstown has always been to provide A-grade commercial office and retail space for businesses that will benefit the local community. A medical centre had always been part of the plan and we were delighted to see that piece of the puzzle fall into place this year, with the opening of Advanced Health Medical Centre on the ground floor. That set the wheels in motion to expand the health offering and Macquarie Heart Bankstown signed soon after, followed by Amcal Pharmacy and Mindwise Health & Wellbeing. This new health hub compliments the tenants we have leasing the upper floors of the office tower which include the Little Wings charity, as well as businesses in the legal and banking sectors.

TOTAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO LOCAL SPORT AND COMMUNITY GROUPS: (CASH & IN-KIND)

It has been a challenging year for our local sporting teams and community groups who, like the hospitality industry, continue to navigate the uncertainty of the COVID pandemic. Community sport was shut down in early 2020 before resuming in July 2020 with new health and safety measures in place. But the second COVID wave in mid-2021 saw it ground to a halt yet again. The ClubGRANTS program was temporarily paused during the shutdown in 2020 too.

Highlights THREE ATHLETES FROM OUR ASSOCIATED SPORTING CLUBS QUALIFIED FOR THE 2021 TOKYO OLYMPICS.

JESSICA HULL Jessica Hull from the Bankstown Track Project was named Athletics Australia Female Able-bodied Athlete of the Year 2020. The 24-year-old broke three Australian records in the 1,500m, 3,000m and 5,000m events.

JYE EDWARDS Jye Edwards from the Bankstown Track Project produced one of the best performances in BSAC history to win the Australian Track & Field 1500m Championship 2020.

EDWARD TRIPPAS Edward Trippas from the Bankstown Sports Athletics Club obliterated the Olympic qualifying time for the 3000m Steeplechase to qualify for the Tokyo Games just two and a half hours before the qualification cut off time.

COMMUNITY New community rooms As part of our commitment to providing a safe and accessible meeting place for our community, Bankstown Sports created new multi-purpose meetings rooms on Level 1 of the club, replacing the former administration offices.

These rooms are available for hire by local community groups and feature projectors, tables, chairs, a self-service kitchen and a special disability bathroom.

Supporting our community Bankstown Sports has provided funding to Bankstown City Aged Care (BCAC) for over 50 years to improve the quality of life for residents living with dementia.

These life-changing sessions offer non-verbal residents the opportunity to experience humour and joy, and enhance communication with staff and families.

Despite the impact of COVID on our operations, Bankstown Sports prioritized support to BCAC in 2020 to allow the Music Therapy and Elder Clown Programs to continue.

Contribution: $70,000

Kookaburra walking track In early 2020, upgrades to the walking track through the Ted Horwood Reserve Precinct were completed. This project was a joint venture between Hills Shire Council, Baulkham Hills Football Club and other sporting teams that use

OUR CONTRIBUTIONS Bankstown Cricket Oval In November 2020, Bankstown Sports announced the commitment of $1.5M in funding to contribute to Stage 1 of the Bankstown District Cricket Club’s community development master plan, which will focus on the upgrade of the Bankstown Memorial Oval Cricket Ground.

Bankstown Sports and the Bankstown District Cricket Club have enjoyed a strong association spanning five decades, and are aligned in the vision to develop Bankstown into a destination for both elite athletes, and the broader community.

Working in collaboration with Canterbury Bankstown Council, the first phase of the project will be an upgrade of the Mark & Steve Waugh Pavilion, to improve the female amenities and disability access, and to update facilities for our younger community members.

While subject to further funding, its hoped Stage 1 will be complete and operational in time for the 2022 cricket season, with further developments planned to transform the memorial oval to a world class facility.

Bankstown Sports CEO Mark Condi says the facilities at the oval are quite dated. “The Mark and Steve Waugh pavilion was built by returned servicemen after World War II. The original building does not cater for female cricketers nor does it provide facilities for people who may have a disability, so we thought it was fitting that our contribution goes towards rebuilding this amazing building to cater for everyone”.

Little Wings In December 2020, Bankstown Sports committed to $500,000 in funding support to long-term charitable partner, Little Wings.

To date, Bankstown Sports has funded 101 missions, and also provides free rent for Little Wings HQ in Flinders Centre, Bankstown, as well as operational contributions of catering and tech support for various events.

The club was also given the exclusive status of ‘Foundation Partner’ in 2021, having stood by the organisation since its inception. The new funding commitment will pay for an additional 335 missions over the next five years. Little Wings provides a professional, free, and safe flight and safe ground transport service for children from rural and regional New South Wales, allowing them to access specialized medical services and treatment in major centres. 24 \\

GAMING FLOOR DEVELOPMENTS Ensure the club is compliant with social distancing requirements, while still providing a comfortable experience for patrons We created a new gaming area in The Loft which allowed us to have compliant spacing on our main gaming floor, increasing both comfort and privacy levels for our patrons.

What did we want to achieve? What was the outcome? How has it impacted the business?

Bankstown Sports was able to retain all gaming machines and make better use of space around the club

Incubator ideas

This concept is the brainchild of Executive General Manager Michael Clancy, who wanted to encourage our employees to ‘think differently’, and then give them a sounding board for new ideas to improve operations and customer service at our venues.

OUR FLOOR STAFF ARE THE EYES AND EARS OF OUR BUSINESS AND ARE OFTEN BESTPLACED TO IDENTIFY PROBLEM AREAS, AND FIND SOLUTIONS FOR THEM. With the assistance of a manager, team members suggest their ideas using the Incubator Ideas Framework, outlining their execution strategy, the potential impact on the business and any associated risks. The proposal is then put to the executive team for discussion and review, and a time frame is set down for an outcome.

BIRRA PIAZZA

THE IDEA Create a signature beer for La Piazza

BUSINESS IMPACT ‘Surprise and delight’ our customers with a new product, exclusive to our venue

RISKS Minimal. Beer to be brewed in-house at Basement Brewhouse and marketed by the club’s marketing team

MEASURES OF SUCCESS Sales of Birra Piazza compared to other popular beers

Principal Activities The principal activities of the Club during the course of the financial year were the promotion of sport and games and the operation of a Licensed Club. There has been no significant change in the nature of these activities since the last report. d. Operating Results The Net Profit after Tax and Objectives for the year ended 30 June 2021 amounted to $20,813,892 ($2,824,466-2020 deficit), an increase of $23,638,358. This profit is after including, depreciation and impairment of non-current assets $12,734,721 ($16,239,402-2020) and income tax expense ($510,532) (($1,610,155) - 2020). The increase in Net Surplus after Tax and Objectives, is due to an increase in poker machine income in FY2021 and a reduction in costs both in labour and operational costs. During a significant part of the FY2021 year, the Club was operating under restrictions imposed by the NSW Government due to COVID-19.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 1. Corporate Information The financial statements of Bankstown District Sports Club Limited for the year ended 30 June 2021 were authorised for issue with a resolution of directors on 14th September 2021. The Club is incorporated and domiciled in Australia as a Company limited by guarantee. In accordance with the Constitution of the Club, every member of the Club undertakes to contribute an amount to $4 per member in the event of the winding up of the Club during the time that he or she is a member or within one year thereafter. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Club are described in the directors’ report. 2. Summary of significant accounting policies a. Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB), International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events, and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and they have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs, modified where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. This financial report has been prepared under the Going Concern concept. The club has been closed since 26 June 2021 due to the Greater Sydney Covid-19 lockdown imposed by the NSW Government and has recently been announced that the Clubs will be opening in October 2021. This has had a significant impact on the Clubs cash reserves but has received commitment from Westpac that they will support the Club through this period and will continue well after the re-opening. The financial performance from the year ended 30 June2021 has put the Club in the best position to get through this current lockdown period. b. Changes in Accounting Standards There are no changes to accounting standards during the year. c. C hanges in Accounting Policies There were no changes in accounting policies during the year. d. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. e. Income Tax In accordance with the concept of mutuality, income tax is liable on income derived from Annual Report 2020/21

// 37

non-members and other parties. The charge for current income tax is based on the surplus for the year, adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting, or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax liability is calculated at the tax rates they are expected to apply in the period when an asset is realised or a liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement, except where it relates to items that may be credited to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted against equity. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account, or which may be realised in the future, is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income tax legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. f. Employee Benefits Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. Employee provisions that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee provisions payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employees wage increases and the probability that the employee may not satisfy vesting requirements. Those cash outflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows attributable to employee provisions. g. Leases The company has adopted AASB 16 Leases and assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for shortterm leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets. Right-of-use asset The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to amortisation. The effect the adopting of AASB 16 Leases has seen assets at 30 June 2021 be $1,558,421 (2020 $1,605,897). 38 \\

Annual Report 2020/21

Lease liability At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. The effect the adopting of AASB 16 Leases has seen liabilities at 30June 2021 be $1,631,459 (2020 $1,666,734). Short term leases and leases of low-value assets The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of machinery and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low-value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. h. Comparative Figures Where required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year. i. Property, Plant and Equipment i.

ii.

iii. iv.

Property, Plant and Equipment are brought to account at cost, or at independent valuation where cost cannot be ascertained, less where applicable, any accumulated depreciation. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows, which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis, where as all other depreciable assets are on a diminishing value basis over their estimated lives. Buildings on leasehold land are written off on the consideration of the remaining term of the lease, likelihood of the lease being renewed, and the present cash generation ability of the building. Land and buildings are revalued by a professional independent valuer every three years. That valuation is shown in the notes to and forming part of the financial statements, but not the actual statement of financial position. In the earlier years of the Company, there was a regular revaluation of real estate being land and buildings and the revaluation was expressed in the statement of Annual Report 2020/21

// 39

financial position. That policy ceased in 1986. Due to the time periods when such revaluations occurred it appears impossible to fully apply AASB116: Property, Plant and Equipment, whereby such assets are to be reduced back to their original cost. The departure from this standard is considered to have an immaterial effect. v. In this year, as in previous years, the Company at 30 June has had considerable building works under construction. Advice is received annually from the Company’s quantity surveyors, Kinlay Grinham Casey Burne as to completed works and that are still under construction at 30 June. The quantity surveyor further advises as to completed works in respect of dividing costs between buildings, plant and equipment and repairs. vi. When real estate is purchased the acquisition cost is divided between land and buildings. The land value is determined by a recent Valuer Generals Valuation and the balance of the purchase price is allocated to buildings. If a property is acquired for possible redevelopment in the near to medium term then the acquisition cost is directed to Land only. vii. Depreciation rates for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of fixed assets Depreciation rate Buildings 1-10% Poker Machines 21% Motor Vehicles 18.5% Other Plant and Equipment 1.5 - 40% Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are recognised in the profit and loss in the period in which they arise. viii. The potential capital gains tax on the disposal of applicable land and buildings and any other assets subject to capital gain tax has not been taken into account. j. Intangibles - Poker Machine Entitlements The Directors believe that the value shown in respect of poker machine entitlements is based on an active market at 30.6.21, and accordingly the values are not impaired, and as such, entitlements have an indefinite life and amortisation need not be considered. Each poker machine licence is an effective cash generating unit. k. Revenue Trading revenue is recognised upon the delivery of goods and services to customers. Interest revenue is recognised at the earliest of receipt or being due and receivable. The profit and loss on disposal of assets is brought to account at the date an unconditional contract comes into being. Australian Accounting Standard AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers has been fully applied. The Club was in receipt of Job keeper as part of the Commonwealth Government Economic Stimulus, this was used to maintain employees on the payroll and passed on entirely to nominated employees. To this end we have not regarded such receipts as income but rather a reduction against expenditure obligation; refer Note 23 Employee Expenses. Rental income is brought to account i. when it’s received or it is receivable, or ii. where a rent free period is involved, the benefit of the entire lease is taken into account and is apportioned over the lease period, or iii. upfront receipt in relation to a signed lease is brought to account as income, over the lease period.

l. Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and at bank. m. Trade and Other Receivables Sales made on credit and due in 30 days are included in Trade Debtors at balance date net of a provision for amounts estimated to be uncollectible. The Company does not have any material risk in this area. Other debtors have been complying with their obligations on a timely basis to the extent that there is presently no material credit risk. n. Trade Creditors Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received whether or not billed to the Company. Trade accounts are normally settled within 30 days unless there are specific arrangements to the contrary. o. Bank Bill Facility The bank bill facility in current liabilities comprises the current portion of the Company’s bank bill repayment within one year. The bank bill facility is repayable in minimum quarterly instalments of $1,000,000. The Company does have the right to make additional reductions in principal. The bill bears interest at the bank’s interest rate plus a margin. The Company is required to submit to the bank an annual capital budget for approval. The part of interest that relates post 30 June is included as a prepayment. p. Subscription Income Members’ subscriptions, which are paid in respect of the coming years, are not brought to account as revenue in this financial year but expressed as unearned income (liability) in the statement of consolidated financial position. q. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Receivables and Payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or an item of the expense. r. Impairment of Assets At each reporting date the Company reviews the carrying value of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable of the assets, being the higher of the assets fair value less costs to sell, and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which that asset belongs. The following impairment write offs were recorded: Impairment of assets Buildings Plant and Equipment Total Revenue

The actual indebtedness at 30/6/21 was $66,315,932 ($73,175,434 - 2020). The interest rate as at 30th June was 2.26%, with the average for the year being 2.26% (In 2020 the interest rate at 30th June was 1.54% and the average for the year 1.61%). Annual Report 2020/21

// 47

In accordance with the finance agreement in place, the Bank has the right to give notice to the effect that all indebtedness will convert to a current liability. In the ordinary course of events this is not expected to occur. Westpac will support the Club through this Covid impacted period and provide an extension of the current facility. Bank indebtedness is made up of: Cash advance facility - 1 20,000,000 This facility has quarterly principal reductions of $1,000,000 commencing November 2018 and matures 15.11.2021 Cash advance facility - 2 40,000,000 This facility matures 15.11.2021 Cash advance facility - 3 3,000,000 This facility matures 15.11.2021 Cash advance facility - 4 7,500,000 This facility matures 15.11.2021 Cash advance facility - 5 3,500,000 This facility matured on 30.10.18 and then $2,581,453 became an equipment loan.

Financial Risk Exposure and Management The Company has two areas of exposure being interest and liquidity. The directors and management have addressed the area of interest rate rises by capping the maximum interest rate that may be charged on $30,000,000 of the present debt. Additionally, the company is not expecting interest rates to rise significantly in the short term and medium term. With respect to liquidity the Company has further developed its gaming capacity and broadened its income base with facilities such as the Brewhouse Bar, Lucky Chengs, La Piazza and the construction of a multi level commercial building - Flinders Centre, with the rooftop bar Lady Banks. The Company also has real estate that may be disposed of if liquidity demands. The Company has a cash flow budget which is continually monitored and updated. Apart from bank indebtedness other areas of financial risk are minimal. Sensitivity Analysis The Company has performed a sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to Interest Rate Risk at balance date. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in these risks. At date of this report, a stable low interest environment exists and is expected to continue. Interest Rate Risk Sensitivity Analysis At 30 June 2021, the effect on surplus and equity as a result of changes in the Interest Rate Risk, with all other variables remaining constant would be as follows: Change in surplus Increase in interest rate risk by 1% Decrease in interest rate risk by 1%

Asset write off / impairment Increase in interest rate risk by 1% Decrease in interest rate risk by 1%

I have also fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal controls as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, the matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report. My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, I exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsible to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of the internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of going concern basis accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. I am responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. I remain solely responsible for the audit opinion.

Annual Report 2020/21

Bankstown Sports Club would like to thank its members, corporate partners and associated sporting and community groups for their unwavering support through the COVID-19 pandemic. Our clubs – along with the rest of the hospitality sector – have faced unprecedented challenges throughout 2020 and 2021, which have threatened the very existence of our industry. Being forced to close our venues, stand down our staff, reopen with limited capacity and new social distancing requirements, and then weather the storm of a potential COVID outbreak at one of our restaurants, was an incredibly stressful and worrying time. But having our members gradually return when it was safe to dine in our restaurants and enjoy our facilities, gave us reassurance that our clubs would continue to thrive for many years to come. Things may never return to the normal we once knew, but with your continued support, our venues will continue to be a supportive hub for the local community.
