Notes to the financial statements

Basis of preparation

In the opinion of the directors, the Company is not publicly accountable. The financial statements are Tier 2 general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 . These financial statements comply with Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements.

Statement of compliance

Reporting entity

Canterbury League Club Limited ("the Company" or "the Club") is a company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The financial statements of the Company are as at and for the year ended 31 October 2018.

The Company is a not-for-profit entity and is primarily involved in the operation of registered clubs and the promotion of rugby league.

For the year ended 31 October 2018

The Company is a company limited by guarantee and without share capital. In accordance with the Constitution of the Company, every member of the Company undertakes to contribute an amount limited to $10 per member in the event of the winding up of the Company during the time that he or she is a member or within one year thereafter.

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for investment property which is measured at fair value.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 18 December 2018.

These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is also the Company’s functional currency.

Use of estimates and judgementsThe preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year are included in the following notes:

Going concern

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, and have been applied consistently by the Company.

The Company has the following categories of non-derivative financial assets:

Financial instruments

Significant accounting policies

Non-derivative financial assetsFinancial assets are recognised initially on the date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Company is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Company in the management of its short-term commitments.

Loans and receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses (see note 3(h)). Loans and receivables comprise cash and trade and other receivables and call deposits with maturities greater than three months from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value.

As at 31 October 2018, the Company had a net working capital deficiency of $9,906,363 (2017: $6,185,253 deficiency) and net assets of $182,387,562 (2017: $176,261,332). In addition, the Company recorded a net profit for the year of $6,126,230 (2017: $6,226,346) and positive operating cash flows of $12,663,244 (2017: $10,189,800).

The Company has completed the execution of the development masterplan to build a multi-storey car park and refurbish the existing facilities except for minor works on the Atrium Bar and Infinity Lounge. A consequence of this project is that excess operating cash flow has been utilised to fund the initial stages of the masterplan, resulting in the net working capital deficiency. The nature of the gaming industry is such that the Company generates significant cash flows on a short term basis, with limited working capital investment required. In addition to this, the Company has access to a $10,000,000 working capital facility with Westpac Banking Corporation and at 31 October 2018 $8,000,000 of this facility has been drawn down.

The Directors have prepared the next financial year's cash flow forecasts and are comfortable that the Company will be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. Accordingly, the Directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis in the belief that the Company will realise its assets and settle its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and for at least the amounts stated in the financial report.

(b)(i)

(ii) Subsequent costs Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Non-derivative financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings and trade and other payables.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in profit or loss.

Debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities are initially recognised on the date that they are originated. All other financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

Significant accounting policies (continued)

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Property, plant and equipmentRecognition and measurement

Loans and borrowings and trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these finanical liabilities are measured at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest rate.

Where the terms and conditions of borrowings are modified, the carrying amount is remeasured to fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount and fair value is recognised in equity.

Non-derivative financial liabilitiesFinancial instruments (continued)

Depreciation rates Depreciation methods• 2.50% Straight line• 7.5 - 66.67% Diminishing value• 20 - 40% Diminishing value

(c)

(d)

Significant accounting policies (continued)

When the use of a property changes such that it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.

Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value.

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not depreciated.

The depreciation methods and estimated depreciation rates for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Property, plant and equipment (continued)

BuildingsPlant and equipmentPoker machines

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.

Poker machine entitlementsIntangible assets

Poker machine entitlements have infinite useful lives given they have no expiry date. They are measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition and subsequently at fair value with any change therein recognised in profit or loss. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Investment property

Amortisation

Poker machine entitlements have indefinite useful lives as they have no expiry date. Accordingly, such intangible assets are not amortised but are systematically tested for impairment at each reporting date.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.

Other leases are classified as operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised in the Company’s statement of financial position.

InventoriesInventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the first-in first-out principle, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition.

Provisions

Leased assets

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost.

The Company operates a loyalty program where customers accumulate points for dollars spent. The provision represents the current estimate of future cash outflows that will result from future redemption of unredeemed points as at year end.

3(h)(i)

(ii) Non-financial assetsThe carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets, other than investment property, inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Indefinite life intangible assets are tested annually for impairment.

Impairment

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Significant accounting policies (continued)

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use, being the depreciated replacement cost of the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (a “cash-generating unit" or "CGU").

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

The Company considers evidence of impairment for receivables at both a specific asset and collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Short-term benefits

Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.

Revenue

Grant paymentsGrant payments made to Bulldogs Rugby League Club and other donees are recognised through profit or loss at the time the grants are awarded by the Company, thereby crystallising an obligation to make payment to the other parties.

Defined contribution plans

The Company’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits other than defined benefit plans is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on government bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations.

Other long-term employee benefits

Significant accounting policies (continued)

Impairment (continued)

Revenue from the sale of goods comprises revenue earned from the provision of food, beverage and other goods, and is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer.

Revenue from services rendered comprises revenue from gaming facilities together with other services provided to members and patrons of the Company, and is recognised through profit or loss when the services are provided. No revenue is recognised if there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due or the reliable measurement of costs incurred or to be incurred, there is risk of return of goods or there is continuing management involvement with the goods.

Non-financial assets (continued)

Significant accounting policies (continued)

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on loans and borrowings. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or productions of a qualifying asset are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets andliabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when theyreverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that could follow the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax

Deferred tax

Tax

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax ratesenacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.

Finance income comprises interest income on cash and cash equivalents. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.

An amalgamation reserve in members' funds is utilised for amalgamations with other registered clubs. The amount presented is equal to the accumulated fair values of the net assets of the clubs acquired. The individual assets and liabilities acquired are presented in the statement of financial position. This policy is effective for amalgamations occurring after 1 November 2010.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

Amalgamation reserve

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Deferred tax (continued)

Goods and services tax

The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (amended) provides that under the concept of mutuality, clubs are only liablefor income tax on income derived from non-members and from outside entities.

Tax exposure

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax the Company takes into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes and interest may be due. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgements about future events. New information may become available that causes the Company to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes totax liabilities will impact tax expense in the period that such a determination is made.

AASB 9 replaces the existing guidance in AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. AASB 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and derecognition of financial instruments from AASB 139.

AASB 9 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early adoption permitted.

The Company has considered the impact on it's financial instruments and financial assets and does not expect a material impact.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments (2014)

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with CustomersAASB 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including AASB 118 Revenue, AASB 111 Construction Contracts and AASB Interpretation 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes.

AASB 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early adoption permitted. Given the nature of the Company's material revenue streams are predominantly cash-based, and recognised at the point of sales, with limited residual performance obligation, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on it's financial statements.

AASB 16 LeasesAASB 16 removes the classification of leases as either operating lease or finance leases - for the lessee - effectivelytreating all leases as finance leases. Short-term leases (less than 12 months) and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers) are exempt from the lease accounting requirements. There are also changes in accounting over the life of the lease. In particular, companies will recognise a front-loaded pattern of expenses for most leases, even when they pay constant rentals.

AASB 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early adoption permitted where AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers is adopted at the same time.

The Company has limited arrangements which meet the definition of an operating lease and would require recognition under the new AASB 16 Leases Standard. The Company will continue to monitor the arrangements in place and any new arrangements entered into to ensure they are accounted for in accordance with the new accounting standard from the effective date.

New standards and interpretations not yet adoptedA number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 November 2018, and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Company are set out below. The Company does not plan to adopt these standards early.

Fair value measurement recognised in the Statement of Financial PositionThe fair value measurement disclosures use a three-tier value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in measuring fair values. The fair value hierarchy is comprised of the following levels:

• Level 1 – fair values measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments;• Level 2 – fair values measured using directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1; and• Level 3 – fair values measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The fair value of investment property was determined by external, independent property valuers, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. The fair value measurement for all of the investment properties has been categorised as a Level 2 fair value given the valuation methodology used by the valuer is the direct comparison approach.

Other transactions by the Company with Bulldogs Rugby Club include functions and in house dining charged to the Bulldogs Rugby Club amounting to $223,000 as at 31 October 2018 (2017: $154,000)
