A copy of the full financial report and auditor’s report will be provided to any member, free of charge, upon request. The discussion and analysis is provided to assist members in understanding the concise financial report. The discussions and analysis is based on Public Interest Advocacy Centre Limited’s financial statements and the information contained in the concise financial report has been derived from the full 2009 Financial Report of Public Interest Advocacy Centre Limited. Income Statement The company’s revenue increased from by $648,407 on the prior year or approximately 31% predominately due to increased grants and other contributions. Increased grants were mainly attributable to funding from the Public Purpose Fund and Legal Aid NSW. Management fees recovered from PILCH increased by $162,662 due to additional costs incurred by the company in relation to the expansion of PILCH’s operations and additional costs attributable to the termination of the management agreement as at 30 June 2009. As a result of the increased revenue base, the company also increased its level of expenditure by $597,856 or approximately 28%. The increase in expenditure is almost entirely attributable to increased employment costs. During the year, the company has been able to expand its existing program work in addition to the establishment of new programs. For the year ended 30 June 2009, the company recorded an overall operating surplus of $35,418 as compared to an operating loss in the prior year of $15,132. Balance Sheet As a result of the small operating surplus, the overall net asset position of the company has improved by approximately 6%. The company continues to hold high levels of cash reserves which to a large extent are offset by the corresponding amounts of unexpended grants. The company maintained appropriate and consistent levels of working capital at year end. There are no other notable movements or issues relating to the company’s financial position. Allens Arthur Robinson for its continuing support for the Indigenous Justice Progrram and for printing the newsletter of the Indigenous Justice Program, Talkin’ Justice Cash Flow Statement The company continues to generate positive cash flows from operating activities, however this decreased by $344,478 from the prior year. This decrease is largely attributable to increase in employment costs paid during the year. A small amount of the surplus operating cash flows was used to purchase additional plant and equipment for the company’s use. 61 PUBLIC INTEREST ADVOCACY CENTRE • ANNUAL REPORT 2008-2009
