This is the Annual Operational Plan Progress and Quarterly Financial Report. It contains the Quarterly Financial Report stating the progress that has been made in relation to Council's budget, and also contains the Annual Operational Plan Progress Report which is a written assessment of Council's progress towards implementing the 2020-21 Annual Operational Plan (Annual Plan).
The Quarterly Financial Report has been prepared to show the approved budget against the year to date results, while the Annual Operational Plan Progress Report records variances in delivery of the Annual Plan. In addition, this report gives an overview of the commercial operations and financial wellbeing of Council's business activities.
This report shows the financial performance of Council in three separate sections: Section 1 — Council results (including the business activities) Section 2 — Program results (Council results excluding business activities) Section 3 — Business activity results.
This report has been prepared according to Australian Accounting Standards and using figures from Council's accounting systems, which closed on 26 March 2021.
From 1 July 2020, Council applied the new accounting standard AASB 1059 Service Concession Arrangements: Grantors with comparative information restated as required by the new accounting standard. The significant impact is that Council now recognises assets and liabilities for its service concession arrangements. Comparative information has been restated as required by the new accounting standard.
To meet the requirements of the City of Brisbane Regulation 2012, the Annual Operational Plan Progress report has been presented both as a separate report and as part of this report.
The Second Budget Review figures have been used for the approved annual budget 2020-21 in this report.
Amounts included in this report are rounded to the nearest thousand ($000) unless otherwise stated. Amounts may not add to the correct subtotals or totals due to rounding.
Some activities of Transport for Brisbane, Field Services and City Projects Office operate in programs other than the business activities program and these are reported in Section 2. The remaining activities of Transport for Brisbane, Field Services and City Projects Office are reported in Section 3. As a commercialised business, City Parking is reported separately in Section 3. City Parking forms part of the Infrastructure for Brisbane program in Section 2.
Reference in this document to Urban Utilities refers to the trading name used by the Central SEQ Distributor-Retailer Authority. Council holds participating rights in this statutory body.
Detailed explanations are contained in this report for service variances of more than $200,000.
Permanent and timing differences are classified with reference to the budget position for the total service.
A permanent difference is defined as a current variance that: — is not offset by other variances within the same service budget, and — will result in a periodic budget review submission.
For the purpose of the Annual Operational Plan Progress and Quarterly Financial Report, a permanent difference will only relate to the total service budget.
Differences not expected to give rise to permanent differences at the end of the financial year are classified as timing differences.
All differences in the final Annual Operational Plan Progress and Quarterly Financial Report for each year are considered permanent.

Council results Section 1 Brisbane City Council Overview of the financial statements
For the period ended March 2021
Ratios Council's performance for the period ended 26 March 2021 against the key financial ratios and targets:
Actual Actual Ratio Target Target met March 2021 March 2020
Interest coverage <10% 4.69% Yes 4.74% Debt servicing/total income <33% 11.05% Yes 10.98% Net debt/total income <150% 99.25% Yes 97.27% Working capital (plus working capital facility >1 1.51 Yes 2.00* and variable rate loan facility) Total assets/total liabilities >3 6.10 Yes 6.13* Average debt maturity <15 years 11.2 years Yes 14 years
* Based on June 2020 balances. These ratios are indicative of effective financial management. Results within targets indicate that financial risks are being managed effectively.
The interest coverage ratio refers to net interest expense on debt service/total income (excluding capital donations, contributions, grants, subsidies and other revenue). The debt servicing to total income ratio provides an indication of Council's capacity to service its outstanding debt. The net debt to total income ratio provides an indication of Council's borrowing ability.
The working capital ratio (current assets plus working capital facility and variable rate loan facility/current liabilities) provides an indication of Council's ability to fund current liabilities.
