Part 4.1 Financial Summary
SUMMARY OF IGIS FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND RESOURCES FOR OUTCOMES
The office received an unqualified audit report from the Australian National Audit Office for its 2017-18 financial statements. A summary of our financial performance follows.
The office operated within available resources in 2017-18 and ended the year with a surplus of $3,664,131. The summary of financial performance is based on the original budget figures as published in the Portfolio Budget Statements 2017-18.
Appropriation funding levels in 2017-18 increased significantly with the office receiving additional departmental funding in the Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements (PAES) totalling $3,662,000 to implement recommendations of the 2017 Independent Intelligence Review which included an expansion of the office and a change in the office's jurisdiction. Other Income also increased following a reassessment of the value of resources received free of charge by the office. The increase in Other Income was matched by a corresponding increase in Supplier Expenses so there was no impact on the overall financial outcome.
In relation to expenditure, the most significant variance against original budget figures related to employee expenses ($60,554 overspent). This variance occurred due to an increase in staffing levels associated with the additional funding.
Net equity increased from $3,161,158 in 2016-17 to $18,406,446 in 2017-18. Movements in equity included a $3,664,131 increase in retained surplus. Contributed Equity also increased from $528,126 in 2016-17 to $12,109,283 in 2017-18. Movements in Contributed Equity included capital funding of $11,585,000.

TRENDS IN FINANCE
Significant changes to the finances of the office during 2017-18 included:
- a $3,701,000 increase in Revenue from Government
- a $254,112 increase in Employee expenses arising largely due to recruitment activity associated with the additional funding and expansion of the office
- a $108,447 increase in Supplier expenses. Increases in expenditure included $7,479 in stationery expenses, $36,766 in security vetting expenses, $33,488 in consultant's fees and $47,872 in notional rent charge
- an $11,884 increase in Property, Plant and Equipment following the purchase of office equipment. This was offset by a $25,254 increase in depreciation expenses. Revised useful lives were applied to assets expected to be disposed of when the office relocates in early 2019
- a $317,242 decrease in Other Payables largely due to outstanding redundancy payments in the previous year and a decrease in reimbursements to home agencies for seconded staff
- a $475,841 increase in Employee Provisions due to the increasing staff numbers associated with the additional funding and the changing profile of the staff
