The Company has an $8.0 million (2022: $8.0 million) cash advance facility with Westpac expiring 31 December 2024, that is secured by a General Security over all of the Company’s existing and future assets and undertakings. The facility is also secured by a guarantee and indemnity issued by the AFL expiring 31 January 2025. The average interest rate on cash advanced was 4.38% (2022: 1.58%). The amount drawn at 31 October 2023 was $8 million (2022: $8 million)
They can carry debt like any other business. The Suns did have a 1.59m loan with NAB, this has been replaced with a 1.5m dollar loan from the AFL. The Giants have a 9.9m loan from the AFL.GWS and Giants cannot carry debt, they are free for all paid organisation year in year out.
