Transurban Corporate Report FY25 Financial statements
Section B: Notes to the Group financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025
B17 Maintenance provision The Group’s service concession arrangements include certain obligations to maintain the publicly owned roads (concession intangible assets) it operates and in some cases the concession intangible assets it designed and constructed. These maintenance obligations may include: • obligations for routine or minor maintenance over the life of the concession intangible asset, for which costs are expensed as incurred; and • major maintenance, remediation and handover obligations for which the Group recognises a maintenance provision reflecting its present obligation under the concession deeds. Maintenance provision accounting policy The maintenance provision is included in the financial statements at the present value of expected future payments. The calculations to discount these amounts to their present value are based on the estimated timing and profile of expected expenditure.

KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE AND JUDGEMENT The maintenance provision reflects the Group’s best estimate of the costs that are expected to be incurred in meeting its obligations (based on information available at the reporting date) and reflects how and when the maintenance obligations under the concession deeds will be met under its asset management programs. Given the length of the service concession arrangements, uncertainty arises in estimating the costs expected to be incurred in the future. The Group periodically reassesses the estimate of its present obligation, which includes the results of routine inspections performed over the condition of the concession intangible assets. In addition, the Group assesses whether it has sole responsibility for the maintenance obligations or whether the obligations are the responsibility of other parties. To the extent the Group believes other parties are responsible for the maintenance activities, it may initiate claims on those parties. These assessments inform the timing and extent of planned future maintenance activities, notwithstanding the provision recorded at reporting date continues to capture the Group's maintenance obligations under the concession deeds.
