The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 14 of the financial report. 

Operating and financial review 
Principal activities 

The  Company’s  principal  activity  during  the  course  of  the  financial  year  was  to  develop  its  novel  i-
body  platform  with  a  focus  on  its  lead  candidate  AD-114,  a  first-in  class  treatment  for  idiopathic 
pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other fibrotic diseases. 

Operating results 
The loss of the Company for the  year ended 30 June 2016, after accounting for income tax benefit, 
amounted  to  ($1,163,056)  (30  June  2015:  ($1,307,868)).  The  year  ended  30  June  2016  operating 
results are attributed to the following: 

•  Research and Development rebate: $738,046 (30 June 2015: $887,553); 
•  Cost of services $1,413,975 (30 June 2015: $1,712,080); and 
•  Employment benefit expense ($224,620) (30 June 2015: ($203,007)). 

Review of operations 
Summary 
At the General Meeting held on 18 January 2016, the shareholders approved the Company change its 
status from propriety limited to a limited company and change its name to AdAlta Limited.  The issued 
capital of the Company split on the basis of that every 1 share or option be split into 5.8168 shares or 
options at the General meeting held on 9 May 2016.  Considerable work was undertaken to prepare a 
prospectus  to  raise  a  minimum  of  $8,000,000  to  a  maximum  of  $10,000,000  and  to  make  an 
application to the ASX for admission to the official list. 

During  the  year,  the  Company  continued  to  develop  its  technology  platform  that  produces  unique 
compounds  known  as  i-bodies,  that  mimic  the  shape  of  shark  antibodies  and  engineers  their  key 
stability features into human proteins, for therapeutic intervention in disease. 

Strategy 
AdAlta Limited intends to develop its novel i-body platform with a focus on its lead candidate AD-114, 
a  first-in  class  treatment  for  idiopathic  pulmonary  fibrosis  (IPF)  and  other  fibrotic  diseases.  AdAlta’s 
lead  drug  candidate,  AD-114,  is  undertaking  manufacturing  scale  up  to  commence  clinical  trials  for 
the  treatment  of  IPF  and  other  human  fibrotic  diseases,  for  which  current  therapies  are  sub-optimal 
and there is a high unmet medical need. 

The Company’s proprietary technology platform generates a new class of protein therapeutics known 
as i-bodies, which are expected to be used as drugs to treat a range of diseases.  

The Company also plans to continue further drug discovery and development directed towards other 
drug targets and diseases using its i-body technology platform. 

The  increase  in  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  net  assets,  contributed  equity  and  accumulated  losses 
was  largely  the  result  of  receipt  of  funding  by  way  of  convertible  notes  and  the  Research  and 
Development tax incentive. 

The Directors believe the Company is in a strong and stable financial position to expand and grow its 
current operations. 

Significant changes in state of affairs 
During the  year, the Company changed its status from propriety  limited company  to  a limited company 
and undertook a share split on the basis that 1 share or option split into 5.8618 shares or options. 

Events after the reporting period 
On  8  July  2016,  the  Company  lodged  a  prospectus  with  ASIC  for  the  offer  of  32,000,000  and  up  to 
40,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares at a price of $0.25 per share to raise a minimum of $8,000,000 and

a maximum of $10,000,000.  On 12 August 2016, the Prospectus closed over-subscribed.  The Company 
was admitted to the official list of the ASX on 22 August 2016. 

On  12  August  2016,  the  Company’s  convertible  notes  and  Series  A  Preference  shares  converted  to 
ordinary shares. 

On  22  August  2016,  the  Company  received  a  Research  and  Development  tax  incentive  refund  of 
$738,045 for the 2015/2016 financial year. 

Otherwise, there has not been any matter or circumstance that has arisen subsequent to the end of the 
financial  year that has significantly  affected, or may significantly  affect, the operations of the Company, 
the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company in future financial years. 

Future developments, prospects and business strategies 
AdAlta’s  strategy  is  to  develop  its  lead  i-body  drug  candidate,  AD-114,  to  demonstrate  safety  and 
advance the lead to the clinic for treatment of fibrosis related diseases.  Demonstration of the lead i-body 
drug  candidate  in  the  clinic  is  also  expected  to  increase  interest  in  wider  applications  of  the  i-body 
platform and its unique features of safety and efficacy.  

AdAlta currently intends to license the lead candidate to a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company to 
generate up-front, milestone payments and licensing revenues.  

The i-body platform provides an opportunity for the expansion of the pipeline of i-body drug candidates in 
multiple therapeutic areas.  

The  Company  plans  to  maximise  the  benefits  of  its  i-body  platform  and  i-body  libraries  through 
partnerships,  while  retaining  the  ability  to  resource  and  focus  on  its  own  in-house  discovery  and 
development activities. Development of additional i-body drug candidates provides potential for additional 
revenue, including up-front, milestone payments and licensing payments. 

Environmental issues 

The  Company’s  operations  are  not  subject  to  significant  environmental  regulation  under  the  Australian 
Commonwealth or State Law.

The named persons held their current position for the whole of the financial year and since the end of 
the financial year. 

Remuneration policy 
The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  is  currently  responsible  for  determining  and  reviewing 
compensation  arrangements  for  key  management  personnel.    The  Company  has  a  Remuneration 
Committee, which consists of John Chiplin (Chair of Remuneration Committee), Paul MacLeman and 
Liddy  McCall.  The  remuneration  policy,  which  is  set  out  below,  is  designed  to  promote  superior 
performance and long-term commitment to the Company. 

Non-Executive Director remuneration 
Non-executive  Directors  are  remunerated  by  way  of  fees,  in  the  form  of  cash,  non-cash  benefits, 
superannuation contributions or salary sacrifice into equity and do not normally participate in schemes 
designed for the remuneration of executives. 

Shareholders  approval  must  be  obtained  in  relation  to  the  overall  limit  set  for  the  non-executive 
Directors’ fees.  The maximum aggregate remuneration approved by shareholders for non-executive 
Directors is $350,000 per annum.  The Directors set the individual non-executive Director fees within 
the  limit  approved  by  shareholders.    Non-executive  Directors  are  not  provided  with  retirement 
benefits. 

Executive Director remuneration 
Executive  Directors  receive  a  base  remuneration  which  is  at  market  rates,  and  may  be  entitled  to 
performance  based  remuneration,  which  is  determined  on  an  annual  basis.    Overall  remuneration 
policies  are  subject  to  the  discretion  of  the  Board  and  can  be  changed  to  reflect  competitive  and 
business conditions where it is in the interests of the Company and shareholders to do so.  Executive 
remuneration  and  other  terms  of  employment  are  reviewed  annually  by  the  Board  having  regard  to 
the performance, relevant comparative information and expert advice. 

The  Board’s  remuneration  policy  reflects  its  obligation  to  align  executive  remuneration  with 
shareholders’  interests  and  to  retain  appropriately  qualified  executive  talent  for  the  benefit  of  the 
Company.  The main principles are: 
(a)  remuneration reflects the competitive market in which the Company operates; 
(b)  individual remuneration should be linked to performance criteria if appropriate; and 
(c)  executives should be rewarded for both financial and non-financial performance. 

The total remuneration of executives consists of the following: 
(a)  salary (cid:177) executives receive a fixed sum payable monthly in cash plus superannuation at 9.5% of 

salary; 

(b)  cash  at  risk  component  (cid:177)  executives  may  participate  in  share  and  option  schemes  generally 
made  in  accordance  with  thresholds  set  in  plans  approved  by  shareholders  if  deemed 
appropriate.    However,  the  Board  considers  it  appropriate  to  issue  shares  and  options  to 
executives outside of approved schemes in exceptional circumstances; 

(c)  other  benefits  (cid:177)  executives  may,  if  deemed  appropriate  by  the  Board,  be  provided  with  a  fully 

expensed mobile phone and other forms of remuneration; and 

(d)  performance bonus. 

The  Board  has  not  formally  engaged  the  services  of  a  remuneration  consultant  to  provide 
recommendations  when  setting  the  remuneration  received  by  Directors  or  other  key  management 
personnel during the financial year. 

Relationship between the remuneration policy and Company performance 
The  Board  considers  that  at  this  time,  evaluation  of  the  Company’s  financial  performance  using 
generally  accepted  measures  such  as  profitability,  total  shareholder  return  or  per  Company 
comparison  are  not  relevant  as  the  Company  is  at  an  early  stages  of  development  trial  which  is 
continuing as outlined in the Directors’ report.

*Pre-split amounts. **On 9 May 2016 the options were split on the basis that every 1 option be split into 5.8618 options. 

The  terms  and  conditions  of  each  grant  of  options  affecting  remuneration  in  the  current  or  future 
reporting period are:

*The exercise price of $1.00 is reduced to $0.0002 if 50% of the options are exercised within 3 months of vesting with the exercise 
price of the remaining 50% of those options being $0.09 if exercised within 12 months of vesting otherwise the exercise price is 
$0.17 following the split of issued capital. 

The value of the options at their date of grant has been taken as zero because, at the time of grant, the 
company  was  an  unlisted  entity  and  the  equity  structure  operated  such  that  any  returns  were  paid  to 
convertible note holders with any residual being paid to holders of Series A Preference shares with any 
final amount being available to ordinary shareholders.  Based on the Company’s net assets at the date 
of grant there was no value attributable to ordinary shares. 

Options have been granted to the Managing Director on a case by case basis since 2011 based on the 
achievement of milestones which varied for the relevant year depending on the stage of the Company’s 
research projects and the achievement of funding.  The milestones selected were considered relevant to 
enable the Company to progress its research projects and the assessment as to their achievement was 
performed by the Board. 

Options granted to the non-executive Directors related to their efforts in securing additional funding for 
the  Company.    A  performance  condition  is  attached  to  a  portion  of  the  options  issued  being  that  the 
options can only be exercised in the event of a transaction or exit of the Company. 

All  other  options  are  subject  to  time  based  vesting  conditions  with  no  specific  performance  condition 
attached. 

Key terms of employment contracts 
Samantha Cobb is employed in the position of Managing Director/CEO of the Company on the following 
material terms: 

1.  Effective 12 August 2016 (completion of the capital raising), a salary of $225,000 plus

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 

The Board of Directors of AdAlta Limited is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company 
and guides and monitors the business and affairs of the Company on behalf of its shareholders. 

To  ensure  the  Board  is  well  equipped  to  discharge  its  responsibilities  it  has  guidelines  for  the 
nomination and selection of Directors and for the operation of the Board. 

The key charters and policies associated with AdAlta’s corporate governance practices are: 

•  Constitution 
•  Board Charter 
•  Code of Conduct 
•  Securities Trading Policy 
•  Continuous Disclosure Policy 
•  Shareholders Communication Policy 
•  Risk Management Policy 
•  Diversity Policy 
•  Audit & Risk Committee Charter 
•  Remuneration & Nomination Committee Charter 

The  Board  has  also  reviewed  its  compliance  with  the  ASX  Corporate  Governance  Principles  and 
Recommendations (3rd Edition). 

The Board has also reviewed its skill matrix setting out the mix of skills and diversity that the Board 
currently has. 

In  accordance  with  Listing  Rule  4.10.3,  the  Company  has  elected  to  disclose  its  Corporate 
Governance  policies  and  its  compliance  with  them  on  its  website,  rather  than  in  the  Annual  Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

The financial statements cover AdAlta Ltd as an individual entity. AdAlta Ltd is a company limited
by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 19 September 2016 by the Directors of the
company.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other
authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the
Corporations Act 2001. The financial report is presented in Australian Dollars. The Company is
a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

in a financial

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded
would result
report containing relevant and reliable information about
transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Material accounting policies adopted
in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently
applied unless otherwise stated.

Except for cash flow information, the financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis
and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value
of selected non-curreent assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

(b) Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which
contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and
settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As disclosed in the financial statements, the Company incurred losses of $1,163,056 (2015:
$1,307,868) and the Company had net cash outflows from operating activities of $1,174,360
(2015: $1,382,438). As at balance date, the Company had net current assets of $1,167,888
(2015: $705,890).

The Directors believe that it is reasonably foreseeable that the Company will continue as a
going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of
the financial report, after consideration of the following.

On 8 July 2016, the Company lodged a prospectus with ASIC for the offer of 32,000,000 and
up to 40,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares at a price of $0.25 per share to raise a minimum of
$8,000,000 and a maximum of $10,000,000.

On 12 August 2016, the Prospectus closed over-subscribed and the Company was admitted to 
the official list of the ASX on 22 August 2016.

(c) Income Tax

The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current
(income) and deferred tax expense (income).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(c) Income tax (continued)

Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income
calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting
date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid
to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax
liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss
when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to
the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled and their measurement also
reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of
the related asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised
only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the
benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.

(d) Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to
transfer a liability in an orderly (ie unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable
and willing market participants at the measurement date.

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing
information is used to determine fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having
regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability. The fair values of assets and
liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation
techniques. These valuation techniques maximise,
the use of
observable market data.

to the extent possible,

the fair value measurement also takes into account a market

participant's ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market
participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The fair value of liabilities and the entity's own equity instruments (excluding those related to
share-based payment arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market
price in relation to the transfer of such financial instrument, by reference to observable market
information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this information is not available,
other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective
note to the financial statements.

(e) Plant and Equipment

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where
applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(e) Plant and Equipment (continued)

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and are therefore carried at cost less
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
In the event the carrying
amount of plant and equipment is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, the carrying
amount is written down immediately to its estimated recoverable amount and impairment
losses recognised either in profit or loss or as a revaluation decrease if the impairment losses
relate to a revalued asset.

from these assets. The recoverable amount

  Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a diminishing value basis over the
asset's useful life to the Company commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable asset are:

Class of Fixed Asset:
Computer software
Office equipment

Depreciation Rate

13.17%
17.31%

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the
end of each reporting period. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its
recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable
amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying
amount. These gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss when the item is derecognised.
When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that
asset are transferred to retained earnings.

(f) Financial Instruments

Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that
the Company commits itself to either purchase or sell the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is
adopted).

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs, except where
the instrument is classified 'at fair value through profit or loss' in which case transactions costs
are recognised as expenses in profit or loss immediately.

Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial
instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the
effective interest method or cost. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used
to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(f) Financial Instruments (continued)

Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is
measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and
adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the
maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the
relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash
payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts)
through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the
liability.

Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying
amount with a consequential recognition of an income or expense item in profit or loss.

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

Financial assets are classified at 'fair value through profit or loss' when they are held for
trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or
when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance
evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a
fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying amount being
included in profit or loss.

(ii) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments
that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the
financial asset is derecognised.

(iii) Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and
fixed or determinable payments, and it is the Company's intention to hold these investments to
maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the
financial asset is derecognised.

(iv) Available-for-sale investments

Available-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets that are either not capable of
being classified into other categories of
financial assets due to their nature or they are
designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities
where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

They are subsequently measured at

(f) Financial Instruments (continued)

Available-for-sale financial assets are classified as non-current assets when they are not
expected to be sold within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other available-
for-sale financial assets are classified as current assets.

Impairment
At
the Company assesses whether there is objective
evidence that a financial asset has been impaired. A financial asset (or a group of financial
assets) is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a
result of one or more events (a 'loss event') having occurred, which has an impact on the
estimated future cash flows of the financial asset(s).

In the case of available-for-sale financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the
market value of the instrument is considered to constitute a loss event. Impairment losses are
recognised in profit or loss immediately. Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously
recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified into profit or loss at this point.

(g) Impairment of assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is any indication
that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include considering external sources of
information and internal sources of information, including dividends received from subsidiaries,
associates or joint ventures deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication
exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of
the asset, being the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use to the
asset's carrying amount. Any excess of the asset's carrying amount over its recoverable
amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued
amount in accordance with another Standard (e.g. in accordance with the revaluation model in
AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is
treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

(h) Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services
performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12
months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables
are classified as non-current assets.

(i) Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits 

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual
leave and long
service leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in
current liabilities in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured
at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

The Company's obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick
leave are recognised as a part of current trade and other payables in the statement of financial
position.

Long-term employee benefits 

leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12
The liability for annual
months of the reporting date are recognised in non-current liabilites, provided there is an
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability. The liability is measured as the present
value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees
up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to
expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of
service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on
national goverment bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as
possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

(j) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a
result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result
and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of
obligation at the end of the reporting period.

the amounts required to settle the

(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits available on demand with banks,
other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of 12 months or less, and
bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within short-term borrowings in current liabilities
in the statement of financial position.

(l) Revenue

Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Company
and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the
consideration received or receivable.

Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates
applicable to the financial assets.

Income from the Research and Development tax incentive is recognised on an accrual basis in
the year to which the incentive relates.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax.

(m) Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables represent the liabilities for goods and services received by the
Company that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. The balance is recognised as
a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.

(n) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the
amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other
receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from
the ATO are
investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to,
presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to
suppliers.

(o) Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform
to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

(p) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial statements
based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a
reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data,
obtained both externally and within the Company.

During the 2015/16 financial year, the Company changed its accounting policy in relation to
revenue recognition in order to reflect more appropriately the way in which economic benefits
flow to the Company as a result of research and development activities performed during the
year. Comparative amounts in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income
and statement of financial posiition have been restated for consistency.

(s) Operating Segments

The Company only operates in one segment.

(t) Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per shares

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of AdAlta
Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus
elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.

(u) Capital Risk Management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a
going concern, so that it can continue to fund research and development project activities.

The Company monitors capital on the basis of working capital requirements and during the

(c) Financial risk manangement

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks; market risk (fair value interest
rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. The Company's
overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks
to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company.

(i) Market risk

The Company is not exposed to either equity securities price risk or commodity price risk.

The Company has an exposure to foreign currency risk because several contracts relating to
cost of services are denominated in foreign currencies. When the service agreement is signed
the Company seeks to lock-in a foreign exchange rate to minimise the risks associated with
fluctuating currency markets.

(ii) Credit Risk

The maximum credit risk is total current assets of which the vast majority is either in the form of
cash or amounts receivable from the Australian Taxation Office in the form of the Research and
Development tax incentive and GST refundable.

(iii) Liquidity Risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and short term assets to
enable the Company to settle its liabilities.

With no long term debt or contractual commitments the Company's exposure to liquidity risk is
minimal.

(iv) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

As the Company has no interest-bearing liabilities, cash out flows are not exposed to changes in
market interest rates.

The Company maintains a current cheque account balance sufficient
expenses with the balance of cash held in accounts designed to maximise interest income.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF ADALTA LIMITED 

Report on the Financial Report 

We have audited the accompanying financial report of AdAlta Limited (the “Company”) 
which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2016 and the statement 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and the 
statement  of  cash  flows  for  the  year  then  ended,  notes  comprising  a  summary  of 
significant  accounting  policies  and  other  explanatory  information  and  the  directors’ 
declaration. 

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report 
which gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  for  such  internal  control  as  the  directors  determine  is 
necessary  to  enable  the  preparation  of  the  financial  report  that  is  free  from  material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

Auditor’s Responsibility 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit.  We 
conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Those Standards 
require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements 
and  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  whether  the  financial 
report is free from material misstatement. 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and 
disclosures  in  the  financial  report.    The  procedures  selected  depend  on  the  auditor’s 
judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial 
report,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.    In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the  auditor 
considers  internal control  relevant  to the  Company’s  preparation  of  the financial  report 
which gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate 
in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the 
effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  internal  control.    An  audit  also  includes  evaluating  the 
appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  accounting 
estimates made by directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial 
report. 

We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained  is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to 
provide a basis for our audit opinion. 

Independence 

In  conducting  our  audit, we  have  complied  with  the independence requirements  of the 
Corporations Act 2001.

and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and 

b)  complying  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and

Regulations 2001.

Our responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on the Remuneration  Report,  based  on  our 
audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. 

Auditor’s Opinion 

In  our  opinion  the  Remuneration  Report  of  AdAlta  Limited for  the  year  ended  30  June 
2016 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
