ALCIDION ANNUAL 
REPORT 2019                                            

Dear fellow shareholders,

I am pleased to present Alcidion’s Annual Report 
for the financial year ended 30 June 2019.

FY2019 was a defining year for Alcidion: The 
acquisitions of Patientrack and MKM Health have 
been central to this shift, and it has been a year 
in which we have built the foundations for further 
growth. We indicated at the time that these 
acquisitions were transformative, and we are proud 
that we have been able to deliver on this promise.

In the first year operating as the combined Alcidion 
Group we have proven we have a commercially 
attractive technology platform, along with wider 
capabilities as a provider of health IT services. This, 
combined with our complementary suite of reseller 
solutions, has seen Alcidion selected to be a part 
of some of the most exciting digital transformation 
projects taking place in healthcare organisations 
in Australia, New Zealand and the UK. We have 
taken advantage of the cross-selling opportunities 
that the acquisitions created, delivering our first 
fully integrated Miya, Patientrack and Smartpage 
contracts with luminary customers in Australia 
and the UK.  We also saw the first installation 
of Miya Precision go live in New Zealand. 

We closed out the 2019 financial year delivering 
our first positive annual cash flow and with 
earnings approaching break-even point. We 
enter the new financial year in a strong position; 
with a solid book of contracted revenue that 
will be recognised in FY2020 and beyond, giving 
us a strong foundation on which to build. 

I’d like to take this opportunity to expand 
further on some of the highlights of FY2019: 

STRATEGIC CONTRACT WINS

Throughout the 2019 financial year, Alcidion’s 
customer contracts increased significantly, contributing 
to a 33 percent increase on pro forma FY2018 
revenue as a group, and a 300 percent revenue 
increase on FY2018 statutory reported revenue.

Milestone strategic contract wins included a $4.75 
million five-year contract with ACT Health in July 
2018, the first contract implementing our full Miya, 
Patientrack, Smartpage product suite. In March 2019, 
Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust signed a five-year 
contract worth £1.16 million ($2.1 million) for the first 
UK implementation of the full product suite. These 
wins exemplify the value of the combined group, and 
we continue to pursue similar sales opportunities 
in these markets for the integrated product suite. 

Revenue generated from services also contributed 
significantly to FY2019 results, making up $9.3 million 
of the $16.9 million total revenue. This services 
capability, along with our portfolio of solutions 
from resellers, puts us in a highly differentiated 
position as a trusted advisor and partner assisting 
healthcare organisations conceive and implement 
innovative digital health solutions. Significant services 
revenue is also generated from our product sales.

INTEGRATION OF BUSINESS 
AND CAPABILITIES

A core focus for Alcidion in FY2019 has been integrating 
the businesses and capabilities of the combined 
group. The acquisitions have provided Alcidion with an 
expanded range of products and services, and enabled 
us to take strongly differentiated product and services 
offerings to an extended customer-base in Australia, 
the UK, and New Zealand. As well as strong potential 
for cross-selling further components of our integrated 
product suite and health IT services to existing 
customers, we have been encouraged by the market’s 
interest in our data analytics offerings and capabilities.

From a product perspective, Alcidion was pleased to 
launch its next-generation platform, Miya Precision. 
Miya Precision offers customers a consolidated 
platform to improve the patient journey, using smart 
dashboards that utilise real-time information enhanced 
by artificial intelligence and predictive algorithms. In 
February 2019, Miya Precision was launched in New 
Zealand, going live at MidCentral District Health Board 
and receiving resoundingly positive feedback from 
the customer. The Miya Precision platform has been 
optimised for use with Patientrack and Smartpage.

Alcidion through its next few years of growth.
Simon replaced Geoffrey Rohrsheim, who stood 
down from the Board effective 30 June 2019. I’d like to 
sincerely thank Geoff for his contribution as a Non-
Executive Director, a role he held from August 2017.

In August 2019, subsequent to the financial year end, 
Alcidion co-founder and Non-Executive Chairman Ray 
Blight stepped down from his role as Chairman and 
remains on the Board as a Non-Executive Director. 

I would like to acknowledge and thank Ray for his 
commitment and his vision in bringing Alcidion to 
where it is today. Not only has Ray, alongside his 
co-founder Malcom Pradhan, been instrumental in 
seeing the technology evolve from an inspiration to 
commercial reality, he has had the strategic foresight 
to execute on the acquisitive growth strategy that 
has expedited our commercial success to date. 

Personally, I am honoured to take on the 
Chair role and to contribute to the next 
phase of Alcidion’s growth and success. 

OUTLOOK

Post-acquisition, we invested in enhancing Patientrack 
to seamlessly integrate with Miya and Smartpage 
systems, to support our cross-selling focus and 
ensure the three products complement each other 
and deliver synergistic results to hospitals. This will 
continue to be a focus in FY2020 as we further build 
on the capabilities of the combined product set.

We have recently completed a rebrand, consolidating 
the various identities of MKM Health, Patientrack 
and Oncall Systems into one unified Alcidion 
brand. For us it is much more than a logo change, 
it signals that the process of integration is nearly 
complete and that we are now poised for the 
next stage of growth as one Alcidion group.

EVOLVING OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM

Alongside the changes within the business, Alcidion 
has pursued a succession planning strategy to 
ensure the Board is suitably structured to guide the 
company through the next phase of its growth.

After becoming CEO of the Alcidion Group in July 
2018, Kate was promoted to Group Managing 
Director in January 2019. I would like to recognise 
Kate’s leadership throughout this year which has 
resulted in the company achieving significant 
growth whilst maintaining operational focus on the 
necessary integration of the acquired businesses.  
She is supported by an exceptional executive team 
and a talented group of health IT specialists who 
have all contributed to the company’s success.

In July 2019, Simon Chamberlain was appointed 
as Non-Executive Director. Simon is an 
accomplished business leader and strategist, 
bringing valuable international perspective, a 
proven leadership track record across a range 
of industries, and a global network. Simon will 
provide guidance and valuable experience to 

The healthcare industry is now accepting the need 
to use IT to transform healthcare delivery in the face 
of rising demand and a disenfranchised workforce. 
The next phase of digitalisation of healthcare has 
arrived and the adoption of platforms like Miya 
Precision is gaining momentum. Alcidion has 
demonstrated that it is well positioned to seize 
upon this market opportunity and embark on our 
mission of Transforming Healthcare Together.

On behalf of the Board, I’d like to thank our 
shareholders for your support over the last financial 
year, and as we look forward to FY2020. You continue 
to play an important role in our growth and vision to 
be a leading provider of health IT solutions globally.

Yours faithfully,

Ms Rebecca Wilson
Chair, Alcidion Group Limited

OUR YEAR OF 
TRANSFORMATION

From its foundation in 2000, Alcidion’s focus has been on one premise: offering 
innovative smart technologies to make healthcare better. Over the course 
of its growth, Alcidion has expanded into three global markets, broadened 
its healthcare IT capabilities and suite of products, and has evolved from an 
Adelaide-based health informatics company into a leading provider of health 
IT products and services globally, focused on improving patient outcomes.

Following two transformative acquisitions completed in July 2018, the combined Alcidion 
has continued to deliver strong commercial and operational results across its expanded 
markets of Australia, UK and New Zealand. In its first combined year, Alcidion increased 
investment in integration of the businesses and capabilities, whilst also delivering 
strategically significant contracts and financial growth. Today, Alcidion enters FY2020 
having achieved positive net cash flow and with earnings approaching breakeven.

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT

Major new contracts announced 
during FY2019 included:

Dear fellow shareholders,

I am pleased to present an update on 
activities undertaken in financial year 2019 
and milestones achieved in our first year 
of reporting as a combined group.

BUILDING ON A TRANSFORMATIVE 
ACQUISITION

FY2019 commenced with Alcidion acquiring the 
combined business operations of the MKM Health 
group of companies and the associated Patientrack 
group of companies on 3 July 2018. The acquisitions 
delivered the complementary electronic bedside 
observations and early warning score system 
Patientrack, an established health IT services 
business in MKM Health, and a significant customer 
base across Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

These acquisitions have been transformative for 
Alcidion. In FY2019, Alcidion quadrupled year-
on-year revenue, integrated its newly acquired 
Patientrack platform with Alcidion’s existing 
Miya and Smartpage products, and established a 
consolidated Alcidion group presence in the UK 
market. During FY2019, Alcidion’s market presence 
in Australia and New Zealand also expanded. 
MKM Health’s long-term customer relationships 
are providing opportunities for cross selling the 
expanded Alcidion suite of products. Alcidion has 
achieved early success in exploiting these cross-
selling opportunities, and this will be an important 
strategy for continued growth in FY2020.

Alcidion’s leadership team and sales capability 
has also been bolstered as a result of the 
acquisitions, and this has helped to deliver 
the strong result achieved in FY2019. All the 
key executives of MKM Health and Patientrack 
have remained with the business and this 
proven management team will drive the further 
expansion of Alcidion throughout FY2020.

Our customer offering has been strengthened 
by the systems integration and health data 
analytics skillset within the MKM Health team. 
We now have the integration skills required to 
extract and aggregate the data that feeds the 
Miya Precision platform. In addition, MKM Health 
has developed a real time replication capability 
for one of the leading Electronic Medical Record 
(EMR) platforms, which allows us to easily 

integrate the EMR data to our platform and offer 
EMR users a mobile EMR experience with clinical 
decision support available at the point of care.

A YEAR OF SIGNIFICANT 
NEW CONTRACT WINS

In a year when significant time and focus was 
required to integrate the acquired businesses, 
the expanded management team has still been 
able to grow the business in all of our markets. 

The expanded Alcidion group delivered $16.9M 
in revenue in FY2019. This is an increase of over 
300% on FY2018 revenue of $4.2M and represents 
a revenue increase of 33% when compared to 
the FY2018 unaudited pro forma revenue for 
the combined entities, which was $12.7M.

Revenue during the year was boosted by new 
contract wins for our leading software solutions, 
including with customers who recognised 
the value of the combined capability of these 
platforms. We demonstrated our ability to 
retain existing customers through the renewal 
of several recurring revenue software contracts 
for Miya and Patientrack. We also continued 
to demonstrate our leadership in the area of 
health systems integration and data analytics, 
by signing several large services contracts.

•  ACT Health (July 2018): a five year deal 

valued at approximately $4.8 million with 
ACT Health to deploy an Electronic Patient 
Journey Board solution. This represented the 
first deployment of a fully integrated Miya 
Flow, Patientrack and Smartpage offering

•  NT Department of Health (July 2018): a three 
year contract extension with value of $2.6 
million over three years for the Miya platform

•  Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust (March 

2019): a five year contract worth £1.16 million 
(~$2.1 million) for the first fully integrated 
installation of Alcidion’s combined product suite, 
Miya, Patientrack, and Smartpage, in the UK

•  Brighton and Sussex NHS Trust (March 2019): 

a five year contract worth £574K ($1.03 million) 
to implement Patientrack at four hospital sites

•  Queensland Health (November 2018): a contract 

to establish a state-wide Referral Service 
Directory, which will be the central point of 
reference for external referrals from General 
Practitioners across Queensland Hospital and 
Health Services. This project will be deploying 
the NextGate Matchmetrix software for which 
Alcidion is the authorised reseller in Australia 
and New Zealand. The contract value is 
approximately $12 million with a five-year term;

•  Alfred Health (August 2018): a strategic 

collaboration to deliver data management 
capability (contract terms not disclosed);

•  ACT Health (Dec 2018): a two year contract 
extension for the provision of ongoing IT 
support services valued at $1.3 million

•  ACT Health (February 2019): a 2.5 year 
Patientrack licensing and support 
extension valued at $711K, for use 
in two Canberra hospitals

•  Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust 
(June 2019): a five year licensing and support 
renewal agreement for Patientrack, with a 
value of $970K. Patientrack is deployed across 
68 wards at the trust’s three hospital sites.

The new contracts also enabled Alcidion to 
commence FY2020 with $11.7M revenue already 
sold for recognition in FY2020, with a further $19.5M 
sold revenue to be recognised through to FY2025.

On 17 September 2019, subsequent to the year-
end, Alcidion signed a three-year agreement 
with Australian private healthcare provider 
Healthscope to implement a data and analytics 
solution worth $895K. This is Alcidion’s first 
implementation of our data and analytics 
capabilities into a private hospital group.

A TURNAROUND IN 
FINANCIAL RESULTS

Of the total $16.9M FY2019 revenue, $7.9M (47%) 
was recurring and $9.0M (53%) non-recurring. 
Services revenue, which includes product 
implementation as well as integration and data 
analytics services, contributed $9.3M (55%) of 
total revenue with product licensing, support and 
maintenance generating the remaining $7.6M (45%).

Over FY2019, the expanded Alcidion group has 
transitioned to a business that has demonstrated it 
can deliver positive operational cash flow. Alcidion 
achieved its first year of positive operating cash flow, 
with a net cash inflow from operating activities of 
$2.0M achieved from cash receipts of $16.5M. This 
compares to a cash outflow from operating activities 
of $1.8M in FY2018 from cash receipts of $4.3M.

a hospital, it stores millions of data points regarding 
patient status throughout the patient journey from 
admission to discharge. This data provides a hugely 
valuable platform on which advanced data analytics 
can be performed to both better understand the 
impact of clinical care on a patient, as well as detect 
and even predict issues with patients more quickly, 
leading to more timely clinical intervention.  

Patientrack is therefore highly complementary to 
the existing Alcidion product Miya Precision, which 
can perform the advanced data analytics and 
provide enhanced clinical decision support, and 
Smartpage which can transmit alerts and provide 
a team collaboration environment for clinical staff 
responding to these alerts. The full integration of 
Patientrack, Miya and Smartpage began in FY2019, 
and continued enhancement of the combined 
product suite remains a priority for FY2020. 

The market’s interest in, and readiness for, our 
combined solution offering has been demonstrated 
in FY2019 by the contract signed with ACT Health 
for the first integrated Miya, Patientrack and 
Smartpage installation, as well as the first integrated 
Miya, Patientrack and Smartpage contract signed 
in the UK with Dartford & Gravesham NHS Trust. 

CONTINUED INVESTMENT 
IN MIYA PRECISION

A significant product development milestone in 
FY2019 was the successful launch of Alcidion’s 
next-generation Miya Precision platform at New 
Zealand’s MidCentral District Health Board in 
February 2019. This was the first implementation 
of the Miya Precision platform, which was fully re-
engineered to support SaaS deployment, and for 
the deployment of Artificial Intelligence capabilities 
and decision support algorithms to support the 
transformation of healthcare. This launch was met 
by very positive feedback from the customer. 

There was an overall cash inflow for FY2019 of $282k 
across all sources, after $1.5M cash consideration 
was paid as part of the acquisition of MKM Health 
and Patientrack. This increased Alcidion’s available 
cash reserves from $2.9M to $3.2M. This compares 
to an overall cash outflow of $2.4M in FY2018.
Alcidion also achieved a near break-even 
earnings result in FY2019.  FY2019 EBITDA loss 
was $39k compared to an EBITDA loss of $2.1M 
in FY2018.  The net operating loss before tax of 
$110K in FY2019 was a 95% improvement on the 
FY2018 net operating loss before tax of $2.1M.

This is a substantial achievement for the company, 
especially considering the impact of one-off costs 
associated with the acquisitions of MKM Health 
and Patientrack, and in a year of investment 
in integrating the acquired businesses.  

INTEGRATING ALCIDION’S 
EXPANDED PRODUCT SET

The acquired Patientrack software product focuses 
on improving patient safety and operational 
efficiency by identifying patients at risk of 
deterioration and alerting appropriate care givers. 
Patientrack provides a mobile platform for bedside 
recording and analysis of vital signs, performing 
bedside patient assessments and completing other 
clinical documentation that can trigger and informs 
appropriate clinical response. By collecting all vital 
signs and other patient assessments performed in 

During the year NSW Health selected Alcidion and 
the Miya Precision platform for a Proof of Concept 
(PoC) with the Murrumbidgee LHD to trial the 
ability to deploy the mobile EMR capability of Miya 
along with its clinical decision support capabilities 
running across the already deployed Cerner EMR.  
The PoC project is exploring how critical laboratory 
test results can be shared securely and in real time 
via mobile devices to support enhanced clinical 
decision-making. A team of 10 ED clinicians is 

trialing mobile notifications of real-time pathology 
results and risk indicators, via Alcidion’s Miya 
Precision Clinical Decision Support (CDS) tool.

As well as the investment required to integrate 
Miya Precision with the newly acquired Patientrack 
software, further investments have been made 
over FY2019 in developing and integrating 
natural language processing (NLP) capabilities 
in the platform to improve detection of critical 
risks and assist with improved clinical coding 
outcomes for maximising revenue, along with 
continued development of the clinical decision 
support capabilities. With the clinical decision 
support market projected to grow to $6.4bn by 
2024 according to latest Frost and Sullivan report, 
Alcidion is focused on enhancing our offering 
with more complex predictive algorithms and 
enhanced artificial intelligence capabilities.

BROADENING ALCIDION’S PRODUCT 
AND SERVICE OFFERINGS

Alcidion continues to expand its portfolio of 
software products and related services it provides 
to customers, via reseller agreements with suppliers 
of complementary solutions.  This is consistent with 
our strategy of delivering end-to-end healthcare 
IT solutions, services and support to customers 
who are looking to achieve a well-integrated best 
of breed technology platform to improve patient 
care and achieve operational efficiencies. 

Alcidion’s ~$12M contract signed in Q2 with 
Queensland Health to establish a Queensland-
wide Referral Services Directory (RSD) using 
NextGate’s Provider Registry is an example of 
the value added by offering such solutions, and 
aligns with our strategic focus on partnering 
with state and territory healthcare agencies to 
build enhanced ICT infrastructure to support 
better connected and coordinated health 
service delivery across multiple agencies. 

In FY2019, Alcidion entered into a reseller 
agreement with Better By Marand to resell its 
OPENeP medication management solution. Since 
the start of the FY2020 financial year, Alcidion has 
announced that Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust 
in the UK has awarded Alcidion preferred provider 
status for this solution, which is yet to be contracted.

OUTLOOK

Over the past year Alcidion has proven it is 
capable of organic and sustainable growth.

We believe there is tremendous opportunity 
ahead for Alcidion in its existing Australia, UK and 
New Zealand markets, with healthcare providers 
embracing digital solutions to improve care more 
than ever before. We are ideally positioned to 
seize this opportunity. Alcidion will continue to 
invest in scaling up the organisation to ensure we 
have the capacity to pursue new opportunities 
and respond to the growing demand for health 
IT solutions right across the healthcare sector. 

Strategically, Alcidion’s sales focus continues 
to be on cross-selling its broad capabilities, 
including our suite of innovative platforms, reseller 
solutions and integrated technology services.

We look forward to keeping our shareholders 
updated as we build on the solid foundation laid 
this year.  We know that there are many long term 
holders, and we were pleased to also welcome a 
number of new investors over the past year, and I 
sincerely thank you all for your support of Alcidion. 

Yours faithfully,

Ms Kate Quirke
Managing Director, Alcidion Grroup Limited

IMPROVING  
PATIENT FLOW AND 
BED MANAGEMENT 
AT MIDCENTRAL 
DISTRICT HEALTH 
BOARD

“The information is displayed 
in an easy-to-read way and the 
system provides both charge 
nurses and nurse managers 
with the ability to see real-
time updates on patient flow, 
which improves planning 
and ultimately ensures every 
patient is provided with 
the best care possible.”

Celina Eves  
Executive Director of Nursing and Midwifery, 
MidCentral District Health Board

RESULT

Miya Precision is being used across 17 
wards and the Emergency Department 
at Palmerston North Hospital, and two 
wards at Horowhenua Health Centre.

Since the implementation of Miya Precision, 
MDHB staff have seen a noticeable improvement 
in bed allocation, smoother patient flow, and a 
more efficient allocation of hospital resources.

With Miya Precision’s Hospital Operations Centre, 
staff can quickly allocate the best beds for each 
individual patient, minimising wait times and 
keeping the patient journey as smooth as possible.

information and bed management updates to 
MDHB staff and can be accessed by clinicians 
using an iPad at the bedside, workstation, and 
patient journey boards installed in each ward.

And now that clinicians can view a patient’s 
information at the bedside, in real-time, they 
are better equipped to make the right care 
decisions, quickly, to improve patient outcomes.

In February 2019, Alcidion’s next-generation software Miya 

Precision was launched, going live for the first time at two sites 

at New Zealand’s MidCentral District Health Board.

Since introducing Miya Precision, the staff at New Zealand’s MidCentral District Health 

Board (MDHB) staff have seen a noticeable improvement in bed allocation, smoother 

patient flow, and a more efficient allocation of hospital resources. By integrating 

five different clinical information systems, clinical staff can now see detailed patient 

information in real-time, enabling them to make the right care decisions quicker, 

improving patient outcomes

CHALLENGE

SOLUTION

MidCentral District Health Board 
wanted to improve both patient safety 
and the clinician experience.

To do this, Alcidion concluded that MDHB 
needed to bring the data it had housed in 
many separate, disparate information systems 
together. By doing this, the data would be more 
useful and actionable for its staff, making it 
simple and fast for them to make the right care 
decisions based on real-time information.

MDHB was the first healthcare organisation 
in the world to roll-out of the next-generation 
Miya Precision platform, a ground-breaking 
technology to meet the needs of healthcare 
interoperability requirements through the 
integration of data from any source.

The software has successfully integrated with five 
clinical information systems at MDHB, including 
WebPas, CareStream Radiology, Clinical Portal 
and Pathology.  It delivers real-time patient flow 

Miya Precision also allows clinicians to view a 
patient’s admission history, demographics and test 
results at the bedside, in real-time. It also allows 
MDHB to add patient safety algorithms and apply 
artificial intelligence to improve patient outcomes.

Finally, Miya Precision’s Hospital Operations 
Centre gives MDHB’s Managing Nurses a high-
level overview of hospital bed occupancy in real-
time, with the ability to drill down into individual 
departments and wards for more detailed insight.

“The mobile technology is a 
godsend on ward rounds and has 
helped improved patient flow 
in and out of the ward, making 
discharges more evident and 
timely. I love it and wouldn’t be 
without it now.”

ANNUAL REPORT – REMUNERATION REPORT 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) 
The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: 

A.  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
B.  Details of remuneration 
C.  Share-based compensation 
D.  Director equity holdings 
E.  Director & KMP service agreements 

The  information  provided  in  this  remuneration  report  has  been  audited  as  required  by  section  308(3C)  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001. 

A. PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION 

The Remuneration Committee consists of three non-executive directors. The remuneration policy has been designed to 
align  director  and  executive  objectives  with  shareholder  and  business  objectives  by  providing  a  fixed  remuneration 
component and short-term incentives based on the Group’s financial results and achievement of individual performance 
targets aligned with the Company’s strategic goals. The Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and 
effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors and executives to manage the Group. 

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior executives is 
as follows: 

 

 

 

 

The  remuneration  policy,  setting  the  terms  and  conditions  for  the  remuneration  of  executive  directors  and  other 
senior executives, is reviewed annually as appropriate, to reflect changing remuneration practices and the growing 
size of the Company. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on the market rate for the role in similar 
sized listed companies and the experience of the individual), superannuation and short-term incentives in the form 
of annual performance-based bonuses.  

The Board may exercise its discretion in approving both salaries and short-term incentives to ensure they are designed 
to attract and appropriately incentivise the highest calibre of executives and reward them based on the achievement 
of financial results and strategic objectives that will drive long-term growth in shareholder wealth and the realisation 
of other strategic Company goals such as being an employer of choice and a good corporate citizen. 

The  Board  has  the  discretion  to  offer  long-term  incentives  (LTIs)  in  the  form  of  performance  rights  or  options  to 
executive directors and other senior executives, with a view to improving the retention of key executives.  No LTIs 
were granted in FY2019.   

The executive directors receive a superannuation contribution of 10% of base salary up to the maximum permitted 
concessionary contribution ($25,000) and do not receive any other retirement benefits. 

  All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed.  

 

The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable listed companies for time, 
commitment and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews the 
remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought 
when required. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company.  

B. DETAILS OF REMUNERATION 

Details  of  remuneration  of  the  directors  and  key  management  personnel  (as  defined  in  AASB  124  Related  Party 
Disclosures) of Alcidion Group Limited are set out in the following table. 

The Company does not have any other employees who are required to have their remuneration disclosed in accordance 
with the Corporations Act 2001.

Risk Management 

The Alcidion risk management processes support our business to manage and effectively mitigate critical risks.  The ability 
to effectively identify and manage risk is a vital element of business success for all parts of the Alcidion business. Risk 
management takes place in many different processes and operations throughout the Group.  The Board of Directors is 
ultimately responsible for the governance of risk management and the executive management ensures that there is a 
common and efficient process in place.   

During the year the Audit and Risk Committee has developed a Risk Management Process, Risk Appetite Statement and 
Risk  Management  Policy  and  continues  to  review  and  refine  these  on  a  regular  basis.   The  Risk  Register  has  been 
developed and will be regularly reviewed by the Committee and the Board and mitigation strategies implemented. 

Further details on Company Risk is outlined in Note 26 of the Financial Report. 

Significant Changes in State of Affairs 

Other than those disclosed in this annual report, no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group occurred during 
the financial year.

ANNUAL REPORT – DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED) 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

Significant Events after the Balance Date 

No  matters  or  circumstances  besides  those  disclosed  below  have  arisen  since  the  end  of  the  financial  year  which 
significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or state of 
affairs of the Group in future financial years. 

The Company has had five subsequent events post 30 June 2019: 

a)  The appointment of Mr Simon Chamberlain as Alcidion Group Non-Executive Director as at 1 July 2019; 

b)  On 15 July 2019, Mr Brian Leedman exercised 5 million options for ordinary shares at an exercise price of 6 cents

Healthscope to implement a data and analytics solution worth $895K.  

Likely Developments and Expected Results 

The completion of the acquisition and integration of MKM Health and Patientrack represents the start of a new strategic 
phase for Alcidion. Alcidion believes the health care industry is poised for the uptake of information technology to enable 
transformation like it never has been before. As such we have developed a new three-year strategic plan focused on 
increasing growth and scaling up our organisation to appropriately respond to this opportunity. We have a number of 
options to enable growth that we are assessing and will share  these  with shareholders as they develop. They involve 
enabling faster uptake in our current markets, expanding our geographical reach and potentially further acquisitions, all 
aimed at enabling Alcidion to more rapidly deliver shareholder value. 

Environmental Regulation and Performance 

The Groups activities are not subject to any particular and significant environmental regulation under laws of either the 
Commonwealth of Australia or a State or Territory of Australia. 

We  remain  committed  to  acting  in  a  manner  that  is  sensitive  to  our  impact  on  the  environment  and  that  remains 
complaint with the environmental policies in each jurisdiction, that our public sector customers require us to comply 
with.   

Insurance of Directors and Officers 

During or since the financial year, the Company has paid premiums insuring all the directors of Alcidion Group Limited 
against costs incurred in defending conduct involving: 

a)  A breach of duty, 
b)  A  contravention  of  sections  182  or  183  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  as  permitted  by  section  199B  of  the 

Corporations Act 2001. 

Alcidion has agreed to indemnify all directors and executive officers of the Company against liabilities to another person 
(other than the Company or a related body corporate) that may arise from their position as directors of Alcidion, except 
where the liability has arisen as a result of a wilful breach of duty in relation to the Company. The agreement stipulates 
that Alcidion will meet the full amount of any such liabilities, including costs and expenses. The contract of insurance 
prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.  

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, 
indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or of any related body corporate against  a 
liability incurred as such an officer or auditor.

ANNUAL REPORT – DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED) 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

Dividends 

No dividends were paid or declared during the financial year and no recommendation for payment of dividends has been 
made. 

Non-Audit Services 

The Board of Directors, in accordance with advice from the Audit and Risk Committee, is satisfied that the provision of 
audit  and  non-audit  services  during  the  year  is  compatible  with  the  general  standard  of  independence  for  auditors 
imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The Directors are satisfied that any non-audit services provided by the auditors 
during the year did not compromise the external auditor’s independence. All services provided by the external auditor 
or  associates  are  reviewed  and  approved  by  the  Audit  and  Risk  Committee  and/or  the  Board  to  ensure  they  do  not 
adversely affect the integrity an objectivity of the auditor. 

The fees paid or payable to William Buck and its associates for audit and non-audit services provided during the year 
ended 30 June 2019 have been disclosed at Note 9 of this financial report. 

Compliance 

Corporate Governance Statement 

The Board of Directors is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company. The Board guides and monitors the 
business  affairs  of  the  Company  on  behalf  of  the  shareholders  by  whom  they  are  elected  and  to  whom  they  are 
accountable. 

The Corporate Governance policies and practices of the Company are reviewed annually in accordance with the standards 
required of the Company by the Directors, the ASX,  ASIC and other relevant  stakeholders, to ensure that the highest 
appropriate governance standards are maintained, commensurate with the size and operations of the Company. 

The  ASX  Corporate  Governance  Council  released  the  third  edition  of  its  Corporate  Governance  Principles  and 
Recommendations on 27 March 2014 to take effect for the first full financial year commencing on or after 1 July 2014. 
The Company’s Corporate Governance Statement, and associated policy documents complies as far as possible with the 
spirit and intentions of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 
as appropriate, having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its enterprise. The Corporate Governance 
Statement can be found on the Company’s web site www.alcidion.com. 

Independent Professional Advice 

Directors of the Company are expected to exercise considered and independent judgement on matters before them and 
may need to seek independent professional advice. A director with prior written approval from the Chair may, at the 
Company’s expense, obtain independent professional advice to properly discharge his responsibilities.  

Board Composition 

The Board consists of two Executive and four Non-Executive Directors. Details of their skills, experience and expertise 
and the year of office held by each director have been included in the Directors’ Report. The number of Board meetings 
and the attendance of the directors are set out in the Directors’ Report. 

The Board will decide on the choice of any new director upon the creation of any new Board position and if any casual 
vacancy  arises.  Decisions  to  appoint  new  directors  will  be  minuted.  The  Board  considers  that  due  to  the  size  and 
complexity of the Company’s affairs it does not merit the establishment of a separate nomination committee. Until the 
situation changes the Board of Alcidion will carry out any necessary nomination committee functions.  

Share Trading Policy 

Directors, officers and employees are prohibited from dealing in Alcidion shares when they possess inside information 
and during designated black-out periods preceding the release of quarterly and annual results to the ASX. All trading of 
Alcidion shares by directors, officer and employees, when permitted, is subject to the prior written approval of the Chair 
in respect of director trading and the Managing Director in the case of executives and staff trading. The Board is to be 
notified promptly of any trading of shares in the Company by any director or officer of the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the financial year ended 30 June 2019 

1.

solutions for health care providers. In short, Alcidion builds, sells, delivers, runs and supports solutions for health care 
provider organisations in Australia, the UK and New Zealand. 

2. 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The  financial  statements  comprise  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the  Company  and  its  controlled  entities 
(collectively the Group). 

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 20 September 2019. 

2.1   Basis of preparation 

The Company is a for profit entity. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements 
are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

2.1.1  

Statement of compliance 

These  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  which  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and in 
compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards 
Board (IASB), and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). 

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report 
containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance 
with AASBs ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB. 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis, except for cashflow information and are 
based on historical costs. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for 
goods and services. 

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

2.1.2  

Comparative figures 

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

2.2 

 Principles of consolidation 

As  at  reporting  date,  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  controlled  entities  have  been  incorporated  into  the  consolidated 
financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the 
Consolidated Group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was 
obtained (ceased). 

34 

 
 
 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

2.2.1 

 Business combinations 

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on 
which control is transferred to the Group. Control exists when the Group is exposed to variable returns from another 
entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. 

The Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:  

 

 

 

 

less 

the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus 

the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquisition; plus 

if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; 

the net recognised amount of the identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed. 

When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 

The  consideration  transferred  does  not  include  amounts  related  to  settlement  of  pre-existing  relationships.  Such 
amounts are generally recognised in profit or loss. 

Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group 
incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. 

Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration 
is classified as equity, it is not remeasured, and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes 
to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss. 

2.2.2  

Subsidiaries 

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group.  

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by 
the Group. Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests 
even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance. A list of subsidiaries is provided in Note 28. 

2.2.3  

Transactions eliminated on consolidation 

All intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, 
are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.  

2.3 

 Taxation 

2.3.1 

 Income tax 

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

Current income tax expense charged to the 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 recognised outside profit or loss or arising from a business combination. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets 
and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have 
been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial 
recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable 
profit or loss. 

35 

 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

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,  based  on  tax  rates  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  at  reporting  date.  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. 

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, 
deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be 
controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.  

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net 
settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets 
and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to 
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where 
it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur 
in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. 

2.3.2   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  taxation  authority.  In  these  circumstances,  the  GST  is  recognised  as  part  of  the  cost  of 
acquisition  of  the  asset  or  as  part  of  an  item  of  the  expense.  Receivables  and  payables  in  the  statement  of  financial 
position are shown inclusive of GST. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included as a current asset or 
liability in the Statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and 
financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers and R&D rebate 
received or payments to suppliers and employees.  

2.4  
Plant and equipment 
2.4.1   Recognition and measurement 

Items of plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and carried at cost less accumulated depreciation (see 
below) and impairment losses (see accounting policy 2.5 Impairment of non-financial assets). In the event the carrying 
amount of plant and equipment is greater than the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down 
immediately to the estimated recoverable amount and impairment losses are recognised either in profit or loss or as a 
revaluation decrease if the impairment losses relate to a revalued asset. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is 
made when impairment indicators are present. 

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. 

The  carrying  amount  of  plant  and  equipment  is  reviewed  annually  by  Directors  to  ensure  it  is  not  more  than  the 
recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed based on the expected net cash flows that 
will  be  received  from  the  asset’s  employment  and  subsequent  disposal.  The  expected  net  cash  flows  have  not  been 
discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 

Where parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of 
plant and equipment. 

2.4.2 

 Subsequent costs 

The cost  of replacing part  of an item of plant and equipment  is recognised in the carrying amount  of the item if it  is 
probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured 
reliably. Any costs of the day-to-day servicing of plant and equipment are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss 
and Other Comprehensive Income as an expense as incurred. 

36 

 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

2.4.3 

 Depreciation 

Depreciation is charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a diminishing value or 
straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready 
for use.  

Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually for appropriateness. The depreciation rates used for the current 
and comparative period are: 

Class of fixed asset 

Depreciation rate (%) 

Computer equipment 

Furniture and fittings 

25 – 66.67 

10 - 25 

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 disposal of an item of plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal 
with the carrying amount of plant  and equipment  and are recognised net  within “other income” in the Statement  of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

2.5  

Impairment of non-financial assets 

The carrying amounts of the Group's non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets (see accounting policy 2.3.1) are 
reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, 
then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. 

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable 
amount.  A  cash-generating  unit  is  the  smallest  identifiable  asset  group  that  generates  cash  flows  that  largely  are 
independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income, unless the asset has previously been revalued, in which case the impairment loss is recognised 
as a reversal to the extent of that previous revaluation with any excess recognised through the statement of profit or loss 
and other comprehensive income. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to 
reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other 
assets in the unit on a pro rata basis. 

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its fair value less costs to sell and value in 
use.  In  assessing  value  in  use,  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  are  discounted  to  their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For 
an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has 
decreased  or  no  longer  exists.  An  impairment  loss  is  reversed  if  there  has  been  a  change  in  the  estimates  used  to 
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount 
does not  exceed the  carrying amount  that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortisation, if no 
impairment loss had been recognised. 

2.6  

Financial instruments 

2.6.1 

 Initial recognition and measurement 

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

37 

 
 
 
 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified 
“at fair value through profit or loss”, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Where 
available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques 
are adopted. Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the trade receivables do  not contain a 
significant financing component or if the practical expedient was applied. 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement 

2.6.2  
Financial Liabilities 
A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss if the financial liability is: 

- 

- 
- 

a contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3:   Business Combinations 
applies; 
held for trading; or 
initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss. 

All other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest 
expense in profit or loss over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the internal rate of return of the financial 
asset or liability. That is, it is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash flows through the expected life of 
the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition. 

Any gains or losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss to the extent that they are not part of 
a designated hedging relationship are recognised in profit or loss. 

The  change  in  fair  value  of  the  financial  liability  attributable  to  changes  in  the  issuer's  credit  risk  is  taken  to  other 
comprehensive income and are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Instead, they are transferred to retained 
earnings upon derecognition of the financial liability. If taking the change in credit risk in other comprehensive income 
enlarges or creates an accounting mismatch, then these gains or losses should be taken to profit or loss rather than other 
comprehensive income. 

A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (i.e. when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled 
or expires). An exchange of an existing financial liability for a new one with substantially modified terms, or a substantial 
modification to the terms of a financial liability is treated as an extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition of 
a  new  financial  liability.  The  difference  between  the  carrying  amount  of  the  financial  liability  derecognised  and  the 
consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit 
or loss. 

Financial Assets 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at amortised cost:  

- 

- 

the financial asset is managed solely to collect contractual cash flows; and 

the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and 
interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates. 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive 
income: 

- 

- 

the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and 
interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified; and 
the business model for managing the financial assets comprises both contractual cash flows collection and the 
selling of the financial asset. 

By  default,  all  other  financial  assets  that  do  not  meet  the  measurement  conditions  of  amortised  cost  and  fair  value 
through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. 

The initial designation of the financial instruments to measure at fair value through profit or loss is a one-time option on 
initial classification and is irrevocable until the financial asset is derecognised. 

38 

 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

A financial asset is derecognised when the holder's contractual rights to its cash flows expires, or the asset is transferred 
in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred. On derecognition of a financial 
asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration 
received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss. 

Cash and cash equivalents 

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits 
held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and 
bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, if any, are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the Statement 
of financial position. 

Trade and other receivables 

Receivables are usually settled within 60 days. 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. 

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the 
effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Collectability of trade and other receivables are reviewed 
on an ongoing basis. An impairment loss is recognised for debts which are known to be uncollectible. An impairment 
provision is raised for any doubtful amounts. 

Trade and other payables 

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year 
which are unpaid and stated at their amortised cost. The amounts are unsecured and are generally settled on 30 day 
terms. 

2.6.3  

Impairment of financial assets 

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 financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or a group 
of  debtors  are  experiencing  significant  financial  difficulty,  default  or  delinquency  in  interest  or  principal  payments; 
indications  that  they  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  other  financial  reorganisation;  and  changes  in  arrears  or  economic 
conditions that correlate with defaults. Impairment of trade receivables is determined using the simplified approach in 
AASB 9 which uses an estimation of lifetime expected losses. 

For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to 
reduce  the  carrying  amount  of  financial  assets  impaired  by  credit  losses.  After  having  taken  all  possible  measures  of 
recovery,  if  management  establishes  that  the  carrying  amount  cannot  be  recovered  by  any  means,  at  that  point  the 
written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced 
directly if no impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account. 

When the terms of financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been renegotiated, the 
Group recognises the impairment for such financial assets by taking into account the original terms as if the terms have 
not been renegotiated so that the loss events that have occurred are duly considered. 

2.6.4  

Finance income and expenses 

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, gains on the disposal of financial assets and changes in the 
fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, 
using the effective interest method. 

Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.

2.7  

Employee benefits 

2.7.1 

 Short-term employee benefits 

Provision for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 
months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided to the reporting 
date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects 
to pay at the reporting date including related payroll on-costs, such as worker’s compensation insurance and payroll tax. 

2.7.2   Other long-term employee benefits 

The Group's obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have 
earned in return for their service in the current  and prior periods plus related on-costs; that benefit is discounted to 
determine  its  present  value.  The  discount  rate  applied  is  determined  by  reference  to  market  yields  on  high  quality 
corporate bonds at the report date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations. 

2.7.3 

 Retirement benefit obligations: Defined contribution superannuation funds 

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions onto a 
separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to 
defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income as incurred. 

2.7.4 

 Equity-settled compensation 

The  Group  operates  an  employee  share  option  plan.  The  fair  value  of  options  granted  is  recognised  as  an  employee 
expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and spread over the period 
during which  the employees  become unconditionally entitled to the options.  The  fair  value of the options  granted is 
measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model, considering the terms and conditions upon which  the options  were 
granted.  The  amount  recognised  is  adjusted  to  reflect  the  actual  number  of  share  options  that  vest  except  where 
forfeiture is only due to market conditions not being met. 

2.8  

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group 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  the  amounts  required  to  settle  the  obligation  at  the  end  of  the 
reporting period. 

2.9 

Leases 

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised 
as expenses on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. 

Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of 
the lease term. 

2.10  Revenue and other income 

The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or 
services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those 
goods or services. 

Revenue is recognised by applying a five-step process outlined in AASB 15 which is as follows: 

Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer; 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract and determine at what point they are satisfied; 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price; 

40 

 
 
 
 
 
ANNUAL REPORT – NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; 

Step 5: Recognise revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. 

Following the adoption of AASB 15, on 1 July 2018, the Group’s revenue recognition accounting policy is that: 

The performance obligation for the implemented Group’s software is satisfied when the software has been installed and 
is operating materially as contractually required and appropriate services have been performed. Rather than recognising 
the contracted revenue evenly over the contract period which ranges from 12 to 60 months in the case of license revenue 
or evenly over an implementation period for service revenue (generally 3 to 12 months), under the new accounting policy, 
both license and implementation revenue for the contracted period is recognised at the point in time when the Group’s 
software has been installed and is operating materially as contractually required. 

All revenue is stated net of the amount of GST (Note 2.3.2 Goods and Services Tax (GST)). 

2.11 

 Segment reporting 

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues 
and  incur  expenses,  including  revenues  and  expenses  that  relate  to  transactions  with  any  of  the  Group's  other 
components. All operating segments' results are regularly reviewed by the Group's Directors to make decisions about 
resources  to  be  allocated  to  the  segment  and  assess  its  performance,  and  for  which  discrete  financial  information  is 
available. 

2.12 

 Intangible assets 

a. 

Intangible assets 

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually 
or at the cash-generating unit level.  The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the 
indefinite  life  continues  to  be  supportable.    If  not,  the  change  in  useful  life  from  indefinite  to  finite  is  made  on  a 
prospective  basis.    The  Directors  consider  that  intangible  assets,  other  than  patents  and  trademarks,  have  indefinite 
useful lives because they expect that they will continue to generate cash inflows indefinitely. 

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal 
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Other Comprehensive Income when the asset is derecognised. 

Goodwill  arising  on  an  acquisition  of  a  business  is  carried  at  cost  as  established  at  the date  of  the  acquisition  of  the 
business less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each 
of the Group’s cash-generating units (or Groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies 
of the combination. 

A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when 
there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its 
carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the 
unit  and  then  to  the  other  assets  of  the  unit  pro  rata  based  on  the  carrying  amount  of  each  asset  in  the  unit.  Any 
impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Other Comprehensive Income. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. 

b. 

Intangible assets other than goodwill 

Trademarks and licences 

Patents  and  trademarks  are  recognised  at  cost  of  acquisition.  They  have  a  finite  life  and  are  carried  at  cost  less  any 
accumulated  amortisation  and  any  impairment  losses.  Patents  and  trademarks  are  amortised  over  their  useful  lives 
ranging from 5 to 10 years.

2.13 

 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 

Management  discusses  with  the  Board  the  development,  selection  and  disclosure  of  the  Group's  critical  accounting 
policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. The estimates and judgements that have a 
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial 
year are discussed below. 

2.13.1 

 Key Estimate - Intangible assets and amortisation 

Research  costs  are  expensed  in  the  period  in  which  they  are  incurred.  Development  costs  are  capitalised  when  it  is 
probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility; the consolidated entity is 
able to use or sell the asset; the consolidated entity has sufficient resources; and intent to complete the development 
and its costs can be measured reliably.  

2.13.2 

 Key Estimate – provision for R&D  

Where the Group receives the Australian Government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive, the Group accounts 
for the amount refundable on accrual basis. In determining the amount of the R&D provision at year end, there is an 
estimation  process  utilising  a  conservative  approach.  Any  changes  to  the  estimation  are  recorded  in  the  subsequent 
Financial Year.  

2.14 

 New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 

The  Group  has  adopted  all  the  new,  revised  or  amending  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are that are relevant to their operations and are effective for the 
current reporting period. 

2.14.1   AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“AASB 15”) 
The Group has adopted AASB15 as issued in May 2014 with the date of initial application being 1 July 2018. In accordance 
with the transitional provision in AASB15 the standard has been applied using the full retrospective approach. In this 
regard, the Group applied a practical expedient and did not restate any contracts that were completed at the beginning 
of the earliest period presented. 
AASB15 superseded AASB118 Revenue, AASB111 Construction Contracts and related interpretations and it applies to all 
revenue  arising  from  contracts  with  customers,  unless  those  contracts  are  in  the  scope  of  other  standards.  The  new 
standard establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under AASB15, 
revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange 
for transferring goods or services to customers. 

2.14.2   Revenue recognition 
The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or 
services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those 
goods or services. 
At 1 July 2017 and 1 July 2018, all existing contracts were assessed and it was determined that the adoption of AASB15 
standards did not result in any material changes to the Group’s results or its financial position in both the current year 
and the comparative period. 

2.14.3 

 AASB 9 Financial Instruments (“AASB 9”) 

The Group has adopted AASB9 as issued in July 2014 with the date of initial application being 1 July 2018. In accordance 
with the transitional provision in AASB9, comparative figures have not been restated. AASB9 replaces AASB139 Financial 
Instruments:  Recognition  and  Measurement  (“AASB  139”).  Bringing  together  all  three  aspects  of  the  accounting  for 
financial instruments: classification and measurement; impairment and hedge accounting. The accounting policies have 
been updated to reflect the application of AASB 9 for the period from 1 July 2018. 

The adoption of AASB9 did not result in any material changes to the Group’s results or its financial position in both the 
current year and the comparative period.

2.15   New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted 

AASBs that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the Group 
for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2019. The Group's assessment of the impact of these new or amended 
AASBs, most relevant to the Group, are set out below: 

 AASB 16 Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). 

2.15.1 
When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases 
and related Interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model that eliminates the requirement for 
leases to be classified as operating or finance leases. 

The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows: 

i. 

ii. 

iii. 

iv. 

v. 

recognition of a right-of-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short-term leases with less than 12 months 
of tenure and leases relating to low-value assets); 
depreciation of right-of-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or  loss and 
unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components; 
inclusion of variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate in the initial measurement of the lease 
liability using the index or rate at the commencement date; 
application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease components and instead 
account for all components as a lease; and 
inclusion of additional disclosure requirements. 

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lessee to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives in line 
with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity on the 
date of initial application. AASB 16 also allows the use of  practical expedients for recognition of contracts previously 
classified as operating leases. 

The Group has evaluated that the impact of the new standards and determined that the impact on the statement of 
financial position at 30 June 2019 will be an increase in lease related assets of $892,746 and a corresponding increase in 
lease liabilities of the same amount on recognition of leases previously classified as operating leases. The impact on the 
consolidated statement of profit and loss is not material. 

2.16   Functional and presentation currency 

The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is the currency of the primary economic environment in which 
that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars (AUD), which is the Parent 
Entity’s functional and presentation currency.  

Transactions and balances  

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date 
of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items 
measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary 
items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange 
differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except exchange differences that 
arise from net investment hedges. 

Group companies 

The  financial  results  and  position  of  foreign  operations,  whose  functional  currency  is  different  from  the  Group’s 
presentation currency, are translated as follows: assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the 
end of the reporting period; income and expenses are translated at exchange rates on the date of transaction; and  all 
resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

BUSINESS COMBINATION 

Alcidion completed the 100% acquisition of MKM Health Pty Ltd (and MKM Health (NZ) Ltd) & Patientrack Holdings Ltd 
(and its 100% owned subsidiaries Patientrack (UK) Ltd and Patientrack Pty Ltd) on 3 July 2018. MKM Health is a leading 
provider  of  IT  solutions  and  services  to  healthcare  providers  across  Australia  and  New  Zealand,  while  UK  based 
Patientrack  is  a  world  leading  supplier  of  healthcare  software  targeted  at  improving  patient  safety  in  hospitals.  The 
acquisition expanded Alcidion’s international and domestic footprint substantially with a diversified customer base. 

The purchase was satisfied by the issue of 197,891,181 ordinary shares at a deemed issue price of 5.05c per share and 
the payment of $1,549,395 cash. 

Assets and liabilities acquired in the MKM Health and Patientrack operations have been measured at their fair value and 
the  excess  of  the  consideration  over  the  net  assets  acquired  and  recognised  upon  acquisition  has  been  recorded  as 
Goodwill  on  acquisition.  The  following  table  shows  the  assets  acquired,  liabilities  assumed  and  the  purchase

(i)  A further contingent consideration of up to AU$4m, to be satisfied by the issue of Alcidion shares at a deemed issue 
price of 5.05c per share, is payable in 12 months from acquisition date subject to the revenue and EBITDA performance 
of MKM Health and Patientrack  in  that  12-month period. The  revenue target  requires  the MKM Health Group to 
generate at least $11m in revenue over the 12-month period following the acquisition whilst the EBITDA target is 
based on a sliding scale ranging from $1m to $2m EBITDA. 

(ii)  Goodwill arose in the acquisition of the MKM Health Group due to the strong position and competitive advantage 
that the MKM Health Group has in the Health IT sector. None of the Goodwill arising on this acquisition is expected 
to be deductible for tax purposes. 

The measurement of identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination is highly subjective and there are 
a range of possible values that could be attributed for initial recognition. Judgement is applied in selecting the value to 
be recognized on the balance sheet. Management’s assessment of the useful life of the intangible assets is reviewed at 
each reporting period. 

Key Estimate – Contingent consideration 

Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent 
changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. 
Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within 
equity. 

Impact of acquisition on the results of the Group 

The  acquisition  has  transformed  Alcidion  from  what  is  was  in  FY2018.    In  FY2019,  Alcidion  quadrupled  year-on-year 
revenue.    While  the  Group’s  cost  base  was  also  significantly  increased  as  a  result  of  the  acquisition,  the  profitable 
operations of the acquired companies, resulted in a near breakeven FY2019 loss after tax for the expanded Alcidion Group 
of $84,165. 

Acquisition-related costs amounting to $150,000 have been excluded from the consideration transferred and have been 
recognised as an expense in profit or loss for FY2019, within the ‘operations and administration expense’ line item.

NOTE: The Cost of Sale of Goods and Services for 2019 and 2018 differs from that presented in the unaudited Preliminary Financial 
Statements which followed the presentation used in the 2018 Annual Report, which deducted only the cost of third party product and 
hardware (i.e. cost of sale of goods only) from revenue to determine Gross Profit. This was inconsistent with how Gross Profit was 
presented in the 2019 Half Year Review where the cost of direct labour used to deliver services and develop, maintain and support 
product was also included in the Cost of Sale of Goods and Services. Accordingly, the cost of direct labour has been reclassified from 
the total Directors and Employee Benefits Expense amounts shown above to Cost of Sale of Goods and Services and the calculation of

The  tax  rate  used  in  the  above  reconciliation  in  respect  to  the  income  of  group  entities  domiciled  in  Australia  is  the 
corporate tax rate of 27.5% (2018: 27.5%) payable by Australian corporate entities on taxable profits under Australian 
tax law. The tax rate used in the above reconciliation in respect to the income of group entities domiciled in New Zealand 
is the corporate tax rate of 28% (2018: 28%) payable by New Zealand corporate entities on taxable profits under New 
Zealand tax law. The tax rate used in the above reconciliation in respect to the income of group entities domiciled in the 
UK is the corporate tax rate of 19% (2018: 19%) payable by UK corporate entities on taxable profits under  England & 
Wales  tax  law.  In  2018,  the  Australian  Taxation  Office  introduced  legislation  under  which  the  corporate  tax  rate  for 
Companies satisfying the requirements to be assessed as a 'Small Business' reduced to 27.5%. To satisfy the requirements 
of a 'Small Business' in the 2019 financial year, a Company must have annual turnover of less than $50,000,000 (2018: 
$25,000,000). Alcidion Group Ltd has satisfied this requirement and is therefore eligible to apply the reduced income tax 
rate of 27.5%.

KEY ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS: INTANGIBLE ASSETS 

Intangible assets, other than goodwill and intellectual property, have finite useful lives. The current amortisation charges 
for intangible assets are included under depreciation and amortisation expense as per the statement of profit and loss 
and other comprehensive income. 

Goodwill  and  intellectual  property  is  tested  for  impairment  at  each  reporting  period  in  accordance  with  AASB136 
Impairment of Assets. Management have determined that there is one CGU. To assess whether goodwill and intellectual 
property is impaired, the carrying amount of the CGU is compared to the recoverable amount, determined based on the 
greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal. 

At each reporting date the directors review intangible assets for impairment. No impairment was assessed as necessary 
in the 2019 financial year (2018: Nil).

SEGMENT REPORTING 

The Group operates in the healthcare industry in Australia, New Zealand and the UK. For management purposes, the 
Group is organised into one main operating segment which involves the provision of healthcare software solutions and 
services in all these territories. All the Group’s activities are inter-related and discrete financial information is reported 
to the Board (Chief Operating Decision Maker) as a single segment. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are 
based upon analysis of the Group as one segment. The financial results from this segment are equivalent to the financial 
statements of the Group as a whole. 

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments 

a.  Accounting policies adopted 

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision makers with 
respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent  with those 
adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group. 

b. 

Intersegment transactions 

An internally determined transfer price is set for all intersegment sales. The price is based on what would be realised in 
the event the sale was made to an external party at arm’s length. All such transactions are eliminated on consolidation 
of the Group’s financial statements. 

c.  Segment assets 

When an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that that receives the majority of 
the economic value from the asset.

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial 
loss  to  the  Group.  The  Group  has  adopted  a  policy  of  only  dealing  with  creditworthy  counterparties  and 
obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. 
The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored.  

The  Group  does  not  have  any  significant  credit  risk  exposure  to  any  single  counterparty  or  any  group  of 
counterparties having similar characteristics. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties 
are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. 

The quality of debtors is best monitored by the ageing of open invoices in accounts receivable. 

Trade receivables are analysed as follows:

Receivables  that  are  neither  past  due  nor  impaired  comprise  customers  with  a  long-term  record  of  timely 
payments and/or no recent history of default arising from financial difficulty.

FOR YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019 

Receivables that are past due but not impaired comprise customers which do not have any objective evidence 
that the receivable may be impaired. Alcidion has actively engaged these customers and reasons for the invoices 
remaining outstanding are being actively resolved.  

An allowance for doubtful debts is recognised where Alcidion has identified objective evidence that an amount 
owing may not be recoverable, mainly arising from observed financial difficulty of a customer.

The Group always measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected 
credit loss. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference 
to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor's current financial position, adjusted for 
factors that are specific to the debtor, general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtor operates 
and an assessment of both the current and the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date. 

As at 30 June 2019, there were no expenses recognised during the financial year then ended for the write-off 
of receivables or provision for doubtful debts (2018: Nil). 

 (e) 

Liquidity risk management 

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise 
meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. 

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves,  banking facilities and reserve borrowing 
facilities  by  continuously  monitoring  forecast  and  actual  cash  flows  and  matching  the  maturity  profiles  of 
financial assets and liabilities. It is a policy of the Group that creditors are paid within 30 days.
