CORPORATE PROFILE
Asian American Medical Group Limited (“AAMG” or the “Group”), based in Singapore, has been listed on the
Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) since September 2009. The Group’s operations include the Asian
American Liver Centre Pte Ltd (“AALC”), established 1994 in Singapore, and Asian American Radiation &
Oncology Pte Ltd (“AARO”), established in 2015.
The Group entered into a strategic collaboration in October 2012 with United States (“U.S.”) based US$19-
billion integrated global health enterprise University of Pittsburgh Medical Centre (“UPMC”). UPMC ranked No.
14 in the U.S. News & World Report Honor Roll of American’s Best Hospitals, is affiliated with the University of
Pittsburgh Schools of the Health Sciences and is a pioneer in the field of transplantation. This collaboration has
enhanced AAMG’s clinical capabilities through shared protocols, rigorous quality standards and technology
and also created a platform for AAMG to expand into other countries in Asia such as Malaysia and Myanmar.
AALC, one of Asia’s foremost liver centres, is led by renowned hepatobiliary expert and liver transplant
surgeon, Dato’ Dr Kai Chah Tan (“Dr KC Tan”), who helped start the Liver Transplant Programme at King’s
College Hospital in London, United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and pioneered the highly successful Living Donor Liver
Transplantation (“LDLT”) Programme in Singapore. In 2014, AALC began conducting surgical procedures at
iHEAL Medical Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Following the setting up of our subsidiary Gold Bell Asia
American Healthcare Ventures Company Limited (“GBAA”) in Myanmar, AALC began conducting consultancy
and surgical procedures at Grand Hantha International Hospital in Yangon from 2017.
AARO offers radiation oncology treatment services, consultancy and management services and is spearheaded
by Dr Daniel Yat Harn Tan. Based in Singapore, AARO will drive expansion into the growing radiotherapy
and oncology segment in the overseas market, at a time where there is a shortage of modern radiotherapy
treatment centres.
In March 2018, AAMG completed the acquisition of Hippocrates Development Sdn Bhd (“HDSB”). HDSB owns
a 5-acre block of land in Iskandar Puteri, in the Southern Malaysian state of Johor, which has been earmarked
to be developed into medical hub, which will include an international cancer centre to be built in memory of
the Late Johor Prince Almarhum Tunku Abdul Jalil Iskandar ibni Sultan Ibrahim Ismail.

CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE
Dear Shareholders,
BUSINESS REVIEW
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Asian
American Medical Group (“AAMG” or the “Group”),
I am pleased to present the Annual Report for the
financial year ended 31 August 2018 (“FY2018”).
This scorecard captures our return to profitability in
the year under review and the significant progress
in our regionalisation efforts, especially with regards
to a proposed integrated cancer treatment centre in
Iskandar, Johor, Malaysia (“the Johor Project”).
The private medical sector in Singapore is still
grappling with challenges such as high healthcare
costs, stiff regional competition as medical hubs
spring up across Asia and the weakening of most
Southeast Asian currencies - in particular the
Indonesian Rupiah and the Malaysian Ringgit –
against the Singapore dollar. The wider availability
of medical expertise across Asia has resulted in
lower patient traffic from Southeast Asia and the
Middle East to Singapore.
Our financial recovery during the year in review
validates our strategy of focusing on our medical
specialisations and activities, our discipline
in
cost containment, and our tenacity in pursuing
partnerships
in countries from Myanmar and
Malaysia to Russia and beyond.
Dato’ Dr Kai Chah Tan
Executive Chairman
ASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2018
Apart from cost management and quality control,
we have been responding to these challenges by
strategically expanding into specialised radiation
and oncology, healthcare management and
consultancy and forging key partnerships in the
region. I am pleased to report that our efforts
continue to bear fruit. Despite the challenging
operating environment, our revenue rose 15.2% to
S$17.5 million this year from S$15.2 million a year
ago as overall patient transactions edged up 2.5%
to 7,079 from 6,903 in FY2017.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Liver Segment
The Asian American Liver Centre (“AALC”), our
wholly-owned one-stop provider of
liver and
hepatobiliary care and treatment, remained our
major revenue contributor. Full-year turnover came
to S$12.7 million, even as patient transactions for
this segment declined 0.6% to 6,494 in FY2018
from 6,530 last year. Our net loss in this segment
narrowed to S$0.7 million due to a cost reduction
exercise in January 2018.
Although Singaporeans have become more cost-
conscious in recent times, liver disease is a prevalent
issue in the city-state; the National Organ Transplant
Unit recently stated that the waiting list for liver
transplants has risen from nine in 2007 to 52 as of
mid-2018.
remains challenging
We carried out four Living Donor Liver Transplants
(“LDLTs”) this year, two fewer than in 2017. While
this decline indicates that the financial cost of
LDLTs
for Singaporeans,
we remain confident in AALC’s reputation and
capabilities. The number of liver dialyses performed
by AALC increased 67.8% during the year in review,
underscoring our status as a trusted medical
provider.
Radiation and Oncology
The Group’s subsidiary Asian American Radiation &
Oncology (“AARO”), which was established in 2015,
continues to grow steadily under the leadership of
Dr Daniel Yat Harn Tan and remains a major revenue
driver for us. We completed 585 patient transactions
this year, an increase of 56.8% from 373 the previous
year.
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2018During the year in review, AARO also welcomed
its new Consultant Radiation Oncologist, Dr David
Boon Harn Tan, who brings to the AAMG team a
decade’s worth of experience with the National
Cancer Centre Singapore. Moreover, I am pleased
to inform you that AARO’s clinical presence now
spans five locations in Singapore, in addition to its
existing body of overseas project management and
consultancy services in Myanmar and Russia.
Management and Consultancy Segment
The revenue for our management and consultancy
segment surged to S$1.8 million in FY2018 from
S$30,000 in FY2017 due to professional services
rendered for the development of the Johor Project.
Other income also increased 100.0% to S$0.4 million
in FY2018 from S$0.2 million in FY2017 due to the
sale of two ambulances. The segment recorded a
net profit of S$1.1 million in FY2018, a positive swing
from last year’s net loss of S$1.5 million.
Overall, the Group achieved a net profit after tax
of S$2.1 million in FY2018 across all segments,
reversing a loss of S$3.0 million a year ago. This
included a deferred tax benefit of S$0.2 million and
a gain on purchase of S$1.6 million after factoring
in one-off expenses amounting to S$0.7 million for
professional fees for our potential listing migration.
Without these one-off items, our net profit for
FY2018 would have been S$1.2 million.
EXPANSION STRATEGY
Hippocrates Development Sdn Bhd &
The Johor Project
On 6 March 2018, we completed the acquisition
of Hippocrates Development Sdn Bhd (“HDSB”),
an investment holding company incorporated in
Malaysia. HDSB is the land owner and developer
of the Johor Project, also known as the Tunku
Laksamana Johor Cancer Centre (“TLJCC”).
Following the transaction, AAMG holds 95.1%
interest of HDSB’s enlarged share capital and His
Majesty, the Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Ismail
ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar Al-Haj, became a
major shareholder of AAMG.
In line with AAMG’s strategic initiatives, TLJCC
will be built on HDSB’s major asset, a five-acre
freehold parcel of land in Iskandar Puteri, located
in the Southern Malaysian state of Johor. During
the Project Launch on 1 April 2018, His Majesty said
that the comprehensive specialist cancer centre
will initiate a number of “first” in Malaysia and the
region and is an initiative by the Johor Royal Family
to bring advanced cancer treatment to Johor.
The Johor Project will be a private, purpose-built
facility for cancer treatment, research and education.
It will feature state-of-the-art cancer diagnostic and
treatment facilities which will not only change the
operating environment for oncology in Southeast
Asia but also have a significant impact on the
Group’s overall performance.
09
Phase 1 of the centre will have a gross development
value of approximately RM300 million (US$77
million) and built-up area of approximately 14,000
square meters (150,696 square feet), offering an
ambulatory cancer facility comprising 30 day beds.
At full capacity, Phase 1 of the centre will be able to
treat up to 7,000 patients a year.
Rosatom Healthcare
Subsequent to the financial year, the Group signed
a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) on 19
September 2018 with Russian nuclear medicine
integrator, Rosatom Healthcare (“Rosatom”), to
develop a nuclear medical centre alongside TLJCC
in Iskandar Puteri.
Possible features of this centre include a cyclotron
and radiochemical complex, as well as departments
for radionuclide diagnostics and electron beam
treatment. This development will help enhance
TLJCC’s treatment offerings and make it into a
premier cancer treatment destination.
Both of these ventures illustrate our ability to
attract international strategic partners of significant
stature, as well as our determination to offer
a differentiated value proposition as we chart
new growth opportunities. These areas will be
the combined focus of our team going forward:
achieving excellence in delivering medical outcomes
in our areas of specialisation while seeking to create
or enhance value for all stakeholders.
TEAM UPDATE
We welcome to our Board Mr Stuart Dean, who was
appointed as Independent Non-Executive Director
of AAMG on 1 May 2018. He is an experienced
corporate advisor whose career spans more than
35 years in General Electric Inc.’s business functions
in the United States and Asia; including sales,
marketing, product management, capital markets
and business development.
We are grateful to Mr Kong Meng Ang, who stepped
down as Non-Executive Director on 5 February 2018
to focus other pursuits, for his service to the Group.
We wish him the best in his future endeavours.
APPRECIATION
On behalf of the team, I wish to convey my
appreciation to all shareholders for your loyalty and
support, and to AAMG’s management team and
staff for their hard work during the year.
Dato’ Dr Kai Chah Tan
Executive Chairman
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2018Tunku Laksamana Johor Cancer Centre
Project Launch
The Tunku Laksamana Johor Cancer Centre (“TLJCC” or the “Johor Project”) was officially launched by His
Majesty Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar, the Sultan of Johor, on 1 April 2018. TLJCC is being
established in memory of Almarhum Tunku Abdul Jalil Iskandar Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, Tunku Laksamana Johor,
who died from liver cancer in 2015 at age 25. The Prince was His Majesty’s third son and was known for his
philanthropic nature.
Led by AAMG, TLJCC will be a private, advanced purpose-built facility for cancer treatment, set up in the
heart of Iskandar.
“Tunku Jalil often went out of the way to visit, encourage and
inspire other cancer patients and survivors. He promised to
fight for their cause and ease the burden of cancer patients.
My family and I will continue what Tunku Jalil had hoped to
accomplish – to ensure that his legacy lives on,”
His Majesty said.

The Group’s revenue rose to S$17.5 million for the financial year ended 31 August 2018 (“FY2018”), representing
an increase of 15.2% or S$2.3 million from S$15.2 million for the financial year ended 31 August 2017 (“FY2017”),
due mainly to significant improvements in the radiation and oncology and healthcare management and
consultancy segments.
Our radiation and oncology segment recorded higher patient volume in FY2018 with the addition of a Radiation
Oncologist during the financial year, resulting in revenue increasing 53.6% to S$3.0 million in FY2018.
Revenue for the healthcare management and consultancy segment increased to S$1.8 million in FY2018,
due to fees for preliminary work performed in relation to the development of the integrated cancer centre
in Johor, Malaysia. Following that, the Group completed the acquisition of Hippocrates Development Sdn
Bhd (“HDSB”), the land owner and developer of the Johor Project, on 6 March 2018, signalling its foray into
healthcare real estate and the expansion of its radiation and oncology segment into Malaysia.
The Group recorded a 2.5% rise in overall patient transactions to 7,079 from 6,903 in FY2017. The corresponding
Net Profit after Tax (“Net Profit”) was S$2.1 million in FY2018, after accounting for a deferred tax benefit of
S$0.2 million, reversing a Net Loss after Tax (“Net Loss”) of S$3.0 million in FY2017. The Net Profit included a
gain on purchase of S$1.6 million relating to the acquisition of HDSB, as well as one-off expenses amounting to
S$0.7 million relating to professional fees incurred for the Group’s exploration of a potential listing migration
from ASX to the SGX. Without these one-off items, the Group’s Net Profit would have been S$1.2 million.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
LIVER SEGMENT
Revenue for AALC, the Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary operating in the liver segment, was S$12.7 million in
FY2018, a decline of 3.6% or S$0.5 million from S$13.2 million in FY2017. Patient transactions for this segment
declined marginally by 0.6% with 6,494 patient transactions in FY2018 compared to 6,530 in FY2017.
Although an increase is seen in the professional fees and number of liver dialysis of 9.3% and 67.8% in FY2018,
it was offset by the decrease in other activities such as surgeries, fibroscans and medication sales of 25.8%,
16.8% and 18.9% respectively. There were fewer LDLT performed during the year in review, with four completed
in FY2018 compared to six in FY2017.
Direct costs decreased by 4.7% or S$0.4 million to S$8.2 million from S$8.6 million in line with the lower
revenue. The marginally higher reduction in direct costs compared to revenue was due to a higher volume
of sales mix from clinical procedures with higher Gross Profit Margin (“GPM”). As a result, the overall GPM
increased to 35.4% in FY2018 from 34.5% in FY2017.
Despite the lower revenue, Net Loss narrowed by 86.3% or S$0.7 million due mainly to the cost reduction
exercise implemented in January 2018. Although the Group increased its headcount to 31 in FY2018 from 28
in FY2017, employee benefits expenses – AALC’s main cost component (constituting approximately 79% of
total expenses) – decreased by 9.8% or S$0.4 million to S$3.7 million in FY2018 from S$4.1 million in FY2017
as a result of reductions to salaries and bonuses.
The liver segment accounted for 72.7% of the Group’s revenue in FY2018 compared to 86.9% in FY2017.
Although it remains the Group’s largest revenue contributor, its share of contributions has declined due to the
growing contribution from other segments.
RADIATION AND ONCOLOGY SEGMENT
Revenue for the Group’s radiation and oncology unit, AARO, continued its growth momentum with a 53.6%
or S$1.0 million increase to S$3.0 million in FY2018 from S$2.0 million in FY2017. This was driven by the
56.8% increase in patient transactions to 585 from 373 in FY2017. AARO increased its number of doctors
to three with the recruitment of another Radiation Oncologist, Dr David Tan, in March 2018. In addition,
AARO expanded its clinical presence to five locations in Singapore. Provision of clinical services to patients
accounted for 96.0% of AARO’s total revenue, with the balance from overseas project management and
consultancy services carried out in Russia and Myanmar.
Direct costs increased by 58.3% or S$0.7 million to S$1.9 million in FY2018 from S$1.2 million in FY2017, in line
with the increase in revenue. The marginally higher increase in direct costs compared to revenue was due to
a higher volume of sales mix from clinical procedures with lower GPM. As a result, the overall GPM declined
slightly to 36.9% in FY2018 from 41.0% in FY2017.
Other operating expenses increased by 50.0% or S$0.3 million to S$0.9 million in FY2018 from S$0.6 million
in FY2017 as a result of the expanding operations. AARO’s headcount increased from four to seven to cater
for the larger operations, resulting in AARO’s employment cost increasing from S$0.5 million to S$0.6 million
in FY2018. Operating lease increased to S$72,000 in FY2018, up S$69,000 from S$3,000 in FY2017, as AARO
started new clinics in four more locations: Mount Alvernia Hospital, Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital, Farrer
Park Hospital and Concord International Hospital.
As a result of the above, Net Profit increased by 100.0% or S$0.2 million to S$0.4 million in FY2018 from S$0.2
million in FY2017, after recording deferred tax benefit of S$0.2 million. AARO remains the Group’s second-
largest revenue contributor, accounting for 17.3% (2017: 13.0%) of the Group’s revenue in FY2018.
MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTANCY SEGMENT
Revenue for the management and consultancy segment increased significantly to S$1.8 million in FY2018
from S$30,000 in FY2017. The increase was attributable to professional services rendered to HDSB in relation
to the development of the Johor Project prior to HDSB’s acquisition. Professional services rendered to HDSB
post-acquisition have been eliminated at the Group level.
Other income increased to S$0.4 million in FY2018, up 100.0% or S$0.2 million from S$0.2 million in FY2017,
due mainly to the sale of two ambulances which brought in a one-off net trading profit of S$0.2 million. Net
Profit from the management and consultancy segment came to S$1.1 million in FY2018, reversing a net loss
of S$1.5 million in FY2017.
The Group’s other operating expenses declined to S$1.0 million in FY2018, down by 35.0% or S$0.6 million
from S$1.6 million in FY2017, largely attributable to unrealised exchange gain arising from the weakening of
AUD against SGD on foreign-denominated intercompany loans, amounting to S$0.7 million.

per share (S cents)
Net assets for the Group increased by 60.7% or S$5.8 million to S$15.4 million in FY2018 from S$9.6 million in
FY2017. This was due to Net Profit for the year of S$2.1 million and an increase in share capital as a result of
the issuance of 40 million new shares; partially offset by the decrease in foreign currency translation reserve of
S$1.0 million, due to the weakening of AUD against SGD.

relating to the land and building for the development of the Johor Project, which has been consolidated

tax losses at entity’s level;
Decrease in trade and other receivables by 54.0%, or S$3.3 million, to S$2.8 million in FY2018 (FY2017:

Decrease in trade and other payables by 5.0%, or S$0.3 million, to S$5.6 million in FY2018 (FY2017:

from these UAE patients amounted to 65% of AALC’s revenue, a slight drop from 71% in FY2017. The changes
in the proportion of patient origin reflects AAMG’s effort in bringing in patients from other regions such as

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
The Board considers four of AAMG’s directors as independent under the guidelines.
In assessing the independence of directors, the Board follows the ASX guidelines as set out:
An independent director is a non-executive director (i.e. is not a member of management) and:
•
Is not a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with,
a substantial shareholder of the Company;
• Within the last three years has not been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or
another Group member, or been a director after ceasing to hold any such employment;
• Within the last three years has not been a principal of a material professional adviser or a material
consultant to the Company or another Group member, or an employee materially associated with the
service provided;
Is not a material supplier or customer of the Company or other Group member, or an officer of or
otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer;
•
• Has no material contractual relationship with the Company or another Group member other than as a
director of the Company;
• Has not served on the Board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially
•
interfere with the director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company; and
Is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be
perceived to, materially interfere with the director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company.
ASXCGC Recommendation 2.1 states that the majority of directors of the Company should be independent
and AAMG does comply with that recommendation.
Where additional skills are considered necessary for specific purposes, access is made to independent
professional advice at the expense of the Company. Such advice is to be shared amongst the directors.
CHAIRMAN
Due to the size of the Company, Dato’ Dr Kai Chah Tan is the Company’s Chairman. While recognising that the
ASXCGC recommends that the chairperson be independent, the Company feels that the strong independence
exercised by the other Board members mitigates any negative impact on the Company that it may have.
APPOINTMENT TO THE BOARD
Where a casual vacancy arises during the year, the Board has procedures to select the most suitable candidate
with the appropriate experience and expertise to ensure a balanced and effective Board. Any director
appointed during the year to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the current Board, holds office until the
next Annual General Meeting and is then eligible for re-election by the shareholders.
New directors receive a letter of appointment which sets out the terms of their appointment. On appointment,
an induction programme is available to directors that include one-on-one sessions with members of the
senior management team.

EVALUATION OF SENIOR EXECUTIVES
Senior executives, including the Group Chief Operating Officer, Group Chief Financial Officer or Chief
Commercial Officer have a formal job description and letter of appointment describing their term of office,
duties, rights, responsibilities and entitlements upon termination.
The performance of senior executives is reviewed annually before the budgets are approved for the next
financial year. This process is a formal one with the executive’s performance assessed against Company,
division and personal benchmarks by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Benchmarks are agreed
with the respective senior executives and reviews are based upon the degree of achievement against those
benchmarks.

legal obligations and the expectations of its stakeholders. The Company is committed to being a socially
responsible corporate citizen, using honest and fair business practices, to act in the best interests of clients
so as to achieve the best outcome for shareholders.
The Board has procedures in place for reporting any matters that may give rise to unethical practices or
conflicts between the interests of a director or senior executive and those of the Company. These procedures
are reviewed as required by the Board. To this end, the Company has adopted a Conflict of Interest Policy
that clarifies the processes for directors and senior executives to determine and disclose when a conflict of
interest exists.
DIVERSITY POLICY
The Company values diversity and recognises the benefits it can bring to the organisation’s ability to achieve
its goals. Our recruitment processes encourage the development of diversity in our workplace, bearing in
mind that employees must have the required skills to be successful in their positions.

following objectives in relation to gender diversity. We currently meet our objectives but will continue to
monitor and improve on our objectives to be in line with our Company’s needs and direction. A written
diversity policy has been developed by the Board to ensure gender diversity.

A.
PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION
The principles of the Group’s executive strategy and supporting incentive programs and frameworks are:
•
•
•
to align rewards to business outcomes that deliver value to shareholders;
to drive a high performance culture by setting challenging objectives and rewarding high performing
individuals; and
to ensure remuneration is competitive in the relevant employment market place to support the
attraction, motivation and retention of executive talent.
AAMG has structured a remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the
reward strategy of the Group.
The Board has established a Nomination and Remuneration Committee (“NRC”) which operates in accordance
with its charter as approved by the Board and is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation
arrangements for the Directors and the Executive Team.
The NRC, consisting of at least two non-executive directors, is responsible for making recommendations
on remuneration policies and packages applicable to Board members and for approval of remuneration for
executive officers of the Group taking into account the financial position of the Consolidated Group. The
board remuneration policy per the formal charter is to ensure the remuneration package properly reflects
the person’s duties and responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and
motivating people of the highest quality.
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 201831
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
The Constitution of the Company specifies that the aggregate remuneration of directors, other than salaries
paid to executive directors, shall be determined from time to time by general meeting. An amount not
exceeding the amount determined is divided between those directors as they agree. The latest determination
was at the Annual General Meeting held on 23 November 2009 when shareholders approved an aggregate
remuneration pool of A$200,000 per annum.
The Board as a whole determines the amount of the fees paid to each non-executive director. The
amount proposed to be paid to each non-executive director during the year is A$15,450-A$25,750 (2017:
A$15,450-A$25,750).
The remuneration structure that has been adopted by the Group consists of the following components:
•
•
fixed remuneration being annual salary; and
short term incentives, being employee share schemes and bonuses.
The NRC assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration on a periodic basis by reference
to recent employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit
from the retention of a high-quality Board and Executive Team.
The payment of bonuses, share options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the NRC annually as
part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All
bonuses, options and incentives must be linked to pre-determined performance criteria.
SHORT TERM INCENTIVE (“STI”)
AAMG performance measures involve the use of annual performance objectives, metrics, performance
appraisals and continuing emphasis on living the Company values.
The performance measures are set annually after consultation with the directors and executives and are
specifically tailored to the areas where each executive has a level of control. The measures target areas the
Board believes hold the greatest potential for expansion and profit and cover financial and non-financial
measures.
The Key Performance Indicators (“KPI’s”) for the Executive Team are summarised as follows:
Performance area:
•
•
financial - operating profit and earnings per share; and
non-financial - strategic goals set by each individual business unit based on job descriptions.
The STI Program incorporates both cash and share-based components for the Executive Team and other
employees.
The Board may, at its discretion, award bonuses for exceptional performance in relation to each person’s pre-
agreed KPIs.
VOTING AND COMMENTS MADE AT THE COMPANY’S LAST ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
AAMG received more than 100% of ‘yes’ votes on its Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 31

During the year, AAMG paid a premium to insure officers of the Group. The officers of the Group covered by
the insurance policy include all directors.
The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may
be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Group, and any other payments arising from
liabilities incurred by the officers in connection with such proceedings, other than where such liabilities arise
out of conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their
position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else to cause detriment to the Group.
Details of the amount of the premium paid in respect of insurance policies are not disclosed as such disclosure
is prohibited under the terms of the contract.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
NON-AUDIT SERVICES
During the year, Grant Thornton, the Group’s auditors, performed certain other services in addition to their
statutory audit duties.
The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor and, in accordance
with written advice provided by resolution of the Audit Committee, is satisfied that the provision of those
non-audit services during the year is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
• All non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Group
and have been reviewed by the Audit Committee to ensure they do not impact upon the impartiality
and objectivity of the auditor; and
The non-audit services do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as
set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or
auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Group,
acting as an advocate for the Group or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
•
Details of the amounts paid to the auditors of the Group, Grant Thornton, and its related practices for audit
and non-audit services provided during the year are set out in Note 7 to the Financial Statements.
AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required by section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001
for the year ended 31 August 2018 has been received as set out immediately following the end of the Directors’
Report.
The Report of Directors is signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 August 2018
1.
2.
(a)
Principle activities
Asian American Medical Group Limited (“AAMG” or “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia.
The consolidated financial report of the Company as at and for year ended 31 August 2018 comprises
the Company and its controlled entities. The principal activity of AAMG is that of provision of
specialised medical services for liver diseases and transplantation, radiation and oncology, healthcare
project management and consultancy services and healthcare real estate.
AAMG is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing financial statements.
Statement of significant accounting policies
This financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of AAMG and controlled
entities (“Consolidated Group” or “Group”).
Basis of preparation
The consolidated general purpose financial statements of the Group have been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of the Corporation Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and
other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Compliance with
Australian Accounting Standards results in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below
and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
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-current assets, financial assets
and financial liabilities.
The consolidated final report is presented in Singapore Dollars (SGD or S$) as a significant portion of
the group’s activity is denominated in Singapore Dollars.
These consolidated financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 2
November 2018.
(b)
Principles of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent company and all of its subsidiaries as
of 31 August 2018. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns
from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power
over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of 31 August, except for Gold Bell Asia
American Healthcare Ventures Company, a newly incorporated subsidiary who has a reporting date
of 31 March.
All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including
unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on
intragroup asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment
from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been
adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the
year are recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as
applicable.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or
loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or
loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their
respective ownership interests.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(c)
Business combinations
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses and
results in the consolidation of its assets and liabilities.
A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination
involving entities or businesses under common control. The acquisition method requires that for each
business combination one of the combining entities must be identified as the acquirer (i.e. parent
entity). The business combination will be accounted for as at the acquisition date, which is the
date that control over the acquiree is obtained by the parent entity. At this date, the parent shall
recognise, in the consolidated accounts, and subject to certain limited exceptions, the fair value of the
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, contingent liabilities of the acquiree
will be recognised where a present obligation has been incurred and its fair value can be reliably
measured.
The acquisition may result in the recognition of goodwill (refer Note 2(j)) or a gain from a bargain
purchase. The method adopted for the measurement of goodwill will impact on the measurement of
any non-controlling interest to be recognised in the acquiree where less than 100% ownership interest
is held in the acquiree.
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the
acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment
in the separate financial statements. Consideration may comprise the sum of the assets transferred
by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree and the entity
interest issued by the acquirer.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the profit or
loss.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or
loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income
or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on
their respective ownership interests.
(d)
Income tax
The income tax expense (benefit) for the year comprises current income tax expense (benefit) and
deferred tax expense (benefit).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income
calculated using applicable income tax rates that have been 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 (benefit) is charged or credited directly to equity instead
of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
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.
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 when management expects
to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the
assumption that no adverse change will occur in income tax legislation and the anticipation that
the Company will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and
comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
(e)
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
The cost of inventories includes direct costs associated with the purchase of inventory including
transportation costs.
(f)
Property, plant and equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.
Property, plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment
losses.
The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure
it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed
on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and
subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in
determining recoverable amounts.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow
to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are
charged to the profit or loss during the financial year in which they are incurred.
Depreciation
The depreciation of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight line basis over the asset’s useful life to
the Consolidated Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of fixed asset
Office equipment
Medical equipment
Computers
Furniture and fittings
Leasehold Improvements
Building
Depreciation Rate
5 years
5 years
5 years
5 years
4 years
30 years
The asset’s 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 and losses are included in the profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(g)
Leases
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the
lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
The economic ownership of a leased asset is transferred to the lessee if the lessee bears substantially
all the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the leased asset. The related asset is then
recognised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the present
value of the lease payments plus incidental payments, if any. A corresponding amount is recognised
as a finance leasing liability, irrespective of whether some of these lease payments are payable up-
front at the date of inception of the lease. Leases of land and buildings are classified separately and
are split into a land and a building element, in accordance with the relative fair values of the leasehold
interests at the date the asset is recognised initially.
Depreciation methods and useful lives for assets held under finance lease agreements correspond to
those applied to comparable assets which are legally owned by the Group. The corresponding finance
leasing liability is reduced by lease payments less finance charges, which are expensed as part of
finance costs.
The interest element of leasing payments represents a constant proportion of the capital balance
outstanding and is charged to profit or loss over the period of the lease.
(h)
Financial instruments
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
company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is
adopted). 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 the profit or loss immediately.
Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at either fair value, amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method or cost. Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value.
The Group does not designate any interest in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being
subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.
(i) 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.
(ii) Held-to-maturity investments
These investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or
determinable payments, and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They
are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
(iii) Available for sale financial assets
Available for sale financial assets are non-derivative assets that are either not suitable to be 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.
Available for sale financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those which are
expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting year.

47
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(iv) Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at
amortised cost.
(v) Fair value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques
are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length
transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial
instrument has been impaired.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or
the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing
involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised
where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the
carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value
of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in
profit or loss.
Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication
exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell
and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value
over its recoverable amount is expensed to the profit or loss.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill.
Intangibles
Goodwill
Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of
the sum of:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
the consideration transferred;
any non-controlling interest; and
the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interests
over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill on acquisition of
subsidiaries is included in intangible assets.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and is allocated to the Group’s cash generating units or
groups of cash generating units, which represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored by
where such level is not larger than an operating segment.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(k)
Investments in associates and joint arrangements
Associates are those entities over which the Group is able to exert significant influence but which are
not subsidiaries.
A joint venture is an arrangement that the Group controls jointly with one or more other investors, and
over which the Group has rights to a share of the arrangement’s net assets rather than direct rights
to underlying assets and obligations for underlying liabilities. A joint arrangement in which the Group
has direct rights to underlying assets and obligations for underlying liabilities is classified as a joint
operation.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Interests in
joint operations are accounted for by recognising the Group’s assets (including its share of any assets
held jointly), its liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly), its revenue from the
sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, its share of the revenue from the sale
of the output by the joint operation and its expenses (including its share of any expenses incurred
jointly).
Any goodwill or fair value adjustment attributable to the Group’s share in the associate or joint venture
is not recognised separately and is included in the amount recognised as investment.
The carrying amount of the investment in associates and joint ventures is increased or decreased to
recognise the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate
and joint venture, adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies of the
Group.
Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures
are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in those entities. Where unrealised losses are
eliminated, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment.
(l)
Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary
economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are
presented in Singapore dollars which is the Group’s functional and presentation currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into 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 the statement of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash
flow or net investment hedge.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in
equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange
difference is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2018

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year; and
retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences are charged or credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the
foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
(m) Employee benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by
employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year are
measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs.
Employee benefits payable later than one year are measured at the present value of the estimated
future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Those cash flows are discounted using market
yields on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash
flows.
Central Provident Fund (“CPF”)/Superannuation contributions: The Group makes contributions to
the Central Provident Fund scheme in Singapore and Superannuation scheme in Australia, a defined
contribution post-employment or pension scheme. Contributions to post-employment benefits under
defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss as incurred.
Equity-settled compensation: The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee
share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is
measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding
increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair
value of options is ascertained using a binomial option pricing model which incorporates all market
vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at
the end of each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration
for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually
vest.
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.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, demand deposits held with banks, other short-term
highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject
to an insignificant risk of changes in values.
Revenue and other income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue from sale
of medication is recognised upon delivery of the medication to the patient. Revenue from rendering
of medical services such as medical consultation, surgery and transplantation is recognised upon
completion of the consultation or procedure. Management services fees are recognised upon the
rendering of management and consultancy services to and accepted by the customer.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial
assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument.
Management fees revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract.
All revenue is stated net of goods and services tax (“GST”).

Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting year for goods
and services received by the Group during the reporting year which remains unpaid. The balance
is recognised as a current liability with the amount being normally paid within 30 days of initial
recognition.
Goods and services tax
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 Tax Office (“ATO”) or Inland Revenue Authority
of Singapore (“IRAS”). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition
of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated in the statement of financial position inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO or IRAS is included as a current asset
or liability in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash
flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the
ATO or IRAS are classified as operating cash flows.
(s)
Share-based employee remuneration
The Group operates equity-settled share-based remuneration plans for its employees. None of the
Group’s plans feature any options for a cash settlement.
All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any share-based payment are measured
at their fair values. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair values of
employees’ services are determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments
granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting
conditions (for example profitability and sales growth targets and performance conditions).
All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a
corresponding credit to ‘share option reserve’.
If vesting periods or other vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period,
based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Non-market
vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to
become exercisable. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of
share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to
vesting is recognised in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognised in prior
periods if share options ultimately exercised are different to that estimated on vesting.
Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction
costs up are allocated to share capital.
(t)
Transaction costs on the issue of equity instruments
Transaction costs arising from the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity as a
reduction of the proceeds of the equity instruments to which the costs relate. Transaction costs are
the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the issue of those equity instruments and which
would not have been incurred had those instruments not been issued.

Financial
Instruments:

AASB 9 introduces new requirements
for the classification and measurement

includes a forward-looking ‘expected
loss’ impairment model and a
substantially-changed approach to
hedge accounting.
These requirements improve and
simplify the approach for classification
and measurement of financial assets
compared with the requirements of
AASB 139. The main changes are:
a Financial assets that are debt
instruments will be classified based
on: (i) the objective of the entity’s
business model for managing
the financial assets; and (ii) the
characteristics of the contractual
cash flows.
b Allows an irrevocable election on
initial recognition to present gains
and losses on investments in equity
instruments that are not held for
trading in other comprehensive
income (instead of in profit or
loss). Dividends in respect of these
investments that are a return on
investment can be recognised
in profit or loss and there is no
impairment or recycling on disposal
of the instrument.
c Introduces a ‘fair value through
other comprehensive income’
measurement category for
particular simple debt instruments.
d Financial assets can be designated
and measured at fair value through
profit or loss at initial recognition if
doing so eliminates or significantly
reduces a measurement or
recognition inconsistency that
would arise from measuring assets
or liabilities, or recognising the gains
and losses on them, on different
bases.
e Where the fair value option is used
for financial liabilities the change in
fair value is to be accounted for as
follows:
•
to changes in credit risk
are presented in Other
Comprehensive Income (OCI)
•
the remaining change is
presented in profit or loss

If this approach creates or enlarges
an accounting mismatch in the
profit or loss, the effect of the
changes in credit risk are also
presented in profit or loss.

The adoption of this amendments has not had a material impact on the Group.
(w) Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report based on
historical knowledge and best available information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of
future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within
the Group.
(x)
(y)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income by the weighted-average number of shares
outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year, assuming that all potentially dilutive
securities were exercised, if dilutive.
Key Estimates and Judgements
Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions and events specific to
the Group that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable
amount of the asset is determined. Value in use calculations and valuations from independent
valuers are performed and used in assessing recoverable amounts, these calculations and valuations
incorporate a number of key estimates.
Please refer to Note 12 and 15 with respect to Management’s consideration of impairment of trade and
other receivables and goodwill respectively, as at 31 August 2018.
Business combinations
Management uses valuation techniques in determining the fair values of the various elements of
a business combination (see Note 2(c)). Particularly, the fair value of contingent consideration is
dependent on the outcome of many variables that affect future profitability (see Note 8).
Recognition of tax losses
Management has applied judgement to recognise the unused tax losses carried forward and differences
in tax depreciation of plant and equipment to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits
will be available against which they can be utilised.

Gain on Purchase on Acquisition of HDSB
On 6 March 2018, MHV, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AAMG, completed its acquisition of 95.1% of
HDSB which resulted in the recognition of gain on purchase, recognised in the profit or loss statement.
Prior to the acquisition, HDSB was wholly-owned by Dato’ Dr Kai Chah Tan, the Executive Chairman
and single largest shareholder of AAMG. HDSB owns a five acres parcel of land in Iskandar Puteri,
in the Southern Malaysian state of Johor and intends to develop this land into an integrated cancer
centre. AAMG will provide overall strategic services to assist with project development of the land.
Details of the transactions are as follows:

The acquisition of HDSB was settled partially in shares and cash, amounting to S$4,296,060 and
S$1,892,855 respectively. 40,000,000 shares were issued at an issued price of A$0.105. Acquisition
related costs amounting to S$52,000 are not included as part of consideration transferred and
have been recognised as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, as part of ‘other expenses’.
Fair value of the net assets as at acquisition date, comprising of five acres land, a construction in
progress building and other payables, exceeds the total purchase consideration, resulting in a gain
on bargain purchase.
Conditions precedent to the subscription agreement for the acquisition dated 20 October 2017
was met on 2 March 2018 and shares allotment to MHV was completed on 6 March 2018. Upon the
successful allotment of shares, AAMG controls 95.1% of HDSB.
HDSB contributed a net loss of S$105,000 to the consolidated profit for the financial year from 1
September 2017 to 31 August 2018. If HDSB has been acquired on 1 September 2017, intercompany
management fees of S$391,000 would be eliminated and pre-acquisition net losses of S$14,000
would be accounted in the consolidated profit.

attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year.
Diluted earnings or loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the year
attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that
would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.

Current trade and term receivables are non-interest bearing loans and generally on 60 - 120 days
terms. A provision for impairment is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual
trade or term receivable is impaired. The Group reviews its trade receivables for evidence of
impairment on a regular basis. The trade receivable consists mainly amounts owing by the United
Arab Emirates (“UAE”) government agencies. Management holds regular meetings with the
agencies relating to patient care feedback and collection of amounts outstanding. Management
is of the opinion that the trade receivables are recoverable and hence, no impairment is required.
b Credit risk
The group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counter party
or group of counter parties.
The following table details the Group’s trade receivables exposed to credit risk with ageing analysis.
Amounts are considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled, with the terms and
conditions agreed between the Group and the customer or counter party (more than 60 days) to the
transaction. Receivables that are past due are assessed for impairment by ascertaining solvency of
the debtors and are provided for where there are specific circumstances indicating that the debt may
not be fully repaid to the Group.
The balances of receivables that remain within initial trade terms are considered to be high credit
quality.
The ageing profile of the trade receivables as at 31 August 2018 as as follows:

The recoverable amount of a CGU is based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations are
based on projected cash flows approved by management covering a period not exceeding five
years. Management’s determination of cash flow projections and gross margins are based on past
performance and its expectation for the future. The present value of future cash flows has been
calculated using a discount rate of 10% and a growth rate of 5% per annum to determine value-in-use.
In the last financial year, the liver segment incurred a loss and as the Management is uncertain about
the profitability of AALC in the coming years, the Group wrote-off its goodwill of S$266,123 in FY2017.

AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components
of the Consolidated Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, the
Board of Directors (chief operating decision makers), in order to allocate resources to the segment
and to assess its performance. The Consolidated Group has identified its operating segments to be as
follows based on distinct operational activities:
(i) Provision of medical consultation and services in the hepatology and related fields
(liver segment); and
(ii) Provision of medical consultation and services in the radiation and oncology and related fields
(radiation and oncology segment);
(iii) Provision of healthcare management and consultancy services (management and consultancy
segment);
(iv) Development of real estate projects (healthcare real estate segment), established through
acquisition of HDSB (see Note 8); and
(v) Provision of corporate management services (corporate segment).
This is the basis on which internal reports are provided to the Board of Directors for assessing
performance and determining the allocation of resources within the Consolidated Group. Unless
stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief decision maker
with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are
consistent to those adopted in the Annual Financial Statements of the group.
The current Consolidated Group operates primarily in four businesses, namely the provision of medical
consultation and services in the hepatology, radiation and oncology, healthcare management and its
related field advisory and healthcare real estate. The corporate segment relates to administrative
expenses at Group level.
Details of the performance of each of these operating segments for the financial years ended 31
August 2018 and 31 August 2017 are set out in the following pages:

Financial risk management policies
The Board is responsible for monitoring and managing financial risk exposures of the Group.
Specific financial risk exposures and management
The main risk the Group is exposed to include foreign exchange risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and
treasury management risk.
(a) Foreign exchange risk
Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial
instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the
Group holds financial instruments which are other than the functional currency of the Group
which is the Singapore dollar.
(i) Risk management
The Group’s transactions are predominantly in it functional currency which is the Singapore
dollar. The amount of asset and liability held in foreign currency is not considered material
to the Group and hence does not hedge these asset or liability.
(ii) Sensitivity analysis
Foreign exchange risk
A sensitivity analysis of the impact of foreign exchange risk is not shown as it is not
considered material to the Group at the reporting date.
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 201874
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(b) Credit risk exposures
Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as
contracted.
The credit risk on financial assets of the entity which have been recognised in the statement of
financial position, is the carrying amount, net of any allowance for credit losses.
Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures which ensure to the extent
possible, that customers and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness. Such
monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment.
Apart from the allowance for credit losses as disclosed in Note 12, no other receivables are
considered past due or impaired.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its
debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities.
All financial assets and liabilities as disclosed above have maturities within one year for the 31
August 2018 financial year.
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows.
(d) Treasury risk management
The Board meets on a regular basis to analyse financial risk exposure and evaluate treasury
management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts. The
Board’s overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Consolidated Group in meeting its
financial targets, whilst maintaining the effects on financial performance. Risk is also minimised
through investing surplus funds in financial institutions that maintain a high credit rating or in
entities that the Board has otherwise cleared as being financially sound.
(e) Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
in an ordinary transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The carrying values of financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Members of Asian American Medical Group Limited
Report on the audit of the financial report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Asian American Medical Group Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 August 2018, the consolidated
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and
consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements,
including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the Directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
a giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 August 2018 and of its performance for the year
ended on that date; and
b complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are
independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and
the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in
forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matter
Revenue recognition – note 2(p), 3 and 12
The Group generated S$17,477,029 in revenue for the year
ended 31 August 2018. Revenue is predominately generated
from specialised medical services which are driven by patient
volumes. Revenue from the sale of medication is recognised
at the point of delivery to the patient. There is a risk of
improper revenue recognition, particularly with the occurrence
of revenues at year end given the significant size of accounts
receivable at 31 August 2018.
Revenue was considered a key audit matter as it represents a
key measurement of the Group’s performance and growth.
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Documenting the processes and assessing the internal
controls relating to revenue processing and recognition
for significant revenue streams;
Performing analytical procedures by comparing against
audit expectations to understand the movements and
trends in revenue;
Analysing a sample of revenue transactions from the
general ledger to source data to confirm appropriate
revenue recognition had been applied;
Performing cut off testing to ensure that revenue
transactions around year end have been recorded in the
correct period;
Reviewing the aging profiles of accounts receivable to
identify any issues in aging that warrant further
investigation;
Confirming a sample of customer balances to subsequent
receipts, contracts and invoices, and government
guarantees where applicable; and
Assessing the adequacy of the Group's revenue
disclosures within the financial statements.
Gain on purchase relating to acquisition of HDSB – note
2(c) and 8
On 6 March 2018, Million Health Ventures Pte Ltd ("MVH")
completed the acquisition of 95.1% Hippocrates Development
Sdn Bhd (“HDSB”). Prior to the acquisition, HDSB was wholly
owned by Dato’ Dr Tan Kai Chah, the Executive Chairman
and single largest shareholder of AAMG.
In accordance with AASB 3 Business Combinations, a
business combination is accounted for by applying the
acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities
or businesses under common control.
The Group has determined that the transaction, which
completed on 6 March 2018, met the conditions in AASB 3
and applied the acquisition method of accounting resulting in a
bargain gain on purchase of $1,560,772.
This area is a key audit matter due to the technical complexity
of the transaction, the judgements and estimates used in the
valuation of net assets acquired and the allocation of the
purchase price, which resulted in the bargain gain on
acquisition.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Reviewing the terms and conditions of the share
purchase agreement;
Reviewing management’s technical accounting position
paper relating to the transaction, including assessment of
the sufficiency of the judgements and estimates taken in
accounting for this acquisition under AASB 3;
Evaluating management’s expert engaged in the
valuation of the key asset acquired in the business
combination;
Reviewing the report prepared by the valuation expert in
relation to the valuation of the key asset acquired in the
business combination;
Evaluating the assessment performed by auditors
experts, used in the assessment of the purchase price
allocation; and
Assessing the adequacy of the Group's disclosures within
the financial statements.
Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the
Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 August 2018, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
CREATING A LASTING LEGACY IN HEALTHCAREASIAN AMERICAN MEDICAL GROUP LIMITEDANNUAL REPORT 2018

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that 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 gives a true and fair view and is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern,
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the
Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing
Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance
Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf. This description forms part of our
auditor’s report.
Report on the remuneration report
Opinion on the remuneration report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the Directors’ report for the year ended 31 August 2018.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Asian American Medical Group Limited, for the year ended 31 August 2018
complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Responsibilities
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report,
