Chairman's letter
Over the last year we have continued to focus on building capabilities within our investee companies that will ultimately assist
us in transforming the group into a high growth and sustainable business. We have remained disciplined in the way that we
operate our investee companies, and at the same time remained very active in scoping and evaluating new and transformative
opportunities. We are particularly interested in potential acquisitions that we believe could add significantly to our scale and
long-term growth prospects. The Board maintains a high level of confidence in the company's ability to identify, fund and to
complete such investments, all the while ensuring that we operate within the prescribed rules of a Pooled Development Fund.
Our cash position at 30 June 2018 was $2.65 million and our investment plan remains fully compliant with the requirements of
being a registered Pooled Development Fund (PDF). The Board recognises the tremendous potential value that the PDF status
confers and will continue to take all reasonable steps to maintain this.
In April we divested our interests in the advisory firm Biointelect, given that this investment did not deliver the anticipated
outcomes and returns to the group. This re-enforced our view that shareholders’ interests are better served by keeping a clear
focus on the in-licensing and product distribution elements of our business.
In November we changed the company name to BTC health in order to more effectively communicate the strategic intent of the
group and better position the business as a credible provider of innovative pharmaceutical products and medical devices. We
believe that our growth strategy will in time benefit from the combined factors of an ageing population, broader access to
healthcare and a constant stream of new medical technologies that are being brought to market.
Our Bio101 business which provides accounting, tax and company administration services continued to grow its client base and
service offering during the year. I am pleased to report that the business consistently performed ahead of expectations and as
such we increased the fair value of this investment by $144,900. We expect this positive trend will continue over the next 12
months.
BioImpact is our investee company which has the specific purpose of acquiring intellectual property rights to novel
pharmaceutical products and medical devices from a range of third parties around the world. It has successfully acquired the
distribution rights for three products from RLS Global in Sweden and more recently it has established a strong pipeline of
potential new product opportunities, some of which are presently under evaluation and/or negotiation.
BTC Speciality Health was established during the year as the operating entity which is responsible for the commercialisation of
our in-licensed products. It now has third party logistics and wholesaling arrangements in place and in June launched two dental
products, CariSolv and PeriSolv into the Victorian market. The team will be working towards national distribution for these
products during the current financial year, as well as seeking TGA approval for the novel wound care product ChloraSolv.
We are optimistic about the company's prospects for the year ahead and we look forward to providing relevant updates to
shareholders as appropriate. On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank you for your continued support of BTC health.
Dr. Richard S Treagus

Directors’ Report
The directors of BTC health Limited present their report on the audited financial statements of BTC health Limited (formerly
Biotech Capital Limited) for the year ended 30 June 2018.
Directors
The following persons were directors of BTC health Limited (“the Company”) during the whole of the financial year and up to
the date of this report, unless stated otherwise:
Richard Spencer Treagus
Peter John Jones
Bruce Alan Hancox (resigned 31 May 2018)
Jonathan Charles Pilcher
Jennifer Rachel Herz (resigned 20 April 2018)
Principal Activities
BTC health is a Pooled Development Fund, registered under the Pooled Development Funds Act 1992. The Company continues
to actively seek investment opportunities in entities operating in the biotechnology / life-science sectors.
Review of Operations and Results
BTC health invested in one new investee company during the financial year being BTC Speciality Health Pty Ltd. BTC health
invested a total of $175,100 in a combination of share capital and loans to BTC Speciality Health Pty Ltd. BTC Speciality Health
commercialises and distributes the BTC health group’s in-licenced pharmaceuticals and medical devices in the Asia/Pacific
region. BTC health Limited changed its company name from Biotech Capital Limited in November 2017.
BTC health Limited disposed of its fully owned investment in Biointelect Pty Ltd for $700,000 in April 2018 to a related party of
Jennifer Herz. The transaction was deemed to be fair and reasonable by an independent expert and was approved at an
extraordinary meeting of shareholders. The sale of Biointelect Pty Ltd for $700,000 resulted in an impairment loss of $721,815
and a loan write-off of $280,000.
Revenue from continuing operations for the year increased to $62,937 (2017: $28,496). Operating loss after income tax increased
to $1,467,834 (2017: $516,527), mainly due to the loss on sale of Biointelect, partially offset by an increase of $144,900 in the
fair value recorded for 100% owned investment Bio101group Pty Ltd.
Net cash used in operating activities was $555,524 (2017: 388,366). Net cash generated by investing activities was $118,940
with the proceeds from sale of Biointelect partly offset by increases in loans to investee companies. Net cash generated by
financing activities was nil, compared with $2,324,128 in the prior year due to the capital raise in February 2017. At the annual
general meeting of shareholders in November 2017, shareholders approved the issue to Directors, Officers and related parties the
shares that were taken up as a part of the February 2017 capital raise.
Financial Position
At 30 June 2018, the company’s net assets were $2,973,002 compared with $3,978,873 at 30 June 2017. Net assets fell in the
year mainly due to the loss on sale of Biointelect. Cash reserves as at 30 June 2018 were $2,649,629, compared with $3,086,213
at 30 June 2017. The net tangible asset backing per share as at 30 June 2018 equated to 2.27 cents (2017: 3.13 cents).
Dividends
No dividends have been declared in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2018. (2017: nil)
Business Strategies and Future Prospects
BTC health’s investee company Bio101 provides a range of professional services to high-growth biotech, medtech and
pharmaceutical companies. BioImpact will continue to invest in and hold intellectual property rights for pharmaceuticals and
medical devices and BTC Speciality Health will continue to commercialise and distribute the BTC health group’s in-licenced
pharmaceuticals and medical devices in the Asia/Pacific region.
BTC health is committed to supporting its investee companies’ business objectives in order that they grow their respective
service offerings, client base, revenues and ultimately their profitability. BTC health will carefully evaluate additional
investment opportunities in the life sciences sector, more specifically, technologies and companies that in the Board’s view will
benefit from greater access to management expertise and development capital.

Share based payments
Jennifer Herz received share-based payments in the form of unlisted options during 2017. As detailed in note 10, share options
awarded to Jennifer and Karl Herz were forfeited as at 20 April 2018 resulting in the reversal of share-based payment expense
recognised in prior years.
No other director of the Company received any share-based payments as part of their remuneration during the financial year
ended 30 June 2017 or 2018.
Remuneration Practices
No director appointed during the period received a payment as part of his or her consideration for agreeing to hold the position.
The remuneration of each director has been established on the basis of a flat fee, inclusive of any superannuation benefit. Thus,
there is no direct link between performance and the level of remuneration.

Transactions with directors and director related entities
On 20 April 2018, Jennifer Herz’s related party the Herz Family Trust purchased 100% of the share capital of Biointelect Pty
Ltd which was an investment wholly owned by BTC health. Biointelect was sold for cash consideration of $700,000.
In determining the sale price, the BTC health Board reviewed the financial performance of the Biointelect business, made a
reasonable estimation of future returns on capital employed and considered the realisable value of the investment. The BTC
board obtained an independent expert report for the transaction which was distributed to shareholders. The related party
transaction was considered both fair and reasonable by an independent valuer and was approved at an extraordinary meeting of
shareholders.
The terms and conditions of other transactions with directors and their director related entities were no more favourable than
those available or which might reasonably be expected to be available, on similar transactions to non-director entities on an
arm’s length basis.

Corporate Governance Statement
BTC health’s board of directors (“Board”) aims to ensure that the company operates with a corporate governance framework
and practices that promote an appropriate governance culture throughout the organisation and that are relevant, practical and
cost-effective for the current size and stage of development of the business. The Board will continue to review the framework
and practices as the business size and complexity changes. The corporate governance statement was adopted 21 August 2018.
A description of the framework and practices is set out below, laid out under the structure of the ASX Listing Rules and the
Corporate Governance Principles (the “Principles”) and Recommendations (the “Recommendations”) 3rd Edition issued by the
ASX Corporate Governance Council in March 2014.
Principle 1.
Lay solid foundations for management and oversight:
The Board is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the company. The Board acts on behalf of and is accountable to
the shareholders. The Board seeks to identify the expectations of shareholders as well as other regulatory and ethical
expectations and obligations. The Board is responsible for identifying areas of significant business risk and ensuring
mechanisms are in place to manage those risks adequately. In addition, the Board sets the overall strategic goals and objectives,
and monitors achievement of goals.
The Board has delegated the responsibility for the operation and administration of the company to the Executive Chairman and
the Company Secretary. The Board will ensure that management is appropriately qualified to discharge its responsibilities.
The Board will ensure management’s objectives and activities are aligned with the expectations and risks identified by the
Board through a number of mechanisms including the following:
•
•
•
•
•
establishment of the overall strategic direction and leadership of the company;
approving and monitoring the implementation by management of the company’s strategic plan to achieve those
objectives;
reviewing performance against its stated objectives, by receiving regular management reports on business situation,
opportunities and risks;
monitoring and review of the companies controls and systems including those concerned with regulatory matters to
ensure statutory compliance and the highest ethical standards; and
review and adoption of budgets and forecasts and monitoring the results against stated targets.
The Board sets the corporate strategy and financial targets with the aim of creating long-term value for shareholders.
In accordance with Recommendation 1.2, the Board undertakes appropriate checks before appointing a new director, or putting
forward to shareholders a candidate for election and provides shareholders with all material information in its possession
relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect or re-elect a director.
The company has written agreements with each director of the company in accordance with Recommendation 1.3. The
Company Secretary is accountable directly to the Board on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board, in
accordance with Recommendation 1.4.
At this stage of the company’s development, considering the very small size of the workforce, the Board has chosen not to
establish a formal diversity policy or formal objectives for gender diversity, as described in Recommendation 1.5. The company
does not discriminate on the basis of age, ethnicity or gender and when a position becomes vacant the company seeks to employ
the best candidate available for the position. Currently all three directors are male.
Given the size and nature of the company a formal process for evaluating the performance of the Board and the directors in
accordance with Recommendation 1.6 has not been developed. The company currently has no senior executives other than the
Chairman and therefore does not have a process for evaluating their performance, as described in Recommendation 1.7.
Principle 2.
Structure the Board to add value
The Board has not considered it necessary or value-adding to establish a separate Nomination Committee (Recommendation
2.1). The selection, appointment and retirement of directors is considered by the full Board, within the framework of the skills
required. The Board may also engage an external consultant where appropriate to identify and assess suitable candidates who
meet the Board’s specifications. The composition of the board is discussed regularly and each director may propose changes for
discussion.
9
BTC health Limited
The company does not currently have a skills matrix setting out the mix of skills that the Board seeks to achieve in its
membership (recommendation 2.2), due to the current structure and size of the company.
The current Board consists of 2 non-executive directors and 1 executive director. The skills and experience of each of the
directors are detailed in the Directors’ Report. Each of the current directors has held office continuously since their date of
appointment and these details are:
Current Directors
R S Treagus appointed 4 August 2014*
P J Jones appointed 4 August 2014*
J C Pilcher appointed 1 September 2015 (independent director)
* R S Treagus and P J Jones are not considered to be independent as they are a related person to substantial shareholders in BTC
health.
The directors believe that the current structure, small size and membership profile of the Board provides the maximum value to
the business at this stage of its development, notwithstanding that they do not follow Recommendations 2.4 and 2.5. The Board
currently does not have a majority of independent directors (Recommendation 2.4) and the chair is not independent
(Recommendation 2.5). The Board will continue to assess whether this is the optimum membership and structure for the
business as it grows and develops.
The company currently does not have a formal program for inducting new directors (Recommendation 2.6), due to the current
structure and size of the company.
Principle 3.
Promote ethical and responsible decision-making
The Board established a formal Code of Conduct on 19 of October 2016, which requires that Board members and executives:
• will act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the whole company
•
•
owe a fiduciary duty to the company as a whole
have a duty to use due care and diligence in fulfilling the functions of office and exercising the powers attached to that

• will demonstrate commercial reasonableness in decision-making
• will not make improper use of information acquired as Directors and key executives
• will not disclose non-public information except where disclosure is authorised or legally mandated
• will keep confidential information received in the course of the exercise of their duties and such information remains
the property of the company from which it was obtained and it is improper to disclose it, or allow it to be disclosed,
unless that disclosure has been authorised by the person from whom the information is provided, or required by law
• will not take improper advantage of the position of Director or use the position for personal gain or to compete with the
company
• will not take advantage of company property or use such property for personal gain or to compete with the company
• will protect and ensure the efficient use of the company’s assets for legitimate business purposes
• will not allow personal interests, or the interest of any associated person, to conflict with the interests of the company
•
have an obligation to be independent in judgement and actions and Directors will take all reasonable steps to be
satisfied as to the soundness of all decisions of the Board
• will make reasonable enquiries to ensure that the company is operating efficiently, effectively and legally, towards
achieving its goals
• will not engage in conduct likely to bring discredit upon the company
10
BTC health Limited
• will encourage fair dealing by all employees with the company’s customers, suppliers, competitors and other
employees
• will encourage the reporting of unlawful/unethical behaviour and actively promote ethical behaviour and protection for
those who report violations in good faith
• will give their specific expertise generously to the company
•
have an obligation, at all times, to comply with the spirit, as well as the letter of the law and with the principles of this
Code of Conduct
Principle 4.
Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
With regards to Recommendation 4.1, The Board has established an Audit Committee, which currently consists of two non-
executive directors, Jon Pilcher and Peter Jones, both of whom have financial qualifications and experience. Bruce Hancox was
a member of the Audit Committee prior to his resignation. The independent director Jon Pilcher chairs the Committee. The
Audit Committee currently does not have three members or have a majority of independent directors. The Audit Committee
prior to the resignation of Bruce Hancox met three times during 2018 and these meetings were attended by all members apart
from one absence by Peter Jones.
The current Committee operates under a charter approved by the Board on the 19 October 2016, a summary of which is
available on the BTC health website.
It is responsible for undertaking a broad review of, ensuring compliance with, and making recommendations in respect of, the
company's internal financial controls and legal compliance obligations. It is also responsible for:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
review of audit assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls over the company’s accounting and
financial reporting systems, including controls over computerised systems;
review of the audit plans and recommendations of the external auditors;
evaluating the extent to which the planned scope of the audit can be relied upon to detect weaknesses in internal
control, fraud and other illegal acts;
review of the results of audits, any changes in accounting practices or policies and subsequent effects on the financial
statements and make recommendations to management where necessary and appropriate;
review of the performance and fees of the external auditor;
oversight of legal compliance including trade practices, corporations law, occupational health and safety and
environmental statutory compliance, and compliance with the Listing Rules of the ASX;
supervision of special investigations when requested by the Board;
In undertaking these tasks, the Audit Committee meets separately with management and external auditors where required.
In accordance with Recommendation 4.2, the Board sought assurances in writing from the Executive Chairman and the
Company Secretary that in their opinion the financial records of the company for the financial year 30 June 2018 were;
(a) properly maintained in accordance with section 286 of the Corporations Act 2001; and
(b) the financial statements, and the notes to the financial statements, of the entity, for the financial year ended 30 June
2018:
a. comply with Accounting Standards, the Corporations Regulations 2001 and other mandatory professional
reporting requirements; and
b. give a true and fair view of the entity's financial position as at 30 June 2018 and of
its performance, as represented by the results of its operations and its cash flows,
for the financial year ended on that date.
The Board received those assurances on 21 August 2018.
In accordance with Recommendation 4.3, the Board ensures that its external auditor attends the AGM and is available to answer
questions from security holders relevant to the audit.

BTC health Limited
Principle 5.
Make timely and balanced disclosure
In accordance with ASX Listing rules, the company will notify ASX of any information which the Board considers would be
likely to have a material effect on the price or value of the company’s securities, or which could influence a person to buy, sell
or hold its securities.
Due to the size and stage of development of the business, the company does not have a formal written policy for complying with
its continuous disclosure obligations (Recommendation 5.1). However, the Board employs review and approval processes that
ensure timely, and balanced disclosure of material information concerning the company, to shareholders and the general public.
The company also has a policy of ensuring that all media comment is provided by the Chairman only.
Principle 6.
Respect the rights of shareholders
The Board strives to communicate effectively with shareholders, give them ready access to balanced and understandable
information about the business and make it easy for them to participate in shareholder meetings.
In accordance with Recommendation 6.1, comprehensive information about the company and its governance is provided via the
website www.btchealth.com.au. This includes information about the Board, as well as corporate governance policies. All
announcements, presentations, financial information and meetings materials disclosed to the ASX are placed on the website, so
that current and historical information can be accessed readily.
The company’s investor relations program facilitates effective two-way communication with investors (Recommendation 6.2).
The Chairman interacts with institutional investors, private investors, analysts and media on an ad hoc basis, conducting
meetings in person or by teleconference and responding personally to enquiries.
The Board seeks practical and cost-effective ways to promote informed participation at shareholder meetings (Recommendation
6.3). This includes providing access to clear and comprehensive meeting materials and electronic proxy voting.
In accordance with Recommendation 6.4, shareholders are provided with and encouraged to use electronic methods to
communicate with the company and with the share registry.
Principle 7. Recognise and manage risk
The Directors have not formed a separate Risk Committee. The Board thus retains direct responsibility, oversight and
management for material business risks. (Recommendation 7.1)
The multiple risks inherent in operating the company and managing its investments are managed by a number of means
designed to avoid or minimise any adverse material financial impact. These include:
-
-
-
reviews by the Board of the scope, practical application and thoroughness of the system of internal control and the
company’s means of recognising and protecting itself against material business risk;
reports from the company’s insurance broker concerning the adequacy of insurance cover.
reports and recommendations received from the external auditor during the process of reviewing the accounts and
internal controls.
The Board has reviewed the required reports noted above (Recommendation 7.2) and consider them adequate to monitor the
effectiveness of managing material business risks. Given that the company’s business focus is upon providing patient equity
capital to new Australian enterprises endeavouring to exploit commercial opportunities in the life-sciences field, the major
financial risk is that the company’s investment will be lost or will materially lose value. This could occur under a variety of
circumstances including where the underlying enterprise subsequently fails, or commercially suffers in a significant way, e.g.
due to marketing difficulties or delays, product failure, serious management or funding problems, etc. The innovative nature of
the investee enterprises also tends to increase the investment risk involved.
The Board endeavours to reduce investment risk by a number of means, including:
-
-
-
-
-
-
requiring all investments to be made in full compliance with the Pooled Development Funds Act 1992 and the general
rationale of the PDF Program;
ensuring proper evaluation of new investment opportunities by means of a thorough due diligence assessment;
ensuring investees have taken proper steps to secure their intellectual property rights;
ensuring each investee has a proper business plan, financial budgets and has established clear, achievable, commercial
goals;
diversifying investment over a number of different companies, each aiming at a different potential market area or niche;
appointing a director to the board of an investee company when possible.
12
BTC health Limited
The Board reviewed the company’s risk management framework and satisfied itself that it continues to be sound on 21 August
2018. (Recommendation 7.2)
The Board considers that it is not necessary to have an internal audit function. The Board processes described above are
adequate, given the size and complexity of the business (Recommendation 7.3).
The company does not have a material exposure to economic, environmental or social sustainability risks. (Recommendation
7.4)
Principle 8. Remunerate fairly and responsibly
The total remuneration pool for non-executive directors is approved by shareholders. There is currently only one executive
director and his executive fee has been determined and agreed upon by the board. The level of the fee was determined by the
directors based on professional experience, market forces and the amount of time required to execute the role.
For these reasons, the Board has not appointed a Remuneration Committee (Recommendation 8.1) and any remuneration
matters are dealt with by the Board. Particulars concerning Directors’ remuneration are set out in the Directors’ Report. The
company’s current policy is that non-executive directors receive only fixed cash remuneration.
In accordance with Recommendation 8.3, any participants in an equity-based remuneration scheme are not permitted to enter
into any transactions (whether through the use of derivatives or otherwise) which limit the economic risk of participating in the
scheme.

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Financial Report of BTC health Limited for the year ended 30 June 2018
This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Australian Accounting
Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report was
authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 21 August 2018
BTC health Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the
Australian Securities Exchange.
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain assets which,
as noted, are at fair value.
Fair value is 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or
estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes
into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into
account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure
purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair
value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can
access at the measurement date;
• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly; and
• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Both the functional currency and presentation currency of BTC health Limited is Australian dollars ($AUD).
For the purpose of preparing the financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
Statement of Compliance
Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements
and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’).
Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards
Amendments to Accounting Standards and new Interpretations that are mandatorily effective for the current
reporting period
The Company has adopted the following new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current year:
• AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to
AASB 107
The adoption of new and revised Standards and Interpretations did not have any material impact on the Company’s
financial statements.
New and revised Australian Accounting Standards in issue but not yet effective
At the date of authorisation of the financial statements, the Company has not applied the following new and revised
Australian Accounting Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:
19
AASB 9 Financial Instruments is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 and for
reporting by the Company in the 30 June 2019 financial year.
This standard principally addresses the classification, measurement and recognition approaches for financial assets and
liabilities.
The directors do not expect this standard to have a material impact on the recognition and measurement of its financial
instruments.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1
January 2018 and for reporting by the Company in the 30 June 2019 financial year.
The standard addresses revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, timing
and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers.
The Company only generates revenue from interest income and related party management fees for which no significant
changes in timing or measurement have been identified under the principles of the AASB 15. Accordingly, the directors
do not anticipate that the application of the new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s financial
statements.
AASB 16 Leases is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 and for reporting by the
Company in the 30 June 2020 financial year.
The standard will result in almost all leases being recognised on the balance sheet, as the distinction between operating
and finance leases has been removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial
liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short term and low-value leases. The accounting for
lessors will not significantly change.
The directors do not anticipate that the application of the new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s
financial statements as the Company does not presently have any long-term lease commitments.
Significant Accounting Policies
The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial
report.
(a)
Income Tax
Current tax payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the
statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in
other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated
using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the statement of financial position date
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except where the deferred
income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a
business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit
or loss.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused
tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against
which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses
can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates
expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax
laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.
20
(b)
Impairment of Financial Assets
Financial assets, other than those financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators
of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is
objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the
financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.
(c)
Revenue Recognition
Interest revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest method, which is the rate that
exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument) to the net
carrying amount of the financial asset.
Management fee revenue is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered and
measured in accordance with the underlying agreement.
(d)
Investment Entity
The company meets the definition of investment entities which are exempt from consolidation under AASB10
Consolidated Financial Statements. Instead of consolidating controlled investments the company measures its
investments at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position and recognises changes in the fair value
through the profit or loss.
(e)
Investments and other Financial Assets
All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on trade date where the purchase or sale of a financial
asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by
the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs, except for those financial
assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value.
(i)
Available-for-sale
Available for sale financial assets are initially recognised at fair value, being the fair value of the consideration
given and including transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial
assets. After initial recognition, financial assets, which are classified as available-for-sale, are measured at fair
value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognised as a separate component of equity
until the financial asset is sold, collected or otherwise disposed of, or until the financial assets is determined to
be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in the profit or
loss.
(ii)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose
of short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or designated as such to
avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is
managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk
management or investment strategy. Realised and unrealised gains or losses arising from changes in fair value
are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
21
(iii)
Held-to-maturity
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-
to-maturity when the company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments that are
intended to be held-to-maturity, such as term deposits, are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently
measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal
repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference
between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount.
(f)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprises of cash at bank and in hand and
short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of change in value. For the purposes of the
Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net
of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(g)
Trade and other creditors
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the end of the
financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of
recognition. Trade and other creditors are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at
amortised cost.
(h)
Earnings / (Loss) per share
(i)
Basic earnings / (loss) per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit after income tax attributable to members of
the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in
ordinary shares issued during the year.
(ii) Diluted earnings / (loss) per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to
take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with
dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been
issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(i)
Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. 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. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash
flows on a net basis.
(j)
Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
In applying the Company's accounting policies, management continually evaluates judgments, estimates and
assumptions based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an
impact on the Company. All judgments, estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based
on the most current set of circumstances available to management. Actual results may differ from the
judgments, estimates and assumptions. Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions made by
management in the preparation of these financial statements are outlined below:
22
Valuation of investments
The fair values of unlisted securities not traded in an active market are determined in accordance with the
directors’ valuations which are based on their experience in the industry.
The directors have used assumptions, such as estimated cash flows, project business growth plans and other
market data available in determining their valuation of the unlisted investments. Should these assumptions
change in subsequent periods the fair value may be impacted and accounted for through the profit or loss. The
directors have used a number of different valuation tools together to determine the fair value of the investee
companies, including projected discounted cash flows and multiples of projected revenues and profits.

Unlisted shares
The fair value of each unlisted investment is determined by directors’ valuation, which is based on their experience in
the industry. The directors have used assumptions, such as estimated cash flows, project plans and other market data
available in determining their valuation of the unlisted investments. Should these assumptions change in subsequent
periods the fair value may be impacted and accounted for through the profit or loss. The directors have used several
different valuation tools to determine the fair value of the investee companies, including discounted cash flows and
multiples of revenues and profits.

Note 18
Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
Financial Risk Management
Overview
The company has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments – interest rate risk, credit risk,
liquidity risk and market price risk. This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above
risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management
framework. The board reviews regularly the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced
by the company. The company’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short-term deposits and financial
assets. The company has other financial instruments such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from its
operations. The company’s policy in relation to the valuation of investments traded on organised markets, and unlisted
investments has been described in Note 1(e).
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument or cash flows associated with the instrument will
fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from fluctuations in interest bearing financial
assets and liabilities that the company uses. The company’s financial assets which are affected by interest rate risk are
the company’s cash and cash equivalents and term deposits held. The company manages its interest risk by using a mix
of fixed and variable rates and trades only with recognised credit worthy third parties.
The following table sets out the carrying amount, by maturity, of the financial instruments that are exposed to interest
rate risk:

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments
The company does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
Therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.
Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the company’s:
- Loss for the year ended 30 June 2018 would decrease/increase by $11,646 (2017: decrease/increase by
$8,925). This is mainly attributable to the company’s exposure to interest rates on its variable rate savings.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to
meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the company's cash and cash equivalents, other assets and
loans to investee companies. The company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date in relation to each class
of recognised financial asset is the carrying amount of these assets.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The
Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to
meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or
risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities:

Market Price Risk
Equity price risk arises from financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss held as a part of the company's
operations. Investments within the portfolio are managed on an individual basis and all buy and sell decisions are
approved by the Board of Directors. The primary goal of the Company’s investment strategy is to maximise investment
returns on sale of investments. Unlisted investments are designated as a financial asset held at fair value through profit
or loss their performances are actively monitored, and they are managed on a fair value basis.
Sensitivity analysis on changes in market equity prices
A change of 20% (based on the Board’s assessment of similar movements in the life sciences industry) in equity prices
at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. The
analysis is performed on the same basis for 2017.

Fair value of financial instruments: Valuation techniques and assumptions applied for the purposes of
measuring fair value
The fair values of unlisted investments are determined in accordance by directors’ valuations, which are based on their
experience in the industry. Directors have used assumptions, such as estimated cash flows, project plans and other
market data available in determining their valuation of unlisted investments. Directors have reviewed discounted cash
flows and multiple of revenue and profit calculations to determine the fair value holding costs of the investments.

Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position:
32
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at
fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
a) Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
b) Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level
1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).
c) Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset
or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of BTC
Health Limited (formerly Biotech Capital Limited)
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of BTC health Limited (the “Company”) which comprises
the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash
flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of
significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Company is in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, including:
(i)
giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2018 and
of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
(ii)
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulation 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 Company 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 confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which
has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the
directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.
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 for 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
Unlisted shares held at fair value
Refer Note 6
The company invests in a portfolio of life
science organisations.
As at 30 June 2018, the company’s
investment portfolio consisted of three
unlisted companies carried at a fair value
of $245,200.
The valuation of these assets requires
significant management judgement.
How the scope of our audit responded to

Our procedures included, but were not limited
to:
Obtaining an understanding of the processes
undertaken by management to determine
the fair value of investments in the unlisted
companies within their portfolio;
Assessing and challenging management’s
valuation methodology and assumptions

We also assessed the appropriateness of the
disclosures in note 6 to the financial statements.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 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.
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 ability of the
Company 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 Company or to cease operations, or has 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.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise
professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists,
we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a
going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including
the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions
and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal
control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and
other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of
most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the
key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits
of such communication.
Report on the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 4 to 7 of the Directors’ Report for
the year ended 30 June 2018.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of BTC health Limited, for the year ended 30 June
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, based on our audit
conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
