Chairman's letter
I am pleased to report that BTC health has made significant progress
over the last 12 months to realise it’s vision of becoming a leading
supplier of innovative medical products in Australia and New Zealand.
BTC health’s cornerstone investment, BTC Speciality Health, has
successfully completed the integration of the hospital infusion
business, purchased from Admedus Australia on 31 May 2019. The
business has established efficient and effective supply chain and
distribution systems, comparable with multinational healthcare
importantly, this foundation enables future
companies.
healthcare investments to be fully integrated in a timely manner,
yielding further benefit to our customers and incremental returns to
shareholders.
Most
The coronavirus pandemic has had a material impact on the anticipated growth for the 2019/20 financial year as
Governments in Australia and New Zealand cancelled elective surgeries in March 2020. Elective surgeries across
both countries have subsequently reopened, albeit on a staggered basis. It is expected that the number of elective
surgeries in public and private hospitals will continue to revert to pre-coronavirus pandemic volumes during the
September 2020 quarter. Sales to hospitals for the 2019/20 financial year were $5.8m, being 12% – 17% below our
pre-coronavirus forecast. The company has exercised strong expense and working capital controls throughout the
year, resulting in a group cash position of almost $2.8m at 30 June 2020. Demand for our products has increased
significantly in the new financial year, particularly in the private sector as surgeons work towards reducing elective
surgery back log. The business is well positioned for growth, with good inventory levels and a fully resourced sales
team across Australia and New Zealand working to onboard new accounts and maintain excellent customer service
of our existing loyal customer base.
The Board would like to thank its employees, customers, shareholders and supply partners for their support and
resilience over the coronavirus pandemic. Our American and European manufacturers have been quick to adapt to
our anticipated growth in forward demand. Sigma Healthcare has continued to maintain superior service levels to
hospitals, ensuring our products are available for surgeons in our shared approach to improve the health outcomes
of all patients.
The Board made the decision to sell its investment in BIO101 Group Pty Ltd, a non-core investment which
provides accounting, taxation and company secretarial services to companies in the life sciences and healthcare
sector. The transaction was completed on 31 July 2020 for $500k cash, which represents a 500% return on BTC
health’s initial investment in 2016, and consistent with the valuation recognised in BTC health’s accounts at 30 June
2020.
We are in the early phase of BTC health’s growth strategy and the future market fundamentals remain strong. The
company is actively assessing specialised healthcare assets to further diversify the business and create scale within
the hospital market. Our objective for the year ahead is to remain keenly focused on this next pillar of growth and
complete a further complimentary transaction, creating incremental return to shareholders within a compliant
Pooled Development Fund.
On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank you for your continued support of BTC health.

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 18 August 2020.
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.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 11
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 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.
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*
J C Pilcher appointed 1 September 2015 (independent director)
B A Hewett appointed 5 August 2019 (independent director)
* R S Treagus is not considered to be independent as he is a related person to a substantial shareholder 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
Recommendation 2.5 as the chair is not independent. 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.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 12
Principle 3.

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 Bruce Hewett. Jon chairs the Committee and has extensive financial
qualifications and experience. The Audit Committee holds a majority of independent directors, although currently
does not have three members. The Audit Committee met two times during 2019/20 and these meetings were
attended by all members.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 13
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 2020
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 2020:
a.
b.
comply with Accounting Standards, the Corporations Regulations 2001 and other mandatory
professional reporting requirements; and
give a true and fair view of the entity's financial position as at 30 June 2020 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 18 August 2020.
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.
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.
investor relations program facilitates effective two-way communication with
The company’s
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 considered it necessary to form 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.
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.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 15
The Board reviewed the company’s risk management framework and satisfied itself that it continues to be sound
on 18 August 2020. (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
Due to the current size and structure of the company, the Board has not considered it necessary to form 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.
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.
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 2020
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 18 August 2020.
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, except for share-based payment transactions
that are within the scope of AASB 2.
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’).
COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organisation declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a
pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 has caused significant volatility in Australian and international markets. There is
significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its
impact on the Australian and international economies and, as such, the Company is unable to determine if it will
have a material impact to its ongoing operations.
Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards
New and amended Australian Accounting Standards that are effective for the current year
AASB 16 - Leases
The Company has adopted all new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that became
effective for the first time and are relevant to the Company.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 22
The Company has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees
eliminates the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Except for short-term leases and leases of
low-value assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are reocgnised in the statement of financial
position. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition is replaced with a depreciation charge of the right-of-
use assets and an interest expense on the recognised lease liabilities. The Company has no active leases at 30 June
2020, therefore as a result, the adoption of the standard had no impact.
New and revised Australian Accounting Standards in issue but not yet effective
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, several new, but not yet effective, Standards and
amendments to existing Standards, and Intepretations have been published by the IASB. None of these Standards
or amendments to existing Standards have been adopted early by the Company.
Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning on or
after the effective date of the pronouncement. New Standards, amendments and Interpretations not adopted in
the current year have not been disclosued as they are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.
Significant Accounting Policies
The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the
financial report.
a) 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.
b) Revenue Recognition
The company recognises revenue from management fees for services rendered to investee companies.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in a contract
with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Management fee revenue is
recognised over time as the customer simultaneously receives the benefits provided by the entity’s
performance.
c) Interest Income
Interest income 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.
d) 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.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 23
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.
e) Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Company’s statement of financial position
when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from
the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial Assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis.
Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets
within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
All recognised financial assets are measured subsequently in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair
value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
Classification of financial assets
The company classifies its financial assets as debt instruments measured subsequently at amortised cost
only if both the following criteria are met:
•
the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order
to collect contractual cash flows; and
the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
•
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) on investments in debt
instruments that are measured at amortised cost and trade receivables. The amount of expected credit
losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the
respective financial instrument.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 24
The Company always recognises lifetime ECL for trade receivables. The expected credit losses on these
financial assets are estimated based on the Company’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors
that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current as well
as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date, including time value of money where
appropriate.
For all other financial instruments, the Company recognises lifetime ECL when there has been a significant
increase in credit risk since initial recognition. However, if the credit risk on the financial instrument has
not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that
financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL.
Financial liabilities and equity
Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the
substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity
instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after
deducting all its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognised at the proceeds received,
net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities
All the Company’s financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective
interest method.
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.
g)
Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at
the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. The fair value excludes the effect of non-market-
based vesting conditions.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company’s estimate of the number of equity
instruments that will eventually vest. At each reporting date, the Company revises its estimate of the
number of equity instruments expected to vest as a result of the effect of non-market-based vesting
conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such
that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to reserves.
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees are measured at the
fair value of the goods or services received, except where that fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in
which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date
the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 25
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:
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.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
Financial Risk Management
Overview
The company has exposure to the following risks from the 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.
BTC HEALTH | ANNUAL REPORT
PG 35
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 2020 would decrease/increase by $66,423 (2019: decrease/increase
by $34,200). 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:

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
There is no difference between the fair values and the carrying amounts of the company’s financial instruments.
The company has no unrecognised financial instruments at balance date.
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 2019.

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.

c)
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
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).
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).

including:
a giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its performance for the year

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

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

Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Unlisted shares held at fair value
The company invests in a portfolio of life science
organisations.
As at 30 June 2020, the company’s investment portfolio
consisted of three unlisted companies carried at a fair value of
$6,500,100.
The valuation of these assets requires significant
management judgement.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Documenting and assessing the processes and control
environment in place for management to determine the fair
value of investments within their portfolio;
Assessing and challenging management’s valuation
methodology and key assumptions applied, in conjunction
with our valuation specialists;
Evaluating the actual financial performance of each of the
investments by:
o Comparing the forecast financial information for the
year to the actual financial and operational results;
o Obtaining an understanding of key customer contracts
in place;
o
Performing analytical procedures to identify unusual
trends or movements in account balances;
o Holding discussions with management around
business performance and future business plans,
including whether sufficient existing funding is in place,
and whether the forecasts are appropriate and
consistent with the strategies of the business; and
Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures in the notes to
the financial report.
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
Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, 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 Company’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 Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
PG 43
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
