Chairman’s
Letter

Dear Shareholder

I  am  pleased  to  present  to  you  the  2013  Annual  Report  for 
Cellmid Limited.

Despite  the  on-going  challenging  conditions  in  the  equity 
market in which we operate the Company has, during the year,                  
achieved  a  number  of  important  milestones  spanning  the 
entire spectrum of our business activities. While our progress 
has not been reflected in share price performance, we believe 
that our focus on building a balanced pharmaceutical product 
development  business  with  both  sustainable  revenues  and 
scale-changing  upside  potential  will  ultimately  be  reflected 
in  the  share  market.  There  are  already  some  pleasing 
indications that market sentiment to the biotechnology sector 
is improving, and with the solid scientific foundations across 
our  three  focus  areas  of  consumer  health,  diagnostics,  and 
therapeutics, your company will be well positioned to benefit 
from further improvement in these sentiments.

It is pleasing to be able to report the continuing growth and 
development of our suite of diagnostic licenses based on our 
core Midkine technology. The CxBladder test, developed by 
our licensee Pacific Edge, was launched commercially in March 
2013,  providing  the  Company  with  a  significant  milestone 
payment  as  well  as  the  prospect  of  an  early  royalty  stream. 
Quest  (Celera)  have  also  reported  good  progress  on  their 
development of a lung cancer diagnostic test using Midkine 
as one of the key markers, successfully transferring the test 
onto  their  commercial  Luminex  platform.  We  also  entered 
into a new license agreement with major Japanese company 
Fujikura,  who  are  already  well  advanced  in  developing  a 
pathology-friendly latex based assay for Midkine. We are also 
confident that new research collaborations entered into during 
the year will lead to more licensing opportunities in the future.

Progress  with  our  suite  of  therapeutic  antibodies  has  been 
equally  pleasing,  with  highly  encouraging  results 
from 
experiments  with  an  animal  model  of  diabetic  nephropathy 
(kidney disease). In addition, several collaborative studies are 
underway on the use of Midkine antibodies in a wide range of 
cancers. The results of all these studies will guide the Company 
in  selecting  the  first  disease  indication  to  take  to  the  clinic. 
We are fortunate indeed that so many researchers around the 
world  are  now  focusing  on  Midkine  (and  its  antibodies)  in  a 
wide range of disease indications; with the strong protection 
of our wide-ranging Midkine patent portfolio, we will be well 
placed  to  share  in  any  commercial  successes  flowing  from 
this  research.  The  fostering  of  this  exciting  research  is  an 
important part of our development strategy, evidenced by our 
sponsoring the “Excellence in Midkine Research” conference/
workshop  series  -  next  to  be  held  in  April  2014  in  Kyoto, 

 4 Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

Japan,  hosted  by  the  scientists  who  discovered  midkine  in 
the late 1980’s.

Our patent portfolio around Midkine continues to grow, with 
two  new  granted  patents  during  the  year  (Ischemia  and 
Vascular Occlusive Disease) to add to our existing 76 patents 
and  20  patent  families.  Cellmid  is  without  doubt  the  global 
leader  in  Midkine  intellectual  property;  an  enviable  position 
indeed  as  its  role  in  a  wide  range  of  disease  indications  is 
becoming well established and recognized. 

Many  shareholders  may  not  be  aware  that  based  on  early 
research  work  in  Japan,  Midkine  has  an  important  role  in 
hair growth. Although we have not yet been able to actively 
pursue  this  application  of  Midkine,  it  did  stimulate  us  some 
time  ago  to  seek  to  position  the  Company  in  this  important 
market  sector.  Thanks  to  the  foresight  and  diligence  of  our 
CEO  Maria  Halasz  and  then  director  (now  consultant)  Ko 
Koike,  we  seized  an  opportunity  in  Japan  in  2011  (?)  to 
acquire limited rights to a suite of scientifically validated hair 
growth  products  based  on  natural  plant  extracts  (FGF-5 
inhibitors).  The  early  response  to  our  Australian  launch  of 
these  products  has  been  very  encouraging,  so  much  so 
that  during  the  year  we  took  the  opportunity  to  acquire  the 
owner of the core technology, Advangen Inc. This important 
acquisition, achieved with a modest cash component outlay, 
provides us with access to an established Japanese market 
and, importantly, the very substantial global market including 
China. The Advangen acquisition gives us a real opportunity to 
establish our Company as a global leader in scientifically and 
clinically validated hair growth technology; part of the scale-
changing upside potential to which I referred earlier.

Further  details  of  all  these  important  developments  can  be 
found  in  the  report  from  our  CEO  and  Managing  Director 
Maria Halasz elsewhere in this Annual Report.

During the year Robin Beaumont re-located overseas and so 
resigned from the Board. We thank Robin for his sterling service 
to the Company. We were delighted to welcome to the Board 
Graeme Kaufman and Martin Rogers, both exceptionally well 
qualified and experienced in the biotechnology sector. These 
additions  to  the  Board,  together  with  a  dedicated  executive 
and staff, ably led by CEO Maria Halasz, equip the Company 
well  to  deliver  on  its  exciting  business  plan.  I  thank  all 
shareholders for their continued support and encouragement.

CEO’s
Report

Dear Shareholder,

I  am  delighted  to  report  to  you  on  this  2013  financial  year, 
which was marked by the achievement of a number of impor-
tant milestones for Cellmid in its therapeutic, diagnostic and 
consumer health businesses. The financial year has seen our 
Company  grow  substantially  in  its  operations  and  revenues. 
Significantly up from the previous financial year the Company’s 
operational revenue reached $761,288 in 2013 ($171,273 in 
2012).  This  growth  was  largely  the  result  of  increased  sales 
from our consumer health division.

With progress on all fronts this financial year we often received 
questions  about  the  focus  of  the  Company.  As  a  pharma-
ceutical product development company we are indeed fortu-
nate with programmes in all stages of the product cycle. We 
have OTC (over-the-counter) and diagnostic products on the 
market and novel drugs and early cancer diagnostics in devel-
opment. 

We are building a company with solid revenues while maintain-
ing  a  strong  potential  for  significant  value  inflection  through 
cutting edge, proprietary and highly innovative therapies and 
diagnostic.  We  have  adopted  a  low  risk  strategy  to  achieve 
these goals and have been consistent in managing costs and 
investing our shareholders’ funds wisely. We believe that this 
strategy has started to pay off and 2013 has seen many major 
developments. 

Early  response  to  the  Australian  launch  of  the  FGF-5  inhibi-
tor hair growth products was strong, and we took advantage 
of the opportunity in early 2013 to acquire the owner of the 
technology,  Advangen  Inc.,  Japan.  This  exciting  business 
represented immediate access to early revenues in Japan but 
most importantly shareholders should see gradual increase in 
sales following the broadening of the distribution in Australia 
and Japan and opening new markets in China, Europe, India 
and the USA in the coming years.

The  Company’s  diagnostic  division  also  started  to  deliver 
revenue  during  2013  from  milestone  and  upfront  fees.  Our 
third diagnostic license is also on its way with Fujikura signing 
an  option  agreement  for  the  exclusive  use  of  our  reagents 
in  Japan.  Licensees  Celera-Quest  and  Pacific  Edge  have 
both made significant progress in their respective diagnostic 
programmes.  Importantly,  the  first  commercial  product  with 
midkine as a biomarker, CxBladder, was launched by Pacific 
Edge in March 2013. 

In 2013 Cellmid embarked on a programme of evaluating our 

portfolio of therapeutic antibodies in multiple disease indica-
tions.  Our  clear  objective  has  been  to  produce  compelling 
preclinical  data  that  would  determine  a  clinical  development 
path  for  this  valuable  asset  portfolio.  Strong  positive  results 
in an animal model of diabetic nephropathy in January 2013 
broadened  the  commercial  opportunities  for  the  Company’s 
anti-midkine  antibodies,  while  several  cancer  studies  have 
been ongoing in various locations during the year.

Our  Board  has  gone  through  a  transition  during  the  finan-
cial  year  with  the  resignation  of  Robin  Beaumont,  and  the 
appointments of Graeme Kaufman and Martin Rogers. Robin 
has  guided  us  with  his  insights  and  we  are  thankful  for  his 
contribution to the Company’s development during his tenure. 
We  are  excited  to  have  Graeme  and  Martin  on  board  who 
have already shown that their extensive industry experience is 
invaluable for Cellmid. 

Since  the  beginning  of  the  2013  financial  year  Cellmid  has 
raised  a  total  of  $2.6M  in  two  separate  issues  of  equities 
or  rights.  In  October  2012  we  completed  an  options  rights 
issue and raised $545,000. In March 2013 a further $2M was 
raised through a private placement of shares to sophisticated 
investors. 

The  Company  delivered  a  solid  financial  performance  with 
consolidated net loss down 22% to $1,541,307 ($1,972,483 
in  2012),  after  providing  for  income  tax,  and  eliminating 
non-controlling  equity  interests.  Of  the  total  of  $761,288 
operating revenue over $540K was attributable to wholesale 
product revenue. 

Therapeutics division: Anti-midkine Antibody Programme

Cellmid’s  anti-midkine  antibody  (MK  antibody)  program  has 
delivered compelling results during the 2013 financial year in 
diabetic nephropathy. Several preclinical studies in xenograft 
models  of  cancer  have  also  been  completed  using  the 
Company’s  proprietary  antibodies  during  the  financial  year 
with results due in 4Q2013. 

The  results  of  these  studies  will  be  important  for  making  a 
decision on “first in men” studies of this novel drug class. The 
results have also been the culmination of 18 months of preclin-
ical studies, in which Cellmid’s proprietary MK antibodies have 
been tested in several disease settings. These studies deliv-
ered  valuable  efficacy  and  mechanism  of  action  information 
in addition to showing early indication of safety. Once results 
of  the  cancer  studies  are  evaluated  Cellmid  will  be  ready  to 
undertake IND-enabling studies.

Outstanding preclinical results – diabetic nephropathy

In  March  2013  Cellmid  reported  on  compelling  results  in  a 
diabetic nephropathy study in a mouse model of the disease 
using  the  Company’s  MK  antibodies.  Kidney  damage  was 
reduced  significantly,  as  assessed  by  functional  and  histo-
logical  analysis,  with  kidney  structure  largely  preserved  in 
the treated animals. The study provided important new infor-
mation  given  that  it  was  the  first  time  the  proprietary  MK 
antibodies have been used in a therapeutic setting in a kidney 
disease model. 

Renal histological assessment showed that glomerular sclero-
sis was reduced from 48% in untreated animals to below 20% 
in the MK antibody treated groups (p<0.01). Interstitial volume 
was also significantly reduced, from 35% in untreated animals 
to 12% in MK antibody treated groups (p<0.01). MK antibody 
treatment  has  also  maintained  tubular  cell  height;  untreated 
animals had mean cell heights below 2μm, compared to 4μm 
for treated animals (p<0.05).

As  a  further  indication  of  the  efficacy  of  the  Company’s  MK 
antibodies kidney function was preserved, with treated animals 
showing  reduced  protein  leakage  into  the  urine  compared 
to  untreated  controls.  Protein  casts  in  the  kidney,  indicating 
damage,  were  also  significantly  reduced  in  antibody  treated 
animals  (Figure  1).  Importantly,  the  MK  antibody  treated 
animals  showed  healthy  weight  gain  and  reduced  mortality 
compared to untreated controls; only 6.3% of treated animals 
died  before  the  end  of  the  study,  compared  to  25%  of  the 
untreated animals. 

Photographs  show  representative  histological  sections  from 
treated  and  untreated  mice.  Protein  casts  are  bright  pink; 
yellow arrows indicate large protein cast deposits.

Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of chronic kidney 
disease  globally.  It  is  also  one  of  the  most  significant  long-
term  complications  in  terms  of  morbidity  and  mortality  for 
patients  with  diabetes.  In  the  USA  alone,  diabetes  affects 
26  million  people,  and  the  US  Centre  for  Disease  Control 
(CDC)  estimates  that  as  many  as  one  in  three  adults  could 
have  diabetes  by  2050  if  current  trends  continue.  Currently, 
diabetic  nephropathy  is  managed  by  keeping  glucose  levels 
under  control,  however  many  of  the  patients  develop  end 
stage renal disease (ESRD). It is estimated that 30-40% of all 
ESRD is caused by diabetic nephropathy.

The  results  of  the  diabetic  nephropathy  study  presented  a 
promising  start  to  the  Company’s  review  of  the  therapeutic 
potential of its MK antibody portfolio and will form part of the 
decision to select the first disease indication Cellmid can then 
take into the clinic. 

Preclinical  studies  with  MK  antibodies  completed  in 
cancer – results due in 3Q2013

Several  studies  have  been  underway  during  the  year  using 
the  Company’s  MK  antibodies.  These  studies  are  expected 
to  deliver  therapeutic  information  looking  at  tumour  growth, 
metastasis and angiogenesis as markers of efficacy. 

Since  its  discovery  MK’s  role  in  cancer  has  been  validated 
extensively.  Approximately  200  peer-reviewed  publications 
have been released on the topic. These studies, by multiple 
research  groups  around  the  world,  show  that  MK  is  a  key 
driver of tumorigenesis in at least 25 different types of cancers, 
including those of the breast, lung, colorectal, gastrointestinal, 
liver, pancreatic and brain. Furthermore, these studies describe 
multiple mechanisms of action by which MK promotes cancer

 6 Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

The biology of how midkine promotes cancer has been well 
described by dozens of research groups globally. When devel-
oping the current preclinical studies we have postulated that 
MK  antibodies  would  have  anti-cancer  activities  via  multiple 
mechanisms  of  action.  Given  that  these  expectations  are 
confirmed the MK antibody programme in cancer would be in 
the lead as Cellmid’s “first in men” study. 

Diagnostics division: midkine as an early cancer biomarker

It has been a productive year for our diagnostic business with 
significant  achievements  by  our  licensing  partners,  a  major 
new  option  to  license  and  several  new  collaborations.  We 
received  around  $200,000  in  license  fees  in  this  business 
during the 2013 year, and a subsequent $1 million in cash and 
Pacific Edge shares in July 2013. 

As  a  major  step  in  commercialising  our  diagnostic  assets 
the  Company  signed  an  Option  to  License  Agreement  with 
Fujikura in February 2013, a Japanese diagnostics company. 
Fujikura  is  one  of  the  largest  suppliers  of  latex  particles  for 
the medical diagnostics industry in Japan. While traditionally 
servicing  other  industries  with  polymers  and  resins,  Fujikura 
has been actively expanding into medical diagnostics. 

Under the terms of the Option to License Agreement Cellmid 
was  to  supply  Fujikura  with  its  proprietary  anti-midkine 
diagnostic antibodies for validation on Fujikura’s latex platform. 
Cellmid received an initial fee in February 2013. During the first 
stage of the agreement Fujikura was able to reach accuracy 
of 500 picogram/ml midkine in serum on its proprietary latex 
diagnostic  platform.  This  event  triggered  a  further  $400K 
payment  in  July  2013  when  Fujikura  elected  to  exercise  its 
license option. 

A latex based test with a 500 picogram/ml accuracy means 
that  the  test  will  be  able  to  identify  individuals  with  elevated 
midkine  levels,  which  may  lead  to  the  development  of  a 
number of cancer diagnostic products. 

Fujikura has regulatory and product development programmes 
in  place  to  accelerate  this  path  to  market.  Once  Fujikura 
launches  its  cancer  diagnostic  products  Cellmid  will  also 
receive royalties on any products sold. A latex based assay is 
well accepted in pathology labs and it can easily be automated, 
reducing processing costs.

This is a significant agreement for Cellmid not only because it 
allows midkine to become a widely used test, but it is also the 
first significant reagent supply agreement where the Compa-
ny’s proprietary diagnostic antibodies are sold in commercial 
quantities. 

Cellmid’s  existing  licensees,  Quest  and  Pacific  Edge,  have 
also  achieved  significant  milestones  in  their  product  devel-
opment  and  commercialisation  programmes,  which  resulted 
in the payment of a milestone fee from Pacific Edge and an 
Option fee from Fujikura, both in July 2013, after the closing 
of the financial year.

Pacific Edge Limited - Bladder cancer license 

Cellmid signed a license agreement with Pacific Edge Limited 
in 2010 for the use of midkine as one of the biomarkers in their 
bladder  cancer  test  (Cxbladder).  Pacific  Edge  has  achieved 
solid progress since the license was signed and has recently 
received  CLIA  registration  of  its  Pennsylvania  labs.  With  the 
CLIA registration Pacific Edge started to roll-out a sales and 
marketing programme in July 2013 and they expect revenues 
to grow gradually. 

The  license  between  Cellmid  and  Pacific  Edge  provides  for 
a  milestone  fee  payable  in  shares,  which  is  due  on  the  first 
sale of Cxbladder in the USA. Commencement of sales in July 
triggered  the  issue  of  over  1M  Pacific  Edge  shares  with  the 
value of over $600,000 at the time. Royalties on revenues are 
expected to be paid to Cellmid semi-annually.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common forms of malignan-
cies. In the United States around one million patients present 
annually  with  haematuria;  of  these,  68,000  are  diagnosed 
with  bladder  cancer.  Once  treated  patients  will  have  regular 
cystoscopies,  painful  urethra  endoscopies, 
to  monitor 
reoccurrence.  Pacific  Edge’s  Cxbladder  has  the  potential  to 
replace cystoscopy over time as a preferred method of patient 
monitoring tool.

Cxbladder, with midkine as of the important biomarkers, has 
shown  outstanding  performance  in  clinical  studies  to  date, 
with 100% sensitivity and 85% specificity in late stage bladder 
cancer. This specificity is expected to increase when using it 
in a monitoring setting. The test can also be used to differenti-
ate between high and low grade cancers. Cxbladder was the 
subject of a comparative study of 485 patients and it signifi-
cantly  outperformed  other  commercially  available  bladder 
cancer tests. Importantly, it has identified 20 cases of bladder 
cancer that were not identified by cystoscopy during clinical 
work-up. 

On  the  basis  of  sales  projections  released  by  Pacific  Edge 
Cellmid  is  expected  to  receive  regular  royalties  from  this 
license from late 2014.

Quest (Celera) Lung Cancer License

Consumer Health Division

Cellmid  signed  a  license  agreement  with  Quest  (Celera)  in 
October  2009  enabling  Quest  to  include  midkine  as  one  of 
the biomarkers in a lung cancer diagnostic test. The license 
covers  using  midkine  for  the  early  diagnosis,  prognosis, 
disease  monitoring  and  management  of  lung  cancer.  The 
terms  of  the  agreement  provide  for  a  milestone  payment  at 
the time of regulatory clearance for the lung cancer test, and 
royalties to be paid semi-annually. 

In  March  2013  Cellmid  received  an  annual  update  on  the 
progress made in the development of the lung cancer test. As 
a significant milestone on the road to market, Quest (Celera) 
has  reported  that  they  have  transferred  and  validated  their 
six-marker  based  lung  cancer  test  from  ELISA  format  onto 
the commercial Luminex platform. Luminex is widely used by 
pathology  labs  internationally,  and  should  provide  the  ideal 
platform for product launch. 

Quest has also advised that they are progressing with clinical 
validation  of  the  test.  Samples  obtained  from  the  National 
Cancer Institute sponsored chest X-Ray screening Prostate, 
Lung,  Colorectal  and  Ovarian  Trial  (PLCO)  are  used  to 
demonstrate  clinical  accuracy  of  the  test.  Quest  (Celera)  is 
particularly focused on developing a test for the diagnosis of 
indeterminate pulmonary nodules identified through CT scan 
or chest x-ray. 

Lung  cancer  is  the  leading  cause  of  cancer  death  in  the 
United States. Currently CT scans are performed to diagnose 
lung cancer; however these are expensive, lack the required 
accuracy and have a poor safety profile. Cost effective, safer 
and  more  accurate  methods,  such  as  Quest’s  lung  cancer 
test, are urgently needed to improve survival, limit side effects 
and reduce costs.

The  next  stage  in  the  licensing  agreement  is  a  milestone 
payment, which is due to Cellmid at the time Quest (Celera) 
receives regulatory approval for the test. 

Other Diagnostic Collaborations

Several research collaborations have been initiated during the 
2013  financial  year  including  a  colorectal  cancer  screening 
programme, an early diagnosis study for hepatocellular carci-
noma  and  two  prostate  cancer  diagnostic  projects.  Cellmid 
will  continue  to  report  on  these  as  they  deliver  results.  The 
Company has also completed sample collection in its CK3000 
healthy volunteer study with result expected in 4Q2013. 

 8 Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

During  the  financial  year  our  pharmacy  distribution  was 
expanded  significantly  and  it  was  evident  that  our  evolis® 
hair growth products addressed a large and growing market 
need.  The  Australian  launch  of  this  scientifically  validated 
range of products in mid-2012 resulted in early adoption by 
many pharmacy buyer groups and the opening of around 700 
pharmacy  doors  nationally.  Our  wholesale  revenue  results 
exceeded internal expectations reaching just under $540,000 
(for the first eight months), reflecting retail sales of over $1.2M 
for the same period. This is an exceptional result for a brand 
new product, in a new segment and against the minimal early 
advertising spending. 

Frostbland  was  appointed  as  the  Company’s  exclusive 
Australian distributor to pharmacies in September 2012 and 
has  done  an  excellent  job  at  getting  the  products  on  the 
shelves. The roll-out of the products will be ongoing until we 
reach  a  market  penetration  of  around  1,000-1,200  pharma-
cies in Australia. We have commenced the systematic training 
of sales and pharmacy staff amongst our current stockists. We 
have regular checks on pharmacies to ensure correct stock-
ing on the products and we have commenced test advertising 
in select geographical areas to learn how best we may spend 
our advertising dollars.

In  practice  several  months  may  pass  between  signing  up  a 
pharmacy  chain  to  sell  the  products  and  actual  stocking  of 
shelves. Even more time is needed for the training of pharmacy 
sales staff, and therefore it is not unusual to see no sales from 
chain stores for 6-8 months. With this understanding, we have 
a marketing plan focused on signing up independent pharma-
cies, delivering training and driving customer traffic by relevant 
local  advertising.  An  increase  in  sales  is  expected  to  result 
nationally as both the training and advertising broadens, and 
this may be accelerated once a celebrity brand ambassador 
is appointed. 

With  the  acquisition  of  Advangen  Inc.,  in  May  2013  the 
Company’s consumer health division has become an interna-
tional business. The market for hair loss products is US$1-2 
billion annually in the USA alone, affecting 52 million patients 
(US  Department  of  Health  and  Human  Services,  2009).  The 
global  market  is  estimated  to  be  several  times  this  amount. 
There is an outstanding potential for Cellmid’s clinically proven 
FGF-5 inhibitor product range to gain a share of this market. 

We have also achieved a number of strategic objectives with 
the  acquisition.  The  deal  enables  Cellmid  full  ownership  of 
the FGF-5 inhibitor technology platform, which underpins the 
Company’s  existing  successful  évolis®  hair  product  range 
and  is  the  basis  of  other  Advangen  Inc.  brands  generating 
revenues  in  Japan.  The  Company  has  gained  immediate 
access to the established Japanese hair growth market. New 
market  opportunities  will  also  be  pursued  including  China 
where import permits are already in place for the Lexilis® and 
Jo-Ju® branded products. 

The  profitability  of  évolis®  sold  in  Cellmid’s  existing  markets 
has  improved  as  there  will  no  longer  be  royalties  payable 
to  Advangen  Inc.  In  addition,  savings  are  expected  on  raw 
material costs of the active ingredients. Boosting the product 
pipeline  of  the  merged  group,  Advangen’s  FGF-5  inhibition 
technology  comes  with  a  number  of  new  candidates  that 
include natural extracts and novel compounds with very high 
potency. An important strategic driver has been accessing the 
hair growth product development expertise which comes with 
the scientific and regulatory staff of Advangen Inc. This should 
greatly facilitate Cellmid’s own programme to develop midkine 
as a hair loss treatment. 

This is a company changing deal for Cellmid. Our objective is 
to  establish  ourselves  as  a  global  leader  in  scientifically  and 
clinically validated hair growth technology building a substan-
tial  business,  which  provides  cash  flow  and  adds  significant 
shareholder value.

Patent Portfolio Update

Managing our patent portfolio has been one of the top priori-
ties this year as we have faced several challenging prosecu-
tions. As always we have had a very strong focus on build-
ing  a  cohesive  strategy  that  makes  commercial  sense  while 
retaining our position as the midkine company. Our portfolio 
currently  stands  at  78  patents  and  20  patent  families,  with 
two new granted patents in the 2013 financial year, as Cellmid 
remains the global leader in MK intellectual property. 

In July 2012 the Company was granted a key midkine protein 
patent  by  the  United  States  Patent  and  Trademark  Office 
(USPTO)  entitled  “Nitric  oxide  synthase  activator”  (‘277). 
This  is  a  fundamentally  important  patent  in  the  Company’s 
programme  for  the  treatment  of  various  forms  of  ischemia 
including heart attack. Patent ‘277 protects the use of midkine 
to treat ischemic disorders including heart attack. Specifically, 

this patent covers the stimulation of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis 
by MK injection. Nitric oxide is a key signalling molecule that 
mediates blood flow, vasodilation and angiogenesis (growth of 
new blood vessels). 

While  this  programme  has  not  been  advanced  significantly 
during  the  2013  financial  year  due  to  resourcing  issues,  it 
remains  one  of  the  most  valuable  assets  with  potential  for 
early partnering. 

In  January  2013  the  European  Patent  Office  (EPO)  granted 
Cellmid’s  patent  application  06746805.8  entitled  “Pharma-
ceutical  composition  for  vascular  occlusive  disease”.  The 
application was filed in May 2006 and the patent is expected 
to expire in 2026. The claims granted cover the use of short 
interfering  RNAs  (siRNAs)  to  prevent  midkine  expression  in 
blood vessel walls. Animal studies show that midkine expres-
sion  in  damaged  blood  vessels  contributes  significantly  to 
vessel  narrowing  and  obstruction,  and  inhibiting  midkine 
prevents or reduces this narrowing. 

Vascular  occlusive  disease  is  the  biggest  cause  of  prema-
ture  death  in  Western  nations.  Vascular  occlusive  disease 
occurs  where  blood  vessels  are  narrowed  or  blocked,  and 
it  is  observed  at  many  sites  in  the  body,  including  the  heart 
(coronary heart disease, CHD), the brain (stroke), the kidney 
(renovascular  disease)  and  the  limbs  (peripheral  vascular 
disease such as deep vein thrombosis). 

Targeting MK in vascular disease is a novel potential treatment 
of both the initial vessel narrowing (stenosis) and the re-occur-
rence  of  narrowing  (restenosis)  that  frequently  occurs  after 
surgical interventions such as stenting. Cellmid does not have 
an  siRNA  programme  in  this  indication,  however  this  patent 
could represent product pipeline and partnering opportunities 
in  the  future.  With  this  patent  Cellmid’s  patent  coverage  for 
siRNA and antibodies extends across cardiovascular disease, 
inflammatory  and  autoimmune  diseases,  cancer,  multiple 
sclerosis and surgical adhesion. 

Although  we  can  look  back  to  an  exceptionally  productive 
financial  year,  it  is  not  entirely  satisfying  as  the  Company’s 
share price hasn’t tracked the significant increase in the value 
of  our  assets.  However,  we  believe  that  continuing  on  our 
growth path and taking advantage of the improving sentiment 
towards our sector may ultimately change this. 

I would like to thank our Chairman, Dr David King, the Board 
and  the  committed  Cellmid  team  for  their  contribution  in 
achieving  these  substantial  milestones  this  financial  year.  I 
would  also  like  to  thank  all  our  shareholders  for  their  active 
support.

Directors’ Report

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The Group has grown its Consumer Health Business significantly during the reporting period and, with the acquisition of 
Advangen Inc., opened up a global opportunity for the commercialisation of its FGF-5 inhibitor hair growth products.

The Midkine Business has reached critical product development objectives in relation to the midkine antibody program and 
commencing the studies necessary for the ‘first in man’ phase 1/2a clinical trials of its anti-midkine antibodies in multiple 
solid tumours. Significant progress has also been achieved in the Group’s diagnostic business with the launch of the first 
commercial product with midkine as a biomarker, CxBladder by Pacific Edge Limited, and a new option to license agree-
ment with Fujikura Kasei (Japan).

Consumer Health Business - Acquisition of Advangen Inc. means a global opportunity for the FGF-5 inhibitor hair 
growth products

Advangen International Pty Ltd, a controlled entity, was set up to commercialise over-the-counter hair growth products 
based on the FGF-5 inhibition technology developed by Advangen Inc. (Japan). Advangen International Pty Ltd originally 
negotiated exclusive manufacturing and distribution rights for Australia, USA and Europe and commenced its commercial 
proof of concept program in September 2012 in Australia by the appointment of a pharmacy distributor.

The results of the commercial proof of concept program have indicated strong global potential for the FGF-5 inhibitor hair 
growth products. To fully exploit this opportunity the Group acquired Advangen Inc. (Japan) in May 2013. The transaction 
involved the payment of $1.2 million in cash and the issuing of 55,737,624 Cellmid shares at an agreed price of $0.05 each 
with a total deal value of $4.0 million. At the time of the acquisition Advangen Inc. had unaudited annualised sales of around 
$1 million and cash and equivalents of around $400,000.

The acquisition of Advangen Inc. is expected to make a significant positive impact on the Group’s operations in future 
financial years. It provides global ownership of the FGF-5 inhibition technology and immediate access to the established 
Japanese markets for the products. It is a whole-of-chain acquisition resulting in reduced cost of goods and no royalties.

The acquisition delivered valuable additional assets including Chinese import permits for the Lexilis and Jo-Ju brands, with 
the potential to accelerate geographical expansion of the distribution. It also provides opportunities for product improve-
ments and further clinical validation programs to expand the markets for chemotherapy related hair loss and androgenic 
alopecia.

Midkine business 

Advances in therapeutic product development - midkine antibodies heading to the clinic

Under this program the Group has been developing its anti-midkine antibody drugs for the treatment of cancer and inflam-
matory diseases. The program received a significant boost during the period with positive results in its pre-clinical programs 
in diabetic nephropathy and solid tumours, paving the way for clinical development.

In  January  2013  the  Group  received  results  indicating  that  its  antibody  drug  reduced  mortality  and  preserved  kidney 
function in a study of a mouse model of diabetic nephropathy. Kidney damage was significantly reduced in this Adriamycin 
induced kidney damage model. This bolstered the Group’s preclinical data package, which has already included positive 
efficacy results in animal models of several cancer types such as osteosarcoma, rectal carcinoma and glioblastoma. The 
review of the pharmacological data package resulted in the development of a clinical development plan involving a phase 
1/2a study for the Group’s anti-midkine antibody drug in multiple solid tumour types. The program is expected to be imple-
mented in the coming financial year.

Midkine (MK) Diagnostic Program

Two of the Group’s licensees, Pacific Edge Limited and Celera-Quest, made significant progress towards commercialisa-
tion of their respective products. The Group has also signed an option to license agreement with Fujikura Kasei for the use 
of two proprietary anti-midkine antibodies in Fujikura’s latex diagnostic products. Internal diagnostic programs, including 

12  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
the  colorectal  cancer  project  at  the  John  Hunter  Hospital  are  progressing  with  sample  collection  and  testing.  This  is  a 
prospective program with results expected in late 2014.

Pacific Edge Limited - launched CxBladder in the USA with midkine as one of the biomarkers

The Group signed a license agreement with Pacific Edge Limited in 2010 for the use of the Group’s biomarker, midkine, as 
one of the biomarkers in CxBladder, a bladder cancer diagnostic test. According to the terms of the license Pacific Edge 
paid an upfront fee and was to pay a milestone fee in shares on reaching first sale of the product outside of Australia and 
New Zealand. Pacific Edge has made solid progress towards this milestone during the reporting period and successfully 
launched its CxBladder test in the USA in March 2013. Pacific Edge reported setting up a sales force to urologists in April 
with sales expected to commence shortly.

Celera-Quest license update

The Group signed a license agreement with Celera-Quest in 2009 enabling Quest to use midkine as one of six biomarkers 
in their test for the early diagnosis, prognosis and disease management of lung cancer. The Group received an upfront 
payment  at  the  time  of  signing,  a  milestone  payment  will  become  payable  by  Celera-Quest  at  the  time  of  regulatory 
clearance and royalties on sales. Celera-Quest provided their annual update to the Group in March 2013 confirming that 
they have transferred and validated the six marker assay on the Luminex platform. They have also advised that they are 
progressing with further clinical validation using serum samples from a National Cancer Institute sponsored trial.

Fujikura Kasei option to license

The Group signed an Option to License Agreement with Fujikura Kasei for the exclusive supply of the Group’s proprietary 
antibodies for validation in Fujikura’s latex diagnostic platform. The agreement provides that Fujikura will proceed to license 
subject to reaching the minimum 500 picogram/mL limit of detection. This is to ensure that Fujikura’s latex assay will be 
able to identify individuals with elevated midkine levels. The validation program was progressing well during the reporting 
period. Fujikura paid an option fee on signing and will pay a milestone fee upon completion of the validation and exercise 
of its option to license.

Intellectual Property update

The Group has a large and valuable patent portfolio which consists of 78 patents across 20 patent families. Of these 52 
patents have been granted, 25 filed or under examination and one in PCT stage.

Two significant midkine therapeutic patents have been granted during the reporting period. The patent entitled “Pharma-
ceutical composition for vascular occlusive disease” (06746805.6) was granted by the European Patent office in January 
2013. The Group’s patent application “Nitric oxide Synthase activator” (12/593,277) was granted in the USA in July 2012.

Financial Position

The net assets of the Group, after eliminating non-controlling interests, are significantly up at $5,305,157 ($2,089,484 as at 
30 June 2012). The directors believe that the Group is in a stable financial position to expand and grow its current operations.

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs

The Group acquired Advangen Inc. (Japan) in May 2013. The transaction involved the payment of $1.2 million in cash and 
the issuing of 55,737,624 Cellmid shares at an agreed price of $0.05 each with a total deal value of $4 million. In the finan-
cial statement the transaction is recorded at $2.9 million (“fair value”) as Cellmid shares were traded on market at $0.03 
at the time of the acquisition. The acquisition is expected to have a significant positive impact on the Group’s operations.

Dividends Paid or Recommended

The Company has not paid or declared any dividends during the financial year (2012: nil).

Events after the Reporting Period

There are two items which have occured after the reporting date as follows:

-  Pacific Edge have issued 1,084,622 shares to Cellmid having achieved their requisite milestone. The shares have been 

issued pursuant to the midkine diagnostic licence agreement signed on 17 May 2010; and

-  The escrow shares issued during the year will be released within the next 12 months.

Other than these items, no other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2013 that has significantly affected, 
or may significantly affect the Group’s operations, the results of those operations, or the Group’s state of affairs in future 
financial years.

Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies

Likely developments, future prospects and business strategies of the operations of the Group and the expected results of 
those operations have not been included in this report as the directors believe, on reasonable grounds, that the inclusion 
of such information could result in unreasonable prejudice to the consolidated Group.

Environmental Issues

The Group’s operations are not subject to significant environmental regulations under the laws of the Commonwealth and 
the state.

Remuneration report

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

The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:

A.  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

B.  Details of remuneration

C.  Service agreements

D.  Share-based compensation

E.  Additional information

A.  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The performance of the Group depends on the quality of its directors and executives.

To  prosper,  the  Group  must  attract,  motivate  and  retain  highly  skilled  directors  and  executives.  To  this  end,  the  Group 
embodies the following principles in its remuneration framework:

•  provide competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives; and

•  establish appropriate performance hurdles in relation to variable executive remuneration.

The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of directors and senior managers of 
the Group on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring 
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.

Remuneration structure

In  accordance  with  best  practice  corporate  governance,  the  structure  of  non-executive  director  and  senior  manager 
remuneration is separate and distinct.

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  17

 
 
Directors’ Report 
Continued

Non-executive director remuneration

Objective

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain direc-
tors of the highest calibre, while incurring costs that are acceptable to shareholders.

Structure

Each non-executive director receives a fixed fee for being a director of the Group.

The constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the maximum aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors 
shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting of shareholders. At the general meeting of shareholders in 
2005, the maximum amount was set at $300,000 per annum. In 2013, the Group paid non-executive directors a total of 
$145,802 (2012: $143,349).

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the fixed fees paid to directors are 
reviewed annually. The Board considers fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking 
the annual review process.

Executive remuneration

Objective

The Group aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and respon-
sibilities within the Group and so as to:

• 

reward executives for Group and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks;

•  align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; and

•  ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.

Structure

A policy of the Board is the establishment of employment or consulting contracts with the CEO and other senior executives.

Remuneration  consists  of  fixed  remuneration  under  an  employment  or  consultancy  agreement  and  may  include  long 
term equity-based incentives that are subject to satisfaction of performance conditions. The equity-based incentives are 
intended to retain key executives and reward performance against agreed performance objectives.

Fixed remuneration

The level of fixed remuneration is set so as to provide a base level of remuneration that is both appropriate to the position 
and competitive in the market.

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board and the process consists of a review of Group-wide and individual 
performance, relevant comparative remuneration in the market, and internal and (where appropriate) external advice on 
policies and practices.

Senior  managers  are  given  the  opportunity  to  receive  their  fixed  (primary)  remuneration  in  a  variety  of  forms  including 
cash and expense payment plans, such that the manner of payment chosen is optimal for the recipient without creating 
additional cost for the Group.

Director and Officer Insurance

During the financial year, the Group paid a premium to insure the directors and officers of the Group.

The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought 
against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Group, and any other payments arising from liabilities incurred by the 
officers in connection with such proceedings. This does not include such liabilities (other than legal costs) that arise from 
conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their position or of informa-
tion to gain advantage for them or someone else or to cause detriment to the Company. It is not possible to apportion the 
premium between amounts relating to the insurance against legal costs and those relating to other liabilities.

Indemnifying Officers or Auditor

During or since the end of the financial year, the Group has given an indemnity or entered into an agreement to indemnify, 
or paid or agreed to pay insurance premiums in favour of its directors as follows:

•  a right to access certain Board papers of the Group during the period of their tenure and for a period of seven years 

after that tenure ends

•  subject to the Corporation Act 2001, an indemnity in respect of liability to persons other the Company and its related 
bodies  corporate  that  they  may  incur  while  acting  in  their  capacity  as  an  officer  of  the  Company  or  a  related  body 
corporate, except for specified liabilities where that liability involves a lack of good faith or is for legal costs for defending 
certain legal proceedings; and

• 

the requirement that the Group maintain appropriate directors’ and officers’ insurance for the officer.

No liability has arisen under these indemnities as at the date of the report.

There is no indemnity cover in favour of the auditor of the Group during the financial year.

Corporate 
Governance Statement

Unless disclosed below, all the recommendations of the ASX Corporate Governance Council (including 2010 amendments) 
have been applied for the entire financial year ended 30 June 2013 (ASX Principles).

Board Composition

The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of each director who is in office at the date of the annual report 
and their term of office are detailed in the directors’ report. 

The names of independent directors that have served on the board of directors of the Company (Board) during the period are:

o  David King

o  Robin Beaumont (Resigned on 27 August 2012)

o  Graeme Kaufman (Appointed on 27 August 2012)

o  Martin Rogers (Appointed on 19 September 2012)

Independent directors are those who have the ability to exercise their duties unfettered by any business or other relationship 
and are willing to express their opinions free of concern about their position or the position of any third party. The Board 
does not believe it is possible to draft a list of criteria which is appropriate to characterise, in all circumstances, whether a 
non-executive director is independent. However, in determining the independent status of a director the Board will consider 
whether the director:

o 

is  a  substantial  shareholder  of  the  Company  or  an  officer  of,  or  otherwise  associated  directly  with,  a  substantial 
shareholder of the Company;

o 

is employed, or has previously been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or another group member;

o  has within the last three years been a principal of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the Company 

or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided;

o 

is a material supplier or customer of the company or another group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated 
directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer;

o  has a material contractual relationship with the Company or another group member other than as a director.

In some cases the Board needs to make an assessment of the materiality of a relationship in order to determine if a direc-
tor is independent. A “material relationship” includes a direct or indirect interest or relationship that could reasonably be 
considered to influence in a material way the director’s decisions in relation to the Company. When considering whether a 
relationship is “material”, the Board will consider the materiality to each of the Company, the director and the person or or-
ganisation with which the director is related (as customer, supplier, or adviser). The Board has not set materiality thresholds, 
considering it more effective to assess relationships on the individual circumstances applicable on a case-by-case basis 
and where appropriate, with the assistance of external advice.

Independent directors have the right to seek independent professional advice in the furtherance of their duties as directors 
at the Company’s expense. Written approval must be obtained from the Chairman prior to incurring any expense on behalf 
of the Company.

David King, Graeme Kaufman and Martin Rogers are members of the nomination committee. These members have attend-
ed meetings of the nomination committee on an ad hoc basis as needed during the year. When appointing new directors, 
the Board and the nomination committee look to ensure that an appropriate balance of skills, experience, expertise and 
diversity is maintained. The Board has not approved a formal nomination committee charter and as such, no such charter 
or summary of such charter is disclosed on the company’s website.

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  25

 
Corporate Governance 
Continued

Ethical Standards

The Board acknowledges and emphasises the importance of all directors and employees maintaining the highest stand-
ards of corporate governance practice and ethical conduct.

A code of conduct has been established requiring directors and employees to:

•  act honestly and in good faith;

•  exercise due care and diligence in fulfilling the functions of office;

•  avoid conflicts and make full disclosure of any possible conflict of interest;

•  comply with the law;

•  encourage the reporting and investigating of unlawful and unethical behaviour; and

•  comply with the share trading policy outlined in the code of conduct.

Directors are obliged to be independent in judgment and ensure all reasonable steps are taken to ensure due care is taken 
by the Board in making sound decisions.

Diversity Policy

Diversity  includes,  but  is  not  limited  to,  gender,  age,  ethnicity  and  cultural  background.  The  Company  is  committed  to 
diversity and recognises the benefits arising from employee and Board diversity and the importance of benefiting from all 
available talent.

The Board believes that the Company benefits from this diversity.

However, due to the size of the Company and small number of persons employed by the company and its controlled enti-
ties, the Board has not established a formal diversity policy in accordance with Recommendation 3.2 of the ASX Principles. 
As such and for the same reasons, the Company is not able to disclose in this annual report the measurable objectives for 
achieving gender diversity in accordance with the diversity policy and progress towards achieving those objectives.

The Company is able to disclose the following gender diversity statistics for the company and its controlled entities as at 
the date of this annual report:

•  women employees (67%);

•  women in senior executive positions (57%); and

•  women on the Board (25%).

Trading Policy

The Company has a policy on the sale and purchase of its securities by its directors and employees. In addition, this policy 
applies to advisers, contractors and consultants who may obtain confidential or price sensitive information in relation to 
the Company.

The purpose of the policy is to avoid conduct known as ‘insider trading’. In some respects, the Company’s policy extends 
beyond the strict requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act).

Audit Committee

The names and qualifications of those appointed to the audit committee and their attendance at meetings of the committee 
are included in the directors’ report.

26  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
CEO/CFO Declaration

As required by section 295A of the Corporations Act, the CEO and CFO have declared that in their opinion:

a.  the  financial  records  of  the  company  and  controlled  entities  for  the  financial  year  have  been  properly  maintained  in 

accordance with section 286 of the Corporations Act;

b.  the financial statements and notes for the financial year comply with accounting standards;

c.  the financial statements and notes for the financial year give a true and fair view of the financial position and performance 

of the company and its controlled entities in accordance section 297 of the Corporations Act;

d.  any other matters prescribed by the Corporations Regulations in relation to the financial statements and notes for the 

financial year have been satisfied.

In addition, in accordance with Recommendation 7.3 of the ASX Principles, the CEO and CFO stated to the Board that 
the declaration provided under section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management 
and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

Performance Evaluation

An annual performance evaluation of the Board has not been made during the year.

A performance evaluation for the CEO has taken place during the financial year in accordance with the evaluation process 
disclosed by the Company. This evaluation has been conducted by the Chairman on a quarterly basis during the year with 
regard to performance measures set at the commencement of the year.

A performance evaluation for other senior management has been conducted by the CEO during the financial year in ac-
cordance with the evaluation process disclosed by the Company.

Board Roles and Responsibilities

The Board is first and foremost accountable to its shareholders through delivery of timely and balanced disclosures.

The Board sought external guidance to assist the drafting of its “Board Charter” which has been made publicly available on 
the Company’s website. This document details the adopted practices and processes in relation to matters reserved for the 
Board’s consideration and decision-making. The Board is ultimately responsible for ensuring its actions are in accordance 
with key corporate governance principles.

Shareholder Rights

Shareholders are entitled to vote on significant matters impacting on the business, which include the election and remu-
neration of directors and changes to the constitution. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to attend and participate in 
the Annual General Meetings of the Company, to lodge questions to be answered by the Board and/or the CEO, and are 
able to appoint proxies.

Risk Management

The Board considers identification and management of key risks associated with the business as vital to maximise share-
holder wealth. A yearly assessment of the risk profile of the business is undertaken and reviewed by the Board, covering 
all aspects of the business from the operational level through to strategic level risks. The CEO has been delegated the 
task of implementing internal controls to identify and manage risks for which the Board provides oversight and is required 
to report to the Board on whether such risks are being managed effectively. The effectiveness of the implemented internal 
controls is monitored and reviewed regularly. During the year, the CEO has reported to the Board as to the effectiveness of 
the Company’s management of its material business risks.

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  27

 
Remuneration Policies

The Company’s remuneration committee comprises of the following non-executive directors:

o  David King (Chair, independent)

o  Graeme Kaufman (independent)

o  Martin Rogers (independent)

The remuneration committee reviews the senior executive packages annually by reference to company performance, ex-
ecutive performance, comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies and independent advice.

Executives may also be entitled to participate in the Company’s employee incentive plan.

The amounts of remuneration for all key management personnel for the Company, including all monetary and non-mon-
etary components, are detailed in the directors’ report under the heading key management personnel compensation. All 
remuneration paid to executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Shares given to executives are valued 
as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the executive. Options are valued using 
the Black-Scholes methodology.

The Board expects that the remuneration structure implemented will result in the Company being able to attract and retain 
the best executives to run the consolidated group. It will also provide executives with the necessary incentives to work to 
grow long-term shareholder value.

The payment of bonuses, options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the remuneration committee annually as 
part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All bonuses, options 
and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The Board can exercise its discretion in relation to 
approving  incentives,  bonuses  and  options  and  can  recommend  changes  to  the  committee’s  recommendations.  Any 
changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria.

Remuneration Committee

The names of the members of the remuneration committee and their attendance at meetings of the committee are detailed 
in the directors’ report.

The Board has not approved a formal remuneration committee charter and as such, no such charter or summary of such 
charter is disclosed on the Company’s website.

There are no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation for non-executive directors.

Notes to the Financial Statements 
Continued

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Statement of compliance

The company is a public company, listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. It is incorporated in Australia and is domiciled 
in Australia.

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Austral-
ian  Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting  Interpretations,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian 
Accounting  Standards  Board  (AASB)  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  as  appropriate  for-profit  oriented  entities.  These 
financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting 
Standards Board (IASB)

The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 28 August 2013.

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, except for certain 
non-current assets and financial instruments that are measured at re-valued amounts or fair values, as explained in the 
accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for 
assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also 
requires  management  to  exercise  its  judgement  in  the  process  of  applying  the  group’s  accounting  policies.  The  areas 
involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the 
financial statements, are disclosed in Note 21.

New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Aus-
tralian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early 
adopted.

Any  significant  impact  on  the  accounting  policies  of  the  Group  from  the  adoption  of  these  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations  are  disclosed  below.  The  adoption  of  these  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  did  not  have  any 
significant impact on the financial performance or position of the Group.

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the Group:

AASB 2011-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income

The  Group  has  applied  AASB  2011-9  amendments  from  1  July  2012.  The  amendments  requires  grouping  together  of 
items within other comprehensive income on the basis of whether they will eventually be ‘recycled’ to the profit or loss 
(reclassification adjustments). The change provides clarity about the nature of items presented as other comprehensive 
income and the related tax presentation. The amendments also introduced the term ‘Statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income’ clarifying that there are two discrete sections, the profit or loss section (or separate statement of 
profit or loss) and other comprehensive income section.

36  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
a.  Going Concern

The Directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal 
business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Based on 
anticipated levels of operational cash flow, the Group has sufficient cash to fund current operations for more than one year.

b.  Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Cellmid Limited 
at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Cellmid Limited has the ability and right to 
govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities.

Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of dis-
posal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the company and to the 
non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into 
line with those used by other members of the group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. 

c.  Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision 
maker. The chief operating decision makers, who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of 
the operating segments, is the Board of Directors.

d.  Revenue and Other Income Recognition

Revenue  is  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  or  receivable  after  taking  into  account  any  trade 
discounts and volume rebates allowed. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this cor-
responds to the transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in 
those goods.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method.

Royalties determined on a time basis are recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the agreement. Government 
grants are recognised in profit and loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses 
the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate, but not before the receipt of the grant is relatively certain.

e.  Income Tax

The income tax expense (revenue) for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the 
national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to tem-
porary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, 
and to unused tax losses.

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

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

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  37

Notes to the Financial Statements 
Continued

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

f.  Cash and Cash Equivalents

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

g.  Receivables

Receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less provision for doubtful 
debts.

Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A 
provision for doubtful receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect 
all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables.

h.  Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct 
materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of 
normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs. Costs of purchased inventory are 
determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course 
of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.

i.  Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any 
accumulated impairment.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the Group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an 
appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when 
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be 
measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehen-
sive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the Group 
commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of 
either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset 
Furniture and fittings 
Office equipment   

Depreciation Rate
20%
6.7-33.33%

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

38  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses 
are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts 
included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

j. 

Investments and Other Financial Assets

The Group classified its investments in the following categories: loans and receivables and available for sale financial assets.

The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the investment and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

(i)  Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in 
an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Loans and receivables are included in current assets, where they are expected to mature within 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period.

Loan and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest 
income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of 
interest would be immaterial.

(ii)   Available-for-sale financial assets

Listed  shares  and  listed  redeemable  notes  held  by  the  group  that  are  traded  in  an  active  market  are  classified  as 
available-for-sale financial assets and are stated at fair value.

Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated 
in the investments revaluation reserve.

Where  the  investment  is  disposed  of  or  is  determined  to  be  impaired,  the  cumulative  gain  or  loss  previously 
accumulated  in  the  investment  revaluation  reserve  is  reclassified  to  profit  and  loss.  The  fair  value  of  available-for-
sale assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate 
at the end of the reporting period. The foreign exchange gains and losses that are recognised in profit and loss are 
determined based on the amortised cost of the monetary asset. Other foreign gains and losses are recognised in other 
comprehensive income.

k.  Intangibles Other than Goodwill 

Patents and trademarks

Patents and trademarks are recognised at cost of acquisition. Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are carried at 
cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. The Group has determined the useful life of the intan-
gible assets at 20 years. There is no amortisation charge to the intangible assets in the 2013 financial Year.

Research and development

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which is incurred.

Expenditure on development projects (relating to the design and testing of new or improved products) are capitalised as 
intangible assets when it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility 
and its costs can be measured reliably. The expenditure capitalised comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs 
of materials, services, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Development expenditures that do not 
meet these criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are 
not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period.

Notes to the Financial Statements 
Continued

I. 

Impairment of Assets

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

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable 
amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

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

m.  Trade and Other Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are 
unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

n.  Provisions

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

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting 
period.

o.  Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end 
of the reporting period. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within the income year have been measured at 
the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. In determining the liability, consideration is given to employee 
wages increases and the probability that the employee may satisfy vesting requirements.

Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liability for wages and salaries, including non monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be 
settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the 
reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Long service leave

Liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of 
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the 
projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee 
departures and period of service.

Retirement benefit obligations

Contributions to the defined contribution fund are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contribu-
tions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payment is available. Contribu-
tions are paid into the fund nominated by the employee.

40  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
Share-based payments

The fair value of options granted is recognised as a benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value 
is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the directors and executives become uncondition-
ally entitled to the options.

The fair value at grant date is determined using binomial option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, 
the term of option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, 
the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option.

The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions, but excludes the impact of any non 
market vesting conditions. Non market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that 
are expected to become exercisable. The benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent 
estimate.

Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to 
share capital and the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital.

p.  Equity-settled compensation

The Group operates an employee share ownership plan. Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair 
value of the instruments issued and amortised over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are 
measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined 
the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are 
received. The corresponding amount is recorded to the option reserve. The fair value of options is determined using the 
binominal pricing model. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each 
reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted 
is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to 
share capital and the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital.

q.  Functional and Presentation Currency

The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environ-
ment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the 
parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation 
at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in 
profit or loss.

Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting 
date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange 
rates, which approximate the rate at the date of the transaction, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences 
are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed.

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  41

 
Notes to the Financial Statements 
Continued

r.   Goods and Services Tax (GST)

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

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

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

s.  Business Combinations

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instru-
ments or other assets are acquired.

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments 
issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling inter-
est in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair 
value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred 
to profit or loss.

On the acquisition of a business, the Group assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate 
classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the Group’s operating or 
accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date.

Where  the  business  combination  is  achieved  in  stages,  the  Group  remeasures  its  previously  held  equity  interest  in  the 
acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is 
recognised in profit or loss.

Contingent consideration to  be  transferred by  the  acquirer  is  recognised  at the  acquisition-date  fair value.  Subsequent 
changes in the fair value of contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Con-
tingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non¬controlling inter-
est in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre¬existing investment in 
the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair 
value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a 
gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and 
measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred 
and the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquirer.

Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional 
amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new in-
formation obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends 
on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information 
possible to determine fair value.

t.  Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share

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

42  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

Diluted earnings 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 or-
dinary shares.

u.   Comparative Figures

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

Where the group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, made a retrospective restatement of items in the financial 
statements or reclassified items in its financial statements, an additional statement of financial position as at the beginning 
of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.

v.   Rounding of Amounts

The parent entity has applied the relief available to it under ASIC Class Order 98/100 and accordingly, amounts in the finan-
cial statements and directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest $1.

w.  New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

The AASB has issued new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates 
for future reporting periods and which the group has decided not to early adopt. A discussion of those future requirements 
as they apply to the group and their impact on the group is as follows:

–   AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The standard has a new 
definition of ‘control’. Control exists when the reporting entity is exposed, or has the rights, to variable returns (e.g. 
dividends, remuneration, returns that are not available to other interest holders including losses) from its involvement 
with another entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its ‘power over that other entity. A reporting entity 
has power when it has rights (e.g. voting rights, potential voting rights, rights to appoint key management, decision 
making rights, kick out rights) that give it the current ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the investee’s 
returns (e.g. operating policies, capital decisions, appointment of key management). The Group will not only have to 
consider its holdings and rights but also the holdings and rights of other shareholders in order to determine whether 
it has the necessary power for consolidation purposes. The adoption of this standard from 1 July 2013 may have 
an impact where the Group has a holding of less than 50% in an entity, has de facto control, and is not currently 
consolidating that entity.

–   AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. It contains the entire 
disclosure requirement associated with other entities, being subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. The disclosure 
requirements have been significantly enhanced when compared to the disclosures previously located in AASB 127 
‘Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements’, AASB 128 ‘Investments in Associates’, AASB 131 ‘Interests in 
Joint Ventures’ and Interpretation 112 ‘Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities’. The adoption of this standard from 
1 July 2013 will significantly increase the amount of disclosures required to be given by the Group such as significant 
judgements and assumptions made in determining whether it has a controlling or non¬controlling interest in another 
entity and the type of non-controlling interest and the nature and risks involved.

–   AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising 

from AASB 13

This standard and its consequential amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 
January 2013. The standard provides a single robust measurement framework, with clear measurement objectives, for 
measuring fair value using the ‘exit price’ and it provides guidance on measuring fair value when a market becomes 
less active. The ‘highest and best use’ approach would be used to measure assets whereas liabilities would be based 
on transfer value. As the standard does not introduce any new requirements for the use of fair value, its impact on 
adoption by the Group from 1 July 2013 should be minimal, although there will be increased disclosures where fair 
value is used.

–   AASB 119 Employee Benefits (September 2011) and AASB 2011-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting 

Standards arising from AASB 119 (September 2011)

This revised standard and its consequential amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or 
after 1 January 2013. The amendments make changes to the accounting for defined benefit plans and the definition of 
short-term employee benefits, from ‘due to’ to ‘expected to’ be settled within 12 months. The later will require annual 
leave that is not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months to be discounted allowing for expected salary levels 
in the future period when the leave is expected to be taken. The adoption of the revised standard from 1 July 2013 is 
expected to reduce the reported annual leave liability of the Group.

–   AASB  2011-4  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards  to  Remove  Individual  Key  Management 

Personnel Disclosure Requirement

These amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013, with early adoption 
not  permitted.  They  amend  AASB  124  ‘Related  Party  Disclosures’  by  removing  the  disclosure  requirements  for 
individual key management personnel (XIVIR). The adoption of these amendments from 1 July 2014 will remove the 
duplication of information relating to individual KMP in the notes to the financial statements and the directors report. 
As the aggregate disclosures are still required by AASB 124 and during the transitional period the requirements may 
be included in the Corporations Act or other legislation, it is expected that the amendments will not have a material 
impact on the Group.

–   AASB  2011-7  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards  arising  from  the  Consolidation  and  Joint 

Arrangements Standards

The amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The amendments 
make numerous consequential changes to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, following the 
issuance of AASB 10, AASB 11, AASB 12 and revised AASB 127 and AASB 128. The adoption of these amendments 
from 1 July 2013 will not have a material impact on the Group.

–   AASB 2012-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Annual Improvements 2009-

2011 Cycle

The amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The amendments 
affect five Australian Accounting Standards as follows: Confirmation that repeat application of AASB 1 (IFRS 1) ‘First-
time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards’ is permitted; Clarification of borrowing cost exemption in AASB 
1; Clarification of the comparative information requirements when an entity provides an optional third column or is 
required to present a third statement of financial position in accordance with AASB 101 ‘Presentation of Financial 
Statements;  Clarification  that  servicing  of  equipment  is  covered  by  AASB  116  ‘Property,  Plant  and  Equipment’,  if 
such equipment is used for more than one period; clarification that the tax effect of distributions to holders of equity 
instruments and equity transaction costs in AASB 132 ‘Financial Instruments: Presentation’ should be accounted for 
in accordance with AASB 112 ‘Income Taxes’; and clarification of the financial reporting requirements in AASB 134 
‘Interim Financial Reporting’ and the disclosure requirements of segment assets and liabilities. The adoption of the 
amendments from 1 July 2013 will not have a material impact on the Group.

44  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
–   AASB 2012-9 Amendment to AASB 1048 arising from the Withdrawal of Australian Interpretation 1039

This  amendment  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2013.  The  amendment 
removes reference in AASB 1048 following the withdrawal of Interpretation 1039. The adoption of this amendment will 
not have a material impact on the Group.

–   AASB 2012-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Transition Guidance and Other Amendments

These amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. They amend 
AASB 10 and related standards for the transition guidance relevant to the initial application of those standards. The 
amendments clarify the circumstances in which adjustments to an entity’s previous accounting for its involvement with 
other entities are required and the timing of such adjustments. The adoption of these amendments will not have a 
material impact on the Group.

Capital Risk Management

The consolidated entity’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, 
so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital 
structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends paid to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value adding relative to the current parent entity’s share price at the time of the investment. The consolidated entity is not 
actively pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in 
order to maximise synergies.

NOTE 21: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including 
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under 
the circumstances.

a.   Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates 
in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates 
and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, manage-
ment believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom 
equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a 
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial 
year are discussed below.

i.  Estimated impairment of intellectual property

The group tests annually whether intellectual property has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting 
policy stated in note 1. The recoverable amounts of the intellectual property have been determined based on reviewing 
the status of the research and development program, progress on its patent applications and projected cash flow calcu-
lations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimating timing of cash flows, product develop-
ment and availability of resources to exploit the assets.

NOTE 22: EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

There are two items which have occured after the reporting date as follows:

-  Pacific Edge have issued 1,084,622 shares to Cellmid having achieved their requisite milestone. The shares have been 

issued pursuant to the midkine diagnostic licence agreement signed on 17 May 2010; and

-  The escrow shares issued during the year will be released within the next 12 months;

Other than these items, no other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2013 that has significantly affected, 
or may significantly affect the Group’s operations, the results of those operations, or the Group’s state of affairs in future 
financial years.

NOTE 23: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS 

Related Parties

a.  The group’s main related parties are as follows:

Personnel (KMP) and the remuneration report in the directors’ report.

62  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
b.  Transactions with related parties

NOTE 24: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The Group’s activities expose it to a number of financial risks as described below. The Group’s overall risk management 
program seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. To date, the group has 
not had the need to utilise derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange contracts or interest rate swaps to 
manage any risk exposures identified.

The totals for each category of financial instruments, measured in accordance with AASB 139 as detailed in the account-
ing policies to these financial statements, are as follows:

Financial assets

Cash and cash equivalents

Loans and receivables

Available-for-sale financial assets

Total financial assets

Financial liabilities

Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. The group has no significant concentration of credit risk.

The maximum exposure to credit risk by class of recognised financial assets at the end of the reporting period is 
equivalent to the carrying value and classification of those financial assets (net of any provisions) as presented in the 
table above.

Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are considered to be of high credit quality.

Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by management in accord-
ance with approved board policy. Such policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with a 
Standard & Poor’s rating of at least AA-.

Cellmid 2013 Annual Report  63

 
Notes to the Financial Statements 
Continued

b.  Liquidity risk 

The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:

-  preparing forward-looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;

-  managing credit risk related to financial assets;

-  only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions The Group is not exposed to any material liquidity risk.

The table below analyse the group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual 
maturities for:

(a)  all non-derivative financial liabilities

(b)  net  and  gross  settled  derivative  financial  instruments  for  which  the  contractual  maturities  are  essential  for  an 

understanding of the timing of the cash flows.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal 
their carving balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating 
due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are 
other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

64  Cellmid 2013 Annual Report

 
The Group has no significant concentration of foreign exchange risk. The maximum exposure to foreign exchange risk 
is the fluctuation in the US dollar on its USD denominated bank account and also the Japanese Yen bank accounts.

Price risk

The Group is not exposed to any material price risk.
