Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Chairman's Letter

26 March 2024

Dear Shareholders,

Achieving approval from the United States 
Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) for 
Technegas has been a long-sought after goal 
for Cyclopharm. On 29 September 2023, we 
delivered on that objective. Access to the US 
market, the single largest market for Technegas™ 
globally, is expected to significantly grow sales 
of Technegas™ in coming years and provide 
another solid platform to launch our Beyond PE 
growth initiatives. 

Whilst focusing on USFDA approval, your 
company in parallel, delivered another solid 
financial performance in 2023 driven again by 
strong sales of our core Technegas products and 
a significant contribution from our third-party 
distribution business. The overall result being 
another year of record sales revenues. We 
continued to make significant progress in 
executing our growth objectives, highlighted 
by USFDA approval to sell Technegas™ in the 
US market.

In 2023, Cyclopharm continued to demonstrate 
the strength of our business and the financial 
benefits derived from revenue diversification, 
while enhancing shareholder value by advancing 
our ‘Beyond PE’ growth initiatives. ‘Beyond PE’ 
aims to extend the use of Technegas™ into new 
and exponentially larger applications beyond its 
traditional Pulmonary Embolism (PE) market.

Cyclopharm’s core Technegas™ products 
used in functional lung imaging, primarily 
for the detection of pulmonary embolism, are 
now available in 65 countries, with seven of 
our offices directly servicing 17 out of those 
countries. Cyclopharm will continue to leverage 
this expanding global footprint, regulatory 
expertise and direct marketing capabilities to 
grow global Technegas™ sales and to continue 
the rapid expansion of our successful third-party 
distribution partnerships business.

We continue to invest in clinical trials which 
support our Beyond PE strategy, by researching 
expanded uses of Technegas™ into the treatment 
and management of indications significantly 
larger than PE, such as COPD, Asthma and 
Long-COVID. Notably, the global COPD market is 
approximately 30 times the size of the PE market. 
The Company’s entry into the US market is 
expected to accelerate this Beyond PE strategy. 

Cyclopharm’s third-party distribution business 
delivered significant growth in 2023, leveraging 
our regulatory expertise and operational 
footprint to secure additional distribution 
agreements across the regions in which we 
currently operate, particularly Europe and 
the Asia-Pacific. This business distributes a 
mix of radiopharmaceuticals products and 
capital equipment with associated consumable 
and service revenue. Importantly, third-party 
distribution contracts support the Company’s 
growth strategy by generating additional revenue 
streams to complement our established and 
growing Technegas business, and is emerging as 
an important pillar of our business.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Chairman's Letter

In 2023, the third-party distribution business 
contributed a substantial $11.91 million 
in revenue made up of $4.37 million from 
capital works projects and $7.54 million 
from consumable sales and services, up from 
$9.22 million in revenue for the prior year. 

26 February 2024. Mr Smith brings a wealth of 
industry experience in Financial Control and 
Accounting, both at Cochlear and at a large 
multinational in the United Kingdom. He is CA 
qualified, gained through his time working as 
an external auditor at Deloitte.

The Company’s strong balance sheet and cash 
balance at year-end of $11.73 million supports the 
initial launch of Technegas in the US market.

Cyclopharm has never been better placed to 
extend its market leadership in lung imaging and 
drive ongoing growth in revenue and earnings 
across new markets and new indications.

In line with good corporate governance practice, 
Cyclopharm’s Board continually evaluates 
its skills and composition to ensure they 
appropriately support the Company’s growth 
and governance requirements. On 19 February 
2024, Cyclopharm announced that Mr John 
Wigglesworth was appointed as a Non-Executive 
Director to fill a casual vacancy on the board. 
Mr Wigglesworth is a Chartered Accountant and 
Company Director with 37 years professional 
experience, including 24 years as a Partner at 
KPMG. As Cyclopharm enters its next phase of 
substantial growth, Mr Wigglesworth’s experience 
will be a valuable asset to the company. 

Cyclopharm’s focus on its strategic pillars 
also allowed the Company to grow and build a 
talented team, specifically in the US, to prepare 
for the rapid roll out of Technegas™ following the 
USFDA approval in September 2023. To support 
this step change in the business’ financial and 
operational performance Cyclopharm recently 
announced the appointment of Mr Jason Smith 
as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective 

The breadth and depth of experience and the 
integration of complementary skills across the 
Cyclopharm management team and Board, which 
we have put in place, developed and refined over 
the past several years, ensures that we are well 
positioned to rapidly take advantage of entry into 
the US market and the opportunities that will 
naturally flow from our Beyond PE initiatives.

In 2024, we expect to build on the record revenue 
performance achieved in 2023 through robust 
sales of Technegas™; continuing growth in 
third-party distribution sales and the improved 
utilisation of the Company’s sales and service 
infrastructure globally.

In addition, Cyclopharm is committed to 
delivering positive health outcomes for our 
patients and growing financial rewards to our 
shareholders.

On behalf of the Board, I thank our Managing 
Director, all our staff and wider stakeholders for 
their commitment to the company and I thank 
you, the shareholders, for your continuing support.

David Heaney 
Chairman

Dear Shareholders,

Cyclopharm delivered another solid financial 
and operational performance in 2023 and the 
start of our market expansion of Technegas™ 
following USFDA approval on 29 September 
2023. Access to the US market, the single largest 
market for Technegas™ globally, is expected 
to significantly grow sales of Technegas™ 
in coming years. 

The company continued to invest in further 
R&D and support of clinicians to expand 
the use of Technegas™ in new diagnostic 
applications as part of our ‘Beyond PE’ growth 
strategy. As outputs to this initiative, two 
clinical trial results were published in 2023. 

The first publication by McMaster University1 
located in Canada, used Technegas™ in 
surgical planning for lung cancer patients. 
The second publication by Australia’s Hunter 
Medical Research Institute (HMRI)2 found 
that imaging with Technegas™ is a predictive 
indicator or ‘Treatable Trait’ for response to 
therapy in patients with severe asthma. 

In addition to the R&D work being conducted 
in existing markets, entry to the US market 
is also expected to accelerate ‘Beyond PE’ 
use globally.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's Review

Staffing costs have also increased over the 
period by $2.61 million predominantly driven 
by the increasing costs of global regulatory 
compliance and preparations for the Company’s 
rapid roll out of Technegas™ in the US market 
following USFDA approval. 

The results were assisted by a decrease 
in distribution costs. Distribution costs of 
$1.07 million were recorded in 2023, down from 
$2.39 million in 2022. This decrease resulted 
from the easing in inflationary pressures of 
distribution and logistics costs globally as 
worldwide supply chains continue to moderate.

Cyclopharm ended the financial year with a 
healthy balance sheet and a cash balance of 
approximately $11.73 million, reflecting prudent 
expense and capital management supported 
by ongoing operational cashflows. This cash 
balance allows the Company to launch its rollout 
of Technegas™ in the US, continue its R&D 
activities and support the working capital needs 
of the business.

R&D tax incentives are ongoing but now in the 
form of offsets to future taxable income, rather 
than refunds, as Cyclopharm has exceeded the 
aggregated turnover threshold. Therefore, there 
was no Research and Development Tax incentive 
payment for the 2023 financial year, versus a 
payment of $1.64 million from the Australian 
Taxation Office in 2022.

Financial performance
Cyclopharm continued to generate record 
Group revenue of $32.21 million up 29.0% from 
the previous year. Revenues from direct sales 
in 2023 of $26.34 million, were up 15.1% from 
$22.88 million in the prior year.

Sales of our proprietary Technegas™ Systems 
and PAS consumables, used in functional lung 
imaging primarily for the detection of pulmonary 
embolism, performed well in 2023 with revenue 
from the Systems and consumables exceeding 
FY2023 revenues by 5.6% to $14.43 million. 

Sales revenue from third-party distribution sales 
continued to grow strongly, up $2.70 million to 
$11.91 million, a rise of 29.3%. This revenue, whilst 
at lower margin than sales of our proprietary 
Technegas™ products, is expected to continue 
to complement revenues in existing markets. 
Third-party distribution consists of a mix of 
radiopharmaceuticals, capital equipment and 
associated consumables. Cyclopharm expects to 
continue to expand this revenue stream through 
a wider range of third-party partnerships to a 
broader geographic reach in the coming year 
and beyond.

Cyclopharm recorded a loss after tax of 
$4.70 million in 2023, compared to $6.61 million 
in 2022. This figure was assisted by $3.16 million 
reversal of impairment to the Cyclotron facility 
in recognition of the financial contributions 
derived from Cyclotek NSW Pty Ltd. The results 
included $3.49 million of expenses associated 
with the USFDA approval process in 2023. In 
total, $23.41 million has been expensed on the 
current USFDA approval process over the past 
15 years, which reflects the Board’s confidence 
in the anticipated returns from Technegas™ 
sales in the USA market now that approval 
has been granted. The net loss before tax of 
approximately $4.19 million in 2023, down 
30.5% from $6.03 million in 2022. This result 
includes $1.28 million of recovered litigation 
costs from ongoing strategies to actively protect 
Cyclopharm’s commercial interests in Europe 
and Australia.

Expanding Technegas™ revenues
Technegas™ sales grew by 5.6% to $14.43 million, 
matching pre-pandemic levels. Sales of Patient 
Administration Sets (PAS) represented 70.7% of 
Technegas™ revenue (73% in FY22). Each box of 
PAS is equal to 50 patient doses of Technegas™. 

PAS sales resulted in 161,700 patient procedures 
in 2023 or 3,234 boxes of PAS. Despite 113 fewer 
boxes sold in 2023, the result was pleasing given 
the temporary shortage of global contrast media 
in 2022 which benefited Technegas™ sales for 
that year. 

In 2023, 58 TechnegasPlus™ Systems (Systems) 
were sold compared to 76 in the prior year. The 
previous year’s sales were assisted by a boost in 
COVID related TechnegasPlus™ System.

Sales of Systems and other service revenue 
represented 29.3% of Technegas™ total revenue, 
up from 26.5% in 2022. The increase was primarily 
a result of the pricing increase in Systems 
combined with the execution of the Company’s 
direct market expansion.

Operations and strategy deliverables
During the year to 31 December 2023, we 
continued to successfully execute the Company’s 
growth strategy of leveraging its significant 
intellectual property, technology and technical 
expertise to broaden sales and service into 
new countries and expanding end-use product 
applications and complementary businesses. 

Operating highlights for the 2023 calendar year 
included:

 — Successful USFDA manufacturing facility 

inspection completed

 — USFDA approval to market Technegas™ in the 

US, received on 29 September.

 — First US contract signed with Duke University 

Hospital in December.

 — Advanced preparation for US commercialization 
of Technegas™, including personnel training 
and inventory buildup, to facilitate a rapid 
rollout in 2024.

 — Ongoing support for Technegas™ continues to 

build from frontline US healthcare workers and 
clinicians based on superior clinical outcomes, 
operational efficiencies and an unprecedented 
safety profile.

 — Continuation of pilot clinical trials targeting 
new applications for Technegas™ in chronic 
respiratory disease states and long-COVID-19, 
COPD, asthma and lung cancer with clinical 
trial results published.

 — Strong growth of 29.3% in third-party 

distribution. 

Cyclopharm also continues to prioritise employee 
safety and welfare while executing our growth 
strategies.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's ReviewAccelerated US rollout
Cyclopharm received USFDA approval to 
commence commercial sales of Technegas™ 
in the US market on 29 September 2023. The 
approval provides Cyclopharm access to the 
single largest market for Technegas™ globally, 
and one which the company estimates to be 
initially worth approximately US$180 million 
annually for the diagnosis and management of 
Pulmonary Embolism (PE).

In preparation for the USFDA approval, 
Cyclopharm established a rapid rollout plan 
for Technegas™ into a market estimated 
to represent 2,000 facilities. The company 
invested in building up inventory levels and 
had the necessary parts to launch with 200 
systems ready to deploy. The USFDA approval 
covers the complete Technegas™ product line, 
including its manufacture in and distribution 
from Australia. 

Prior to USFDA approval, there was significant 
pre-existing demand for Technegas™ in the 
US healthcare market with US clinicians and their 
representative bodies having lobbied heavily for 
access to Technegas™. Cyclopharm had logged 
over 420 individual expressions of interest 
pre-approval and the company in prioritising this 
strong demand for Technegas™ in US medical 
facilities in the following order:

1.  US Clinical trial sites involved in Technegas’™ 
New Drug Application (NDA), such as Duke 
University Hospital, Cyclopharm’s first signed 
contract in the US for Technegas™ 

2.  Key Opinion Leaders involved in the NDA 

process

3.  Advocates that have supported Technegas™ 

during the NDA process

4.  Large Government and Large Private Health 

Care Groups

5.  Large University affiliated teaching hospitals

Since USFDA approval in September, Cyclopharm 
has specifically engaged with over 80 individual 
clinical sites and buying groups aligned to over 
280 individual locations. This internal process is 
generally first driven by strong clinical support 
from the nuclear medicine department, followed 
by several interdepartmental reviews conducted 
which includes an analysis of commercial terms. 
Administrative approval and contract execution 
then progresses to installation and training. Our 
first US Technegas™ installation and sales to Yale 
University was recorded in February 2024.

Installations of the first wave of Technegas™ 
Systems for the US will continue through H1 
2024, with plans for completion, shipment and 
installation of 200 Systems by the end of 2024. 
Under the US sales model, based on anticipated 
high volumes, Cyclopharm will provide and 
install Technegas™ Systems to nuclear medicine 
departments to increase adoption and use of 
the single patient consumables which generate 
recurring annuity-style revenue. Already in place 
are agreements for third-party distribution, 
System service, installation, and administrative 
support for Technegas™ in the US.

Maximising the US Opportunity
To rapidly penetrate the US market, Cyclopharm 
will use its experience from the successful 
introduction of Technegas™ in the 64 existing 
country markets globally including its largest 
country market, Canada. In Canada, the 
company has displaced the same competitive 
products currently being used in the US to 
a level where almost all of Canada’s nuclear 
medicine ventilation procedures are imaged 
using Technegas™.

In the US, there are approximately 4 million 
procedures conducted annually to rule out 
the presence of PE. Of those procedures, 85% 
are imaged through Computed Tomography 
Pulmonary Angiography (commonly known 
as CT or CTPA). The remaining 15% of the 
market (or 600,000 procedures) which utilise 
nuclear medicine rather than CT to diagnose 
PE, comprises patients with contraindications 
including those who are pregnant, have renal 
impairment, allergies to CT contrast media, or 
radiation concerns.

Cyclopharm is initially targeting the existing 
600,000 nuclear medicine imaging procedures 
for PE, a market which it estimates to be 
approximately US$90 million per annum. Based 
on Cyclopharm’s experience in the Canadian 
market and globally, the company reiterates 
expectations it can achieve a 50% share of 
this existing market over the next 2 to 3 years, 
rising to more than 80% share over a 3 to 
5-year period.

9

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's ReviewThe second stage involves increasing the 
total US PE diagnostic market that is imaged 
through nuclear medicine from 15% to 30%. 
This target raises the total potential PE market 
for Technegas™ in the US to US$180 million 
annually, Cyclopharm’s confidence the 
US market can be expanded to US$180 million is 
based on the company’s extensive and successful 
global track record, the unique properties of 
Technegas™ including its ability to enhance 3-D 
imaging technology and create superior clinical 
outcomes to CTPA.

Underpinning the opportunity is the key fact that 
US reimbursement codes are based on established 
nuclear medicine procedures. Technegas™ can 
therefore be immediately utilised under existing 
bundled procedural codes.

Beyond PE – substantially expanding 
the use of Technegas™
In 2023, Cyclopharm continued to accelerate 
opportunities to develop our Beyond PE strategy 
with clinical trials designed to expand the 
use of Technegas™ into the treatment and 
management of additional and exponentially 
larger indications, such as COPD, Asthma and 
Long-COVID. 

As outputs of these initiatives, two clinical 
trial results were published in 2023. The first 
publication was by McMaster University in 
the use of Technegas™ as part of the surgical 
planning for lung cancer patients. McMaster 
University, located in Hamilton Canada 
published a paper entitled “Comparison of 
ventilation defects quantified by Technegas 
SPECT and hyperpolarized ¹²⁹Xe MRI”1. The 
publication assessed lung cancer patients 
undergoing lung resection surgery. The results 
of the study underscored the clinical utility 
of Technegas™ in assessing more broadly 
ventilation abnormalities in pulmonary 
obstructive disease.

The second publication by the Hunter Medical 
Research Institute (HMRI), a research institute 
affiliated with the University of Newcastle in 
Australia, found Technegas™ to be a predictive 
indicator or ‘Treatable Trait’ for drug response 

in patients with severe asthma. The HMRI 
publication entitled “Ventilation Heterogeneity 
Is a Treatable Trait in Severe Asthma”2 found 
that Technegas™ provides an “objective 
measure of response to biologic therapy in 
severe asthma and as a relevant treatable 
trait”. In other words, Technegas™, may be 
used to predict how well a patient will respond 
to therapy. This outcome has significant health 
economic potential particularly in the use of 
expensive biological therapies.

The US represents the largest individual market 
in the world for diagnostic lung ventilation 
imaging. This wide indication supports future 
use across a wide range of other respiratory 
disease states to include Chronic Obstructive 
Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Asthma, 
Long-COVID and lung cancer. 

As an indication of the larger Beyond PE 
markets in the US, Cyclopharm estimates 
the global COPD market to be approximately 
30 times the size of the PE market. Clinical 
studies have supported the potential for over 
500 million patients globally suffering with 
COPD and a similar number with Asthma, 
benefiting from the use of Technegas™ in 
diagnosis and ongoing patient monitoring and 
management. These respiratory disease states 
represent significant opportunities to expand 
sales of Technegas™, drive shareholder value 
over the medium term and ultimately improve 
patient outcomes.

Cyclopharm is confident that the extension 
of Technegas™ into these new applications 
in the US will drive substantive opportunities 
globally to exponentially expand the market for 
Technegas™ beyond its traditional PE market. 

Technegas™ remains the recognised functional 
ventilation imaging agent used in diagnosing 
Pulmonary Embolism as referenced in both the 
recently published Canadian Association of 
Nuclear Medicine Guidelines3 and the updated 
2019 European Association of Nuclear Medicine 
Guidelines4. Both guidelines also reinforce 
the superior use of Technegas™ particularly 
in patients with COPD and the potential for 
nuclear medicine imaging.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's ReviewOther businesses

Third-party distribution
The Technegas™ division benefited significantly 
from the robust increase in third-party 
distribution revenues to $11.91 million. Third-party 
revenue was driven by a strong contribution from 
Australia/NZ and a sound performance in Europe. 

Cyclopharm leveraged its regulatory 
expertise and operational footprint through 
the establishment, in 2020, of a third-party 
distribution business that continues to deliver 
exceptional growth. The Company entered into 
third-party distribution agreements for Europe 
in 2020, followed by agreements in the Asia 
Pacific region in 2021. In 2023, the third-party 
distribution revenues expanded by 29.3% to 
$11.91 million, still a significant rise despite 
more than doubling in 2022 at solid, albeit 
lower, margins than Cyclopharm’s proprietary 
Technegas™ products.

These complementary third-party revenue 
streams have supported Cyclopharm’s 
overall revenue performance since 2020, 
particularly through the years when the COVID 
pandemic had its most profound impact on 
our Technegas™ business. The continued and 
substantial growth of the Company’s third-party 
distribution business in 2023 demonstrates that 
it is delivering a material contribution to the 
overall business.

Third-party revenue is a combination of 
capital works projects and ongoing sales from 
consumables and related service support. Of 
the total $11.91 million third-party revenues 
generated in 2023, capital works projects 
equalled $4.37 million with the ongoing revenues 
associated with recurring consumable sales and 
service equating to $7.54 million.

These growing third-party partnerships 
continue to reinforce the Company’s strategy 
of pursuing additional and complementary 
revenue streams. Initially introduced to 
leverage off our Technegas™ sales and service 
infrastructure, this initiative is now providing a 
material contribution to the Company’s earnings 
and revenue and is emerging as a core and 
complementary part of the business. 

Cyclotek NSW Pty Ltd 
During the year, Cyclotek NSW Pty Ltd 
(Cyclotek NSW) made a $0.80 million positive 
contribution to the Group’s results. Cyclotek 
NSW is a collaboration between Cyclopharm, 
Cyclotek (Aust) Pty Ltd and the Australian 
Nuclear Science and Technical Organisation 
(ANSTO’) set up in part to realise the inherent 
value of Cyclopharm’s legacy Cyclotron 
assets both to generate profits and contribute 
to enhanced health outcomes for the 
Australian community. 

Cyclotek NSW was formed as a business 
venture collaboration in late 2019. Under 
the venture, Cyclopharm is required to make 
available access to the cyclotron facility and to 
a contribute $40k per annum, over a period of 
9 years, to fund the ongoing research activities 
of Cyclotek NSW. In exchange for the use of the 
cyclotron facility and research contribution, 
Cyclopharm receives a share of profits from the 
venture and international commercialisation 
rights to intellectual property developed 
from the collaboration. In recognition of the 
increasing annual financial distributions 
received from Cyclotek NSW, Cyclopharm 
booked a $3.16 million partial reversal of 
impairment to the Cyclotron assets in 2023.

Litigation Progress
In August 2023, Cyclopharm advised that it had 
reached a settlement with two of the parties 
involved in legal proceedings initiated by 
Cyclopharm in Australia, which resulted in the 
Company receiving a cash settlement and asset 
purchase equalling a net receipt of $0.70 million. 

This settlement follows the receipt of $0.58 million 
from the favourable judgment handed down in 
Germany against Mr Bjorn Altmann and Almedis 
Altmann GmbH in December 2022, and is a partial 
settlement of the Company’s ongoing legal action 
in Australia.

Cyclopharm is continuing to vigorously protect 
its intellectual property by pursuing its ongoing 
legal action against the remaining Australian and 
German defendants. During 2024, the Company 
expects to return to the NSW Supreme Court and 
proceedings in Germany to progress Cyclopharm’s 
claims. The Board remains confident of a 
favourable outcome to these legal proceedings.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's ReviewCorporate Governance
In line with good corporate governance practices, 
Cyclopharm’s Board continually evaluates 
its skills and composition to ensure they 
appropriately support the Company’s growth 
and governance requirements.

On 19 February 2024, Cyclopharm announced 
that Mr John Wigglesworth was appointed as a 
Non-Executive Director to fill a casual vacancy 
on the board. Mr Wigglesworth is a Chartered 
Accountant and Company Director with 37 years 
professional experience, including 24 years as a 
Partner at KPMG. 

As Cyclopharm enters its next phase of 
substantial growth, Mr Wigglesworth’s experience 
will be a valuable asset to the company. 

Leadership Team 
Cyclopharm’s focus on its strategic pillars 
allowed the Company to grow and build a 
talented team, specifically in the US, to prepare 
for the rapid roll out of Technegas™ following 
the USFDA approval in September this year. This 
meant that the Company has hit the ground 
running in the US market, which will create 
both a step change in the business’ financial and 
operational performance as well as mark a new 
phase in the growth of the business.

On 12 February 2024 Cyclopharm announced the 
appointment of Mr Jason Smith as Chief Financial 
Officer (CFO), effective 26 February 2024.

Mr Smith brings a wealth of industry experience 
in Financial Control and Accounting, both at 
Cochlear and at a large multinational in the 
United Kingdom. He is CA qualified, gained 
through his time working as an external auditor 
at Deloitte.

The breadth and depth of experience and the 
integration of complementary skills across the 
Cyclopharm management team, which we have 
put in place, developed and refined over the past 
several years, ensures that we are well positioned 
to rapidly take advantage of entry into the US 
market and the opportunities that will naturally 
flow from our Beyond PE initiatives.

Summary and outlook
In 2023 Cyclopharm has again demonstrated 
the strength and resilience of the business by 
delivering another record revenue performance. 
We have initiated sales process of our proprietary 
Technegas™ technology into the US market, 
which we expect to drive an exponential change 
in the growth of our core business. In addition, 
we continue to grow third party sales and 
cumulatively we are delivering on our strategy of 
revenue diversification across the group. 

Cyclopharm’s ability to initiate sales of 
Technegas™ in the US is the result of the 
persistence and hard work of our highly skilled 
global team along with the unwavering support 
of our Board and shareholders through the 
process to secured USFDA approval. Importantly, 
USFDA approval has also established a platform 
for maximising the breadth of clinical use of 
Technegas™ across a wide range of respiratory 
applications going forward.

While USFDA approval for Technegas™ is a 
major milestone for Cyclopharm, our ability 
to now make this technology available to US 
clinicians and to the patients they serve, is 
where the key significance lies. Our preparation 
for a rapid entry into the US market, based on 
our global experience, consisted of building our 
inventory along with US service and training 
capabilities. The existing and substantial clinical 
demand does not require a large sales force to 
promote a product that has been long sought 
after clinically in the US market. We look forward 
to providing you with regular updates on the US 
rollout of Technegas™ as we proceed with this 
exciting new phase for the company.

The Company’s strong balance sheet and cash 
balance at year-end of $11.73 million means 
we are sufficiently funded to launch the initial 
rollout of Technegas™ in the US market as well 
as our growth aspirations in the rest of the 
countries in which we operate.

We are also continuing to accelerate 
opportunities, via clinical trials, to develop 
our Beyond PE strategy, designed to expand 
the use of Technegas™ into the treatment and 
management of additional and exponentially 
larger indications, such as COPD, Asthma and 
Long-COVID.

12

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Managing Director's ReviewAdditional clinical papers are expected to be 
published in 2024 focusing on obstructive 
pulmonary disease. Cyclopharm estimates 
there are over 500 million patients suffering 
collectively with COPD and/or Asthma who may 
benefit from the use of Technegas™. Notably, the 
global COPD market is approximately 30 times 
the size of the PE market. The Company’s entry 
into the US market, the largest medical market 
in the world, is also expected to accelerate this 
Beyond PE strategy. 

Cyclopharm has never been better placed to 
extend its market leadership in lung imaging 
and drive ongoing growth in revenue and 
earnings. Following USFDA approval, the 
Company is entering its next growth phase 
from a position of strength, having delivered 
record 2023 sales revenues, robust sales of 
Technegas™ and continuing strong growth 
in third party sales.

The Company has already commenced sales in 
the USA and we expect that to continue at pace 
in 2024. The US market will be a major catalyst 
for our growth aspirations, alongside our well 
established existing operations in 64 additional 
countries. 

Finally, I thank all my colleagues, the 
Cyclopharm Board, with a special thanks to 
my entire global team, who collectively have 
contributed to the growth of the Company 
over recent years. On behalf of the Cyclopharm 
management team, with the ongoing support 
of the Board, we are absolutely committed to 
delivering positive health outcomes for our 
patients and growing financial rewards to 
our shareholders.

Operating and Financial Review 

Operating results for the year
For the financial year, Cyclopharm recorded a 
consolidated loss after tax of $4,700,806. Loss after 
tax from the operations of the Technegas™ division 
was $8,364,315 while the Molecular Imaging 
Division contributed profit after tax of $3,663,509.

Technegas™ divisional revenue of $26,339,389 
was 15.1% higher than the previous year (2022: 
$22,878,333) with $11,913,418 (2022: $9,215,071) 
from distributing third-party products to the 
diagnostic imaging sector. 

Technegas™ division loss before tax of $8,149,516 
(2022: $6,410,559) recorded an unfavourable 
variance of $1,738,957 impacted by $2.61 million 
increase in employee benefits expense. Employee 
benefits expense was higher at $11,690,163 (2022: 
$9,081,003) reflecting ongoing investment in human 
capital to meet global regulatory requirements 
which includes compliance with USFDA guidelines. 
The loss was mitigated by a $1.32 million decrease 
in distribution costs to $1.07 million with the 
easing in inflationary pressures of distribution and 
logistics costs as worldwide supply chains continue 
to stabilise. 

USFDA clinical trial costs totalling $3,490,346 
(2022: $2,973,729) also contributed to the 
Technegas™ division loss before tax. 

The Molecular Imaging division’s profit after 
tax comprised of $3.16 million partial reversal of 
impairment to the cyclotron facility in recognition 
of the financial distributions received from 
Cyclotek NSW Pty Ltd which contributed $800,172 
to total revenue, up from $340,464 in 2022.

Significant events after balance date
No matters or circumstances have arisen since the 
end of the financial year, not otherwise disclosed

or may significantly affect the operations of the 
economic entity, the results of those operations, 
or the state of affairs of the economic entity in 
future financial periods.

Likely developments and future results

Technegas™
The opportunities for developing additional 
Technegas™ indications, particularly for asthma 
and COPD, will continue to be a key priority. If 
successful, there is significant potential to expand 
Technegas’™ revenue and profitability over the 
medium to longer term.

USFDA approval to sell Technegas™ into the 
USA market provides Cyclopharm with the 
opportunity to significantly expand its sales 
and profitability. In preparation for a rapid 
entry into the US market the Company has been 
building inventory along with US sales and service 
capabilities and infrastructure. The USA presents 
Cyclopharm with an initial transformational 
market opportunity for the diagnosis of pulmonary 
embolism estimated at US$180 million annually. 

Ultralute™
Cyclopharm is currently progressing the 
registration of Ultralute™ in Europe as a medical 
device to support better acceptance of this new 
first in class technology. Changes to Medical 
Device Regulations in the European Union (EU) 
required recertification of existing medical 
devices against more onerous standards. This 
process has dramatically slowed the introduction 
of new products into the EU with the result that 
the registration of Ultralute™ in Europe was not 
completed in 2023, and consequently there were 
no revenues from the sale of Ultralute™.

Cyclopharm is engaging regulatory partners both in 
Australia and in Europe to progress this initiative. 

Third-party distribution
Cyclopharm has leveraged its regulatory expertise 
and operational footprint globally to establish a 
third-party distribution business that is delivering 
exceptional growth. Third-party revenue is a 
combination of capital works projects and ongoing 
sales from consumables and related service support. 

These growing third-party partnerships continue 
to reinforce the Company’s strategy of pursuing 
additional and complementary revenue streams. 
Initially introduced to leverage off our Technegas™ 
sales and service infrastructure, this initiative 
is now providing a material contribution to the 
Company’s earnings and revenue and is emerging 
as a core part of the business. 

17

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportMaterial business risks 
The Directors have identified the following 
material business risks which may, if they 
eventuate, substantially impact on the future 
performance of the Cyclopharm Group, along with 
its approach to managing these risks. The risk 
factors listed below are not exhaustive. Additional 
risks may also adversely affect the financial 
performance of Cyclopharm.

Regulatory
Future expansion of Cyclopharm’s range of 
products and services may be governed by 
regulatory controls in each target market and it 
is not possible for Cyclopharm to guarantee that 
approvals in all target markets will be obtained and 
maintained in the future.

The Technegas™ System is required to be registered 
with the relevant regulatory bodies in each country 
or relevant jurisdiction. If for any reason such 
product registrations are withdrawn, cancelled (or 
otherwise lose their registered status) or are not 
renewed, it may have a significant effect on the 
sales of products which rely on them in the relevant 
country or countries.

The manufacture of Technegas™ does not involve 
the emission of any environmentally sensitive 
materials and the Cyclopharm Group is not 
required to hold any environmental licence or 
consent under the Environmental Protection Act 
(Cth). However, in order to expand the Company’s 
research and development capabilities, in 2018, 
Cyclopharm secured and maintains a Radiation 
Management Licence from the NSW EPA to sell, 
possess and store regulated materials.

It is possible that licensing requirements could 
change with the development of new products 
and any additional regulatory requirements could 
impact upon the profitability of the group.

The Cyclopharm Group has obtained:

 — a listing on the Australian Register of 
Therapeutic Goods Register for the 
Technegas™Plus Technegas™ generator and 
the Patient Administration Set (radio-aerosol 
administration set);

 — CE Mark approvals under the stringent European 
Medical Device Regulations for Technegas™Plus 
Technegas™ Generator and Patient 
Administration Set (PAS) of the Technegas™ 
System;

 — a Marketing Authorisation for Pulmotec™, the 
carbon crucible which is the drug (medicine) 
component of Technegas™ in Europe;

 — a Medical Device Single Assessment Program 

(MDSAP) certificate that is observed primarily by 
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan and the USA;

 — Notified Body recognition that our Quality 

Management System (QMS) complies with the 
requirements of ISO13485:2016 for the design, 
manufacture, installation and repair service of 
the Technegas™ System; and 

 — USFDA New Drug Approval of Technegas™ (kit 

for the preparation of technetium Tc 99m labeled 
carbon inhalation aerosol) for oral inhalation 
use and USFDA 510K approval of the Patient 
Administration Set (PAS).

Ongoing regulatory audits/inspections are 
necessary for the retention and re-certification 
of the above-named certificates/licences for 
continued international distribution of the 
Technegas™ System.

Cyclopet Pty Limited, which is involved in 
the operations of the cyclotron, is subject to 
environmental regulations under the Radiation 
Control Act, 1990 by the Department of 
Environment, Climate Change and Water.

Competition
To date, Cyclopharm has demonstrated that 
it can compete effectively in the medical 
equipment/drug market in Australia and many 
other parts of the world.

The medical equipment/drug industry is 
very competitive and characterised by large 
international companies supplying much of the 
global market requirements. The emergence of 
new and/or unauthorised generic technologies 
could in certain circumstances make the 
Technegas™ System redundant or negatively 
impact on the Cyclopharm Group’s plans to 
develop its Ultralute™ business. 

Accordingly, there is a business risk in that 
Cyclopharm’s key revenue source from the 
Technegas™ System could be severely disrupted or 
reduced. There are products that do compete with 
Technegas™, in particular Computed Tomography. 
These products could replace Technegas™ and 
therefore negatively impact Cyclopharm Group’s 
revenue and profitability. The Directors note that 
the lengthy periods it takes to achieve regulatory 
approval and gain medical practitioners’ approval 
and acceptance of new or generic products, 
Cyclopharm Group’s reputation for timely and 
quality service, the safety record of Technegas™ 
and its competitive pricing, mitigate these risks. 

In addition, the Cyclopharm Group’s business plan 
and stated strategy is to continue to develop sales 
in new and existing international markets and to 
develop new diagnostic purposes for Technegas™.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportReputation
The performance of Cyclopharm Group’s products 
is critical to its reputation and to its ability to 
achieve market acceptance of these products. 
Any product failure could have a material adverse 
effect on Cyclopharm Group’s reputation as a 
supplier of these products. Technegas™ has had no 
contraindications or serious attributable adverse 
patient events since the commencement of sales. 

Disruption of business operations
As a manufacturer, the Cyclopharm Group is 
exposed to a range of operational risks relating 
to both current and future operations. Such 
operational risks include supply chain disruptions, 
equipment failures, IT system failures, external 
services failure (including energy supply), industrial 
action or disputes and natural disasters. If one 
or more such operational risks materialize, they 
may have an adverse impact on the operating and 
financial performance of Cyclopharm.

Reliance on distributors/loss of key customers
The Cyclopharm Group operates through a series 
of contractual relationships with customers, 
suppliers, distributors and independent 
contractors. To date, the Cyclopharm Group has 
generally provided products and services on the 
basis of tenders submitted to customers, followed 
by purchase orders incorporating the customer’s 
standard terms and conditions of trade as a 
condition of the acceptance. 

Cyclopharm Group maintains a spread of customers 
through direct and indirect sales channels. The 
loss of a major distributor could have a significant, 
adverse impact on Cyclopharm’s projected earnings. 
The majority of sales through distributors or agents 
are managed through contractual arrangements. 
Whilst the Cyclopharm Group has distribution 
agreements in place, some may be terminated by 
the distributor with up to six months’ notice prior 
to the expiration of the current terms (which vary). 
Other sales arrangements are not in writing and 
depend on the ongoing goodwill of the parties. The 
Directors are concerned to ensure that all such 
relationships are formalised.

All contracts, including those entered into by the 
Cyclopharm Group, carry a risk that the respective 
parties will not adequately or fully comply with 
their respective contractual rights and obligations 
or that these contractual relationships may be 
terminated.

Cyclopharm’s financial result could be adversely 
affected by the loss of large customers, a change in 
the terms of business with a large customer, or by 
such customers not adequately or fully complying 
with their respective contractual rights and 
obligations. However, the risks are mitigated by the 
existence of numerous alternatives available given 
that Technegas™ is a highly sought after product.

Currency and exchange rate fluctuations
The financial contribution to the Cyclopharm 
Group of the Technegas™ System will depend 
on the movement in exchange rates between 
the Australian dollar and a number of foreign 
currencies, particularly the Euro. 

The exchange rate between various currencies 
may fluctuate substantially and the result of these 
fluctuations may have a material adverse impact 
on Cyclopharm’s operating results and financial 
position. In the long term, Cyclopharm’s ability 
to compete against imported products may be 
adversely affected by an expectation of a sustained 
period of a high Australian dollar that would reduce 
the Cyclopharm Group’s price competitiveness. 

The majority of the Cyclopharm Group’s 
operational expenses are currently payable in 
Australian dollars. The Cyclopharm Group also 
supplies its product to overseas markets and hence 
is exposed to movements in the A$ exchange rate. 
The Cyclopharm Group does not enter into forward 
exchange contracts to hedge its anticipated 
purchase and sale commitments denominated in 
foreign currencies. As such, Cyclopharm is exposed 
to exchange rate fluctuations.

Doing business internationally
As the Cyclopharm Group is and will continue 
operating in numerous countries, the Cyclopharm 
Group will be exposed to risks such as unexpected 
changes in regulatory requirements (including 
taxation), longer payment cycles, problems in 
collecting debts, fluctuation in currency exchange 
rates, foreign exchange controls which restrict 
or prohibit repatriation of funds and potentially 
adverse tax consequences, all of which could 
adversely impact on Cyclopharm.

The Cyclopharm Group currently requires, and in 
the future may require further, licenses to operate 
in foreign countries which may be difficult to obtain 
and retain depending on government policies and 
political circumstances.

Intellectual property rights
The Cyclopharm Group’s success may be affected 
by its ability to maintain patent protection for 
products and processes, to preserve its trade secrets 
and to operate without infringing the proprietary 
rights of third parties.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportPatents
Unless challenged, the validity of a patent or 
trademark may be assumed. Any patent or 
trademark may be challenged on a number of 
grounds but the onus is on the party seeking 
revocation to establish those grounds.

All patents and trademarks require renewal 
at regular dates and if not renewed will expire. 
It is the Cyclopharm Group’s practice to renew 
its patents and trademarks as required. The 
Directors note that whilst some patents have 
expired or have not been renewed, or remain to 
be transferred or licensed to Cyclopharm Group 
companies, there remains sufficient protection 
in these countries through other patent 
arrangements in place or being put in place.

The validity and breadth of claims covered 
in patents involve complex legal and factual 
questions and therefore may be highly uncertain. 
No assurance can be given that the pending 
applications will result in patents being issued, 
that such patents or the current patents will 
provide a competitive advantage or that 
competitors of the Cyclopharm Group will not 
design around any patents issued. Further, any 
information contained in the patent applications 
will become part of the public domain, so that it 
will not be protected as confidential information. 
As legal regulations and standards relating to the 
validity and scope of patents evolve, the degree 
of future protection of the Cyclopharm Group’s 
proprietary rights is uncertain. However, those 
regulations and standards in the field of nuclear 
medicine (in which the Cyclopharm Group’s 
technology resides) are relatively well established 
and non-controversial.

Environmental regulations
Cyclopet Pty Limited, a member of the 
consolidated group’s operations is subject to 
environmental regulations under the Radiation 
Control Act, 1990 by the Department of 
Environment, Climate Change and Water. The 
Board believe that the consolidated group has 
adequate systems in place for the management of 
its environmental requirements as they apply to 
the consolidated group and its Business Venture 
Collaboration Agreement with Cyclotek NSW 
Pty Ltd.

Retirement, election and continuation 
in office of directors
In accordance with the Company’s Constitution, 
all Directors have been elected by members at the 
Annual General Meeting (AGM) with the exception 
of Mr McBrayer. Mr McBrayer was appointed as 
Managing Director on 3 June 2008 and under the 
Constitution is exempt from election by members.

Indemnification and insurance of officers
In accordance with clause 49.1 of Cyclopharm’s 
constitution and section 199A of the 
Corporations Act 2001 the Company has 
resolved to indemnify its Directors and Officers 
for a liability to a third-party provided that:

1. 

2. 

the liability does not arise from conduct 
involving a lack of good faith; or
the liability is for costs and expenses incurred 
by the Director or Officer in defending 
proceedings save as not permitted by law.

During or since the financial year, the Company 
has paid premiums in respect of a contract 
insuring all the Directors against legal costs 
incurred in defending proceedings for conduct 
involving:

a)  a wilful breach of duty; or
b)  a contravention of sections 182 or 183 of the 

Corporations Act 2001, as permitted by section 
199B of the Corporations Act 2001.

The total amount of insurance contract premiums 
paid for the year ending 31 December 2023 is 
$40,000 (for the year ended 31 December 2022: 
$35,076).

The Officers of the Company covered by the 
insurance policy include the Directors, the 
Company Secretary and Executive Officers. The 
indemnification of the Directors and Officers will 
extend for a period of at least 6 years in relation 
to events taking place during their tenure (unless 
the Corporations Act 2001 otherwise precludes 
this time frame of protection.)

The liabilities insured include costs and expenses 
that may be brought against the Officers in their 
capacity as Officers of the Company that may be 
incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings 
that may be brought against the Officers of the 
Company or a controlled entity.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportAuditor’s Independence Declaration
A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration 
as required under section 307C of the Corporations 
Act 2001 is set out on page 31.

Fees of $19,277 (2022: $26,909) for taxation services 
to an associate of Nexia Sydney Audit Pty Ltd for 
the year ended 31 December 2023 for non-audit 
related services. The Board of Directors is satisfied 
that the provision of non-audit services during 
the year is compatible with the general standard 
of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001. The nature and scope of each 
type of non-audit service does not compromise the 
general principles relating to auditor independence 
in accordance with APES 110: Code of Ethics for 
Professional Accountants set by the Accounting 
Professional and Ethical Standards Board.

The Company has not during or since the financial 
year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an auditor 
of the Company or any related body corporate.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportRemuneration Committee
During the current financial year, the 
Remuneration Committee comprised of Mr Heaney, 
who is the Chairman of the Remuneration 
Committee, Ms Angus and Mr Barrow. 

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

The Remuneration Committee is responsible for:

 — reviewing and approving the remuneration of 
Directors and other senior executives; and
 — reviewing the remuneration policies of the 

Company generally.

Remuneration philosophy
The performance of the Company depends upon the 
quality of its Directors and executives. To prosper, 
the Company must attract, motivate and retain 
highly skilled Directors and executives.

To this end, the Company embodies the following 
principles in its remuneration framework:

 — provide competitive rewards to attract high 

calibre executives;

 — link executive rewards to shareholder value;
 — have a significant portion of executive 

remuneration ‘at risk’; and

 — establish appropriate, demanding performance 
hurdles for variable executive remuneration.

Non-executive Director remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration 
at a level that provides the Company with the 
ability to attract and retain Directors of the highest 
calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable 
to Shareholders.

Structure
The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify 
that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive 
Directors shall be determined from time to time by 
a general meeting. The latest determination was at 
the Annual General Meeting held in May 2023 when 
Shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration 
increase from $350,000 to $450,000 per year.

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to 
be approved by Shareholders and the fee structure 
is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice 
from external consultants as well as the fees paid to 
non-executive Directors of comparable companies 
when undertaking the annual review process.

Each director receives a fee as set out in the 
Director and Executive Remuneration Table for 
being a director of the Company. Directors’ fees 
cover all main Board activities and the membership 
of committees. There are no additional fees for 
committee membership. These fees exclude any 
additional ‘fee for service’ based on arrangements 
with the Company, which may be agreed from time 
to time. Agreed out of pocket expenses are payable 
in addition to Directors’ fees. There is no retirement 
or other long service benefits that accrue upon 
appointment to the Board. Retiring non-executive 
Directors are not currently entitled to receive a 
retirement allowance.

27

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ ReportExecutive remuneration
Objective
The Company aims to reward executives with 
a level and mix of remuneration commensurate 
with their position and responsibilities within the 
Company so as to:

 — reward executives for Company, business unit 
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.

In determining the level and make-up of executive 
remuneration, the Remuneration Committee 
engages external consultants as needed to provide 
independent advice.

The Remuneration Committee has entered into 
a detailed contract of employment with the 
Managing Director and a standard contract with 
other executives. Details of these contracts are 
provided below.

Remuneration consists of the following key 
elements:

 — Fixed remuneration (base salary, superannuation 

and non-monetary benefits); and

 — Variable remuneration

•  short term incentive (STI); and
•  long term incentive (LTI).

The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable 
remuneration (potential short term and long term 
incentives) for each executive is set out in the 
Director and Executive Remuneration Table.

Fixed Remuneration
Objective
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the 
Remuneration Committee. The process consists 
of a review of Company, business unit and 
individual performance, relevant comparative 
remuneration in the market and internally and, 
where appropriate, external advice on policies 
and practices. As noted above, the Committee 
has access to external advice independent 
of management.

Structure
Executives are given the opportunity to receive 
their fixed (primary) remuneration in a variety 
of forms including cash and fringe benefits. 
It is intended that the manner of payment 
chosen will be optimal for the recipient without 
creating undue cost for the Group. All forms 
of executive remuneration are detailed in the 
Remuneration Report.

Variable remuneration – Short Term Incentive (STI)
The objective of the STI is to link the achievement 
of the Group’s operational targets with 
remuneration received by the executives charged 
with meeting those targets. The total potential 
STI available is set at a level so as to provide 
sufficient incentive to the executive to achieve the 
operational targets and such that the cost to the 
Group is reasonable in the circumstances.

Actual STI payments granted to each executive 
depends on the extent to which specific targets set 
at the beginning of the year are met. The targets 
consist of a number of Key Performance Indicators 
(KPI’s) covering both financial and non-financial, 
corporate and individual measures of performance. 
Typically included measures are sales, net profit 
after tax, customer service, risk management and 
leadership/team contribution. These measures 
were chosen as they represent the key drivers for 
short term success of the business and provide a 
framework for long term value.

The Group has predetermined benchmarks that 
must be met in order to trigger payments under the 
STI scheme. On an annual basis, after consideration 
of performance against KPI’s, the Remuneration 
Committee, in line with their responsibilities, 
determine the amount, if any, of the short term 
incentive to be paid to each executive. This process 
usually occurs within 3 months of reporting date.

The aggregate of annual STI payments available 
for executives across the Group is subject to the 
approval of the Remuneration Committee. Payments 
are delivered as a cash bonus in the following 
reporting period. Participation in the Short Term 
Incentive Plan is at the Directors’ discretion.

Variable remuneration – Long Term Incentive (LTI)
Long Term incentives are delivered under the Long 
Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), which is designed to 
reward sustainable, long-term performance in a 
transparent manner. Under the LTIP, individuals 
are granted LTIP shares, which have a two or three 
year performance periods (Term). The number of 
LTIP shares is determined by the Board. The number 
of LTIP shares that an individual will be entitled to 
at the end of the Term will depend on the extent to 
which the hurdle has been met. Performance hurdles 
are determined by the Board to align individual 
performance with the Company’s performance.

At the Annual General Meeting held on 8 May 
2007, Shareholders approved the Company’s Long 
Term Incentive Plan (“Plan”). An updated Plan 
was approved by Shareholders on 29 May 2018 and 
4 May 2021.

28

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Directors’ Report — As approved by shareholders at the May 2019 

AGM, 200,000 options were granted on 27 May 
2019 and 539,525 shares comprising 269,911 
ordinary shares and 269,614 LTIP shares were 
issued in accordance with the Company’s Long 
Term Incentive Plan on 11 December 2019 to 
Mr McBrayer. 

 — As approved by shareholders at the July 2020 
AGM, 1,015,500 shares comprising 257,750 
ordinary shares and 757,750 LTIP shares were 
issued in accordance with the Company’s 
Long Term Incentive Plan on 24 July 2020 to 
Mr McBrayer. The 257,750 ordinary shares can 
be freely traded on and from the date of issue. 
A strictly limited non-recourse loan was made to 
Mr McBrayer to purchase 500,000 shares at the 
price of $1.83 per share while 257,750 LTIP shares 
are held in a holding lock until the loan on the 
1,721,554 shares issued on 13 July 2015 is repaid 
in full by 30 June 2024.

Other Executives (standard contracts)
All executives have rolling contracts. The Company 
may terminate the executive’s employment 
agreement by providing (depending on the 
individual’s contract) between 1 to 6 months’ 
written notice or providing payment in lieu of the 
notice period. Where termination with cause occurs 
the executive is only entitled to that portion of 
remuneration that is fixed, and only up to the date 
of termination. 

Related Parties
The Directors disclose any conflict of interests in 
Directors’ meetings as per the requirements under 
the Corporations Act (2001). Any disclosures that 
are considered to fall under the definition of related 
parties as per AASB 124 ‘Related Party Disclosures’ 
are made in the Directors’ meetings and minuted.

End of Remuneration Report 

The purpose of the Plan is to encourage employees, 
Directors and officers to share in the ownership of 
the Company and therefore retain and motivate 
senior executives to drive performance at both 
the individual and corporate level. Performance 
hurdles have been determined by the Board to align 
individual performance with the Company’s key 
success factors.

Summary of Significant 
Accounting Policies

a)  Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are general purpose 
financial statements that have been prepared in 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, 
Australian Accounting Interpretations, other 
authoritative pronouncements of the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the 
Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit 
entity for financial reporting purposes under 
Australian Accounting Standards. 

Australian Accounting Standards set out 
accounting policies that the AASB has concluded 
would result in financial statements containing 
relevant and reliable information about 
transactions, events and conditions. Compliance 
with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that 
the financial statements and notes also comply 
with International Financial Reporting Standards 
as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies 
adopted in the preparation of these financial 
statements are presented below and have been 
consistently applied unless stated otherwise.

Except for cash flow information, the financial 
statements have been prepared on an accruals basis 
and are based on historical costs, modified, where 
applicable, by the measurement at fair value of 
selected non-current assets, financial assets and 
financial liabilities.

The financial report is presented in Australian 
dollars.

b)   New and amended Accounting 
Policies adopted by the Group

Consolidated financial statements
The Group has adopted all of the new or amended 
Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by 
the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) 
that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

None of the new or amended Accounting Standards 
and Interpretations has had a material impact on 
the Group’s financial statements.

c)   New Accounting Standards and 

Interpretations not yet mandatory 
or early adopted 

Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations that have recently been issued or 
amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been 
early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting 
period ended 31 December 2023. These new or 
amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations 
are not expected to have a material impact on the 
consolidated entity’s financial statements.

d)  Basis of consolidation
Cyclopharm Limited is the ultimate parent 
entity (“the Parent”) in the wholly owned group. 
The consolidated financial statements comprise 
the financial statements of Cyclopharm and 
its subsidiaries as at 31 December each year 
(‘the Group’). 

The Group’s financial statements consolidate those 
of the parent company and all of its subsidiaries as of 
31 December 2023. All subsidiaries have a reporting 
date of 31 December.

Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on 
which control is transferred to the Group and cease 
to be consolidated from the date on which control is 
transferred out of the Group. Where there is loss of 
control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial 
statements include the results for the part of the 
reporting period during which the Parent has control.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are 
prepared for the same reporting period as the 
parent Company, using consistent accounting 
policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line 
any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

36

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised 
gains on transactions between entities in the 
consolidated entity are eliminated. Unrealised losses 
are also eliminated unless the transaction provides 
evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. 
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been 
changed where necessary to ensure consistency with 
the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.

For business combinations involving entities under 
common control, which are outside the scope of 
AASB 3 Business Combinations, the Company 
applies the purchase method of accounting by the 
legal parent.

e)  Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the group’s 
entities is measured using the currency of the 
primary economic environment in which that entity 
operates. The consolidated financial statements 
are presented in Australian dollars (AUD $) which 
is the parent entity’s functional and presentation 
currency.

Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially 
recorded in the functional currency at the exchange 
rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Foreign 
currency monetary items are translated at the 
year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items that 
are measured in terms of historical cost continue 
to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the 
transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair 
value are reported at the exchange rate when the 
fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of 
monetary items are recognised in the Statement of 
Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, 
except where deferred in equity as a qualifying 
cash flow hedge or net investment hedge. On 
disposal of a foreign entity the deferred cumulative 
amount in equity is recognised in the Statement of 
Comprehensive Income. 

Group companies
The functional currency of the overseas subsidiaries 
Cyclomedica Ireland Limited, Cyclomedica 
Germany GmbH, Cyclomedica Europe Limited, 
and Cyclomedica Benelux bvba, is European Euro 
(Euro €), Cyclomedica Nordic AB is Swedish Kroner 
(SEK), Cyclomedica Canada Limited is Canadian 
dollars (Can $), Cyclomedica UK Ltd is Great 
British Pound (GBP) and Dupharma ApS is Danish 
Kroner (DKK).

The financial results and position of foreign 
operations whose functional currency is different 
from the group’s presentation currency are 
translated as follows:

 — Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end 
exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date.

 — Income and expenses are translated at the 

average exchange rates for the period.

 — Retained profits/equity are translated at the 
exchange rates prevailing at the date of the 
transaction.

Exchange differences arising on the translation 
of foreign operations are recognised in other 
comprehensive income and are transferred 
directly to the Group’s foreign currency translation 
reserve in the Statement of Financial Position. 
On disposal of a foreign operation, the related 
cumulative translation differences recognised 
in equity are reclassified to profit or loss and are 
recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal. 
Exchange differences are charged or credited to 
other comprehensive income and recognised in the 
currency translation reserve in equity.

Income tax

f) 
Income tax on the profit and loss for the year 
comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax 
is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive 
Income, except to the extent that it relates to items 
recognised directly to equity, in which case it is 
recognised in equity. Current tax is the expected 
tax payable on the taxable income for the year, 
using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted 
at the Statement of Financial Position date, 
and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of 
previous years.

37

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Deferred tax is provided using the Statement of 
Financial Position liability method, providing 
for temporary differences between the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial 
reporting purposes and the amounts used for 
taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax 
provided is based on the expected manner of 
realisation or settlement of the carrying amount 
of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or 
substantially enacted at the Statement of Financial 
Position date and are expected to apply when the 
deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax 
liability is settled. A deferred tax asset is recognised 
only to the extent that it is probable that future 
taxable profits will be available against which 
the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are 
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable 
that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Tax consolidation
Cyclopharm Limited is the head entity of the tax 
consolidated group comprising all the Australian 
wholly owned subsidiaries. The implementation 
date for the tax consolidated group was 31 May 
2006. Current tax expense/income, deferred tax 
liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from 
temporary differences of the members of the tax 
consolidated group are recognised in the separate 
financial statements of the members of the tax 
consolidated group using a “stand-alone basis 
without adjusting for intercompany transactions” 
approach by reference to the carrying amounts 
of assets and liabilities in the separate financial 
statements of each entity and the tax values 
applying under consolidation.

Any current Australian tax liabilities (or assets) and 
deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses 
of the subsidiaries is assumed by the head entity in 
the tax consolidated group and are recognised as 
amounts payable (receivable) to (from) other entities 
in the tax consolidated group. Any difference 
between these amounts is recognised by the head 
entity as an equity contribution or distribution.

Cyclopharm Limited recognises deferred tax 
assets arising from unused tax losses of the tax 
consolidated group to the extent that it is probable 
that future taxable profits of the tax consolidated 
group will be available against which the asset can 
be utilised.

Any subsequent period adjustments to deferred 
tax assets arising from unused tax losses as a 
result of revised assessments of the probability of 
recoverability is recognised by the head entity only.

g)  Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the 
commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use 
asset is measured at cost, which comprises the 
initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted 
for, as applicable, any lease payments made at 
or before the commencement date net of any 
lease incentives received, any initial direct costs 
incurred, and, except where included in the cost 
of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to 
be incurred for dismantling and removing the 
underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a 
straight-line basis over the unexpired period of 
the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, 
whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects 
to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the 
end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its 
estimated useful life. Right-of-use assets are subject 
to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement 
of lease liabilities.

The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-
use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-
term leases with terms of 12 months or less and 
leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these 
assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

h)  Property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is measured at cost less 
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the 
economic entity 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 
Comprehensive Income during the financial period 
in which they areincurred.

Impairment
The carrying amount of plant and equipment 
is reviewed annually by Directors to consider 
impairment. The recoverable amount is assessed 
on the basis of the expected net cash flows that 
will be received from the assets employment and 
subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows 
have been discounted to their present values in 
determining recoverable amounts.

38

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets 
including capitalised lease assets are depreciated 
on a straight-line basis over their useful lives 
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.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis 
over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Plant and equipment

5 – 33%

Leasehold Improvements

7.5 – 10%

Method
Straight-line

method

An item of property, plant and equipment is 
derecognised upon disposal or when no future 
economic benefits are expected to arise from the 
continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising 
on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the 
difference between the net disposal proceeds and 
the carrying amount of the item) is included in the 
Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year 
the item is derecognised. 

i) 

 Investments accounted for using 
the equity method

Associates are companies in which the Group has 
significant influence through holding, directly or 
indirectly, 20% or more of the voting power of the 
Group. Investments in associates are accounted for 
in the financial statements by applying the equity 
method of accounting, whereby the investment is 
initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter 
for the post-acquisition change in the Group’s 
share of net assets of the associate company. In 
addition, the Group’s share of the profit or loss of 
the associate company is included in the Group’s 
profit or loss.

The carrying amount of the investment includes 
goodwill relating to the associate. Any discount 
on acquisition whereby the Group’s share of the 
net fair value of the associate exceeds the cost of 
investment is recognised in profit or loss in the 
period in which the investment is acquired. The 
carrying amount of the investment also includes 
loans made to the associate which are not expected 
to be repaid in the short term. 

Profit and losses resulting from transactions 
between the Group and the associate are eliminated 
to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate.

When the Group’s share of losses in an associate 
equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the 
Group discontinues recognising its share of further 
losses unless it has incurred legal or constructive 
obligations or made payments on behalf of the 
associate. When the associate subsequently makes 
profits, the Group will resume recognising its share 
of those profits once its share of the profits equals 
the share of the losses not recognised.

Details of the Group’s investments in associates are 
provided in Note 13.

j) 

Intangibles

Intangible assets 
Intangible assets acquired as part of a business 
combination other than goodwill, are initially 
measured at their fair value at the date of the 
acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately 
are initially recognised at cost.

Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised 
and are subsequently measured at cost less any 
impairment. Finite life intangible assets are 
subsequently measured at cost less amortisation 
and any impairment.

The gains and losses recognised in profit or loss 
arising from the derecognition of intangible assets 
are measured as the difference between net 
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the 
intangible assets. The method and useful lives of 
finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually.

Internally generated intangible assets, excluding 
development costs, are not capitalised and are 
recorded as an expense in the Statement of Profit 
or Loss.

Intangible assets are tested for impairment where 
an indicator of impairment exists, and in the case 
of indefinite life intangibles, at each reporting date, 
either individually or at the cash generating unit 
level. Useful lives are also examined on an annual 
basis and adjustments, where applicable, are made 
on a prospective basis.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Expenditure on the development of the 
Technegas™Plus and Ultralute generator has been 
capitalised. Costs will be amortised once the asset 
development is completed and the asset ready for 
use. No impairment provision has been deemed 
appropriate. The Directors are satisfied that the 
future economic benefits will eventuate to justify 
the capitalisation of the expenditure incurred. 
Development expenditure is tested annually for 
impairment or more frequently if events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.

Research and development costs
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as 
an expense when incurred. 

Expenditure on development activities is 
capitalised only when it is probable that the project 
will be a success considering its commercial and 
technical feasibility; the Group is able to use or sell 
the asset; the Group has sufficient resources; and 
intend to complete the development and its costs 
can be measured reliably. Development expenditure 
is measured at cost less any accumulated 
amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation 
is calculated using a straight-line method to 
allocate the costs over a period during which the 
related benefits are expected to be realised.

k)  Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net 
realisable value where net realisable value is the 
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of 
business, less estimated costs of completion and the 
estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Costs incurred in bringing each product to its 
present location and conditions are accounted for 
as follows:

 — Raw materials: purchase cost on a first-in, 

first-out basis;

 — Finished goods and work-in-progress: cost of 

direct materials and labour and an appropriate 
portion of manufacturing overheads based 
on normal operating capacity but excluding 
borrowing costs.

l)  Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair 
value and subsequently measured at amortised 
cost using the effective interest method, less 
any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade 
receivables are generally due for settlement within 
90 days. The Group has applied the simplified 
approach to measuring expected credit losses, which 
uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure 
the expected credit losses, trade receivables have 
been grouped based on days overdue.

m) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on 
hand, deposits held at call with banks, short-term 
deposits with an original maturity of three months 
or less and bank overdrafts. For the purposes of the 
Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents 
consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined 
above.

n)  Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at 
amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods 
and services provided to the Group prior to the 
end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise 
when the Group becomes obliged to make future 
payments in respect of the purchase of these goods 
and services. Trade payables are normally settled 
within 30 to 60 days.

40

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

o)  Interest-bearing loans and borrowings 
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised 
at cost, being the fair value of the consideration 
received net of issue costs associated with the 
borrowing. After initial recognition, interest-bearing 
loans and borrowings are subsequently measured 
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate 
method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into 
account any issue costs and any discount or premium 
on settlement. Gains and losses are recognised in 
the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the 
liabilities are derecognised and as well as through the 
amortisation process.

q)  Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has 
a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a 
result of past events, for which it is probable that 
an outflow of economic benefits will result and 
that an outflow can be reliably measured. Where 
the Group expects some or all of a provision to 
be reimbursed, for example under an insurance 
contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a 
separate asset but only when the reimbursement 
is virtually certain. The expense relating to 
any provision is presented in the Statement of 
Comprehensive Income net of any reimbursement.

p)  Lease liabilities 
A lease liability is recognised at the 
commencement date of a lease. The lease liability 
is initially recognised at the present value of the 
lease payments to be made over the term of the 
lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit 
in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily 
determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing 
rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments 
less any lease incentives receivable, variable 
lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, 
amounts expected to be paid under residual value 
guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option 
when the exercise of the option is reasonably 
certain to occur, and any anticipated termination 
penalties. The variable lease payments that do not 
depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the 
period in which they are incurred.

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost 
using the effective interest method. The carrying 
amounts are remeasured if there is a change 
in the following: future lease payments arising 
from a change in an index or a rate used; residual 
guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase 
option and termination penalties. When a lease 
liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to 
the corresponding right-of-use asset, or to profit or 
loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset 
is fully written down.

r)  Employee entitlements
Provision is made for employee benefits 
accumulated as a result of employees rendering 
services up to the reporting date. These benefits 
include wages and salaries, annual leave and long 
service leave.

Employee benefits expected to be settled within 
twelve months of the reporting date are measured 
at their nominal amounts based on remuneration 
rates which are expected to be paid when the 
liability is settled plus related on-costs. All other 
employee benefit liabilities are measured at the 
present value of the estimated future cash outflow 
(after applying probability) to be made in respect of 
services provided by employees up to the reporting 
date. In determining the present value of future 
cash outflows, the market yield as at the reporting 
date on national government bonds, which have 
terms to maturity approximating the terms of the 
related liability, are used.

Employee benefit expenses and revenues arising 
in respect of wages and salaries, non-monetary 
benefits, annual leave, long service leave and other 
leave benefits; and other types of employee benefits 
are recognised against profits on a net basis in their 
respective categories.

41

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

s)   Employee share and performance 

share schemes

The fair value of performance rights issued under 
the Cyclopharm Long Term Incentive Plan are 
recognised as a personnel expense over the vesting 
period with a corresponding increase in Employee 
Equity Benefits Reserve.

The fair value of the implied option attached to 
shares granted is determined using a pricing model 
that takes into account factors that include exercise 
price, the term of the performance option, the 
vesting and performance criteria, the share price at 
grant date and the expected price volatility of the 
underlying share. The fair value calculation excludes 
the impact of any non-market vesting conditions. 
Non-market vesting conditions are included in 
assumptions about the number of performance 
options that are expected to become exercisable. 
At each balance date, the entity revises its estimate 
of the number of performance rights that are 
expected to become exercisable. The personnel 
expense recognised each period takes into account 
the most recent estimate.

Shares issued under employee and executive share 
plans are held in trust until vesting date. Unvested 
shares held by the trust are consolidated into the 
group financial statements.

t)  Revenue recognition
The consolidated entity recognises revenue as 
follows:

Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects 
the consideration to which the consolidated 
entity is expected to be entitled in exchange for 
transferring goods or services to a customer. For 
each contract with a customer, the consolidated 
entity: identifies the contract with a customer; 
identifies the performance obligations in the 
contract; determines the transaction price 
which takes into account estimates of variable 
consideration and the time value of money; 
allocates the transaction price to the separate 
performance obligations on the basis of the relative 
stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or 
service to be delivered; and recognises revenue 
when or as each performance obligation is satisfied 
in a manner that depicts the transfer to the 
customer of the goods or services promised.

Variable consideration within the transaction 
price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the 
customer such as discounts, rebates and refunds, 

any potential bonuses receivable from the customer 
and any other contingent events. Such estimates 
are determined using either the ‘expected value’ or 
‘most likely amount’ method. The measurement of 
variable consideration is subject to a constraining 
principle whereby revenue will only be recognised 
to the extent that it is highly probable that a 
significant reversal in the amount of cumulative 
revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement 
constraint continues until the uncertainty 
associated with the variable consideration is 
subsequently resolved. Amounts received that are 
subject to the constraining principle are recognised 
as a refund liability.

Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the 
point in time when the customer obtains control of 
the goods, which is generally at the time of delivery.

Rendering of services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is 
recognised over time as the services are rendered 
based on either a fixed price or an hourly rate.

u)  Other revenue 

Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues 
using the effective interest method. This is a 
method of calculating the amortised cost of a 
financial asset and allocating the interest income 
over the relevant period using the effective 
interest rate, which is the rate that exactly 
discounts estimated future cash receipts through 
the expected life of the financial asset to the net 
carrying amount of the financial asset.

Research & Development Tax Incentive
Government grants, including Research and 
Development incentives, are recognised at fair value 
where there is reasonable assurance that the grant 
will be received and all grant conditions will be met. 

Grants relating to cost reimbursements are 
recognised as other income in profit or loss in the 
period when the costs were incurred or when the 
incentive meets the recognition requirements 
(if later).

Government grants relating to assets are deferred 
and recognised in profit or loss over the period 
necessary to match them with the assets that they 
are intended to compensate.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and 
services tax (“GST”).

42

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

v)  Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of 
the amount of GST except where the GST incurred 
is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation 
Office (“ATO”) and is therefore recognised as part 
of the asset’s cost or as part of the expense item. 
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of 
GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or 
payable to, the ATO is included as part of receivables 
or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. 
Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash 
Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of 
cash flows arising from investing and financing 
activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to 
the taxation authority are classified as operating 
cash flows.

w)  Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised 
when the entity becomes a party to the contractual 
provisions to the instrument.

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 stated 
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate 
method.

Derivative financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on 
the date a derivative contract is entered into and 
are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at 
each reporting date. The accounting for subsequent 
changes in fair value depends on whether the 
derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, 
and if so, the nature of the item being hedged.

De-recognition of financial instruments 
Financial	liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the 
obligation under the liability is discharged or 
cancelled or expires. When an existing financial 
liability is replaced by another from the same lender 
on substantially different terms, or the terms of 
an existing liability are substantially modified, 
such an exchange or modification is treated as 
a de-recognition of the original liability and the 
recognition of a new liability, and the difference in 
the respective carrying amounts is recognised in 
profit or loss. 

Impairment	of	financial	assets
The Group assesses at each Statement of Financial 
Position date whether a financial asset or group of 
financial assets is impaired.

x)  Contributed equity

Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue 
of new shares or options are shown in equity as a 
deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Other contributed equity
In accordance with AASB112 Income Taxes, 
additional contributed equity was recorded to 
recognise the transfer of tax liabilities from Vita 
Medical Limited to Vita Life Sciences Limited, being 
the parent of the Australian tax consolidated group 
at the relevant time. This event occurred prior to 
Cyclopharm Limited acquiring its interests in the 
net assets of Vita Medical Limited.

As part of the restructure a subsidiary of 
Cyclopharm Limited, Vita Medical Australia Pty Ltd 
acquired all the assets, liabilities and business from 
Vita Medical Limited, the former group parent.

With effect from 31 May 2006, Cyclopharm Limited 
also acquired 100% of the other group operating 
subsidiaries from the ultimate holding company, 
Vita Life Sciences Limited. Accordingly, the group 
comprised of Cyclopharm Limited and the following 
wholly owned subsidiaries:

 — Cyclomedica Australia Pty Ltd  

(formerly Vita Medical Australia Pty Ltd)

 — Cyclomedica Ireland Ltd  

(formerly Vitamedica Europe Ltd)

 — Cyclomedica Europe Ltd
 — Cyclomedica Canada Limited  

(formerly Vita Medical Canada Ltd)

 — Cyclomedica Germany GmbH
 — Allrad 28 Pty Ltd (deregistered 16 July 2017)
 — Allrad 29 Pty Ltd (deregistered 16 July 2017)

These entities collectively comprise the medical 
diagnostic equipment and associated consumables 
business formerly operated as the Vita Medical 
Group – now known as the Cyclopharm Group. 
The transaction has been accounted for as a 
‘reverse acquisition’ as defined in AASB 3 Business 
Combinations whereby Cyclopharm Limited is 
the legal parent and Cyclomedica Australia Pty 
Limited is the financial parent, which for accounting 
purposes is deemed to be the acquirer. 

43

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The consideration for the minority interests of 
the controlled entities and costs of acquisition 
have been charged to other contributed equity in 
accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial 
Statements.

y)  Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing 
the net profit/(loss) after income tax attributable 
to members of the Company by the weighted 
average number of ordinary shares outstanding 
during the financial year. Where there is a change 
in the number of ordinary shares on issue without 
a corresponding change in recognised resources 
during the year, the number of ordinary shares for 
all periods presented are correspondingly adjusted 
as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the 
earliest period presented. 

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 ordinary shares. Where there is a change 
in the number of ordinary shares on issue without 
a corresponding change in recognised resources 
during the year, the number of ordinary shares for 
all periods presented are correspondingly adjusted 
as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the 
earliest period presented.

z)  Fair Value 
The Group subsequently measures some of its 
assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Fair 
value is the price the Group would receive to sell 
an asset in an orderly (i.e. unforced) transaction 
between independent, knowledgeable and willing 
market participants at the measurement date.

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest 
equivalent observable market pricing information 
is used to determine fair value. Adjustments to 
market values may be made having regard to the 
characteristics of the specific asset. The fair values 
of assets that are not traded in an active market are 
determined using one or more valuation techniques. 
These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent 
possible, the use of observable market data.

To the extent possible, market information is 
extracted from either the principal market for the 
asset (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and 
level of activity for the asset) or, in the absence 
of such a market, the most advantageous market 
available to the entity at the end of the reporting 
period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts 
from the sale of the asset after taking into account 
transaction costs and transport costs). For 
non-financial assets, the fair value measurement 
also takes into account a market participant’s 
ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or 
to sell it to another market participant that would 
use the asset in its highest and best use.

aa) Significant Accounting Judgements 

and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires 
management to make judgements, estimates 
and assumptions that effect the application of 
accounting policies and the reported amounts of 
assets, liabilities, income and expenses. 

The following are the critical judgements and 
estimates that the directors have made in the 
process of applying the Group’s accounting policies 
and that have the most significant effect on the 
amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Key Estimates 
Impairment – general
The Group assesses impairment at the end of each 
reporting period by evaluating conditions and 
events specific to the Group that may be indicative 
of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of 
relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use 
calculations which incorporate various key 
assumptions. 

The Group’s property, plant and equipment relating 
to the Cyclotron facility have been fully impaired, 
based on management’s assessment that the fair 
value of those assets is nil in the current industry 
circumstances and the condition of the damaged 
assets. Extensive damage to the Cyclotron facility 
caused by substantial water damage in June 2014, 
delayed any decisions about the future use of the 
Cyclotron facility until it is restored to its former 
operational status. In 2019, the Company entered 
into a Business Venture Collaboration Agreement 
with Cyclotek Australia Pty Ltd and Pettech, a 
wholly owned subsidiary of ANSTO. In parallel the 
Company entered into a Business Sale Transfer 
agreement for the operations conducted at the 
Company’s Cyclotron facility located at Macquarie 
University Hospital.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In 2023, the Group’s Cyclotron facility was 
operationally restored, and whilst regulatory 
approval is still pending before its commercial 
use by Cyclotek NSW Pty Ltd, in recognition of 
the financial contributions derived from the 
Collaboration Agreement, the fair value of the 
Cyclotron was written back from nil to $3,160,301 
as at 31 December 2023.

The assumptions used in the estimation of 
recoverable amount and the carrying amount 
of intangible assets are discussed in Note 14. No 
impairment has been recognised in respect of 
intangible assets at the end of the reporting period. 

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
The estimation of the useful lives of assets has 
been based on historical experience as well as 
lease terms and turnover policies. In addition, the 
condition of the assets is assessed at least once per 
year and considered against the remaining useful 
life. Adjustments to useful lives are made when 
considered necessary. 

Lease term
The lease term is a significant component in 
the measurement of both the right-of-use asset 
and lease liability. Judgement is exercised in 
determining whether there is reasonable certainty 
that an option to extend the lease or purchase the 
underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to 
terminate the lease will not be exercised, when 
ascertaining the periods to be included in the 
lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts 
and circumstances that create an economical 
incentive to exercise an extension option, or not 
to exercise a termination option, are considered at 
the lease commencement date. Factors considered 
may include the importance of the asset to the 
Company’s operations; comparison of terms and 
conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence 
of significant penalties; existence of significant 
leasehold improvements; and the costs and 
disruption to replace the asset. The Company 
reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to 
exercise an extension option, or not exercise a 
termination option, if there is a significant event 
or significant change in circumstances.

Incremental borrowing rate
Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot 
be readily determined, an incremental borrowing 
rate is estimated to discount future lease payments 
to measure the present value of the lease liability 
at the lease commencement date. Such a rate is 
based on what the Company estimates it would 

have to pay a third-party to borrow the funds 
necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to 
the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security 
and economic environment.

Share based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled 
transactions with employees by reference to the 
fair value of the equity instruments at the date at 
which they are granted. The accounting estimates 
and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-
based payments would have no impact on the 
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within 
the next annual reporting period but may impact 
expenses and equity. 

The Group measures the cost of share-based 
payments at fair value at the grant date using the 
Black-Scholes formula, taking into account the 
terms and conditions upon which the instruments 
were granted. Refer to Note 26 for details of the 
Company’s Share Based Payment Plan. 

Key Judgements 
Income Tax
The Group’s accounting policy for income tax 
requires management’s judgement in assessing 
whether deferred tax assets and certain deferred 
tax liabilities are recognised on the statement of 
financial position. Deferred tax assets, including 
those arising from unrecouped tax losses, capital 
losses and temporary differences, are recognised 
only where it is considered more likely than not 
that they will be recovered, which is dependent on 
the generation of sufficient future taxable profits. 

Judgements are also required about the application 
of income tax legislation. These judgements and 
assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, 
hence there is a possibility that changes in 
circumstances will alter expectations, which 
may impact the amount of deferred tax assets 
and deferred tax liabilities recognised on the 
statement of financial position and the amount of 
other tax losses and temporary differences not yet 
recognised. In such circumstances, some or all of the 
carrying amounts of recognised deferred tax assets 
and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in 
a corresponding credit or charge to the consolidated 
statement of comprehensive income.

Operating segments

The  Group  has  identified  its  operating  segments  based  on  the  internal  reports  that  are  reviewed  and  used 
by  the  Board  of  Directors  (chief  operating  decision  makers)  in  assessing  performance  and  determining  the 
allocation of resources. The Group is managed primarily on the basis of product category as the Group’s risks 
and returns are affected predominantly by differences in the products and services produced. The Group also 
monitors the performance of the business on a geographical basis.

The operating businesses are organised and managed separately according to the nature of the products and 
services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and 
serves different markets.

The Technegas™ segment is a supplier of diagnostic equipment and consumables used by physicians in the 
detection of pulmonary embolism and a distributor of products to the diagnostic imaging sector.

The Molecular Imaging segment will produce radiopharmaceuticals to be used by physicians in the detection 
of cancer, neurological disorders and cardiac disease.

Transfer prices between business segments are set on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions 
with third parties. Segment revenue, segment expense and segment result include transfers between business 
segments. Those transfers are eliminated on consolidation.

Business segments
The  tables  under  the  heading  business  segments  present  revenue  and  profit  information  and  certain  asset 
and liability information regarding business segments for the years ended 31 December 2023 and 31 December 
2022.

Geographical segments
The  tables  under  the  heading  geographical  segment  present  revenue  and  asset  information  regarding

Fair Value Measurement
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires the 
disclosure of fair value information by level of the 
fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value 
measurements into one of three possible levels 
based on the lowest level that an input that is 
significant to the measurement can be categorised 
into, as follows:

 — Level 1: Measurements based on quoted prices 
in active markets for identical assets that the 
entity can access at the measurement date.
 — Level 2: Measurements based on inputs other 
than the quoted prices included in Level 1, but 
that are observable for the asset, either directly 
or indirectly.

 — Level 3: Measurements based on unobservable 

inputs for the asset or liability.

Cyclopharm’s management considers that the 
inputs used for the fair value measurement are 
Level 2 inputs.

Valuation techniques
AASB 13 requires the valuation technique used to 
be consistent with one of the following valuation 
approaches:

 — Market approach: techniques that use prices 
and other information generated by market 
transactions for identical or similar assets.

 — Income approach: techniques that convert future 
cash flows or income and expenses into a single 
discounted present value.

 — Cost approach: techniques that reflect the current 
replacement cost of an asset at its current service 
capacity.

The Cyclopharm Board decided to cease commercial 
production at its Cyclotron facility at the end 
of April 2014 due to the impact on the Group’s 
profits of the government-owned competition. 
In making that decision, the Board valued the 
Cyclotron facility, comprised of buildings, leasehold 
improvements and plant and equipment at a 
fair value of nil, using the market approach and 
income approach techniques. The market technique 
predominantly used recent observable market data 
for similar new equipment in Australia, adjusted 
for loss in value caused by physical deterioration, 
functional obsolescence, economic obsolescence 
and the industry specific aspects affecting this 
highly specialised asset i.e. the government-owned 

competition which had rendered further 
participation in the molecular imaging industry 
uneconomic and its future use uncertain. The same 
industry specific factors were applied to the income 
approach technique. Both techniques resulted in a 
fair value of nil being recognised for the Cyclotron 
facility as at 31 December 2014. In 2023, the 
Cyclotron facility was operationally restored, and 
whilst regulatory approval is still pending, the 
Cyclopharm Board in recognition of the financial 
contributions derived from the Collaboration 
Agreement has concluded based on their latest 
valuation using the income approach, that the fair 
value of the Cyclotron be written back from nil to 
$3,160,301 as at 31 December 2023.

Inputs used in the market approach technique to 
measure Level 2 fair values were:

 — Current replacement cost of the property being 

appraised less the loss in value caused by physical 
deterioration, functional obsolescence and 
economic obsolescence, and industry specific 
factors set out above.

 — Historical cost and relevant market data and 

industry expertise.

 — Sales comparison for assets where available.

The assessments of the physical condition, 
functional obsolescence and economic obsolescence 
are considered Level 3 inputs.

Plant and equipment

Notes

(a)

a)   The share of the associate’s profit not recognised during the year was $23,766 (2022: loss of $5,745) and the 
cumulative share of the associate’s loss not recognised as at 31 December 2023 was $2,714,697 (31 December 
2022: $2,738,463). 
 The  share  of  profit  of  associate  not  recognised  as  at  31  December  2023  is  extracted  from  the  unaudited 
financial report of the associate, and it may be revised when that financial report has been audited.
 The fair value of the Group’s investment in Macquarie Medical Imaging Pty Ltd was $nil (2022: $nil). It is 
anticipated that MMI will be de-registered upon the finalisation of its accounts payable and receivables. 

Contingent liabilities
b)   In  December  2019,  a  business  venture  collaboration  agreement  combined  CycloPet  Pty  Ltd  and  Pettech 
Solutions  Limited’s  cyclotron  facilities  under  a  single  operating  enterprise  known  as  Cyclotek  NSW  Pty 
Limited  (Cyclotek  NSW).  Cyclopharm  and  Cyclotek  NSW  have  entered  into  a  sub-lease  agreement  as 
tenants  in  common  whereby  Cyclotek  NSW  is  solely  responsible  for  the  tenant’s  obligations  except  for 
make good obligations until such time as it exercises the right to transfer its interest as tenant in common 
to  Cyclopharm.  Being  a  tenant  in  common,  Cyclopharm’s  contingent  liabilities  as  at  31  December  2023 
amounts to $3,206,657 (2022: $3,366,657) if Cyclotek NSW is unable to fulfil its obligations as tenant. The 
amount comprises payments under a sub-lease agreement commencing 1 January 2020 until the expiry of

*		 Goodwill	on	consolidation	arising	upon	the	acquisition	of	Cyclomedica	Benelux	bvba	on	1	October	2017,	Cyclomedica	Nordic	AB	on	1	May	2018	and	

Dupharma ApS	on	1	April	2023.

The following assumptions are noted in respect of the following intangible assets: (a) Goodwill, (b) Technegas™ 
Development and (c) Ultralute.

The  recoverable  amount  of  intangible  assets  have  been  assessed  using  a  discounted  cash  flow  methodology 
forecasting five years of pre-tax cash flows.

The following describes each key assumption on which management has based its value in use calculations:

a)   Five-year  pre-tax  cash  flow  projections,  based  upon  management  approved  budgets  and  growth  rates 
covering a one year period, with the subsequent periods based upon management expectations of growth 
excluding  the  impact  of  possible  future  acquisitions,  business  improvement  capital  expenditure  and 
restructuring, together with a terminal value.

b)   The pre-tax discount rates used were between 9.01% to 25% (2022: between 5.77% to 25%). The discount 
rates reflect management’s estimate of the time value of money and the Group’s adjusted weighted average 
cost  of  capital  to  reflect  the  current  market  risk–free  rate  but  also  price  for  the  uncertainty  inherent  in 
the assets.
 Management  believes  the  projected  3%  (2022:  3%)  revenue  growth  rate  for  existing  markets  is  prudent 
and justified. 

c) 

No changes in estimations were made by management compared to prior years. The key assumptions used for 
assessing the carrying value of intangible assets reflects the risk estimates of the business and respective assets.

There were no other key assumptions for Goodwill, Technegas™ Development costs and Ultralute costs.

The Directors have concluded that the recoverable amount of Goodwill, Technegas™ Development costs, and 
Ultralute costs exceed their carrying values. Based on the above, no impairment charge was recognised.

Sensitivity
As disclosed in note 2(aa), the Directors have made judgements and estimates in respect of impairment. Should 
these judgements and estimates not occur the resulting carrying amounts may change.

Goodwill
All other assumptions remaining constant, the sensitivity in the value of goodwill is that revenue would need 
to decrease by more than 4% (2022: by more than 7%). 

Management believes that other reasonable changes in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount 
of Goodwill is calculated would not cause the carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

Technegas™ development and Ultralute development costs
Sensitivity  analysis  has  been  performed  by  adjusting  underlying  assumptions  by  up  to  10%.  The  analysis 
indicated that headroom exists in the cash flow projections to support the carrying value of the intangible assets.

When managing capital, management’s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well 
as to maintain optimal returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management also aims to 
maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.

Management constantly assesses the capital structure to take advantage of favourable costs of capital and/or 
high returns on assets. As the market is continually changing, management may issue dividends to shareholders, 
issue new shares, increase the entity’s short or long term borrowings or sell assets to reduce borrowings.

As at 31 December 2023, the Group has no interest bearing loans and borrowings.

Financial risk management objectives

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and short-term deposits. The 
Group  manages  its  exposure  to  key  financial  risks,  including  interest  rate  and  currency  risk  in  accordance 
with the Group’s financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of the 
Group’s financial targets while protecting future financial security.

The  Group  uses  different  methods  to  measure  and  manage  different  types  of  risks  to  which  it  is  exposed. 
These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate, foreign exchange risk and assessments of market 
forecasts for interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity prices. Ageing analysis and monitoring of specified 
credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk, liquidity risk is monitored through the development 
of future rolling cash flow forecasts.

The Board review and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below.

Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Audit and Risk Committee 
under  the  authority  from  the  Board.  The  Board  reviews  and  agrees  policies  for  managing  each  of  the  risks 
identified below, including for interest rate risk, credit allowances and cash flow forecast projections. It is, and 
has been throughout the year under review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall 
be undertaken. 

Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the 
basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of 
financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2.

Financial risk management objectives (continued)

a)  Interest rate risk
As the Group has moved into a no debt, strong cash position, the main interest rate risk is now in cash assets 
exposure.

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the Statement of 
Financial Position date. 

At 31 December 2023, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held 
constant, pre-tax profit would have been affected as follows:

Judgements of reasonably possible movements:
Loss before income tax
+1.0% (100 basis points)
–0.5% (50 basis points)

The movements in profit/(loss) are due to possible higher or lower interest income from cash balances. 

At balance date, the Group had the following mix of financial assets and liabilities exposed to variable interest 
rate risk:

Financial risk management objectives (continued)

b)  Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade 
and other receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counter party, 
with  a  maximum  exposure  equal  to  the  carrying  amount  of  these  instruments.  Exposure  at  balance  date  is 
addressed in each applicable note. 

The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.

The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties and as such collateral is not requested nor 
is it the Group’s policy to scrutinise the counterparty’s trade and other receivables. It is the Group’s policy that 
all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures such as reviewing 
their industry reputation, financial position and credit rating. In addition, receivable balances are monitored 
on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is constantly managed.

There are no significant unprovided concentrations of credit risk within the Group.

c)  Liquidity risk
The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of 
bank overdrafts and bank loans. The Group has no borrowings as at 31 December 2023.

Refer to the table above in Note 20(a) Interest Rate Risk, which reflects all contractually fixed pay-offs for 
settlement of financial liabilities and collection of financial assets. Trade payables and other financial liabilities 
generally originate from the financing of assets used in our ongoing operations such as investments in working 
capital e.g. inventories and trade receivables and investment in property, plant and equipment. These assets 
are considered in the Group’s overall liquidity risk. To monitor existing financial assets and liabilities as well 
as to enable an effective controlling of future risks, the Board and management monitor the Group’s expected 
settlement of financial assets and liabilities on an ongoing basis.

The Group monitors the rolling forecast of liquidity reserves based on expected cash flow.

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements20. 

Financial risk management objectives (continued)

e)  Foreign currency risk
As a result of significant investment operations in Europe, the Group’s Statement of Financial Position can be 
affected significantly by movements in the EURO/A$ exchange rates. The Group does not hedge this exposure 
but mitigates this risk by maintaining bank accounts in Australia denominated in USD.

The  Group  also  has  transactional  currency  exposures.  Such  exposure  arises  from  sales  or  purchases  by  an 
operating unit in currencies other than the unit’s functional currency. Approximately 67% (2022: 66%) of the 
Group’s sales are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operating unit making 
the sale, whilst approximately 52% (2022: 50%) of costs are denominated in the unit’s functional currency.

At  31  December  2023,  the  Group  had  the  following  financial  instrument  exposure  to  foreign  currency 
fluctuations:

financial instruments.

Financial risk management objectives (continued)

e)  Foreign currency risk (continued)

Foreign currency sensitivity
Currency  risk  is  measured  using  sensitivity  analysis.  A  portion  of  Cyclopharm’s  receivables  and  payables 
are  exposed  to  movements  in  the  values  of  those  currencies  relative  to  the  Australian  dollar.  Cyclopharm 
management have determined that it is not cost effective to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations.

Cyclopharm is most exposed to European Euro (Euro), Canadian Dollar (CAD), US Dollar (USD), Swedish Kroner 
(SEK) and Great British Pound (GBP) movements. The following table details Cyclopharm’s sensitivity to a 10% 
change in the Australian dollar against those respective currencies with all other variables held constant as at 
reporting date for unhedged foreign exposure risk. A positive number indicates an increase in net profit/equity.

A sensitivity has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of exchange rates and 
the volatility observed on a historic basis and market expectation for future movement.

The share-based payment reserve at 31 December 2023 was $3,765,955 (2022: $3,241,763). 

b)  Share-based payment other than implied options
No share-based payments other than implied options were made during the year.

c)  Type of share based payment plans
The share-based payment plan is described below. An updated Plan was approved by members at the Annual 
General Meetings held on 29 May 2018 and 4 May 2021.

Shares
Long Term Incentive Plan (“Plan”) Shares (“Shares”) are granted to certain Directors and certain employees.

In  valuing  transactions  settled  by  way  of  issue  of  shares,  performance  conditions  and  market  conditions 
linked to the price of the shares of Cyclopharm Limited are taken into account. All shares issued have market 
performance conditions so as to align shareholder return and reward for the Company’s selected management 
and staff (“Participants”).

The Shares vest upon the satisfaction of certain performance conditions (“Hurdles”) within the term (“Term”) 
specified  for  Participants  in  the  Plan.  The  Board  has  residual  discretion  to  accelerate  vesting  (i.e.  reduce  or 
waive the Hurdles) and exercise of Shares in the event of a takeover or merger or any other circumstance in 
accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Shares in relation to which Hurdles have not been satisfied (i.e. that do not vest) will lapse and will not be able 
to be exercised, except in the circumstances described below. However, the Board may at any time amend any 
rules  governing  the  operation  of  the  Plan  or  waive  or  modify  the  application  of  the  rules  in  relation  to  any 
Participant. Shares which have not vested will lapse where a Participant ceases employment with Cyclopharm 
other  than  on  retirement,  redundancy,  death  or  total  and  permanent  disablement  or  unless  as  otherwise 
determined by the Board in its absolute discretion.

Where  a  Participant  has  ceased  employment  with  Cyclopharm  as  a  result  of  resignation,  retirement, 
redundancy, death or total and permanent disablement prior to the end of a performance period, only shares 
that have vested may be retained by the Participant on a pro-rata basis. If a Participant ceases employment 
for any reasons mentioned above prior to the first anniversary of the grant date, the Participant forfeits all 
entitlement to Shares.

LTIP Shares issued
At  the  Annual  General  Meeting  held  on  8  May  2007,  Shareholders  approved  the  Company’s  Plan  with  an 
updated Plan approved by Shareholders on 29 May 2018 and 4 May 2021. 

Implied Options
AASB 2 Share Based Payments requires that the benefit to an employee arising from an employee share scheme 
such as the Cyclopharm Long Term Incentive Plan be treated as an expense over the vesting period. All of the 
issues of Plan shares have been treated as Plan Share Options (“Implied Options”) in accordance with AASB 2. 
The employee benefit is deemed to be the Implied Option arising from the Plan. Consequently, the value of the 
discount which has been determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model will be charged to the Statement 
of Comprehensive Income and credited to the Employee Equity Benefits Reserve over the vesting period.

70

Cyclopharm Limited | annual report 2023Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements26. 

Share based payment plans (continued)

Where employee shares are issued under a non-recourse loan payment plan, the loan assets and the increments 
to Contributed Equity are not recognised at grant date but rather the increments to Contributed Equity are 
recognised when the share loans are settled by the relevant employees.

d)  Summary of Options and Implied Options granted
The following table summarises the movements in Options and Implied Options during the current year:

Balance at the beginning of the year 
Granted during the year 
Vested but unexercised during the year

Lapsed during the year

deemed  price  of  $2.18  per  share  and  future  consideration  of  $29,305  (DKK  147,500)  payable  on  the  post 
completion date. The shares are subject to voluntary escrow until 31 March 2025 and have no dividend or 
voting rights until 1 April 2025. 

From the date of acquisition to the end of the financial year, Dupharma contributed revenue of $444,675 
and a net loss after tax of $213,330 to the continuing operations of the Group. 

  The goodwill recognised is primarily attributed to synergies available to the new group which will enhance 
shareholder  value  through  capturing  agency  commissions  and  providing  control  over  distribution  and 
pricing.  The  goodwill  is  not  deductible  for  income  tax  purposes.  Transaction  costs  of  $54,220  have  been 
expensed and are included in Administration expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and are 
part of operating cash flows in the statement of cash flows.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Cyclopharm Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Cyclopharm Limited (the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group)), 
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023, the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity 
and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, 
including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration. 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 
2001, including: 

i)  giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group’s  financial  position  as  at  31  December  2023  and  of  its 

financial performance for the year then ended; and 

ii)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion  

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those 
standards are further described in the ‘auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report’ section 
of  our  report.  We  are  independent  of  the  Group  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  the 
ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics 
for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit 
of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with 
the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given 
to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this 
auditor’s report. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 
opinion. 

Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate 
opinion on these matters.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Capitalised Development Costs for Ultralute 
($3,060,262) 
Refer to note 14 

Included in the Group’s intangible assets are 
capitalised development costs $3,060,262 in 
respect of the Ultralute product. Capitalised 
Ultralute development costs are considered to be 
a key audit matter due to the quantum of the 
asset; the degree of management judgement and 
assumptions applied in measuring the carrying 
value of the asset; and assessing the presence of 
impairment of a development phase asset.  

The most significant and sensitive judgments 
incorporated into the assessment for impairment 
of capitalised development costs include 
projections of cash flows, discount rates applied 
and assumptions regarding the Group’s ability to 
exploit new markets. 

Other considerations and judgments include 
whether the capitalised costs qualify for 
capitalisation as development phase costs in 
accordance with AASB 138 Intangible Assets . 
This includes an understanding of the Group’s 
process for recording and measuring internally 
developed assets and the Group's ability to 
complete the development and demonstrate its 
ability to generate future cash flows from that 
asset. 

Inventory Valuation and existence 
($10,155,852) 
Refer to note 10 

The Group holds a significant amount of inventory 
which are complex medical machines with 
significant useful lives. Inventory may be held for 
long periods of time before sale making it 
vulnerable to obsolescence or theft. Further, 
deterioration in global economic conditions can 
potentially lead to this inventory being sold at 
reduced prices or lead to a reduction in revenue. 
The inventory is considered to be a key audit 
matter due to the significant increase of inventory 
at year end in anticipation of entering new 
markets. As a result, there is a risk that inventory 
is carried in excess of its net realisable value. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

  We assessed the project against the 

requirements for capitalisation contained in 
AASB 138 Intangible Assets. 

  We tested material expenditure capitalised 
during the year and checked that they were 
appropriately allocated to the development 
asset. 

  We assessed management’s determination of 
the Group’s cash generating units based on 
our understanding of the nature of the 
Group’s business and how earnings streams 
are monitored and reported. 

  We tested the Group’s assumptions and 

estimates used to determine the recoverable 
value of its assets, including those relating to 
forecast revenue, cost, capital expenditure, 
and discount rates by corroborating the key 
market related assumptions to external data 
and by reference to our understanding of the 
business. 

  We performed sensitivity analysis in two 

main areas to assess whether the carrying 
value of the capitalised development costs 
exceeded its recoverable amount. These 
were the discount rate and growth 
assumptions. 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

  We performed stocktake procedures on a 

sample of inventory items to ascertain their 
existence at balance date. 

  We agreed a sample of inventory items to 

purchase invoices to test that costs assigned 
to inventories are appropriate. 

  We agreed a sample of raw materials 

through to the assembled finished good to 
determine whether these were assembled in 
accordance with the underlying 
subassemblies and related bill of materials. 

  We obtained evidence that inventory did not 

exceed its net realisable value by:

Independent Auditor’s Report

Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

-  Checking a sample of inventory items to 

subsequent selling prices; 

-  Reviewing aged inventory report for any 

slow moving items; and 

-  Considering management’s plans for 

entering new markets. 

Other information 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in 
Cyclopharm Limited’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2023, but does not include the financial 
report  and  the  auditor’s  report  thereon.  Our  opinion  on  the  financial  report  does  not  cover  the  other 
information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit 
of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether 
the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the 
audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other 
information we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for 
such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report 
that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue 
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern 
basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have 
no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s responsibility for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our  opinion.  Reasonable  assurance  is  a  high  level  of  assurance,  but  is  not  a  guarantee  that  an  audit 
conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement 
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in 
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on 
the basis of this financial report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at The Australian 
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: 
www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf. This description forms part of our auditor’s
