3 July 2015. As such, 75,000,040 Class B Performance Shares converted to 75,000,040 ordinary shares.
Overview of Group strategy
The acquisition of Dimerix Biosciences Limited into the group has resulted in the significant shift of
corporate focus to the development of Dimerix’s DMX-200 clinical asset for the treatment of Chronic
Kidney Disease, and the broader commercialisation of Dimerix’s underlying drug discovery technology.
The Group intends to establish proof of concept for DMX-200 in treating forms of chronic kidney
disease in a human trial to support partnering of the asset with a pharmaceutical company within a 2-3
year time frame. In parallel, Dimerix will leverage its drug discovery technology to build a pipeline of
additional pre-clinical and clinical assets with the intention of becoming a company with multiple, high
potential value, commercial opportunities.
The DMX-200 Program
DMX-200 combines two existing drugs, irbesartan and propagermanium. Irbesartan is an off-patent
angiotensin II type I receptor blocker indicated for the treatment of hypertension and nephropathy in
Type II diabetic patients. Propagermanium (PPG) is a chemokine receptor (CCR2) blocker used for its
anti-inflammatory properties. DMX-200 has been shown to improve the outcome of chronic kidney
disease by reducing leakage of protein into the urine (proteinuria) by more than 50 per cent in animal
models.
During the year, the Group initiated the DMX-200 trial at three public hospitals and one private
nephology practice in Melbourne, Australia.
The DMX-200 trial is a single arm, open label trial in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (with
proteinuria). The primary end points are the incidence and severity of adverse events and the clinically
significant changes in the safety profile of participants. The secondary end points are obtained from
statistical analysis of biomarker data at each time point including change from baseline, and the
proportion of responders defined as those participants achieving normalisation of proteinuria
6 |
Dimerix Limited
(proteinuria within normal limits) or those participants achieving a 50% reduction in proteinuria. The
trial has two parts Part A is a dose escalation trial recruiting up to 30 patients. All patients recruited to
the trial will be on stable irbesartan therapy, and will be treated with propagermanium dosed orally
three times per day. Part B is an expansion study, in which up to 30 patients are recruited on the best
dose identified from Part A.
The Group expects to carry out an interim analysis during Part A of the study to review the safety of the
therapy and observe any biomarker changes. It is expected interim data will be available during 2016.
The Group expects to review the design of Part B in consultation with the US Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and in light of all data available to the Group, prior to commencement of Part B.
These discussions will be in line with the Group’s strategy of pursuing registration for an orphan
indication in which the sufferers exhibit chronic kidney disease.
The first patient in the DMX-200 trial was dosed in September 2015, with two patients on trial at the
end of the half year. The trial sites are continuing to screen patients for potential enrolment in the
study. The Group is actively monitoring recruitment, and may expand the study into other jurisdictions
to meet recruitment targets and regulatory goals.
In December 2015, Dimerix announced that it had received Orphan Designation from the US Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) for propagermanium and irbesartan, the constituent parts of DMX-200, for
the treatment of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).
On the 29th June 2016, Dimerix attended a pre Investigational New Drug meeting with the US FDA to
discuss the development of DMX-200 for the treatment of FSGS.

and cash equivalents, net assets, contributed equity and accumulated losses was largely the result of the
reverse acquisition (refer to note 23 for more information).
The directors believe the Group is in a strong and stable financial position to expand and grow its current
operations.
Significant changes in state of affairs
During the year, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd a public
unlisted clinical stage drug discovery and development company, based in Melbourne. There were
significant Board changes during the year under review.
Events after the reporting period
There has not been any matter or circumstance that has arisen subsequent to the end of the financial
year that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Group, the results
of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.

Dimerix Limited
Future developments, prospects and business strategies
Part A of the current Phase II open label trial aims to recruit up to 30 patients at four sites across
Melbourne with the aim of demonstrating safety and reduction of proteinuria in patients with CKD.
Proteinuria is common in CKD patients and is a strong independent risk factor for disease progression.
Reducing proteinuria reduces the risk of CKD progression and its consequences of progressive loss of
renal function leading to renal failure, and the development and progression of cardiovascular disease.
Patients in the study are already being prescribed irbesartan and, as part of the trial protocol,
commence on a dose of 30mg of propagermanium per day. The Investigators review the patients at
four week intervals, and escalate the patients’ dose to 60, 90, 150 and 240mg per day over each four
week period. The supply of propagermanium to patients following their participation in the trial can be
approved under the Australian TGA’s Special Access Scheme. The first two patients to complete Part A
of the DMX-200 Phase II trial are continuing to access propagermanium under this Special Access
Scheme. Dimerix aims to provide an interim data analysis based on 10-15 patients in the trial before
the end of the third quarter of 2016.
Environmental issues
The Group’s operations are not subject to significant environmental regulation under the Australian
Commonwealth or State Law.

Dimerix Limited
Remuneration policy
The board of directors of the Group is currently responsible for determining and reviewing
compensation arrangements for key management personnel. The Group does not currently operate a
Remuneration Committee. The remuneration policy, which is set out below, is designed to promote
superior performance and long-term commitment to the Group.
Non-executive director remuneration
Non-executive directors are remunerated by way of fees, in the form of cash, non-cash benefits,
superannuation contributions or salary sacrifice into equity and do not normally participate in schemes
designed for the remuneration of executives.
Shareholders approval must be obtained in relation to the overall limit set for the non-executive
directors’ fees. The maximum aggregate remuneration approved by shareholders for non-executive
directors is $250,000 per annum. The directors set the individual non-executive director fees within the
limit approved by shareholders. Non-executive directors are not provided with retirement benefits.
Executive director remuneration
Executive directors receive a base remuneration which is at market rates, and may be entitled to
performance based remuneration, which is determined on an annual basis. Overall remuneration
policies are subject to the discretion of the board and can be changed to reflect competitive and
business conditions where it is in the interests of the Group and shareholders to do so. Executive
remuneration and other terms of employment are reviewed annually by the board having regard to the
performance, relevant comparative information and expert advice.
The board’s remuneration policy reflects its obligation to align executive remuneration with
shareholders’ interests and to retain appropriately qualified executive talent for the benefit of the
Group. The main principles are:
(a) remuneration reflects the competitive market in which the Group operates;
(b) individual remuneration should be linked to performance criteria if appropriate; and
(c) executives should be rewarded for both financial and non-financial performance.
The total remuneration of executives consists of the following:
(a) salary – executives receive a fixed sum payable monthly in cash plus superannuation at 9.5% of
salary;
(b) cash at risk component – executives may participate in share and option schemes generally made in
accordance with thresholds set in plans approved by shareholders if deemed appropriate.
However, the board considers it appropriate to issue shares and options to executives outside of
approved schemes in exceptional circumstances;
(c) other benefits – executives may, if deemed appropriate by the board, be provided with a fully
expensed mobile phone and other forms of remuneration; and
(d) performance bonus.
The board has not formally engaged the services of a remuneration consultant to provide
recommendations when setting the remuneration received by directors or other key management
personnel during the financial year.
Relationship between the remuneration policy and Group performance
The board considers that at this time, evaluation of the Group’s financial performance using generally
accepted measures such as profitability, total shareholder return or per Group comparison are not
relevant as the Group is at an early stages of the DMX-200 Phase II trial which is continuing as outlined
in the directors’ report.

AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting
periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018).
When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements
applicable to revenue with a single, principles-based model. Except for a limited
number of exceptions, including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will
apply to all contracts with customers as well as non-monetary exchanges between
entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers and potential
customers.
The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict
the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects
24 |
Dimerix Limited
the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the
goods or services. To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-
step process:
- identify the contract(s) with a customer;
- identify the performance obligations in the contract(s);
- determine the transaction price;
- allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the
contract(s); and
- recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied.
This Standard will require retrospective restatement, as well as enhanced
disclosures regarding revenue.
The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 will not have a material
impact on the Group’s revenue recognition and disclosures.
AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1
January 2019).
AASB 16 removes the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance
leases for the lessee effectively treating all leases as finance leases. Short term
leases (less than 12 months) and leases of a low value are exempt from the lease
accounting requirements. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice.
Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 may have an
impact on the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to
provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.
AASB 2014-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Accounting for
Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations [AASB 1 & AASB 11]
AASB 2014-3 amends AASB 11 Joint Arrangements to provide guidance on the
accounting for acquisitions of interests in joint operations in which the activity
constitutes a business. The amendments require:
(a) the acquirer of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity constitutes
a business, as defined in AASB 3 Business Combinations, to apply all of the
principles on business combinations accounting in AASB 3 and other Australian
Accounting Standards except for those principles that conflict with the guidance in
AASB 11
(b) the acquirer to disclose the information required by AASB 3 and other
Australian Accounting Standards for business combinations
This Standard also makes an editorial correction to AASB 11.
AASB 2014-9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Equity Method in
Separate Financial Statements (AASB 2014-9 applies to annual reporting periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Early adoption permitted).
AASB 2014-9 amends AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements, and
consequentially amends AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting
Standards and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, to allow
entities to use the equity method of accounting for investments in subsidiaries,
joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. AASB 2014-9
also makes editorial corrections to AASB 127.

Significant accounting policies
Statement of compliance
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been
in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and
prepared
Interpretations and comply with other requirements of the law.
The financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group. For the purposes of
preparing the financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity.
Accounting Standards include Australian Accounting Standards. Compliance with Australian
Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Group comply
with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The financial statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 24 August 2016.
3.2
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain
financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values at the end of each
reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for
goods and services. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of
whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In
estimating the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group takes into account the
characteristics of the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement
and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except
for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of AASB 2, leasing transactions
that are within the scope of AASB 117 and measurements that have some similarities to fair
value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in AASB 2 or value in use in AASB 136.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into
Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which inputs to the fair value measurements are
observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety,
which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Dimerix Limited
Reverse acquisition
Dimerix Limited acquired Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd on 3 July 2015. From a legal and taxation
perspective Dimerix Limited is considered the acquiring entity. However, the acquisition has
the features of a reverse acquisition as described in the Australian Accounting Standard AASB3
“Business Combinations” (AASB 3) notwithstanding Dimerix Limited being the legal parent of
the Group. The transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition from a
consolidated perspective, where Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd is the accounting acquirer and
Dimerix Limited is the legal acquirer. The financial report includes the consolidated financial
statements of the Group for the period 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016 and represents a
continuation of Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd financial statements with exception of the capital
structure. The amount recognised as equity instruments in these consolidated statements
represents the issued equity of Dimerix Limited adjusted to reflect the equity issued by
Dimerix Limited on acquisition. Refer to note 16 on issued capital and note 23 on the
accounting for the acquisition. The comparable figures are those of Dimerix Bioscience Pty
Ltd.
Under the reverse acquisition principles, the consideration provided by Dimerix Bioscience Pty
Ltd was determined to be $6,748,901, which is the deemed fair value of the 573,640,008
shares owned by the former Sun Biomedical Limited shareholders at the completion of the
acquisition and the performance shares issued to Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd shareholders as
consideration. The net assets of Dimerix Ltd were recorded at fair value at the completion of
the acquisition and no adjustments were required to the historical book values.
The excess of the deemed fair value of the shares owned by the Dimerix Limited (formerly Sun
Biomedical Limited) shareholders and the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Dimerix
Limited immediately prior to the completion of the merger is accounted for under “AASB 2
“Share–based Payment” and resulted in the recognition of $3,971,811 being recorded as
“Corporate Restructure Expense”. The net assets of Dimerix Limited were recorded at fair
value at completion of the merger. No adjustments were required to the historical values.
3.3
Business combinations
Acquisitions of business are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration
transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum
of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred by the Company, liabilities incurred by
the Company to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity instruments issued by the
Company in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in
profit or loss as incurred.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are
recognised at their fair value, except that:
deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit
arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with AASB 112 ‘Income Taxes’
and AASB 119 ‘Employee Benefits’ respectively.
liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the
acquiree or share-based payment arrangements of the Company entered into to replace
share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with
AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ at the acquisition date; and
assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5
‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ are measured in
accordance with that Standard.
27 |
Dimerix Limited
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of
any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously
held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the
identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the
acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds
the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the
acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree (if any),
the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
Where the consideration transferred by the Company in a business combination includes
assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent
consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Changes in the fair value of the
contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted
retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period
adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the
‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts
and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting for
changes in the fair value of contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement
period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent
consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and
its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is
classified as an asset or liability is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance
with AASB 139, or AASB 137 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’, as
appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting
period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the
items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during
the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to
reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the
acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date.
3.4
Going concern basis
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which contemplates
the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of
liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the year ended 30 June 2016 the Group incurred a loss after tax of $5,254,475 (2015:
$525,073) and a net cash outflow from operations of $1,379,129 (2015: $558,550). At
30 June 2016, the Group had current assets of $2,523,091 (2015: $694,680), current liabilities
of $282,725 (2015: $40,743) and current cash holding was $2,018,716. The Group does not
have any forthcoming material expenditure commitments in the relevant period.
The directors have reviewed the business outlook and cash flow forecasts and are of the
opinion that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate as they believe the
Group will continue to raise further funds and meet its expenditure commitments as required.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its
assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts
different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that may be
necessary should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern.

3.5
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of
the acquisition of the business (see 3.3 above) less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For
the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-
generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the
synergies of the combination.
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually,
or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the
impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to
the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each
asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An
impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is
included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
3.6
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is
reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic
benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
Research and Development Incentive
These are accounted on an accrual basis once it is probable that it will be received.
3.7
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of
qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period to get ready for
their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets
are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their
expenditure on qualifying assets
is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for
capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are
incurred.
3.8
Government grants
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will
comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in
which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to
compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Group
should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as deferred
revenue in the statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic
and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.
29 |
Dimerix Limited
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already
incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future
related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.
3.9
Employee benefits
Short-term and long-term employee benefits
A liability is recognised for benefits accrued to employees in respect of wages and salaries and
annual leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being
measured reliably.
Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at their
nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.
Liabilities recognised in respect of long term employee benefits are measured as the present
value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services
provided by employees up to reporting date.
3.10
Share-based payments arrangements
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are
measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. Details regarding the
determination of the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in note
19.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is
expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of
equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the
end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity
instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is
recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate,
with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees are
measured at the fair value of the goods or services received, except where that fair value
cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity
instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty
renders the service.
For cash-settled share-based payments, a liability is recognised for the goods or services
acquired, measured initially at the fair value of the liability. At the end of each reporting
period until the liability is settled, and at the date of settlement, the fair value of the liability is
remeasured, with any changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss for the year.

Dimerix Limited
3.11
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
3.11.1
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from
profit before tax as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years
and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s current tax is calculated using the
tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
3.11.2
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in
the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all
taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible
temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available
against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets
and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition
(other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects
neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not
recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with
investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the
Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising
from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are
only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits
against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to
reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be
available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in
the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax
laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The
measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would
follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to
recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off
current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by
the same authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net
basis.
3.11.3
Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that
are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current
and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity,
respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a
31 |
Dimerix Limited
business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business
combination.
3.12
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets (other than
freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful
lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and
depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any
changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
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 the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is
determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the
asset and is recognised in profit and loss.
3.13
Intangible assets
3.13.1
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill
are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their
cost).
Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are
reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the
same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.
3.13.2
Derecognition of intangible assets
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are
expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible
asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount
of the asset are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
3.14
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible
and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have
suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset
is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not
possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a
reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also
allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest
group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be
identified.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are
tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset
may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. In
assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
32 |
Dimerix Limited
money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not
been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its
carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the
relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as
a revaluation decrease
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-
generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the
increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless
the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the
impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
3.15
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a
result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation,
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to
settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks
and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash
flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of
those cash flows (where the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be
recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that
reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
3.16
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to
the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial
liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss)
are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as
appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of
financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised
immediately in profit or loss.
3.16.1
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair
value through profit or loss’ (FVTPL), ‘held-to maturity’ investments, ‘available-for-sale’ (AFS)
financial assets and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and
purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular
way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date
basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require
delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the
marketplace.
33 |
Dimerix Limited
3.16.1.1 Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it
is designated as at FVTPL.
A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:
it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or
on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the
Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.
A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL
upon initial recognition if:
such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition
inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both,
which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance
with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy and information
about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and AASB 139
‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ permits the entire combined
contract to be designated as at FVTPL.
Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-
measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss
incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘other
gains and losses’ line item.
3.16.1.2 Loans and receivables
Trade receivables, loans and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that
are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and
receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any
impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for
short-term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.
3.16.1.3
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the
end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is
objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial
recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been
affected.
For financial assets that are carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss
recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of
estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
For financial asset that are carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as
the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated
future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset.
Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all
financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced
through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible,
34 |
Dimerix Limited
it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously
written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the
allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.
When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously
recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the
impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring
after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed
through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the
impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the
impairment not been recognised
In respect of AFS securities, impairment losses previously recognised in profit or loss are not
reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is
income and accumulated under the heading of
recognised
investments revaluation reserve.
in other comprehensive
3.16.1.4 Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from
the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and
rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Group neither transfers nor retains
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred
asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for
amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognise the financial asset
and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying
amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or
loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is
recognised in profit or loss.
On derecognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety (e.g. when the Group retains an
option to repurchase part of a transferred asset), the Group allocates the previous carrying
amount of the financial asset between the part it continues to recognise under continuing
involvement, and the part it no longer recognises on the basis of the relative fair values of
those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the carrying amount allocated
to the part that is no longer recognised and the sum of the consideration received for the part
no longer recognised and any cumulative gain or loss allocated to it that had been recognised
in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss. A cumulative gain or loss that
had been recognised in other comprehensive income is allocated between the part that
continues to be recognised and the part that is no longer recognised on the basis of the
relative fair values of those parts.
3.16.2
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
3.16.2.1 Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.
3.16.2.2 Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an
entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a group of entity are
35 |
Dimerix Limited
recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
3.16.2.3 Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities ‘at FVTPL’ or ‘other financial
liabilities’.
3.16.2.4 Financial liabilities at FVTPL
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for
trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.
A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:
it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or
on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the
Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument
A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may be designated as at
FVTPL upon initial recognition if:
such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition
inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
the financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both,
which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance
with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information
about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and AASB 139
‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ permits the entire combined
contract to be designated as at FVTPL.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-
measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss
incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the ‘other gains and
losses’ line item.
3.16.2.5 Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities, including borrowings and trade and other payables, are initially
measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial
liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate
is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of
the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on
initial recognition.
3.16.2.6 Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are
discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the
financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit
or loss.
36 |
Dimerix Limited
3.17
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax
(GST), except:
i. where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense;
or
ii.
for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as
part of receivables or payables.
Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST component of
cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable
to, the taxation authority is classified within operating cash flows.
3.18
Comparative amounts
When current period balances have been classified differently within current period
disclosures when compared to prior periods, comparative disclosures have been restated to
ensure consistency of presentation between periods.
4
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the
directors of the Group are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other
factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to
accounting estimates are recognised in the period on which the estimate is revised if the
revision affects only that period, or in the period in the revision and future periods if the
revision affects both current and future periods.
In preparing these financial statements, the significant
judgements were made by
management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation
uncertainty have been applied to the Business combination refer to note 23.

Segment information
AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about
components of the Consolidated Entity that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance.
AASB 8 “Operating Segments’” states that similar operating segments can be aggregated to
form one reportable segment. Following the acquisition of Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd the
Group identified two business segments and one geographical segment. The business
37 |
Dimerix Limited
segments are:
the development of occupational drug testing devices and new therapeutic agents in
Australia (Segment 1); and
clinical stage drug discovery and development in Australia (Segment 2).

For the period 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015 the Group’s operating segments did not meet the
prescribed quantitative thresholds and as such did not have to report segments separately. The
Group aggregated all its reporting segments into one reportable operating segment. The
revenue and results of this segment are those of the Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd as a whole and
are set out in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The segment
assets and liabilities are those of Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd at 30 June 2015.

The fair value of the above financial instruments approximates their carrying values.
18.3 Financial risk management objectives
In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of
financial instruments. This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for
managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in
respect of those risks is presented throughout these financial statements.
There have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risks, its
objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them
from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.
The board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management
objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the
authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the
objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function.
The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the
potential impacts of these risks on the Group where such impacts may be material. The board
receives monthly financial reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put
in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the
board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the
Group’s competitiveness and flexibility.
18.4 Market risk
Market risk for the Group arises from the use of interest bearing financial instruments. It is the
risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in interest rate (see 18.5 below).
18.5
Interest rate risk management
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for
both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end on the reporting period.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for
both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end on the reporting period.
If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant,
the Group’s loss for the year ended 30 June 2016 would increase/decrease by $20,187 (2015:
$4,869).
45
Dimerix Limited
18.6 Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting
in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy
counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the
risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the
equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating
agencies where available and, if not available, the Group uses other publicly available financial
information and its own trading records to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and
the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of
transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties.
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-
ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
18.7 Liquidity risk management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has
established an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the
Group’s short-, medium- and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The
Group manages liquidity by maintaining adequate banking facilities, by continuously monitoring
forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and
liabilities.

Subsidiary acquired
On 3 July 2015 Dimerix Limited (formerly Sun Biomedical Limited) completed the 100%
acquisition of Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd a clinical stage drug discovery and development
company. The consideration for this acquisition was $6,748,901 made up as follows:
i) 750,000,041 shares in Dimerix Limited;
ii) 75,000,040 Class A Performance shares (convertible into 75,000,040 shares upon receipt
by the Company of a notice of allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark
Office in relation to the US patent application within 24 months of completion of the
Acquisition);
iii) 75,000,040 Class B Performance shares (convertible into 75,000,040 shares upon the
Board making an investments decision to proceed to file an application to the US Food and
Drug administration for a pre-investigational New Drug meeting to progress development
of DMX200 following receipt of data generated under the clinical trial for chronic kidney

of ethics approval allowing commencement of a second clinical trial derived from the
Dimerix platform and in relation to an indication that is not covered under the existing
Austin Human Research Ethics Committee approval within 48 months of completion of the
Acquisition).

However, the acquisition has the features of a reverse acquisition as described in the Australian
50
Dimerix Limited
Accounting Standard AASB 3 “Business Combinations” notwithstanding Dimerix Limited being the
legal parent of the Group. The transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition from a
consolidated perspective, where Dimerix Bioscience Pty Ltd is the accounting acquirer and Dimerix
Limited is the legal acquirer.
The excess of the fair value of the shares owned by the Dimerix Limited (formerly Sun Biomedical
Limited) shareholders and the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Dimerix Limited
immediately prior to the completion of the merger is accounted for under “AASB 2 “Share –based
Payment” and resulted in the recognition of $3,971,811 being recorded as “Corporate Restructure
Expense”. The net assets of Dimerix Limited were recorded at fair value at completion of the
merger. No adjustments were required to the historical values.
