NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(a) 

Basis of Preparation 
The financial report is a special purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements 
of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and complies with other requirements of the 
law.  

The  financial  report  has  also  been  prepared  on  a  historical  cost  basis.    Cost  is  based  on  the  fair  values  of  the 
consideration given in exchange for assets. 

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars. 

The Company is an unlisted private company, incorporated in Australia and operating in Australia. The principal activity 
of the Company during the year was investment in Biotechnology. 

(b) 

Adoption of new and revised standards 
Changes in accounting policies on initial application of Accounting Standards 
In the year ended 30 June 2018, the Board has reviewed all new and revised standards and interpretations issued by 
the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period.  

As a result of this review, the Board has determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised standards 
and  interpretations  on  the  Company  and,  therefore,  no  material  change  is  necessary  to  the  Company  accounting 
policies.  

The Board has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for 
the period ended 30 June 2018. As a result of this review the Board has determined that there is no impact, material 
or  otherwise,  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and  Interpretations  on  its  business  and,  therefore,  no  change 
necessary to Company accounting policies.

(c) 

(d) 

Statement of compliance  
The  financial  report  was  authorised  for  issue  on  the  date  of  the  signed  Directors  Declaration.    The  financial  report 
complies  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards,  which  include  Australian  equivalents  to  International  Financial 
Reporting  Standards  (AIFRS).  Compliance  with  AIFRS  ensures  that  the  financial  report,  comprising  the  financial 
statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty 
The  application  of  accounting  policies  requires  the  use  of  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  about  carrying 
values  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.  

Useful lives of depreciable assets 
Management  reviews  its  estimate  of  the  useful  lives  of  depreciable  assets  at  each  reporting  date,  based  on  the 
expected utility of the assets.  

Impairment 
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating unit based 
on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions 
about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period 
in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the 
revision affects both current and future periods.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(e) 

(f) 

(g) 

Revenue recognition 
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the 
revenue can be reliably measured. 

Cash and cash equivalents  
Cash comprises cash at bank and on hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily 
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value.  Trade receivables are generally due for settlement 
within periods ranging from 15 days to 30 days.  

Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written 
off by reducing the carrying amount directly.  An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the 
Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by 
the  Company  in  making  this  determination  include  known  significant  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor,  review  of 
financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Company.  

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. 
When  a  trade  receivable  for  which  an  impairment  allowance  had  been  recognised  becomes  uncollectible  in  a 
subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written 
off are credited against other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. 

(h) 

Income tax 

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on 
the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable 
to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.   

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end 
of the reporting period.  Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in 
which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation.  It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of 
amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. 

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered 
from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are 
enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date. 

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and 
liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. 

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except: 

(cid:120)  when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a 
transaction  that  is  not  a  business  combination  and  that,  at  the  time  of  the  transaction,  affects  neither  the 
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or 

(cid:120)  when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in 
joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that 
the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(h) 

Income tax (continued) 
Deferred  income  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  all  deductible  temporary  differences,  carry-forward  of  unused  tax 
assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the 
deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, 
except: 

(cid:120)  when  the  deferred  income  tax  asset  relating  to  the  deductible  temporary  difference  arises  from  the  initial 
recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability  in  a  transaction  that  is  not  a  business  combination  and,  at  the  time  of  the 
transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

(cid:120)  when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests 
in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the 
temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the 
temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it 
is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset 
to be utilised. 

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that 
it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when 
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively 
enacted at the balance date. 

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. 

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax 
assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and 
the same taxation authority. 

(i) 

Other taxes 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except: 

(cid:120)  when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which 
case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; 
and 

(cid:120)  receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. 
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or 
payables in the statement of financial position. 

Cash flows are included 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. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the 
taxation authority.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(j) 

Impairment of tangible nad intangible assets other than goodwill 
The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any 
such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of 
the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its 
value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely 
independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be 
close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it 
belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or 
cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. 

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 money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment 
losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the 
impaired  asset  unless  the  asset  is  carried  at  revalued  amount  (in  which  case  the  impairment  loss  is  treated  as  a 
revaluation decrease). 

An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised 
impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is 
estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used 
to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the 
carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying 
amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset 
in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which 
case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in 
future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its 
remaining useful life. 

(k) 

Intangible assets 
Intangible assets acquired separately 
Intangible  assets  acquired  separately  are  recorded  at  cost  less  accumulated  amortisation  and  impairment. 
Amortisation  is  charged  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  their  estimated  useful  lives.  The  estimated  useful  life  and 
amortisation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with any changes in these accounting 
estimates being accounted for on a prospective basis. 

Internally generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure 
Expenditure  on  research  activities  is  recognised  as  an  expense  in  the  period  in  which  it  is  incurred.  Where  no 
internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in 
the period as incurred. 

An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, 
and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated: 

(cid:120) 
(cid:120) 
(cid:120) 
(cid:120) 
(cid:120) 

(cid:120) 

The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; 
The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; 
The ability to use or sell the intangible asset; 
How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;  
The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete development and to use or 
sell the intangible asset; and 
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. 

The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from 
the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above.  Subsequent to initial recognition, 
internally-generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment 
losses, on the same basis as intangible assets acquired separately.

Intangible assets 
The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation: 

(m) 

(n) 

License asset 

8 years following grant of patent 

Trade and other payables 
Trade  payables  and  other  payables  are  carried  at  amortised  costs  and  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and  services 
provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes 
obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade and other payables 
are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months. 

Provisions  
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past 
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation 
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 

When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the 
reimbursement is recognised as a separate assets 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.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects 
the risks specific to the liability. 

When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a borrowing cost. 

(o) 

Issued 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.

Financial risk management objectives and policies:
The Company has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments: 

Liquidity risk 
Interest rate risk 

(cid:120)  Credit risk 
(cid:120) 
(cid:120) 
(cid:120)  Market risk 
(cid:120)  Capital risk 

This  note  presents  information  about  the  Company’s  exposure  to  each  of  the  above  risks,  their  objectives,  policies  and 
processes  for  measuring  and  managing  risk,  and  the  management  of  capital.  The  Board  has  overall  responsibility  for  the 
establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of 
these risks and they are summarised below. 

The Company’s principal financial instruments comprise loan from shareholders and other current/non-current liabilities. The 
main purpose of the financial instruments is to provide working capital for the operations of the business. The Company also 
has other financial instruments such as trade creditors which arise directly from its operations. For the period under review, it 
has been the Company’s policy not to trade in financial instruments. 

(a) 

Credit risk management 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter-party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to 
the  Company.  The  Company  has  adopted  a  policy  of  only  dealing  with  creditworthy  counterparties  and  obtaining 
sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company 
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 Company uses publicly available financial 
information and its own trading record to rate its major customers and suppliers. 

The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counter-parties are continuously monitored. Credit exposure is 
controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the Board annually.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018 

NOTE 13: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) 

(a) 

Credit risk management (continued) 

The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in 
the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk 
without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained. 

(b) 

Liquidity risk management 

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk 
management  framework for  the management  of  the Company’s short,  medium and  long-term  funding  and liquidity 
management  requirements.  The  Company  manages  liquidity  risk  by  maintaining  adequate  reserves  and  banking 
facilities and by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial 
assets and liabilities. The Company did not have any undrawn facilities at its disposal as at balance date. 

(c) 

Interest rate risk management 

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk. 

(d) 

Market risk 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices 
will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Company is not exposed to 
market risk as at reporting date. 

(e) 

Capital Risk Management 

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that 
it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The primary source of Company 
funding  is  equity  raisings.  Accordingly,  the  objective  of  the  Company’s  capital  risk  management  is  to  balance  the 
current working capital position against the requirements to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. 
This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating 
appropriate capital raisings as required.
