About Us 

Holista Colltech’s core business is to conduct research to find natural solutions so that people can live healthier lives. 
The company holds proprietary solutions to help food manufacturers produce healthier alternatives – without use of 
chemicals – that do not compromise tastes and mouth-feel. Other key products include scientific enhanced bestselling 
natural  health  supplements  and  disease-  free  ovine  collagen.    Building  on  its  partnership  network  and  expertise, 
Holista has also developed sanitising solutions for individual and corporate use to control pandemic infections. 

Corporate Profile 

Holista Colltech Ltd (Holista) is a research-driven biotech company, a result of the merger of Holista Biotech Sdn Bhd 
and Colltech Australia Ltd. It is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:HCT), headquartered in Perth and 
has extensive operations in multiple countries, including Malaysia and North America.  

In the Food Ingredients space, Holista specialises in herbs and natural products that allow food manufacturers to 
produce healthier products. Mindful that people find it difficult to change eating habits despite the growing incidence 
of diabetes and obesity, Holista has created a suite of ingredients that does not compromise on taste, odour and 
mouthfeel. It has brought to markets thus far, low-Glycemic Index (GI) bread, noodles/pasta and flatbreads as well 
as a low-calorie/Low-GI sugar substitute. 

Holista is the only company in the world that produces ovine collagen from disease-free Australian sheep using 
patented extraction methods. 

Holista is a leader in Malaysia for the distribution of natural health supplements. It leverages on its R&D background 
and scientific expertise to build a world-class company focused on providing consumers with scientifically enhanced 
natural supplements and consumer products. 

Further, the Company also has a range of all-natural, non-toxic and effective sanitisers for consumers and industrial 
applications within its product portfolio.

Managing Directors' report 
31 December 2021 

Managing Director’s Report 

Dear Shareholders,  

On  behalf  of  the  Board  of  Directors  (“the  Board”)  of  Holista  Colltech  Limited  (“Holista”  or  the  “Group”),  I  am 
pleased to present our Annual Report and audited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 
2021 (“FY2021”). 

The period under review marks a significant turnaround for the Group with full-year revenue jumping 13% to a 
record high of $8 million as net loss before tax improved significantly over the previous year. The pleasing result 
was achieved despite the ongoing negative impact from COVID-19 with three out of four of Holista’s key divisions 
delivering growth when compared to FY2020. 

A summary on the performance of each of these divisions is outlined below: 

Dietary Supplements 
This is our largest division and it delivered a strong performance during the year with sales increasing 18% to 
$6.2 million. Sales rebounded strongly from the easing in COVID-19 restrictions in Malaysia and an increase 
consumer focus on health and wellbeing. 

Another notable achievement by this business is the successful launch of a water-soluble vitamin D supplement 
which provides an easy and effective way for consumers to boost levels of this important vitamin in their body. 

Holista’s vitamin and health supplement brands are market leaders in Malaysia and the rebound in sales from 
this business is likely to continue this year following what can only be described as a challenging FY2021 for the 
division due to strict social restrictions to control the pandemic. 

Healthy Food Ingredients 
Holista’s Healthy Food Ingredients business division was another standout as sales lifted by 33% to $1.4 million 
in 2021. The result was driven by increased orders for Holista’s proprietary GI Lite™ and 80LessTM products 
from several international customers, including community marketing group HWH International and US-based 
Costanzo’s Bakery, Inc. 

Costanzo’s uses Holista’s proprietary GI-Lite™ Bread Pre-mix for a dedicated range of low-Glycemic Index (GI) 
bread products, which is stocked at supermarkets in North America. The uplift in revenue from this business was 
also driven by larger orders for 80LessTM healthy sugar substitute from drinks manufacturer and Malaysia stock 
exchange-listed Rex Industry Berhad. 

We believe the best is yet to come for this division following the signing of a collaboration term sheet with Country 
Farms  Sdn  Bhd  –  a  subsidiary  of  Malaysian  conglomerate  Berjaya  Corporation  Berhad.  Country  Farms  is 
partnering  with  Holista  to  develop  healthier  food  options  using  the  Group’s  all-natural  food  ingredients  and 
supplements. These healthier foods could potentially be sold through Malaysian franchises owned by Berjaya, 
including Starbucks, 7-Eleven and Kenny Rogers Roasters. 

Ovine Collagen 
The Collagen Manufacturing business division also grew strongly with sales up by 43% to $248,000 in 2021 
compared to the previous corresponding period. The improvement is mainly due to increased orders from Behn 
Meyer in Thailand as the COVID-19 restrictions eased. Behn Meyer is a specialty supplier for a wide variety of 
industries across the globe. It uses Holista’s unique collagen product in the manufacture of some of its cosmetics. 

Holista owns a patented process to extract collagen from sheep skin from its facility in Western Australia, and 
Australian sheep products are highly prized due to their disease-free status. 

These key advantages are the reasons behind interest from Guangzhou Sinbio Cosmetic Co Ltd, a Chinese 
State-Owned Enterprise (SOE), in Holista’s unique offering as announced in May 2021. Sinbio is in the process 
of testing Holista’s collagen, and if the tests are successful and once Chinese regulatory clearances are obtained, 
Sinbio  will  sign  a  binding  five-year  agreement  to  purchase  the  entire  48-ton  annual  production  capacity  of 
Holista’s existing plant in the first year of the contract. 

The order will scale up to 144 tons in year two, 288 tons in year three and 576 tons in years four and five. Holista 
will expand the plant to accommodate the step-up in orders from Sinbio.

Holista Colltech Limited 
Managing Directors' report 
31 December 2021 

Infection Control 
This division is the only one to report a slide in sales. Revenue from Infection Control fell to $227,443 in FY2021 
from $664,919 in the previous year due largely to supply chain and other disruptions from COVID-19 

However, sales have started to recover in recent months and the launch of new products are expected to further 
lift the performance of this business in 2022.

Holista Colltech Limited 
Managing Directors' report 
31 December 2021 

Outlook 

Holista is in a strong position to build on the achievements it’s made in the previous financial year. We are expecting 
to  deliver  further  growth  in  revenue  and  earnings  as  trading  conditions  remained  positive  for  our  four  business 
divisions as we entered the new financial year. 

For instance, the Supplements business continues to see strong demand for its supplements and vitamins in light of 
the  ongoing  easing  of  COVID-19  social  restrictions  in  Malaysia.  The  launch  of  Holista’s  water  soluble  vitamin  D 
product is also expected to contribute to growth in this business. Vitamin D is increasingly being recognised as a key 
nutrient for immunity and Holista will continue to leverage this opportunity in Malaysia and other countries. 

The outlook for Food Ingredients is also bright following the 12th of October 2021 announcement of a term sheet 
collaboration  agreement  (the  Agreement)  with  Country  Farms,  a  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Berjaya  Corporation 
Berhad, to customise and commercialise the Company’s unique healthy food innovations for several international 
franchises under Berjaya’s umbrella. 

Country  Farms  has  completed  the  final  testing  of  a  healthier  version  of  a  croissant  that  will  be  launched  in  327 
Starbucks  stores  across  Malaysia  in  the  second  half  of  2022,  and  Holista  expects  more  food  products  using  its 
technology to be announced later this year. Under the Agreement, Country Farms will be the Centre of Distribution 
for Holista’s range of healthy food products for companies within the Berjaya group, which includes the franchises of 
Starbucks, 7-Eleven and Kenny Rogers Roasters, amongst others. Holista is also working a range of plant-based 
meats to complement the low GI range at the request of Starbucks Malaysia. 

Meanwhile, the 2022 financial year could also herald an exciting period for our Ovine Collagen business. Guangzhou 
Sinbio  Cosmetic  Co  Ltd  is  undertaking  tests  and  securing  regulatory  approval  to  import  Holista’s  cosmetic-grade 
collagen into China. As part of this process, Holista’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for bulk ovine collagen has 
been granted approval by Chinese Customs. This will allow Holista to ship bulk raw collagen to the country for final 
testing. 

Finally,  the  Infection  Control  business  is  expected  to  stage  a  turnaround  this  year  from  improved  sales  of  its 
NatshieldTM sanitiser, nasal balm and wipes. The nasal balm was launched online in the 2021 December quarter and 
will be sold in the United States through a multi-level marketing network in the near future. 

Additionally, the previously announced SARS-CoV-2 rapid test kit branded as “Gene Sign” is awaiting final approval 
by regulators in Colombia. Securing the approval in Colombia will also give Gene Sign corresponding approvals in 
Brazil, Argentina and Mexico, thanks to an arrangement between the four countries. 

In North America, Gene Sign is also in the process of gaining approval under the Medical Device Single Audit Program 
(MDSAP)  with  the  United  States  Food  and  Drug  Administration  (FDA).  Separately,  Gene  Sign’s  Reverse-
Transcription  Loop-Mediated  Isothermal  Amplification  (RT-LAMP)  technology  is  undergoing  final  evaluation  in  the 
United Kingdom to secure COVID Testing Devices Authorisation (CTDA) that will allow it to be sold in that market. 

This  time  last  year,  I  wrote  about  the  bright  outlook  for  2021  and  our  strong  full  year  results  show  that  we  were 
successful in executing on our key growth strategies. This year is looking even brighter given the multiple significant 
opportunities ahead of us, and I look forward to bringing you further updates throughout 2022. 

Best regards, 

DR RAJEN MANICKA  
Executive Chairman, MD and CEO

Directors' report

Operating and financial review 
Group Operations Review: 

Holista Colltech Limited (Holista or the Company) posted a 12.9% increase in group revenue to a record high of just over $8 
million for the 12-months ended 31 December 2021 as the full year net loss before income tax expense narrowed significantly 
to $1.2 million from a loss of $5.6 million in the previous year. Net loss after tax also improved materially to $1.4 million 
versus $5.7 million in the previous year. 

The improved result was achieved despite the negative impact of COVID-19 with three out of four of Holista’s key divisions 
delivering strong growth over the previous corresponding period (pcp). 

Dietary Supplements: 
The Company’s Dietary Supplements business division continued to be the largest income contributor to the Group. Revenue 
from this business jumped by 18% to $6.2 million as sales rebounded strongly from the easing of COVID-19 restrictions in 
Malaysia, increased consumer focus on health and wellbeing, and the launch of a new health supplement called Hydro D in 
Q3 FY2021. 

Hydro  D  is  a  water-soluble  vitamin  D  that  has  far  better  absorption  compared  to  fat-soluble  base  and  more  efficient  to 
supplement  the  body’s  immune  system.  Studies  have  also  shown  that  deficiency  in  Vitamin  D  contributes  to  the  causal 
pathway of COVID-19 mortality risk and disease severity 1. 

Holista is planning to develop other new products to be sold commercially this year, including chewable Omega-3 gummies 
for children.

Healthy Food Ingredients: 
Holista’s Healthy Food Ingredients business division increased sales by 33% to $1.4 million in FY2021. The result was driven 
by increased orders for Holista’s GI Lite™ innovation from US-based Costanzo’s Bakery, Inc. and HWH International, and 
increased orders for its proprietary 80LessTM healthy sugar substitute from drinks manufacturer Rex Industry Berhad. 

Ovine Collagen: 
The Collagen Manufacturing business division also grew strongly in the period with sales up by 43% to $248,100 in FY 2021 
compared to the previous corresponding period. The improvement is primarily due to increased orders from Behn Meyer in 
Thailand as the COVID-19 restrictions eased. 

Infection Control Solutions: 
Holista’s Infection Control Solutions business division achieved sales of $227,443 in FY2021 compared with $664,919 in the 
previous corresponding period. This is the second year that this business contributed to the Group’s revenue.  

Supply chain disruptions from COVID-19 contributed to a drop in revenue, although sales have begun to recover in recent 
months with the launch of new products, such as the nasal balm, expected to lift the performance of this business in 2022. 

Significant changes in the state of affairs 
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial year.

 Assessment of Effectiveness 

 Pursuant to the Company's Board Charter, the full Board carries out the duties 
of the Audit Risk Committee including to direct, review, and initiate corrective 
action in matters of internal control and minimise risk exposures compatible 
with a Group of this size and nature. 
 An exercise has been performed to assess the various business risks that 
impinge upon the Group. They have been categorised according to which part 
or parts of the business would be affected, what controls might be put in place 
and whether the resulting levels of exposure are acceptable. 
 The Group has taken decisions as to how it should manage the various 
categories of risk exposure and they include the imposition of Standard 
Operating Procedures (SOPs) for routine business transactions; mitigation 
policies to lessen or obviate risks such as Insurance Policies and formal long-
term Agreements with critical suppliers; and hedging arrangements if 
applicable. 
 SOPs have been drawn up, circulated and regularly monitored to ensure 
adherence to company policy. They include the various cash, purchasing, 
sales, and payment cycles, and payroll. Levels of Authority have been set, 
divisions of duty are made and multiple signature approvals imposed. Regular 
checks are made by management to ensure that these controls are indeed in 
place and complied with. 
 The management in the first instance assesses the effectiveness of the risk 
management policies and in conjunction with the Audit Committee (comprise 
the full Board of Directors) and External Auditors, instructs improvements to be 
put in place.

At the date of this report, both the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Audit and Risk Committees comprises 
the full Board of Directors. The Directors believe the Company is not currently of a size nor are its affair of such complexity 
as  to  warrant  the  establishment  of  these  separate  committees.  Accordingly,  all  matters  capable  of  delegation  to  such 
committees are considered by the full Board of Directors. 

Indemnity and insurance of officers 
Indemnification 
The Company has agreed to indemnify all the directors of Holista for any liabilities to another person (other than the Company 
or related body corporate) that may arise from their position as directors of the Company and its controlled entities, except 
where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith. 

Insurance premiums 
During the financial year the Group has paid a premium of $50,000 (2020: $17,418) in respect of a contract to insure the 
directors and officers of the Company and its controlled entities against any liability incurred in the course of their duties to 
the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). 

Indemnity and insurance of auditor 
The Company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the 
company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor. 

During the financial year, the Company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the company 
or any related entity.

There were no unissued ordinary shares of Holista Colltech Limited under option outstanding at the date of this report. 

Shares issued on the exercise of performance rights 
There  were  no  ordinary  shares  of  Holista  Colltech  Limited  issued  on  the  exercise  of  options  during  the  year  ended  31 
December 2021 and up to the date of this report. 

Shares under Performance Rights 
There were no unissued ordinary shares of Holista Colltech Limited under performance rights outstanding at the date of this 
report. 

Non-audit services 
During the year, no fees were paid or payable for other services provided by Stantons International Audit and Consulting Pty 
Ltd. However, Marsden International, an affiliate of Stantons International provided tax compliance and independent expert 
services. Non-audit fees amounted to $5,590 (2020: $5,870). 

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in note 29 to the financial statements. 

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001. 

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 29 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 
● 

 all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity 
of the auditor; and 
 none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code 
of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including 
reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, 
acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. 

● 

Proceedings on behalf of the company 
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf 
of the company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility 
on behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings. 

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 
immediately after this directors' report.

Holista Colltech Limited 
Directors' report 
31 December 2021 

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
Remuneration philosophy 
The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of the KMP. The philosophy of the Company in determining 
remuneration levels is to: 

● 
● 
● 

 set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees 
 link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and 
 establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration 

Remuneration committee 
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for 
its directors and executives, and currently its responsibilities are undertaken by the full Board.  

The  Remuneration  Committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  is  responsible  for  determining  and  reviewing 
compensation arrangements for the directors, the CEO and the executive team. 

The  Remuneration Committee  assesses  the  appropriateness of  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  of  directors and 
executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with an overall objective of ensuring 
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality KMP. 

Remuneration structure 
In accordance with best practice Corporate Governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration 
is separate and distinct. 

Non-Executive director remuneration    
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. 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 on 1 December 2003 when shareholders approved an aggregate 
remuneration of $200,000 per year. 

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned 
amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from external shareholders as well as the fees paid to 
non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. 

Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Company. An additional fee is also paid for each Board committee on 
which a director sits. The payment of additional fees for serving on a committee recognises the additional time commitment 
required by directors who serve on one or more sub committees.  

The remuneration of non-executive directors for the year ended 31 December 2021 is detailed in note 28 'Key management 
personnel disclosures' of this consolidated financial statement. 
Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives' interests by: 
● 
● 
● 

 rewarding capability and experience 
 reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth 
 providing a clear structure for earning rewards 

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

Holista Colltech Limited 
Directors' report 
31 December 2021 

Senior manager and executive director remuneration 
Remuneration  consists  of  fixed  remuneration  and  variable  remuneration  (comprising  short-term  and  long-term  incentive 
schemes). 

Fixed Remuneration 
Fixed  remuneration  is  reviewed  annually  by  the  Board.  The  process  consists  of  a  review  of  relevant  comparative 
remuneration in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Committee 
has access to external, independent advice where necessary. 

Senior managers are given the opportunity to receive their fixed (primary) remuneration in a variety of forms including cash 
and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles and expense payment plans. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen 
will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Group. 

The fixed remuneration component of the company executives is detailed in page 17 of this remuneration report. 

Variable Remuneration 
The aggregate of annual payments available for KMP across the Group is subject to the approval of the Nomination and 
Remuneration Committee during the year. 

Performance Based Remuneration Short-term and long-term incentive structure 
The Board will review short-term and long-term incentive structures from time to time. Any incentive structure will be aligned 
with shareholders' interests. 

● 

● 

 Short-term incentives 
There was a cash bonus of $17,231 granted and paid to Rajen Manicka as short-term incentive during the financial 
year. 
 Long-term incentives 
The Board has a policy of granting incentive options and performance rights to KMP with exercise prices above market 
share price. As such, incentive options granted to executives will generally only be of benefit if the executives perform 
to the level whereby the value of the Group increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the incentive options granted. 

The executive Directors will be eligible to participate in any short term and long-term incentive arrangements operated or 
introduced by the Company (or any subsidiary) from time to time. 

Service Contracts 
Remuneration and other terms of employment for the directors and other KMP are formalised in contracts of employment. 

Engagement of Remuneration Consultants 
During the financial year, the Company did not engage any remuneration consultants. 

Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Earnings 
The Company is also in the midst of commercialising some of its patented technologies, namely its Healthy Food ingredients 
and  Sheep  Collagen.  Accordingly,  the  Company's  remuneration  policy  during  the  current  and  the  previous  four  financial 
years is not related to the Company's performance. 

Details of KMP remuneration 
Amounts of remuneration 
Details of the remuneration of key management personnel of the consolidated entity are set out in the following tables.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2021 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out either in the respective 
notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 
The consolidated entity 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. 

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

Going concern 
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business 
activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. 

The Group incurred a loss after tax for the year of $1,357,034 (2020: $5,680,567 loss) and a net cash out-flow from operating 
activities of $1,676,068 out-flow (2020: $3,867,610 out-flow). As at 31 December 2021, the Group's working capital amounted 
to $2,422,134 (2020: $3,972,819 working capital), as disclosed in note 21 of the Issued capital note. 

This financial report is prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and 
realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The ability of the Group to continue to 
pay its debts as and when they fall due is dependent upon the Group's ability to generate positive cash flows through its 
existing business and/ or raising of further equity. 

As  the  world  battle  against  COVID-19  pandemic  is  far  from  over,  the  Group  is  confident  that  the  revenue  from  different 
business segments will continue to grow and contribute positively to its cashflows and profitability in the year 2022. The 
Group is optimistic about its ability to meets all its liabilities. 

Should  the  Group  not  be able  to continue  as a  going  concern,  it  may  be required  to  realise  its  assets and  discharge  its 
liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial report. 
The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or 
liabilities that might be necessary should he group not continue as a going concern.  

Basis of preparation 
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate 
for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as 
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). 

Historical cost convention 
The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  except  for,  where  applicable,  the 
revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other 
comprehensive  income,  investment  properties,  certain  classes  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  derivative  financial 
instruments. 

Parent entity information 
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. 
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 33. 

Principles of consolidation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of  Holista  Colltech  Limited 
('company' or 'parent entity') as at 31 December 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Holista 
Colltech Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. 

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity 
when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the 
ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from 
the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2021 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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. 

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, 
without  the  loss  of  control,  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity  transaction,  where  the  difference  between  the  consideration 
transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable 
to the parent. 

Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and 
other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the consolidated entity. 
Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit 
balance. 

Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and 
non-controlling  interest  in  the  subsidiary  together  with  any  cumulative  translation  differences  recognised  in  equity.  The 
consolidated  entity  recognises  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  and  the  fair  value  of  any  investment  retained 
together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. 

Foreign currency translation 
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 which is the legal 
parent entity's functional and presentation currency. 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the 
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured 
at 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 at the date when fair values were determined. 

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss except where deferred 
in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  non-monetary  items  are  recognised  directly  in  other  comprehensive 
income to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other comprehensive income, otherwise the exchange 
difference is recognised in the profit or loss. 

Foreign operations 
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 that reporting date; 
 income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and 
 retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  translation  of  foreign  operations  are  transferred  directly  to  the  Group's  foreign  currency 
translation reserve in the consolidated statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the profit or loss 
in the period in which the operation is disposed. 

Current and non-current classification 
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. 

An  asset  is  classified  as  current  when:  it  is  either  expected  to  be  realised  or  intended  to  be  sold  or  consumed  in  the 
consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 
12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used 
to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; 
it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. 

Financial assets 
Classification 

From 1 January 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: 

      ● Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss), and  
      ● Those to be measured at amortised cost. 

The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the 
cash flows.  

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For investments in equity 
instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time 
of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).  

The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.  

Recognition and derecognition 

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits to 
purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets 
have expired or have been transferred and the group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. 

Measurement 

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair 
value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. 
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss. 

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are 
solely payment of principal and interest.   

● 

i. Debt instruments 
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash 
flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the group classifies its debt instruments: 
 Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely 
● 
payments  of  principal  and  interest  are  measured  at  amortised  cost.  Interest  income  from  these  financial  assets  is 
included  in  finance  income  using  the  effective  interest  rate  method.  Any  gain  or  loss  arising  on  derecognition  is 
recognised  directly  in  profit  or  loss  and  presented  in  other  gains/(losses)  together  with  foreign  exchange  gains  and 
losses. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss. 
 FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets’ 
cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying 
amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign 
exchange  gains  and  losses  which  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss.  When  the  financial  asset  is  derecognised,  the 
cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other 
gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate 
method.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  are  presented  in  other  gains/(losses)  and  impairment  expenses  are 
presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss 
 FVPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt 
investment  that  is  subsequently  measured  at  FVPL  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  and  presented  net  within  other 
gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

ii. Equity instruments 
The  Group  subsequently  measures  all  equity  investments  at  fair  value.  Where  the  Group’s  management  has  elected  to 
present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains 
and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be 
recognised in profit or loss as other income when the group’s right to receive payments is established. 

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognised in other gains/(losses) in the statement of profit or loss 
as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not 
reported separately from other changes in fair value. 

Investments 
Investments  includes  non-derivative  financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable  payments and  fixed  maturities  where  the 
consolidated entity has the positive intention and ability to hold the financial asset to maturity. This category excludes financial 
assets that are held for an undefined period. Investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method 
adjusted for any principal repayments. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or 
impaired. 

Value added taxes 
Value-added tax (VAT) is the generic team for the broad-based consumption taxes that the Group is exposed to such as: 
Australia (Goods and Services Tax or GST) and in Malaysia (Goods and Services Tax or GST), hereafter collectively referred 
to as GST.  

Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amounts of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is 
not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition 
of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. 

Receivables and payables in the consolidated statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.  

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office (or jurisdictional equivalent) is included 
as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet.  

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

Fair Value 
The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending 
on the requirements of the applicable AASB. 

Fair  value  is  the  price  the  Group  would  receive  to  sell  an  asset  or  would  have  to  pay  to  transfer  a  liability  in  an  orderly 
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 or liability. 
The fair values of assets and liabilities 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 or liability (i.e. the market 
with  the  greatest  volume  and  level  of  activity  for  the  asset  or  liability)  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 or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs 
and transport costs). 

For  non-financial  assets,  the  fair  value  measurement  also  considers  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. 

Fair value hierarchy 
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: 

28 

 
  
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
Holista Colltech Limited 
Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2021 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

● 

● 

● 

 Level 1:Measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the 
entity can access at the measurement date. 
 Level 2:Measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset 
or liability, either directly or indirectly. 
 Level 3:Measurements based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. 

The fair values of assets and liabilities 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. If all significant 
inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant 
inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3. 

The Group would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances: 

● 
● 

 If a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; or 
 If significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa. 

When a change in the categorisation occurs, the Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy (i.e. 
transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances occurred. 

Valuation techniques 
The Group selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to 
measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the 
asset or liability being measured. The valuation techniques selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the 
following valuation approaches:  

● 

● 

● 

 Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions 
for identical or similar assets or liabilities.  
 Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows into income and expenses into a single 
discounted present value.  
 Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity.  

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the 
asset or liability including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives priority to those 
techniques  that  maximise  the  use  of  observable  inputs  and  minimise  the  use  of  unobservable  inputs.  Inputs  that  are 
developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions that 
buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs for 
which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions 
are considered unobservable. 

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

The  preparation  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements 
and  estimates  in  relation  to  assets,  liabilities,  contingent  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses.  Management  bases  its 
judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  on  historical  experience  and  on  other  various  factors,  including  expectations  of 
future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no critical accounting judgements, 
estimates and assumptions that are likely to affect the current or future financial years. 

These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various factors that are believed to be 
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of 
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised 
in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Management discusses with the Board the development, selection and disclosure of the Group's critical accounting policies 
and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk 
of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed 
below: 

● 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 Key estimate – impairment of property, plant and equipment (note 14 Property, plant and equipment) 
 Key estimate – impairment of goodwill (note 15 Intangible assets) 
 Key estimate – determining stand-alone selling price of the loyalty points (note 17 contract liabilities) 
 Key estimate – determining the lease term (note 19 Leases) 
 Key estimate - determining the allowance for expected credit losses (note 9 trade and other receivables)  

Note 3. Operating segments 

Identification of reportable operating segments 
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are provided to the Board of Directors 
(the Board) on a monthly basis and in determining the allocation of resources. Management has identified the operating 
segments based on the principal activities – Supplements; Ovine Collagen; Infection Control Solutions; Food Ingredients; 
and Corporate. 

Accounting policies adopted 

Unless  stated  otherwise,  all  amounts  reported  to  the  Board,  being  the  chief  decision  maker  with  respect  to  operating 
segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial 
statements of the Group. 

Types of products and services 
The principal products and services of each of these operating segments are as follows: 
Supplements 

Ovine collagen 

Food ingredients 

Infection control 

 This operating segment is involved in the manufacture and wholesale distribution of dietary 
supplements. 
 This operating segment is involved in the manufacture and distribution of cosmetic grade 
collagen. 
 This operating segment is involved in the manufacture and wholesale distribution of healthy 
food ingredients. 
 This operating segment is involved in the infection control solutions. 

Intersegment transactions 
All such transactions are eliminated on consolidation of the Group's financial statements. 

Inter-segment  loans  payable  and  receivable  are  initially  recognised  at  the  consideration  received/to  be  received  net  of 
transaction costs. If inter-segment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair 
value  based  on  market  interest  rates.  This  policy  represents  a  departure  from  that  applied  to  the  statutory  financial 
statements. 

Segment assets 
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to that segment that receives majority economic 
value from that asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and 
physical location.

Note 3. Operating segments (continued) 

Segment liabilities 
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations 
of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. 
Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings. 

Major customers 
The Group has a number of customers to whom it provides both products and services.  

Within the Supplement segment, the Group supplies to a number of retailers through one single external distributor who 
accounts for 88% (2020: 83%) of total revenue for this segment. For Food Ingredients business segments, the Group supplies 
to  a  few  major  customers  that  accounts  62%  (2020:  65%)  of  revenue  for  this  segment.  For  Infections  Control  business 
segments, the Group supplies to a few major customers that accounts 88% (2020: 81%) of revenue for these segments. The 
Group supplies to a few external customers for the Ovine Collagen segment, where the major customer accounts for 100% 
(2020: 89%) of revenue for this segment.

Accounting policy for Revenue from contracts with customers 
Revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that 
reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. 

Revenue is recognised by applying a five-step process outlined in AASB 15 which is as follows: 

● 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 Identify the contract with a customer; 
 Identify the performance obligations in the contract and determine at what point they are satisfied;  
 Determine the transaction price;  
 Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and  
 Recognise the revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.

Note 4. Revenue from contracts with customers (continued) 

Revenue is recognised when or as a performance obligation in the contract with customer is satisfied, i.e. when the control 
of  the  goods  or  services  underlying  the  particular  performance  obligation  is  transferred  to  the  customer.  A  performance 
obligation is a promise to transfer a distinct goods or service (or a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially 
the same and that have the same pattern of transfer) to the customer that is explicitly stated in the contract and implied in 
the Group's customary business practices.  

Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring 
the promised goods or services to the customers, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as sales taxes 
or services taxes. If the amount of consideration varies due to discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, incentives, penalties or 
other similar items, the Group estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled based on the expected value 
or  the  most  likely  outcome.  If  the  contract  with customer contains  more  than one  performance  obligation,  the  amount  of 
consideration is allocated to each performance obligation based on the relative stand-alone selling prices of the goods or 
services promised in the contract. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in 
the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration 
is subsequently resolved. 

The control of the promised goods or services may be transferred over time or at a point in time. The control over the goods 
or services is transferred over time and revenue is recognised over time if: 

● 

● 

● 

 the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group's performance as the Group 
performs;  
 the Group's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; 
or 
 the Group's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Group has an enforceable right to 
payment for performance completed to date. 

Revenue for performance obligation that is not satisfied over time is recognised at the point in time at which the customer 
obtains control of the promised goods or services. 

Sale of health care products 
Sale of health care products comprise revenue from supplements, food ingredients and infection control. 

Revenue from sales of health care products is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the 
customer, i.e. upon delivery of goods to the customers. Some contracts for the sale of health care products provide customers 
with a right of return and volume rebates. The rights of return and volume rebates give rise to variable consideration. 

a.          Rights of return 

Certain contracts provide a customer with a right of return the goods within a specific period. The Group uses its accumulated 
historical experience to estimate the level of returns using the expected value method because this method best predicts the 
amount of variable consideration to which the Group will be entitled. The constraining estimates of variable consideration are 
also applied in order to determine the amount of variable consideration that can be included in the transaction price. For 
goods that are expected to be returned, instead of revenue, the Group recognises a refund liability. A right of return assets 
and corresponding adjustment to cost of sales is also recognised for the right to recover products from a customer. 

b.          Volume rebates 

The Group provides retrospective volume rebates to certain customers once the quantity of products purchased during the 
period  exceeds  a  threshold  specified  in  the  contract.  Rebates  are  offset  against  amounts  payable  by  the  customer.  To 
estimate the variable consideration for the expected future rebates, the Group applies the most likely amount method for 
contracts with a single-volume threshold and the expected value method for contracts with more than one volume threshold. 
The selected method that best predicts the amount of variable consideration is primarily driven by the number of volume 
thresholds  contained  in  the  contract.  The  Group  then  applies  that  requirements  on  constraining  estimates  of  variable 
consideration and recognised a refund liability for the expected future rebates. 

Sale of health care products through single level direct selling 
Revenue from single level direct selling of health care products is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset 
is transferred to the customer, i.e. upon delivery of goods to the customers.

Accounting policy for Employee Benefit Expense Short-term  
Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the 
reporting  date  represent  present  obligations  resulting  from  employees'  services  provided  to  the  reporting  date  and  are 
calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay at the 
reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers compensation insurance and payroll tax. 

Non-accumulating non-monetary benefits, such as medical care, housing, cars and free or subsidised goods and services, 
are expensed based on the net marginal cost to the Group as the benefits are taken by the employees. 

Accounting policy for Defined contribution superannuation funds 
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions onto a separate 
entity  and  will  have  no  legal  or  constructive  obligation  to  pay  further  amounts.  Obligations  for  contributions  to  defined 
contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss as incurred.

Note 7. Income tax expense (continued) 

i.  the  Group  derives  future  assessable  income  of  a  nature  and  of  an  amount  sufficient  to  enable  the  benefit  from  the 
deductions for the loss to be realised; 

ii. the Group continues to comply with conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and 

iii. no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group in realising the benefit from the deductions for the loss. 

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of 
directors.  These  estimates  consider  both  the  financial  performance  and  position  of  the  Group  as  they  pertain  to  current 
income taxation legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future 
taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents that directors' best estimate, pending an assessment by tax 
authorities in relevant jurisdictions. 

The parent company has accumulated tax losses of $10,219,782 (2020: $8,974,034) which are expected to be available 
indefinitely for offset against future taxable profits of the parent company in which the losses arose. The recoupment of these 
losses is subject to assessment of the Australian Taxation Office. The parent company has additional accumulated tax losses 
of $1,245,748 which are not expected to be available to offset any future taxable profits as their origin cannot be determined. 
No deferred tax asset has been recorded in relation to these tax losses as it is not probable that taxable profit will be available 
in the foreseeable future and they may not be used to offset taxable.

Note 7. Income tax expense (continued) 

Accounting policy for Income tax expense 

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 in the countries where the Company's subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. 
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: 

● 

● 

 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 
 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. 

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: 

● 

● 

 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 
 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.

Note 7. Income tax expense (continued) 

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. 

Holista Colltech Limited recognises its own current and deferred tax amounts and those current tax liabilities, current tax 
assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax credits and unused tax losses which it has assumed from its controlled 
entities within the tax consolidated group. 

Assets  or  liabilities  arising  under  tax  funding  agreements  with  the  tax  consolidated  entities  are  recognised  as  amounts 
payable  or  receivable  from  or  payable  to  other  entities  in  the  Group.  Any  difference  between  the  amounts  receivable  or 
payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) controlled entities in the 
tax consolidated group. 

Where the Group receives the Australian Government's Research and Development Tax Incentive, the Group accounts for 
the refundable tax offset under AASB 112. Funds are received as a rebate through the parent company's income tax return.

The average credit period on sales of goods and rendering of services ranges from 30 to 240 days. Interest is not charged. 
During the year ended 31 December 2021 an allowance of $1,934,523 has been made for estimated irrecoverable trade 
receivable  amounts  arising  from  past  sale  of  goods,  determined  by  reference  to  past  default  experience.  Amounts  are 
considered as ‘past due’ when the debt has not been settled, within the terms and conditions agreed between the Group and 
the customer or counter party to the transaction.  

Included  in  trade  receivables  is  an  amount  due  from  companies  in  which  a  director  has  interest  of  $1,082,810  (2020: 
$1,071,048).  During  the  year,  the  carrying  amount  of  the  allowance  for  credit  losses  amounted  to  $1,082,810 
(2020:$1,071,048). 

As at 31 December 2021, the amounts advanced to a related party of $180,623 charged interest at 3% and the amount 
advanced to a third party of $294,534 charged interest at 3% in its first year and 5% in its second year, on accrual basis. In 
prior year, an impairment of $475,157 has been made to fully impair the amounts advanced to a related party and a third 
party.

Note 9. Trade and other receivables (continued) 

Accounting policy for trade and other receivables 
Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from 30 to 240 days. Receivables expected to be 
collected  within  12  months  of  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  are  classified  as  current  assets.  All  other  receivables  are 
classified as non-current assets. 

Trade and other 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. 

Accounting policy for allowance for expected credit losses 
The Group assesses impairment on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with its debt  instruments 
carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant 
increase in credit risk.  

For  trade  receivables,  the  Group  applies  the simplified  approach permitted by  AASB  9,  which  requires  expected  lifetime 
losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

Accounting policy for inventories 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 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; and 
 Finished goods and work-in-progress - cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads 
based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. 

Stock-in-transit is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises of purchase and delivery costs, net of 
rebates and discounts received or receivable. 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion 
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Accounting policy for right-of-use assets 
The  Group  recognises  a  right-of-use  asset  at  the  commencement  date  of  the  lease.  The  right-of-use  asset  is  initially 
measured at cost. The cost of right of use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, adjusted for any lease 
payments made at or before the commencement date, plus initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle, 
remove or restore the leased asset, less any lease incentives received. 

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: 

● 
● 
● 
● 

 The amount of the initial measurement of lease liability 
 Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received 
 Any initial direct costs, and 
 Restoration costs. 

Subsequent to initial measurement, the right of use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease 
term and the estimated useful life as follows: 

● 
● 

 Motor vehicles                                         5 years 
 Properties (in processing factory)           3-30 years 

Right of use assets are subject to impairment and are adjusted for any measurement of lease liabilities. 

Extension and termination options 

An  extension  options  is  included  in  a  property  of  the  Group.  This  is  used  to  maximise  operational  flexibility  in  terms  of 
managing the assets used in the Group's operations. The extension option held is exercisable only by the Group and not by 
the respective lessor.

In  FY2020,  there  was  an  amount  of  $428,787  included  in  prepayments  for  deposit  and  advances  previously  made  to 
ProImmune Company LLC for supply contract. ProImmune Company LLC filed for purported breaches of supply contracts 
by  the  Company  in  February  2020.  As  it  is  not  practical  to  estimate  when  the  decision  of  the  court  will  be  made,  the 
prepayments has been fully impaired. 

Security deposits are restricted cash. In order to obtain various financing facilities, banks in Malaysia require cash to be 
deposited if other collateral is not available. These deposits are interest bearing and the interest is compounded and added 
to the principal. 

Loan to a related party as at 31 December 2021 is related to loan to Galen BioMedical Inc. which is non-interest bearing and 
repayable upon demand.  

Accounting policy for Right of return assets 
Right of return assets represents the Group's right to recover the goods expected to be returned by customers. The asset is 
measured  at  the  former  carrying  amount  of  the  inventory,  less  any  expected  costs  to  recover  the  goods,  including  any 
potential  decrease  in  the  value  of  the  returned  goods.  At  the  end  of  each  reporting  period,  the  Group  updates  the 
measurement of the asset arising from the changes in expectations about products to be returned. 

Accounting policy for customer fulfilment costs 
Customer fulfilment costs are capitalised as an asset when all the following are met: (i) the costs relate directly to the contract 
or specifically identifiable proposed contract; (ii) the costs generate or enhance resources of the consolidated entity that will 
be used to satisfy future performance obligations; and (iii) the costs are expected to be recovered. Customer fulfilment costs 
are amortised on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

Note 14. Property, plant and equipment (continued) 

Freehold land and buildings are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation on buildings and less any impairment 
losses recognised after the date of the revaluation. 

Items of plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and carried at cost less accumulated depreciation (see table 
below) and impairment losses (see accounting policy for impairment below). 

Cost  includes  expenditure  that  is  directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition  of  the  asset.  The  cost  of  self-constructed  assets 
includes  the  cost  of  materials  and  direct  labour,  any  other  costs  directly  attributable  to  bringing  the  asset  to  a  working 
condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are 
located, and an appropriate proportion of production overheads. Cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for 
capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is 
recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation. 

Where  considered  material,  the  carrying  amount  of  property,  plant,  and  equipment  is  reviewed  annually  by  Directors  to 
ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of 
the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net 
cash flows have not been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 

Where parts of an item of property, plant, and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items 
of plant and equipment. 

Subsequent costs 

The cost of replacing part of an item of plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable 
that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably. Any 
costs of the day-to-day servicing of plant and equipment are recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. 

Derecognition and disposal 
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are 
expected from its use or disposal. 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  asset)  is  included  in  profit  or  loss  in  the  year  the  asset  is 
derecognised. 

Plant  and  equipment  is  stated  at  historical  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment.  Historical  cost  includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 

Depreciation 

Depreciation is charged to the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the Group commencing from 
the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired 
period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. 

Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually for appropriateness. The depreciation rates used for the current and 
comparative periods are:

than its estimated recoverable amount.

Note 14. Property, plant and equipment (continued) 

Impairment of property, plant and equipment 
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The 
assessment will consider both external and internal sources of information. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is 
carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less 
costs  of  disposal  and  value  in  use,  to  the  asset’s  carrying  amount.  Any  excess  of  the  asset’s  carrying  amount  over  its 
recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount 
of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Impairment  losses  recognised  in  prior  periods  are  assessed  at  each  reporting  date  for  any  indications  that  the  loss  has 
decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine 
the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed 
the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortisation, if no impairment loss had been 
recognised.

Note 15. Intangible assets (continued) 

Goodwill impairment testing 
Goodwill relates to the acquisition of the food ingredients business in the USA. Consequently, the carrying amount of goodwill 
was allocated to the food ingredients CGU. 

The recoverable amount of goodwill has been determined based on a value-in-use calculation using cash flow projections 
for the food ingredients business in the USA. Cash flows beyond the five-year forecast are extrapolated using estimated 
terminal growth rates. 

Since the previous financial year, there has been considerable volatility in the economic environment as a result of COVID-
19.  Management  has  carefully  assessed  the  impact  of  COVID-19  and  the  implications  of  lower  economic  activity  on  its 
operations. Management has observed that there has been a significant impact in the performance of the food ingredients 
business in the USA. As such, management has impaired the carrying amount of goodwill in full. 

Accounting policy on 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. 

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

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (CGU) (or groups 
of CGUs) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. 

A CGU 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 CGU 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 CGU, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on 
disposal. 

Impairment of non-financial assets, including goodwill 
Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually 
for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other non-
financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount 
may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its 
recoverable amount. 

Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the 
present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to 
form a cash-generating unit. 

Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash generating units to which 
goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the directors to estimate the future cash flows expected 
to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future 
cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

Note 16. Trade and other payables (continued) 

Accounting policy for 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  and  other  payables  are  presented  as  current 
liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months. 

Accounting policy for Refund liability 

A refund liability is the obligation to refund some or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer and 
measured at the amount the Group ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer. At the end of each reporting 
period, the Group updates its estimates of refund liabilities for changes in expectations about the amount of refunds and 
recognise the corresponding adjustments as revenue (or reductions of revenue). 

Accounting policy for loyalty points programme 

The Group operates loyalty points programme which allows customers to accumulate points that can be redeemed for free 
products. The loyalty points give rise to a separate performance obligation as they provide a material right to the customer. 
A portion of the transaction price is allocated to the loyalty points awarded to customers based on relative stand-alone selling 
price and recognised as a contract liability until the points are redeemed. Revenue is recognised upon redemption of products 
by the customer. 

When estimating the stand-alone selling price of the loyalty points, the Group considers the likelihood that the customer will 
redeem the points. At the end of each reporting period, the Group updates its estimates of the points that will be redeemed 
and any adjustments to the contract liability balance are charged against revenue.

Accounting policy for Contract liabilities 
A  contract  liability  is  the  obligation  to  transfer  goods  and  services  to  a  customer  for  which  the  Group  has  received 
consideration  from  the  customer.  If  a  customer  pays  consideration  before  the  Group  transfers  goods  or  services  to  the 
customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract 
liability is recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract. 

Key estimates – Deferred revenue for customer loyalty points 

The Group operates loyalty points programme which allows customers to accumulate points that can be redeemed for free 
products. The loyalty points give rise to a separate performance obligation as they provide a material right to the customer. 
A portion of the transaction price is allocated to the loyalty points awarded to customers based on relative stand-alone selling

Note 18. Borrowings (continued) 

Accounting policy for Borrowings 

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in 
profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan 
facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be 
drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable 
that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised 
over the period of the facility to which it relates. 

Borrowings are removed from the consolidated statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract 
is  discharged,  cancelled  or  expired.  The  difference  between  the  carrying  amount  of  a  financial  liability  that  has  been 
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities 
assumed,  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  as  other  income  or  finance  costs.  Borrowings  are  classified  as  current  liabilities 
unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

Refer to note 26 for further information on financial instruments. 

Accounting policy for lease liabilities 
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities at the present value of lease payment to be 
made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any 
lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid 
under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain 
to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the assessment of lease term reflects the 
Group  exercising  the  option  to  terminate.  The  variable  lease  payments  that  do  not  depend  on  an  index  or  a  rate  are 
recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payments occurs. The present value 
of lease payments is discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if the rate cannot be readily determined, the 
Group's incremental borrowing rate. 

The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. After the commencement date, the 
amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. 

The amount of lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an 
index or rate, if there is a change in the Group's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value 
guarantee, or if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. 
When the lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right of use asset, 
or is recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right of use asset has been reduced to zero. 

The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short term leases that have a lease term 
of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option, and leases of low value assets. The Group recognises the lease 
payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Note 19. Leases (continued) 

Critical judgements in determining the lease term 

In  determining  the  lease  term,  management  considers  all  facts  and  circumstances  that  create  an  economic  incentive  to 
exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) 
are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated). 

For leases of motor vehicles, warehouse, and processing factory, the following factors are normally the most relevant: 

If  there  are  significant  penalties  to  terminate  (or  not  extend),  the  Group  is  typically  reasonably  certain  to  extend  (or  not 
terminate). 

If any leasehold improvements are expected to have a significant remaining value, the Group is typically reasonably certain 
to extend (or not terminate). 

Otherwise,  the  Group  considers  other  factors  including  historical  lease  durations  and  the  costs  and  business  disruption 
required to replace the leased asset. 

Most extension options in vehicles leases have not been included in the lease liability, because the Group could replace the 
assets without significant cost or business disruption. 

The lease term is reassessed if an option is actually exercised (or not exercised) or the Group becomes obliged to exercise 
(or not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised if a significant event or a significant change in 
circumstances occurs, which affects this assessment, and that is within the control of the lessee. No change or revise in 
lease terms during the financial year.

Description of provisions 
Provision for employee benefits represents amounts accrued for annual leave (AL) and long service leave (LSL). The 
current portion for this provision includes the total amount accrued for AL entitlements and the amounts accrued for LSL 
entitlements that have vested due to employees having completed the required period of service. The Group does not expect 
the full amount of AL or LSL balances classified as current liabilities to be settled within the next 12 months. However, these 
amounts must be classified as current liabilities since the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement 
of these amounts in the event employees wish to use their leave entitlement. 

The Company is required to restore the leased site of its Collagen Extraction Facility to their original condition at the end of 
the respective lease terms. A make good provision has been recognised for the estimated expenditure to be incurred to 
reinstate the premises. These costs have been capitalised as part of the right-of- use assets and are amortised over the 
shorter of the term of the lease and the useful life of the assets. 

The Directors valued the make good provision based upon a third-party estimate provided to the Company.

Note 20. Short-term provisions (continued) 

Accounting policy for 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 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. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. 

When  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 consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income net of any 
reimbursement. 

Provisions are measured at the present value or management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present 
obligation at the end of the reporting period. 

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 an interest expense.

Collateral Placement Agreement (CPA) 
On the 7 February 2018, the Company entered into a Controlled Placement Agreement (CPA) with Acuity Capital. On 13 
January 2020, Acuity Capital agreed to extend the expiry date of the CPA from 31 December 2019 to 31 January 2022. 
Furthermore, on 4 March 2020, the Company and Acuity Capital extended the CPA for an additional $5,000,000, taking the 
maximum value under the facility to $10,000,000. 

In addition to the above, the Company issued 5,500,000 additional collateral shares to Acuity Capital on 11 February 2020. 

On 20 April 2020, the Company announced that it has further utilised the CPA facility and raised a further $2,200,000 without 
issuing any additional share capital. The Company has fully utilised the CPA facility and has terminated the CPA with Acuity 
Capital effective immediately.

Capital Management 
The  Group  manages  its  capital  to  ensure  that  entities  in  the  Group  will  be  able  to  continue  as  a  going  concern  while 
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group's overall strategy 
remains unchanged from 2020. 

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the 
parent, comprising issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses. 

None  of  the  Group's  entities  are  subject  to  externally  imposed  capital  requirements.  Operating  cash  flows  are  used  to 
maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative 
outgoings. 

Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with its target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the 
risks associated with each class of capital. 

The working capital position of the Group was as follows:

Note 26. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The  Group's  activities  expose  it  to  a  variety  of  financial  risks:  market  risk  (including  foreign  currency  risk,  price  risk  and 
interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability 
of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. 

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The 
Board  adopts  practices  designed  to  identify  significant  areas  of  business  risk  and  to  effectively  manage  those  risks  in 
accordance with the Group's risk profile. This includes assessing, monitoring and managing risks for the Group and setting 
appropriate risk limits and controls. The Group is not of a size nor is its affairs of such complexity to justify the establishment 
of a formal system for risk management and associated controls. Instead, the Board approves all expenditure, is intimately 
acquainted with all operations and discuss all relevant issues at the Board meetings. The operational and other compliance 
risk management have also been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively.  

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 Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to 
manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. 

The Group's activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity 
prices and exchange rates. There has been no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which it 
manages and measures the risk from the previous period. 

The Group has also 10% free carried interest in Global Biolife Inc. (formerly Sed BioMed Inc.), a company incorporated in 
the State of Delaware, USA in which Mr Chan is a significant shareholder. 

Foreign currency risk 
The consolidated entity undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currency and is exposed to foreign currency 
risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations. 

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and 
cash flow forecasting. 

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

Price risk 
Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes 
in market prices. The Group does not presently hold material amounts subject to price risk. As such the Board considers 
price risk as a low risk to the Group.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 
31 December 2021 

Note 26. Financial instruments (continued) 

Interest rate risk 
The Company and the Group are exposed to interest rate risk as entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating 
interest  rates.  The  risk  is  managed  by  the  Group  by  maintaining  an  appropriate  mix  between  fixed  and  floating  rate 
borrowings. 

The Company and the Group’s exposures to interest rate in financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity 
risk management section of this note. 

Credit risk 
Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract 
obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. 

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. 
The Group 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 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 publicly available financial information and its own trading record 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.  Credit  exposure  is  controlled  by 
counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the risk management committee annually. 

The Group establishes an allowance for expected credit losses that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of 
trade and other receivables. 

● 

 Credit risk exposures 

The maximum exposure to credit risk is that to its alliance partners and that is limited to the carrying amount, net of any 
provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the consolidated 
financial statements. 

Credit  risk  related  to  balances  with  banks  and  other  financial  institutions  is  managed  by  the  Group  in  accordance  with 
approved  Board  policy.  Such  policy  requires  that  surplus  funds  are  only  invested  with  financial  institutions  residing  in 
Australia, where ever possible. 

● 

 Impairment losses 

The ageing of the Group's trade and other receivables at reporting date is disclosed in note 9. 

Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach 
to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, 
under  both  normal  and  stressed  conditions,  without  incurring  unacceptable  losses  or  risking  damage  to  the  Group's 
reputation. 

Ultimate  responsibility  for  liquidity  risk  management  rests  with  the  Board,  who  have  built  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 risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing 
facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and 
liabilities. 

Typically,  the  Group  ensures  that  it  has  sufficient  cash  to  meet  expected  operational  expenses  for  a  period  of  60  days, 
including  the  servicing  of  financial  obligations;  this  excludes  the  potential  impact  of  extreme  circumstances  that  cannot 
reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters. 

The financial liabilities of the Group include trade and other payables, contract liabilities, borrowings and lease liabilities as 
disclosed in the statement of financial position. 

All trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 30 days of the reporting date.

Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position where 
the consolidated entity currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and there is an intention to 
settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The net amount shows the impact on the 
consolidated entity's statement of financial position if all set off rights were exercised. 

Fair value of financial instruments 
Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value. Refer to note 1 for accounting 
policy on fair value measurement.  

Note 27. Fair value measurement 

Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorised within level 2 and level 3 
The Group selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to 
measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the 
asset or liability being measured. The valuation techniques selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the 
following valuation approaches:

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 27. Fair value measurement (continued) 

● 

● 

● 

 Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions 
for identical or similar assets or liabilities. 
 Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single 
discounted present value. 
 Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity. 

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the 
asset or liability, including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives priority to those 
techniques  that  maximise  the  use  of  observable  inputs  and  minimise  the  use  of  unobservable  inputs.  Inputs  that  are 
developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions that 
buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs for 
which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions 
are considered unobservable.

Note 30. Contingent liabilities 

Gara Group 

On September 27,2019, iGalen (a related company and a customer of the Group), filed an action against Gara Group, Inc. 
and others alleging breach of contract. This complaint stems from the Gara Group’s failure to provide services including 
product fulfillment, software development and maintenance of non-site platform which manages the Company’s back office 
and managing the Company’s social media sites. Gara Group filed a complaint against the Company for breach of contract. 

Since then, Gara Group has gone through changes in various sets of attorneys, cope with ongoing pandemic, has caused 
little to no progress in the case. Due to Gara Group moved operation office from California to Florida, they have filed again 
similar claims in Florida. Recently the parties have attempted to bring similar causes of action that are alleged in the Florida 
into the California case. Although these cases are distinct and have separate parties, the plaintiffs are attempting right now 
to combine the identical claims.  

The exposure to the Company always exists, however, management maintains its claims and anticipates recovering from 
Gara Group. It is too early in the case to determine amounts of recovery or exposure. 

ProImmune Company LLC ("Pro immune") 

The present lawsuit involves four claims brought by Proimmune against the Company for breach of four distinct contracts 
which seeks total damages of USD 2 million. The Company has completed the discovery phase of the litigation where after 
attempting  to  seek  dismissal  of  the  claims  brought  against  it,  the  Company  has  answered  the  complaint  of  ProImmune 
Company LLC and asserted its own counterclaims against ProImmune for breach of contract as well as one claim for breach 
of express warranty, both of which seeking monetary damages in excess of USD300,000 plus interest. 

With the completion of the discovery phase of the litigation, both sides have filed respectively their own motions for summary 
judgment  in  September  2021,  which  effectively  seeks  a  judgment  without  trial  on  either  sides’  respective  claims  and/or 
defences. Depending  on  the  court’s  workload  and  resources  available  in  the  current  pandemic  environment,  the  earliest 
judgement is expected sometime in the first half of 2022. 

At the date of this report, it is premature to estimate any liabilities for this case.  

ASIC 

The  Australian  Securities  and  Investments  Commission  (ASIC)  has  commenced  Federal  Court  proceedings  against  the 
Company on 5 August 2021. The proceedings relate to allegedly false and misleading statements with respect to Holista’s 
sanitiser  products  and  partnership  with  Global  Infection  Control  Consultants  (GICC),  which  are  said  to  have  been 
disseminated by the Company in the period from January 2020 to July 2020. ASIC claims that between April and July 2020 
the  Company  was  in  breach  of  its  continuous  disclosure  obligations. The  proceedings  also  alleged  that  Dr  Manicka,  the 
Company’s Chairman, Managing Director and CEO, breached his director’s duties to the Company by causing or permitting 
the Company to engage in the conduct complained of by ASIC.

The Company and its director have filed their respective concise statements on 23 November 2021 and 24 November 2021 
respectively; as per the Court’s granted extension of time to file. The Court also directed ASIC to provide all the relevant 
documents including transcripts pertaining to the claims in their concise statement of 4 August 2021 to the Company by 12 
January 2022 in which ASIC duly provided and the Company duly received it. The case management hearing listed on 1 
December 2021 was vacated. A mediation on this matter is to be scheduled on the first available date after 4 March 2022. 

On 7 January 2022, the Court has listed the case for mediation on 28 April 2022. 

At the date of this report, it is premature to estimate any liabilities for this case.  

The prosecution commenced by ASIC in relation with Directors, Ex-Directors, and Ex-Company Secretaries is coverable by 
the insurer of Director and Officers insurance policy.

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

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. 

All potential fully paid ordinary shares on issue would decrease the loss per share and are thus not considered dilutive.  

Note 39. Share-based payments 

Performance rights 
As approved by shareholders 9 January 2017, the Company issued 2,700,000 performance rights to Dr Rajen Manicka with 
non-market performance conditions attached. The performance conditions were not achieved on vesting date. Consequently, 
the share-based expenses previously recognised in relation to the performance rights were fully reversed.

Accounting policy for Share-based payments 
The  grant-date  fair  value  of  equity-settled  share-based  payment  arrangements  granted  to  holders  of  equity-based 
instruments (including employees) are generally recognised as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over 
the vesting period of the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which 
the  related  service  and  non-market  performance  conditions  are  expected  to  be  met,  such  that  the  amount  ultimately 
recognised is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the 
vesting date. 

For  share-based  payment  awards  with  non-market  conditions,  the  grant-date  fair  value  of  the  share-based  payment  is 
measured  to  reflect  such  conditions  and  there  is  no  true-up  for  differences  between  expected  and  actual  outcomes.  In 
determining the fair value of share-based payments granted, a key estimate and judgement is the volatility input assumed 
within the pricing model. 

The Company uses historical volatility of the Company to determine an appropriate level of volatility expected, commensurate 
with the expected instrument’s life.

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Our  responsibilities  under  those 
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our 
report.  We  are  independent  of  the  Company  in  accordance  with  the  auditor  independence  requirements  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's 
APES 110: Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 

As referred to Note 1 to the financial statements, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a 
going concern basis. The Group incurred a loss after tax of $1,357,034 and net cash outflow from operating activities 
of $1,676,068 for the financial year ended 31 December 2021, respectively. As at 31 December 2021, the Group 
had cash and cash equivalents totalling $1,213,093 and working capital of $2,422,134.  

The ability of the Group to continue as going concern is subject to the future profitability of the Group, the ability of 
management  to collect  the  receivables  and  sell  the  inventories.  In  the  event  that  the  Group  is  not successful  in 
commencing profitable operations, collecting receivables and selling the inventories, the Group may not be able to 
meet their liabilities as and when they fall due and the realisable value of the Group’s assets may be significantly 
less than book values. 

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.  

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
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. 

Key Audit Matters 

How the matters was addressed in the audit 

Revenue recognition  

For the financial year ended 31 December 2021, the 
Group’s  sales  revenue  amounted  to  $8,023,129 
(2020: $7,106,635). The Group earns revenue from 
different business streams, with each stream having 
differing  revenue  recognition  points  under  the 
Group’s revenue  recognition policies  (Note  4)  and 
Australian Accounting Standards.  

On the basis of the significance of the amount to the 
the 
consolidated 
processes used to determine the recognition point, 
we have considered revenue recognition as a key 
audit matter.

Inter alia, our audit procedures included the following: 

▪  Obtained a detailed understanding of each of the 
sources  of  revenue  and  the  related  systems 
processes for quantifying and recording revenue;  

▪  Reviewed the working papers of the component 
auditor  with  great care  who  audited  85%  of  the 
total revenue;  

▪  Evaluated  a  sample  of  contracts,  identified 
performance  obligations,  and  agreed  revenue 
amounts  to  the  records,  including  supporting 
billing system and bank records;  

▪  Performed cut-off procedures to ensure that the 
revenue is recognised in the correct period; 

▪  Assessed

statements. 

the 

Allowance  for  credit  losses  against  trade  and 
other receivables  

As  at  31  December  2021,  the  Group’s  trade  and 
accounts  receivable  gross  balance  amounted  to 
$4,204,820 (2020: $3,784,745). 

Trade and other 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 (Note 
9).  

The allowance for expected credit losses represents 
management’s  best  estimate  of  the  impairment 
losses  incurred  at  the  balance  sheet  date.  The 
Group  assessed  impairment  on  a  forward-looking 
basis and applied the simplified approach permitted 
by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses 
to  be  recognised  from  initial  recognition  of  the 
receivables.  As  at  31  December  2021,  the  Group 
recognised  allowance 
losses  of 
$2,409,680 (2020: 2,226,738) for its trade and other 
receivables.

Calculation  of  allowance  for  credit  losses  is  a 
complex  area  and  requires  management  to  make 
significant  assumptions  on  the  customer  payment 
behaviour  and  other  relevant  risk  characteristics 
such  as  historical  information  and  estimating  the 
level  and  timing  of  expected  future  cashflows.  On 
this basis, we identified provisioning allowance for 
expected credit losses as a key audit matter. 

Inventory valuation and existence 

As  at  31  December  2021,  the  Group’s  inventories 
(excluding stock-in-transit) amounted to $1,108,801 
(2020: $982,003).  

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net 
realisable value on a first-in, first-out basis for both 
raw materials and finished goods (Note 10). 

Inventory valuation and existence was identified as 
a  key  audit  matter  because  of  the  variety  and 
volume  of  inventory  items  which  are  managed 
across 4 warehouses in Malaysia and 1 warehouse 
in USA and the judgment applied in the valuation of 
inventory. 

Completeness of provisions 

As disclosed in Note 30 to the consolidated financial 
statements,  the  Group  has  on-going  litigations 
against certain third parties and is under regulatory 
review by ASIC.  

is  made 

for  claims 

A  provision 
for  alleged 
negligence and regulatory matters when there is a 
present obligation, as a result of a past event that 
gives  rise  to  a  probable  payment  and  when  the 
probability of the payment can be reliably estimated. 
The  provision  is  based  on  the  estimated  cost  of 
defending  and  settling  claims  and  regulatory 
matters.  

Determining  whether  to  provide,  and  if  so,  the 
amount  to  provide  involves  a  high  degree  of 
judgment and estimation uncertainty. On this basis, 
we  have  considered  completeness  of  provision  to 
be a key audit matter. 

Inter alia, our audit procedures included the following: 

▪  Assessed 

the 

corresponding 

inventory

component auditor and participated in inventory 
counts in USA via zoom.  

▪  Reviewed  the  working  papers  of  component

Other Information  

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in 
the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2021 but does not include the financial report and our 
auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly, we do not express any 
form of assurance opinion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information  and, in doing 
so,  consider  whether  the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent  with  the  financial  report  or  our  knowledge 
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If based on the work we have performed, we 
conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have 
nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair 
view under 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 ability of the Group 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  has  no  realistic 
alternative but to do so. 

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable 
assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted under 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 based on this financial report. 

As  part  of  an  audit  under  Australian  Auditing  Standards,  we  exercise  professional  judgement  and  maintain 
professional  skepticism  throughout  the  audit.  An  audit  involves  performing  procedures  to  obtain  audit  evidence 
about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. 

The  procedures  selected  depend  on  the  auditor's  judgement,  including  the  assessment  of  the  risks  of  material 
misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor 
considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view to 
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not to express an opinion on the effectiveness 
of the entity's internal control. 

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as 
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

An  audit  also  includes  evaluating  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of 
accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report. 

We conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on 
the  audit evidence obtained, whether a  material uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or conditions  that may  cast 
significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty 
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if 
such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained 
up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue 
as a going concern. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and 
whether  the  financial  report  represents  the  underlying  transactions  and  events  in  a  manner  that  achieves  fair 
presentation. 

We  obtain  sufficient  appropriate  audit  evidence  regarding  the  financial  information  of  the  entities  or  business 
activities  within  the  Group  to  express  an  opinion  on  the  financial  report.  We  are  responsible  for  the  direction, 
supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and 
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in Internal control that we identify during our audit. 

The Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements. 
We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding 
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought 
to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in 
the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore key audit matters. We describe these matters 
in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely 
rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse 
consequences  of  doing  so  would  reasonably  be  expected  to  outweigh  the  public  interest  benefits  of  such 
communication. 

Report on the Remuneration Report  

Opinion on the Remuneration Report  

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 31 December 2021. 

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Holista Colltech Limited for the year ended 31 December 2021 complies 
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Responsibilities 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report 
under section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration 
Report, based on our audit conducted under Australian Auditing Standards.

Corporate Governance Statement 

This Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 30 March 2022 and has been approved by the Board of the Company on that date.  

This Corporate Governance Statement discloses the extent to which the Company will, as at the date it is admitted to the official list of the ASX, follow the 
recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council in its publication Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations – 4th Edition 
(Recommendations). The Recommendations are not mandatory, however the Recommendations that will not be followed have been identified and reasons 
provided for not following them along with what (if any) alternative governance practices the Company intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation. 

The Company has adopted a Corporate Governance Plan which provides the written terms of reference for the Company’s corporate governance duties.  

Due to the current size and nature of the existing Board and the scale of the Company’s operations, the Board does not consider that the Company will gain 
any benefit from individual Board committees and that its resources would be better utilised in other areas as the Board is of the strong view that at this stage, 
the experience and skill set of the current Board is sufficient to perform these roles. Under the Company’s Board Charter, the duties that would ordinarily be 
assigned to individual committees are currently carried out by the full Board under the written terms of reference for those committees. 

The Company’s Corporate Governance Plan is available on the Company’s website at www.holistaco.com
