Letter from the Chair and Chief Executive Officer

The year in review has been a challenging, but ultimately a rewarding time for IDT Australia Limited. In May 2018, the Company received 
a Warning Letter from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This was a very hard blow; and perhaps one of the darkest 
chapters in IDT’s history, certainly from a global regulatory perspective. The Company set itself the goal of remediating the Warning Letter, 
whilst at the same time running the base business, and with an objective to successfully completing an FDA re-inspection within twelve 
months. This goal was very aggressive. Many companies faced with FDA Warning Letters either close their operations, or take several 
years to complete remediation activities, or both.

In late May 2019, the FDA returned to re-inspect IDT’s facilities and we have just received formal correspondence from the FDA stating 
that they have closed-out the inspection and determined that the inspection classification of IDT’s facility be restored to Voluntary Action 
Indicated (“VAI”) from Official Action Indicated (“OAI”). This is a positive development for IDT and vindicates all of the hard work IDT’s 
quality, operations and infrastructure teams, as well as our external consultants have put in to achieve this goal. The Company will 
continue to meet the commitments made to the FDA and we are standing-by for what we hope to be a positive outcome on the status 
of the Warning Letter. 

Despite the significant headwinds arising from IDT’s focus and effort on the Warning Letter remediation activities, the Company  
continued to progress its other stated goal of strengthening and expanding the foundations of IDT’s business. In May 2018, IDT  
applied to the Department of Health - Office of Drug Control for a medicinal cannabis manufacturing licence in its own right. In May  
2019 IDT announced that it had secured its own Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Licence.

Medicinal cannabis manufacturing is a perfect strategic fit for IDT. The Company has a long history in GMP manufacture of both Active 
Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API’s) and Finished Dosage Forms and decades of experience working with botanically derived compounds. 
Being vertically integrated in our ability to produce both API’s and Finished Dosage Forms puts the Company in a strong position to 
capture the opportunities that will arise in the rapidly evolving medicinal cannabis market. IDT’s GMP manufacturing credentials are 
another key differentiator on the global stage, with GMP manufacturing requirements becoming increasingly important as the cannabis 
industry expands from its lesser regulated origins into more regulated markets.

IDT already has the critical equipment installed, commissioned and validated, with little or no facility modifications required. IDT’s 
manufacturing suites and operations are designed to allow for the safe processing of large volumes of solvent and the Company is 
currently developing manufacturing processes which have the potential to convert tonnage quantities of medicinal cannabis biomass. 
This capability puts IDT in a unique position in the Australian scene, and ahead of many global participants.

IDT finished the year with a strong cash balance of $9.5million, having returned $1.644 million equity to shareholders through an  
On Market Share Buy Back and a Small Parcel Share Buy Back.

On a year on year basis, IDT’s operating revenue was down 9% to $12.13 million. A contributing factor to this reduction in revenue  
was the impact the FDA Warning Letter had on IDT’s ability to secure new work, but also the additional workload the Warning Letter 
remediation efforts had on IDT’s ability to execute work in hand. Additionally, the timing of the receipt of certain medicinal cannabis 
licensure limited the amount of development and commercial work able to be conducted during the reporting period.

As highlighted in the Director’s Report, the underlying loss for the year is slightly less than the previous year after excluding material  
one off transactions, such as FDA Warning Letter remediation expenses and loss on divestment of surplus manufacturing equipment.

Looking ahead the Company’s focus will be on putting the FDA Warning Letter behind us and growing the business. Now that all of the 
requisite licensure is in place, a key element of IDT’s growth strategy will be to further expand our capabilities and product offerings in 
GMP medicinal cannabis manufacture. We believe that IDT is well placed to become a centre of excellence in GMP medicinal cannabis 
manufacturing on the global stage. 

We thank shareholders for their continued support.

IDT Annual Report 2019

Report of the Directors – 30 June 2019 
(Including Remuneration Report)

The Directors present their report on the financial report of the company for the year ended 30 June 2019.

The following persons were Directors of IDT Australia Limited during or since the end of the financial year:

Alan Fisher  

Hugh Burrill  

Graeme Kaufman  

Mary Sontrop 

The Directors held office during the whole of the financial year and since the end of the financial year.

Principal Activities

The principal activities of the Company through the course of the year were the supply of products and provision of research  
and development and other technical services within the pharmaceutical and allied industries.

Review of Operations

The table below, which includes non-IFRS information, isolates key one time transactions from the reported results to show that  
the underlying profitability is slightly improved when considered on a year on year basis:

(2,835)

Whilst total revenue was down $1.307 million on a year on year basis, income earned from fee for service research and development 
services and manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients increased by $0.406 million, 4%.

IDT divested its portfolio of non-specialised generic products in April 2018, which together with continued increased competitiveness  
in the U.S. market for Temozolomide, contributed to a reduction in finished dose form revenues totalling $1.382 million.

In May 2019, IDT announced that the Australian Government Department of Health - Office of Drug Control granted the Company  
a Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Licence under the Narcotic Drugs Act 1967. The licence allows IDT to manufacture and perform 
activities relating to such manufacture (such as package, supply, store, destroy and transport) extracts and tinctures of cannabis  
resin in the Company’s GMP facilities. This license was complemented by the issuance of the Company’s first medicinal cannabis 
manufacturing permit in August 2019. To date IDT has secured two strategic manufacturing and product development partnerships  
in medicinal cannabis and the Company has the manufacturing facilities and requisite licensure in place to capitalise on this emerging 
market in the coming years.

IDT received a Warning Letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2018 and a remediation action plan was 
presented to the FDA in July 2018. The plan contained a comprehensive list of activities directed at fully addressing the concerns 
expressed by the FDA. The Warning Letter remediation plan and audit readiness activities included engagement of external contractors 
and consultants as well as the efforts of many members of IDT’s quality, operations and infrastructure teams. It is estimated that the 
Warning Letter remediation expenses incurred through 2019 totalled $1.357 million plus $0.216 million capital expenditure (2018: nil).

IDT Annual Report 2019

Report of the Directors – 30 June 2019  
(Including Remuneration Report) continued

The FDA re-inspected IDT’s facilities and quality systems during the period 20-31 May 2019. In August 2019 IDT received official 
correspondence from the FDA that this inspection is now closed and the FDA determined that the inspection classification of IDT’s 
facilities be restored from Official Action Indicated (OAI) to Voluntary Action Indicated (VAI), and that further correspondence, including 
details for the closeout of the Warning Letter will be forthcoming.

As the Warning Letter included no enforcement action (such as a U.S. import ban), performance of IDT’s existing manufacturing and 
development contracts were for the most part unaffected; however as a fee for service contract manufacturer, having a Warning Letter  
in place created uncertainty which the Company believes influenced IDT’s ability to win and execute new projects.

Following divestment of the non-specialised generic products, surplus tableting equipment was monetised and finance leases repaid, 
resulting in a onetime loss on disposal of $0.530 million. The disposal of this surplus tableting equipment will however deliver future 
operating cost savings through avoidance of future finance lease commitments, depreciation and equipment maintenance whilst also 
freeing manufacturing space for more productive activities. Cessation of proprietary product development activities associated with  
these divested non-specialised generic products also resulted in a material reduction in IDT’s product development expenditure and  
the estimated value receivable under the Federal Government’s R&D Tax Concession Incentive.

Through an On Market Share Buyback and Small Parcel Share Buy Back, $1.644 million equity was returned to shareholders.

The Company has cash reserves of $9.497 million as at balance date, further supported by an unutilised facility of $2.5 million with  
the National Australia Bank Ltd next due for renewal on 31 July 2020. These cash reserves and debt facility are available to support  
the Company execute strategies and projects to extend production and manufacturing capabilities.

After the prior financial year’s divestment of CMAX and the non specialised generic product portfolio, a strategic and operational review  
of business operations was conducted and it was concluded that the Company held cash reserves exceeding projected requirements, 
leading to the implementation of a Small Parcel Buy Back and an On Market Buy-Back within the framework of the “10/12 limit” as 
defined by the Corporations Act 2001, returning $1.644 million to shareholders.

Results

The net result of operations after applicable income tax was a loss of $6.083 million (2018: $16.979 million).

Dividends

No dividends were paid during the financial year. There are no dividends or distributions recommended or declared for payment  
to members, but not yet paid, during the year.

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs

In the opinion of the Directors, there have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the financial year  
not otherwise disclosed in this report or the financial statements.

IDT Annual Report 2019

Matters Subsequent to the End of the Financial Year

In a letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Director of the FDA’s Division of Drug Quality Office of Manufacturing  
Quality Office of Compliance, dated 23 August 2019, IDT was advised that the FDA had closed out its inspection of the Company’s 
facility which occurred over the period 20-31 May 2019. Furthermore, the FDA has determined that IDT’s facility inspection classification 
be restored from Official Action Indicated (OAI) to Voluntary Action Indicated (VAI) and have confirmed that further correspondence, 
including details of the close out for the Warning Letter will be forthcoming.

On 26 August 2019, the Australian Government Department of Health – Office of Drug Control granted IDT its first Medicinal Cannabis 
Manufacturing Permit under the Narcotic Drugs Act 1967. This permit allows IDT to manufacture and store cannabis extract in quantities 
specified by the permit and supports the Company’s strategies to advance GMP Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing.

Other than the above, there has not been any matter or circumstance arising since the end of the financial year that has significantly 
affected or may significantly affect the operations, results of the operations or the of the Company.

Likely Developments

With Federal licensure from the Office of Drug Control in place and with commissioned equipment capable of processing large volumes  
of biomass in site, IDT is well placed to exploit opportunities in the emerging local and international medicinal cannabis markets.

Environmental Regulations

IDT Australia Ltd is subject to environmental regulations and other licenses in respect of its manufacturing facilities located in Boronia, 
Victoria. The Company monitors changes in its regulatory environment and ensures ongoing compliance with new requirements.  
It is subject to regular inspections and audits by responsible State and Federal authorities and by local and international clients.  
The Company considers it has complied with all necessary environmental regulations throughout the year ended 30 June 2019  
and no related issues have arisen since the end of the financial year to the date of this report.

Corporate Governance Statement

The Company complies with the Australian Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, 3rd edition  
(ASX Principles). The Company’s Corporate Governance Statements and Policies, including disclosures required by the ASX Principles,  
may be viewed on the Company’s website, www.idtaus.com.au/investors/corporate-governance/.

Indemnification of Officers

During the financial year, the Company paid an insurance premium to insure Directors and Officers (D&O) of the Company. Under the 
terms of this policy the premium paid by the Company is not permitted to be disclosed. 

The liabilities insured are legal costs which may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings which may be brought against  
D&O in their capacity as D&O of the Company, and any other payments arising from liabilities incurred by D&O in connection with  
such proceedings, except for where such liabilities arise out of conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by D&O or improper use  
by D&O of their position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else or to cause detriment to the Company.

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified  
or agreed to indemnify a D&O of the company against a liability incurred.

Report of the Directors – 30 June 2019  
(Including Remuneration Report) continued

Renumeration Report

The Directors of the Company are pleased to present the following Remuneration Report which forms part of the Report of Directors 
prepared in accordance with s300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

The Remuneration Report has been audited as required by s308 (3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 and sets out remuneration 
information for the Company’s key management personnel who have authority and are responsible for planning, directing and  
controlling the Company’s activities, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company  
and the broader remuneration policies and philosophy adopted by the Board.

There were no significant changes to remuneration policies during the year.

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee advises the Board on remuneration policies and practices generally, making specific 
recommendations on the remuneration framework and other terms of employment for Executive Directors, Non-Executive Directors  
and Senior Executives, including incentives, share ownership plans and the relationship between remuneration policy and Company 
performance.

At the last Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 23 October 2018, the Company received 67% support on its 2018 Remuneration 
Report, short of the required 75%. As a first strike had been recorded at the prior year’s AGM, a resolution was put to the AGM to 
consider whether an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) should be convened for the purpose of appointing persons to the position  
of Director. This resolution was not carried and accordingly an EGM was not required.

Directors’ Remuneration

IDT has a small and focussed Board which works closely with Executive management. Fees and payments to Directors reflect the 
demands made on, and the responsibilities of, the Directors. Directors’ fees are reviewed annually by the Remuneration and Nomination 
Committee, considering comparative remuneration data for the industry and size of the Company to attract Directors with relevant 
expertise in our industry as well as Australian capital markets.

The Non-Executive Directors’ annual base fee is currently $70,000 and the Chair $120,000, inclusive of superannuation contributions, 
as required under the Australian superannuation guarantee legislation.

Total Non-Executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, periodically referred for approval  
by shareholders. The current maximum aggregate Directors’ fee pool for Non-Executive Directors is $400,000.

Executive Remuneration

Remuneration packages are set at levels intended to attract, retain and motivate high quality executives to manage the Company’s 
operations and are linked to the Company’s financial and operational performance. The Company is committed to adhering to  
Corporate Governance Standards for remuneration of executives.

The framework of executive remuneration and terms of employment of the CEO are reviewed annually by the Remuneration and 
Nomination Committee. Other executive remuneration is reviewed by the CEO with oversight of the Remuneration and Nomination 
Committee having regard to performance against personal and company objectives established at the beginning of the year and  
relevant comparative information. Independent expert advice is taken where necessary.

Remuneration and other key terms of employment for Key Management Personnel (KMP) are formalised in service agreements. 
Major provisions of these agreements include the following fixed and performance based elements:

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

base salary plus statutory employer contributions to the superannuation fund of the employee’s choice and statutory leave entitlements

short term performance incentives payable as a cash bonus, based on achievement of both company-wide and individual 
performance objectives, established at the beginning of the year. Depending on assessed performance, the CEO may receive  
up to 50% of his base salary as a short term performance incentive whilst other KMP are eligible in the range of 15-20%

long term incentives are via invitation to participate in the Company’s Loan Funded Employee Share Plan (ESP)

a KMP may be terminated at the Company’s discretion by giving 3 months’ written notice

for employment to be terminated at the discretion of the KMP, 3 months’ written notice is required

in the case of serious misconduct, KMP forgo termination entitlements other than payment of applicable base salary, statutory  
leave and superannuation entitlements to the date of termination.

IDT Annual Report 2019

Share-based Compensation

From time to time, Executive Management and Directors may be invited to participate in the Employee Share Plan (ESP) whereby fully paid 
ordinary shares of the Company are issued at the market value at the date of issue and funded by an interest free limited recourse loan from 
the Company, which is repayable at any time or within 90 days of an employee’s termination.

Grants within the framework of the ESP are determined by the CEO together with the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and are 
subject to approval of the Board.

Amounts disclosed for emoluments relating to these shares are the assessed fair values at issue date determined using a Black-Scholes 
pricing model considering the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield  
and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the arrangement.

Other staff may be invited to participate in the allocation of up to $1,000 value of shares per year, granted for no consideration and 
escrowed for three years whilst participants remain employees of the Company.

Notes To and Forming Part of the Financial Statements

1 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are outlined in this section and have been 
consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

1.1 

Statement of Compliance

These financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 
2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and comply with International Financial Reporting Standards 
and other requirements of the law.

For the purposes of preparing the financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.

1.2 

Basis of Preparation 

These financial statements have been prepared under the basis of historical cost, except for certain financial instruments, 
intangible assets and land and buildings that are measured at fair value. 

Historical cost is generally based on fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services, being  
the price that would be received in an orderly transaction at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is 
directly observable or estimated using another technique. 

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset considers the Company’s ability to generate economic benefits 
through use of the asset in its highest or best use or by selling it through an orderly transaction.

In estimating the fair value of an asset or liability, the Company considers the characteristics market participants would 
take into account when pricing the asset or liability at measurement date. Fair value has been used in these financial 
statements except for transactions within the scope of AASB 2 Share Based Payments, AASB 117 Leases and 
measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realiseable value in AASB  
102 Inventories or fair value less cost to dispose in AASB 136 Impairment of Assets.

For financial reporting purposes fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree  
to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value 
measurement in its entirety, described as follows:

• 

• 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can 
access at the measurement date;

Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or 
liability, either directly or indirectly; and

• 

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

All amounts are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise noted.

1.3 

Going Concern Basis

For the year ended 30 June 2019, the Company incurred a loss after tax of $6.083 million and held cash reserves of 
$9.457 million, after distributing $1.644 million funds to shareholders through on market buy back and small parcel buy 
back, which is sufficient to fund planned strategic initiatives, capital and other development projects for at least the 12 
month period from the date of this report. 

Having carefully assessed the Company’s budget and forward forecasts, including cash flow forecasts which reflect 
forward sales orders received from customers as well as available funding facilities, the Directors believe the Company 
will continue to operate as a going concern and therefore it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going 
concern basis contemplating continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of 
liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

20 

IDT Annual Report 2019

1.4 

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

Non-Current Assets are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is an indication the asset may be 
impaired. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of 
the impairment loss. 

In testing for impairment, the recoverable amount of the Company’s Property Plant and Equipment is determined using a 
fair value less cost to dispose approach (excess earnings methodology). This is based on discounted cash flows using a 
fair value less costs of disposal approach and independent valuations or insured replacement cost.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to 
its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss immediately after identification 
and the asset is derecognised if no future economic benefits are estimated from use or disposal. 

1.5 

Change in Accounting Policy

The Company has adopted new and revised Australian Accounting Standards issued by the AASB which are mandatory 
to apply to the previous reporting period and are detailed in Note 1.9. Disclosures required by these Standards have 
been included in this financial report on the basis they represent significant change in information from that previously 
made available.

There have been no other significant changes in accounting policies during the reporting period.

1.6 

Foreign Currency Translation

Transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency are recognised at the rates of exchange 
prevailing at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign 
currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at that date. 

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settlement of such transactions and translation at period end 
exchange rates of foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss  
and Other Comprehensive Income.

1.7 

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

Preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgements that may affect  
the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management continually evaluates estimates and 
judgements based on historical experience and other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, 
including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity.

The following critical judgements have been made in application of the Company's accounting policies and have the 
most significant effect on amounts recognised in the Company’s financial statements.

Valuation of non-current assets

The Company applies AASB 136 Impairment of Assets to test the carrying value of non-current assets. Judgement  
is applied to make estimates of future cashflows to support assessment of the appropriateness of the carrying value. 
Criteria considered include anticipated future sales prices, market size and expected share, future exchange rates and 
the discount rate. 

In making these judgements, the Company makes reasonable and supportable assumptions to represent 
management's estimate of the conditions that will exist over the useful life of the asset. Amongst other factors the 
Company evaluates technical feasibility, the cost to complete the project, existence of an attractive commercial market, 
potential launch dates and sales expectations to conclude on the value of expected future economic benefits which 
would be expected to flow to the entity in order to calculate discounted cashflows.

Balanced estimates of these criteria have been made but key sensitivities could include more competitive market 
conditions which could result in higher than expected discounting required to achieve targeted market share.

Notes To and Forming Part of the Financial Statements continued

At any time should the estimated value of future economic benefits relative to the asset’s carrying value be considered 
insufficient relative to net book value, the Company would recognise impairment in accordance with AASB 136 
Impairment of Assets.

1.8 

Rounding of Amounts

The company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 
2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to the 
"rounding off" of amounts in the financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off  
in accordance with that Class Order to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar.

1.9 

Application of New and revised Accounting Standards 

The Company has adopted all new and revised accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian 
Accounting Standards Board (AASB) as are relevant to its operations and which are effective for the current year. 

The following accounting standards become effective for the first time in the reporting period:

• 

• 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments, replaces AASB 139 Financial Instruments and requires companies to raise a 
provision for potential credit loss based on historical losses incurred. As the Company does not have a history of 
uncollectible balances no additional provision is required and there is no impact from adopting the new Standard,

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, replaces AASB 118 Revenue. The Company considers its 
existing revenue recognition practices comply with the requirements of AASB 15 and accordingly application of this 
new Standard does not impact amounts recognised in the Company’s financial statements. The Company has two 
key types of arrangements with Clients; 1) Fee for Service Revenue generated in accordance with a Scope of 
Works agreed with clients before project commencement and recognised over the term of the project as specific 
performance obligations are completed (i.e. over time), 2) Manufacturing activities, particularly manufacture of Active 
Pharmaceutical Ingredients, conducted based on Supply Agreements and Purchase Orders received from clients. 
Revenue from these activities is recognised after product has been released by Quality Assurance and shipped in 
accordance with client instructions (i.e. point in time).

1.10  New and Revised Accounting Standards on issue but not yet effective 

AASB 16 Leases becomes effective for periods commencing 1 July 2019 and introduces a comprehensive model for 
identification of lease arrangements. The distinction between operating and financial leases is removed and replaced by 
a model where a right of use asset and a corresponding liability is recognised for all leases other than short term leases 
and leases of low value assets. As the Company currently reports one finance lease and has seven further operating 
leases of low value assets, management does not consider adoption of these new guidelines will have material impact 
on the reported financial results of the Company.

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable / receivable on the current period’s taxable income / (loss) 
based on the notional income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences 
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and unused tax losses.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

The Company incurs eligible expenditure which supports a R&D Tax Incentive Claim, refundable by the Australian Government at 
43.5% for entities with a tax loss and revenues less than $20 million. There are no unfulfilled conditions or other contingencies in 
relation to this incentive. This receivable balance is accounted for as a current tax asset and income tax expense / (benefit).

Trade receivables represent amounts receivable relating to the provision of goods and services pursuant to a valid purchase 
order or contract for product or services. Receivables are recognised at the full value receivable and do not require re-
measurement because they are due for settlement within 60 days of invoice date. 

Accrued revenue reflects progress completion and work performed but not yet invoiced on client projects.

After initial measurement, the collectability of receivable balances is reviewed on an ongoing basis and a provision raised if 
collection in full is no longer considered probable. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. The Company 
does not have a history of collection delays, defaulted balances or client dispute and accordingly does not consider a provision 
for expected credit losses is currently necessary.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value with the cost determined on a first-in-first-out basis. Net 
realisable value reflects the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion  
and costs necessary to make the sale.

Subsequent to initial measurement, balances held in inventory are reviewed at least annually and a provision raised where future 
use is no longer considered probable, principally due to reasons of obsolescence or product dating.

Freehold land and buildings are shown at revalued amounts being the fair value (level 3) at date of revaluation less subsequent 
depreciation for buildings. The most recent fair value measurement by independent valuers was 19 February 2018. The valuation 
conforms to Australian Valuation Standards and was calculated based on the fair value of the land and depreciated replacement cost  
of the buildings. As revaluations are performed regularly, carrying amounts do not differ materially from those that would be determined 
using fair values at the end of each reporting period. 

The revaluation increase arising on the revaluation of land and buildings is accumulated in the revaluation reserve within equity. 
Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are recognised against revaluation reserve directly in equity; all other 
decreases are to be recognised in profit or loss.  

Plant and equipment, including Right of Use Assets, are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment 
adjustments which may have been identified. The cost of non-current assets constructed or developed by the company includes the 
costs of all materials used in construction, direct labour on the project and an appropriate proportion of directly attributable variable and 
fixed overheads.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, other than land, over their estimated useful lives, net of their 
residual values, using the straight-line method, as follows:

•  Buildings 

• 

Plant & Equipment 

40 years

3-15 years

IDT Annual Report 2019 

27

 
Notes To and Forming Part of the Financial Statements continued

Estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any 
changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

Plant is regularly overhauled through an ongoing cyclical maintenance program. Routine operating maintenance, repair costs and minor 
renewals are charged as expenses as incurred.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or where no future economic benefits are expected to arise 
from continued use. Any gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and 
the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the profit or loss.

Impairment of property plant and equipment

Carrying amounts are reviewed at least annually or whenever there is an indicator the asset’s fair value may be impaired. In assessing the 
asset’s fair value, future cashflows are estimated and discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate reflecting current 
market estimates of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset tested. If this calculated recoverable amount is less than the 
carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognised immediately.

The Company has prepared fair value less cost to dispose models (level 3) for the purpose of impairment testing as at 30 June 2019, 
using a discounted cash flow model based on the five-year forecast. Future cash flows were discounted at an after-tax rate of 15%.

following conditions can be demonstrated:

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

technical feasibility of completing the project that it will be available for use or sale

intention to complete the intangible asset and use it or sell it

the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits for the Company

availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development, and

the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the development of the asset.  

28 

IDT Annual Report 2019

The amount initially recognised for internally generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date 
the asset first met the recognition criteria listed above. Development expenditures that do not meet all of these criteria are 
recognised in profit or loss in the period in which incurred.  

Development costs previously recognised as an expense may not be recognised as an asset in a subsequent period.  

Subsequent to initial recognition, internally generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation 
from the date the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are 
reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any change accounted for on a prospective basis.  

b) 

Impairment of Intangible Assets

Carrying amounts are reviewed at least annually or whenever there is an indicator the asset’s fair value may be impaired.  
In assessing the asset’s fair value, future cashflows are estimated and discounted to their present value using a post-tax 
discount rate reflecting current market estimates of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset tested. If this 
calculated recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognised immediately.

Key Accounting Policies

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the  
assets are recovered or liabilities settled. The relevant tax rate is applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable 
temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences 
arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to temporary 
differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect 
either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets will only be recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. In addition to the above deferred tax 
assets recognised, the Company has further unrecognised tax losses relating to prior period tax losses.

As at 30 June 2019 the Company has gross carried forward tax losses amounting to $19.0m (2018: $14.4m) and a further 
$12.3m (2018: $12.3m) capital losses which have not been recognised as assets in these financial statements.

The provision for employee entitlements represents annual leave, vested long service leave and an estimate of the future value  
of long service leave which has not yet vested but is expected to be payable to employees.

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave 
when it is probable that settlement will be required and they can be reliably measured.

Liabilities recognised in respect of short term employee benefits are classified as current liabilities and measured at their nominal 
values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Liabilities recognised in respect of long term 
employee benefits are classified as non-current liabilities and measured at the present value of the estimated future outflows to 
be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date.

During the year 2,632,046 (2018: 2,425,814) ordinary shares were issued within the rules of the IDT Australia Limited Employee 
Share Plan. 961,626 (2018: 6,120,798) shares were forfeited because the Limited Recourse Loans were not repaid, due to 
former employees electing not to repay the Limited Recourse Loan within 90 days of cessation of employment, including 
3,600,000 shares issued to the former Managing Director forfeited during 2018.

Following divestment of CMAX and the non specialised generic products conducted in the prior financial year and completion  
of a strategic and operational review of business operations it was concluded that the Company held cash reserves exceeding 
projected requirements and consequently excess cash reserves have been returned to shareholders through:

• 

• 

a Small Parcel Buy Back was transacted on 13 November 2018 whereby ‘less than marketable parcels of shares’ of 
value of less than $500 were eligible to be bought back by the Company at 15.5 cents per share. Under this Small 
Parcel Buy Back, 659,381 shares were bought back for total consideration plus costs of $0.111 million; reducing the 
number of registered shareholders by 598 (30%).  

an On Market Share Buy Back within the framework of the “10/12 limit” as defined by the Corporations Act 2001  
is in place, where the Company may buy back up to 10% of Issued Capital for a period of 12 months commencing  
10 October 2018. Between 1 November 2018 and 29 January 2019, 9,118,668 shares were purchased for 
consideration of $1.533 million, average 16.8 cents per share, representing 37% of the available On Market Share  
Buy Back capacity.

The Company has nil commitments for future capital expenditure outstanding as at 30 June 2019 (2018: nil).

Key Accounting Policies

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Company has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are 
classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised as Right to Use Assets at fair value at the lease’s inception, or if 
lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. 

Leases classified as operating leases and are recognised as lease expense on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial risks impacting the Company’s activities fall into three categories:

a)  market risk – foreign exchange and interest rate

b)  credit risk 

c) 

liquidity risk

a)  Market risk

111,500

In order to minimise the impact of currency fluctuation it is Company policy to transact in Australian dollars wherever 
possible. From time to time the Company also transacts in foreign currencies, particularly Euro and US dollars, which  
can give rise to foreign exchange risk as exchange rates fluctuate.  

At reporting date the Company has $9.497 million Cash Reserves held in its operating bank account and short term bank 
deposits. Forward cashflow forecasts do not project use of the bank debt facilities. Therefore the company does not forsee 
any increased borrowings or consequentially a material sensitivity from interest rates.

b)  Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the 
Company. Credit risk is closely managed and the Company has procedures to deal with credit worthy counterparties. 
Customer credit worthiness is reviewed on an ongoing basis and exposure to any one customer is monitored. Potential 
credit loss is regularly reviewed and assessed and a provision for expected credit losses would be raised if there was any 
evidence the Debt was no longer collectible.

The Company does not have a history of defaulted balances nor does it carry a material level of overdue debtor balances.

c)  Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities of the Company and is the risk that the company is not able to pay its financial 
liabilities as when they fall due. The ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors 
which has established a framework for management of the Company’s requirements over time through continuous 
monitoring of historical and anticipated cash flows and scenario analysis. The Company manages liquidity risk by 
maintaining cash reserves and reserve borrowing facilities.

Rolling 18 month cashflow forecasts are prepared each month. Strategic planning also includes liquidity considerations  
and based on current strategies, no funding shortfalls have been identified.

In addition to funds on deposit, the Company has $2.5 million undrawn banking facilities.

Key Accounting Policies

Executive managers and Directors may be offered shares in the Company at the current market value at the date of issue, 
funded by an interest free limited recourse loan from the Company. Grants within the framework of the ESP are determined by 
the CEO together with the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and are subject to approval by the Board. 

Amounts disclosed for emoluments relating to these shares are the assessed fair values at issue date determined using a 
Black-Scholes pricing model taking into account the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying 
share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the arrangement.

IDT Annual Report 2019

Notes To and Forming Part of the Financial Statements continued

The ESP provides an annual value of up to $1,000 of shares may be issued to eligible employees for no consideration. The 
value of shares issued is recognised in the income statement as employee benefit costs at the time the shares are granted.  
Such shares may not be sold until the earlier of three years after issue or cessation of employment with the Company. 

In all other respects ESP shares rank equally with other fully-paid ordinary shares on issue.

the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary  

  shares outstanding during the financial year.

(ii) 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.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

In formal correspondence from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Director of the FDA’s Division of Drug Quality Office 
of Manufacturing Quality Office of Compliance, dated 23 August 2019, IDT was advised that the FDA had closed out its 
inspection of the Company’s facility which occurred over the period 20-31 May 2019. Furthermore, the FDA has determined that 
IDT’s facility inspection classification be restored from Official Action Indicated (OAI) to Voluntary Action Indicated (VAI) and have 
confirmed that further correspondence, including details of the close out for the Warning Letter will be forthcoming.

On 26 August 2019, the Australian Government Department of Health – Office of Drug Control granted IDT its first Medicinal 
Cannabis Manufacturing Permit under the Narcotic Drugs Act 1967. This permit allows IDT to manufacture and store cannabis 
extract in quantities specified by the permit and supports the Company’s strategies to advance GMP Medicinal Cannabis 
Manufacturing.

Other than the above, no matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly affect, or 
may significantly affect the results of the operations of the Company.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the members of 
IDT Australia Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of IDT Australia Limited (the “Company”), which comprises the 
statement  of  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2019,  the  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other 
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the 
year  then  ended,  and  notes  to  the  financial  statements,  including  a  summary  of  significant 
accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration. 

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

(i)

giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its
financial performance for the year then ended; and

(ii)

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report. We are independent of the 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  confirm that the independence  declaration required by the  Corporations Act 2001, which  has 
been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as 
at the time of this auditor’s report. 

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

Key Audit Matters 

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

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

Other Information 

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the 
information included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, 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 we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, 
based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of 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 in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of 
the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether 
due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability 
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using 
the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or 
to cease operations, or have 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 in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement  when  it  exists.  Misstatements  can  arise  from  fraud  or  error  and  are  considered 
material  if,  individually  or  in  the  aggregate,  they  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  influence  the 
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:   



Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain
audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from  error,  as 
intentional  omissions,
involve  collusion, 
fraud  may 
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

forgery, 

 Obtain  an  understanding  of internal control  relevant to the audit  in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.





Evaluate  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

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 Company’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 Company’s to cease to continue as a going concern.

44 

IDT Annual Report 2019



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 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.  

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 the 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 pages 8 to 13 of the Report of the Directors’ 
for the year ended 30 June 2019.  

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of IDT Australia Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2019, 
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  in  accordance  with  section  300A  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in 
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
