Letter from the Chair and Chief Executive Officer

We are pleased to present the Annual Report for IDT Australia Limited (“IDT”) for the year ended 30 June 2021. The Company has 
delivered on its stated goal of returning to profitability, booking its first operating profit since 2009. IDT has finished the year in a strong 
financial position and we are now continuing our focus on future strategic growth opportunities and sustainable profitability.

The year in review has presented some significant challenges associated with the global coronavirus pandemic. Throughout multiple 
Victorian lockdowns, IDT’s manufacturing operations and laboratories remained fully operational. The Board and Executive Team would 
like to sincerely thank all of IDT’s dedicated staff who worked tirelessly throughout what has been a very difficult but rewarding year. 

Financial Highlights

Financial highlights for the year are dominated by IDT’s return to operational profitability. The Company recorded a Net Profit After Tax of 
$2.1 million. This represents a year on year improvement of 209.6%. IDT’s revenue for the year of $16.9 million represents a year on year 
growth of 19.5%. The Company finished the year with a strong cash balance of $6.9 million.

COVID-19 Treatment and Vaccine Initiatives 

Despite multiple and protracted Victorian lockdowns, IDT’s current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) manufacturing operations and 
laboratories remained fully operational. IDT was called upon to assist the Australian Government with certain COVID-19 response 
activities in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

In August 2020, IDT made a formal submission to the Australian Government’s COVID-19 Vaccine and Treatment Manufacture and 
Supply Chain Request For Information (RFI). In March 2021, the Company announced that it was working with the Australian 
Government Department of Health to undertake a feasibility assessment regarding the potential use of IDT’s sterile fill and finish 
manufacturing facility to supplement Australia’s production capability for a COVID-19 vaccine. 

In June 2021, IDT announced that it was progressing discussions with the Victorian Government and Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical 
Sciences (MIPS) in relation to the Company potentially providing cGMP manufacturing services to progress the development of 
Australia’s first locally developed mRNA COVID-19 vaccine candidate. In July 2021, IDT made a submission to the Australian 
Government’s Onshore mRNA Manufacturing Capability: Approach To Market (ATM). In August 2021 the Company finalised a Letter 
Agreement with the Australian Government, Department of Health to bring IDT’s sterile manufacturing facility into a state of readiness to 
potentially provide COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing services.

IDT continues to progress discussions with the Australian Government, the Victorian State Government, Monash University, Australian 
National University and others in relation to the sovereign manufacture of COVID vaccines and other therapeutics. 

Australian Sovereign Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

IDT has continued to participate in discussions regarding critical dependencies in Australia’s pharmaceutical supply chain. The global 
pandemic has highlighted the sovereign risk associated with outsourcing the manufacture of essential medicines, as evidenced by the 
shortages of certain pharmaceutical products, including more recently vaccines. 

IDT has sterile fill and finish manufacturing facilities which can be immediately deployed. The Company is also one of Australia’s last small 
remaining molecule Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) contract developers and manufacturers, operating under the required cGMP 
regulations and as such we are aware of the need to retain these sovereign capabilities. IDT is advocating for Australia to revive and 
reinvigorate local capacity to bolster the Nation’s pharmaceutical supply chain. The Company will continue to be part of the debate and 
to lobby for increased pharmaceutical supply chain resilience.

IDT Is Continuing To Execute On Its Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Plan

IDT made further progress on its Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Plan. The Company has developed its own proprietary medicinal 
cannabis API and finished dose form products, several of which are now commercially available. 

In June 2021, the Company announced a commercial partnership with Clever Leaves Holding Inc. (NASDAQ: CLVR, CLVRW) for Clever 
Leaves to supply to IDT two varieties of bulk medicinal cannabis flower. IDT will package the flower in its cGMP certified facility and 
pending the successful completion of stability trials, the cGMP flower-in-bottle products will be launched through Australian distributors. 

For the year ahead, IDT will continue to expand its range of proprietary medicinal cannabis products and further establish the Boronia 
manufacturing campus as a centre of excellence for GMP medicinal cannabis product manufacturing.

IDT Annual Report 2021

Senior Executive Renewal

In June 2020, the Company appointed Ms Ancila Desai to the role of Chief Financial Officer and Joint Company Secretary. Ms Desai has 
quickly become a high performing member of IDT’s Executive Team with over 15 years of commercial experience, including senior 
finance roles at Metcash, Toll and Boost Juice. 

The Year Ahead

Looking forward, focus will be on delivering on the Company’s key strategic elements being: Re-establishing sterile manufacturing, 
playing a greater role in COVID-19 vaccines and other therapeutics, sovereign manufacturing, expanding the base contract development 
and manufacturing business, as well as making further progress on our Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Plan.

We will continue to build on this years’ financial momentum with the primary goal being to bring the Company back to sustained 
profitability. 

We thank shareholders for their continued support.

Review of Operations

Total revenue for the year was $16.9 million (which includes $0.9 million of JobKeeper receipts), an increase of $2.8 million on a year on 
year basis. As a consequence of this revenue improvement coupled with stronger controls in procurement and manufacturing, the 
business reported an increase of 209.6% in reported net profit / (loss) after tax. The full year operating profit after tax of $2.1 million is the 
Company’s first recorded operating profit since 2009.

Earnings per share were 0.9 cents, an increase of 1.7 cents for the year.

The Company was classified as an essential service and as such remained open and fully operational throughout the ongoing COVID-19 
crisis. During the year IDT assisted the Australian Government with certain COVID-19 response activities. In August 2021 the Company 
finalised a Letter Agreement with the Australian Government, Department of Health to bring IDT’s sterile manufacturing facility into a state 
of readiness to potentially provide COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing services.

IDT made several submissions to the Australian and Victorian Government during the year. In August 2020 IDT made a submission to the 
COVID-19 Vaccine and Treatment Manufacture and Supply Chain Request For Information (RFI). In June 2021 IDT announced that it was 
progressing discussions with the Victorian Government and Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS) in relation to the 
development of Australia’s first locally developed mRNA COVID-19 vaccine candidate. In July 2021 IDT made a submission to the 
Australian Government’s Onshore mRNA Manufacturing Capability: Approach To Market (ATM). 

During the year IDT made submissions and provided input to several Government Committees to advance the case for increased 
Australian sovereign pharmaceutical manufacturing. The Company stands at the ready to assist with Australia’s critical pharmaceutical 
supply chain dependencies and has a set of capabilities and skill sets that are unique in the Australian pharmaceutical industry. 

The Company continued to make good progress executing on its Medicinal Cannabis Manufacturing Plan. Several proprietary medicinal 
cannabis API and finished dose form products have been developed and are now commercially available. IDT has partnered with Clever 
Leaves Holding Inc. (NASDAQ: CLVR, CLVRW) to create two varieties of cGMP flower-in-bottle products which will be launched in the 
Australian market pending the successful completion of stability trials.

IDT Annual Report 2021

Financial position 

At 30 June 2021, the Company had cash reserves of $6.9 million. This cash balance is further supported by an unutilised facility of  
$2.5 million with the National Australia Bank Ltd, which is next due for renewal on 31 July 2022. These cash reserves and debt facility 
are available to support the Company’s execution of strategies and projects and to extend production and manufacturing capabilities.

Results

The net result of operations after applicable income tax was a profit of $2.1 million (2020: $1.9 million loss).

Dividends

No dividends were paid during the financial year. There are no dividends or distributions recommended or declared for payment to 
members.

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.

Matters Subsequent to the End of the Financial Year

Throughout the course of the financial year the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to present challenges to day-to-day life as well as 
business and economic activity. The financial statements have been prepared based upon conditions existing at 30 June 2021, which 
included the impact of COVID on the business at that time. The Company considers the ongoing Government restrictions such as the 
Victorian and other State Government’s rolling lockdowns and the present wave of COVID-19 Delta variant cases Australia wide to be 
non-adjusting post balance sheet events and accordingly the financial effects post year end of COVID-19 have not been reflected in the 
financial statements at 30 June 2021. The scale and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its associated business and economic 
disruptions remain uncertain as at the date of this report. However they may have an impact on the Company’s 2022 financial year 
earnings, cash flow and financial position. 

In June 2021, IDT announced that it was advancing discussions with the Victorian Government and Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical 
Sciences (MIPS) regarding potentially providing cGMP manufacturing services for the production of MIPS’ Receptor Binding Domain 
mRNA COVID-19 vaccine candidate. As the time of writing this report, these discussions are advancing well and continuing. On 16 July 
2021, IDT made a submission to the Australian Government’s Approach to Market: Proposals to establish an onshore mRNA manufacturing 
capability (ATM). The Australian Government made it clear in the ATM submission documents that the ATM process was a competitive 
process being run in parallel with the Government’s commercial discussions with entities external to the ATM. It was also made clear that 
the Government may make no decision at all with regard to the ATM. 

Opportunities for IDT to provide further COVID-19 manufacturing services are being pursued. Further information has been provided in 
Likely Developments below.

In August 2021, the Company finalised a Letter Agreement with the Australian Government, Department of Health to bring IDT’s sterile 
manufacturing facility into a state of readiness to potentially provide COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing services.

There has not been any other matter or circumstance occurring subsequent to the end of the financial year that, to the Company’s 
knowledge, has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations, results of the operations or the state of affairs of 
the Company. 

Likely Developments

Likely developments include the Company progressing discussions with Monash University and the Victorian Government regarding 
Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences’ (MIPS’) Receptor Binding Domain mRNA COVID-19 vaccine project whereby IDT will 
potentially provide cGMP manufacturing services for the project. IDT is also standing-by for any developments from the Australian 
Government in regards to the Approach To Market: Proposals to establish an onshore mRNA manufacturing capability.

IDT continues to engage with the Government and industry to promote increased levels of sovereign vaccine and pharmaceutical 
manufacturing in Australia.

IDT Annual Report 2021

Remuneration 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 17 November 2020, the Company received 95.15% support on its 2020 
Remuneration Report.

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; and

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.

Share-based Compensation

From time to time, Directors, Executive Management and selected staff members may be invited to participate in the Employee Share 
Plan (ESP) whereby fully paid ordinary shares of the Company are issued at market value and funded by an interest free limited recourse 
loan from the Company, which is repayable at any time during employment or within 90 days of an employee ceasing employment with 
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 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 16 Leases and 
measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable 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 2021, the Company incurred a profit after tax of $2.1 million and held cash reserves of  
$6.9 million, 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. The Company is not reliant on renewal of bank facilities in July 2022 from a 
going concern perspective. 

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.

21 

IDT Annual Report 2021

1.4 

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

For all except goodwill and indefinite life intangibles, 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 value 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.

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.

In preparing the financial statements, management has considered the impact of COVID-19 on the various balances, 
including the carrying values of trade receivables and accounting estimates for which cash flow forecasts are required to 
be prepared such as the recoverable amount of non-current assets.

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 (being property, plant and equipment and finite life intangibles assets)

The Company applies AASB 136 Impairment of Assets to test the carrying value of non-current assets and impairment. 
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.

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

Notes To and Forming Part of the Financial Statements continued

Income taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and tax losses as management considers that it 
is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. The carrying amount of 
deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer 
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. The measurement 
of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the 
Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 

Provision for impairment of inventories

The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of the 
provision is assessed by taking into account the usage of each item, product expiry date and other factors that affect 
inventory obsolescence.

Share-based payments

The issuance of shares to employees are at market rates and funded by interest-free limited recourse loans to the 
Company. The fair values of such arrangements utilises the Black-Scholes pricing model and therefore includes 
elements of judgment and estimate in determining certain input factors such as an estimate of share price volatility. 

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 of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are 
relevant to its operations and effective for the current year. New and revised Standards and amendments thereof and 
Interpretations effective for the current year that are relevant to the Company include annual improvements to accounting 
standards and AASB Interpretation 23 “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments”.

1.10  Reclassification of Contract Assets

The Company classifies billable work-in-progress not yet invoiced as Contract Assets. The amount at 30 June 2021 
is nil (2020: $32,000) and has been restated from Inventory to Contract Assets in the Statement of Financial Position. 
This does not impact on the Profit or Cashflows.

1.11  Reclassification of Other Creditors

In the year ended 30 June 2021, the Other Payables balance associated with Premium funding was recorded as 
Borrowings. The comparative amount from 30 June 2021 of $579,000 has been restated from Other Payables to 
Borrowings in the Statement of Financial Position. In the year ended 30 June 2021, the cashflows associated with the 
Premium funding was recorded in the Financing activities and the comparative amount has been restated from operating 
cashflows to financing cashflows. There was no impact of the restatement on Profit.

Key Accounting Policies

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). 

It must also be probable that the economic benefits of the transaction will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue can 
be measured reliably.

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).

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 1 June 2021. 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. 

AASB 16 Leases provides the lessee with the choice of whether to recognise short-term or low value leases on the balance 
sheet. Under the Company’s policy, photocopiers and printers are treated as short term or low value leases, which qualify for the 
low value lease exemption.

IDT Annual Report 2021

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 

  40 years

• 

Plant & Equipment 

  3-15 years

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

For all except goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets, 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 value 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.

The Company is considered as one cash-generating unit (CGU) for impairment testing purposes (there are nil indefinite life 
intangible assets). The Company has prepared fair value less cost to dispose model (level 3) for the purpose of impairment 
testing as at 30 June 2021, using a discounted cash flow model based on the five-year forecast. Future cash flows were 
discounted at an after-tax rate of 15%. Based on the recoverable amount of the CGU exceeding its aggregate carrying amount 
at 30 June 2021 there was no impairment charge.

a) 

Internally generated Intangible Assets

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. 

An internally generated intangible asset arising from development is recognised as a non-current asset where all of the 
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. 

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

Assets with finite lives are subject to amortisation and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. 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 may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive 
income for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is 
the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are 
grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units), other than 
goodwill that is monitored at the segment level. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash generating units are 
allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to cash generating units, and then to reduce the 
carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.

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 2021 the Company has gross carried forward tax losses amounting to $17.3m (2020: $19.8m) and a further 
$12.3m (2019: $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.

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

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 $6.7 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 
foresee any increased borrowings or consequentially a material sensitivity to 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

Directors, Executive Management and selected staff 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.

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.

(i)  Basic Earnings per Share - Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of 
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 June 2021, IDT announced that it was advancing discussions with the Victorian Government and Monash Institute of 
Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS) regarding potentially providing cGMP manufacturing services for the production of MIPS’ 
Receptor Binding Domain mRNA COVID-19 vaccine candidate. As the time of writing this report, these discussions are 
advancing well and continuing. On 16 July 2021, IDT made a submission to the Australian Government’s Approach to Market: 
Proposals to establish an onshore mRNA manufacturing capability (ATM). The Australian Government made it clear in the ATM 
submission documents that the ATM process was a competitive process being run in parallel with the Government’s commercial 
discussions with entities external to the ATM. It was also made clear that the Government may make no decision at all with 
regard to the ATM. 

Opportunities for IDT to provide further COVID-19 manufacturing services are being pursued. Further information has been 
provided in Likely Developments below.

In August 2021, the Company finalised a Letter Agreement with the Australian Government, Department of Health to bring IDT’s 
sterile manufacturing facility into a state of readiness to potentially provide COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing services.

There has not been any other matter or circumstance occurring subsequent to the end of the financial year that, to the 
Company’s knowledge, has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations, results of the operations or the state 
of affairs of the Company.

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

RReeppoorrtt  oonn  tthhee  AAuuddiitt  ooff  tthhee  FFiinnaanncciiaall  RReeppoorrtt  

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of IDT Australia Limited (the “Company”) which comprises the statement of 
financial  position  as  at  30  June  2021,  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: 

•

Giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Company’s  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2021  and  of  its  financial
performance for the year then ended; and

• 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 & Ethical Standards Board’s 
APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  (including  Independence  Standards)  (the  Code)  that  are 
relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in 
accordance with the Code. 

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

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

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of 
the  financial  report  for  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.

Carrying value of non-current assets 

Our procedures included, but were not limited to: 

Refer Note 9 Property, plant and equipment, 
and 1.7 Critical accounting estimates and 
judgements.  

As at 30 June 2021 the Company’s carrying 
value of Property, Plant and Equipment 
totals $16.7 million. The assessment of the 
recoverable amount of Property, Plant and 
Equipment requires management to 
exercise significant judgement in identifying 
indicators of impairment and, when 
required, in determining the assumptions 
and estimates involved in preparing the Fair 
Value less Costs to Dispose  (“FVLCD”) 
valuation model, including: 

•

•

Forecasts of revenue and Earnings
before Interest and Tax (“EBIT”) for
the years 2022 to 2026;

Long-term growth rate applied
within the FVLCD valuation model;

• Weighted Average Cost of Capital
(“WACC”) rate utilised within the
FVLCD valuation model; and

•

Terminal growth rate.

Management has applied judgement to 
determine their best estimate for 
assumptions within the FVLCD valuation 
model, including internal and external data 
as inputs, and factored into their 
assumptions any continued anticipated 
opportunities and challenges associated 
with COVID-19.

terminal growth rate relative to historical
performance, growth opportunities and

Other Information 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Directors’ Report 
which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, 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. 

When  we  read  any  other  information,  if  we  conclude  that  there  is  a  material  misstatement  therein,  we  are 
required  to  communicate  the  matter  to  the  directors  and  use  our  professional  judgement  to  determine  the 
appropriate action.  

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 ability of the Company 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 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 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 fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

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   to  continue  as  a  going  concern.  If  we  conclude  that  a  material

IDT Annual Report 2021 

44

 
Independent Audit Report to the Members continued

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 to cease to continue as a going concern.  

•

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, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards 
applied.  

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.

Opinion on the Remuneration Report 

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in 8 to 11 of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 
2021.  

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of IDT Australia Limited, for the year ended 30 June 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 
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.
