CHAIRMAN’S AND  
CEO’S REPORT
DAVID WILLIAMS CHAIRMAN
JOHN SHARMAN CEO
WELL POSITIONED FOR THE FUTURE 
Medical Developments International Limited. (“MDI”) (ASX: MVP) delivered a Net Profit after Tax of $875,000 for the year 
ended 30 June 2014.
In August 2013, the Board declared a 2 cent fully franked dividend which was paid in October 2013. No further dividends 
were paid during the year.
Trading for the six months ended 30 June 2014, represents a significant improvement to the trading performance of the six months 
ended 31 December 2013. The business faced a number of challenges in our respiratory division during the first half.  As a result 
of these negative impacts we took immediate action to reduce our overheads and improve efficiencies. The second half delivered 
an EBIT growth of 169% compared with H1FY14 results (H2FY14: $565,000: H1FY14 $210,000). More importantly a number 
of initiatives in our Respiratory business are beginning to deliver sales growth. Combined with our Penthrox® initiatives and new 
markets coming on stream we expect FY15 to be a much better year in terms of delivering profit growth.
We have made excellent progress in the approval process for Penthrox® in Europe. Our regulatory dossier and Marketing 
Authorisation Application was submitted and accepted by the MHRA in November 2013. In January 2014, MDI received responses 
from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) which included a number of additional questions and 
points for clarification. MDI submitted its responses to these questions in August 2014. If MDI’s Marketing Authorisation Application 
is granted, Penthrox® will be approved for sale in the United Kingdom, France, Belgium and Ireland during 2014.  
The approval of our Space Chamber Plus® range of respiratory devices in the USA is a significant achievement. We have 
added products from our range of respiratory masks and our portable nebuliser to our USA approved products and we are 
in detailed discussions with a number of potential partners who have the capability to generate meaningful sales into the 
USA respiratory device market.

2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSREVIEW OF
OPERATIONS
PHARMACEUTICALS
During the year MDI completed its regulatory dossier and 
used it to submit applications to have Penthrox® approved 
for sale in a number of countries including the UK, France, 
Belgium, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Israel and Russia.  
Since the beginning of FY11 MDI has invested heavily in 
building its clinical data base and Regulatory Dossier. We 
have directly and indirectly assisted, completed and or 
finalised the following clinical studies: 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
 A randomised, double blind, multi-centre, placebo 
controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 
methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) for the treatment of acute 
pain in patients presenting to an Emergency Department 
with minor trauma, conducted in the UK Emergency 
Departments (Nottingham University Hospitals NHS 
Trust), Nottingham, UK;
 A randomised, double-blind, single centre, placebo-
controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy 
of methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) for the treatment of 
procedural pain in patients undergoing a bone marrow 
biopsy procedure - Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, 
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia;
 A phase I, double-blind, double-dummy, randomised, 
placebo- and positive-controlled, 3-way crossover, thorough 
QT/QTc study to evaluate the effect of a supratherapeutic 
single dose of methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) on cardiac 
repolarisation in healthy male and female subjects in 2013 - 
Burnet Institute, Victoria, Australia;
 Effects of Penthrox® (methoxyflurane) as an analgesic 
on cardiovascular and respiratory function in the pre-
hospital setting - Western Australia Ambulance Service, 
Western Australia, Australia;
 Patient-controlled analgesia with inhaled methoxyflurane 
versus conventional endoscopist-provided sedation

The Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Other clinical trials are planned which may open up new areas 
of use for Penthrox®. During the year we have directly and 
indirectly assisted commencement of the following studies:
• 
• 
 A psychomotor function study at Royal Adelaide Hospital 
which will determine if Penthrox impairs the cognitive 
ability of patients to drive or operate machinery; and
 An active comparative trial in Singapore with the 
Singapore Emergency Ambulance Service comparing the 
effectiveness of Penthrox and intramuscular Tramadol. 
COMMERCIALISATION
SOUTH AFRICA
Since 2010, MDI has been working with its business partner 
to obtain registration for the sale of Penthrox® in South Africa.  
In June 2014, we received approval to sell Penthrox® in South 
Africa. We expect South Africa will be a significant market for 
Penthrox® when we commence sales activities in FY15. 
USA
We have begun the process of reviewing the necessary 
steps to get Penthrox® approved for sale in the USA. We 
expect to progress this approval process once we have 
achieved registration in Europe.
RUSSIA
We have been working on our Russian Registration Dossier 
to have Penthrox® approved for sale In Russia for more 
than two years. The Russian Registration Dossier has been 
reviewed by experts and application lodged with the Ministry 
of Health for Russia. We expect the process of approval will 
take at least 12 months.
EUROPE
MDI is negotiating with several marketing partners to 
represent us in various European markets.  
EASTERN EUROPE AND MIDDLE EAST
Internationally, our Eastern European business performed 
below expectations with sales falling 58%. This is mainly 
due to the political unrest in the region and we expect this 
business to recover in FY15. Our Middle East Penthrox® 
business grew by 55% and is showing good signs of 
continued strong growth.  
4
 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSNEW ZEALAND
Our New Zealand business grew by 49%. Following on 
from Penthrox being approved for reimbursement in New 
Zealand hospitals we appointed new distributors to grow 
our Penthrox business in New Zealand in December 2013. 
Penthrox® can now be used in all hospitals in New Zealand 
and is reimbursed by the New Zealand government, which 
represents a significant opportunity for growth. We expect 
FY15 to deliver further good growth in this market.
AUSTRALIA
Domestically, sales to Ambulance fell 16% during the year 
due to a change in stocking policy. Sales in the last two 
months of FY14, and the first two months of FY15 confirm 
that sales have recovered and we expect to record growth 
in our Ambulance business in FY15.   
MEDICAL DEVICES: RESPIRATORY
AUSTRALIA
Overall our Australian respiratory business was down 53%. 
In Australia the cancellation of a supply contract with GSK 
reduced revenue by circa $1.0 million (year on year), and the 
merger between Symbion and EBOS significantly reduced sales 
for respiratory devices. Our business with Symbion is expected 
to recover and new initiatives with other partners are beginning 
to deliver sales growth. We expect sales to our Australian 
business to recover and deliver strong growth in FY15.
USA
During the year we received FDA approval to sell our range 
of Space Chamber Plus® devices and we made our first 
sales into the USA market. Since the initial FDA approval 
we have added products from our range of masks and our 
portable nebuliser, which can now also be sold in the USA.  
Additional products are in the final stages of being submitted 
for approval including our “Combination Space Chamber & 
Mask” products and our new “anti-static” Compact Space 
Chamber Plus products. We expect the full range of our 
respiratory products to be approved for sale during FY15.  
Our initial assessment of the USA market is that there are 
approximately 20 million space chamber devices sold each 
year. Our products are amongst the world’s best and our 
ambition is to win significant market share over the next 
three years.
EUROPE
During the year we registered and received NHS approval 
for reimbursement of our Combination Space Chamber & 
Mask range of products to complement our existing Space 
Chamber Plus® range of devices in the UK. We also signed 
distribution deals with partners in Italy and Greece and 
delivered our first products into those markets and also 
made our first sales into Belgium and the Netherlands. We 
expect further significant improvements in our European 
Respiratory Device business during FY15.
NEW ZEALAND
Our New Zealand business suffered its first real contraction 
for many years during H1FY14 due to an unusually mild 
asthma season. We are pleased to announce H2FY14 sales 
grew 167% compared to H1FY14, and 20% greater than 
for the corresponding H2FY13 sales. We expect our New 
Zealand business to continue to perform strongly in FY15.
ASIA
We have increased our presence and marketing efforts 
throughout Asia. Sales into this region grew 47% year on 
year and we expect further growth in FY15.
OTHER
We now have established distribution capabilities in the 
UK, Canada, Germany, Italy, Greece, Belgium, Holland, 
Luxembourg, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Singapore, New 
Zealand, UAE and Malaysia. We are expecting to add to this 
network in the near term.
MEDICAL DEVICES: OTHER
Sales of our Medical Devices (non-respiratory) grew 36% 
during the year. Most of the growth is attributed to the 
introduction of new products to our range and an increased 
sales and marketing effort. 
VET
Our Vet business grew 45% during the year and is showing 
signs of further strong growth.  Our increased sales efforts, 
the expansion of some of our international customers and 
the fall in the Australian dollar helped our export business 
into Europe.  We expect our European business to continue 
to grow during FY15.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
MDI announced in July 2012 that we had launched a 
significant research initiative with the CSIRO aimed at 
5
2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSREVIEW OF
OPERATIONS
improving the productivity and reducing the cost of our 
pharmaceutical manufacturing business. We have begun the 
final stage of constructing our commercial scale plant which 
we expect to be fully operational during 2015. If successful 
this initiative will deliver significant production cost benefits 
and valuable intellectual property to MDI.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
MDI continues to make a significant investment in 
developing its internal product development capabilities. 
During the year, MDI developed and/or launched: 
PENTHROX®
•  New 1.5ml Penthrox® product.
ASTHMA MEDICAL DEVICES
•  Space Chamber Plus® autoclavable;
•  Space Chamber Plus® Combination Pack (3 sizes).
OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES
•  Oxygen Face Masks and tubing kits;
•  Oxygen tubing;
•  Tourniquet;
•  Guedel airways (Multi packs);
•  Emergency Medical Consumables.
OPERATIONS
OPERATING EXPENSES
During the year, the Company invested heavily in our 
regulatory, product development, sales, marketing and 
research and development teams. The investment in 
clinical studies, research and development and product 
development has been capitalised to intangible assets 
where appropriate. The capital expenditure on clinical 
studies required to build our regulatory dossier has largely 
been completed and is not expected to be a material cash 
investment in FY15.
We expect our R&D tax concession refund for FY14 to be 
circa $290,000.
DIVIDEND
No dividends are declared.
OUTLOOK
Our strategy to introduce Penthrox® to new markets 
around the world is progressing well. With the completion 
of the clinical trials required to build a “world class” 
Regulatory Dossier, we have moved into the next phase of 
growing our Penthrox® business which involves identifying 
appropriate business partners in markets around the world 
and submitting marketing applications / requests to sell 
Penthrox® in these new markets.
We are well on the way to achieving results and have used 
our Regulatory Dossier to submit applications to have 
Penthrox® approved for sale with regulatory authorities in 
the UK, France, Ireland, Belgium, Singapore, Israel, Saudi 
Arabia and Russia. In FY15 we expect to submit a number 
of additional applications to have Penthrox® available for 
sale in a number of new countries.
Our focus on improving efficiencies in all aspects of 
our business whilst growing sales will continue and our 
project with the CSIRO relating to the manufacturing of 
Methoxyflurane has the potential to transform the cost base 
of our products.
While FY14 has been a challenging year for our company, 
we are confident the future is extremely bright. We 
expect FY15 to deliver significant positive results for all 
our stakeholders in the business and in particular for 
shareholders, employees, customers and patients who 
benefit from the products we make.

 an Audit and Risk Committee (Mr M Johnston, Mr M Van 
Ryn (who resigned on 28 July 2014) and David Williams 
(joined on 28 July 2014); and
• 
 a Remuneration and Nominations Committee (Mr D 
Williams and Mr A McCallum).
All other functions of the Board will be dealt with by the 
Board as a whole. However, from time to time, the Board 
may determine to establish specific purpose 
sub-committees to deal with specific issues.
SHARE TRADING
The Board has adopted a share trading policy for Directors 
and officers of the company. The Policy regulates dealings 
by Medical Developments International Limited (“MDI”) 
directors, officers and employees in MDI securities.
The standards and conduct adopted by the Board reflect, 
where applicable, the standards for Corporate Governance 
as provided in the ASX Corporate Governance Principles 
established by the ASX Corporate Governance Council. 
The following sections summarise MDI’s compliance 
with these principles. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, 
the Directors believe MDI complies with the Corporate 
Governance Council’s recommendations.  
PRINCIPLE 1: LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS 
FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT
Duties of the Board and of management are clearly 
segregated and stated in the company’s corporate 
governance manual. The Board’s role and responsibilities 
are also summarised above. Senior executives are evaluated 
by the remuneration committee annually, based on the 
company’s performance and specific key performance 
indicators set for the respective senior executive. 
PRINCIPLE 2: STRUCTURE THE BOARD 
TO ADD VALUE
The directors believe that the composition, size and 
commitment of the Board will allow it to effectively discharge 
its responsibilities and duties. To this end, currently four 
of the five Board members are independent under the 
definition of the Council. Furthermore, while the Chairman, 
Mr Williams is not considered independent under the Council 
definition and thus recommendation 2.2 is not followed, the 
Board does not believe that Mr Williams being a substantial 
shareholder has had or will have any adverse impact on the 
conduct of MDI’s affairs or the representation of the interests 
of other shareholders. Furthermore, the roles of Chairman 
and CEO are not exercised by the same individual.

2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSCORPORATE  
GOVERNANCE 
STATEMENT
To further ensure Directors can fulfil their obligations, the Board 
has adopted a policy, contained in the company’s corporate 
governance manual that allows directors to take independent 
professional advice, at the expense of the company.
The Board has established a Remuneration and Nominations 
committee as suggested by recommendation 2.4.
The company has no formal process for evaluating the 
performance of its board, committees and individual 
Directors. As such, recommendation 2.5 is not followed; 
the Board has instead used regular informal assessments to 
evaluate its performance.
The information required by recommendation 2.6 regarding 
the skills, experience and expertise of the individual Directors 
is included in the Director’s Report and is not repeated here.
PRINCIPLE 3: PROMOTE ETHICAL AND 
RESPONSIBLE DECISION-MAKING
The Board actively promotes ethical and responsible 
decision-making.  
RECOMMENDATION 3.1
Companies should establish a code of conduct and disclose 
the code or a summary of the code as to the practices 
necessary to maintain confidence in the company’s integrity; the 
practices necessary to take into account their legal obligations 
and the reasonable expectations of their stakeholders; and the 
responsibility and accountability of individuals for reporting and 
investigating reports of unethical practices.
The Company has established and disclosed (in its 
Induction Handbook) its Code of Conduct in accordance 
with this recommendation. The Code of Conduct applies 
to Directors, managers and employees of the Company. 
The Code of Conduct is reviewed as necessary to ensure it 
reflects the high ethical standards of conduct necessary to 
maintain confidence in the Company’s integrity.
The Board has implemented and disclosed a share 
trading policy covering Directors, senior executives and 
employees. The directors are aware of their responsibility 
to communicate any share trading to the company, and the 
company notifies the ASX of any share transactions within 
the allowed five business days.
The Board has adopted a policy for trading in Medical 
Developments International securities by Directors 
and employees. The purpose of this policy is to define 
the circumstances in which Directors, employees and 
any associates are permitted to deal in securities. This 
policy was updated in 2010 and disclosed on the ASX 
in December 2010 in accordance with the ASX Listing 
Rules. The updated policy addresses each of the ASX 
requirements including provisions relating to the prohibition 
of trading by directors and senior management in the 
Company’s securities during defined periods.
RECOMMENDATION 3.2
Companies should establish a policy concerning diversity 
and disclose the policy or a summary of that policy. The 
policy should include requirements for the board to establish 
measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and 
for the board to assess annually both the objectives and 
progress in achieving them.
The Company has established and disclosed (on its website) 
its Diversity Policy in accordance with the recommendation. 
RECOMMENDATION 3.3
Companies should disclose in each annual report the 
measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set 
by the board in accordance with the diversity policy and 
progress towards achieving them.
The Board believes in the value of diversity but does not 
believe that given the size of the company and the resources 
available to it, that formalising measurable objectives for 
achieving gender diversity is appropriate. As the company 
grows, the Board will continue to monitor the Diversity Policy 
including formalising measurable objectives for achieving 
gender diversity.
RECOMMENDATION 3.4
While there is currently no gender diversity on the Board, the 
Board is made up of individuals from various professions, 
cultures, and backgrounds.
The Company’s workforce is comprised of three distinct 
employee groups:
1.   Employees engaged in senior management roles which 
constitutes 28% of the workforce;
2.   Employees engaged in middle management roles which 
constitutes 10% of the workforce; and
3.   Employees engaged in tier three level activities such as 
production, sales, and administration type roles which 
constitutes 62% of the workforce.
16
 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSPRINCIPLE 4: SAFEGUARD INTEGRITY 
IN FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Board has ensured there is a structure in place to 
independently verify and safeguard the integrity of the 
company’s financial reporting.
The Board has established an audit committee comprised 
of two non-executive Directors. While this is less than the 
three required by recommendation 4.2, the Board believes 
a three member committee is impractical given the overall 
size of the Board and that the current composition of the 
committee allows it to discharge its mandate effectively.  
The Committee’s Charter is contained within the company’s 
Corporate Governance manual.
PRINCIPLE 5: MAKE TIMELY AND 
BALANCED DISCLOSURES
The company has put in place mechanisms designed 
to ensure compliance with the ASX Listing rules and 
Corporations Act requirements regarding continuous 
disclosure. The corporate governance manual details the 
company policy and all management staff are made aware 
of it. The company is committed to ensuring all market 
participants have equal access to information and so 
updates and presentations continue to be provided to the 
ASX and posted on the company website. If a presentation 
contains information that is not public and may have a 
material effect on the share price, the material is sent to the 
ASX prior to the presentation being made.
PRINCIPLE 6: RESPECT THE RIGHTS  
OF SHAREHOLDERS
The Board of Directors has adopted a policy to ensure that 
shareholders are informed of all major developments affecting 
MDI in a timely manner. In accordance with this policy, 
information is communicated in a variety of ways including:
• 
• 
• 
• 
 A half-yearly report containing summarised financial 
information and a review of operations;
 An annual report with detailed financial information and 
review of the operations of the company and future outlook;
 Updates on operations and developments lodged with 
the ASX;
 A comprehensive website carrying the latest news and 
containing an investor relations section which includes 
corporate governance information and an archive of 
periodic reports and ASX releases.
CORPORATE  
GOVERNANCE 
STATEMENT
The external auditor is required to attend the Annual General 
Meeting and is available to answer questions. Furthermore, 
the company encourages shareholders to attend the Annual 
General Meeting and ask questions.
PRINCIPLE 7: RECOGNISE AND 
MANAGE RISK
The management of risk is considered by the Audit and Risk 
Committee. The Board determines whether management 
has developed and implemented a sound system of risk 
management and internal control.
The Chief Executive Officer and Group Financial Controller 
state to the Board in writing that there is a sound system of 
risk management and internal compliance and control within 
the company and that this system operates effectively in 
ensuring that financial reporting risks are managed such that 
the declaration required by s.295A of the Corporations Act 
can be provided.
PRINCIPLE 8: REMUNERATE FAIRLY 
AND RESPONSIBLY
The Board has established a Remuneration committee 
to ensure Directors and executives are remunerated 
appropriately. The committee reviews remuneration 
packages at least annually in the light of market conditions 
and the performance of the company. The Remuneration 
report contained within the Director’s Report includes 
considerable detail on the current remuneration of directors 
and executives including how performance conditions for 
performance related payments are chosen and assessed.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The company’s principal activities during the course of the 
financial year were the manufacture and distribution of a 
pharmaceutical drug and medical and veterinary equipment.  
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
FY14 was a year of significant investment in the future 
of our business. The investment in our regulatory, sales, 
manufacturing, product development and research teams 
was significant.
PHARMACEUTICALS
During the year MDI completed its regulatory dossier and 
used it to submit applications to have Penthrox® approved 
for sale in a number of countries including the UK, France, 
Belgium, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Israel and Russia.  
Since the beginning of FY11 MDI has invested heavily in 
building its clinical data base and Regulatory Dossier. We 
have directly and indirectly assisted, completed and or 
finalised the following clinical studies: 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
 A randomised, double blind, multi-centre, placebo 
controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 
methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) for the treatment of acute pain 
in patients presenting to an Emergency Department with 
minor trauma, conducted in the UK Emergency Departments 
(Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust), Nottingham, UK;
 A randomised, double-blind, single centre, placebo-
controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy 
of methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) for the treatment of 
procedural pain in patients undergoing a bone marrow 
biopsy procedure - Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, 
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia;
 A phase I, double-blind, double-dummy, randomised, 
placebo- and positive-controlled, 3-way crossover, thorough 
QT/QTc study to evaluate the effect of a supratherapeutic 
single dose of methoxyflurane (Penthrox®) on cardiac 
repolarisation in healthy male and female subjects in 2013 - 
Burnet Institute, Victoria, Australia;
 Effects of Penthrox® (methoxyflurane) as an analgesic 
on cardiovascular and respiratory function in the pre-
hospital setting - Western Australia Ambulance Service, 
Western Australia, Australia;
 Patient-controlled analgesia with inhaled methoxyflurane 
versus conventional endoscopist-provided sedation 
for colonoscopy: a randomized multicenter trial - Royal 
Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia; 
 The ‘green whistle’: A novel method of analgesia for 
transrectal prostate biopsy - Department Of Surgery , 
Monash University , Bairnsdale, Victoria, Australia;
 Penthrox® inhaler analgesia in transrectal ultrasound-
guided prostate biopsy - Sydney Adventist Hospital 
Clinical School, The University of Sydney, Sydney, New 
South Wales, Australia;
 Penthrox® for colonoscopy in patients with morbid 
obesity and/or obstructive sleep apnoea - Royal Adelaide 
Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia; and
 Inhaled methoxyflurane for pain and anxiety relief during 
burn wound care procedures: an Australian case series - 
The Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Other clinical trials are planned which may open up new areas 
of use for Penthrox®. During the year we have directly and 
indirectly assisted commencement of the following studies:
• 
• 
 A psychomotor function study at Royal Adelaide Hospital 
which will determine if Penthrox® impairs the cognitive 
ability of patients to drive or operate machinery; and
 An active comparative trial in Singapore with the 
Singapore Emergency Ambulance Service comparing the 
effectiveness of Penthrox® and intramuscular Tramadol.

REPORT
COMMERCIALISATION
MEDICAL DEVICES: RESPIRATORY
SOUTH AFRICA
Since 2010, MDI has been working with its business partner 
to obtain registration for the sale of Penthrox® in South Africa.  
In June 2014, we received approval to sell Penthrox® in South 
Africa. We expect South Africa will be a significant market for 
Penthrox® when we commence sales activities in FY15.
USA
We have begun the process of reviewing the necessary 
steps to get Penthrox® approved for sale in the USA. We 
expect to progress this approval process once we have 
achieved registration in Europe.
RUSSIA
We have been working on our Russian Registration Dossier 
to have Penthrox® approved for sale In Russia for more 
than two years. The Russian Registration Dossier has been 
reviewed by experts and application lodged with the Ministry 
of Health for Russia. We expect the process of approval will 
take at least 12 months.
EUROPE
MDI is negotiating with several marketing partners to 
represent us in various European markets.
EASTERN EUROPE AND MIDDLE EAST
Internationally, our Eastern European business performed 
below expectations with sales falling 58%. This is mainly 
due to the political unrest in the region and we expect this 
business to recover in FY15. Our Middle East Penthrox® 
business grew by 55% and is showing good signs of 
continued strong growth.
NEW ZEALAND
Our New Zealand business grew by 49%. Following on 
from Penthrox being approved for reimbursement in New 
Zealand hospitals we appointed new distributors to grow 
our Penthrox® business in New Zealand in December 2013. 
Penthrox® can now be used in all hospitals in New Zealand 
and is reimbursed by the New Zealand government, which 
represents a significant opportunity for growth. We expect 
FY15 to deliver further good growth in this market.
AUSTRALIA
Domestically, sales to Ambulance fell 16% during the year 
due to a change in stocking policy. Sales in the last two 
months of FY14, and the first two months of FY15 confirm 
that sales have recovered and we expect to record growth 
in our Ambulance business in FY15.
AUSTRALIA
Overall our Australian respiratory business was down 53%.  
In Australia the cancellation of a supply contract with GSK 
reduced revenue by circa $1.0 million (year on year), and the 
merger between Symbion and EBOS significantly reduced sales 
for respiratory devices. Our business with Symbion is expected 
to recover and new initiatives with other partners are beginning 
to deliver sales growth. We expect sales to our Australian 
business to recover and deliver strong growth in FY15.
USA
During the year we received FDA approval to sell our range 
of Space Chamber Plus® devices and we made our first 
sales into the USA market. Since the initial FDA approval 
we have added products from our range of masks and our 
portable nebuliser, which can now also be sold in the USA.  
Additional products are in the final stages of being submitted 
for approval including our “Combination Space Chamber & 
Mask” products and our new “anti-static” Compact Space 
Chamber Plus® products. We expect the full range of our 
respiratory products to be approved for sale during FY15.
Our initial assessment of the USA market is that there are 
approximately 20 million space chamber devices sold each 
year. Our products are amongst the world’s best and our 
ambition is to win significant market share over the next 
three years.
EUROPE
During the year we registered and received NHS approval 
for reimbursement of our Combination Space Chamber & 
Mask range of products to complement our existing Space 
Chamber Plus® range of devices in the UK. We also signed 
distribution deals with partners in Italy and Greece and 
delivered our first products into those markets and also 
made our first sales into Belgium and the Netherlands. We 
expect further significant improvements in our European 
Respiratory Device business during FY15.
NEW ZEALAND
Our New Zealand business suffered its first real contraction 
for many years during H1FY14 due to an unusually mild 
asthma season. We are pleased to announce H2FY14 sales 
grew 167% compared to H1FY14, and 20% greater than 
for the corresponding H2FY13 sales. We expect our New 
Zealand business to continue to perform strongly in FY15.
ASIA
We have increased our presence and marketing efforts 
throughout Asia.  Sales into this region grew 47% year on 
year and we expect further growth in FY15.

2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSDIRECTORS’ 
REPORT
OTHER
We have increased our presence and marketing efforts 
throughout Asia. Sales into this region grew 47% year on 
year and we expect further growth in FY15.
MEDICAL DEVICES: OTHER
Sales of our Medical Devices (non-respiratory) grew 36% 
during the year. Most of the growth is attributed to the 
introduction of new products to our range and an increased 
sales and marketing effort. 
VET
Our Vet business grew 45% during the year and is showing 
signs of further strong growth. Our increased sales efforts, 
the expansion of some of our international customers and 
the fall in the Australian dollar helped our export business 
into Europe. We expect our European business to continue 
to grow during FY15.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
MDI announced in July 2012 that we had launched a 
significant research initiative with the CSIRO aimed at 
improving the productivity and reducing the cost of our 
pharmaceutical manufacturing business. We have begun the 
final stage of constructing our commercial scale plant which 
we expect to be fully operational during 2015. If successful 
this initiative will deliver significant production cost benefits 
and valuable intellectual property to MDI.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
MDI continues to make a significant investment in 
developing its internal product development capabilities. 
During the year, MDI developed and/or launched: 
PENTHROX®
•  New 1.5ml Penthrox® product.
ASTHMA MEDICAL DEVICES
•  Space Chamber Plus® autoclavable;
•  Space Chamber Plus® Combination Pack (3 sizes).
OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES
•  Oxygen Face Masks and tubing kits;
•  Oxygen tubing;
•  Tourniquet;
•  Guedel airways (Multi packs); and
•  Emergency Medical Consumables.
22
OPERATING EXPENSES
During the year, the Company invested heavily in our 
regulatory, product development, sales, marketing and 
research and development teams. The investment in 
clinical studies, research and development and product 
development has been capitalised to intangible assets 
where appropriate. The capital expenditure on clinical 
studies required to build our regulatory dossier has largely 
been completed and is not expected to be a material cash 
investment in FY15.
We expect our R&D tax concession refund for FY14 to be 
circa $290,000.
DIVIDEND
No dividends are declared.
OUTLOOK
Our strategy to introduce Penthrox® to new markets 
around the world is progressing well. With the completion 
of the clinical trials required to build a “world class” 
Regulatory Dossier, we have moved into the next phase of 
growing our Penthrox® business which involves identifying 
appropriate business partners in markets around the world 
and submitting marketing applications / requests to sell 
Penthrox® in these new markets.
We are well on the way to achieving results and have used 
our Regulatory Dossier to submit applications to have 
Penthrox® approved for sale with regulatory authorities in 
the UK, France, Ireland, Belgium, Singapore, Israel, Saudi 
Arabia and Russia. In FY15 we expect to submit a number 
of additional applications to have Penthrox® available for 
sale in a number of new countries.
Our focus on improving efficiencies in all aspects of 
our business whilst growing sales will continue and our 
project with the CSIRO relating to the manufacturing of 
Methoxyflurane has the potential to transform the cost base 
of our products.
While FY14 has been a challenging year for our company, 
we are confident the future is extremely bright. We 
expect FY15 to deliver significant positive results for all 
our stakeholders in the business and in particular for 
shareholders, employees, customers and patients who 
benefit from the products we make.

REMUNERATION POLICY
The board continues to set remuneration at a level that will 
attract directors and executives of high calibre. The two key 
elements are:
The table and graph below depict the company’s earnings 
for the current financial year and the previous five financial 
years, which demonstrate that the company has been 
consistently profitable. 
• 
• 
 base salary and fees, which are determined by reference 
to the market rate based on payments at similar sized 
companies in the industry; and 
 Performance incentives, which have two components – 
short term incentives based on achieving key performance 
indicators during the year and payable in cash, and 
long-term incentives payable in equity, the value of which 
depends on the share price of the company.
The remuneration and nominations committee, comprised 
of D.J. Williams and A.D. McCallum, determines the salary 
package of the CEO of the company and reviews the 
compensation of the non-executive directors on an annual 
basis. Changes are approved by the board as a whole.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE REMUNERATION POLICY 
AND COMPANY PERFORMANCE
The board aims to ensure there is a strong link between 
company performance and remuneration and believes that 
the use of performance incentives ensures that company 
performance is reflected in the quantum of payments 
made to executives. Performance metrics are selected 
to ensure that the interests of management are aligned 
with those of shareholders. For short term incentives, key 
metrics are NPAT (net profit after tax), used to directly link 
company earnings and cash bonuses and other operational 
measures, the achievement of which provides the basis for 
future growth and profitability.

With exception of Mr Sharman and Mrs Charan whose remuneration comprised of a 13% and 7% performance related component 
respecitvely, no other director or key management personnel remuneration contained a performance related component. 
No key management personnel appointed during the period received a payment as part of his or her consideration for 
agreeing to hold the position.
ELEMENTS OF REMUNERATION RELATED  
TO PERFORMANCE
Fees paid to non-executive directors are not directly tied 
to performance. Salaries paid to the key executives are 
also not directly tied to performance. The short term and 
long-term incentive programmes are directly related to 
performance, and the conditions and assessment methods 
are explained below.
Short-term incentives
The determination and approval of any potential bonuses 
is at the discretion of the Board. During the 2014 financial 
year, discretionary bonuses totalling $4,577 (2013: $48,258) 
were determined and approved by the Remuneration and 
Nominations Committee in relation to key management 
personnel in respect of their performance in the 2013 
financial year. These bonuses are reflected in the 2014 
remuneration disclosures.

2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALS 
 
DIRECTORS’ 
REPORT
Long term incentives
On 5 September 2011 the Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) 
for the CEO (John Sharman) was formalised. Under the 
agreement, the CEO is provided with 3 separate tranches 
which if met (target share price and continued employment) 
would entitle the CEO to a bonus / subscription of shares at 
particular prices. No further service conditions are attached. 
The LTIP allows the CEO to choose between receiving a 
bonus (tranche 1: $120,000, tranche 2: $500,000 and 
tranche 3: $1,200,000), to be applied net of taxation 
through payroll and superannuation by the company to 
acquire shares in the company or subscribe for 513,577 
shares at 25 cents per share at each tranche. Where the 
CEO receives the bonus amount, this will be applied by the 
company to acquire shares at prices not exceeding the relevant 
share purchase price (tranche 1: 50 cents, tranche 2: $1.00 
and tranche 3: $1.50) where shares are purchased on the ASX 
in the ordinary course of trading or issued by the company at 
the relevant target price. Although the first option involves a 
monetary bonus, this is used to acquire shares to the value of 
the bonus. Therefore although the number of shares is variable, 
the bonus is still settled in shares for the CEO. Therefore neither 
option is a cash-settled share-based payment.
The following table outlines for each of the tranches the grant date, vesting conditions, fair valuation, and amount expensed 
during the year.

When exercising Tranche 2 the CEO opted to subscribe for shares at 25 cents per share in accordance with the LTIP. This 
resulted in an increase in ordinary share capital of $128,394.
When exercising Tranche 3 the CEO opted to receive a bonus of $1,200,000 was used to subscribe for shares at the 
target price in accordance with the LTIP. After withholding tax this resulted in a decrease in retained earnings of $546,250 
(withholding tax paid during the year).

 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSCONTRACT FOR SERVICES
Mr Sharman is employed under an open-ended contract 
with a notice period of three months. The contract does not 
provide for any termination payments beyond payment for 
the notice period and any accrued annual leave.
Mr Edwards is employed under an open-ended contract 
with a notice period of four weeks. The contract does not 
provide for any termination payments beyond payment for 
the notice period and any accrued annual leave.
NON-AUDIT SERVICES
The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit 
services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with 
the general standard of independence for auditors imposed 
by the Corporations Act 2001. The non-audit services 
related to the provision of taxation services. The directors 
do not believe that the provision of advice of this nature 
compromises the general principles relating to auditor’s 
independence, as set out by the Institute of Chartered 
Accountants in Australia.
Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-
audit services provided during the year by the auditor are 
outlined in note 8 to the financial statements.
AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 
30 of the annual report.
ROUNDING OFF OF AMOUNTS
The company is a company of the kind referred to in 
ASIC Class Order 98/0100, dated 10 July 1998, and in 
accordance with that Class Order amounts in the directors’ 
report and the financial report are rounded off to the nearest 
thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Signed in accordance with a resolution of the directors made 
pursuant to s.298(2) of the Corporations Act 2001.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL 
STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL 
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In addition, 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, which are 
described as follows:
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which 
has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 
2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, 
and complies with other requirements of the law.
• 
• 
The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial 
statements of the Group.
For the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial 
statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. Accounting 
Standards include Australian Accounting Standards. 
Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that 
the financial statements and notes of the company comply with 
International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’).
The financial statements were authorised for issue by the 
directors on 21 August 2014.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared 
on the basis of historical cost, except for certain non-
current assets and financial instruments that are measured 
at revalued amounts or fair values, as explained in the 
accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based 
on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for 
goods and services. All amounts are presented in Australian 
dollars, unless otherwise noted.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset 
or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between 
market participants at the measurement date, regardless of 
whether that price is directly observable or estimated using 
another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value 
of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the 
characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants 
would take those characteristics into account when pricing 
the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value 
for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these 
consolidated financial statements is determined on such a 
basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are 
within the scope of AASB 2, leasing transactions that are 
within the scope of AASB 117, and measurements that have 
some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as 
net realisable value in AASB 2 or value in use in AASB 136.
38
 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.
The company is a company of the kind referred to in 
ASIC Class Order 98/0100, dated 10 July 1998, and in 
accordance with that Class Order amounts in the financial 
report are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, 
unless otherwise noted.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the 
financial statements of the Company and entities (including 
special purpose entities) controlled by the Company (its 
subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has 
the power to govern the financial and operating policies of 
an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
Income and expense of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of 
during the year are included in the consolidated statement 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the 
effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of 
disposal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of 
subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and 
to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the 
non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial 
statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies 
into line with those used by other members of the Group.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses 
are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries 
that do not result in the Group losing control are accounted 
for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the 
Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are 
adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in 
the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by 
 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSNOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair 
value of the consideration paid or received is recognised 
directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies have been adopted 
in the preparation and presentation of the financial report:
(a) Borrowings
Borrowings are recorded initially at fair value, net of 
transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings are measured 
at amortised cost with any difference between the initial 
recognised amount and the redemption value being 
recognised in profit and loss over the period of the 
borrowing using the effective interest rate method.
(b) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in 
banks and investments in money market instruments, net of 
outstanding bank overdrafts.  
(c) Employee benefits
A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees 
in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service 
leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will 
be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.
Liabilities recognised in respect of wages and salaries, annual 
leave and sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months, 
are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration 
rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.
Liabilities recognised in respect of annual leave and long service 
leave which are not expected to be settled within 12 months 
are measured using an estimate of the present value of the 
future cash outflows to be made by the company in respect of 
services provided by employees up to reporting date.
(d) Financial assets
LOANS AND RECEIVABLES
Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have 
fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an 
active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. 
Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost 
using the effective interest rate method less impairment.
Interest income is recognised by applying the effective 
interest rate.
IMPAIRMENT OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
Financial assets, other than those at fair value through 
profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment 
at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are impaired 
where there is objective evidence that as a result of one 
or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of 
the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the 
investment have been impacted. 
(e) Financial instruments issued by the company
DEBT AND EQUITY INSTRUMENTS
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either liabilities 
or as equity in accordance with the substance of the 
contractual arrangement.
TRANSACTION COSTS ON THE ISSUE OF  
EQUITY INSTRUMENTS
Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are 
recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the proceeds of 
the equity instruments to which they relate. Transaction costs 
are the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the 
issue of those equity instruments and would not have been 
incurred had those instruments not been issued.
INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS
Interest and dividends are classified as expenses or as 
distributions of profit consistent with the balance sheet 
classification of the related debt or equity instruments or 
component parts of compound instruments.
(f) Foreign currency
The individual financial statements of each group entity 
are presented in the currency of the primary economic 
environment in which the entity operates (its functional 
currency). For the purpose of the consolidated financial 
statements, the results and financial position of each group 
entity are expressed in Australian dollars (‘$’), which is the 
functional currency of the Company and the presentation 
currency for the consolidated financial statements.
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group 
entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s 
functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised 
at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary 
items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at 
the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried 
at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are 
retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the 
39
2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSNOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are 
measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are 
not retranslated.
flows arising from investing and financing activities which 
is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is 
classified as operating cash flows.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in 
profit or loss in the period in which they arise, except for:
• 
• 
• 
 exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings 
relating to assets under construction for future productive 
use, which are included in the cost of those assets when 
they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on 
those foreign currency borrowings; 
 exchange differences on transactions entered into in 
order to hedge certain foreign currency risks below for 
hedging accounting policies; and
 exchange differences on monetary items receivable from 
or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is 
neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part 
of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are 
recognised initially in other comprehensive income and 
reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of 
the monetary items.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial 
statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign 
operations are translated into Australian dollars using 
exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. 
Income and expense items are translated at the average 
exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates 
fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case 
the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are 
used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised 
in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity 
(attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).
(g) Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the 
amount of goods and services tax (GST), except:
• 
 where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable 
from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the 
cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of 
expense; or
• 
 for receivables and payables which are recognised 
inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the 
taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables.
Cash flows are included in the Consolidated Statement of 
Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash 
(h) Goodwill
Goodwill, representing the excess of the cost of acquisition 
over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, is 
recognised as an asset and not amortised but tested for 
impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that 
the goodwill may be impaired. Any impairment is recognised 
immediately in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss 
and Other Comprehensive Income and is not subsequently 
reversed. Refer also to note 1(j).
(i) Government grants
Government grants are assistance by the government in the 
form of transfers of resources to the company in return for 
past or future compliance with certain conditions relating 
to the operating activities of the company. Government 
grants include government assistance where there are no 
conditions specifically relating to the operating activities 
of the company other than the requirement to operate in 
certain regions or industry sectors.
Government grants relating to income are recognised as 
income over the periods necessary to match them with 
the related costs. Government grants that are receivable 
as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred 
or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to 
the company with no future related costs are recognised as 
income of the period in which it becomes receivable.
Government grants relating to assets are treated as deferred 
income and recognised in the profit and loss over the 
expected useful lives of the assets concerned.
(j) Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, the company reviews the carrying 
amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine 
whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered 
an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable 
amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the 
extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not 
generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, 
the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash 
generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and 
intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for 
impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that 
the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not 
40
 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSNOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
subsequently reversed.  Recoverable amount is the higher 
of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing 
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted 
to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that 
reflects current market assessments of the time value of 
money and the risks specific to the asset for which the 
estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating 
unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the 
carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is 
reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is 
recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss 
and Other Comprehensive Income immediately, unless 
the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the 
impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Where an impairment loss (other than Goodwill) subsequently 
reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating 
unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable 
amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying 
amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would 
have been determined had no impairment loss been 
recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior 
years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit 
or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair 
value, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is 
treated as a revaluation increase.
(k) Income tax
CURRENT TAX
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of 
income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the 
taxable profit or loss for the period. It is calculated using tax 
rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively 
enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior 
periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent 
that it is unpaid (or refundable).
Where the Group qualifies for the research and development 
tax incentive refund (at 45%), this reduces the current tax 
expense recognised in profit and loss for the period.
DEFERRED TAX
Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive 
balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary 
differences arising from differences between the carrying 
amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements 
and the corresponding tax base of those items.
In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all 
taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are 
recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient 
taxable amounts will be available against which deductible 
temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets 
can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are 
not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them 
arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other 
than as a result of a business combination) which affects 
neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, 
a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable 
temporary differences arising from goodwill.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax 
rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the 
asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, 
based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively enacted by reporting date. 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 reporting date, to recover or 
settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate 
to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and 
the company intends to settle its current tax assets and 
liabilities on a net basis.
CURRENT AND DEFERRED TAX FOR THE PERIOD
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or 
income in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Other Comprehensive Income, except when it relates to 
items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the 
deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it 
arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, 
in which case it is taken into account in the determination of 
goodwill or excess.
(l) Intangible assets
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES
Patents, trademarks and licenses are recorded at cost less 
accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is 
charged on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives 
of 10 years. The estimated useful life and amortisation method 
is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an 
expense in the period in which it is incurred. Where no 
41
2014 Annual Report       FINANCIALSNOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, 
development expenditure is recognised as an expense in 
the period as incurred.
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the 
development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, 
and only if, all of the following are demonstrated:
• 
 the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset 
so that it will be available for use or sale;
• 
 the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
• 
the ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
• 
• 
 how the intangible asset will generate probable future 
economic benefits;
 the availability of adequate technical, financial and other 
resources to complete the development and to use or 
sell the intangible asset; and
• 
 the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable 
to the intangible asset during its development.
Internally-generated intangible assets in respect of 
development costs are stated at cost less accumulated 
amortisation and impairment, and are amortised on a 
straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of 5 years 
commencing from the date that revenue results.
REGISTRATION COSTS
Items of expenditure on registrations are capitalised to the 
extent that such costs can be measured reliably, future 
economic benefits are attributable to the expenditure, and it 
is probable that such future economic benefits will eventuate.
Any capitalised registration costs are amortised over a 
period of 5-20 years in which the corresponding benefits 
are expected to arise, commencing from commercial sales 
to any of the countries for which the registration costs 
contributed to a successful registration.
The unamortised balance of registration costs capitalised 
in previous periods is reviewed regularly at each reporting 
date, to ensure the criteria for deferral continue to be met. 
Where such costs are no longer recoverable, they are 
written off as an expense in the Consolidated Statement of 
Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
(m) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable 
value. Costs, including an appropriate portion of fixed and 
variable overhead expenses, are assigned to inventory on 
hand by the method most appropriate to each particular 
class of inventory, with the majority being valued on a first in 
first out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated 
selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs 
to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
(n) Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms 
of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of 
ownership to the lessee. The company currently does not 
have any finance leases. All other leases are classified as 
operating leases.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense 
on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where 
another systematic basis is more representative of the time 
pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset 
are consumed.
(o) Financial Liabilities
Trade payables and other accounts payable are classified 
as financial liabilities and are recognised when the company 
becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from 
the purchase of goods and services. Financial liabilities are 
initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised 
cost using the effective interest rate method, with interest 
expense recognised on an effective yield basis. 
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating 
the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating 
interest expense over the relevant period. The effective 
interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated 
future cash payments through the expected life of the 
financial liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period.
(p) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment and leasehold improvements 
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and 
impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that 
settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is 
deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts 
payable in the future to their present value as at the date 
of the acquisition. Other than the charge over the groups 
assets held in relation to the bank bill loan, all other assets 
are not encumbered by any additional charge or mortgage.
DEPRECIATION
Depreciation is provided on plant and equipment and is 
calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the cost 
42
 Medical Developments InternationalFINANCIALSof each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated 
residual value. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over 
the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is 
the shorter, using the straight line method. The estimated 
useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are 
reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.
The following estimated useful lives are used in the 
calculation of depreciation:
Leasehold improvements 
5 years
Plant and equipment 
4-10 years
(q) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present 
obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, 
and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate 
of the consideration required to settle the present obligation 
at reporting date, taking into account the risks and 
uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision 
is measured using the cashflows estimated to settle the 
present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value 
of those cashflows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle 
a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, 
the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is probable that 
recovery will be received and the amount of the receivable 
can be measured reliably.
DIVIDENDS
A liability is recognised for dividends when they have been 
declared, determined or publicly recommended by the 
directors on or before the reporting date.
(r) Revenue recognition
SALE OF GOODS
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the 
company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks 
and rewards of ownership of the goods.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income is recognised on a time proportionate basis that 
takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.
(s) Share based payments
Equity-settled share-based payments granted are measured 
at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value is measured by 
use of a Monte Carlo valuation model. 
NOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-
settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-
line basis over the vesting period, based on the company’s 
estimate of options that will eventually vest.
(t)   Application of new and revised  
Accounting Standards
R&D tax credits receivable as compensation for expenses or 
losses already incurred by the Company with no future related 
costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which 
they are quantified and become receivable. The company 
applies the income tax approach for the accounting and 
presentation of the R&D tax credit. Accordingly the tax benefit 
is presented as a reduction of income tax expense in the 
Statement of Profit or loss and other Comprehensive Income.

2.  CRITICAL ACCOUNTING 
JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES  
OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
The following are the key assumptions concerning the 
future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at 
the balance sheet date, that have significant risk of causing 
a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and 
liabilities within the next financial year:
GOING CONCERN
The FY14 Financial statements have been prepared on 
a going concern basis. The going concern assumption 
continues to apply to Medical Developments International 
Ltd as at 30 June 2014 as the Group continues to be 
profitable, generates positive operating cash flows, has 
recently renewed its external loan facility and continues to be 
in a positive net asset position, which enables the Group to 
meets its debts and obligations as and when they fall due.
IMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an 
estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units 
to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use 
calculation requires the entity to estimate the future cash 
flows expected to arise from the cash generating unit and a 
suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value.
The carrying amount of goodwill at the balance sheet date 
was $7,368K (2013: $7,368K). Details of the impairment 
calculation are provided in note 14.
AMORTISATION OF DEFERRED  
REGISTRATION COSTS
During the year, management reviewed the unamortised 
balance of registration costs capitalised in previous periods.  
Consideration was given to the cost for each classification 
of capitalised costs to determine whether the corresponding 
benefits are likely to arise. Developments continue on the 
unamortised categories of registration costs capitalised 
in prior periods, and once revenue has been generated 
in these categories, the balances will be amortised. At 
the reporting date there was no indication that any of the 
internally generated intangible assets, relating to registration 
costs, were impaired. Management continually reassess the 
appropriateness of useful lives assigned to each individual 
category of registration costs. This situation will be closely 
monitored, and amortisation will be recognised in future 
periods as corresponding economic benefits flow. Details of 
the capitalised registration costs are provided in Note 15.
3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES WITHIN EACH 
BUSINESS SEGMENT
For management purposes, the company is organised into 
three business units – Pharmaceuticals, Medical Devices 
and Veterinary products.These units are the basis on which 
the company reports its primary segment information.  The 
principal products and services of each of these divisions are 
as follows:
• 
• 
 Pharmaceuticals – the sale of Penthrox® primarily within 
Australia and New Zealand, but with some sales in 
Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South America.
 Medical Devices – the sale of medical devices, 
particularly the Space Chamber and Breath-Alert Peak-
Flow meters, primarily within Australia and New Zealand, 
but with some sales in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and 
North America.
• 
 Veterinary Products – the sale of veterinary products 
within Australia, Europe, and the United States.
No operating segments have been aggregated in arriving at 
the reportable segments of the group.
There have also been no sales between reportable segments.

The group has recognised a deferred tax asset of $104,000 in relation to carry forward losses of its Medical Developments UK 
Limited subsidiary. The tax asset has been recognised on the basis that taxable profits are forecasted during the FY16-FY19 
years that will result in utilisation of the unused tax losses. 
(i)  The June 2013 comparative for Deferred Tax Liabilities balances has been re-stated by $26,000 in order to correct a prior period error. 
The error related to a consolidation elimination adjustment for unrealised profits on the sale of inventories.

7. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
(A) EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTION PLAN
On 5 September 2011 the Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) for the CEO (John Sharman) was formalised. Under the 
agreement, the CEO is provided with 3 separate tranches which if met (target share price and continued employment) would 
entitle the CEO to a bonus / subscription of shares at particular prices. No further service conditions are attached. 
The LTIP allows the CEO to choose between receiving a bonus (tranche 1: $120,000, tranche 2: $500,000 and tranche 
3: $1,200,000), to be applied net of taxation through payroll and superannuation by the company to acquire shares in 
the company or subscribe for 513,577 shares at 25 cents per share at each tranche. Where the CEO receives the bonus 
amount, this will be applied by the company to acquire shares at prices not exceeding the relevant share purchase price 
(tranche 1: 50 cents, tranche 2: $1.00 and tranche 3: $1,50) where shares are purchased on the ASX in the ordinary course 
of trading or issued by the company at the relevant target price.  Although the first option involves a monetary bonus, this 
is used to acquire shares to the value of the bonus. Therefore although the number of shares is variable, the bonus is still 
settled in shares for the CEO. Therefore neither option is a cash-settled share-based payment.

When exercising Tranche 2, the CEO opted to subscribe for shares at 25 cents per share in accordance with the LTIP. 
This resulted in an increase in ordinary share capital of $128,394.
When exercising Tranche 3, the CEO opted to receive a bonus of $1,200,000, which was used to subscribe for 
shares at the target price in accordance with the LTIP. After withholding tax this resulted in a decrease in retained earnings of 
$546,250 (withholding tax paid during the year).

The average credit period on sales of goods to domestic 
customers is 30 days; international customers 60 days. No 
interest is charged on trade receivables.  
The Group has a credit policy in place to reduce its credit 
risks to significant debtors. Of the trade receivables balance 
at the end of the year, $640,615 (2013: $1,013,000) is due 
from the Group’s two largest customers (Refer to Note 3).
Included in the trade receivable balance are debtors with a 
carrying amount of $135,616 (2013: $274,000) which are 
past due at the reporting date for which the Group has not 
provided as there has not been a significant change in credit 
quality and the amounts are still considered recoverable. 
The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

In determining the recoverability of trade receivables, the 
Group considers any change in the credit quality of the trade 
receivable from the date the credit was initially granted up to 
the reporting date. The concentration of credit risk is limited 
due to the fact that the customer base is large and unrelated.
The directors believe that there is no further credit provision 
required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts.

During the year, the company assessed the recoverable 
amount of goodwill and determined that there was no 
impairment (2013: $nil).
ALLOCATION OF GOODWILL TO CASH 
GENERATING UNITS
Goodwill has been allocated for impairment testing 
purposes to three individual cash-generating units: 
pharmaceutical business, medical devices business and 
veterinary equipment business. The carrying amount 
of goodwill allocated to cash-generating units that are 
significant individually is as follows:
Pharmaceuticals
Medical devices
Veterinary equipment

581
7,368
2013
$'000
3,808
2,979
581
7,368
The recoverable amount of all three cash-generating units 
is based on a value in use calculation for each unit which 
uses cash flow projections based on a five-year projection 
period and terminal value. The Board of Directors approved 
financial budget for the following year is used to determine 
the cash flows for year 1.
Recoverable amount testing has been based on EBITDA 
growth rates for years 2-5 of:
Pharmaceuticals:   
Medical Devices:   
Veterinary equipment: 
7.5% based on expansion into  
new markets
12.5% based on expansion into  
new markets
7.5% based on expansion into  
new markets
A terminal value after 5 years based on a long term growth 
rate of 2.5%, and a pre-tax discount rate of 15.09% per 
annum (2013: 13.62% per annum) have been used to 
calculate the carrying value of the intangible assets.
The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations 
for all units are:
•  EBITDA growth – described above
• 
 Gross margin – it is assumed that gross margin of the 
Pharmaceutical & Medical Devices segments will continue 
to improve following investment and activities aimed at 
improvement in the manufacturing process and procedures. 
Management believes that any reasonably possible change 
in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount 
for each of the three units is based would not cause the 
carrying amounts to exceed their recoverable amounts.

NOTES TO THE 
FINANCIAL 
STATEMENT
SUMMARY OF BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS
(i) 
 On 1 March 2013 the Group entered into a commercial loan 
agreement to fund the purchase of a new bottling station. 
During the current year the commercial loan agreement was 
converted into a Hire Purchase Agreement. The current 
weighted-average effective interest rate on the loan is 7.70% 
p.a. The agreement is secured by a registered charge over 
the equipment financed.
(ii)   On 4 September 2013 the Group entered into a Hire 
Purchase Agreement in relation to plant and equipment.  
The term is 5 years and the current weighted average 
effective interest rate on the loan is 6.97%. The 
agreement is secured by a registered charge over the 
equipment financed.
(iii)   The Bank Bill Facility with a variable interest rate and 
90 day roll over period was taken out during the year. 
As at 30 June 2014, $3,000,000 has been drawn upon 
and $950,000 remains unused. The current weighted 
average effective interest rate on the bills is 4.78% p.a. 
The Bank Bill is secured by a registered charge over all 
of the Group’s assets.  Also refer to note 29 in relation to 
the refinancing of the bank bill facility post 30 June 2014.
(iv)  On 29 June 2012, the group entered into an 
agreement with the Commonwealth Scientific and 
Industrial Research Organisation (“CSIRO”) to fund 
the development of a new production process for the 
pain relieving ingredient used in Penthrox®. Funding is 
receivable at the commencement of each of three stages 
of development and is payable over a three year term 
upon the completion of the relevant stage. As at 30 June 
2014, the stage 1a and 1b are complete. Should MDI 
default on the loan, CSIRO has the option to convert the 
debt into shares in MDI at fair market value. This funding 
is interest-free until the first anniversary of the completion 
of stages 1a and 2 and is then calculated at the Westpac 
Bank Lending Rate at the date the relevant note was 
issued, plus 2%. The funding for stage 2 is interest free.
(v)   The Group has an overdraft facility of $200,000.  As at 
30 June 2014, this remains unused.

 KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL COMPENSATION
A director, Mr D. Williams, is a director of IDT Australia 
Limited. In the prior financial year Medical Developments 
International Limited obtained services from IDT Australia 
Limited on normal commercial terms and conditions and at 
normal arm’s length rates. These services totalled $198,807 
for the 30 June 2013 year.
There were no related party transactions during the 2014 
financial year.
29. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In August 2014, the Company has renegotiated its Bank Bill 
Facility and related financial covenants. The initial facility was 
due to expire in May 2015 which is the reason the entire 
loan was classified as a current liability at 30 June 2014. 
The refinanced facility remains at $3.950m and now extends 
through to August 2016. 
Other than the above, there has not been any other matter or 
circumstance that has arisen that has significantly affected, 
or may significantly affect the operations of the company, the 
results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the company 
in future years.

(b) Significant accounting policies
(a) Capital risk management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to 
continue as a going concern while maximising the return to 
stakeholders. The Group does not enter into or trade financial 
instruments, including derivatives, for speculative purposes.
The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt 
(borrowings as detailed in note 17) and equity of the Group 
(comprising issued capital, reserves, retained earnings, and 
cash and cash equivalents as detailed in notes 21, 22, 23, 
and 30(a), respectively).
The Group’s Audit and Risk Committee reviews the capital 
structure of the Group on a semi-annual basis. As part of 
this review, the committee considers the cost of capital and 
the risks associated with each class of capital. The gearing 
ratio at 30 June 2014 is 13% (see below).

(i)   Debt is defined as long-term and short-term borrowings 
as described in note 17.
(ii)   Equity includes all capital and reserves of the group that 
are managed as capital.
The bank bill facility includes financial covenants whereby 
the debt cover ratio must be no less than 2.5 times and 
the operating leverage ratio must be no higher than 1.75 
times. Monitoring of said covenants is performed monthly by 
management and signed off quarterly by the board.
The group identified the likely breaches of the above mentioned 
debt cover and operating leverage ratios at 30 June 2014 and 
obtained a waiver from the Bank from this being considered an 
‘Event of Default’. The Group has identified the reasons for not 
meeting certain covenants and has renegotiated its covenant 
obligations for forthcoming periods.

financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are 
disclosed in note 1 to the financial statements.
(c) Financial risk management objectives
The Group’s finance function provides services to the 
business, co-ordinates access to domestic and international 
financial markets, monitors and manages financial risks 
relating to the operations of the Group. These risks include 
market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate 
risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow 
interest rate risk.
(d) Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default 
on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the 
Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with 
creditworthy counterparties. The Group’s exposure is continually 
monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is 
spread amongst approved counterparties.
Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers. 
Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial 
condition of these accounts receivable and advance 
payments are requested where deemed appropriate.
The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the 
financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, 
represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk 
without taking account of the value of any collateral or other 
security obtained.
Apart from the three largest customers of the Group (refer to 
Notes 3 and 9), the Group does not have significant credit 
risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of 
counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group 
defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if 
they are related entities. Concentration of credit risk to any 
other counterparty did not exceed 5% of gross monetary 
assets at any time during the year.
(e) Foreign currency risk management
The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated 
in foreign currencies, hence exposures to exchange rate 
fluctuations arise.

FOREIGN CURRENCY SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
The Group predominantly trades in Australian dollars (AUD), 
but has limited exposure to the US dollar (USD) based on a 
portion of its overseas sales and purchases.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% 
increase and decrease in the Australian Dollar against the 
USD. 10% is the sensitivity rate used when assessing 
foreign currency risk internally by key management and 
represents management’s assessment of the possible 
change in foreign currency rates. The sensitivity analysis 
includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated 
monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period 
end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. A positive 
number indicates an increase in profit or loss where 
the Australian Dollar strengthens against the respective 
currency. For a weakening of the Australian Dollar against 
the respective currency there would be an equal and 
opposite impact on the profit.

This is attributable to the exposure outstanding on USD 
receivables and payables at year end in the Group. The 
exposure to movement in NZD, EUR and GBP is not 
deemed to be significant.
(f) Fair value of financial instruments
The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial 
assets and liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the 
financial statements approximates their respective net fair 
values, determined in accordance with the accounting 
policies disclosed in note 1 to the financial statements.
The Group does not recognise any financial instruments that 
are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value.
(g) Interest rate risk management
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it holds cash at 
floating interest rates. The following table details the Group’s 
exposure to interest rate risk as at 30 June 2014 and 30 
June 2013.
