Optiscan Imaging Limited 
Review of operations 
30 June 2017 

As  we  outlined  in  the  2016  Annual  Report,  the  new  board  and  management  undertook  a  review  of  the  business  and  has 
established a clear direction and plan for the business as we moved into FY2017. 

The Company identified three key pillars of success for its new business model: 

  Commercialising the Carl Zeiss Meditec (CZM) collaboration; 
  Sales of ViewnVivo – our second-generation pre-clinical research product; and  
  Exploring new market opportunities for related Optiscan products and services. 

Carl Zeiss Meditec (CZM) collaboration 

Our collaboration with CZM is the cornerstone of the Optiscan business. CZM is a major international  Company with global 
coverage,  based  in  Germany,  is  a  long-term  business  partner  and  has  a  significant  market  share  in  our  clinical  medical 
application areas. The significance of this collaboration is that regulatory approvals that CZM are advancing are expected to 
be completed during FY2018, which will then allow the collaboration product to be taken to market and rolled out globally by 
CZM.  

We have made good progress during H2 FY2016 and into FY2017 as we move into a production phase. Some of the key 
points include: 

  Delivery  of Production  Equivalent  Systems (PES)  in  December 2016. These units have been tested  by  CZM  who 

have confirmed the collaboration project systems are now production ready;  

  Delivery of additional Production Equivalent Systems (PES) in February 2017; 
  Additional orders from CZM for systems were delivered during the second half of the 2017 financial year; and 
  The Company is currently finalising the manufacture of additional Production Systems (PS), which were proposed to 
be delivered to CZM at the end of July 2017, and will now be delivered over the coming weeks. These systems will 
continue  to  be  tested  through  to  US  Food  &  Drug  Administration  (FDA)  approval  and  placed  in  the  hands  of  key 
opinion leaders.  

Sales of ViewnVivo 

ViewnVivo  is  a  miniaturised  fluorescence  endomicroscope  platform  that  brings  the  next  generation  of  Optiscan’s  imaging 
capability and flexibility to Preclinical Research. 

Whilst  CZM  is  a  cornerstone  project  for  Optiscan,  ViewnVivo  offers  improved  capability  in  the  preclinical  space.  We  are 
confident  that  ViewnVivo  will  secure  a  significant  share  of  this  global  market  and  will  provide  Optiscan  with  an  additional 
revenue source to complement our CZM collaboration project. 

Some of the key points include: 

  Relaunch of the product in late 2016 with a stand-alone website (www.viewnvivo.com).   
  Optiscan was the Major Sponsor of the National Conference of Light Microscopy Australia (LMA) held in Melbourne 
on  1-3  February  2017.  The  event  was  attended  by  approx.  200  of  Australia’s  leading  Research  Professors, 
Researcher  leaders,  Microscopy  Facility  Managers  and  Students,  and  represented  Optiscan’s  re-entry  into  the 
Research  market.  As  part  of  the  conference  agenda,  Optiscan  presented  a  system  overview  to  the  conference 
audience  along  with  Cameron  J  Nowell  of  Monash  Institute  of  Pharmaceutical  Sciences. The  Company  also 
demonstrated the ViewnVivo system to attendees throughout the 3 days of the conference.  
In addition to attending LMA, Optiscan sponsored the National Micrograph Imaging Award for the next 3 years - to 
be referred to as the “Optiscan Imaging Award”. This represents continued reinforcement and engagement with the 
local Microscopy community. 

 

ViewnVivo marketing activity is progressing well with both local and overseas market engagement including, but not limited 
to, the following: 

o  Progress continues with a number of Australian research organisations looking to evaluate the system with 

a view to purchasing a ViewnVivo.  

o  Meetings  have  taken  place  in  Australia,  USA  and  China  with  existing  Optiscan  1st  generation  preclinical 

customers with a view to upgrading to ViewnVivo.  

o  On  28  June  2017,  the  Company  executed  a  Distribution  Agreement  with  Scintica  Instrumentation  Inc.  for 

the USA and North American market; 

o  Discussions are advanced with potential Distribution Partners for the ViewnVivo product in both China and 

Europe;

Review of operations 
30 June 2017 

Exploring new market opportunities  

Whilst the two pillars of CZM and ViewnVivo are pivotal to the future success of Optiscan, it is also essential that we future-
proof the business. Therefore, Optiscan needs to continue its Product Development to explore new market opportunities. 

Whilst our prime focus will be on CZM and ViewnVivo in the short-term, our development team will continue to investigate 
opportunities  for  Optiscan.  The  key  point  here  is  that  we  will  ensure  delivery  of  key  projects  and  yet  keep  an  eye  on  the 
future. We will do this via a separate department of Optiscan which will be responsible for development. As a consequence, 
we will ensure that Optiscan remains at the forefront of innovation and technological advancement well into the future. 

Corporate  

During the financial year, the consolidated entity raised the following amounts through capital raisings: 

  On  6  July  2016,  the  Company  issued  29,980,000  new  shares  in  respect  of  a  capital  placement,  raising  $749,500 

from this placement; 

  The  Company  issued  56,624,918  new  shares  through  a  fully-underwritten  2  for  9  rights  issue.  $1,415,623  before 

costs was raised from this rights issue.  

  On 21 December 2016, the Company announced that it had received commitments for the placement of 38,650,000 
fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.05  (5 cents) per share raising $1,932,500. The  Company  issued 
the new shares on 28 December 2016. 

Conclusion 

The  board  and  management  of  Optiscan  are  confident  that  Optiscan  remains  on  track  on  the  commercialisation  path 
established as we drive the business into the production phase for the CZM Collaboration and  global sales and distribution 
of  ViewnVivo  products. With  significant  anticipated  demand  for  Optiscan  products  through  Optiscan’s  global  partner  CZM 
and the recently launched ViewnVivo systems, the Optiscan board believes that the Company is on the verge of delivering a 
significantly improved performance for the 2017/18 period and beyond.

On 10  August 2017,  the consolidated  entity issued 1,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares on exercise  of 1,000,000  unlisted

and  appropriate  for  the  results  delivered.  The  framework  aligns  executive  reward  with  the  achievement  of  strategic 
objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and  it  is considered to conform to the market best practice for the 
delivery of reward. The Board of Directors ('the Board') ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for 
good reward governance practices: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 competitiveness and reasonableness 
 acceptability to shareholders 
 performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation 
 transparency 

The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and executives. The 
performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy 
is to attract, motivate and retain high performance and high quality personnel. 

The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to shareholders' interests. The Board have considered that it 
should seek to enhance shareholders' interests by: 
● 
● 

 having economic profit as a core component of plan design 
 focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering 
constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value 
 attracting and retaining high calibre executives 

● 

Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives' interests by: 
● 
● 
● 

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

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

Non-executive directors remuneration 
The  Constitution  of  the  company  and  the  ASX  Listing  Rules  establish  an  aggregate  or  maximum  level  of  remuneration 
available to  non-executive  directors, to be divided amongst the directors as agreed. The aggregate amount approved  by 
shareholders to be available for remuneration of non-executive directors is $400,000 per annum. 

The Board has determined that non-executive directors shall receive only fixed remuneration by way of payment of fees. 
There is no variable, short term incentive remuneration for non-executive directors, nor is there any entitlement to retiring 
allowances or payments other than the statutory superannuation required by law. 

Non-executive directors receive an annual fee for all  services provided to the company, including  being  a director  of the 
company and any of its subsidiaries, and for serving on board sub committees in accordance with the requirements of the 
Corporate Governance Policy. 

Non-executive directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company which have been purchased on market or through 
placements  where  participation by the directors has  been approved  by shareholders in general meeting. It is considered 
good governance for the directors to have a personal financial stake in the company. 

Executive remuneration 
The Remuneration Committee (currently comprising the board) is responsible for establishing the structure and amount of 
remuneration.  

The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 base pay and non-monetary benefits 
 short-term performance incentives 
 share-based payments 
 other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave 

The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration.

Optiscan Imaging Limited 
Directors' report 
30 June 2017 

The  level  of  fixed  remuneration  is  set  so  as  to  provide  a  base  level  of  remuneration,  which  is  both  appropriate  to  the 
position and competitive in the market. 

Fixed  remuneration  is  reviewed  annually  by  the  Remuneration  Committee,  and  the  process  consists  of  a  review  of 
company  and  individual  performance,  and  comparative  remuneration  in  the  market.  All  employees  are  provided  with  the 
opportunity to receive their fixed remuneration in both cash and benefits, subject to there being no change in overall cost to 
the company. Compulsory superannuation contributions are included in the determination of fixed remuneration.  

Variable Remuneration 
The objectives and structure of the Group’s policy on Variable Remuneration is set out below. 

Variable Remuneration - Short Term Incentive (STI) 

The  objective  of  the  STI  program  is  to  link  the  achievement  of  the  group’s  operational  targets  with  the  remuneration 
received  by  key  management  personnel  with  prime  responsibility  for  meeting  those  targets.  The  total  potential  STI 
available is set at a level so as to provide sufficient incentive to the key management personnel to achieve the operational 
targets and such that the cost to the company is reasonable in the circumstances. 

Actual STI payments granted to key management personnel depend on the extent to which specific operating targets set at 
the  beginning  of  the  financial  year  are  met.  The  operational  targets  consist  of  a  number  of  Key  Performance  Indicators 
(KPI’s)  covering  both  financial  and  non-financial  measures  of  performance.  Typically  included  are  such  measures  as 
achievement  of  budgeted  financial  outcomes  and  key  milestones,  for  example,  demonstrating  clinical  efficacy,  achieving 
quality accreditation, obtaining regulatory clearance  or measures such as control of expenditure  or achievement of sales 
targets. The Board or Remuneration Committee establishes clear performance benchmarks, which must be met in order to 
trigger payments under the short term incentive scheme.  

The aggregate amount of annual STI payments available for key management personnel and other executives is subject to 
the approval of the Remuneration Committee. Payments made are usually delivered as a cash bonus. 

Variable Remuneration - Long Term Incentive (LTI) 

Long  term  incentives  are  delivered  to  executives  and  employees  by  way  of  grant  of  options  under  the  Employee  Share 
Option Plan. 

The objective of the long term incentive plan is to reward executives and employees in a manner which aligns this element 
of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth.  

LTI  grants  to  employees,  including  executives,  are  delivered  in  the  form  of  options.  The  Remuneration  Committee  is 
responsible  for  the  allocation  of  options,  and  determines  the  quantum  of  grants  by  reference  to  group  and  individual 
performance against targets. 

Incentives and Company Performance 

The  link  between  incentive  structure  and  company  performance  is  an  important  aspect  of  remuneration  philosophy.  The 
purpose  of  the  remuneration  policies  of  the  Group  is  to  create  an  effective  and  transparent  link  between  the  incentives 
provided and the performance of the Group. 

The group is in the process of transition from a business predominantly engaged in research and development (“R&D”) to 
one  increasingly  focussed  on  commercialisation  of  its  technology.  Whilst  substantial  progress  has  been  made,  the 
transition  from  loss  making  R&D  activities  to  profit  making  trading  has  not  yet  been  completed.  As  a  consequence, 
performance to date cannot appropriately be determined with conventional financial measurement tools. As the group has 
expensed  all  R&D  expenditure  incurred  to  date,  losses  have  been  reported  so  conventional  earnings  measures  such  as 
profit growth, EPS or dividend yield and payout are not applicable.  

In  view  of  the  limited  relevance  of  financial  measurement  tools,  the  Board  of  Directors  has  determined  that  the 
performance of the group is best reviewed in the context of achievement of key milestones. During the period, no additional 
remuneration was paid based on milestones.

Directors' report

Incentive Payments and Performance Conditions 2016/2017 

During the year ended 30 June 2017, an STI performance based bonus was awarded to the CEO. 

In the prior financial  year, an LTI incentive was granted to the CEO, Mr Archie Fraser. An options package comprising 4 
tranches 875,000 options and 2 tranches of 2,000,000 share options (a total of 7,500,000 options) were issued pursuant to 
the terms of his employment contract.  

At  the  company’s  Annual  General  Meeting  held  on  25  November  2016,  shareholders  approved  a  modification  to  the 
original  share  option  commitment,  although  the  total  number  of  share  options  remained  the  same  at  7,500,000.  Options 
comprising  5  equal  tranches  of  1,500,000  options  each  (a  total  of  7,500,000)  were  granted  to  Mr  Fraser.  Of  the  options 
granted,  3,000,000  options  are  exercisable  at  $0.025  (2.5  cents)  per  option  and  the  remaining  4,500,000  options  are 
exercisable at $0.025 (2.5 cents) per option, with varying expiry dates through to November 2021. Vesting is subject to Mr 
Fraser’s continued employment with the Company.  

Employment Contracts 

All  staff  including  executives  are  engaged  under  rolling  employment  agreements.  The  contracts  continue  indefinitely 
subject to satisfactory performance, and provide one months notice. Under the terms of the agreements:  

- The company may terminate the employment agreement by providing the requisite period of written notice or by providing 
payment in lieu of notice, based on the fixed component of remuneration. Any unvested options at the expiry of the notice 
period will be forfeited. 

- On resignation any unvested options are forfeited. 

- The company may terminate the agreement at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred, in which case 
the executive is only entitled to that portion of remuneration that is fixed, and only up to the date of termination. 

Voting and comments made at the company's 25 November 2016 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') 
At the 2016 AGM, 94.99% of the votes received supported the adoption of the remuneration report for the year ended 30 
June 2016. The company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Indemnity and insurance of officers 
The company has indemnified the directors and executives of the company for costs incurred, in their capacity as a director 
or executive, for which they may be held personally liable, except where there is a lack of good faith. 

During the financial year, the company paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the directors and executives of the 
company  against  a  liability  to  the  extent  permitted  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  The  contract  of  insurance  prohibits 
disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium. 

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

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

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

Non-audit services 
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in note 22 to the financial statements. 

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

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 22 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 
● 

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

● 

Officers of the company who are former partners of Ernst & Young 
There are no officers of the company who are former partners of Ernst & Young. 

Auditor's independence declaration 
A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the  Corporations Act 2001 is set out 
immediately after this directors' report.

Ernst & Young continues in office in accordance with section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001.

Optiscan Imaging Limited 
Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2017 

Note 1. General information 

The financial statements cover Optiscan Imaging Limited as a consolidated entity consisting of Optiscan Imaging Limited 
and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, 
which is Optiscan Imaging Limited's functional and presentation currency. 

Optiscan  Imaging  Limited  is  a  listed  public  company  limited  by  shares,  incorporated  and  domiciled  in  Australia.  Its 
registered office and principal place of business is: 

16 Miles Street 
Mulgrave, Victoria, 3170 

A description of the  nature of  the consolidated entity's operations and  its principal activities are  included in the directors' 
report, which is not part of the financial statements. 

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance  with a resolution of directors, on  28  September 2017. 
The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies 

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

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 
The  consolidated  entity  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. 

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

Going concern 
The  financial  report  has  been  prepared  on  the  going  concern  basis,  which  contemplates  continuity  of  normal  business 
activities and realisation of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The going concern of the consolidated 
entity is dependent upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its operations and commitments.  

The  working  capital  position  as  at  30  June  2017  of  the  consolidated  entity  results  in  an  excess  of  current  assets  over 
current  liabilities  of  $1,512,755  (30  June  2016:  $766,500  deficit).  The  consolidated  entity  made  a  loss  after  tax  of 
$2,942,925  during  the  financial  year  (2016:  loss  of  $1,337,056  from  continuing  operations)  and  the  net  operating  cash 
outflow was $3,412,811 (2016: $509,246 net outflow). The cash balance as at 30 June 2017 was $700,666 (30 June 2016: 
$954,805). 

The  Directors  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  existing  cash  reserves  together  with  the  recent  capital  raising  will  provide  the 
Company with adequate funds to ensure its continued viability and operate as a going concern. The Directors are confident 
based  on  forecast  operating  cash  flows  together  with  funds  raised  from  recent  equity  raisings  that  the  Company  can 
continue to monitor the ongoing funding requirements of the consolidated entity. The Directors are confident that sufficient 
funds can be secured if required by a combination of capital raising to continue as a going concern and as such are of the 
opinion that the financial report has been appropriately prepared on a going concern basis. 

Subsequent to financial year end the Company announced that it proposed to offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to 
apply for new fully paid ordinary shares through a Share Purchase Plan (SPP). The SPP was underwritten by Patersons 
Securities  up  to  an  amount  of  $2,500,000.  On  completion  of  the  SPP,  the  Company  offered  a  Placement  of  up  to  $2.5 
million to sophisticated and professional investors at the same price as shares issued under the SPP. The Company also 
received commitments from professional and sophisticated investors.  

The  Company  announced  on  26  September  2017  that  it  had  received  applications  for  a  total  of  $1,188,000  (14,850,000 
shares  at  an  issue  price  of  $0.08  per  share)  from  Eligible  Shareholders.  Pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the  underwriting, 
Patersons  will  place  the  shortfall  of  $1,312,000  (16,400,000  shares  at  an  issue  price  of  $0.08  per  share),  and  it  is 
envisaged that the Shares to be issued pursuant to the underwritten SPP will be allotted on 2 October 2017. 

It  was  also announced that the Company has received commitments from professional  and sophisticated investors for a 
total of $1,000,000 to participate in a placement at the same issue price as the SPP.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2017 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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

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

Critical accounting estimates 
The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. The areas 
involving  a  higher  degree  of  judgement  or  complexity,  or  areas  where  assumptions  and  estimates  are  significant  to  the 
financial statements, are disclosed in note 3. 

Parent entity information 
In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  consolidated  entity 
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 26. 

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Optiscan Imaging Limited 
('company'  or  'parent  entity')  as  at  30  June  2017  and  the  results  of  all  subsidiaries  for  the  year  then  ended.  Optiscan 
Imaging Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. 

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

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are 
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides  evidence of the impairment of the asset 
transferred.  Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to  ensure  consistency  with  the 
policies adopted by the consolidated entity. 

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

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

Operating segments 
Operating  segments  are  presented  using  the  'management  approach',  where  the  information  presented  is  on  the  same 
basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the 
allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 

Foreign currency translation 
The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars,  which  is  Optiscan  Imaging  Limited's  functional  and 
presentation currency.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Foreign currency transactions 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the  settlement  of  such  transactions  and  from  the 
translation  at  financial  year-end  exchange  rates  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are 
recognised in profit or loss. 

Foreign operations 
The  assets  and  liabilities  of  foreign  operations  are  translated  into  Australian  dollars  using  the  exchange  rates  at  the 
reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average 
exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange 
differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity. 

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of. 

Revenue recognition 
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue 
can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. 

Sale of goods 
Sale of goods revenue is recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken delivery of the goods, the 
risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are 
net of sales returns and trade discounts. 

Rendering of services 
Rendering of services revenue from computer maintenance fees is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of 
the contracts. 

Stage of completion is measured by reference to labour  hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated labour 
hours for each contract. Where the contract outcome cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is only recognised to the extent 
of the recoverable costs incurred to date. 

Royalty revenue 
Royalty revenue is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant licensing agreement.  

Interest 
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the 
amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest 
rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset 
to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. 

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. 

Government grants 
When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant on a 
systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate. Where expenditure has been incurred that gives rise to an 
entitlement under a grant agreement, the grant income is accrued. Revenue is recognised only to the extent that there is 
reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and conditions attached will be complied with. 

Income tax 
The  income  tax  expense  or  benefit  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  that  period's  taxable  income  based  on  the 
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to 
temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Deferred  tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied  when 
the  assets  are  recovered  or  liabilities  are  settled,  based  on  those  tax  rates  that  are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted, 
except for: 
● 

 When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a 
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting 
nor taxable profits; or 
 When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and 
the  timing  of  the  reversal  can  be  controlled  and  it  is  probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse  in  the 
foreseeable future. 

● 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only  if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

The carrying  amount of  recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting  date. Deferred 
tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for 
the carrying amount to be  recovered.  Previously  unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the  extent that it is 
probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  only  where  there  is  a  legally  enforceable  right  to  offset  current  tax  assets 
against  current  tax  liabilities  and  deferred  tax  assets  against  deferred  tax  liabilities;  and  they  relate  to  the  same  taxable 
authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 

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

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

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

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

Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand,  deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and 
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. 

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written 
off  by  reducing  the  carrying  amount  directly.  A  provision  for  impairment  of  trade  receivables  is  raised  when  there  is 
objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of 
the  receivables.  Significant  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor,  probability  that  the  debtor  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  financial 
reorganisation  and  default  or  delinquency  in  payments  (more  than  60  days  overdue)  are  considered  indicators  that  the 
trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying 
amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows 
relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. 

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2017 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Inventories 
Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a 'first in first 
out'  basis.  Cost  comprises  of  direct  materials  and  delivery  costs,  direct  labour,  import  duties  and  other  taxes,  an 
appropriate  proportion  of  variable  and  fixed  overhead  expenditure  based  on  normal  operating  capacity,  and,  where 
applicable,  transfers  from  cash  flow  hedging  reserves  in  equity.  Costs  of  purchased  inventory  are  determined  after 
deducting rebates and discounts received or receivable. 

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

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

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

Depreciation  is  calculated  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  estimated  useful  life  of  the  assets.  The  depreciation  rates 
applied to the main classes of plant and equipment are: 

Office furniture & equipment 
Production equipment 
R&D equipment 

 20% - 40% 
 20% 
 30% - 40% 

The  residual  values,  useful  lives  and  depreciation  methods  are  reviewed,  and  adjusted  if  appropriate,  at  each  reporting 
date. 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the 
consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount  and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. 
Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits. 

Leases 
The determination  of whether an arrangement is  or contains a lease  is based  on the substance of the  arrangement and 
requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets 
and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. 

A distinction is made between finance leases, which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the 
risks  and  benefits  incidental  to  the  ownership  of  leased  assets,  and  operating  leases,  under  which  the  lessor  effectively 
retains substantially all such risks and benefits. 

Finance leases are capitalised. A lease asset and liability are established at the fair value of the leased assets, or if lower, 
the  present  value  of  minimum  lease  payments.  Lease  payments  are  allocated  between  the  principal  component  of  the 
lease liability and the finance costs, so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. 

Leased assets acquired under a finance lease are depreciated over the asset's useful life or over the shorter of the asset's 
useful life and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the consolidated entity will obtain ownership at the end 
of the lease term. 

Operating lease payments, net of any  incentives received from the lessor, are charged to profit or loss on  a straight-line 
basis over the term of the lease. 

Trade and other payables 
These  amounts  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and  services  provided  to  the  consolidated  entity  prior  to  the  end  of  the 
financial  year  and  which  are  unpaid.  Due  to  their  short-term  nature  they  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  and  are  not 
discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Borrowings 
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of  transaction costs. They 
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the 
loans or borrowings are classified as non-current. 

Finance costs 
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in 
the period in which they are incurred. 

Employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 
Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  long  service  leave  expected  to  be 
settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities 
are settled. 

Other long-term employee benefits 
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are 
measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to 
the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, 
experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields 
at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, 
the estimated future cash outflows. 

Share-based payments 
Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. 

Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for 
the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of 
cash is determined by reference to the share price. 

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  are  measured  at  fair  value  on  grant  date.  Fair  value  is  independently  determined 
using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the 
option,  the  impact  of  dilution,  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 option, together with non-vesting conditions that do 
not  determine  whether  the  consolidated  entity  receives  the  services  that  entitle  the  employees  to  receive  payment.  No 
account is taken of any other vesting conditions. 

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  are  recognised  as  an  expense  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity  over  the 
vesting  period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair  value of the award, the 
best  estimate  of  the  number  of  awards  that  are  likely  to  vest  and  the  expired  portion  of  the  vesting  period.  The  amount 
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already 
recognised in previous periods. 

The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was 
granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
● 

 during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the 
expired portion of the vesting period. 
 from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

● 

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to 
settle the liability.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market conditions 
are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are 
satisfied. 

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. 
An  additional  expense  is  recognised,  over  the  remaining  vesting  period,  for  any  modification  that  increases  the  total  fair 
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is 
treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied 
during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the 
award is forfeited. 

If  equity-settled  awards  are  cancelled,  it  is  treated  as  if  it  has  vested  on  the  date  of  cancellation,  and  any  remaining 
expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and 
new award is treated as if they were a modification. 

Fair value measurement 
When an asset or liability,  financial or non-financial,  is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure  purposes, the 
fair value is based on 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;  and  assumes  that  the  transaction  will  take  place  either:  in  the 
principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. 

Fair  value  is  measured  using  the  assumptions  that  market  participants  would  use  when  pricing  the  asset  or  liability, 
assuming  they  act  in  their  economic  best  interests.  For  non-financial  assets,  the  fair  value  measurement  is  based  on  its 
highest  and  best  use.  Valuation  techniques  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances  and  for  which  sufficient  data  are 
available  to  measure  fair  value,  are  used,  maximising  the  use  of  relevant  observable  inputs  and  minimising  the  use  of 
unobservable inputs. 

Issued capital 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds. 

Earnings per share 

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

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account 
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the 
weighted  average  number  of  shares  assumed  to  have  been  issued  for  no  consideration  in  relation  to  dilutive  potential 
ordinary shares. 

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part 
of the expense. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  GST 
recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  tax  authority  is  included  in  other  receivables  or  other  payables  in  the  statement  of 
financial position.

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2017. 
The consolidated entity's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, 
most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below. 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2018.  The  standard  replaces  all 
previous  versions  of  AASB  9  and  completes  the  project  to  replace  IAS  39  'Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset shall 
be measured at amortised  cost, if it is held  within a  business model  whose objective  is to  hold assets in order to collect 
contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets 
are  to  be  classified  and  measured  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss  unless  the  entity  makes  an  irrevocable  election  on 
initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-trading) in other comprehensive 
income  ('OCI').  For  financial  liabilities,  the  standard  requires  the  portion  of  the  change  in  fair  value  that  relates  to  the 
entity's  own  credit  risk  to  be  presented  in  OCI  (unless  it  would  create  an  accounting  mismatch).  New  simpler  hedge 
accounting requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of 
the  entity.  New  impairment  requirements  will  use  an  'expected  credit  loss'  ('ECL')  model  to  recognise  an  allowance. 
Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased 
significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. The standard introduces additional 
new  disclosures.  The  consolidated  entity  will  adopt  this  standard  from  1  July  2019  but  the  consolidated  entity  does  not 
expect that it will have a material impact on implementation. 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  on  or  after  1  January  2018.  The  standard  provides  a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict 
the  transfer  of  promised  goods  or  services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to  which  the  entity 
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal or 
implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract; determine the transaction 
price,  adjusted  for  the  time  value  of  money  excluding  credit  risk;  allocation  of  the  transaction  price  to  the  separate 
performance  obligations  on  a  basis  of  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  of  each  distinct  good  or  service,  or  estimation 
approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. 
Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to  revenue.  For  goods,  the  performance 
obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is 
satisfied  when  the  service  has  been  provided,  typically  for  promises  to  transfer  services  to  customers.  For  performance 
obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue 
should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an  entity's 
statement  of  financial  position  as  a  contract  liability,  a  contract  asset,  or  a  receivable,  depending  on  the  relationship 
between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required 
to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; the significant judgements made in applying the guidance to 
those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The consolidated 
entity  will  adopt  this  standard  from  1  July  2019  but  the  consolidated  entity  does  not  expect  that  it  will  have  a  material 
impact on implementation.

AASB 16 Leases 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 
117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, 
a  'right-of-use'  asset  will  be  capitalised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position,  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the 
unavoidable  future  lease  payments  to  be  made  over  the  lease  term.  The  exceptions  relate  to  short-term  leases  of  12 
months  or  less  and  leases  of  low-value  assets  (such  as  personal  computers  and  small  office  furniture)  where  an 
accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit 
or  loss  as  incurred.  A  liability  corresponding  to  the  capitalised  lease  will  also  be  recognised,  adjusted  for  lease 
prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or 
dismantling  costs.  Straight-line  operating  lease  expense  recognition  will  be  replaced  with  a  depreciation  charge  for  the 
leased  asset  (included  in  operating  costs)  and  an  interest  expense  on  the  recognised  lease  liability  (included  in  finance 
costs).  In  the  earlier  periods  of  the  lease,  the  expenses  associated  with  the  lease  under  AASB  16  will  be  higher  when 
compared  to  lease  expenses  under  AASB  117.  However  EBITDA  (Earnings  Before  Interest,  Tax,  Depreciation  and 
Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit 
or  loss  under  AASB  16.  For  classification  within  the  statement  of  cash  flows,  the  lease  payments  will  be  separated  into 
both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, 
the  standard  does  not  substantially  change  how  a  lessor  accounts  for  leases.  The  consolidated  entity  will  adopt  this 
standard from 1 July 2020. The entity is yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the impact of AASB 16. However, based 
on the entity's preliminary assessment, the likely impact on the first time adoption of the Standard for the year  ending 30 
June 2021 includes: 
- there will be an increase in lease assets and financial liabilities recognised on the balance sheet. 
- the reported equity will reduce as the carrying amount of lease assets will reduce more quickly than the carrying amount 
of lease liabilities. 
-  EBIT  in  the  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income  will  be  higher  as  the  implicit  interest  in  lease 
payments  for  former  off  balance  sheet  leases  will  be  presented  as  part  of  finance  costs  rather  than  being  included  in 
operating expenses. 
- operating cash outflows will be lower and financing cash flows will be higher in the statement of cash flows as principal 
repayments  on  all  lease  liabilities  will  now  be  included  in  financing  activities  rather  than  operating  activities.  Interest  can 
also be included within financing activities. 

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in 
relation  to  assets,  liabilities,  contingent  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses.  Management  bases  its  judgements,  estimates 
and  assumptions  on  historical  experience  and  on  other  various  factors,  including  expectations  of  future  events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will 
seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing 
a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  (refer  to  the  respective  notes)  within  the  next 
financial year are discussed below. 

Share-based payment transactions 
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of 
the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair  value is determined by using either the Binomial or 
Black-Scholes  model  taking  into  account  the  terms  and  conditions  upon  which  the  instruments  were  granted.  The 
accounting  estimates  and  assumptions  relating  to  equity-settled  share-based  payments  would  have  no  impact  on  the 
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. 

Provision for impairment of receivables 
The  provision  for  impairment  of  receivables  assessment  requires  a  degree  of  estimation  and  judgement.  The  level  of 
provision  is  assessed  by  taking  into  account  the  recent  sales  experience,  the  ageing  of  receivables,  historical  collection 
rates and specific knowledge of the individual debtor's financial position. 

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 recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that 
affect inventory obsolescence.

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Fair value measurement hierarchy 
The consolidated entity is required to classify all assets and liabilities, measured at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, 
based  on  the  lowest  level  of  input  that  is  significant  to  the  entire  fair  value  measurement,  being:  Level  1:  Quoted  prices 
(unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2: 
Inputs  other  than  quoted  prices  included  within  Level  1  that  are  observable  for  the  asset  or  liability,  either  directly  or 
indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Considerable judgement is required to determine what 
is significant to fair value and therefore which category the asset or liability is placed in can be subjective. 

The  fair  value  of  assets  and  liabilities  classified  as  level  3  is  determined  by  the  use  of  valuation  models.  These  include 
discounted cash flow analysis or the use of observable inputs that require significant adjustments based on unobservable 
inputs. 

Estimation of useful lives of assets 
The  consolidated  entity  determines  the  estimated  useful  lives  and  related  depreciation  and  amortisation  charges  for  its 
property,  plant  and  equipment  and  finite  life  intangible  assets.  The  useful  lives  could  change  significantly  as  a  result  of 
technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives 
are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold 
will be written off or written down. 

Income tax 
The consolidated entity is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgement is required 
in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary 
course of business for  which the ultimate tax determination is  uncertain. The consolidated  entity recognises liabilities for 
anticipated  tax  audit  issues  based  on  the  consolidated  entity's  current  understanding  of  the  tax  law. Where  the  final  tax 
outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax 
provisions in the period in which such determination is made. 

Employee benefits provision 
As discussed in note 2, the liability for employee benefits expected to be settled more than 12 months from the reporting 
date  are  recognised  and  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  to  be  made  in  respect  of  all 
employees  at  the  reporting  date.  In  determining  the  present  value  of  the  liability,  estimates  of  attrition  rates  and  pay 
increases through promotion and inflation have been taken into account. 

Accounting for debt for equity transactions 
A  judgement  has  been  made  for  the  applicable  accounting  treatment  with  respect  to  current  period  debt  for  equity 
transactions  with  a  significant  shareholder.  The  judgement  applied  was  based  on  facts  and  circumstances  of  the 
transaction, resulting in the accounting at cost of equity issued as opposed to fair value. 

Note 4. Operating segments 

Identification of reportable operating segments 
The  Company  operated  predominately  in  the  confocal  microscopes  industry  within  Australia.  AASB  8  requires  operating 
segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about the components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by 
the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The board 
reviews the Company as a whole in the business segment of confocal microscopes within Australia. The majority of sales 
revenues  are  attributed to  Germany,  being 98.4%, and Australia  1.6%. There  is  one customer that contributes revenues 
greater than 10%, which totalled $1.312 million during the financial year.

* Transactions relate to non-cash debt to equity transactions issued to satisfy outstanding liabilities. 

Ordinary shares 
Ordinary  shares  entitle  the  holder  to  participate  in  dividends  and  the  proceeds  on  the  winding  up  of  the  company  in 
proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the 
company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. 

On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each 
share shall have one vote. 

Share buy-back 
There is no current on-market share buy-back. 

Capital risk management 
The consolidated  entity's objectives  when managing  capital  is to safeguard  its  ability  to continue as  a  going concern, so 
that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure 
to reduce the cost of capital. 

Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated 
as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. 

In  order  to  maintain  or  adjust  the  capital  structure,  the  consolidated  entity  may  adjust  the  amount  of  dividends  paid  to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value  adding  relative  to  the  current  company's  share  price  at  the  time  of  the  investment.  The  consolidated  entity  is  not 
actively pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its  existing businesses in 
order to maximise synergies. 

The  consolidated  entity  is  subject  to  certain  financing  arrangements  covenants  and  meeting  these  is  given  priority  in  all 
capital  risk  management  decisions.  There  have  been  no  events  of  default  on  the  financing  arrangements  during  the 
financial year. 

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2016 Annual Report.

Note 20. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The Group's principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and short-term deposits, loans and, from 
time to time, convertible notes and derivatives. 

In  the  context  of  the  Group’s  overall  risk  profile,  financial  instruments  do  not  represent  the  most  significant  exposure. 
Commercial  risk  associated  with  our  business  partnerships,  technology  risk  around  future  development  and  market  risk 
relating  to  adoption  of  the  technology  will  have  considerably  more  impact  on  our  risk  profile  than  the  risks  relating  to 
financial instruments. 

The Group monitors its exposure to key financial risks, principally currency and liquidity risk, with the objective of achieving 
the Group's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 20. Financial instruments (continued) 

The  Group  enters  into  derivative  transactions  from  time  to  time,  mainly  forward  currency  contracts.  The  purpose  is  to 
manage  the  currency  risks  arising  from  the  Group's  operations.  These  derivatives  provide  economic  hedges,  but  do  not 
qualify  for  hedge  accounting  and  are  based  on  limits  set  by  the  Board.  It  is,  and  has  been  throughout  the  period  under 
review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. 

The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are foreign currency risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and 
credit risk. The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These 
include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risk and assessments of market forecasts for 
interest  and  foreign  exchange  rates.  Liquidity  risk  is  monitored  through  the  development  of  future  rolling  cash  flow 
forecasts and regular internal reporting. There is a  lesser degree  of risk management in relation to interest rate risk and 
credit risk, as these are considered to have less capacity to materially impact the Group’s financial position at the present 
time.  

The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below. Primary responsibility for 
identification  and  control  of  financial  risks  rests  with  the  Board.  It  reviews  and  agrees  policies  for  managing  each  of  the 
risks, including the use of derivatives, hedging cover of foreign currency, credit allowances, and future cash flow forecast 
projections. 

Details  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  and  methods  adopted,  including  the  criteria  for  recognition,  the  basis  of 
measurement  and  the  basis  on  which  income  and  expenses  are  recognised,  in  respect  of  each  class  of  financial  asset, 
financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements. 

Market risk 

Foreign currency risk 
As nearly all of the Group’s sales revenue, as well as some expenses and inventory purchases, are denominated in United 
States  Dollars  and  Euro,  the  Group's  statement  of  financial  position  can  be  affected  by  significant  movements  in  these 
exchange rates. At 30 June 2017, there were no economic hedges in place in respect of net foreign currency exposures, 
as there were no bank facilities in place.  

The  carrying  amount  of  the  consolidated  entity's  foreign  currency  denominated  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  at 
the reporting date were as follows:

Management  believe  the  balance  date  risk  exposures  are  representative  of  the  risk  exposure  inherent  in  the  financial

Price risk 
The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant price risk. 

Interest rate risk 
The Group's exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's borrowings and cash and cash equivalents. 
The impact of movements in interest rates is not material in the context of the Group’s operations or trading results.

Interest rates during 2016/2017 continued a downward trend, with official rates remaining at historical lows at year end. At 
balance date, the economic outlook in Australia  is similarly steady,  with sentiment on future interest rates remaining flat, 
suggesting the prospect of modest increases in the medium term. On this basis, a possible movement in rates from -0.25% 
to +0.50% has been adopted as a reasonably possible movement in rates. The movements in net loss are due to higher 
and  lower  amounts  of  interest  received  from  interest  bearing  cash  balances.  There  is  no  movement  in  other 
comprehensive income as there are no derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2017 

Note 20. Financial instruments (continued) 

Credit risk 
Credit  risk  arises  from  the  financial  assets  of  the  Group,  which  comprise  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  trade  and  other 
receivables  and  derivative  instruments.  The  Group's  exposure  to  credit  risk  arises  from  potential  default  of  the  counter 
party,  with  a  maximum  exposure  equal  to  the  carrying  amount  of  these  instruments.  Exposure  at  balance  date  is 
addressed in each applicable note. The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure. The Group 
trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties, and as such collateral is not requested nor is it the Group's policy to 
securitise its trade and other receivables. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are 
subject to credit verification procedures including an assessment of their independent credit  rating, financial position, past 
experience  and  industry  reputation.  Risk  limits  are  set  for  each  individual  customer,  and  are  regularly  monitored.  In 
addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is 
not  significant.  There  is  no  significant  concentration  of  credit  risk  in  the  Group’s  current  trading  position. With  respect  to 
credit  risk  arising  from  the  other  financial  assets  of  the  Group,  which  comprise  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  the  Group’s 
exposure to credit risk arises from the possibility of default of the counter party. This is considered unlikely as the Group 
places cash and cash equivalents only with recognised Australian trading banks. 

Liquidity risk 
The  Group's  objective  is  to  maintain  adequate  funding  of  its  activities.  Prior  to  May  2009,  all  capital  financing  has  been 
derived from issues of equity. Since May 2009, the Group has from time to time, issued convertible notes, introducing debt 
finance to the funding mix. Capital management is a process of monitoring cash reserves and forecast cash requirements, 
and there are no externally imposed capital requirements. 

The  contractual  maturities  of  the  Group's  and  parent  entity's  financial  assets  and  liabilities  set  out  in  the  table  are 
equivalent  to  the  maturity  analysis  of  financial  assets  and  liability  based  on  management's  expectation.  The  amounts 
disclosed in the financial statements reflect the expected maturity of assets and liabilities. 

Trade  payables  and  other  financial  liabilities  mainly  originate  from  investments  in  working  capital,  principally  inventories 
and trade receivables. These assets are considered in the Group's overall liquidity risk, which is monitored through review 
of forecasts of liquidity reserves on the basis of expected cash flow.  

The  cash  and  cash  equivalent  balance  classified  as  being  capable  of  settlement  within  90  days  includes  term  deposits 
which are secured by the bank (refer note 7). These amounts could be released within six months upon cancellation of the 
underlying bank facilities, or upon a re-negotiation of the security arrangements, for example, by providing a charge over 
assets other than cash. 

The Group’s activities are funded from its cash reserves and convertible notes. There are no unused credit facilities. Bank 
facilities are non credit lines, details of which are disclosed in note 15.  

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities 

The methods for estimating fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial statements, and unless specifically 
stated, carrying value approximates fair value for all financial instruments. 

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a 
current  transaction  between  willing  parties,  other  than  in  a  forced  or  liquidation  transaction.  Management  has  assessed 
that  the  fair  value  of  cash  and  short  term  deposits,  trade  receivables,  and  trade  payables  approximate  their  carrying 
amount due to the short term nature of the instruments.

Transactions with Subsidiaries 

Inter-company transactions during the financial  year between the parent entity, Optiscan Imaging Limited and subsidiary, 
Optiscan Pty Ltd amounted to $3,305,357 (2016: $1,554,388). Outstanding balances at  year-end are unsecured, interest 
free and settlement occurs in cash. The balances are classified current by the parent entity. An impairment assessment is 
undertaken  each  financial  year  by  examining  the  financial  position  of  the  subsidiaries  to  determine  whether  there  is 
objective evidence that a related party receivable is impaired. When such objective evidence exists, an impairment loss is 
recognised.  

Transactions with Directors 

In December 2016, a  loan  of $600,000  provided by an entity associated  with  non-executive Director,  Mr. Ian Mann,  was 
converted to share capital through the issuance of 24,000,000 shares. Interest of $35,000 in respect of this loan was paid 
in August 2016 and the final interest payment of $26,315 was paid in February 2017.  

In the prior financial  year in December 2015, an entity associated with Non-executive Director, Mr. Ian Mann, provided a 
loan of $300,000 having a first charge over the company and interest charge of 15% which was subsequently restructured 
on 29 February 2016. Another entity, also associated with Mr Ian Mann, refinanced that loan at 10% on 29 February 2016, 
injected an additional $200,000 on that date with a further $100,000 advanced on 27 April 2016. The first charge over the 
company of the second facility was made subordinate to the 29 April 2016 R&D facility. No establishment, penalty or any 
other kind of fees were charged on either related party loan.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Optiscan Imaging 
Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion  

We have audited the financial report of Optiscan Imaging Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries 
(collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 
2017, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in 
equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, 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 Group is in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, including: 

(i) 

giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 
2017 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

(ii) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor 
independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the 
Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional 
Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

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

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our 
audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a 
separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed 
the matter is provided in that context. 

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 
Financial Report section of our report, including in relation to these matters.  Accordingly, our audit 
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures 
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying 
financial report.

Going concern 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

For the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group 
recorded a loss of $2.9 million and a cash 
outflow from operations of $3.4 million. As at 30 
June 2017 the Group had cash reserves of $0.7 
million as disclosed in Note 7. 

Notwithstanding the above, the Group has 
prepared the financial report on the going 
concern basis which assumes continuity of 
normal operations into the foreseeable future. 

The Group prepared a cashflow forecast for the 
period to 30 September 2018 which underpins 
the assessment and has performed sensitivity 
analysis in respect of key assumptions.  A key 
assumption supporting this forecast is 
completion of capital raisings and the continued 
generation of third party sales.  

Our assessment of the Group’s conclusion that 
the Group is a going concern is a key audit 
matter given the significant judgement involved 
in estimating future cashflows of the Group. 

Note 2 of the financial report contain disclosures 
with respect to the going concern assumption. 

We obtained the Group’s going concern assessment 
and supporting cashflow forecasts and sensitivity 
analysis models, noting that these had been 
approved by the Board of Directors. 

We evaluated the Group’s future cash flow forecasts 
and the process by which the cash flows were 
prepared. Our procedures included: 

  We confirmed funding received from capital 

transactions post year-end; 

  We assessed key assumptions against 

supporting evidence and considered the 
historical reliability of the Group’s cashflow 
forecasting process; 

  We enquired with key management personnel 
as to the forecast revenue and the forecast 
expenditure; and 

  We evaluated the revenue expectations made 
by the Group by assessing whether these 
estimates were supported by enforceable 
arrangements with commercial partners. 

We performed additional sensitivity analysis 
adjusting key revenue and cost assumptions. 

We considered the adequacy of going concern 
related disclosures made in Note 2 of the financial 
report.

Recognition of revenue  

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group has an existing collaboration contract 
for the development of and sale of prototype 
miniaturised confocal microscope systems. 
There is a risk of improper revenue recognition, 
particularly with cut-off at period end dates, 
given that revenue from the contract is 
recognised based on achieving specified 
contracted milestones. 

Note 2 of the financial report outlines the 
Group’s accounting policy with respect to 
revenue recognition. 

Revenue recognition is a key audit matter due to 
the complexity of the contractual terms including 
the judgements applied in meeting milestone 
arrangements.  

Our procedures included an assessment of the 
contract to understand the terms and conditions for 
the Group to deliver services under the contract and 
the timing of revenue recognition.  

We performed testing of the service deliverables as 
required by the contract and, on a sample basis, 
tested whether the revenue recognised was based on 
completion of services in the reporting period to 
support the cut-off of revenue recognised.  

We assessed a sample revenue transactions 
recognised by agreeing to third party delivery 
confirmations and agreed cash receipts to bank 
statements and customer milestone confirmations. 

We also assessed application of the Group’s revenue 
recognition accounting policy as disclosed in Note 2 
with respect to this contract. 

Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

As part of our procedures, we inspected the 
shareholders agreement relating to the debt to 
equity transaction and considered shareholder 
approval of the transaction at the 2016 Annual 
General Meeting.  

We assessed the equity value of the shares issued to 
other comparable equity market transactions the 
Group entered into during the period, and we 
assessed whether the treatment was in accordance 
with Australian Accounting Standards and 
accounting interpretations.  

We also assessed the adequacy of the disclosures in 
respect of this transaction as detailed in note 25 of 
the financial report.  

As disclosed in note 25, the Group held a 
financial liability with a related party of a 
Director for a total outstanding amount of $0.6 
million. The Director is a direct shareholder of 
the Group. 

During the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group 
completed a debt for equity swap for the 
outstanding financial liability with the Director’s 
related party, resulting in a total of 24 million 
fully paid ordinary shares being issued in order 
to satisfy the outstanding liability of $0.6 million, 
at an issue price of 2.5 cents per share.  

The financial liability was extinguished and 
equity instruments issued were recognised at the 
carrying amount of the financial liability. 
Accordingly no gain or loss was recognised on 
consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income. 

The matter was significant to our audit as the 
amount is material and the treatment, including 
the assessment of equity value and transaction 
with a significant shareholder, is complex.

Accounting for share based payment arrangements 

Why significant 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

In performing our procedures we assessed the terms 
of the share based payment arrangements issued 
during the period including accounting for 
modifications to the existing arrangements for the 
Chief Executive Officer. 

We involved our valuation specialists to assess the 
key input assumptions such as volatility rates and 
vesting period included in the valuations. 

We assessed the methodology used by the Group in 
valuing the share based payment arrangements. 

We assessed the expense recorded on the 
consolidated statement of comprehensive income for 
the share based payment arrangements. 

We assessed whether the disclosure in note 31 in 
relation to the arrangements was adequate and 
whether the calculations complied with Australian 
Accounting Standards.  

The Group issued options to directors and 
certain executive management under a share 
based compensation plan.  Further to this, equity 
options were issued to a third party as 
compensation for services in relation to a capital 
transaction. These arrangements have differing 
terms and conditions that give rise to different 
accounting outcomes. In addition, modification 
to the Chief Executive Officer’s existing share 
option agreement plans was approved during the 
period as disclosed in note 31.   

Share based payment arrangements require 
judgemental assumptions including volatility rate 
and expected life in determining the fair value of 
the arrangements and the expensing of that fair 
value over the estimated service period.  

In accounting for these transactions, the Group 
performed Black Scholes valuations to calculate 
the expense.  

Details of the share based payment 
arrangements offered to directors, certain 
executive management and the third party, as 
well modification to existing option plans, are 
disclosed in the Remuneration Report and Note 
31 to the financial report. 

The audit of the share based payment 
arrangements and the associated expense is a 
key audit matter due to the judgements required 
in determining their fair value and the expensing 
of that fair value over the service period. 

Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report  

The Directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the 
financial report and the 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 upon the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a 
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to 
fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report  

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an 
audit conducted in accordance with 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 
judgment 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 Group’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 Group’s ability to continue as a going 
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in 
our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are 
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up 
to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to 
cease to continue as a going concern.  

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.

 

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

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

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical 
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related 
safeguards. 

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

Report on Audit of the Remuneration Report 

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Responsibilities
