During the 2019 Financial Year, PainChek has made considerable progress on commercialisation of the
PainChek® Adult “Dementia” App for operators in the Residential Aged Care (“RAC”) sector within Australia.
We have clearly established PainChek as a novel and effective way of assessing and monitoring pain at a
time when institutional care of the elderly is coming under increasing scrutiny. This is reflected in over
10,500 RAC beds being contracted to implement our solution as at 30 June 2019, and the announcement
of Australian Government funding of $5 million to support the roll out of the technology in the RAC sector.
We have also commenced international expansion including announcing a distribution partnership with
the leading aged care systems provider, Person Centred Software, in the UK. We have made progress with
the FDA in establishing a path to regulatory approval of our Dementia App in the US market.
In parallel we continue to develop our technology with the assistance of our partners, and signed a research
agreement with Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Melbourne, for a clinical trial of our new Infant
App. We believe the market opportunity for assessment of pain in young children is very significant.
We have achieved all of the above with a small, hardworking team of people, and with a tight control of
expenditures as we established market validity for our technology. Our achievements have been positively
reflected in our share price which rose from 5.6 cents at prior year end to 20 cents at 30 June 2019. To
support our plans for FY2020 we raised additional capital of $4.15m in June 2019 at a price of 14.5 cents.
The Managing Directors report which follows provides more detail on the initiatives undertaken during
the year and the exciting plans we have going forward.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank all of our shareholders for continuing to support
the Company.
Yours sincerely,
John Murray
Chairman
Managing Director’s Report
Review of Operations
Our Mission is to give a voice to people who cannot verbalise their pain
The PainChek® App uses cameras in smartphones and tablets to capture a brief video of the person, which
is analysed in real time using facial recognition software to detect the presence of facial micro- expressions
that are indicative of the presence of pain. These objective measures are combined with a behavioral
checklist to assess pain severity scores for adults who cannot verbalise their pain or a child who has not
yet learnt to speak.
The PainChek® Adult App has been TGA and CE mark cleared for use as a Class I medical device. During
the past 12 months the PainChek® Adult App has been successfully commercialized in Australia and
launched into international markets including UK and Singapore. In April 2019 the Morrison Federal
Government announced $5M of funding to accelerate the adoption of PainChek across the 100,000
people living with Dementia in Residential Aged Care facilities in Australia.
The Company is currently going through an FDA De Novo application for approval of the PainChek® Adult
App in the US market. An Infant version of the App is currently undergoing clinical trials with the Murdoch
Research Institute at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Melbourne.
Initial market Opportunity:
At a global level there are 50 Million people living with dementia with projections estimated to grow to
75 Million by 2025. It is estimated there are on average three carers for each person with dementia and
it is the carers who are the primary users of the PainChek® App.
Dementia is currently the second major cause of death globally (after cardiovascular disease) and is
projected to become the leading cause of death during this period. In addition, it is documented that
between 10% to 30% of hospital beds are occupied by people living with dementia.
Global government initiatives are being put in place to manage this healthcare challenge and provide
better care for people living with dementia across the Residential Aged Care and Homecare settings
(Consumer Directive Care).
The Company has initially entered the Aged Care market as this is where the need for better pain
assessment is at its greatest and we plan to expand into the other healthcare market segments in the
coming year.
Australian market Sales Development:
PainChek has enjoyed a very positive year during which we have established the fundamentals of a
sustainable Software as a Service (SaaS) global business model.
In the FY18/19 reporting period the Company has increased the number of Australian Residential Aged
Care (RAC) contracted beds from 338 to 10,590 and the number of contracted Aged Care facilities from 5
to 142. In addition, the cumulative number of PainChek® clinical assessments has grown from 2,000 to
more than 36,000 in the same period reflecting continued strong take up and clinical utility of the App.
Major new clients acquired during the year included;
•
•
•
1,000 bed license agreement with Churches of Christ in Queensland who own and operate 28
Queensland RAC homes.
750 bed license agreement with The Baptist Union of Queensland - Carinity across their 11 RAC
facilities
2,000 bed license agreement with IRT Aged Care Centres across 20 RAC facilities
In addition, existing customer Allity Pty Ltd committed to a full rollout of PainChek® across all of their 34
facilities during this coming year.
These following charts are a summary of progress during the year. These figures exclude the direct impact
of the Federal Government funded trial announced on 29 April 2019. The trial and grant paperwork are
currently being finalized with the Department of Health Government, and we are scheduling an October
2019 start for a one-year funding period.

* Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) and Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) includes subscription revenue on contracts of a
minimum of 12 months and excludes any on-off fees for support and training. MRR and ARR are based on contracts signed as of
quarter end assuming contracts are fully implemented and include two non-RAC contracts (Dementia Support Australia and
Southern Cross WA). The PainChek® monthly Revenue per Licensed Bed (RLB) across the RAC customers based on the
agreements signed to date is in the range of $5 per month, and the Revenue per Active Resident (RAR) is in the range of $10 per
month based on actual resident usage. See ASX release dated 31 July 2018.
Revenue recognized in the Company’s financial statements is based on contracted beds that have been
implemented and are active using the PainChek® App. This is consistent with the accounting standard for
recognition of such revenue. At 30th June 2019 there were 3,564 active licensed beds with an ARR of
$234k. Detailed project plans for implementation are agreed with clients who have a significant number
of facilities (such as Allity), and therefore there can be a delay before the beds are activated and revenue
is then recognized. Due to the surge in newly signed contracts during June 2019 we carried over more
than 7,000 contracted new beds to be implemented during FY 2020 which will significantly increase the
recognized revenue results in the following reporting periods.
Australian Government Funding:
On 29th April 2019 (see ASX release of same date) the Morrison Federal Government announced that it
will invest $5M to fund the implementation of the company’s PainCheck® App in Australian residential
aged care.
The funding makes provision for a universal PainChek® access license for the more than 1,000 Residential
Aged Care Providers in Australia and their 100,000 residents living with dementia for a one-year period.
The funded program is scheduled to commence in October 2019 and will continue for a one-year period
from the commencement date.
“Better pain identification and better medication management means a better quality of life for people
receiving aged care. This trial will complement the reforms already announced by the Morrison
Government to improve medication management and provide a record boost to dementia prevention,
treatment and support” said Minister Ken Wyatt.
This significant investment is expected to trigger widespread and long-term use of the PainChek® app
within Australian Residential Aged Care and is positively impacting our international expansion program.
As a business we have been making good progress by approaching aged care providers individually, but
this endorsement and funding assistance is expected to accelerate the penetration into Australian
Residential Aged Care to a whole new level.
PainChek® is also working closely with the Department of Health to collect resident outcome data
including demographic and clinical outcomes during the trial as part of the government’s strategic analysis
of the Aged Care sector. This is an additional benefit that will come out of the funded trial.
We are well positioned to roll out PainChek ®rapidly through a range of training programs and partners
and on-line training capabilities and we will be working to implement PainChek® as quickly as possible
across nominated aged care homes.
This program will also help refine how the app gets integrated into every day clinical care in the aged
residential setting working with our current and future care management system partners in Australia.
Integration Partners:
The Company now has integration agreements finalized with the six major RAC care management systems
in Australia and with Person Centred Software in the UK. These agreements facilitate the automated
documentation of PainChek® for more than 80% of the 220,000 Australian aged care beds and more than
40,000 beds in the UK. The benefit is rapid, point of care pain assessments that eliminate duplication of
effort for carers giving them more time to focus on resident care.
PainChek® Client Feedback and Clinical Outcomes:
The Company has reached the stage where our growing base of RAC clients are now able to share the
clinical benefits of the use of PainChek® App and the impact to their residents’ care. We have released
the first of a number of PainChek® case studies in Residential Aged Care that were developed in
collaboration with our clients. These are available for review on the Company’s website. The following
is an example of the clinical benefits seen by the McLean Care Residential Home in Inverell, Queensland
from the case study report.
Use of PainChek® at the McLean Care Residential Home in Inverell commenced in April 2018. The
benefits identified at this location include:
• PainChek® became the standard tool for assessing pain and evaluating pain management strategies in
•
residents with dementia.
Significant improvement in pain management and residents’ behaviours, together with significant
reduction in psychotropic prescription and administration as a result of PainChek® assessments.
• An increase in staff awareness of pain management, and increased staff confidence when dealing with
pain in residents with cognitive impairment or dementia.
• Ease of access and administration - with easier access to stored assessments and electronic charts,
there has been increased and more effective input from GPs.
Situated in the NSW Northern Tablelands, the McLean Care® Residential Care facility is a
160-bed home located in Inverell. The facilities at Inverell offer many options to suit the
individual needs of those seeking aged care help. Specifically, the Hector Wing at Inverell
provides a 17-bed state-of-the-art, purpose-driven facility for seniors who are living with
dementia. This is strongly supported by their 24-hour dedicated dementia care team.
Eight residents living in the Hector Wing were all on a course of regular psychotropic
medication for their behaviours. PainChek® was subsequently introduced with the aim of
more accurately assessing and recording residents’ pain levels, so that pain relief is
adjusted, and psychotropic medications are reduced, which would also result in
improvement in their behaviours.
Thorough education and training in pain assessment facilitated the widespread use of
PainChek® by staff across the facility, which has now become the standard tool for
evaluating pain management strategies in residents with dementia.
Regular, scheduled use of PainChek® supported effective pain management for residents.
Residents’ behaviours have been recognised as a response to pain as a result of using
PainChek®. Significant reductions in psychotropic medications were evident among all
residents, as a result of effective pain relief. This has also produced significant
improvement in residents’ behaviours.
PainChek® assessments and reporting enabled the staff to more accurately treat each
resident. The usage, accuracy and positive outcomes of PainChek® assessments have
increased staff awareness about pain and pain signs (for example, agitation and
aggression) in residents with dementia, and enhanced their confidence in dealing with
residents’ pain. These benefits have also improved communication with registered nurses
and GPs.
PainChek® functionalities (such as, the pain assessment log and pain chart) allow better
tracking of residents’ pain over time. The ease of administration and electronic reporting
of PainChek® (for example, access to stored assessments) enabled greater and quicker
accessibility of pain scores to GPs to allow timely and more accurate medication
adjustments.
Other local market segments:
Having established a solid based within Australian RAC market, we are continuing to explore partnerships
and distribution channels – locally and internationally to broaden the PainChek® Adult App use into other
market segments. We will be focusing on hospitals, GP, home care operators and home carer services
during the FY19/20.
International Expansion:
The Company reached a key milestone in its international expansion through the signing of a distribution
agreement with Person Centred Software in the UK.
Under the agreement Person Centred Software are distributing the PainChek® App to their UK client
base through their sales, marketing and service organisation. PainChek® integration into Person
Centred Software’s Mobile Care Monitoring system will provide carers with seamless pain
assessment and monitoring of their residents living within Aged Care.
Person Centred Software is based in the UK and supplies Care Management systems to more than 1,200
aged care providers, servicing over 40,000 residents. PainChek® integration into Person Centred
Software’s industry leading product range has been completed.
To support the UK market development, we have registered PainChek® UK Ltd as a wholly owned
subsidiary of PainChek® Ltd and recruited Peter Shergill as the Head of the UK Business Development.
Peter starts with PainChek® UK Ltd on 30th September 2019 and he will support the PCS UK sales drive and
our direct sales into the UK market including the hospital sector. The UK base will also provide a platform
for broader European market expansion in the future.
We completed our first direct sales into Singapore with Allium Healthcare in July 2019 and have made
positive progress with our integration partners for new sales opportunities in New Zealand. We continue
to receive strong interest from other international markets, further expanding our commercial progress
and global market reach.
Federal Drug Administration:
We had a positive face to face meeting with FDA in Washington DC in June 2019 as part of the De Novo
regulatory process including the demonstration of the PainChek® App and the AI capability. PainChek®
was confirmed as a De Novo classification as there is no other similar regulated medical device in the US
market. The existing PainChek® Australian based research data was positively received and we obtained
guidance from the FDA in terms of additional validation requirements to complete the De Novo regulatory
classification. We are currently finalizing the additional validation work for review with FDA. This work is
budgeted and we continue to project FDA clearance for the PainChek® Adult App during 2020.
Patents:
In July 2019 PainChek® was granted a US patent by the United States Patent Office (Patent number
US10398372) allowing PainChek® to protect the intellectual property of its invention in the United States.
The US patent gives PainCheck® exclusive rights to exclude others from making, using, selling or importing
the invention for 20 years from the filing date in the US (17 February 2017).
Our ongoing De Novo regulatory application confirms PainChek® as a first in kind from a regulatory
standpoint in the US. The granting of the US patent confirms that PainChek® is also first in kind from an
intellectual property standpoint.
From a business perspective, the US is the largest medical device market in the world and there are more
than six million people living with dementia. Establishing our intellectual property in the US is a crucial
step forward as part of protecting and growing the PainChek® brand internationally.
We continue to make positive progress with our national patent filings for the PainChek® App in all other
jurisdictions including UK, Europe, Japan, China and Australia.
PainChek® Children’s App:
The PainChek® Children’s App serves a potentially even larger market than the Adult App.
Globally there are more than 400 million children at any one time between the age of 0-3 years. Due to
the rapid changes and development in children’s faces, the PainChek® Children’s App is scheduled to be
delivered in 3 age group versions with the youngest Infant App (infants 0-1 years of age) being the first
developed and now undergoing clinical research.
A research agreement with Melbourne’s Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI) was signed in June
2019 and the PainChek® infants PainFaces™ clinical trial has officially commenced. MCRI are the largest
child health research institute in Australia, and one of top three worldwide and their campus partners
include Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne and University of Melbourne’s Department of Pediatrics.
The PainFaces™ study is being led by Professor Franz Babl (MCRI) and Associate Professor Di Crellin (MCRI)
in the Emergency Department (ED) of the Royal Children’s Hospital. In this new study the pain scores
derived using the PainChek® Infant App will be compared to those obtained using observational children’s
pain assessment tools by two independent assessors in 100 infants undergoing painful procedures within
the ED. The clinical study completion is dependent on the recruitment of the 100 children and is currently
projected to be Q3 FY 2020.
The results and learnings from the research will support applications for regulatory approval of PainChek®
Infant’s App with the Therapeutics Goods Administration (TGA), CE Mark, Europe, and the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) in the USA.
Shareholder Support:
The Company raised new capital during the past year to fund the growth plans. We thank our
shareholders for their continued support and those option holders who elected to exercise their options
during the year which has provided additional capital.
Summary
The fundamentals for the PainChek® business have been put in place in two short years. The PainChek®
Adult App has been clinically proven, regulatory cleared and successfully launched into multiple markets
and is now Federal Government funded in Australia. More than 40,000 pain assessments (as of July 2019)
have been conducted within Australian aged care, with an increasing number of case study reports
confirming the clinical and cost benefit. The Company has developed the basis of a sustainable, profitable
business model that can be leveraged across global markets.
Likely Developments and Overview of Group Strategy
The Company will continue with the commercialization of the PainChek® Adult App in Australia. The
Australian federal government funded roll out in the next 12 months will be a key focus along with building
strong outcomes data to support long term Aged Care funding. This will rapidly accelerate the business
through the next year.
We will continue to broaden the use of the PainChek® Adult App into new market sectors in Australia
including the hospital market, GP primary care and home care market sectors.
From an international perspective, we will focus on further penetrating our existing presence in the UK,
Singaporean and New Zealand markets and extending our geographic reach into selected mainland
Europe and other targeted Asian markets during the next year. We continue to receive strong overseas
interest from potential distribution partners which can support and fast track our international market
strategy.
We continue with the clinical work required by the FDA to complete the PainChek® De Novo submission
for regulatory clearance with FDA in the United States.
We will complete the PainChek® Infants clinical study with Melbourne Children’s hospital during this next
period and prepare for the regulatory clearances and initial market introduction.
Given the recent patent grant by the US Patent Office, and the ongoing feedback from the other national
patent offices, we are in a good position to receive similar patent grants in Australia, UK, Europe, Japan
and China.
We will continue to build the PainChek® team’s capabilities to deliver on these strategies in an effective
and efficient manner during the next period.
The PainChek® management team and board are highly committed to achieving the company’s Mission,
and delivering on the future commercial milestones and, in doing so, consolidate our position as the new
gold standard for pain assessment in multiple healthcare markets.

Review of operations
The PainChek® technology uses cameras in smartphones and tablets to capture a brief video of the
person, which is analysed in real time using facial recognition software to detect the presence of facial
micro-expressions that are indicative of the presence of pain. The PainChek® technology has been TGA
and CE Mark cleared for use as a class 1 medical device to assess pain in people who are unable to
verbalise, such people with dementia.
The PainChek® Adult App has been clinically proven and regulatory cleared, and in April 2019 the Federal
Government announced it would invest $5M to facilitate the implementation of the PainChek® app in
Australian residential aged care centers (RAC’s). More than 40,000 pain assessments have been
conducted in Australian aged care, with an increasing number of case study reports confirming the
clinical and cost benefit.
There are now more than 10,500 beds in 140 RAC facilities that have been contracted with annual
subscription agreements in Australia and annual recurring revenue (ARR) exceeding $0.5 million when
implemented. These numbers are projected to accelerate with the government funding initiative and
international expansion.
Revenue recognized in the Company’s financial statements is based on contracted beds that have been
implemented and are active using the PainChek App. At 30 June 2019 there were 3,564 active licensed
beds in RACs with an ARR of $234k, up from 338 beds at 30 June 2018. There was a backlog of over 7,000
contracted beds at 30 June 2019 planned to be implemented after the year end. The PainChek monthly
Revenue per Licensed Bed (RLB) across the RAC customers based on the agreements signed to date is in
the range of $5 per month, and the Revenue per Active Resident (RAR) is in the range of $10 per month
based on actual resident usage.
We have entered international markets through a distribution partnership in the UK with PCS UK and
through finalizing other international agreements to address the large market opportunities and the 50
million people living with dementia globally.
We have commenced the Children’s App clinical trial with the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, one
of the top three leading children’s research centres globally. The Children’s App serves an even larger
market, where globally there are more than 400 million children between the aged of 0-2 years.
These achievements are a reflection of the transformational impact PainChek App has on pain
management and the provision of better medication treatment for residents living with dementia and
other communication difficulties.
Likely Developments and Overview of Group Strategy
The Company will continue with the commercialisation of the PainChek® technology in Australia and
globally. We are receiving overseas interest including UK, Germany and US and Asia, which will support
our international market expansion strategy.
We are currently finalizing the agreed additional clinical validation work required for de novo review with
FDA. This work is budgeted, and we continue to project FDA clearance for the PainChek® Adult App
during 2020.

PainChek Limited
The market segments being pursued by the Company include RAC Operators, Health Care Professionals,
Home Care Operators and Direct to Home Carers. In parallel, development of the next phase of the
Painchek App remains on track. This will be commercialised initially through a “shared care” model that
allows healthcare professionals to provide access to PainChek® for home dementia patient carers to use.
Good progress continues with the Kidds App . The PainFaces clinical study completion is dependent on
the recruitment of the 100 children and is currently projected to be completed in Q3 FY 2020. The
Results and learnings from the research will support applications for regulatory approval of PainChek®
Infant’s App with the Therapeutics Goods Administration (TGA), CE Mark, Europe, and the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) in the USA.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
Remuneration Policy
The remuneration policy of the Group has been designed to align director objectives with shareholder and
business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in
line with market rates. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and
effective in its ability to attract and retain the best Directors to run and manage the Company, as well as
create goal congruence between Directors and shareholders.
The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members is as follows:
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive Directors and other senior
staff members, was developed and approved by the Board.
In determining competitive remuneration rates, the Board considers local and international trends among
comparative companies and the industry generally so that executive remuneration is in line with market
practice and is reasonable in the context of Australian executive reward practices.
All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience),
superannuation and fringe benefits.
Performance Based Remuneration
The Company is a technology development entity and therefore speculative in terms of performance.
Consistent with attracting and retaining talented executives, Directors and senior executives are paid market
rates associated with individuals in similar positions within the same industry. Options, equity-based
performance incentives and cash bonus’ have been and may be further issued to provide a performance-
linked incentive component in the remuneration package for the Directors and for the future performance by
the Directors and key management personnel in managing the operations and strategic direction of the
Company. All remuneration paid to Directors is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Options are
valued using an appropriate valuation methodology. For details of Directors’ and executives’ interests in
options and performance rights at year end, refer to section (d) of this remuneration report.
Short term incentive
Generally paid in cash and structured, with a focus on delivery of specific short-term objectives aligned with
the company’s strategies and goals and the Executives role in meeting these targets.

Significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
PainChek Ltd (the “Group”) is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The
group’s principal activities are development and commercialization of mobile medical device
applications that provide pain assessment for individuals that are unable to communicate with their
carers.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance
with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, and complies
with other requirements of the law.
The financial information has been prepared on the accruals basis and is based on historical costs
and does not take into account changing money values. Cost is based on the fair values of the
consideration given in exchange for assets.
Statement of Compliance
The financial report was authorised for issue on 18 August 2019.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian
equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“AIFRS”). Compliance with AIFRS ensures
that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
Standards and Interpretations on issue not yet adopted
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory
for 30 June 2019 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s
assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.
Title of standard
AASB 16 Leases
Nature of change
Impact
AASB 16 was issued in February 2016. It will result in almost all leases being
recognised on the balance sheet, as the distinction between operating and
finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the
leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only
exceptions are short-term and low-value leases.
The accounting for lessors will not significantly change.
The standard will affect primarily the accounting for the Group’s operating
leases. As at the reporting date, the Group has no non-cancellable operating
lease commitments. It is therefore not yet possible to estimate the amount of
right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that will have to be recognised on
adoption of the new standard and how this may affect the Group’s profit or loss
and classification of cash flows going forward.
19
Title of standard
AASB 16 Leases
Mandatory
application
date/Date of
adoption by Group
Mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 July 2019. At this stage,
the Group does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date. The
Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and will likely not
restate comparative amounts for the year prior to first adoption.
PainChek Limited
Going concern basis
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in
the normal course of business.
As disclosed in the financial statements, the consolidated entity has net operating cash outflows for
the year of $3,074,896 ( 2018: $2,913,032) and as at 30 June 2019 has cash and cash equivalents of
$4,562,476 (30 June 2018: $3,606,115). The consolidated entity also generated a loss after tax of
$3,262,418 (2018: $4,810,532).
The ability of the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon
one or more of the following conditions:
receipt of research and development grants;
the ability of the consolidated entity to raise sufficient capital and when necessary; and
the successful commercialisation of its intellectual property in a manner that generates
sufficient operating cash inflows.
These conditions give rise to material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the
consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors believe that the going
concern basis of preparation is appropriate due to its recent history of raising capital and the
significant progress made on exploiting its intellectual property.
Should the consolidated entity be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to
realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at
amounts that differ from those stated in the financial report. This financial report does not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts or classification of liabilities and appropriate disclosures that may be necessary should the
consolidated entity be unable to continue as a going concern.
Adoption of New and Revised Standards
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period and
the group had to change its accounting policies as a result of adopting AASB 15 Revenue AASB 9
Financial Instruments. The impact of the adoption of this standard and the new accounting policies
are disclosed below. The other standards did not have any impact on the group’s accounting policies
and did not require retrospective adjustments.
Significant accounting policies of the Company
Set out below are the significant accounting policies that have been applied in the preparation of
the consolidated financial statements:
20
PainChek Limited
AABS 15 Contracts with Customers
The Company has adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 July 2018 which
resulted in changes in accounting policies. In accordance with the transition provisions in AASB 15,
the Company has adopted the new rules retrospectively however there was no material impact on
the amounts disclosed previously and as a result there has been no restatement required as a result
of reclassification or remeasurement. The Company’s updated accounting policies are shown below.
i)
Software subscriptions
Revenue from the sale of term (subscription) licences is recognised on a straight line basis over the
subscription term.
ii)
Training
Revenue from the provision of training services is recognised typically at a point in time when the
Company has provided training and has an enforceable right to payment for its performance
completed to date.
iii)
Software support (maintenance)
Revenue for software support is recognised on a straight line basis over the service period as
performance obligations require the company to respond to requests made by customers to provide
technical product support and unspecified updates, upgrades and enhancements on a when-
available and if-available basis.
iv)
Incremental Costs of obtaining Customer Contracts
Commissions on software subscriptions are capitalised and amortised over the term, where the
term is greater than 12 months.
v)
Contract Assets (Trade Receivables and Work in progress)
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the
ordinary course of business. They are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are
all classified as current. Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration
that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are
recognised at fair value. The Company holds the trade receivables with the objective to collect the
contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the
effective interest method.
Work in progress represents costs incurred and profit recognised for services that are in progress at
balance date and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for its performance completed
to date.
vi)
Unsatisfied performance obligations
The Company continues to recognise its contract liabilities under AASB 15 in respect of any
unsatisfied performance obligations, which are disclosed as Unearned revenue in the Statement of
Financial Performance.
vii)
Financing components
The Company does not recognise adjustments to transition prices or Contract balances where the
period between the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer and payment by
customer does not exceed one year.
The Company reviewed its prior year contracts and did not identify material adjustments in timing
and amounts recognised as revenue in prior years.
21
PainChek Limited
Revenue recognition – AASB118
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the company and
the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration
received or receivable.
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.
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.
Grants and other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is
established.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments – Impact of adoption
AASB 9 replaces the provisions of AASB 139 that relate to the recognition, classification and
measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments,
impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting.
The adoption of AASB 9 Financial Instruments from 1 January 2018 resulted in changes in
accounting policies. The new accounting policies are set out in note below. In accordance with the
transitional provisions in AASB 9(7.2.15) and (7.2.26), comparative figures have not been restated.
(i) Classification and Measurement
On 1 January 2018 (the date of initial application of AASB 9), the Group’s management has assessed
which business models apply to the financial assets held by the group and has classified its financial
instruments into the appropriate AASB 9 categories. There were no changes to the classification and
measurement of financial assets.
(ii) Impairment of financial assets
The Group has one type of financial asset that is subject to AASB 9’s new expected credit loss model,
being trade and other receivables.
The group was required to revise its impairment methodology under AASB. There was no material
impact of the change in impairment methodology on the group’s retained earnings and equity.
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of AASB 9, there
was no material impairment loss identified.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments – Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018
(i) Investments and other financial assets
Classification
From 1 January 2018, the group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement
categories:
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or
loss); and
those to be measured at amortised cost.
22
PainChek Limited
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI.
For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the
group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity
investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing
those assets changes.
Measurement
At initial recognition, the group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a
financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at
FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining
whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the group’s business model for
managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement
categories into which the group classifies its debt instruments:
Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash
flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost.
Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective
interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or
loss and presented in other gains/(losses), together with foreign exchange gains and losses.
Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss.
FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial
assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are
measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the
recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and
losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the
cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss
and recognised in other gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in
finance income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are
presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are presented as separate line item
in the statement of profit or loss.
FVPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A
gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognised in profit
or loss and presented net within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises.
Impairment
From 1 July 2018, the group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit loss associated with
its debt instruments carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied
depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables the group applies the simplified approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires
expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Management has
determined that assessment of expected credit loss associated with trade receivables is immaterial.
23
PainChek Limited
Fair Values
The fair values of Consolidated Entity’s financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their
carrying values due to short –term in nature. No financial assets or financial liabilities are readily
traded on organised markets in standardised form.
(a)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of all subsidiaries of the
Company and the results of all subsidiaries from the date that control was obtained. The
Company controls another entity when the Company is exposed to, or has the 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 fully transferred. They are
deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
The financial statement of the subsidiary is prepared for the same reporting period as the parent
company, using consistent accounting policies.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions,
income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been
eliminated in full.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A
change in ownership interest without a loss of control is accounted for as an equity transaction.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the
financial statements. Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-
controlling interests in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.
Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets
including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary, together with any
cumulative translation differences in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of
the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gains
or losses in profit or loss.
(b)
Income Tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount
expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws
used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance
date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an
asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the
transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries,
associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary
difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse
in the foreseeable future.
24
PainChek Limited
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-
forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward
of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises
from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor
taxable profit or loss; or
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries,
associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised
to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable
future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be
utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced
to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow
all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax
assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become
probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to
apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax
laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in
profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists
to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and
liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
(c)
Impairment of non – financial Assets
The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be
impaired.
If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the
Company makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount
is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an
individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of
those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to
be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash
generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating
unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired
and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are
recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless
the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a
revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that
previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such
indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss
25
PainChek Limited
is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s
recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying
amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit
or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a
revaluation increase.
After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s
revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful
life.
(d)
Share-based Payment Transactions
The cost of equity-settled transactions with employees is measured 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 a suitable option pricing model.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other
than conditions linked to the price of the shares of the Company.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in
equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending
on the date on which the relevant recipient of the equity becomes fully entitled to the award
(the vesting period).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until
vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Company’s
best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. No adjustment is
made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these
conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The profit or loss charge or
credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the
beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where
vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if
the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that
increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial
to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation,
and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new
award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date
that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the
original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
(e)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current
liabilities in the statement of financial position.
For the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash includes on hand and other funds held at
call net of bank overdrafts.

(f)
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 company 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.
(g)
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 to write off the net cost of each item of plant
and equipment over their expected useful lives as follows:
Plant and equipment
Less than 5 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if
appropriate, at each reporting date.
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future
economic benefit to theGroup. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal
proceeds are taken to profit or loss.
(h)
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group 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.
(i)
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 within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in current
liabilities in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
27
PainChek Limited
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 recognised in non-current liabilities, provided there is an unconditional
right to defer settlement of the liability. The liability is measured as the present value of
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the
reporting date.. Consideration is given to expect 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 corporatebonds with terms to maturity and currency that
match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which
they are incurred.
(j)
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.
(k)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the Group,
adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity, divided by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the Group,
adjusted for:
costs of servicing equity;
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been
outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares;
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary
shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result
from the dilution of potential ordinary shares divided by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
(l)
Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to
changes in presentation for the current financial year.
Where the Group retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective
restatement or reclassifies items in its financial statements, an additional (third) statement of
financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period in addition to the minimum
comparative financial statements is presented.
(m)
Significant accounting judgements and key estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these statements, the key estimates made by management in applying the
Company’s accounting policies have been applied to the valuation of share-based payments,
refer to note 14.

from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.
The board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management
objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the
authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the
objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function.
The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the
potential impacts of these risks on the Group where such impacts may be material. The board
receives monthly financial reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put
in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the
board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the
Group’s competitiveness and flexibility.
15.4 Market risk
Market risk for the Group arises from the use of interest bearing financial instruments. It is the
risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in interest rate (see 15.5 below).
15.5
Interest rate risk management
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for
both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end on the reporting period.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for
both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end on the reporting period.
If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant,
the Group’s loss for the year ended 30 June 2019 would increase/decrease by $45,00 (2018:
$36,000).
15.6 Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting
in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy
counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the
risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the
equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating
agencies where available and, if not available, the Group uses other publicly available financial
information and its own trading records to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and
the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of
transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties.
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-
ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

PainChek Limited
15.7 Liquidity risk management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has
established an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the
Group’s short-, medium- and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The
Group manages liquidity by maintaining adequate banking facilities, by continuously monitoring
forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and
liabilities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of PainChek Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of PainChek Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement
of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the financial report, 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 Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its
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 Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the
financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the
time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which
give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s
ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this
matter.

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters.
Revenue recognition and measurement
Key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Refer to Note 3 of the financial report and Note
1 for the accounting policy.
Revenue recognition was identified as a key
audit matter because:
the assessment of revenue recognition
and measurement required significant
auditor effort; and
the Group changed its accounting policy
on revenue recognition for the initial
adoption of the new revenue accounting
standard AASB 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.
Our audit procedures included, amongst others:
Assessing the revenue recognition
accounting policy for compliance with
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
For a sample of contracts, reviewing the
terms and conditions to ensure the
revenue was recognised in accordance
with the revenue recognition accounting
policy
Agreeing a sample of revenue
transactions to supporting
documentation such as invoices and
receipts
Performing analytical procedures to
understand movements and trends in
revenue against our expectations
Assessing the adequacy of the Group’s
disclosures within the financial
statements.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, 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 on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf
This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Report on the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
