CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

It  gives  me  pleasure  to  present  the  2022  Annual 
Report  for  PainChek  Limited  (ASX:  PCK)  as  we  reflect 
on our achievements over the past 12 months and the 
substantial opportunity that is ahead of us. 

We  continue  to  execute  our  growth  strategy  with 
focuses on maintaining and growing our market position 
for  adult  PainChek®  App  in  the  Residential  Aged  Care 
(RAC)  sector  in  Australia  and  New  Zealand,  gaining  a 
stronger foothold in international RAC markets, as well 
as in new verticals such as infant care, home care and 
hospital settings. I am proud to report progress across 
all these areas in FY22.

Our  proprietary  adult  pain  assessment  App  is  a  cost-
effective and clinically validated solution, which we have 
now successfully implemented in RAC in Australia, New 
Zealand, Singapore, UK and Ireland.  We have regulatory 
clearance for our adult App in these markets, as well as 
Europe and Canada, as a class 1 medical device. We have 
plans underway to achieve approval in other territories, 
including the lucrative United States market, to continue 
to grow our footprint across the globe. 

We  have  achieved  20  commercial 
integrations  of 
PainChek®  with  care  management  systems  partners 
across Australia, United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand 
and  Canada,  providing  access  to  470,000  RAC  beds 
across these markets, of which we now have more than 
126,000 contracted.

This  was  a  critical  year  for  our  company  as  we  had  to 
begin  the  transition  of  our  RAC  customers  in  Australia 
from  government  subsidised  use  of  PainChek®  to 
standard commercial terms. 

4 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

During  this  year  the  RAC  industry  remained  under 
considerable  stress,  still  recovering  from  the  Covid 
pandemic  and  experiencing  workforce  challenges. 
Nevertheless, we successfully commenced this transition 
with  approximately  28,000  licences  under  commercial 
terms  at  30  June  2022,  generating  Annual  Recurring 
Revenue  (ARR)  of  $1.4  million;  and  a  further  66,000 
aged care beds implemented which offers an additional 
$3.2M  of  potential  ARR  if  converted  to  commercial 
terms. About 1.3 million clinical pain assessments were 
conducted  in  Australian  aged  care  as  at  30  June  2022, 
undertaken by more than 8,000 PainChek-trained users.

On this strong foundation, we focused on building  our 
international  RAC  business  in  FY22  and  expanded  our 
resources  and  integration  partners  in  the  UK,  where 
we  have  4,000  out  of  7,500  RAC  contracted  beds 
implemented.  We also commenced development of the 
New Zealand market, contracting the third largest aged 
care provider across more than 1,000 RAC beds. 

We have developed an Infant PainChek® App to measure 
pain  in  children  who  are  pre-verbal.  Targeting  uniform 
geographical  regulatory  approvals  for  our  Infant  app, 
we’ve  built  commercial  integrations  and  partnerships 
critical to our go-to-market strategy. Market access for 
the Infant app in the US will position PainChek to align 
the  roll  out  of  this  technology  across  the  US,  Europe 
and  ANZ,  where  we  have  already  achieved  regulatory 
clearance.

During FY22, we developed our strategy and relationships 
in  the  home  care  and  hospital  markets  and  expect  to 
develop these important markets in FY23.

I would like to thank our hardworking team for their all 
efforts  during  another  challenging  year,  and  who  are 
currently progressing well with our FY23 initiatives.

I  would  also  like  to  thank  our  shareholders  who 
participated in the recent $3.0 million Share Placement 
and accompanying Entitlement Offer, which raised $1.6 
million. This funding will allow us to execute on our plans 
during FY23.

We  are  ready  to  capitalise  on  the  considerable 
opportunities ahead of us, and I hope you will continue 
to share the journey with us.

OPERATIONS REPORT

Principal Activities

The principal activity of the Company is the development 
and  commercialisation  of  mobile  medical  device 
applications  that  automate  intelligent  pain  assessment 
of individuals who are unable to communicate their pain 
with carers.

Financial and operational review

The loss of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2022, 
after  accounting  for  income  tax  benefit,  amounted  to 
$5,720,534 (2021 $6,063,647).  The year ended 30 June 
2022 operating results are attributed to the following:

•  Research    expense  of  $2,350,816  (30  June  2021: 

$2,652,106);

•  Share based payments in respect of options issued 
to Directors and employees of $549,191 (non-cash) 
(30 June 2021: $709,720 (non-cash)); and

•  Corporate and administration expenses of $2,775,117  
(30  June  2021:  $3,612,398,  which 
included  a 
provision  for  payroll  tax  assessment  of  $1,400,414 
relating to the year ended 30 June 2020).

Review of Operations

The 2022 financial year has seen PainChek reinforce its 
position in residential aged care within its home market 
of  Australia  while  making  important  strides  as  part  of 
the Company’s market expansion strategy. 

PainChek is now demonstrating commercial operations 
and sales in multiple markets, a clear path and strategy 
to become the global market leader with both its Adult 
and Infant pain assessment offerings.

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.  These  results 
are combined with other observational assessments to 
provide an overall pain score and pain severity level of 
the person being assessed. 

The  PainChek®  technology  has  regulatory  clearance  in 
TGA  (Australia),  CE  Mark  (Europe)  UK,  New  Zealand, 
Singapore  and  Canada  as  a  class  1  medical  device 
to  assess  pain  in  people  who  are  unable  to  reliably 
verbalise, such as people with dementia.

During  FY21  PainChek  developed  and  commercially 
launched  PainChek®  Universal,  which  has  the  same 
regulatory  market  clearances.  PainChek®  Universal  is 
a  complete  point-of-care  solution  that  combines  the 
existing PainChek® App with the Numerical Rating Scale 
(NRS) and data from PainChek® Analytics. This enables 
best-practice  pain  management  for  people  living  with 
pain  in  any  environment  —  from  those  who  cannot 
verbalise pain to those who can, and those who fluctuate 
between  the  two.  This  means  that  PainChek  is  now  a 
tool to assess and document pain for all people within 
aged care, hospital, and the home care environment.

8 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

This  time  12  months  ago,  PainChek  outlined 
several focuses for FY22, which included:

Maintaining and growing its position in  
the ANZ market including transition of 
customers onto commercial agreements

International  
market expansion

Enabling development of  
the infant market 

Accessing the home care  
and hospital markets 

PainChek has made significant inroads on each of these 
areas,  creating  the  platform  for  substantial  growth 
moving forward.

Maintaining & growing the ANZ opportunity

In May 2021 the Australian Federal Government funded 
grant  (for  the  use  of  PainChek®  Adult  App  for  people 
living  with  dementia  or  cognitive  impairment)  came 
to an end. At this point PainChek had achieved 82,982 
dementia  specific  beds  reported  to  the  government, 
with  resulting  Federal  Government  grant  payments  to 
PainChek totalling $4.3M in FY20 and FY21. 

At the close of FY22 a total of 28,000 Australian licences 
were under standard PainChek commercial terms, thus 
providing  actual  Annual  Recurring  Revenue  (ARR)  of 
$1.4M. There are currently a total 66,000 aged care beds 
implemented  in  Australia,  offering  a  potential  $3.2M 
ARR should these all convert to commercial terms.

On  the  assumption  that  all  existing  contracted  beds 
have  a  67%  conversion  rate  to  commercial  terms,  this 
implies  an  ARR  of  approximately  $4.3m  by  Q4  FY23, 
which excludes new sales in the period. Revenue from 
contracts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss 
and  other  comprehensive  income  in  accordance  with 
the  Group’s  accounting  policy  for  Revenue  set  out  on 
page 38.

Some  1.3  million  clinical  pain  assessments  have  been 
conducted in Australian aged care as at 30 June 2022, with 
an increasing number of case study reports confirming 
the  clinical  and  cost  benefit.  Those  assessments  are 
undertaken by over 8,000 users that have been trained 
by PainChek.

International market expansion

PainChek  saw  numerous  developments 
in  the  UK 
market during FY22 as its international expansion gained 
momentum. 

At  30  June  2022,  PainChek  has  over  7,500  contracted 
beds in the UK, with close to 4,000 of these implemented. 
The pipeline is growing in the aged care sector and new 
opportunities  are  arising  with  hospital  and  home  care 
sectors. 

PainChek  UK  has,  at  30  June  2022, 
integration 
agreements  with  six  care  management  partners  and 
one medication management partner who can provide 
a pipeline opportunity of up to 200,000 residential aged 
care beds. 

These  UK  integration  partnerships  include  Care  Vision 
CMS and Nourish Care, who provide care management 
software to more than 60,000 residential aged care beds 
that  could  potentially  use  the  PainChek®  assessment 
solution. 

 PAINCHEK LIMITED | 9   

PainChek received an order for an initial rollout of 1,000 
beds from one of these partners during the last quarter. 

Support was also received from Life Sciences Hub Wales 
with funding from the Gwent Regional Partnership Board 
via its Technology Enabled Care Programme. 

Funding  will  support  a  12-month  pilot  for  up  to  1,000 
residents  in  care  environments  such  as  residential, 
nursing,  hospital  and  palliative  care  homes,  across 
Gwent  as  the  first  step  in  rolling-out  PainChek  across 
Wales.

Closer to home, Summerset Holdings Ltd, New Zealand’s 
3rd  largest  aged  care  provider,  commenced  roll  out  of 
the PainChek® pain assessment solution across 24 of its 
care centres and 1,150 beds.

Overall,  the  Company  has  more  than  20  commercial 
integrations  with  care  management  and  medication 
management system partners in Australia, UK, Ireland, 
New Zealand, Singapore and Canada.  These partnerships 
provide  access  to  275,000  UK  beds  and  470,000  beds 
across  these  4  markets,  improve  the  pain  assessment 
and pain management clinical care and reduce costs for 
our clients.  This makes the PainChek a cost effective and 
clinically efficient healthcare solution.

PainChek®  Adult  App  FDA  deNovo  application  has 
progressed positively and the clinical studies in the USA 
are projected to commence in  2022. Based on current 
time lines we are projecting Q4 C2023 for FDA regulatory 
clearance.

Enabling development of the infant market

The  PainChek®  Infant  App  received  Australian  TGA,  CE 
Mark (Europe), UK, New Zealand, Singapore and Canada 
regulatory  clearances  during  FY21.    Furthermore,  the 
PainChek  Infant  Face-Only  pain  assessment  study  was 
peer reviewed and accepted for publication in the Lancet 
Digital  Scientific  journal  in  July  2021  validating  the 
PainChek Infant technology and clinical study outcomes. 
The  Company 
in  building  commercial 
integrations and partnerships with larger diagnostic and 
therapeutic  corporates.  Collaborations  with  Children’s 
hospitals and validation studies in Melbourne, NSW and 
overseas markets continue to progress as part of the go 
to market strategy.  

is  engaged 

During  FY22  PainChek  progressed  significant  new 
opportunities  that  have  matured  as  a  result  of  the 
COVID-19  pandemic.  PainChek  has  been  engaged  in 
discussion  with  the  Australian  Department  of  Health 
following both the FDA and TGA confirming regulatory 
clearances  for  the  COVID-19  vaccination  for  infants  as 
young as 6 months of age.  

10 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

Market  access  for  the  Infant  App  in  the  US  in  2022 
would  be  a  significant  development  for  the  Company 
and would align the Infant technology roll out across US, 
Europe and ANZ as this major infant vaccination program 
also rolls out.

Additionally, led by Associate Prof Jenny Downs, Principal 
Research Fellow, Head Disability Research Program and 
Co-Head Child Disability Team, Telethon Kids Institute, a 
team of Western Australia researchers received a State 
Government of Western Australia Future Health Research 
and  Innovation  Fund  grant  to  work  in  collaboration 
with  PainChek  to  develop  a  new  pain  assessment  tool 
specifically for children with disability aged 5 to 12 years. 
PainChek  will  hold  all  the  commercialisation  and  IP 
rights.

Accessing the home care & hospital markets

PainChek remains focused on opportunities in the home 
care and hospital markets and this will remain the case 
through  FY23  with  growing  interest  and  demand  for 
the PainChek Adult technology as a post operative (e.g. 
orthopaedic)  pain  assessment  solution  to  prevent  the 
risk of a patient’s delirium.

The  Nurse-led  Volunteer  Support  and  PainChek  Frailty 
Study  funded  through  the  Ramsay  Hospital  Research 
Foundation  (RHRF)  commenced  at  the  Hollywood 
Hospital  in  WA  during  March,  and  a  second  study 
at  Ramsay’s  Joondalup  Health  Campus,  also  funded 
through  the  RHRF,  is  planned  to  evaluate  the  use  of 
PainChek®  Universal  again  combined  with  a  nurse-led 
volunteer program.

The  market  need  for  PainChek  technology  within 
Palliative care management continues to evolve as better 
pain  management  is  seen  as  the  critical  element  to 
ensure Palliative care be best delivered across hospitals, 
aged care, hospices and the home environment.

Likely Developments and Overview of Group Strategy

We aim to maintain and grow our core Residential Aged 
Care  (RAC)  market  position  in  ANZ  by  maintaining  the 
current  contracted  RAC  beds  above  120,000,  through 
direct  sales  channel  and  in  partnership  with  our  20  + 
existing  CMS  and  medication  management  integration 
providers. These partnerships are projected to increase 
as we broaden our geographic reach. We will continue 
to implement and transition the remaining government 
contracted  clients  onto  standard  PainChek  commercial 
terms during this year and gain new RAC clients in all key 
markets. 

The  Home  Care  market  will  continue  to  be  accessed, 
initially  leveraging  existing  RAC  clients  that  also  have 
government  funded  home  care  packages  in  Australia 
and similar packages in overseas markets including the 
UK.  The Hospital market will be entered by leveraging 
existing studies with hospitals, partnering with medical 
device  suppliers  and  by  bundling  the  Infant  and  Adult 
App for broad use across the hospital. The Company is 
investing in sales capability to service these markets in 
Australia and UK.

International market expansion is planned in the existing 
UK and New Zealand markets by expanding the RAC beds 
market penetration and developing the home, hospital 
and infant markets. 

The  Company  is  negotiating  new  market  entry  and 
in  Europe,  Canada  and 
partnership  opportunities 
the  USA  for  both  the  Adult  and  Infant  technologies 
with  established  local  aged  care  and  hospital  supplier 
commercial  entities.  We  have  regulatory  clearance 
in  Canada  for  the  Adult  and  Infant  technologies  and 
are  entering  the  US  market  with  the  PainChek  Infant 
technology as a Clinical Decision Support tool. In parallel 
we continue with the de-Novo application with FDA for

the 

FY22 

report  discloses 

The 
remuneration 
arrangements  and  outcomes  for  the  people  listed 
below,  who  are  the  individuals  within  the  Company 
who  have  been  determined  to  be  Key  Management 
Personnel (KMP) in the financial year to 30 June 2022. 
Key  Management  Personnel  (KMP)  are  those  people 
who have the authority and responsibility for planning, 
directing  and  controlling  the  Group’s  activities,  either 
directly or indirectly.

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  Infant  market  indications  for  use  will  expand 
following  the  completion  of  clinical  studies  including 
The  Royal  Children’s  Hospital  in  Melbourne  “Painfaces 
Study”,  evaluating  the  validity  and  reliability  of  the 
application  for  the  assessment  of  procedural  pain 
amongst infants in the Emergency Department. 

The Company has also commenced additional Children’s 
research  studies  in  Europe  to  expand  Children’s  App 
clinical  indications  to  include  the  1-3  year  age  range 
thus  further  expanding  the  market  size  and  overall 
opportunity. 

The  Company  continues  to  build  and  explore  ‘go  to 
market’  partnerships  for  the  Infant  App  with  large 
pharma, diagnostics and clinical research organisations 
to  position  PainChek  as  the  total  pain  assessment  and 
pain management solution that can be delivered in the 
home and hospital sectors. 

Subsequent events

On 29 July 2022 the Group announced the completion of 
an Entitlement Offer, this followed the completion of a 
Placement of shares on 1 July 2022 to sophisticated and 
professional  investors.    The  Group  raised  $4,587,000 
before costs, of which $2,822,500 was received after the 
reporting date.

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  and  Directors,  executives  and  Directors

similar  positions  within  the  same  industry.  Options,

remuneration package for the executive and Directors, 
and  for  the  future  performance  by  the  executives  and 
Directors  in  managing  the  operations  and  strategic 
direction of the Company.

recommendations are set out below and continue to be

recognised for accounting purposes in accordance with AASB 2 Share Based Payments.  

Remuneration Consultant Benchmarks

capitalisation  of  between  $50  million  and  $200  million.    At  the  2019  Annual  general  meeting,  shareholders

CEO remuneration review 
The  Eagan  report  recommended  that  the  Company’s  CEO  remuneration  be  supplemented  with  an  annual  grant  of 
$200,000 worth of Performance Rights for the financial years ended 30 June 2020, 2021 and 2022.  

The Company entered into a new agreement on 8th October 2019 with Philip Daffas to increase his fixed and variable 
cash  remuneration  to  a  maximum  of  $400,000  per  annum  which  together  with  the  proposed  $200,000  grant  of 
Performance  Rights,  will  result  in  total  statutory  remuneration  of  $600,000  for  FY22.  The  notional  value  of 
performance  rights  as  set  out  in  the  AGM  Notice  will  differ  to  the  value  required  to  be  recognised  for  accounting 
purposes in accordance with AASB 2 Share Based Payments.  

The  total  statutory  remuneration  of  $600,000  for  Philip  Daffas  represents  124%  of  the  median  total  statutory 
remuneration  of  $483,812  benchmark  in  the  Health  and  IT  sector  for  companies  with  a  market  capitalisation  of 
between $50 million and $200 million. 

The Company received Shareholder approval at the 2019 AGM for the issue of Performance Rights to Philip Daffas to 
the value of $600,000 over the 3 years ending 30 June 2022, with an annual limit of $200,000 for Philip Daffas or his 
nominee(s) to acquire one Share for each Performance Right held pursuant to the LTI Plan and as part of Philip Daffas' 
remuneration. 

The Performance Rights issued for a year will be issued at the VWAP of the Company’s ordinary shares calculated 5 
days either side of and including the date of announcement of the company’s annual statutory results for the financial 
year preceding the financial year of the grant of the Performance Rights (Award Issue Price). 

Vesting of the Performance Rights is conditional on the following: 

a)  50% of the annual grant of $200,000 worth of Performance Rights will vest two years after the commencement of 
each  vesting  period  on  1  October  of  the  year  of  grant,  subject  to  the  Company's  Share  price  achieving  a 
compounded annual increase in Share price of 15% p.a. (Award Target Price) from the relevant Award Issue Price 
and  provided  that Philip  Daffas  remains  employed  by  the  Company  at  that  date  (unless  he  is  a Good  Leaver  as 
defined in the LTI Plan in which case he retains the relevant pro rata portion of the grant subject to the increase in 
Share price vesting condition); and 

b)  50% of the annual grant of $200,000 worth of Performance Rights will vest three years after the commencement 
of  each  vesting  period  on  1  October  of  the  year  of  grant,  subject  to  the  Company's  Share  price  achieving  a 
compounded  annual  increase  in  Share  price  of  15%  p.a.  from  the  relevant  Award  Issue  Price  and  provided that 
Philip Daffas remains employed by the Company on that date (unless he is a Good Leaver as defined in the LTI Plan 
in which case he retains the relevant pro rata portion of the grant subject to the increase in Share price vesting 
condition). 

The  Award  Target  Price  will  be  calculated  based  on  the  10  days  VWAP  leading  up  to  and  including  the 
 relevant vesting date

than where such liabilities arise out of conduct involving a willful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by 
the  officers  of  their  position  or  of  information  to  gain  advantage  for  themselves  or  someone  else  or  to  cause 
detriment to the Company. It is not possible to apportion the premium between amounts relating to the insurance 
against  legal  costs  and  those  relating  to  other  liabilities.  The  company  has  not  insured  against  or  indemnified  its 
auditor. 

Proceedings on behalf of the Group 
The Group is not aware that any person has applied to the court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for 
leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the Group, or to intervene in any proceedings in which the Group is a party, for 
the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Group for all or part of those proceedings. 

No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Group with leave of the court under section 237 
of the Corporations Act 2001.

Non-audit Services  
The Group may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the 
auditor’s expertise and experience with the Group and/or the Group are important. 

The  Board  of  Directors  has considered the  position  and  is  satisfied that  the  provision  of  the  non-audit  services  is 
compatible  with  the  general  standard  of  independence  for  auditors  imposed  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.    The 
directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor, as set out below, did not compromise 
the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 
• 

all non-audit services have been reviewed to ensure they do not impact the impartiality and objectivity of the 
auditor; 

• 

none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. 

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor, BDO Audit Pty Ltd for audit services provided during the year 
are set out in note 21 to the financial report.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022 

1. 

Significant accounting policies 

Basis of preparation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  comprises  PainChek  Limited  (referred  to  as  the  “Company”  or 
“Parent  Entity”)  and  its  controlled  entities  (together  referred  to  as  the  “Consolidated  Entity”  or  the 
“Group”) and is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.   The Group 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 and Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations. 

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 31 August 2022. 

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 yet mandatory 
for 30 June 2022 reporting periods. The Consolidated Entity has decided against early adoption of these 
standards. The Consolidated Entity has assessed the impact of these new standards and interpretations 
and does not expect that there would be a material impact on the Consolidated Entity in the current or 
future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.  

New and amended standards adopted by the Group 

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. Several other 
amendments and interpretations were applied for the first time during the year, but these changes did 
not  have  an  impact  on  the  Consolidated  Entity’s  financial  statements,  and  hence,  have  not  been 
disclosed. 

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 $6,997,500 (2021: 4,121,050) and net current assets of $4,823,414 (30 June 2021: $8,244,379). 
The consolidated entity also generated a loss after tax of $5,720,534 (2021: $6,063,647). 

32 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

  19 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The ability of the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon one or 
more of the following conditions:  

• 

• 

the successful commercialisation of its intellectual property in a manner that generates 
sufficient operating cash inflows; and 

the ability of the consolidated entity to raise sufficient capital as and when necessary. 

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, control over discretionary expenditure projects and conversion of 
customers onto commercial terms. 

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. 

Significant accounting policies of the Consolidated Entity 
Set  out  below  are  the  significant  accounting  policies  that  have  been  applied  in  the preparation  of  the 
consolidated financial statements: 

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 
entity, 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. 

  20 

 PAINCHEK LIMITED | 33   

 
 
 
 
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 reporting date. 

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting 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. 

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 reporting 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 reporting 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. 

34 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

  21 

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 reporting 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  reporting  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  reporting  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  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.

 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.  

  22 

 PAINCHEK LIMITED | 35   

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 
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.  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. 
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.

(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 the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are 
taken to profit or loss. 

(h) 

Trade and other payables 

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at 
amortised cost using the effective interest method. 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. 

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 corporate bonds 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. 

 PAINCHEK LIMITED | 37

(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: 
• 
• 

the  weighted  average  number  of  additional  ordinary  shares  that  would  have  been  outstanding 
assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares; 

costs of servicing equity; 

• 

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) 

Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Government Grants 

Software subscriptions 

i) 
Revenue from the sale of term (subscription) licences is recognised on a straight line basis over the 
subscription term. 

Training 

ii) 
Revenue  from  the  provision  of  training  services  is  recognised  typically  at  a  point  in  time  when  the 
Group has provided training and has met the performance obligation. 

Software support (maintenance) 

iii) 
Revenue  for  software  support  is  recognised  on  a  straight  line  basis  over  the  service  period  as 
performance obligations require the Consolidated Entity 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. 

Incremental Costs of obtaining Customer Contracts 

iv) 
Commissions on software subscriptions are capitalised and amortised over the term, where the term 
is greater than 12 months. 

Contract Liabilities 

v) 
A contract liability is recognised when a customer initially purchases services and goods, it is released 
as they are delivered to the customer.  

Contract Assets (Trade Receivables and Work in progress)  

vi) 
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 
reporting date and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for its performance completed 
to date. 

38 | PAINCHEK LIMITED  

  25 

 
 
 
 
Unsatisfied performance obligations 

vii) 
The  Company  continues  to  recognise  its  contract  liabilities  under  AASB  15  in  respect  of  any 
unsatisfied performance obligations in the Statement of Financial Position. 

Financing components 

viii) 
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. 

Government grants  

ix) 
Government  grants  are  recognised  where  there  is  reasonable  assurance  that  the  grant  will  be 
received  and  all  attached  conditions  will  be  complied  with.  When  the  grant  relates  to  an  expense 
item,  it  is  recognised  as  income  on  a  systematic  basis  over  the  periods  that  the  related  costs,  for 
which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised 
as income in equal amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset. 

(m) 

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. No adjustments was made to prior year numbers. 

(n) 

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 Consolidated 
Entity’s accounting policies in particular to: 

•  Going concern – refer note 1 above.  
•  The valuation of share-based payments - refer to note 14; 
•  Recognition of Government Grant income when milestones are reasonably assured of being 

met as detailed in notes 4, 5 and 11; and 

•  Recognition of a payroll tax liability related to options issued – refer to note 11. 

2. 

Segment information 

Operating  segments  are  presented  using  the  ‘management  approach’,  where  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. The Group operates predominantly in one segment, being the sale of its pain assessment 
solutions. The primary financial statements reflects this segment.

Research and development tax incentive 
The consolidated entity is eligible for the Commonwealth Government research and development tax 
incentive. To be eligible the company must meet stringent guidelines on what represents both core and 
supporting activities of research and development. Government grants are not recognised until there is 
reasonable  assurance  that  the  company  will  comply  with  the  conditions  attaching  to  them  and  the 
grants  will  be  received  which  generally  coincides  with  lodgement  of  the  return  with  the  regulatory 
body.

In December 2019, the Australian Government signed a grant funding contract with the Company for 
the  national  trial  of  the  PainChek  application  for  Australians  with  dementia  living  in  residential  aged 
care facilities.  The Grant ended 31 May 2021. 

The  intended  outcome  of  the grant  is to  improve  diagnosis  and  management  of  pain  in  people  living 
with  dementia  in  residential  aged  care.  During  this  period,  PainChek  Limited  also  entered  into 
agreements with end users acknowledging the Australian Government grant and allowing for the first 
period  of  those  agreements  to  be  funded  in  accordance  with  the  Australian  Government  grant 
agreement.  

During  the  year,  the  Group  received  $Nil  (FY21:  $1,353,316)  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the  funding 
contract of which $750,796 (FY21: $1,750,000) has been recognised as income and at 30 June 2022 the 
balance of $102,520 (FY21: $853,316) has been recognised as deferred income – see note 11.

Capital management 

The  Group  manages  its  capital  to  ensure  entities  in  the  Group  will  be  able  to  continue  as  going 
concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity 
balance.  The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 2021. 

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. 

Given  the  nature  of  the  business,  the  Group  monitors  capital  on  the  basis  of  current  business 
operations and cash flow requirements.

15.3  Financial risk management objectives 

In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial 
instruments.    This  note  describes  the  Group’s  objectives,  policies  and  processes  for  managing  those 
risks and the methods used to measure them.  Further quantitative information in respect of those risks 
is presented throughout these financial statements. 

There  have  been  no  substantive  changes  in  the  Group’s  exposure  to  financial  instrument  risks,  its 
objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them 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 16.5 below). 

15.5 

Interest rate risk management 

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for cash 
deposits 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 cash 
deposits 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 2022 would increase/decrease by $72,000 (2021: $120,000). 

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  other  receivables  is  limited  because the  counterparties  are  banks  with  high  credit-
ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. 

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 2022, 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 2022 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 (including Independence Standards) (the Code) 
that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia.  We have also fulfilled our other 
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

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

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

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.

Other information 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the  
information contained in the Directors report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include 
the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon, which we obtained prior to the date of this 
auditor’s report, and the Annual report, which is expected to be made available to us after that date.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard.  

When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are 
required to communicate the matter to the directors and will request that it is corrected. If it is not 
corrected, we will seek to have the matter appropriately brought to the attention of users for whom 
our report is prepared.

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 at:
