$1,317,853).  

l

The net assets of the consolidated entity were $8,839,066 as at 30 June 2015 (2014: $7,764,157). 

Review of Operations 

PITNEY PHARMACEUTICALS PTY LIMITED – 100% OWNED SUBSIDIARY 

PPL-1 CLINICAL TRIAL IN HUMANS 

During the year, the Company made significant progress with the development of its key anti-cancer product, PPL-1, and following 
the approval to begin a “First in Man” study by the Royal Adelaide Hospital Research Ethics Committee, the Company recruited, 
screened and commenced treatment of patients with its anti-cancer drug PPL-1.  

The trial was led by Professor Michael Brown (the principal investigator), and managed by Contract Research Organisations for 
clinical services (IDT CMAX) and analytical services (CPR Pharma Services). The trial was structured as a rising dose study with the 
first three patients being treated at the lowest dose of drug. Subsequent patients received a higher dose of PPL-1 to determine 
both safety and drug activity. Each patient received PPL-1 daily, for up to 28 days and was given the option to continue on the 
drug past this initial treatment period. Typically, the patients in the trial will have failed all “Standard of Care” for their cancers and 
not be taking other medications for treating their cancers. 

The trial was conducted to GCP (Good Clinical Practice) enabling the results to be used in submissions to regulators (Therapeutic 
Goods Administration, Food and Drug Administration, European Medicines Agency) towards registration. The clinical trial managers 
and service providers, IDT-CMAX and CPR Pharma Services, are audited by the Food and Drug Administration. 

PharmAust’s Executive Chairman, Dr Roger Aston said, “As a First in Man study, the drug will be potentially administered to patients 
suffering from diverse cancers. Recruitment will include selection of patients suffering from lung, pancreas, oesophageal, gastric, 
colorectal, ovarian, breast, prostate, liver, sarcoma, lymphoma, and melanoma. PharmAust has reached an exciting stage in its 
evolution and we look forward to reporting outcomes on the safety and activity of PPL-1.” 

In March 2015, PAA reported that the third and final patient in the lowest dose cohort for the trial at the Royal Adelaide Hospital 
had  been  assessed  for  reduction  in  the  blood  marker,  p70S6K,  following  treatment  with  PPL-1.  The  patient,  suffering  from  lung 
cancer with metastases to the liver, brain and bone received PPL-1 for 28 days and demonstrated approximately a 50% reduction 
of p70S6K levels at both days 3 and 7 of treatment. 

Aberrant expression of p70S6K is believed to contribute to aggressive features of cancer such as growth, invasion and metastasis. 
p70S6K levels in peripheral blood immune cells are expected to correlate with similar changes in the patient's cancer. Studies in 
peer review journals have shown that factors that increase Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR)/ p70S6K signalling, lead to 
increased metastasis in human breast cancer cells. Similarly, activation of p70S6K has been shown to increase viability of colorectal 
cancer  cells.  Published  evidence  also  suggests  that  some  globally  used  anticancer  drugs  (Paclitaxel)  may  operate  through 
inactivation of p70S6K.

Professor David Morris of the St George Hospital, Sydney said, “We have consistently observed that PPL-1 inhibits the p70S6K blood 
marker in patients with different cancers (6 out of 6 patients). The degree of inhibition has was as much as 65% as compared to the 
levels of p70S6K in patient’s blood before treatment with the drug (Day 1, pre-treatment). Although only three patients completed 
the 28-day treatment regimen, we have managed to determine the levels of p70S6K in a total of 6 patients who have received 
the drug for 3 days or more. Thus, despite the delays in completing the treatment of the first cohort due to patient withdrawals 
(unrelated to drug), we have managed to obtain p70S6K data from a larger group of patients giving higher statistical significance 
to the result (p<0.0005 at day 3).” 

Trial results to date show that there is a significant drop in a key cancer marker (p70S6K) in immune white blood cells, even at low 
doses of the drug. Inhibition of this marker is extensively correlated in peer review publications with a reduction in malignancy and 
the aggressive nature of cancer cells. The trials also confirm that PPL-1 has no adverse side effects, even at high doses. 

Professor  Michael  Brown,  Principal  Investigator  of  the  study  at  the  Royal  Adelaide  Hospital  said,  “The  use  of  surrogate  tumour 
markers in the diagnosis of cancer and assessment of progression is now ubiquitous in clinical oncology. Although many cancers 
have a specific “marker association”, p70S6K appears to be a common indicator of malignancy. Typically, information on drug 
efficacy is hard to observe in phase I safety studies, particularly at the lowest doses being tested. The results so far indicate that 
PPL-1 is well tolerated at the lowest dose and it appears to be physiologically active in that it reduces a key indicator associated 
with malignancy." 

The next stage is for clinical trials with PPL-1 and chemotherapy. The Company has shown that PPL-1 can significantly enhance 
chemotherapy in model systems without associated enhancement of toxicity commonly seen with chemotherapy drugs. Today, if 
one includes palliative therapies, the chemotherapy market has topped US$100 billion1 (1Reuters). If successful, this will be a defining 
trial for PharmAust as their drug will need to be initially used on the backdrop of the chemotherapy “Standard of Care”. 

The cancer chemotherapy market (estimated at US $42 billion/annum)* is currently the fastest growing sector within the pharma 
industry, mainly driven by the identification of new potential therapeutic targets. This growth is further fuelled by the magnitude of 
the  disease worldwide,  currently estimated at  more  than  25 million people  suffering  from  cancer  globally, and an estimated 5 
million people dying each year from the disease.

PPL-1 CLINICAL TRIAL IN CANINES 

PharmAust  in  conjunction  with  Vet  Oncology  Consultants  Pty  Ltd  at  the  Animal  Referral  Hospital  (ARH)  in  Homebush,  NSW, 
conducted a clinical trial to test the anticancer drug PPL-1 in a small number of pet dogs. The trial tested the safety and efficacy 
(Phase I/II) of PPL-1 for treating naturally occurring: superficial soft tissue sarcomas, chemo resistant lymphomas and metastatic 
melanomas. All pet dogs admitted to the trial were treated with the drug by their owners at their homes. To determine the safest 
and most effective dose, the trial design incorporated incremental increases in drug quantity to different groups of dogs. Groups 
of dogs were administered higher doses only after safety and efficacy of the lower dose has been established. All dog owners, 
researchers, administrators and sponsors knew what drug and how much drug is being administered to the dogs (it is an open 
ended trial).  

In June 2015, PAA reported that PPL-1 significantly suppressed a key cancer marker in two dogs evaluated, and has been safe and 
well tolerated by all the dogs treated with the drug so far (11 dogs in total). The Company and Veterinary Oncology Consultants 
decided to move to the next stage of clinical evaluations which make use of the “synergy” discovery (announced to the market 
17th February 2014), which showed that PPL-1 has the potential to significantly enhance the anti-cancer activity of conventional 
chemotherapeutics without simultaneously enhancing the associated side-effect profile. In these evaluations dogs will be treated 
with a combination of “standard of care” chemotherapy and PPL-1. 

Following the trial, PharmAust will evaluate the commercial opportunities with the global animal health company, with which it has 
a collaborative research and option agreement. 

Cancer is common in pet animals and the incidence increases with age. Cancer accounts for almost half of the deaths of pets 
over 10 years of age. Dogs get cancer at roughly the same rate as humans, while cats get fewer cancers. Each type of cancer 
requires  individual  care  and  may  include  a  combination  of  treatment  therapies  such  as  surgery,  chemotherapy,  radiation,  or 
immunotherapy.  There are  over  130 million  dogs and  cats in  the  USA with increasing  use of conventional anticancer  therapies 
being progressively adopted. 

The US companion pet market sales (est. 2011) are in the region of US$14 billion whilst cancer therapies are estimated at $550 million 
with a price point of around $1500 per treatment. 

RESEARCH COLLABORATION AND JOINT PATENT WITH JAPANESE COMPANY 

On  18th November  2014,  the Company  reported  that  further  to  signing  a Materials Transfer  Agreement  (MTA) with a  yet  to be 
named Japanese corporation part of a listed Japanese group in July 2013, it has now established a joint intellectual property (IP) 
position  with  this  Japanese  partner.  The  joint  IP  allows  PharmAust  access  to  some  80  analogues  of  PPL-1,  which  have  been 
synthesised by the Japanese research partner and tested for anticancer activity by PharmAust. The Joint Patent Application, which 
will be published in March 2015, further permits PharmAust to commercialise the analogues subject to other prevailing IP at the 
time of commercialisation. This collaboration broadens and strengthens PharmAust’s IP position.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 

On 23rd July, the Company reported the successful closure of its Phase I (Phase IIa) “first in man” trial at the Royal Adelaide Hospital 
and confirmation that the last patient, who was treated at the higher dose of PPL-1 (25mg/kg), showed meaningful suppression of 
key cancer marker p70S6K. Importantly, during the trial, both principal end points were successfully met, namely: 

1. 
2. 

 PPL-1 demonstrated a very good safety profile as compared with many other established anticancer drugs, and 
 PPL-1 showed activity against cancer through the suppression of a key cancer marker.  

In  the  trial,  seven  patients  were  treated  with  PPL-1  for  various  time  periods  and  measurements  were  successfully  taken  for 
anticancer activity through marker suppression (p70S6K). Three patients completed the full 28-day treatment period. One patient 
was not included in the cancer marker results as they only received a single dose of the drug. One patient received the higher 
dose of PPL-1 (25mg/kg). 

PharmAust’s contract research organisations (CPR and CMAX), which have managed the recruitment and implementation of the 
trial and have undertaken both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic measurements (cancer markers), will now provide a 
report on the trial during September 2015, which will include further data on other cancer-specific markers (in addition to p70S6K) 
and levels of PPL-1 and its metabolites in patients’ circulation. 

PharmAust’s Executive Chairman Dr Roger Aston said “We have now completed the “first stage” of studies with PPL-1 in humans 
and canines and we have shown that in both cases PPL-1 is well tolerated and importantly is active against cancer. The suppression 
of tumour marker, p70S6K, in man was highly significant when the data from 7 patients is combined and analysed (at day 3 of 
treatment p<0.0004 and at day 7 of treatment p<0.002). We have furthermore initiated the processes to move to the important 
next stage, which will include the treatment of patients with a combination of “Standard of Care” (chemotherapy drugs) in the 
presence of PPL-1. For the next stage of human work PharmAust will reformulate the drug into capsules, as the main challenge 
faced  in  both  canine  and  human  trials  with  liquid  PPL-1  was  the  poor  palatability  of  the  formulation  and  nausea  from  the 
unpleasant taste”. 

The key activities moving forward following completion of first human and canine trials, are planned to be: 

Human:  
• 

• 
• 

• 
• 

Canine: 
• 
• 
• 

Completion of  further  supportive preclinical  studies  to  enable  combination  therapy with  “Standard  of  Care” in a 
Phase II study; 
Preparation and submission of the clinical trial report to PharmAust by service providers CMAX Ltd and CPR Ltd; 
Preparation  of  a  new clinical  trial application  for  the ethics  committee  of  the Royal  Adelaide Hospital and  other 
centres that may wish to participate in the Phase II trial (currently under discussion); 
Initiate discussions for licensing of the human cancer applications of PPL-1; and 
Agreement of commercialisation strategy relating to joint patents with a major Japanese group. 

Two canines have now received PPL-1 with “Standard of Care” chemotherapy with no observed adverse events; 
Canine recruitment will continue and the Company will continue reporting on the outcomes in canine patients; and 
The Company will determine the next stages with Option partner (top 5 pharmaceutical company) for the veterinary 
applications of PPL-1 and related molecules.

On 24th August 2015, Professor David Morris advised the Board that he intends to retire a as a director of the Company, effective 
from the close of the Annual General Meeting. Professor Morris plans to concentrate on his work at St George Hospital and research 
work  with  his  foundation.  PharmAust  Limited  Executive  Chairman,  Dr  Roger  Aston,  commented:  "David  has  been  a  director  of 
PharmAust since 12 August 2013 and has been a valuable contributor to the Company and the research and development of its 
three  oncology  technology  platforms.  The  Board  wishes  him  well  in  his  future  endeavours.  With  the  recent  capital  raising  and 
successful closure of its Phase I (Phase IIa) “first in man” trial at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, the path forward for PharmAust is very 
promising. The directors thank Professor Morris for his contribution to the Company.” 

Other  than  what  is  mentioned  above,  no  matters  or  circumstances  have  arisen  since  the  end  of  the  financial  year  which 
significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of 
affairs of the Company in future financial years.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (Cont.) 

ALBENDAZOLE 

Albendazole is an approved anti-parasitic drug that is being investigated for its used in treating ascites-related malignancy. The 
market is estimated at approximately $500 million per annum as defined by the only product on the market (Removab). 

PharmAust  is  focused  on  developing  an  intraperitoneal  formulation  of  albendazole  to  enable  localization  of  the  drug  in  the 
abdomen with minimal systemic toxicity and effective reduction of ascites accumulation in the abdomen. In order to successfully 
commercialise the product the company will need to: 

1. 

2. 

Phase II study undertaken with a new formulation of albendazole designed to retain the drug in the abdomen. This activity 
may be undertaken with a partner specializing in drug formulation and development. The study will be in a rising dose 
format in order to identify the optimal therapeutic dose of the new albendazole formulation 

Phase III registration trial as a prelude to launching with a partner (this trial may be unnecessary depending on the degree 
of clarity and efficacy seen in the Phase II and on whether regulators allow PharmAust to expand the Phase II trial into a 
registration trial. 

MUCIN 

Mucin,  a  gelatinous  secretion of  tumours, is  associated with poor  prognosis and  poor  responses  to  chemotherapy.  Removal of 
tumour-associated mucin has been shown by PharmAust  to result in effective killing of cancer cells and increased sensitivity to 
chemotherapy. 

To achieve dissolution of tumour associated mucin, PharmAust has developed a combination of two agents already available 
commercially for other clinical uses outside oncology. As such, PharmAust is accessing toxicology, safety and manufacturing know-
how already developed by third parties. 

Currently, mucin is removed manually using surgery and the process can take many hours as the mucin it is often disseminated in 
the  abdomen.  Furthermore,  many  clinicians  are  not  prepared  to  undertake  such  laborious  surgical  processes.  Thus,  although 
targeting a “niche” market there is little or no competition. 

PharmAust is currently optimizing the doses of the combination therapy and will be in a position to initiate clinical studies in early 
2016 (Q1/Q2). The clinical programme to registration and launch is expected to take approximately 2.5 years. 

The market for such a combination therapy is estimated at around $300 million per annum. 

EPICHEM PTY LTD (“Epichem”) – 100% OWNED SUBSIDIARY 

Epichem  has  been  delivering  synthetic  and  medicinal  chemistry  services  to  the  drug  discovery  and  pharmaceutical  industries 
worldwide  for  over  10  years.  Epichem  offers  a  range  of  rare  and  hard  to  find  pharmaceutical  impurities,  degradants  and 
metabolites of active ingredients and excipients, particularly for OTC and generic drugs. 

Epichem has been at the forefront of synthesizing new and difficult to obtain standards and many of these are exclusive to Epichem 
and  not  available  elsewhere.  This  range  is  continually  expanding  in  response  to  customer  requests  and  developments  in  the 
industry. Epichem is globally competitive with clients in 33 countries and is well placed to take advantage of the lower Australian 
dollar. 

Epichem also excels in custom synthesis and contract drug discovery, boasting a highly skilled team of scientists, most with a PhD 
and industry experience. This valuable investment in people allows Epichem to lead drug discovery programs, perform custom 
synthesis, conduct optimisation and method development for scale-up and engage in high-level problem solving. 

Epichem  continued  to  promote  its  products  and  services  both  within  Australia  and  overseas  with  staff  attending  a  number  of 
conferences and tradeshows including, AusBiotech (Gold Coast, 29-31 Oct), ASTMH (New Orleans, 3-7 Nov) and RACI National 
Congress (Adelaide  7-11  Dec). Most notably,  Epichem was an exhibitor  at  CPhI  WorldWide (Paris,  6-9  Oct),  the world's premier 
trade show for the pharmaceutical industry attended by 36,000 delegates. Feedback from CPhI was excellent with a number of 
new customers and prospects resulting. 

Epichem was awarded a 12 month extension to its current contract with Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) in December 
2014. The contract, which is worth $1.16 million to the Company, sees Epichem continue to provide synthetic & medicinal chemistry 
support to DNDi's drug discovery projects until 31 December 2015. 

DNDi is a not-for-profit product development partnership working to research and develop new treatments for neglected diseases, 
in particular human African trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, Chagas disease, malaria, paediatric HIV, and specific helminth-related 
infections.  

Epichem  also  has  a  long  history  of  helping  pharmaceutical  companies  identify  trace  impurities  and  has  produced  a  range  of 
pharmaceutical  reference  standards  to  aid  the  industry  in  detecting  and  measuring  these  impurities,  ultimately  assisting  in  the 
quality assurance and control of its clients’ medicines. Revenues from the sales of Reference Standards were a record $200k in Q4, 
which included Epichem's first sale to Belarus.

Epichem  also  began  a  significant  expansion  in  June.  After  12  years  at  Murdoch  University,  Epichem  is  moving  to  much  larger 
facilities at WA's Technology Park. The new laboratory, which is being purpose built for Epichem's needs, is expected to be complete 
by September. The extra capacity of the new facilities will allow Epichem to rapidly grow its business to our 5-year target of $10 
million per annum. 

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 

On 7 July 2015 the Group entered into a construction contract with a value of $1,591,634 to construct a laboratory. 

On 14th July 2015, Epichem received $411k from DNDi (currently Epichem’s largest client) as an advanced payment for work yet 
to be completed on its flagship project on Chagas disease. This payment is not included in these financial statements. 

Other  than  what  is  mentioned  above,  no  matters  or  circumstances  have  arisen  since  the  end  of  the  financial  year  which 
significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of 
affairs of the Company in future financial years. 

CORPORATE 

On 16th March 2015, The Company advised that it successfully raised $3.14 million through the issue of 400 million new ordinary 
shares at $0.00785 per share to sophisticated and professional investors through lead manager, Blue Ocean Equities. 

PharmAust’s Executive Chairman Dr Roger Aston said “We are delighted by the overwhelming interest received for the Placement 
and appreciate the support from both new and existing shareholders. The placement was targeted to investors and institutions 
that  recognise  the  potential  of  PharmAust’s  oncology  programmes  and,  as  such,  has  helped  us  to  build  a  stronger  register.  
Furthermore,  the  strong  signal  of  support  from  new  shareholders  reflects  the  ongoing  endorsement  of  PharmAust’s  assets  and 
business  strategy.  We look  forward  to delivering  value  by  expediting our  clinical development  programmes  and  by  enhancing 
revenues from Epichem to our 5-year target of $10 million per annum.” 

l

PharmAust  has  sufficient  funds  to  complete  its  forward  program.  Consideration  will  now  be  given  to  joining  with  a  major 
international pharmaceutical company to shorten the time to market and begin trials in the USA and Europe. 

PharmAust shareholders approved the appointment of Dr Wayne Best as a director at the Annual General Meeting. Wayne is the 
Managing Director of PharmAust's wholly owned subsidiary, Epichem Pty Ltd. 

Board Changes 

Annual General Meeting 

PharmAust held its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on 24th October 2014 at 30 The Avenue, Nedlands and all resolutions 
that were put were unanimously passed on a show of hands. 

PharmAust Receives ATO Research & Development Rebate 

On  24th  June  2015,  the  Company  advised  that  the  Australian  Taxation  Office  (“ATO”)  has  recognised  the  innovation  of  the 
Research and Development being developed by wholly owned subsidiaries, Epichem and Pitney. 

The Company had previously lodged an application with Innovation Australia following advice from PharmAust’s consultants that 
the R&D may qualify for a Research and Development Tax Rebate on its 2014 tax return. 

Following  approval  from  the  ATO  of  the  Company’s  application  for  a  Research  and  Development  rebate,  an  amount  of 
$329,351.25 was deemed refundable on PharmAust’s 2014 Tax Return and a cheque for that amount plus interest has subsequently 
been received by PharmAust and banked. 

Dividends 

Significant Changes in State of Affairs 

Since the end of the financial year, no dividend has been paid, declared or recommended. 

A review of events during the reporting period can be found in the review of operations. 

Future Developments 

In  the  opinion  of  the  Directors  disclosure  of  information  regarding  likely  developments  in  the  Company’s  operations  and  the 
expected  results  of  those  operations  in  subsequent  financial  years  could  prejudice  the  Company’s  interests.    Accordingly,  this 
information has not been included in this report.

Proceedings on Behalf of the Company 

Non-audit Services 

The Company is subject to a range of environmental regulation. During the year, the Company  met all reporting requirements 
under any relevant legislation.  There were no incidents which required reporting. 

No person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or intervene in any proceedings to which 
the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or any part of these proceedings. 

The  Company may  decide  to employ  the  auditor  on assignments additional  to  their  statutory  audit duties where  the auditor’s 
expertise and experience with the Company and the consolidated entity are important. 

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor, RSM Bird Cameron Partners, for non-audit services provided during the year 
are set out below. 

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 because none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set 
out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a 
management or a decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic 
risk and rewards.

2015 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities 

DIRECTORS' REPORT (Cont.) 

Remuneration Report (Audited) 

The remuneration report, which has been audited, outlines the key management personnel (KMP) remuneration arrangements for 
the consolidated entity, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. 

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director and executive of PharmAust Limited. 

Remuneration Policy 
The remuneration of directors and executives of PharmAust Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with 
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based 
on key performance areas affecting the Company’s financial results. The Board of PharmAust Limited believes the remuneration policy 
to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Company, 
as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders. 

All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and superannuation whilst 
some  executives  receive  fringe  benefits.  The  Board  reviews  executive  packages  periodically  by  reference  to  the  Company’s 
performance,  executive  performance  and  comparable  information  from  industry  sectors  and  other  listed  companies  in  similar 
industries. 

The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed regularly with each executive and is based on factors including 
the forecast growth of profits and shareholders’ value.  

The remuneration is designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term 
growth in shareholder wealth. The goal of the remuneration structures it to align the remuneration packages of the executives with 
the Company’s performance and specifically the Company’s earnings and the consequences of the Company’s performance on 
shareholder wealth including dividends, returns of capital and capital appreciation.  

The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government and do not 
receive  any  other  retirement  benefits. Individuals,  however,  have  the  option  to  sacrifice  part  of  their  salary  to increase  payments 
towards superannuation. 

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Any shares given to directors 
and executives will be valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or 
executive. Any options granted will be valued by an independent expert using the Black-Scholes, Binomial or any other methodologies 
that the independent expert deems appropriate. 

The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and 
responsibilities.  The  Board  (excluding  the  relevant  director)  determines  payments  to  the  directors  and  reviews  their  remuneration 
regularly, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum 
aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General 
Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. 

Service agreements: 
Remuneration of Dr Roger Aston (Executive Chairman - PharmAust Limited)

2015 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the year ended 30 June 2015 

These  consolidated  financial  statements  and  notes  represent  those  of  PharmAust  Limited  and  its  Controlled  Entities  (the 
“consolidated entity” or “group”). 

The separate financial statements of the parent entity, PharmAust Limited, have not been presented within this financial report 
as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed within this financial 
statements. 

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Australian 
Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting  Interpretations,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian 
Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes 
under Australian Accounting Standards. 

Australian  Accounting  Standards  set  out  accounting  policies  that  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  has 
concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and 
conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply 
with  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  as  issued  by  the  IASB.    Material  accounting  policies  adopted  in  the 
preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise. 

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on 
historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets 
and financial liabilities. 

The financial report was authorised for issue on 28 August 2015 by the Directors of the Company.

a
n
o
s
r
e
p

r
o
F

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the PharmAust Limited and all of 
the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity 
when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those 
returns through its power over the entity.  

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the 
date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control 
ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully 
eliminated  on  consolidation.  Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  and  adjustments  made  where 
necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.  

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling interests”. 
The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to 
a  proportionate  share  of  the  subsidiary’s  net  assets  on  liquidation  at  either  fair  value  or  at  the  non-controlling  interests’ 
proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed 
their  share  of  profit  or  loss  and  each  component  of  other  comprehensive  income.  Non-controlling  interests  are  shown 
separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by PharmAust Limited 
at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which PharmAust Limited has the ability and right to 
govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities. 

Where  controlled  entities  have  entered  or  left  the  Group  during  the  year,  the  financial  performance  of  those  entities  is 
included only for the period of the year that they were controlled.   

Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a  parent, are reported 
separately within the equity section of the consolidated statement of financial position and statements showing profit or loss 
and other comprehensive income.  The non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the 
original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date. 

Business combinations 

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.  

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or 
businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained, 
whereby  the  fair  value  of  the  identifiable  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  (including  contingent  liabilities)  assumed  is 
recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).

(b)     Income Tax   

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent 
consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity 
is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an 
asset or liability is remeasured in each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to  fair value in profit or loss, 
unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date. 
All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations are recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred. 

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. 

The  income  tax  expense/(income)  for  the  year  comprises  current  income  tax  expense/(income)  and  deferred  tax 
expense/(income). 

Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities/(assets) 
are measured at the amounts expected to be paid to/(recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. 

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year 
as well as unused tax losses. 

Current and deferred income tax expense/(income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to 
items that are recognised outside profit or loss. 

Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, 
where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is 
realised or the liability is settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover 
or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. With respect to non-depreciable items of property, plant and 
equipment measured at fair value and items of investment property measured at fair value, the related deferred tax liability 
or deferred tax asset is measured on the basis that the carrying amount of the asset will be recovered entirely through sale.   

Deferred  tax  assets  relating  to  temporary  differences  and  unused  tax  losses  are  recognised  only  to  the  extent  that  it  is 
probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. 

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred 
tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled 
and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. 

Current  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  where  a  legally  enforceable  right  of  set-off  exists  and  it  is  intended  that  net 
settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and 
liabilities are offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate 
to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where 
it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in 
future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. 

(c)    Plant and Equipment 

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and therefore carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any 
accumulated  impairment.    In  the  event  the  carrying  amount  of  plant  and  equipment  is  greater  than  the  estimated 
recoverable  amount,  the  carrying  amount  is  written  down  immediately  to  the  estimated  recoverable  amount  and 
impairment losses  are  recognised  either in profit  or loss or as a  revaluation  decrease if  the impairment losses  relate  to a 
revalued asset.   

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable 
amount  from  these  assets. The  recoverable amount is assessed  on  the  basis of  the  expected  net  cash  flows  that will be 
received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to 
their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when 
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be 
measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the financial period 
in which they are incurred.

Depreciation 

The depreciable amount of all plant and is depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the  consolidated 
entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.  

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: 

Class of Fixed Asset 
Plant and equipment   

Depreciation Rate 

2.5-33% 

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. 

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater 
than its estimated recoverable amount. 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are 
recognised  in  profit  or  loss  in  the  period  in  which  they  arise.  When  revalued  assets  are  sold,  amounts  included  in  the 
revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. 

(d)  Leases 

Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset – but not the legal 
ownership – are transferred to entities in the consolidated group, are classified as finance leases. 

Finance leases are capitalised by recognising an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of 
the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease 
payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. 

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. 

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as 
expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. 

Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the lease 
term. 

(e)  Financial Instruments  

Recognition and initial measurement 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the 
instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale 
of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted). 

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified “at 
fair value through profit or loss”, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. 

Classification and subsequent measurement 

r
o
F

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest method, or cost. 

Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition 
less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference 
between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method. 

Fair  value  is  determined  based  on  current  bid  prices  for  all  quoted  investments.  Valuation  techniques  are  applied  to 
determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments 
and option pricing models. 

The  effective  interest  method  is  used  to  allocate  interest  income  or  interest  expense  over  the  relevant  period  and  is 
equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other 
premiums  or  discounts)  over  the  expected  life  (or  when  this  cannot  be  reliably  predicted,  the  contractual  term)  of  the 
financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net 
cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying amount with a consequential recognition of an income or expense 
item in profit or loss.

PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the year ended 30 June 2015

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 

(e)    Financial Instruments (Cont.) 

The  Group  does  not  designate  any  interests  in  subsidiaries,  associates  or  joint  venture  entities  as  being  subject  to  the 
requirements of Accounting Standards specifically applicable to financial instruments. 

(i) 

Loans and receivables 

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not 
quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains or losses are recognised 
in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial asset is derecognised. 

(ii) 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

Financial assets are classified at “fair value through profit or loss” when they are held for trading for the purpose 
of short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to 
avoid  an  accounting  mismatch  or  to  enable  performance  evaluation where  a  Group  of  financial  assets  is 
managed  by  key  management  personnel  on  a  fair  value  basis  in  accordance  with  a  documented  risk 
management  or investment  strategy.  Such assets  are  subsequently  measured at  fair  value with  changes in 
carrying amount being included in profit or loss. 

(iii) 

Financial liabilities 

Non-derivative  financial  liabilities  other  than  financial  guarantees  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised 
cost. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process and when the financial 
liability is derecognised. 

Impairment  

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset has been 
impaired. A financial asset (or a group of financial assets) is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence 
of impairment as a result of one or more events (a “loss event”) having occurred, which has an impact on the estimated 
future cash flows of the financial asset(s). 

In the case of available-for-sale financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the market value of the instrument is 
considered to constitute a loss event. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss immediately. Also, any cumulative 
decline in fair value previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss at this point. 
In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or a group of 
debtors are experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; indications 
that  they  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  other  financial  reorganisation;  and  changes  in  arrears  or  economic  conditions  that 
correlate with defaults. 

For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is used to 
reduce  the  carrying  amount  of  financial  assets  impaired  by  credit  losses.  After  having  taken  all  possible  measures  of 
recovery,  if  management  establishes  that  the  carrying  amount  cannot  be  recovered  by  any  means,  at  that  point  the 
written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced 
directly if no impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account. 

When  the  terms  of  financial assets  that would  otherwise  have  been past  due  or impaired have  been  renegotiated,  the 
Group recognises the impairment for such financial assets by taking into account the original terms as if the terms have not 
been renegotiated so that the loss events that have occurred are duly considered. 

Derecognition 

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expire or the asset is transferred to 
another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated 
with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. 
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the 
fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances 
The  functional  currency of each  of  the  entities in  the  consolidated entity is measured using  the  currency  of  the primary 
economic  environment  in  which  that  entity  operates.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian 
dollars which is the parent entity’s functional currency. 

Transaction and balances 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the 
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured 
at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured 
at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  non-monetary  items  are  recognised  directly  in  other  comprehensive 
income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange 
difference is recognised in profit or loss.

(g)     Impairment of Assets 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The 
assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from 
subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, 
an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the 
asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the asset’s carrying amount 
over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in 
accordance  with  another  Standard  (e.g.  in  accordance  with  the  revaluation  model  in  AASB  116:  Property,  Plant  and 
Equipment). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other 
Standard. 

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable 
amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Impairment  testing is  performed annually  for  goodwill, intangible  assets with indefinite  lives and intangible assets not yet 
available for use. 

Investments  in  associate  companies  are  recognised  in  the  financial  statements  by  applying  the  equity  method  of 
accounting.  

(h)    Investments in Associates 

(i)    Employee Benefits  

Short-term employee benefits  
Provision is  made  for  the  group’s  obligation  for  short-term employee benefits.  Short-term  employee benefits are  benefits 
(other  than  termination  benefits)  that  are  expected  to  be  settled wholly  before  12  months  after  the  end  of  the  annual 
reporting  period in which  the employees  render  the  related service, including wages  and salaries.  Short-term employee 
benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.  

The group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages and salaries are recognised as a part of current 
trade and other payables in the statement of financial position. The Group’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and 
long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position. 

r
o
F

Other long-term employee benefits  
Provision is made for employees’ long service leave and annual leave entitlements not expected to be settled wholly within 
12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Other long-term 
employee  benefits  are  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the  expected  future  payments  to  be  made  to  employees. 
Expected  future  payments  incorporate  anticipated  future  wage  and  salary  levels,  durations  of  service  and  employee 
departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on 
government  bonds  that  have  maturity  dates  that  approximate  the  terms  of  the  obligations.  Any  remeasurements  for 
changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in 
which the changes occur.  

The group’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions in its statement of financial 
position, except where the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.

F

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for 
which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.  

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting 
period. 

(k)    Cash and Cash Equivalents 

(l)   

Cash  and  cash  equivalents  includes  cash  on  hand,  deposits  held  at  call  with  banks  and  other  short-term  highly  liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reported within short-
term borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary 
course of business.  Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified 
as current assets.  All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.   

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

(m)    Revenue 

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into account any trade 
discounts  and  volume  rebates  allowed.  When  the  inflow  of  consideration  is  deferred,  it  is  treated  as  the  provision  of 
financing and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for similar arrangements.  The 
difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately received is interest revenue. 

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer of significant risks 
and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those goods. 

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method. 

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax. 

(n)    Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not 
recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).   
Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  GST 
recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  ATO  is  included  with  other  receivables  or  payables  in  the  statement  of  financial 
position. 
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities 
which  are  recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  ATO  are  presented  as  operating  cash  flows  included  in  receipts  from 
customers or payments to suppliers. 

(o)    Equity-settled compensation 

The Group operates an employee share and option plan. Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair 
value  of  the  instruments  issued  and  amortised  over  the  vesting  periods.    Share-based  payments  to  non-employees  are 
measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined 
the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are 
received.  The corresponding amount is recorded to the option reserve.   The fair value of options is determined using the 
Black-Scholes pricing model.  The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of 
each reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments 
granted is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. 

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. 

(p)    Contributed equity 

(q)     Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the Company, adjusted to exclude any costs 
of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of 
ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the year ended 30 June 2015 

1.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 

(r)     Borrowing Costs 

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial 
period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets 
are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.  

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 

Intangibles Assets 

Intellectual property rights- three oncology technology platforms 
Intellectual property rights are recognised at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. 
For intellectual property rights not yet in use, they are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired, and are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. 

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are 
capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project is expected to deliver future economic benefits 
and these benefits can be measured reliably.  

Intangible assets have a finite useful life and are amortised on a systematic basis based on the future economic benefits 
over the useful life of the project following commercialisation of the assets.  

(t)      Fair Value measurement  

When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair 
value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction 
between  market  participants  at  the  measurement  date;  and  assumes  that  the  transaction  will  take  place  either:  in  the 
principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. 

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

Assets  and  liabilities  measured  at  fair  value  are  classified,  into  three  levels,  using  a  fair  value  hierarchy  that  reflects  the 
significance  of  the  inputs  used  in  making  the  measurements.  Classifications  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting  date  and 
transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair 
value measurement. 

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not 
available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and 
reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is 
undertaken,  which  includes  a  verification  of  the  major  inputs  applied  in  the  latest  valuation  and  a  comparison,  where 
applicable, with external sources of data. 

When  required  by  Accounting  Standards,  comparative  figures  have  been  adjusted  to  conform  to  changes  in               
presentation for the current financial year. 

(u)     Comparative Figures 

(v)     Operating segments 

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

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

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

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

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

In  the  current  year,  the  Group  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual 
reporting period.  

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

Any  significant  impact  on  the  accounting  policies  of  the  consolidated  entity  from  the  adoption  of  these  Accounting 
Standards and Interpretations are disclosed below. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did 
not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity. 

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity: 

AASB 2012-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities 
The  consolidated  entity  has  applied  AASB  2012-3  from  1  July  2014.  The  amendments  add  application  guidance  to 
address inconsistencies in the application of the offsetting criteria in  AASB 132 'Financial Instruments: Presentation', by 
clarifying the meaning of 'currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off'; and clarifies that some gross settlement 
systems may be considered to be equivalent to net settlement. 

AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets 
The consolidated entity has applied AASB 2013-3 from 1 July 2014. The disclosure requirements of AASB 136 'Impairment 
of  Assets'  have  been  enhanced  to  require  additional  information  about  the  fair  value  measurement  when  the 
recoverable amount of impaired assets is based on fair value less costs of disposals.  Additionally, if measured using a 
present value technique, the discount rate is required to be disclosed. 

AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards (Parts A to C) 
The consolidated entity has applied Parts A to C of AASB 2014-1 from 1 July 2014. These amendments affect the following 
standards:  AASB  2  'Share-based  Payment':  clarifies  the  definition  of  'vesting  condition'  by  separately  defining  a 
'performance  condition'  and  a  'service  condition'  and  amends  the  definition  of  'market  condition';  AASB  3  'Business 
Combinations': clarifies that contingent consideration in a business combination is subsequently measured at fair value 
with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is within the 
scope of  AASB 9;  AASB 8 'Operating Segments': amended to require disclosures of judgements made in applying the 
aggregation  criteria  and  clarifies  that  a  reconciliation  of  the  total  reportable  segment  assets  to  the  entity's  assets  is 
required  only  if  segment  assets  are  reported  regularly  to  the  chief  operating  decision  maker;  AASB  13  'Fair  Value 
Measurement': clarifies that the portfolio exemption applies to the valuation of contracts within the scope of AASB 9 and 
AASB  139;  AASB  116  'Property,  Plant  and  Equipment'  and  AASB  138  'Intangible  Assets':  clarifies  that  on  revaluation, 
restatement  of  accumulated  depreciation  will  not  necessarily  be  in  the  same  proportion  to  the  change  in  the  gross 
carrying  value  of  the asset;  AASB  124  'Related Party  Disclosures':  extends  the definition  of  'related party'  to include a 
management entity that provides KMP services to the entity or its parent and requires disclosure of the fees paid to the 
management  entity;  AASB  140  'Investment  Property':  clarifies  that  the  acquisition  of  an  investment  property  may 
constitute a business combination.

2015 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the year ended 30 June 2015 

(y)  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 

Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including 
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Equally, the Group continually 
employs judgement in the application of its accounting policies. 

Management  has  identified  the  following  critical  accounting  policies  for  which  significant  judgements,  estimates  and 
assumptions are made.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.  Those 
which may materially affect the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities reported in future periods are discussed below. 

Share-based payment transactions 
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of 
the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using either the Binomial or 
Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. 

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets 
The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible 
assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that 
may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves fair 
value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions. 

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

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

PharmAust Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary have formed an income tax consolidated group under the Tax 
Consolidation Regime.  PharmAust Limited is responsible for recognising the current and deferred tax assets and liabilities for 
the tax consolidated group. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in 
the consolidated entity contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax 
of the tax consolidated group.

Trade receivables: Payment terms are 30 days from the date of recognition. 

5b        Provision for impairment of receivables 

Current trade and term receivables are non-interest bearing and generally on 30-day terms.  Non-current trade and term 
receivables are assessed for recoverability based on the underlying terms of the contract.  A provision for impairment is 
recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade or term receivable is impaired.

As of 30 June 2015, trade receivables of $28,398 (2014:$ 36,768) were past due but not impaired. These relate to a number of 
independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. The ageing analysis of these trade receivables is as 
follows: 

31 to 60 days 
             61 days and above 

24,425 
3,973

Based on the credit history of these other classes, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due. The Group 
does not hold any collateral in relation to these receivables.  

5d        Fair value and credit risk 

The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single counterparty or group of counterparties 
other than those receivables specifically provided for and mentioned within Note 5.  The class of assets described as “trade 
and other receivables” is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the Group.

ISSUED CAPITAL (Cont.) 

13d     Capital Management 

Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders 
with adequate returns and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. 

The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets. 

There are no externally imposed capital requirements. 

Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing its financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in 
response to changes in these risks and in the market.  These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions 
to shareholders and share issues. 

There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior 
year. The gearing ratios for the year ended 30 June 15 and 30 June 2014 are as follows:

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management 

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk and foreign exchange 
risk.  Other minor risks are either summarised below or disclosed at Note 5 in the case of credit risk and Note 13 in the case of 
capital risk management.  The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. 

Cash Flow Interest Rate Risk 

The Group’s exposure to the risks of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s short-term deposits with a 
floating  interest  rate.    These  financial  assets  with  variable  rates  expose  the  Group  to  cash  flow interest  rate  risk.    All  other 
financial assets and liabilities in the form of receivables and payables are non-interest bearing.  The Group does not engage 
in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage interest rate risk. 

The following tables set out the carrying amount by maturity of the  Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective 
weighted average interest rate for each class of these financial instruments. 

The Group has not entered into any hedging activities to cover interest rate risk.  In regard to its interest rate risk, the Group 
does not have a formal policy in place to mitigate such risks.

At 30 June 2015, if interest rates had changed by 100 basis points during the entire year with all other variables held constant, 
profit for the year and equity would have been $8,979 (2014:$ 23,043) lower/higher, mainly as a result of lower/higher interest 
income from cash and cash equivalents. 

Based on the sensitivity analysis only interest revenue from variable rate deposits and cash balances are impacted resulting 
in a decrease or increase in overall income. 

Liquidity risk 

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash reserves and marketable securities and through the continuous 
monitoring of budgeted and actual cash flows.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Cont.) 

Foreign exchange risk 

The Group is exposed to foreign exchange rate arising from various currency exposures. Foreign exchange risk arises from 
future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Group’s 
functional currency.  

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the reporting date was as follows:

Net fair values 

For assets and other liabilities the net fair value approximates their carrying value. The Group has no financial assets where 
the carrying amount exceeds net fair values at reporting date. 

The aggregate net fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed in the statement 
of comprehensive income and in the notes to the financial statements. 

Financial instruments at fair value 

The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position have been analysed and classified 
using the fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value 
hierarchy consists of the following levels: 
- 
-  inputs  other  than  quoted  prices  included with  Level  1  that  are  observable  for  the  asset  or  liability,  either  directly  (as 

quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1); 

prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2); and 

-  inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

Identification of reportable segments 
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Directors (chief 
operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.  

Descriptions of segments 

i. 

ii. 

Corporate 
The corporate segment covers all the corporate overhead expenses.   

Pharmaceutical 
The  pharmaceutical  segment  provides  products  and  services  in  synthetic  and  medicinal  chemistry  to  the  drug 
discovery and pharmaceutical industries.  

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments 

a. 

Accounting policies adopted 

All  amounts  reported  to  the  Directors,  being  the  chief  decision  makers  with  respect  to  operating  segments,  are 
determined  in  accordance  with  accounting  policies  that  are  consistent  to  those  adopted  in  these  financial 
statements. 

b. 

Intersegment transactions 

There are no intersegment sales and purchase within the consolidated entity. 

Intersegment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received/to be received net 
of transaction costs.  

c. 

Segment assets 

Where  an  asset  is  used  across  multiple  segments,  the  asset  is  allocated  to  the  segment  that  receives  majority 
economic value from the asset.  In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of 
their nature and physical location. 

d. 

Segment liabilities 

Liabilities  are  allocated  to  segments where  there  is  a  direct  nexus  between  the  incurrence  of  the  liability  and  the 
operations of the segment.

On 7 July 2015 the Group entered into a construction contract with a value of $1,591,634 to construct a laboratory.   

On 14th July 2015, the group received $411,000 from DNDi (currently the group’s largest client) as an advanced payment 
for work yet to be completed on its flagship project on Chagas disease.   

Other than the above, the directors are not aware of any significant events since the end of the reporting period. 

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET MANDATORY OR EARLY ADOPTED  

Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 
2015.  The  consolidated  entity's  assessment  of  the  impact  of  these  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below. 

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

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard provides a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to 
depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which 
the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either 
written, verbal or implied) to be identified, together with  the separate performance obligations within the contract; 
determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the transaction 
price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or 
service,  or  estimation  approach  if  no  distinct  observable  prices  exist;  and  recognition  of  revenue  when  each 
performance  obligation  is  satisfied.  Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to 
revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. 
For  services,  the  performance  obligation  is  satisfied  when  the  service  has  been  provided,  typically  for  promises  to 
transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate 
measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. 
Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, a contract 
asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. 
Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; 
the significant judgments made in applying the guidance to those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs 
to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2017 but the 
impact of its adoption is yet to be assessed by the consolidated entity.
