Directors The following persons held office as directors of PharmAust Limited during the whole of the financial year and up to the date of this report, unless otherwise stated: Dr Roger Aston Mr Robert Bishop Dr Wayne Best Mr Sam Wright Executive Chairman Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Principal Activities The principal continuing activities constituted by PharmAust Limited and the entities it controlled during the year were to develop its own drug discovery intellectual property for the treatment of different types of cancers in humans and animals, as well as providing highly specialised medicinal and synthetic chemistry services on a contract basis to clients. Operating Results The results of the consolidated entity for the year ended 30 June 2018 was a loss, after income tax expense, of $2,521,679 (2017: loss of $1,343,614). Financial Position The net assets of the consolidated entity were $7,138,218 as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $6,915,047). Dividends Since the end of the financial year, no dividend has been paid, declared or recommended. Review of Operations PITNEY PHARMACEUTICALS PTY LIMITED – 100% OWNED SUBSIDIARY During the past 12 months the Company’s focus has been primarily directed towards three Research and Development Targets with its lead product MPL in cancer therapy. These three targets are: 1. to undertake a “First Line Therapy” clinical trial in canines with naturally occurring cancer to determine the safety and value of MPL as a cancer therapy, and 2. to identify a formula that can provide both palatable and high dose MPL tablet for clinical development 3. Using the new formula, finalise Phase I and II Clinical Trial Protocols suitable for testing the anticancer activity of MPL in canines with cancer All three of the above goals have been successfully achieved. Results from the First Line Clinical Trial in Canines with Naturally Occurring Cancer The first line therapy clinical trial in canines with B-cell lymphoma was successfully completed during the 2017-2018 calendar year. This trial was undertaken using gelatin encapsulated MPL liquid. The use of MPL liquid meant that only sub-optimal doses could be tested. However, the trial confirmed MPL’s presumed anticancer activity and has provided PharmAust with full confidence to explore this potential in more formal clinical studies. The trial showed that: • • • • • • • • for the first time, inhibition of the mTOR signaling pathway is associated with anticancer efficacy in dogs with naturally occurring cancers, six out of seven dogs administered gelatin encapsulated MPL liquid achieved stable disease, six out of seven dogs administered gelatin encapsulated MPL liquid achieved reductions in tumour size, stable disease and reductions in tumour size were accompanied by a high MPL safety profile, administration of MPL was associated with reductions in PharmAust’s identified tumour marker, due to poor palatability and a relatively low permissible dose, it was confirmed that MPL liquid is not an ideal formula for effectively administering MPL to canines with cancer, reformulation is required to realise MPL’s full anticancer potential, and progression to formal Phase I and Phase II clinical trials using reformulated MPL is warranted. Successful Tablet Reformulation In May 2018 PharmAust announced that it had successfully reformulated monepantel into a tablet. This tablet will replace MPL liquid for use in the upcoming formal Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. In collaboration with BRI Pharmaceutical Research and AVISTA Pharma Solutions, PharmAust showed that a micronised tablet-based formulation was superior to MPL liquid in delivering - 4 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities monepantel at high doses suitable for taking into dose escalation clinical studies in canines. Since this time, and in further collaboration with BRI Pharmaceutical Research and Catalent Inc., PharmAust has optimised the presentation of the tablet so that it is now suitable for taking into Phase II clinical trials and coating with taste enhancers. Finalisation of the Formal Canine Clinical Phase I and II Protocols PharmAust has completed development of its Phase I and Phase II clinical trial study protocol for the use of MPL as an anticancer agent in canines with naturally occurring cancers. PharmAust has included the use of the new tablet in the study designs as well as identified cancer targets of interest, received ethics approvals from relevant authorities and recruited veterinarians willing to participate in these trials. Research and Development Targets 2018-2019 During the next 12 months, the Company’s focus will be aimed at: • • • • • • • further examining the mechanism of action of MPL upon cancer cells with the newly commenced collaboration with Dr Doug Fairlie at the Olivier Newton John Cancer Centre, validating preliminary studies demonstrating activity of MPL upon neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s Disease, conducting scale up manufacture of the tablets formulated for use in canines with cancer to cGMP quality performing optimization studies specifically for palatability and dosing for humans with cancer, determining the pharmacokinetic parameters, dietary enhancements and safety of the newly formulated tablet in both canines and humans in Phase I trials, undertaking Phase II trials for efficacy in canines with the new tablet and in accordance with the newly signed option agreement with Elanco, and identifying Clinical Centers prepared to evaluate the new MPL tablet in humans in Phase I and II trials, as a follow on from the Phase I clinical trial undertaken at the Royal Adelaide Hospital in 2015. Preparations for the trials in canines with cancer are now underway with tablet prototype finalisation, preliminary pharmacokinetics testing in canines, scale-up tablet manufacture and Phase I trial initiation sequentially commencing in Q3/Q4, 2018. Factors Supporting PharmAust’s Focus on MPL as an Anti-Cancer Drug: 1. Demonstration of activity against naturally occurring B-cell lymphoma in dogs, 2. Demonstration of a very good safety profile in animals tested to date, as well as the human participants in the clinical trial conducted at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, 3. Demonstration of activity against a key cancer marker in humans and canines, 4. 5. Extensive preclinical R&D package evaluating MPL in many cancers, Independent validation of monepantel’s specificity towards malignant cell lines and relatively benign effects upon non malignant cell lines by the newly commenced collaboration with Dr Doug Fairlie at the Olivia Newton John Cancer Centre, 6. Publications in peer-review journals describing anti-cancer activity of MPL in preclinical models, 7. The fact that MPL is already approved for the treatment of parasitic infections in farm animals, which implies that the drug has received extensive regulatory consideration as it is used in food-chain animals, The successful reformulation of MPL by BRI/Avista into a prototype tablet formulation, 8. 9. New Option to Licence Agreement entered into with Elanco Inc, a global provider of veterinary products, 10. The provision by Elanco of 5kg of GMP-quality MPL. Intellectual property As there is growing evidence that neuro-degenerative diseases can be slowed down by blocking the mTOR pathway, PharmAust has registered intellectual property on the effects of monepantel on neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. PharmAust plans to more closely assess potential commercial outcomes in these areas in FY19. EPICHEM PTY LTD - 100% OWNED SUBSIDIARY Epichem, PharmAust’s wholly owned subsidiary, has continued to make strong progress towards key operational milestones as well as build the contract sales and income activities.

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.

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor are outlined in note 28 to the financial statements. The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 28 to the financial statements do not compromise the external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: ● all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. ● Auditor’s Independence Declaration A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included within these financial statements. Auditor RSM Australia Partners continues in office in accordance with section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001. This report is made in accordance with a resolution of directors, pursuant to section 298(2)(a) of the Corporations Act 2001. On behalf of the directors Dr ROGER ASTON Executive Chairman 28 September 2018 Perth, Western Australia - 16 - For personal use only AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION As lead auditor for the audit of the financial report of PharmAust Limited for the year ended 30 June 2018, I declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, there have been no contraventions of: (i) The auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 in relation to the audit; and (ii) Any applicable code of professional conduct in relation to the audit. RSM AUSTRALIA PARTNERS Perth, WA Dated: 28 September 2018 DAVID WALL Partner For personal use only INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the members of PharmAust Limited Opinion We have audited the financial report of PharmAust Limited (Company) and its subsidiaries (Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the consolidated statement of 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 statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration. In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2018 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and (ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (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. For personal use onlyKey audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter How our audit addressed this matter Impairment of intangible non-current asset Refer to Note 8 in the financial statements Intangible assets are stated at $3,107,476 as at 30 June 2018 and comprise the intellectual property rights for the monepantel oncology platform (MPL). The MPL asset is not yet available for use and remains subject to annual impairment review by management the asset’s to assess whether recoverable amount is greater than its carrying amount. Management’s assessment involved:  Reviewing the key assumptions for the MPL value in use calculation model, which was prepared in the previous financial year, to determine whether there were any significant changes during the current financial year; and  Evaluating whether any events have occurred to indicate the MPL asset’s recoverable amount may be less than its carrying amount. Management’s assessment is subject to estimation uncertainty and requires significant management judgement. We determined this to be a key audit matter due the risk that the outcome of the impairment assessment could vary significantly if different assumptions are applied. Our audit procedures, in relation to management’s impairment assessment of the MPL asset, included:  Assessing whether there are any indicators of impairment of the MPL asset, including enquiring with management on the current and planned commercialisation activities;  Involving our financial modelling specialists to check the mathematical accuracy of the value in use model, including the appropriateness of the discount rate used;  Assessing the reasonableness of management’s assumptions included in the value in use model and whether there are any indicators that would require the re-estimation of the asset’s recoverable amount; and  Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures in Note 8 to the financial statements. For personal use onlyKey audit matter How our audit addressed this matter Revenue recognition Refer to Note 2 in the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2018, the Group has recognised sales revenue of $2,871,345. We determined revenue recognition be a key audit matter due to the following:   The balance is significant to the Group and there are risks associated with management override, completeness and accuracy of sales and the timing of revenue recognition for sales occurring on or around year end; and Sales generated the pharmaceutical from segment are comprised of revenue streams with varying contract terms and pricing elements, which may result in minor errors that could, in aggregate, have a material impact on the financial statements. Our audit procedures in relation to the Group’s revenue recognition included:  On a sample basis, we agreed the revenue amounts to various supporting documentation including a combination of approved contracts, price lists and proof of delivery documents to assess that the Australian revenue recognition criteria were met for recognised sales; Accounting Standards  For a sample of revenue received in advance, we recalculated and checked the allocation between revenue and current liabilities;  Reviewing sale transactions occurring near the reporting date to ensure that revenue had been recognised in the correct period;  Performing testing on journals to identify any management override of internal controls related to revenue recognition; and  Assessing the adequacy of the net sales disclosures contained in Note 23 Segment Reporting. Other information The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018, but does not include the financial report and the auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. For personal use only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.

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. 1 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 1 October 2018 by the Directors of the Company. (a) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of PharmAust Limited as at 30 June 2018 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. PharmAust Limited Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the consolidated entity. The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the consolidated entity. Losses incurred by the consolidated entity are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance. Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. - 27 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (b) Income Tax The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for: ● When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or ● When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. The parent and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 'separate taxpayer within group' approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group. Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the head entity. (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. - 28 - For personal use only2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (c) Plant and Equipment (Cont.) 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 3-20 years The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. Leasehold improvements and plant and equipment under lease are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits. (d) Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A distinction is made between finance leases, which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of leased assets, and operating leases, under which the lessor effectively retains substantially all such risks and benefits. Finance leases are capitalised. A lease asset and liability are established at the fair value of the leased assets, or if lower, the present value of minimum lease payments. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component of the lease liability and the finance costs, so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets acquired under a finance lease are depreciated over the asset's useful life or over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the consolidated entity will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term. Operating lease payments, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. (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 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. - 29 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (e) Plant and Equipment (Cont.) 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. 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. - 30 - For personal use only2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (f) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the group’s functional and presentation currency. Foreign currency transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss. (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. (h) Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Other long-term employee benefits The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Share-based payments Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price. The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods. - 31 - For personal use only2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 (i) (j) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents also includes bank overdrafts, which are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. (k) Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more than 60 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable may be impaired. The amount of the impairment allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. (l) 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. (m) Goods and services tax (‘GST”) and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position. 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 tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. (n) Inventories Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a 'first in first out' basis. Cost comprises of direct materials and delivery costs, direct labour, import duties and other taxes, an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure based on normal operating capacity, and, where applicable, transfers from cash flow hedging reserves in equity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts received or receivable. Stock in transit is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises of purchase and delivery costs, net of rebates and discounts received or receivable. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. - 32 - For personal use only2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (o) 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. (p) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of PharmAust Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. (q) 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. (r) 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 available for use, they are reviewed 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. (s) 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. (t) Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. (u) 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. - 33 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (v) Current and non-current classification Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in 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. (w) Trade and other payables These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. (x) Borrowings Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position, net of transaction costs. On the issue of the convertible notes the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond and this amount is carried as a non-current liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders equity as a convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in the subsequent years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss. (y) New, revised or amending accounting standards and interpretations adopted 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. (z) Business Combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit or loss. On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and - 34 - For personal use only2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) (z) Business Combinations (Cont.) measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer. Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information possible to determine fair value. (aa) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. Share-based payment transactions The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. 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. Employee benefits provision As discussed in note 1, the liability for employee benefits expected to be settled more than 12 months from the reporting date are recognised and measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be made in respect of all employees at the reporting date. In determining the present value of the liability, estimates of attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and inflation have been taken into account. Other finite life intangible assets not yet in use The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether other finite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital, royalty rates and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. - 35 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 2 REVENUE Sales OTHER INCOME Interest received Other revenue 3 INCOME TAX EXPENSE 3a No income tax is payable as a tax loss has been incurred for income tax purposes.

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. 5c Past due but not impaired As of 30 June 2018, trade receivables of $31,202 (2017:$ 372) 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 7,216 31,202 38,418 74,625 372 74,997 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. 37,174 6,269 15,125 58,568 36,794 4,291 3,583 44,668 574,015 574,015 486,773 486,773 6 OTHER CURRENT ASSETS GST receivables Bond Prepayments 7 Inventories Finished Goods - 37 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 8.

The calculation is based on budgets approved by management, assuming commercialisation through a royalty revenue stream for both human and animal patents. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model include: - - Royalty rate of 10% (2017: 10%); Post-tax discount rate of 30% (2017: 30%); The discount rate of 30% post-tax reflects management’s estimate of the time value of money and the group’s weighted average cost of capital.

The totals for each category of financial instruments, measured in accordance with AASB 139 as detailed in the accounting policies to these financial statements, are as follows: Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables (excluding GST) Total financial assets Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total financial liabilities Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management Note Consolidated 2018 $ 2017 $ 4 5a 10 11 1,875,431 2,590,330 248,353 222,187 2,123,784 2,812,517 616,825 425,641 361,873 487,500 1,042,466 849,373 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. - 42 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 17 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Cont.) 2018 Weighte d Average Interest Rate 1.05% 7.22% Floating Interest Rate $ Fixed Interest Rate Within 1 Year $ Fixed Interest Rate Within 1-5 Years $ Non-Interest Bearing $ Total $ 1,875,431 - 1,875,431 - (425,641) (425,641) 1,449,790 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 248,353 1,875,431 248,353 248,353 2,123,784 (616,825) - (616,825) (616,825) (425,641) (1,042,466) (368,472) 1,081,318 Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Total financial assets Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total financial liabilities Net Financial Assets/(Liabilities) Cash Flow Interest Rate Risk (Cont.) 2017 Weighte d Average Interest Rate 1.27% 6.86% Floating Interest Rate $ Fixed Interest Rate Within 1 Year $ Fixed Interest Rate Within 1-5 Years $ Non-Interest Bearing $ Total $ 2,590,330 - 2,590,330 - (487,500) (487,500) 2,102,830 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 230,061 2,590,330 230,061 230,061 2,820,391 (361,873) - (361,873) (361,873) (487,500) (849,373) (131,812) 1,971,018 Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Total financial assets Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Total financial liabilities Net Financial Assets/(Liabilities) Interest rate sensitivity analysis At 30 June 2018 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 $38,411 (2017: $ $20,422) lower/higher, mainly as a result of lower/higher interest income from cash and cash equivalents.

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 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. - 50 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 23 SEGMENT REPORTING(Cont'd) The consolidated entity operates in three business segments as disclosed below: i) Segment Performance Consolidated 2018 Revenue External sales Other external revenue Inter-segment revenue Total segment revenue Inter-segment elimination Total revenue per statement of comprehensive income Results Segment result from continuing operations before tax Consolidated 2017 Revenue External sales Other external revenue Inter-segment revenue Total segment revenue Inter-segment elimination Total revenue per statement of comprehensive income Results Segment result from continuing operations before tax Corporate Pharmaceutical $ $ Total $ - 388,720 - 388,720 2,890,057 17,127 93,199 3,000,383 2,890,057 405,847 93,199 3,389,103 (93,199) 3,295,904 (2,535,506) 13,827 (2,521,679) Corporate Pharmaceutical $ $ Total $ - 358,084 - 2,854,176 121,245 75,720 2,854,176 479,329 75,720 3,409,225 (75,720) 3,333,505 (1,607,977) 264,363 (1,343,614) - 51 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 23 SEGMENT REPORTING (Cont.) ii) Segment assets and liabilities Consolidated 2018 Segment assets Segment assets Total assets of the consolidated entity: Segment liabilities Segment operating liabilities Total liabilities of the consolidated entity: Consolidated 2017 Segment assets Segment assets Total assets of the consolidated entity: Segment liabilities Segment operating liabilities Total liabilities of the consolidated entity: ii) Revenue by geographical region Corporate $ Pharmaceutical $ Total $ 1,849,919 1,849,919 6,508,078 6,508,078 8,357,997 8,357,997 (137,732) (137,732) (1,082,047) (1,219,779) (1,082,047) (1,219,779) Corporate Pharmaceutical $ $ Total $ 2,550,925 2,550,925 5,644,338 5,644,338 8,195,263 8,195,263 (382,842) (382,842) (897,374) (1,280,216) (897,374) (1,280,216) Revenue by geographical region Revenue attributable to external customers is disclosed below, based on the location of the external customer: Switzerland Australia Others Total revenue Assets by geographical region The location of segment assets by geographical location of the assets is disclosed below: Australia Total assets Major customers CONSOLIDATED 2018 $ 2017 $ 1,336,080 462,760 1,497,064 3,295,904 1,448,510 1,060,565 824,430 3,333,505 8,357,997 8,357,997 8,195,263 8,195,263 The consolidated entity has a number or customers to which it provides both products and services.

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 Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 but the impact of its adoption is currently being assessed by the Group and yet to be finalised. - 54 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June 2018 29 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET MANDATORY OR EARLY ADOPTED (cont’d) AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal or implied) to be identified, together with the separate performance obligations within the contract; determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service, or estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Credit risk will be presented separately as an expense rather than adjusted to revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for promises to transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, a contract asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; the significant 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 Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 and the impact is expected to be minimal. AASB 16 Leases This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, measured as the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The exceptions relate to short-term leases of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or dismantling costs. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for the leased asset (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liability (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117. EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. For classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases. The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019 but there is no material impact to the Group. As the entity holds leases as at 30 June 2018 the impact of the new Leases standard is that leased asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, measured as the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term and a liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or dismantling costs. - 55 - For personal use only 2018 ANNUAL REPORT AND STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PharmAust Limited and its Controlled Entities Additional information required by the Australian Stock Exchange Limited Listing Rules, and not disclosed elsewhere in this report.
