CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Dear Shareholders,

In August of this year I was delighted to accept the appointment as Non-Executive Chairman of Anteo Diagnostics Limited at such an exciting stage in the company’s growth and development.

I believe that the Mix&Go[tm] technology has considerable potential, exemplified by the fact that the Company has signed two agreements with leading global healthcare companies and the extensive ongoing interest across different market segments.

The Healthcare sector has always been of interest to me and was a reason I joined the Board of Anteo. As shareholders are no doubt aware, the Mix&Go[tm] technology helps in the earlier detection of disease and consequently broadens the range of available treatment options available for many illnesses. Mix&Go[tm] can therefore potentially improve the health and wellbeing of possibly millions of people. This is a unique opportunity for Anteo, and I believe my commercial and business skills will be valuable in helping to realise the value of the Mix&Go[tm] technology for the benefit of Anteo’s shareholders.

I am also very encouraged by the skills and capabilities of the management team that Anteo has in place, and Geoff Cumming and his team have the full confidence of the Board.

My Board colleagues and I look forward to continuing the ongoing work with Geoff and his team to ensure our strategies and processes provide the best opportunity for Mix&Go to deliver its considerable potential for the benefit of the Company and its stakeholders.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank James Henderson who retired as Chairman in May of this year. James was instrumental in recapitalising Anteo and giving the company the financial flexibility to pursue its growth opportunities.

I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support in what has been a year of real progress for Anteo. I would also like to acknowledge our partners and customers for their confidence in the company, and also thank our loyal and dedicated staff for their hard work and commitment during the year. Anteo is in excellent shape.

Mr. Mark Bouris Non-Executive Chairman 29[th] August 2011

CEO’S REPORT

Dear Shareholders,

Financial year 2011 has been a year of significant progress for Anteo Diagnostics Limited, and I am pleased to report that we have established a solid foundation for future growth.

The Company has taken a number of key steps during the year which position the Company well to execute its business objectives.

STABLE FINANCIAL PLATFORM

In February, we raised $5.1m through the exercise of 78,845,313 options. Over 96% of the options issued were exercised, taking cash on hand to $6.85m as at 30 June 2011. On our current burn rate, and excluding any future revenues, Anteo has sufficient funds until the end of CY2013.

MIX&GO[TM] MARKET-READY PROGRAMME

In my first report to shareholders in 2009, focus was given to Company programs to better understand the Mix&Go[TM] technology its market applications and improvement of internal skill sets. This ongoing task delivers continuous improvement of our processes and capabilities to ensure that we are able to control the critical facets of our business. By doing so we provide you, our shareholders, with assurance that Mix&Go[TM] will be given the best opportunity for a successful commercial outcome.

With this objective in mind, resources are allocated with reference to a matrix that ranks the most commercially valuable targets and ensures that they receive prioritisation .

I am pleased to report the Company has made significant improvements over the last year, so that:

  • We have total confidence that all samples will perform exactly the same in a client’s laboratory as it does in ours.

  • The ease of use, stability, sensitivity and scalability of Mix&Go[TM] is proven across a broad range of beads formats and reagents.

  • Optimisation of Mix&Go[TM] for different client applications is such

  • that sensitivity levels for immunoassays are equivalent to those attained in Molecular diagnostics; and

  • that troublesome bead batches used by clients are performing uniformly with the use of Mix&Go[TM] .

  • Our scientific team is broadly recognised by clients for the quality of their work.

  • Our client management system has evolved to the stage whereby our turnaround times are quick and responsive to client needs, and provides us with ongoing interactions at different levels to ensure Mix&Go[TM] assessment is being conducted properly and in a reasonable timeframe.

  • Our business development system enables us to monitor and assess the progress with clients, their viability as customers for us and examine the key drivers within their organisations.

COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS PROVIDING CREDIBILITY

In February, Bangs Laboratories (‘Bangs’) licensed their second product using the Mix&Go[TM] technology. Bangs’ implementation of the technology for their Silica Bind-IT product was significant, as it strengthened our partnership with a leading global company in the healthcare space, and confirmed the market acceptance of the technology.

Whilst the commercial benefits from our relationship with Bangs are yet to fully materialise, we are now working hard with the company to promote the benefits of the Mix&Go[TM] technology to their customers.

Our agreement with Merck Chimie SAS (‘Merck’) is a very good point of reference for Anteo as it positions Mix&Go[TM] as a credible and proven technology. We expect that Merck’s recent acquisition of Millipore, a major company in the separations and purifications market, will help facilitate our entry into that market segment.

In March, the European Patent Office issued confirmation that it intended to grant the ‘Generation of Surface Coating Diversity’ patent to Anteo. We are expecting this patent will be granted in due course and this is a

3

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

CEO’S REPORT

crucial development in protecting the intellectual property that led to the discovery of the Mix&Go[TM] technology.

We continue to be encouraged by our growth pipeline, Anteo has over 60 different companies assessing the Mix&Go[TM] technology. The feedback from these companies has been extremely positive, instilling further confidence and optimism in Mix&Go[TM] .

As previously mentioned, Anteo is exposed to many different markets for which Mix&Go[TM] can be effectively used, however, after spending considerable time analysing potential size, returns and likely challenges, we continue to focus our primary attention on the In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) market.

These are the companies that develop, manufacture and sell the instruments in pathology laboratories and the “test kits” that are used on those instruments. They operate in a highly regulated environment and need to meet the exacting standards of regulatory authorities such as the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Association (EMEA).

Importantly, throughout the year we have learnt that the major global IVD players undertake extensive due diligence assessing our technology. We have been consistently informed that if these potential customers implement Mix&Go[TM] , they will be doing so across their range of assays. This broad and significant implementation helps provide an understanding and insight into the cautious and patient nature of the negotiations with the IVD companies. Anteo remains confident that agreements will materialise in due course.

BOARD RENEWAL PROGRAM

A significant amount of time has been spent in 2011 to ensure the appropriate Board and senior management team is in place to drive the company’s growth and development as we move forward. Ms. Sandra (Sam) Andersen was appointed Non-Executive Director in May. Most recently, Sam was the Managing Director of ASX-listed Eyecare Partners Limited, a company with 41 optometry businesses and a staff of 300 people. Sam has also held senior roles in a number of listed technology companies, has held senior executive positions at ANZ, NAB and Commonwealth Banks and is well networked within the finance community. Sam’s experience as a company director and operational manager in the ASX-listed healthcare sector will add a great deal of value to Anteo.

Our Board renewal program has continued into the current financial year where we announced that Mr. Mark Bouris was appointed as Non-Executive Chairman of Anteo. Mark has over 25 years experience in finance and corporate development and as Anteo’s commercial operations develop, Mark’s proven record in these early growth phases and his guidance during this period will be a valuable asset.

Our Board renewal program remains ongoing.

STRENGTHENING OUR TEAM

During the year Anteo appointed two new scientists to work on the continued development of the Mix&Go[TM] technology and continue the high level of responsiveness to requests from our collaborators.

We were also fortunate to secure the services of Dr Tina Baumgartner, a highly regarded and well networked professional in the United States (US) healthcare sectors. Tina has had considerable success in a short period of time identifying smaller IVD companies, Life Science companies active in clinical research, Point of Care companies and companies in the Separations Market that would benefit from access to Mix&Go™. Her activities have significantly increased our opportunity pipeline in these very large markets.

Anteo is in the process of recruiting three additional scientists which will give us the necessary skills base to further develop potential opportunities. Anteo now has a team of 12 scientists and research and development professionals based in the state of the art research facility in Brisbane Technology Park, QLD.

CEO’S REPORT

OUTLOOK

Anteo is well placed with a strong cash position, a much more commercially experienced Board, sound business management processes, a strong scientific skills base and a growing pipeline of licensing opportunities.

I would also like to join our Chairman to take this opportunity to thank our staff for their hard work and commitment during the year, our customers and partners and loyal shareholders for their continued support.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board of Anteo Diagnostics Limited aims for best practice in the area of corporate governance and supports the governance practices contained in the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s (“ASX CGC”) Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (2[nd] edition).

The statement below indicates the degree of conformance to the ASX CGC recommendations as at the date of this report.

Structure of the Board

Directors at the date of this annual report and their skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position they hold are on page 14 in the Directors’ Report.

The Board of Directors should comprise a majority of Independent Directors. When determining whether a Non-Executive Director is independent the Director must not fail any of the following:

  • Less than 5% of Company shares are held by the Director and any entity or individual directly or indirectly associated with the Director.

  • Has not held an executive position within the Company within the last three years.

  • Has not held a position as a principal in any firm providing material professional advice to the Company within the last three years.

  • Has no material contractual relationship with the Company or Group other than being a Director.

Anteo Diagnostic’s Board consists of two non-independent and two independent directors. The Company believes that although it does not meet the technical requirements of the ASX CGC in relation to the majority of the Board being independent, in practical terms it considers the majority of the Directors are independent.

Richard Martin provides the Company with a supervisory CFO services which under the listing rules renders him non-independent. Richard brings, in all other aspects, an independent role to the board of directors and the decisions that the Board makes. The Anteo Diagnostic’s Board, in general, is independent in thought and judgement and aims in all cases to add value.

The ASX CGC recommendations require the materiality threshold that was used to determine whether a Director is independent to be disclosed. Notwithstanding there are no contracts outside those disclosed in the Annual Report, a level of materiality of 5% of the Independent Directors’ annual income has been set for any non-remuneration based consulting or other financial arrangements.

The ASX Corporate Governance Principles recommend that the Chairperson should be an independent director. The Chairman of Anteo Diagnostics is an independent director.

Directors may access or request such information as they consider necessary to diligently fulfil their responsibilities. Independent professional advice may be sought on Company related matters, at the Company’s expense, subject to prior approval by the Chairman.

Directors are required to comply with their legal, statutory and other duties and obligations when acting in their capacity as Directors of the economic entity, including acting in good faith and with due diligence and care. Directors are required to avoid conflict of interests with the companies within the economic entity. Any actual or potential conflict of interest is required to be disclosed immediately to the Board and those conflicted parties do not take part in the decision making processes regarding the conflict of interest.

The Board annually revisits its objectives and duties and evaluates the effectiveness of its performance taking these into account. Informal evaluations were undertaken during the year, however, a formal evaluation was not undertaken due to changes in the board composition. A formal evaluation will be undertaken this year. Remuneration of Directors, including retirement benefits (superannuation) and entitlements under equity-based remuneration schemes are set out in the Directors’ Report under “Remuneration Report”.

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The Executive Director and Non-executive Directors annually review the Company’s requirements for skills and experience within the board of Directors, and consider the skills and experience of existing Directors. Should any skill gaps be evident, the Nomination & Remuneration Committee will make recommendations to the Board taking into account:

  • The size of the Board will be limited to encourage efficient decision making.

  • The selection process will be formal and transparent.

  • When a new Director is required, the current Directors (with the assistance of external advisors if necessary) will identify potential candidates who have the following attributes:

  • are able to contribute to the ongoing effectiveness of the board

  • are able to exercise sound business judgment

  • are able to think strategically

  • have demonstrated leadership ability

  • have high levels of professional skill

  • have appropriate personal skills.

  • Nominees’ competencies and qualifications.

  • A talented and diverse workforce is a key competitive advantage and Anteo is committed to seeking out and retaining the finest human talent to ensure top business growth and performance.

Performance evaluation of executive Directors and executives was carried out during the reporting period and was in accordance with the process disclosed.

The matters reserved for the Board and delegated to senior executives, and a copy of the Board Charter are publically available on the Company’s website at www.anteodx.com.

Ethical standards and corporate code of conduct

The Board has adopted a corporate code of conduct to ensure that each of its members and all employees are aware of the requirement to adhere to best principles of ethical standards which encompass:

  • The management of conflicts of interest to ensure that Directors and executives act in the best interests of all stakeholders in the business.

  • Compliance with all laws and regulatory requirements.

  • Adoption of acceptable standards of custodianship and use of Company assets.

  • Ensuring that all Company information remains confidential except where disclosure is either authorised by the Board or legally mandated.

  • Enforcement of accountabilities and the fostering of an environment in which all officers and employees can identify and bring to the attention of Directors any unlawful or unethical behaviour.

A full copy of the Company’s Code of Conduct is publically available on the Company’s website at www.anteodx.com.

The Board has adopted a Diversity Policy which is publically available on the Company’s website at www.anteodx.com.

Anteo Diagnostics recognises its talented and diverse workforce as a key competitive advantage. Our business success is a reflection of the quality and skill of our people. Our diversity policy encompasses differences in ethnicity, gender, language, age, sexual orientation, religion, socio-economic status, physical and mental ability, thinking styles, experience, and education and our policy encompasses both recruitment and management of human resources on the basis of diversity.

Anteo Diagnostics is committed to seeking out and retaining the finest human talent to ensure top business growth and performance and to employing the best people to do the best job possible at all levels within the Company.

Anteo Diagnostics’ workforce is diverse across many dimensions.

Business Risk Management

The identification and management of risk inherent to the operation of the economic entity is managed by the Directors on a day-to-day basis. Where necessary individual Directors do, through the forum of regular Board meetings, bring matters before the Board collectively who will review, evaluate and deal with any matters arising in a manner that serves the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The Board has received assurance from the Chief Executive Officer and Finance Director that the declaration on page 52 of the annual report provided in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each Director of Anteo Diagnostics Limited, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.

Remuneration Policy

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Non-executive Directors and Executive Directors and Senior Executives (collectively Executives) of the economic entity is as follows:

Directors and Executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the Government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits.

All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Shares (if any) attained by Directors and Executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the Director or Executive. Options are valued using standard methodologies set out in Notes 1(r) and 5 of the Financial Statements. The Company’s policies prohibit Directors and Executives entering into transactions in associated products which limit the economic risk in relation to securities and this policy is enforced.

Executive Director and Executives (Executives)

The remuneration policy of Anteo Diagnostics Limited currently consists of a base salary and in some cases the consideration of a short term cash incentive, and a long term incentive through the issue of options at the Board’s discretion. The Board believes the policy is appropriate as it repositions itself in the market, aligning Executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives.

The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the Executives was developed by the Nomination & Remuneration Committee, and approved by resolution of the Board. All eligible Executives receive a base salary and superannuation with options issued at the discretion of the Board. The Board of Directors, excluding Executive Directors, review Executive packages annually by reference to the economic entity’s performance, Executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. Executive performance is evaluated based on achievement of Business Plan and objectives set by the Board. Performance evaluation of Executives was carried out during the reporting period, in accordance with the remuneration policy.

17

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Non-Executive Directors

The Board policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Nomination & Remuneration Committee determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. Any changes to 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 performance of the economic entity. However to align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to participate in the employee share option plan. Non-Executive Directors receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the Government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits.

Performance Based Remuneration

As part of each Executive’s remuneration package there is a performance based component, consisting of key performance indicators (“KPIs”) which can affect the vesting of options that have been granted. The intention of this programme is to facilitate goal congruence between Executives with that of the business and shareholders. The KPIs are set with a certain level of consultation with Non-executive Directors and Executives to ensure “buy-in”. The measures are particularly tailored to the areas each Executive is involved in and has a level of control over. The KPI’s target areas the Board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit.

Company Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Directors’ and Executives’ Remuneration

During the financial year Dr Geoff Cumming was issued 13 million options pursuant to shareholder resolution. These options form part of the Long Term Incentive component of his salary package and are subject to defined conditions designed to match Company performance with vesting. The criteria for vesting are measured on an annual basis and require a positive movement in the share price of the Company and for that movement to be in the top 50% of companies in the ASX Health Care index on a percentage basis. These options have an exercise price of $0.07 on expiry date of 8[th] November 2014. Mr Richard Martin and Ms Lara Iacusso were each issued 1,400,000 options by shareholder resolution on the same terms as Dr Cumming.

The Company’s employees were issued a total of 12.775 million options forming the Long Term Incentive component of their salary package. 3.775million vested immediately and have an exercise price of $0.07 and an expiry date of 8[th] September 2014. The remaining 9 million options vest over 3 years and are dependent on performance goals measured annually. The performance criteria for the vesting of these options is the same as for Dr Cumming. These options have an expiry date of 8[th] November 2014. Details of options that were issued or exercised during the financial year are set out on page 21.

As stated above, the Board reviews staff incentives annually, incorporating bonus and share option elements. In the previous five years there have been two methods applied to achieve goal congruence between shareholders and executives, the first being a performance based bonus based on KPIs, the second being the issue of options to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. Current KPIs are based upon success in key business outcomes, improvement in share price and holistic companywide performance criteria, including human resources, OH&S and technical outcomes.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards.

Anteo Diagnostics Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

The accounting policies set out below have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2011. The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis, except for cash flow information.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.

The Board is continually assessing the capital needs of the Company’s business and addressing the alternatives available to fund the operational requirements of the Company. As at the 30[th] June 2011 the Company had $6,863,593 in cash reserves. The Board believes that based upon current spending forecasts there is adequate funding to provide for the Company’s requirements to complete its strategic plan and in any case beyond 12 months of operation.

Significant accounting policies

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report:

(a) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in banks and investments with original maturities of three months or less.

(b) Comparatives

When required by accounting standards or accounting policy, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

(c) Employee benefits

Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits which are not expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the consolidated entity in respect of the services provided by employees up to reporting date.

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when incurred.

29

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

(d) Financial assets

Financial investments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition, these investments are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any evidence that an investment is impaired. Any such impairment is reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

(e) Foreign currency transactions

All foreign currency transactions during the financial year are brought to account using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items at reporting date are translated at the exchange rate existing at reporting date. Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

(f) Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except:

  • i. where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or

  • ii. for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.

The amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables and payables.

Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows.

(g) Goodwill

Pursuant to the adoption of AASB3 Business Combinations (reverse acquisitions), goodwill, representing the excess of the cost of combination to Bio-Layer Pty Limited over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired of Anteo Diagnostics Limited (formerly BioLayer Corporation Limited and prior to that SSH Medical Limited), was recognised as an asset and not amortised, and was tested for impairment. This impairment was recognised in profit or loss and will not be subsequently reversed.

(h) Government grants

Government grants are assistance by the government in the form of transfers or resources to the consolidated entity in return for past or future compliance with certain conditions relating to the operating activities of the entity. Government grants include government assistance where there are no conditions specifically relating to the operating activities of the consolidated entity other than the requirement to operate in certain regions or industry sectors.

Government grants relating to income are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs.

30

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

(i) Impairment of assets

At each reporting date, the consolidated entity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the consolidated entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at each reporting date and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not subsequently reversed.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the reversal of the impairment is treated as a revaluation increase.

(j) Income tax

Current tax

Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive statement of financial position liability method in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items.

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilized. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures except where the consolidated entity is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probably that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with these investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realized or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that

31

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the consolidated entity expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company/consolidated entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Current and deferred tax for the period

Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill.

(k) Intangible assets

Patents, trademarks and licenses

Patents, trademarks and license costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Research and development costs

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

(l) Overheads

The Company allocates overheads for the operating entity to their business cost centres. This procedure has been adopted in this period to more accurately represent operating costs of the economic entity.

(m) Payables

Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the economic entity becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services.

(n) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared by combining the financial statements of all the entities that comprise the economic entity, being the Company (the parent entity) and its subsidiaries as defined in Accounting Standard AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. Consistent accounting policies are employed in the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

On acquisition, the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. If, after assessment, the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired exceed the cost of acquisition, the deficiency is credited to profit and loss in the period of acquisition.

The consolidated financial statements include the information and results of each subsidiary from the date on which the Company obtains control and until such time as the Company ceases to control such entity.

32

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, and unrealised profits arising within the economic entity are eliminated in full.

(o) Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment, leasehold improvements and equipment under finance lease are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition.

Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost or other revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation:

Leasehold improvements 10% - 50%
Plant and equipment 20% - 40%
Furniture and office equipment 20% - 40%
Leased plant and equipment 20%

(p) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cashflows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cashflows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that recovery will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

(q) Revenue recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the economic entity has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods.

Rendering of services

Revenue for a contract to provide services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. Revenue is not recognised until each milestone has been successfully completed under the terms of the contract.

Royalties and licence fees

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

33

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

Interest revenue

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial assets.

(r) Share-based payments

Share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value for options is measured by use of the Black Scholes valuation model.

The fair value determined as at the grant date of the share-based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the economic entity’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest.

Terms and conditions of Share-based payments are set out in the Remuneration Report.

(s) New accounting standards and interpretations

In the current year, the Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. The 2010 comparatives contained in these financial statements may therefore differ from those published in the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2010 as described below.

Significant effects on current, prior or future periods arising from the first-time application of the standards discussed above in respect of presentation, recognition and measurement of accounts are described in the following notes.

  • Adoption of AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements (revisions), AASB 2007-8 and 2007-10 Amendments arising from the revisions to AASB 101

Anteo Diagnostics Limited have adopted the revisions to AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements in these financial statements which has resulted in the introduction of the statement of comprehensive income, changes to the statement of changes in equity, and other terminology changes.

New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

The AASB has issued new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods and which the Group has decided not to early adopt. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group is as follows:

  • AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard is applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments. The Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements.

The key changes made to accounting requirements include:

  • simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;

  • simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;

  • removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;

  • removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost;

  • allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;

  • requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and

  • requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.

  • AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard removes the requirement for government-related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other government-related entities and clarifies the definition of a “related party” to remove inconsistencies and simplify the structure of the Standard. No changes are expected to materially affect the Group.

  • AASB 2010–4: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 1, AASB 7, AASB 101 & AASB 134 and Interpretation 13] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011). This Standard details numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to Accounting Standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. Key changes include:

  • adding an explicit statement to AASB 7 that qualitative disclosures should be made in the context of the quantitative disclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks arising from financial instruments;

  • amending AASB 101 to the effect that disaggregation of changes in each component of equity arising from transactions recognised in other comprehensive income is required to be presented, but is permitted to be presented in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes;

  • adding a number of examples to the list of events or transactions that require disclosure under AASB 134; and

  • making sundry editorial amendments to various Standards and Interpretations.

This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

  • AASB 2010–5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 101, 107, 112, 118, 119, 121, 132, 133, 134, 137, 139, 140, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 112, 115, 127, 132 & 1042] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011).

This Standard makes numerous editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRSs by the IASB. However, these editorial amendments have no major impact on the requirements of the respective amended pronouncements.

  • AASB 2010–6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures on Transfers of Financial Assets [AASB 1 & AASB 7] (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011).

This Standard adds and amends disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets, especially those in respect of the nature of the financial assets involved and the risks associated with them. Accordingly, this Standard makes amendments to AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards, and AASB 7: Financial Instruments: Disclosures, establishing additional disclosure requirements in relation to transfers of financial assets.

35

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

  • AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102, 108, 112, 118, 120, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 137, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 5, 10, 12, 19 & 127] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard makes amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations as a consequence of the issuance of AASB 9: Financial Instruments in December 2010. Accordingly, these amendments will only apply when the entity adopts AASB 9.

As noted above, the Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements from adopting AASB 9.

(t) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

Key Estimates - Impairments

The Company assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Per AASB 136 value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.

The Board have critically considered the carrying value of the parent entity’s investment (and corresponding associated inter-company receivable balance) at year end.

(c) Options

Directors and specified Executives’ remuneration has been included in the Remuneration Report section of the Directors Report. Further information regarding value of options issued during the year is on page 19 of the Directors Report.

The fair value of options issued to Directors and Executives was determined using the Black Scholes method of valuation as the basis for determining value. Regard was given to the vesting terms of the options and that they are not transferable by halving the nominal calculated amount. The follow parameters were used in the calculation:

i) Expected Volatility – 19% ii) Share price $0.047 and $0.053 iii) Exercise Price $0.07 iv) Risk Free Rate 5.5% v) Variation of the option life dependent on vesting conditions from 1 to 4 years. vi) It was assumed all options would be exercised at time of expiry.
