CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Dear Shareholders,

I am pleased to report on the progress of Anteo Diagnostics through 2014. It has been a positive year in which we have made significant progress with our existing commercial partnerships. Through the process we have identified additional opportunities for the application of Mix&Go[TM] with key global healthcare companies.

The company has performed well in the 2014 financial year and there have been frequent and constructive interactions with management and technical teams at the global healthcare companies with whom we are partnering. We are working closely and collaboratively with them to refine techniques and applications for our technology within their portfolio products with a view to optimising outcomes. Despite a few delays, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and has strengthened the company’s position to establish longer term partnerships with a number of these key companies. Anteo has achieved commercial traction and a reputation for entrepreneurial and dynamic problem-solving.

On the home-front, we have expanded our expert team and both the head office and satellite offices are operating efficiently. We are well primed to successfully manage a year of accelerated growth in 2015.

The details of the scientific developments and commercial events are set out in Operating and Financial Review.

When I wrote to you last year there were three Mix&Go formulations. Today there are more than 50. Each proven formulation has a targeted application that has been developed to respond directly to existing and foreseen customer needs. Many are already in use in the commercial environment. This enables us to provide better than expected outcomes for customers.

The benefit of continuing to realise the broad capabilities of Mix&Go is that we can demonstrate clearly to the marketplace that Mix&Go is more than a range of products – it is a technology platform. Mix&Go delivers the surface you want on the surface you have .

As our scientific team tests and proves additional formulations and applications, we move closer to commercial realization of our previously stated aims: to assist earlier detection of disease and to contribute to the rapid development of novel clinical tests.

This progress is certainly encouraging from a commercial viewpoint It is increasingly gratifying as it becomes obvious that there is growing awareness of our products and technology and the unique benefits delivered across a variety of applications in industry circles.

Anteo’s core business remains healthcare markets, including in vitro diagnostics (IVD), life science research (LSR) and point of care (POC) diagnostics. However, because our patented technology is unique and versatile we see numerous opportunities beyond the healthcare markets. Our researchers are paving the way for us to move into other sectors in the future.

The profile of Anteo has been raised through a considered marketing plan and well-received presence at a number of international conferences and trade fairs. The company has applied for two new patents that continue to build the value of the technology platform, extend the life of the technology and give greater confidence to our customers. The company now holds a total of eight patent families, including four families related to Mix&Go technology. More are expected in the future.

I would like to take this opportunity to comment on the company’s considerable advances in 2014. Anteo has matured as a company. This is clearly demonstrated by our world-class research and

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

development capacity. Our capabilities beyond the laboratory, in the manufacturing environment and commercial world, now match the company’s exemplary technical credentials. Anteo has been incorporated in the ASX All Ordinaries Index.

Anteo is one of a small number of Australian companies supported by a government grant from Commercialisation Australia this year. Our grant is one of the largest offered and was awarded following a highly selective process.

Anteo continues to be well funded to meet our objectives.

I would like to thank Dr Geoff Cumming and our very dedicated team for their efforts in the past year. The Board has full confidence in the direction the leadership team is taking.

I would also like to thank our shareholders for their continued support in 2014. Anteo is in a strong position and the Board has every confidence that 2015 will deliver pleasing growth.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Anteo Diagnostics Ltd. is an Australian biotechnology company that delivers cutting-edge solutions based on supramolecular chemistry. Anteo uses its patented technology to develop, manufacture and commercialise proprietary surface coatings for use in healthcare, life sciences and beyond. Its core technology, Mix&Go has an ever increasing range of products.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

In Financial Year 2013-2014 Anteo has successfully continued on a commercialisation agenda, built brand awareness, diversified our technology, and recorded good results and data through a variety of established partnerships. Each of these operational areas will escalate in the 2015 year. Because Anteo has strengthened its ‘foundations’, we are now even better equipped to maximize future growth in new and exciting ways. This has been achieved by following a strategic development plan.

Commercialisation: Following the $5.5 million capital raising in December we have expanded our expert team in Australia and overseas and greatly expanded the range of Mix&Go formulations at our disposal. These strategic steps mean we are in a stronger position to meet the requirements and challenges we will face as we focus on further commercialisation of the Mix&Go technology and accelerating our growth.

In 2014 we announced a number of promising partnerships with key global healthcare companies. In November we announced a partnership with BBI Solutions with the objective of ensuring that Mix&Go become a standard component of BBI’s product portfolio. As forecast in the Heads of Terms (HoT) the collaboration has now embarked on its third phase. Both parties remain confident that this will lead to a commercial agreement on successful completion of the project. We’re now working collaboratively to extend our commercial viability and relevance. We are achieving superior outcomes from existing technology and developing additional improvements that may be implemented with minimal change in time, based on the Mix&Go technology platform, we may well replace standard technology with better solutions.

While there has been considerable interest in the marketplace regarding the ‘promise’ of our technology platform for a number of years, the developments over the course of this year mark a significant step forward for the commercial acceptance of Mix&Go. The development of products by our scientific team enables a more intimate level of interaction with potential customers by ‘demystifying’ the technology and translating it directly into an adaptable product offering. This means we can proactively demonstrate the technology and we can work closely with existing and new partners to identify the Mix&Go formulation and protocols that will enable them to harness the significant efficiencies, savings and advantages associated with Mix&Go.

Companies that have followed Anteo’s progress passively are engaging more and expressing greater interest. The context hasn’t necessarily changed but the market perspective has. We are receiving increasing numbers of requests from third parties wanting to utilise our products in their laboratories.

"For protein coupling, we have great results with Mix&Go Biosensor reagents on label free detection techniques. This could be a breakthrough in biosensor methods. Mix&Go allows one-step simple immobilization of protein on chips and for antibodies even in a right orientation.”

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

The scope for Anteo’s engagement with global healthcare companies continues to improve. The Feasibility Agreement Anteo entered into with a global healthcare company just prior to the start of the 2014 financial year (previously referred to as PoC 1) is tracking well. There have been welcome developments as a result of this work and we have agreed to develop this work further in the immediate term in order to fully explore the potential. There is now a dedicated core team working on this important partnership at Anteo’s headquarters as part of this ongoing and fruitful collaboration.

This team, in conjunction with international counterparts, is looking at the ways that our Mix&Go technology can assist in multiple steps. Because of this development we are likely to extract greater benefits in the short and long term. We anticipate that this collaboration will deliver a product that is best in class internationally.

Operations: In FY 14 we appointed five senior scientists. Since the last report we have expanded the business development capability and most recently appointed a USA based VP Scientific Affairs, Mr Josh Soldo. The range of activities completed successfully, and outlined in this report, has resulted in greater organisational control. Anteo is well positioned to accelerate its recent growth and expand the applications of Mix&Go within healthcare, from diagnostics to separations and conceivably to in vivo applications such as drug delivery, and into industrial uses.

Brand Development and Market Outreach: By providing the market with ready-to-use research tools we will not only generate sales revenue, but more importantly we will actively engage research and development teams that will gain a hands-on understanding of the unique capabilities of Mix&Go. This approach also allows us to build many of our ‘trade secrets’ into the products thereby capturing greater value from our expertise as well as our proprietary technology. Combined with other efforts, this step will be instrumental in broadening the market awareness, knowledge and excitement about our technology.

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Product Development in the Labs: Mix&Go products demonstrate the utility of our technology, the cost advantages, the performance advantages and the manufacturing advantages. The library of more than 50 Mix&Go formulations developed this year delivers greater opportunities to reach into industrial and in vivo areas. We have developed a suite of products to exemplify the benefits we are claiming, and as a result, we can more readily demonstrate these benefits in real terms to our customers.

An example of this is the recent AACC conference in Chicago, USA where we officially launched the AMG Coupling kit. The kit is a product that contains both our proprietary technology and a significant amount of our ‘know-how’. By combining all aspects of our intellectual property into a product, Anteo can create high value products that should increase the success rates for third parties testing Mix&Go for the first time, without a significant drain on our internal resources. Our initial experience confirms this. The barrier to initial feasibility testing has been lowered.

Patents: The value of the Mix&Go technology has been highlighted and further safeguarded by the filing of two patents with others planned. Anteo’s growing portfolio of patents in effect ‘legitimise’ the claims made regarding the extensive applicability of Mix&Go in its various incarnations.

The provisional application, ‘Conjugating Molecules to Particles’ has been reduced to practice to our satisfaction and has recently gone to PCT. Rather than doing the same with ‘Coating of Particles’ application, the company decided to file a different application, ‘Heterofunctional Binding Systems’ with other applications planned in the future. This approach strengthens and builds on our existing patent portfolio more effectively and broadens the field of use to new areas, such as the commercially valuable market sectors of bioseparations and cleantech.

The PCT announcement relating to ‘Conjugating Molecules to Particles’ is significant. The ability to put more than one protein onto a particle is very laborious using normal covalent chemistry. In a nutshell we have confirmed through the process of exemplifying this patent application that, using Mix&Go, we can link multiple proteins to create new multifunctional constructs. When this is attempted using traditional methods it is far more time consuming and often not successful. With Mix&Go we can have a protocol in a matter of weeks with the added benefit of limitless reproducibly and an ability to quantitatively determine the relative proportions of each protein. Beyond the lab, the commercial significance of this extends, for example, to enhanced methods of drug delivery, in vivo imaging and a range of novel magnetic-fluorescent nanocomposites for diverse biomedical uses.

As mentioned, more patentable material will emerge as we develop new formulations for broader applications based on our core Mix&Go technology. We aim to grow our patent portfolio and continue developing novel formulations able to address different surface situations.

“Protecting the Mix&Go technology and its potential uses remains an ongoing priority for Anteo and the developments announced recently are pleasing. We look forward to ensuring that we secure as strong a position as is possible in these key strategically important areas of great commercial need and, if required, defending our position vigorously. We look forward to updating shareholders on the outcome.” Dr Geoff Cumming, CEO

Mix&Go’s UNIQUE CAPABILITIES

The surface you want on the surface you have powered by Mix&Go

==> picture [415 x 207] intentionally omitted <==

Attaching fragile proteins to synthetic surfaces is often required in modern drug discovery research, life science research and development, as well as for the development of therapeutic and diagnostic products. Depending on the particular method and application, many different synthetic materials - magnetic beads, various plastics, glass, metals, and porous membranes - are used. The surface characteristics of these materials vary enormously as do the type, size, and number of biomolecules to be immobilized. Maintaining the activity of biomolecules on these synthetic surfaces continues to be an industry challenge. Standard chemistries tend to damage a large percentage of the biomolecules attached to the synthetic surface. Damage results in reduction or loss of function of the biomolecule requiring the manufacturer to either use a large excess of these expensive molecules or sacrifice performance in their tests.

Mix&Go solves these problems and like a double-sided molecular velcro firmly yet flexibly binds biological molecules to synthetic surfaces.

WHAT DISTINGUISHES Mix&Go?

Mix&Go is easy to use and provides incomparable stability. It is reproducible, more sensitive and does not damage delicate biomolecules. This sets it apart.

Mix&Go provides previously unheard of control and efficiencies across the board. The elements which clearly distinguish it from other approaches are:

  • Simplicity and versatility

  • Mix&Go functions in a benign neutral environment, that is, water. Organic solvents/reagents, high vacuum or high energy techniques are not required, but they are vital in traditional methods.

  • Mix&Go provides the ability to control reaction speed and manipulate surfaces of all sorts of materials using different Mix&Go variations.

The efficacy and scope for the applications of Mix&Go is established and assured.

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Mix&Go is an excellent tool for controlling and managing interactions between differing or similar objects on a level and in a way that is efficient, stable and far superior to existing widely-used methods.

Mix&Go has a broad range of applications both in Life Sciences and other areas. In everyday healthcare applications this means that previously complex tests, involving laboratories and logistics, can be performed with conclusive results achieved in an instant in the GP’s rooms, or at home.

The potential applications for this unique technology go well beyond the scope of Anteo’s current focus: life sciences and diagnostics. The company has a clear, measured plan to explore and realise these opportunities as the business grows.

REVIEW OF FINANCES

The Company had a cash balance of $7.07 M at the end of the reporting period. In December 2013 the Company undertook a placement and raised $5.5M. Through the year the Company received $1.20 M from the Commonwealth R&D Tax Incentive Scheme. The Company will, again, lodge an application under this scheme for the period to 30 June 2014 and would expect to receive payment by January 2015.

The Company received $0.84M from Commercialisation Australia Early Stage Commercialisation Grant of $1.7M and expects to receive an additional $0.64M grant monies in the year ending 30th June, 2015. The Company forecasts current cash reserves will last through 2016 without any further contracts being executed.

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 17 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 three independent and two executive directors. The Company now meets the requirements of the ASX CGC in relation to the majority of the Board being independent.

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’ REPORT

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each Director and relevant Executives of Anteo Diagnostics Limited.

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:

The remuneration structure that has been adopted consists of the following components:

  • Fixed remuneration being annual salary; and

  • Short term incentives, being employee share schemes and bonuses.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration on a periodic basis by reference to recent employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.

The payment of bonuses, share options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee annually as part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All bonuses, options and incentives must be linked to pre-determined performance criteria.

Short term incentive (STI)

Anteo performance measures involve the use of annual performance objectives, metrics, performance appraisals and continuing emphasis on living the company values. The performance measures are set annually after consultation with the directors and executives and are specifically tailored to the areas where each executive has a level of control. The measures target areas the Board believes hold the greatest potential for expansion and profit and cover financial and non-financial measures. The KPI’s for the Executive Team are summarised as follows: Performance area:

  • Financial – completion of agreements, profitability and improvement in share price; and

  • Non-financial - strategic goals set by each individual business unit and holistic companywide performance criteria, including human resources, Workplace, Health & Safety and technical outcomes.

The STI program incorporates both cash and share-based components for the executive team and other employees. The Board may, at its discretion, award bonuses for exceptional performance in relation to each person’s pre-agreed KPIs.

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 methodologies set out in Notes 1(r) and 5 of the Financial Statements.

Executive Directors and Executives (Executives)

The remuneration policy of Anteo Diagnostics Limited currently consists of a base remuneration 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

20

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

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.

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 at the date of this report is 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits.

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED – CONSOLIDATED ENTITY ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

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. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under the Australian Accounting Standards. 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 2014. 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 2014 the Company had $7,070,722 in cash reserves. The Board believes that based upon current spending forecasts there is adequate funding to provide for the Company’s requirements to carry on its strategic plan and 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.

30

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

(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.

31

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

(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 probable 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

32

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

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 10 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.

33

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

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, grants and licence fees

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

34

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

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 and Hull White valuation models.

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 Note 5.

(s) New accounting standards and interpretations

A number of new and revised standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013. Information on these new standards is presented below.

AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

AASB 10 supersedes AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (AASB 127) and AASB Interpretation 112 Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities . AASB 10 revises the definition of control and provides extensive new guidance on its application. These new requirements have the potential to affect which of the Group’s investees are considered to be subsidiaries and therefore to change the scope of consolidation. The requirements on consolidation procedures, accounting for changes in non-controlling interests and accounting for loss of control of a subsidiary are unchanged.

Management has reviewed its control assessments in accordance with AASB 10 and has concluded that there is no effect on the classification (as subsidiaries or otherwise) of any of the Group’s investees held during the period or comparative periods covered by these financial statements.

AASB 11 Joint Arrangements

AASB 11 supersedes AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures (AAS 131) and AASB Interpretation 113 Jointly Controlled Entities- Non-Monetary-Contributions by Venturers . AASB 11 revises the categories of joint arrangement, and the criteria for classification into the categories, with the objective of more closely aligning the accounting with the investor’s rights and obligations relating to the arrangement. In addition, AASB 131’s option of using proportionate consolidation for arrangements classified as jointly controlled entities under that Standard has been eliminated. AASB 11 now requires the use of the equity method for arrangements classified as joint ventures (as for investments in associates).

The Group does not have any joint arrangements.

AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

AASB 12 integrates and makes consistent the disclosure requirements for various types of investments, including unconsolidated structured entities. It introduces new disclosure requirements about the risks to which an entity is exposed from its involvement with structured entities.

Consequential amendments to AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

AASB 127 now only addresses separate financial statements. The parent entity does not prepare separate financial statements. AASB 128 brings investments in joint ventures into its scope. However, AASB 128’s equity accounting methodology remains unchanged.

(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.

(g) Remuneration practices

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:

The remuneration structure that has been adopted consists of the following components:

  • Fixed remuneration being annual salary; and

  • Short term incentives, being employee share schemes and bonuses.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration on a periodic basis by reference to recent employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.

The payment of bonuses, share options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee annually as part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All bonuses, options and incentives must be linked to pre-determined performance criteria.

43

ANTEO DIAGNOSTICS LIMITED ABN 75 070 028 625

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

Short Term Incentive (STI)

Anteo performance measures involve the use of annual performance objectives, metrics, performance appraisals and continuing emphasis on living the company values. The performance measures are set annually after consultation with the directors and executives and are specifically tailored to the areas where each executive has a level of control. The measures target areas the Board believes hold the greatest potential for expansion and profit and cover financial and non-financial measures.

The KPI’s for the Executive Team are summarised as follows: Performance area:

  • Financial – completion of agreements, profitability and improvement in share price; and

  • Non-financial - strategic goals set by each individual business unit and holistic companywide performance criteria, including human resources, Workplace, Health & Safety and technical outcomes.

The STI program incorporates both cash and share-based components for the executive team and other employees. The Board may, at its discretion, award bonuses for exceptional performance in relation to each person’s pre-agreed KPIs.

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 methodologies set out in Notes 1(r) and 5 of the Financial Statements.

Executive Directors and Executives (Executives)

The remuneration policy of Anteo Diagnostics Limited currently consists of a base remuneration 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.

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 remuneration is inclusive of a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the Government, which was 9.25% for the year and is currently 9.5%, and they do not receive any other retirement benefits.
