OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Review of Operations

The period under review has seen significant advances on clinical progression of Biotron’s antiviral drug development program, with continued focus on clinical development of the Company’s lead drug, BIT225, in its HIV and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) programs.

Significant events achieved in this financial year include:

Commencement of a Phase Ib/IIa clinical trial of Biotron’s lead drug, BIT225, in HCV infected subjects. This marked a major milestone for the Company.
Demonstration that BIT225 is highly synergistic when combined with a new class of HCV antiviral agents known as NB5B polymerase inhibitors.
Presentation of data from the Company’s HIV and HCV programs at several international scientific conferences.
Initiation and successful completion of a Share Purchase Plan, raising $807,500 for further clinical development of BIT225.

Clinical Development of BIT225

BIT225 is an investigational, orally-administered, novel antiviral compound in development by Biotron for treatment of HIV and HCV infections. The successful completion of the first human trial of BIT225 during the second half of 2007 was a major value-adding milestone for Biotron. This trial followed on from the completion of a comprehensive program of preclinical safety studies, and demonstrated the safety of the drug in humans and its suitability for progression into trials in patient populations. The completed Phase I clinical trial in healthy volunteers supported the continued development of BIT225 into proof-of-concept human trials. The trial data can be used to progress BIT225 in both HCV and HIV patient populations, which significantly reduces the costs and timelines of Biotron's clinical development program.

In the year under review, Biotron commenced a Phase Ib/IIa trial of BIT225 in HCV infected patients, after receipt of the necessary ethics and regulatory approvals. The commencement of this trial marked another major milestone for the Company. The trial, code-named BIT225-003, was run over the two sites in Australia. The trial is a placebo-controlled, randomised study of the safety, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of BIT225 in patients with HCV infection. The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of BIT225. The secondary objectives are to assess the pharmacokinetics of BIT225 as well as to assess the antiviral efficacy of BIT225 in these patients.

Eighteen patients were randomly assigned to receive one of two dose levels of BIT225 or placebo. The use of two trial sites, based in Sydney and Brisbane, was aimed at maximising the recruitment rate for the trial. Patient recruitment was initially slower than expected, necessitating minor modifications to the trial design which were made with ethics and regulatory approvals. These resulted in a significant improvement in patient recruitment rates.

Since the end of the financial year, Biotron has announced the completion of the clinical phase of the Phase Ib/IIa trial, with successful dosing of all subjects. Data from the trial is currently being collated, analysed and reviewed to determine if it meets primary endpoint, and it is expected that this review will be completed during September 2009.

BIT225 represents a first-in-class drug for treatment of HCV, targeting the p7 protein of HCV. It is estimated that in the USA alone, some 4 million people have been infected with Hepatitis C with 2.7 million suffering from chronic infection.

Worldwide, 170 million people are infected. HCV causes inflammation of the liver, which may lead to fibrosis and cirrhosis, liver cancer and, ultimately, liver failure. Existing drugs for HCV have limited effectiveness and toxicity issues, leaving a significant need for new therapies. The worldwide market is currently almost US$3.0 billion, but is estimated that this market will expand to over US$10.0 billion as safe, effective therapies enter the market.

BIOTRON LIMITED

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Studies performed by Southern Research Institute, Maryland, USA, during the year under review, using a surrogate cell culture system, demonstrated that Biotron's lead antiviral drug, BIT225, is synergistic when combined with a particular class of antiviral drug. These drugs inhibit the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of HCV (also known as NS5B). NS5B inhibitors have been the focus of several international research and development programs and a number are in early clinical development. The finding is significant as there is a recognised need to develop antiviral drugs that work in combination to attack HCV. The finding that BIT225 works in combination with NS5B inhibitors to enhance the virus killing ability of both BIT225 and the NS5B inhibitors further improves the standing of BIT225 within this field.

These results extend the previously reported finding that BIT225 is synergistic with the current standard of care treatment for HCV (interferon and ribavirin). The results of this latest research demonstrate that higher levels of virus death could be effected using significantly lower levels of both drugs than if either is used alone. The major practical benefit of synergism between two anti-viral drugs is that, for therapeutic purposes, each drug would remain effective at lower plasma concentrations than if the combined effect was merely additive. This has the potential to decrease the risk of adverse drug side effects and the potential for generation of drug resistant virus strains, as drug levels in the plasma fall below effective concentrations, is reduced.

The use of BIT225 in combination with either the current standard of care treatment, or with NS5B inhibitors, holds exciting potential therapeutic treatment of human HCV infections.

BIT225 also represents a novel, first in class approach to the treatment of HIV. BIT225 specifically targets HIV in reservoir cells and represents an opportunity to attack HIV at its source in the body. Current HIV therapies have little or no effect on HIV in the underlying reservoir of infected cells where the virus hides from the immune system. The market for HIV is very large, with the US market alone for HIV worth over US$3.3 billion per annum. Biotron is currently progressing protocols and other documentation through the necessary ethics and regulatory processes, with the aim of progressing BIT225 into a Phase Ib/IIa trial in HIV-positive patients when funding permits.

These trials in HIV and HCV infected patients are critical steps in the Company's development. Demonstration that BIT225 can attack these viruses in patients will be a major advance in terms of Company and technology valuations. The Company is focused on achieving a successful outcome, and has been progressing discussions with potential pharmaceutical companies in anticipation of finalising a deal once these trials have been completed. The proposed trials are designed to benefit shareholders through significantly increasing the value of Biotron in the market and to its future pharmaceutical company partners.

Other Viral Programs

The Company has an impressive portfolio of clinical and preclinical antiviral programs developing drugs targeting HCV, HIV, Dengue virus and Influenza virus. At present, focus is on development of the HCV and HIV programs into trials in infected patient populations, and additional resources will be committed to these additional programs once the more advanced programs have been successfully commercialised or as resources become available.

The level of interest by the international community in Biotron’s antiviral programs was reflected by the selection of Biotron to participate in prestigious international scientific conferences over the last 12 months. In October 2008, Biotron was selected to present at the 6th Australasian Viral Hepatitis conference in Brisbane, and Biotron scientists were selected to present data at the biannual HIV DART conference in the USA in December 2008 and at the annual Conference of Retroviral and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) in Montreal in February 2009. Recently, a paper on preclinical efficacy of BIT225 was presented to an international conference at the 2nd World Summit of Antivirals held in Beijing, China, by Biotron’s collaborators at Southern Research Institute, Maryland, USA. Presentation at these meetings provided an excellent opportunity to further discuss the Company’s technologies with potential pharmaceutical company partners.

During the year, ongoing discussions were held with potential partners regarding the Virion technology. Whilst keen to secure a partner to take the Company’s compounds through into clinical development, Biotron can significantly increase the value of the technology by undertaking Phase I and II clinical trials before forming an alliance. This will translate into much higher returns to the Company in the form of upfront payments as well as increased milestone and royalty payments in the future.

BIOTRON LIMITED

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Patents

Biotron is focused on progressing patents related to its antiviral programs through the international patenting process. The Company recognises that the key to establishment of partnerships is the expansion and continued strengthening of Biotron’s intellectual property (IP) portfolio. Strong, defensible, international patents are essential to attract partners and to ensure a competitive advantage for the Company’s products in the marketplace. Biotron continues to build a strong wall of patents around its IP to maximise the value of the technologies and to ensure its competitive position.

A summary of Biotron’s patent portfolio is set out below:

TITLE	STATUS
WO0021538 Method of modulating ion channel functional activity.	Granted in Australia, New Zealand, USA and China. Under examination elsewhere.
WO9813514 Method of determining ion channel activity of a substance.	Granted in Australia, Europe (selected countries), Japan and USA. Under examination elsewhere.
WO04112687 Antiviral compounds and methods.	Granted in India, Singapore and South Africa. Under examination elsewhere.
WO6135978 Antiviral compounds and methods.	Entered into national phase.
PCT/AU2008/001130 Hepatitis C antiviral compositions and methods	PCT filed in August 2008.

Capital Raising

In the first quarter of 2009, Biotron initiated and completed capital raising to eligible shareholders via a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) and placement, raising $807,500 to fund the completion of the Phase Ib/IIa HCV clinical trial and ensure the Company is in a position to complete negotiation of a licensing deal.

At the time of the last capital raising in late 2007, Biotron anticipated leveraging shareholder funds, as it had done so before, by accessing matching funding for the Phase Ib/IIa trial through the Federal Government’s Commercial Ready grant program. Regrettably, and without any indication to do so, the Federal Government cancelled the Commercial Ready grant program in the May 2008 Federal budget, right at the time that Biotron was finalising trial protocols. Biotron had not anticipated having to fully fund the trial, so the cancellation of the grant program has had a significant adverse impact on the financial position of the Company.

The cancellation of the Commercial Ready grant program caused the Company to hold the commencement of a second Phase Ib/IIa clinical trial for the treatment of HIV and focus the Company's financial resources on the HCV clinical trial. The HIV clinical trial, which has finalised protocols ready for submission for ethical and regulatory approvals, could be commenced quickly with sufficient financial resources.

BIOTRON LIMITED

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Company is focused on achieving a successful outcome from the HCV trial, and has been progressing discussions with potential pharmaceutical companies. The trial has been designed to benefit shareholders through significantly increasing the value of Biotron in the market and to its future pharmaceutical company partners.

The Directors would like to thank all those shareholders who supported the Company by participating in this capital raising.

On behalf of the Board we would like to thank the dedicated Biotron staff for their commitment and efforts during the year. Biotron is poised to achieve the outcome that we have all been working towards – demonstration that its antiviral drug development program can produce new, novel drugs which can attack virus infections in humans, resulting in significant clinical benefit to patients, and generating major financial benefits to our shareholders.

We look forward to the next year with confidence.

BIOTRON LIMITED

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

This statement outlines the main Corporate Governance practices that were in place throughout the financial year, which comply with the Australian Stock Exchange ('ASX') Corporate Governance Council recommendations, unless otherwise stated.

Board of Directors

The board of directors is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Company including its strategic direction, setting remuneration, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of these goals and ensuring the integrity of internal control and management information systems. It is also responsible for approving and monitoring financial and other reporting.

The composition of the board has been determined on the basis of providing the Company with the benefit of a broad range of technical, administrative and financial skills, combined with an appropriate level of experience at a senior corporate level. The names and further information regarding the skills, experience, qualifications and relevant expertise of the directors are set out in the Directors’ Report. The board is composed of a minimum of three directors.

The composition of the board is monitored constantly to ensure that it provides the Company with the appropriate levels of both expertise and experience. The board comprises a majority of independent, non-executive directors including the Chairperson. The independence of directors is based on their capacity to put the best interests of the Company and its shareholders ahead of all other interests.

When a board vacancy exists, through whatever cause, or where it is considered that the board would benefit from the services of a new director with particular skills, the board identifies a panel of candidates with appropriate expertise and experience. A selection procedure is then completed and the board appoints the most suitable candidate who must stand for election at the next general meeting of shareholders.

Directors, other than the Managing Director, are subject to re-election by the shareholders at least every three years.

Having regard to the current membership of the board and the size, organisational complexity and scope of operations of the entity, a Nomination Committee, a Remuneration Committee and an Audit Committee have not been established.

Each director has the right to seek independent professional advice at the Company's expense. Prior approval of the Chairman is required, but such approval is not unreasonably withheld. A copy of the advice received by the director is made available to all other members of the board.

In the event that a potential conflict of interest may arise, involved directors must withdraw from all deliberations concerning the matter.

Remuneration

The remuneration of the directors is determined by the board as a whole, with the director to whom a particular decision relates being absent from the meeting during the time that the remuneration level is discussed and decided upon.

For details on the amount of remuneration and any amount of equity based executive remuneration payment for each director, refer to the Key Management Personnel note to the financial statements and the Remuneration Report in the Directors' Report.

Internal Controls

The board of directors acknowledges that it is responsible for the overall internal control framework, but recognises that no cost effective internal control system will preclude all errors and irregularities. The system of internal control adopted by the Company seeks to provide an appropriate division of responsibility and careful selection and training of personnel relative to the level of activities and size of the Company.

BIOTRON LIMITED

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The full board takes responsibility for reviewing financial reporting procedures, internal controls and the performance of the financial management. Selected internal control mechanisms employed to support the business include:

Investment appraisal – the Company has documented guidelines for capital expenditure and investment appraisals. These include annual budgets, expenditure review procedures and appropriate levels of authority.
Business planning, budgeting and reporting – a comprehensive business planning process includes evaluation of strategies, objectives, and risks resulting in an annual budget approved by the board. Monthly actual performance is reported against budget and revised forecasts for the year are prepared regularly.
Quality and integrity of employees – there are clearly defined accountabilities, performance measures, and reinforcement of values and ethics by management.

The CEO and CFO state in writing to the board that the Company's financial statements present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the Company's financial condition and operational results and are in accordance with relevant accounting standards.

External Auditors

Board nominees review the performance of the external auditors and meet with them during the half yearly review and annual audit to discuss any issues that have arisen with respect to accounting policies, any significant operational issues and the level of proposed audit fees. The auditor is requested to attend the Annual General Meeting and be available to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the auditor’s report.

KPMG, the Company's auditors, were appointed on 20 November 2001.

Ethical Standards

The Annual General Meeting is the main opportunity for the shareholders to hear the Managing Director and Chairman provide updates on the Company’s performance, ask questions of the board and to express views and vote on various matters of business on the agenda.

The shareholders are responsible for voting on the appointment of directors.

Risk Management

Due to the size of the Company, the number of officers and employees and the nature of the Company's business, a formal risk management policy and internal compliance and control system has not been implemented. The chief executive officer and chief financial officer declare, in writing, to the board that the system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the board has been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects.

Each director reviews the business risks affecting his particular area of expertise annually and reports to the board. The board then determines the appropriate actions to eliminate or minimise the identified business risks. The full board oversees the establishment, implementation and ongoing review of the Company’s risk management and internal control system. The internal control system covers financial, operational and compliance risks.

Recommendations made by external auditors and other external advisers are investigated by the board and, where necessary, appropriate action is taken to ensure that the Company has the internal control environment to manage the key risks identified. Ways of enhancing existing risk management strategies, including segregation of duties, employment and training of suitably qualified and experienced personnel are investigated by the board.

Performance Evaluation of the Board and Key Executives

Due to the size of the Company, the number of officers and employees and the nature of the Company's business, the board has adopted an informal and continuous performance evaluation process of the directors and key executives. The Company has not established formal performance review measures for the board or key executives nor has it established a nomination committee.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Remuneration Report - Audited

The policy of remuneration of directors and senior executives is to ensure the remuneration package properly reflects the person's duties and responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality. The board is responsible for reviewing its own performance. The non-executive directors are responsible for evaluating the performance of the executive directors who, in turn, evaluate the performance of all other senior executives. The evaluation process is intended to assess the Company's business performance, whether long term strategic objectives are being achieved and the achievement of individual performance objectives.

Remuneration generally comprises salary and superannuation. Longer term incentives are able to be provided through the Company's Incentive Option Plan which acts to align the directors and senior executives' actions with the interests of the shareholders. The remuneration disclosed below represents the cost to the Company for the services provided under these arrangements.

No directors or senior executives receive performance related remuneration. Options issued in prior periods as remuneration were subject to service conditions due to the nature of the Company’s operations.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Non-audit Services

During the year KPMG, the Company’s auditor, has performed certain other services in addition to their statutory duties.

The board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor and is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:

all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the board to ensure they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and
the non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.

A copy of the auditors’ independence declaration as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included in the Directors’ Report.

Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Company, KPMG, and its related practices for audit and non-audit services provided during the year are set out below.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

1. REPORTING ENTITY

Biotron Limited (the 'Company') is a company domiciled in Australia.

Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (‘AASBs’) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report of the Company also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The financial report was authorised for issue by the directors on 28 August 2009.

Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.

Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in the following note 1, Going concern:

Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Company has incurred significant trading losses of $1,776,099 in the year ended 30 June 2009 and has accumulated losses of $19,438,695 as at 30 June 2009. These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ongoing operation of the Company is dependent on:

the Company raising additional funding from shareholders or other parties; and/or
the Company reducing expenditure in line with available funding.

The directors have prepared cash flow projections that support the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These cash flow projections assume the Company obtains sufficient additional funding from shareholders or other parties. If such funding is not achieved, the Company plans to reduce expenditures significantly.

In the event that the Company does not obtain additional funding and/or reduce expenditure in line with available funding, it may not be able to continue its operations as a going concern and therefore may not be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the ordinary course of operations and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

BIOTRON LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the Company financial report.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified as those which may impact the entity in the period of initial application. They are available for early adoption at 30 June 2009, but have not been applied in preparing this financial report:

Revised AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements (2007) introduces the term total comprehensive income, which represents changes in equity during a period other than those changes resulting from transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Total comprehensive income may be presented in either a single statement of comprehensive income (effectively combining both the income statement and all non-owner changes in equity in a single statement) or, in an income statement and a separate statement of comprehensive income. Revised AASB 101, which becomes mandatory for the Company’s 30 June 2010 financial statements, is expected to have a significant impact on the presentation of the financial statements. The Company plans to provide total comprehensive income in a single statement of comprehensive income for its 2010 financial statements.
AASB 2008-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standard – Share-based Payment: Vesting Conditions and Cancellations clarifies the definition of vesting conditions, introduces the concept of non-vesting conditions, requires non-vesting conditions to be reflected in grant-date fair value and provides the accounting treatment for non-vesting conditions and cancellations. The amendments to AASB 2 will be mandatory for the Company’s 30 June 2010 financial statements, with retrospective application. The Company has not yet determined the potential effect of the amendment.
AASB 2008-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Process and 2008-6 Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from The Annual Improvements Process affect various AASBs resulting in minor changes for presentation, disclosure, recognition and measurement purposes. The amendments, which become mandatory for the Company’s 30 June 2010 financial statements, are not expected to have any impact on the financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are stated at their amortised cost less impairment losses.

Property, plant and equipment

Property plant and equipment are stated at their historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss using the reducing balance method from the date of acquisition at rates between 13% and 40% per annum.

BIOTRON LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

Research and development

Grants

Where a grant is received relating to research and development costs that have been expensed, the grant is recognised as revenue when there is reasonable assurance it will be received.

Costs

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in profit and loss when incurred.

Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalised only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour and overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use. Other development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss when incurred.

Capitalised development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are stated at their amortised cost, are non-interest bearing and are normally settled within 60 days.

Employee entitlements

Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liabilities for employee entitlements for wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided to reporting date, calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wages and salary rates that the company expect to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers compensation insurance and superannuation.

Long service leave

Liabilities for employee entitlements for long service leave is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs, that benefit is discounted to determine its present value.

Shares Capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared.

Taxation

Income tax

Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future are temporary differences and are not provided for. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

BIOTRON LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax ('GST'), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

Revenue recognition

Finance income

Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest rate method.

Earnings per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise share options granted to employees.

Incentive option plan

The Incentive Option Plan allows the Company’s employees or directors, or individuals whom the Plan Committee determine to be employees for the purposes of the Plan, with the opportunity to acquire options over unissued shares in the Company. The fair value of options granted is measured at grant date and spread as an expense over the period during which the employees or directors become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value of the options granted is measured using BlackScholes formula, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest except where forfeiture is only due to share prices not achieving the threshold for vesting.

Impairment

Financial assets

A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if any objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its fair value.

All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any cumulative loss in respect of an available-forsale financial asset recognised previously in equity is transferred to profit and loss.

An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost and available-for-sale financial assets that are debt securities, the reversal is recognised in profit or loss. For available-for-sale financial assets that are equity securities the reversal is recognised directly in equity.

BIOTRON LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment had been recognised.

Determination of fair values

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Trade and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

Share-based payment transactions

The fair value of employee share options is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

The calculation of basic loss per share at 30 June 2009 was based on the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of $1,776,099 (2008 - $1,882,093) and a weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year ended 30 June 2009 of 106,600,586 (2008 - 94,070,553), calculated as follows:

Net loss for the year Issued ordinary shares at 1 July Effect of shares issued on 21 December 2007 Effect of shares issued on 31 March 2008 Effect of shares issued on 22 May 2008 Effect of shares issued on 14 April 2009 Weighted average number of ordinary shares	2009 $ 1,776,099 2009 Number 104,443,565 - - - 2,157,021 106,600,586	2008 $ 1,882,093

Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and are entitled to one vote per share at shareholders' meetings. In the event of winding up of the Company, ordinary shareholders rank after creditors and are fully entitled to any proceeds of liquidation.

During the year ended 30 June 2009, the Company issued 10,093,750 (2008 – 14,700,000) ordinary shares through a Share Purchase Plan and placement for cash totalling $807,500 (2008 – $2,499,000). Total issue costs of $33,272 (2008 – $217,769) were recognised as a reduction of the proceeds of issue of these shares.

During the year ended 30 June 2009, no options were issued (2008 – 1,000,000). No ordinary shares have been issued as a result of the exercise of any option during the years ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2008.

The following options were on issue at 30 June 2009, each exercisable to acquire one fully paid ordinary share:

1,000,000 options, each exercisable at 35 cents to acquire one fully paid ordinary share at any time up to 30 September 2010. These options were issued as part of underwriting fee on the Share Purchase Plan to Martin Place Securities during the year ended 30 June 2008.
4,450,000 options, each exercisable at 35 cents to acquire one fully paid ordinary share at any time up to 30 September 2010 (of which certain options contained service conditions).
750,000 options, each exercisable at 40 cents to acquire one fully paid ordinary share at any time up to 30 September 2010 (of which certain options contained service conditions).
500,000 options, each exercisable at 45 cents to acquire one fully paid ordinary share at any time up to 30 September 2010 (of which certain options contained service conditions).

The fair value of the options at each grant date was determined based on the Black-Scholes formula. The model inputs for those options issued during the year ended 30 June 2008, were the Company's share price of $0.22 at the grant date, a volatility factor of 89.4% based on historic share price performance and a risk free interest rate of 7.25% based on the 10 year government bond rate.

Total expense arising from share based payment transactions recognised during the year ended 30 June 2009 was nil (2008 – $88,223).

During the year ended 30 June 2009, no options lapsed (2008 – 400,000 options with a value of $25,112 lapsed unexercised).

The weighted average exercise price of options at year end was $0.363 (2008 – $0.363)

16. EMPLOYEE AND DIRECTOR INCENTIVE OPTION PLAN

At 30 June 2009, the Company had 4 employees (2008 - 4). All other personnel are contracted by the Company on a consultancy basis.

The Company has an Incentive Option Plan to provide eligible persons, being employees or directors, or individuals whom the Plan Committee determine to be employees for the purposes of the Plan, with the opportunity to acquire options over unissued ordinary shares in the Company. The number of options granted or offered under the Plan will not exceed 10% of the Company's issued share capital and the exercise price of options will be the greater of the market value of the Company's shares as at the date of grant of the option or such amount as the Plan Committee determines. Options have no voting or dividend rights.

In the event that the employment or office of the optionholder is terminated, any options which have not reached their exercise period will lapse and any options which have reached their exercise period may be exercised within three months of the date of termination of employment. Any options not exercised within this three month period will lapse.

During the year ended 30 June 2009, no options were granted to employees (2008 - nil). No ordinary shares have been issued as a result of the exercise of any option granted pursuant to the Incentive Option Plan during the years ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2008.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE

The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Informal risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company.

The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The summaries below present information about the Company’s exposure to each of these risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, the management of capital and financial instruments.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises mainly from the risk of counterparties defaulting on the terms of their agreements. The carrying amounts of the following assets represent the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets:

Note Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables 6 Security deposits 7	Carrying amount 2009 $ 950,581 27,520 15,130 993,231	Carrying amount 2008 $ 2,063,596 59,483 25,219
		2,148,298

The Company mitigates credit risk on cash and cash equivalents by dealing with regulated banks in Australia. Credit risk of trade and other receivables is very low as it consists predominantly of amounts recoverable from taxation authorities in Australia.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE (Con’t)

Impairment losses

No impairment has been taken up against the Company’s financial assets.

None of the Company’s trade and other receivables are past due and no amount receivable has been renegotiated.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments:

Company 30 June 2009 Trade and other payables	Carrying amount $ Contractual cash flows $ Less than one year $ Between one and five years $ Interest $ 136,397 (136,397) (136,397) - -

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity management rests with the Board of Directors. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate funding and monitoring of future rolling cash flow forecasts of its operations, which reflect management’s expectations of expected settlement of financial assets and liabilities.

Interest rate risk

The Company’s income statement is affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact of such changes on interest income from cash and cash equivalents and interest bearing security deposits.

At balance date, the Company had the following mix of financial assets exposed to variable interest rate risk that are not designated as cash flow hedges:

Note Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Security deposits 7 Net exposure	2009 $ 950,581 15,130 965,711	2008 $ 2,063,596 25,219
		2,088,815

Sensitivity analysis

An increase of 100 basis points in interest rates throughout the reporting period would have decreased the loss for the period by the amounts shown below, whilst a decrease would have increased the loss by the same amount. The Company’s equity consists of fully paid ordinary shares. There is no effect on fully paid ordinary shares by an increase or decrease in interest rates during the period.

30 June 2009 30 June 2008 Capital management	$ 9,657
	20,888

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business.

The Board ensures costs are not incurred in excess of available funds and will seek to raise additional funding through issues of shares for the continuation of the Company’s operation. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.

The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities approximate their net fair values, given the short time frames to maturity and or variable interest rates.

18. FINANCIAL REPORTING BY SEGMENTS

The Company operates in the biotechnology industry in Australia.

19. OPERATING LEASE

The Company leases an office in North Ryde Sydney. The lease is for a period of 3 years with an option to renew lease after that 3 years. Lease payments are increased every year at an increment of 5% per annum.

During the year ended 30 June 2009, $51,351 was recognised as an expense in the income statement in respect of the operating lease (2008 - $ 25,818).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BIOTRON LIMITED

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Biotron Limited (the Company), which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2009, and the income statement, statement of recognised income and expense and statement of cash flows for the year ended on that date, a description of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes 1 to 19 and the directors’ declaration.

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

The directors of Biotron Limited are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial report comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We performed the procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations), a view which is consistent with our understanding of the Company’s financial position and of its performance.

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

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF BIOTRON LIMITED

In our opinion:

a) the financial report of Biotron Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
(i) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2009 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.

Material Uncertainty Regarding Continuation as a Going Concern

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1, “Going Concern” in the financial report. The conditions disclosed in Note 1 indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

Report on the remuneration report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 11 to 12 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2009. The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the remuneration report in accordance with Section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards.

Auditor’s opinion

In our opinion, the remuneration report of Biotron Limited for the year ended 30 June 2009 complies with Section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
