Corporate Governance Statement
The Board is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of the Company on behalf of the shareholders by whom it is elected and to whom it is accountable.
In accordance with the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations: 2nd Edition (Revised Principles) ( the Principles ), the Corporate Governance Statement must contain specific information and also report on the Company’s adoption of the Council’s best practice recommendations on an exception basis, whereby disclosure is required of any recommendations that have not been adopted by the Company and why. The Company’s corporate governance principles and policies are therefore structured with reference to the Principles, which are as follows:
-
1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight.
-
2: Structure the board to add value.
-
3: Promote ethical and responsible decision making.
-
4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting.
-
5: Make timely and balanced disclosure.
-
6: Respect the rights of shareholders.
-
7: Recognise and manage risk.
-
8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly.
A number of the Recommendations under the Principles recommend that certain governance documents should be made publicly available, ideally by posting such information on the company’s website. All corporate governance principles and policies, regarding the Company as required by the Principles are set out in this Corporate Governance Statement.
1. Lay Solid Foundations for Management and Oversight
Recommendation 1.1: Companies should establish the functions reserved to the board and those delegated to senior executives and disclose those functions.
The Board is committed to maximising Company and management performance, thereby generating appropriate levels of shareholder value and financial return.
The Board, therefore, ensures that the Company is properly managed to protect and enhance shareholder interests and that the Company, its directors, officers and employees operate in an appropriate environment of corporate governance.
The Board is responsible for, inter alia, development of strategy, oversight of business and Company management, risk management and compliance systems and monitoring performance. The Board has established certain policies and protocols in relation to the Company’s operations, some of which are summarised in this Corporate Governance Statement.

SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY ACN 001 285 230
Recommendation 1.2: Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of senior executives.
The performance of the Board, individual Directors and key executives is reviewed regularly, and has taken place during this reporting period.
The Company has not established a Remuneration or Nomination Committee as subcommittees of the Board. Remuneration and nomination issues are discussed and resolved at Board meetings and accordingly, the Board is responsible for determining and reviewing the remuneration of the Directors. This process requires consideration of the levels and form of remuneration appropriate to securing, motivating and retaining executives with the skills to manage the Company’s operations. In making decisions regarding the appointment of Directors, the Board as a whole periodically assesses the appropriate mix of skills and experience represented on the Board. The Board may also obtain information from, and consult with management and external advisers, as it considers appropriate.
The remuneration policy for the Directors is disclosed in the Directors’ Report.
Recommendation 1.3 Companies should provide the information indicated in the Guide to reporting on Principle 1.
In accordance with the ‘Guide to Reporting on Principle 1’, the Company provides the following information:

Recommendation 2.3: The roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer should not be exercised by the same person
At the date of this Corporate Governance Statement Mr Terry Cuthbertson is the Chairman of the Board. The Company does not currently engage an Executive Officer due to the size of the Company and its current level of operations.

Recommendation 2.5: Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of the
board, its committees and individual directors.
The Board reviews and evaluates the performance of the Board and the Board committees. The process is to involve the assessment of all of the Board’s key areas of responsibility. The Board’s contribution as a whole is reviewed and areas where improvement can be made are noted. The performance evaluation process is as follows:
-
each Director will periodically evaluate the effectiveness of the Board and its committees and submit observations to the Chairman;
-
the Chairman of the Board will make a presentation incorporating his assessment of such observations to enable the Board to assess, and if necessary, take action;
-
the Board will agree on development and actions required to improve performance;
-
outcomes and actions will be minuted; and
-
the Chairman will assess during the year the progress of the actions to be achieved.

-
The term of office held by each Director in office at the date of the Annual Report is detailed in the Director’s Report.

Recommendation 4.1: The Board should establish an Audit Committee
The Company has not established an Audit Committee as recommended under Recommendation 4.1 as the Board is of the view that, having regard to the Company’s current level of operations and the number of current Directors of the Company, the implementation of an Audit Committee is currently cost prohibitive. As the Company’s level of operations increases, the Company will consider establishing an Audit Committee
Accordingly, it is the Board’s responsibility to establish and maintain an effective internal control framework to examine the effectiveness and efficiency of the management of the Company and significant business processes such as the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records and the integrity of financial information, the implementation of quality assurance practices and procedures and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.

The Board and senior management are aware of the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX and have written policies and procedures in place to disclose any information concerning the Company that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price of the Company’s securities. Furthermore, the Directors and senior management of the Company acknowledge that they each have an obligation to immediately identify and immediately disclose information that may be regarded as material to the price or value of the Company securities.
6
SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY ACN 001 285 230

The Directors of the Company ensure that the Secretary is aware of all information to be presented at briefings with analysts, stockbrokers, shareholders, the media and the public. Prior to being presented, information that has not already been the subject of disclosure to the market and is not generally available to the market is the subject of disclosure to the ASX.

If information that would otherwise be disclosed comprises of matters of supposition or is insufficiently definite to warrant disclosure, or if the effect of a disclosure on the value or price of the Company’s securities is unknown, the Company may request that the ASX grant a trading halt or suspend the Company’s securities from quotation. Management of the Company may consult the Company’s external professional advisers and the ASX in relation to whether a trading halt or suspension is required.

Remuneration Report (audited)
This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Sun Biomedical Limited and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.
The remuneration policy adopted by the Company has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives, such as options, which are exercisable at levels in excess of the Company’s share price when granted.
The Directors believe the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the consolidated group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.
The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the consolidated group is as follows:
15
SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY ACN 001 285 230
Report of the Directors (Continued)
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, is developed and approved by the Directors after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants where deemed appropriate. The Directors will review executive packages annually by reference to the consolidated group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. The Directors seek ratification of Executive remuneration packages by shareholders at general meeting. In the current year the remuneration is not linked to performance due to the stage in the life cycle of the company.
All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.
The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The board 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. 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. The aggregate amount of remuneration has been set at $100,000.
Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the consolidated group. Currently, all directors are paid $10,000 per annum. Remuneration for Directors and Executives for the period is as follows:

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations), other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board on 28 September 2010.
The financial report covers the consolidated group of Sun Biomedical Limited and controlled entities, except for Sun Biomedical Laboratories, Inc. and Sun Biomedical Limited as an individual parent entity. Sun Biomedical Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
The financial report of Sun Biomedical Limited and controlled entities, and Sun Biomedical Limited as an individual parent entity comply with all Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) in their entirety. Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report of Sun Biomedical Limited and controlled entities, and Sun Biomedical Limited as an individual parent entity complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the consolidated group in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of Preparation
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs.
Significant Estimates and Critical Judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies.
The following significant judgments and critical estimates have been made in preparation of this financial report. If these judgments or estimates were to significantly change this could have a material effect on the financial statements.
1. Parent Entity – impairment of intercompany receivable During the year the recoverability from Sun Biomedical Laboratories Inc was considered to be impaired based on the recoverable amount assessed. Further information on the impairment can be found in Note 9.
2. Impairment of intangible assets During the year there were no intangible assets to be tested for impairment.
3. Non-recognition of deferred tax assets
A deferred tax asset has not been recognised due to the uncertainty of the recoverability of tax losses.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
Accounting Policies
(a) Principles of Consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity controlled by Sun Biomedical Limited. Control exists where Sun Biomedical Limited has the capacity to dominate the decision-making in relation to the financial and operating activities of another entity so that the other entity operates with Sun Biomedical Limited to achieve the objectives of Sun Biomedical Limited.
All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the consolidated group during the year, their operating results have been included from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less any impairment losses in the individual financial statements of Sun Biomedical Limited.
(b) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads where applicable. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity.
(c) Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, where applicable.
(i) Leases
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to entities in the consolidated group are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the consolidated group will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability. Lease payments received reduce the liability.
(ii) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets.
- (iii) The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate Plant and equipment 5 - 22.5% Leased plant and equipment 25 - 33 %

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
(d) Financial Instruments
Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value (which represents cost) on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Other Financial Assets
Other financial assets, including investments in controlled entities, are recognised at cost, less where applicable any impairment losses.
Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.
Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.
Fair value estimations
The fair value of Financial assets and Financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and disclosure purposes. The nominal value less estimated credit adjustment of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair values of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rates that is available for similar financial instruments.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. If recoverable amount is assessed as lower than carrying amount, impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for doubtful receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorgansiation, and defaults or delinquent payments (more than 90 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the impairment losses is recognised in the income statement.
(e) Intangibles
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property is recognised at cost of acquisition and is amortised over the period in which its benefits are expected to be realised. The intellectual property is amortised over seven years. The balances are reviewed annually for impairment and any balance representing future benefits for which the realisation is considered to be no longer probable are recognised in the income statement as impairment losses.

(f) Research and Development
Under AASB 138: Intangible Assets, costs associated with the research phase of the development of an asset must be expensed. Where no intangible asset can be recognised, research and development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period as incurred.
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following are demonstrated:
-
the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
-
the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
-
the ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
-
how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
-
the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
-
the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
(g) Income Tax
The consolidated group adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on the profit from ordinary activities adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be recognised directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the consolidated group will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and the consolidated group will continue to comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
(h) Cash & Cash Equivalents
-
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash includes: • cash on hand and on call deposits with banks or financial institutions, net of overdrafts; and
-
investments in money market instruments with less than 3 months to maturity.
(i) Comparative Figures
Where necessary comparative figures are adjusted to conform with the changes in presentation of the current period.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
(j) Employee Entitlements
Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee entitlements arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee entitlements expected to be settled within one year together with entitlements arising from wages and salaries and annual leave, which will be settled after one year, have been measured at their nominal amount. Other employee entitlements payable later than one year have not been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows as the amounts involved are not material. Contributions are made by the company to an employee superannuation fund and are charged as expenses when incurred.
(k) Revenue
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to the customers. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers.
(l) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.
(m) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Nonmonetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Exchange difference arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement.
Group companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:
-
Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date.
-
Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period.
-
Retained profits are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
-
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed of.
(n) Investments in Associates
Investments in associated companies are recognised in the parent financial statements at cost and in the consolidated financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting. Associates are all entities over which significant influence is exercised over an investee. Significant influence exists where the investor has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investees but does not have
29
SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 18 001 285 230
NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
control or joint control over those policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. The groups investment is associates includes goodwill (net of any impairment) identified on acquisition. The group’s share of its associates’ post acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement and adjusted to the carrying amount of the investment. Unrealised gains or losses between the group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the group’s interest in the associate.
(o) Equity based payment transactions
The Group provides benefits to officers (including directors) and some payments to consultants of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby officers and consultants render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with officers and consultants is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by applying a Black Scholes pricing model.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, but is linked to the price of the shares of Sun Biomedical Limited (‘market conditions’).
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant officers and consultants become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting date’).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.
(p) Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the assets value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
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.

(q) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(r) Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated as net loss attributable to members of the parent entity, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) , divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted loss per share is calculated as net loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
-
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
-
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
-
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
(s) New accounting standards and interpretations
The following accounting standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued by the Accounting Standards Board but are not yet effective, are expected to effect the group in the initial period of adoption and have not been applied in preparation of this financial report:
AASB 8 Operating Segments (Issued February 2008) and AASB 2007-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Arising from AASB 8
AASB 8 and AASB 2007-3 are effective for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2009. AASB 8 will result in a significant change in the approach to segment reporting, as it requires adoption of a ‘management approach’ to reporting financial performance for segments. This information will be based on what the key decision makers use internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The adoption of AASB 8 when it becomes mandatory is expected to significantly change the way the segment information is presented, but is not expected to have an impact on any reported amounts.
Revised AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements and AASB 2007-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 101
A revised AASB 101 was issued in September 2007 and is applicable for reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2009. It requires changes to the way that the primary statements are presented but will not have any effect on reported amounts.
None of the other standards, amendments or interpretations issued which are not yet effective are expected to change any of the reported amounts of the Group.
(u) Business combinations
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, including business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Where equity instruments are issued in an acquisition, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity.

SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 18 001 285 230
NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Deferred tax assets of Australian Entities have not been brought to account as it is not probable within the immediate future that tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised. Given that the company will not be operating the ‘same business’ and is unlikely to satisfy the ‘continuity of ownership’ test given its changing share register, it is considered improbable that the company will be able to claim these tax losses. Should it be possible to do so after any return to profitability, the company will conduct a review of its share register and claim any tax losses where appropriate.

Note 4: Discontinued operations
On 30 April 2009, the consolidated group announced its decision to dispose of its USA manufacturing and distribution division, thereby discontinuing its operations in this business segment. Consequently, the parent company exercised its first ranking charge over all the assets of SBL which was held as security for the intercompany loan which amounted to US$3,088,806. The enforcement of security involved transferring the ownership of the patents to the parent company, the retrenchment of all SBL staff and the closure of the premises at Blackwood, New Jersey by the end of April 2009. The entire intercompany loan has been written off as at 30 June 2009.
Financial information relating to the discontinued operation to the date of disposal is set out below. The financial performance of the discontinued operation to the date of sale which is included in profit/(loss) from discontinued operations per the income statement is as follows:
| Revenues from discontinued operations Other income from discontinued operations Raw materials and consumables used Employee benefits expense Consulting fees Insurance Advertising and marketing expense Administration expense Legal expenses Rent Impairment of loans Impairment of intangible assets Realised loss on Promissory Note Depreciation and amortisation expense Other Bad debts written off Loss on disposal of non current assets Loss before income tax Income tax expense attributable thereto Tax losses for the year not recognised Income tax expense Loss after income tax from discontinued operations attributable to members of the parent entity |

(a) Impairment tests for intangible assets – Sun Biomedical Laboratories Inc. Intellectual Property
The intellectual property capitalised through the acquisition of Sun Biomedical Laboratories Inc. related to five patents for device and proprietary technology. Following enforcement of the first ranking security over the loan to SBL and the closure of the US operations on 30 April 2009, these patents have been transferred back to the Parent entity. In light of the closure of the US operations, the directors have fully impaired the carrying value of the intellectual property.

Note 16: Statement of Operations by Segments (continued)
Accounting Policies
Segment revenues and expenses are those directly attributable to the segments. Segment assets include all assets used by a segment and consist principally of cash, receivables, inventories, intangibles and property, plant and equipment, net of allowances and accumulated depreciation and amortisation. While most such assets can be directly attributed to individual segments, the carrying amount of certain assets used jointly by two or more segments is allocated to the segments on a reasonable basis. Segment liabilities consist principally of accounts payable, employee entitlements, accrued expenses, provisions and borrowings. Segment assets and liabilities do not include deferred income taxes.
Business Segment
Drug screening relates to the Sun Biomedical business and the development and sale of screening products for drugs of abuse. This business was discontinued during the 2009 financial year.
Geographic Segment
Although the consolidated entity’s divisions are managed on a global basis they operate in two main geographical areas:
Australia – the home country of the parent entity and the principal location of management and the financing of the operations.
United States – comprises operations for the manufacture and development of the company’s products. These operations were discontinued in prior financial year.

Note 17: Financial instruments
(a) General objectives, policies and processes
In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.
There have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group’s finance function. The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of these risks on the Group where such impacts may be material. The board receives monthly financial reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that the other party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge their obligation resulting in the Group incurring a financial loss. This usually occurs when the debtors or counterparties to derivative contracts fail to settle their obligations owing to the Group.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the balance sheet date is as follows:

(d) Market rate risk
Market risk arises from the use of interest bearing and foreign currency financial instruments. It is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in interest rates (interest rate risk) or foreign exchange rates (currency risk). The Company and Group are not subject to other price risk on its financial instruments.
i. Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises on cash and cash equivalents, and receivables from related parties. The Group does not enter into any derivative instruments to mitigate this risk. As this is not considered a significant risk for the Group no policies are in place to formally mitigate this risk.
Sensitivity to changes in interest rates:
If interest rates were to move 100 bps up or down in the next 12 months, the following effect on reported profits or losses from all interest bearing financial assets and financial liabilities, is expected:
-
The profit effect on the consolidated group of an interest rate increase of 1% is $11,637 (2009:
-
$2,405) and the profit effect of an interest rate decrease is $(11,637) (2009:$(2,405)).
-
The profit effect on the parent entity of an interest rate increase of 1% is $11,637
-
(2009:$2,405) and the profit effect of an interest rate decrease is $(11,637) (2009:$(2,405)).
ii. Currency risk
The Company is not exposed to currency risk.
iii. Other Price risk
Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices largely due to demand and supply factors. Equity securities price risk arises from investments in equity securities. The Group has the following investments in equity securities:

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
Note 20: Equity Based Payments (continued)
The options outstanding at 30 June 2010 had a weighted average exercise price of $0.09 (2009: $0.09) and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 0.9 years (2009: 1.9 years). Exercise prices range from $0.02 to $0.10 in respect of options outstanding at 30 June 2010.
No options were granted during the year. In 2010, the price was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model applying the following inputs at grant date:
| 2010 | 2009 | |
|---|---|---|
| Weighted average exercise price | - | - |
| Weighted average life of the option | - | - |
| Underlying share price | - | - |
| Expected share price volatility | - | - |
| Risk free interest rate | - | - |
Historical volatility has been the basis for determining expected share price volatility as it is assumed that this is indicative of future tender, which may not eventuate.
The life of the options is based on the expiry date, which may not eventuate in the future.
Included under equity based payments expense in the income statement relating to share based payment is $Nil (2009: $35,843). This amount included for 2010 $Nil (2009: $13,749) in fully paid ordinary shares and $Nil (2009: $22,094) in options expense.

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SUN BIOMEDICAL LIMITED
Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Sun Biomedical Limited (the company), which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2010, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration for both Sun Biomedical Limited and the Sun Biomedical limited Group (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the financial report
The directors of the company 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 controls 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 Accounting Standards AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply 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 the 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 judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making these 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 purposes 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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
