REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The Directors are pleased to report that after a challenging financial year, operations have continued to be streamlined and consolidated for future growth and profitability. To this end, there are three (3) areas to focus:

  • food ingredients supplies to the fast food industry

  • sheep collagen and value added by-products from collagen processing to the cosmetics and personal care companies

  • food supplements business

Whilst the company incurred a loss in the financial year just ended, losses have reduced by 12.6% from A$631,812 to A$536,405. As this rate, the company projects further improvement in the business.

Several initiatives have been undertaken to develop technologies and register products which are likely to result in sales activity in the current financial year.

The key activities during the financial year just ended were:

  1. Cost rationalization

  2. The application of micro-management resulted in a reduction in costs with only relevant R&D being funded. The company continues to invest in the future with continued research in collagen and value added by-products.

  3. Development of the collagen business

Three (3) key developments occurred within this area:

  • a) Rationalization of medical and cosmetic business within the operating plant in Collie, Western Australia.

  • After a period of hiatus, the company reactivated the collagen plant and as a result secured a user base in Thailand and supplied 1,000 kilograms of Ovicoll 95. Additional contacts are now being reactivated in South East Asia and North Asia where collagen is a popular part of the traditional food and medical culture.

The company also continues to work with contacts in the United States to supply cosmetic collagen to be further developed into medical collagen.

  • b) Development of nano collagen

  • Working with scientists in the University of Hamdard in India, the company filed the world’s first nano collagen patent and is now able to demonstrate producing “true nano” collagen particles that can cross the human skin. Additional applications include liposome encapsulation and choosing the depth of skin to penetrate. More importantly, clinical trials with ethical committee approval demonstrated that nano collagen can increase skin hydration by three times. The company has initiated moves to create commercial product of this type.

  • c) Development of the “food grade” collagen business The company has successfully completed R&D to develop an all “halal” food grade collagen by using a plant based enzymatic protocol that “digest” the intact collagen from the sheep skins to develop molecules that are the size of 3 kilo Daltons.

  1. Development of the food ingredient business

The main achievement of the last year was the tie with the QSRH group as per the ASX announcement on 7[th] November 2011.

This represents the successful commercialization of a range of patented solutions that are comprised of natural and low cost ingredients. These can easily be added to the food manufacturing process to create healthier outcomes that do not impact the taste as well as the look and feel of the ingredients. The company patented ingredients provide a healthier alternative that does not sacrifice taste.

  • Low Glycemic Index Bread – a patented mix of two common Asian foods in a unique ratio at very low concentrations that reduces the glycemic index of bread and other baked flour based products by 40% without changing the taste, texture and mouth feel.

  • Low Fat Chips – a patented “pre-soak” that causes a 40% reduction in the “fat pull” into the chips during the frying process. The company has repeatedly demonstrated that the chips are crispier, less oily and have lower calorie content.

  • Low Sodium Salt– replaces 40% – 60% of the sodium with potassium via patented natural ingredients that avoids the usual “metallic taste” or “bitter” aftertaste. The ingredient can be used in both aqueous and oil based foods, and is not heat sensitive.

The Benefits – Healthier Foods without Sacrificing Taste:

  • All Natural - There are no synthetic or genetically modified ingredients

  • Proven and Tested - All have been tested and validated at the laboratories of the University of Oxford.

  • Market Ready - All the ingredients are labeled as Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) by the United States Food & Drug Administration and easily sourced

  • A Low Cost Solution - The ingredients are readily available and are used at very low percentages resulting in little impact on the end price.

  • No Compromise in Taste Any changes in taste, texture and feel is imperceptible to consumers in the reformulated foods

  • No Modifications to Processes or Equipment - The ingredients can be easily added to the manufacturing process without need for upgrades or changes to the equipment or processing modifications.

The company is currently collaborating with the University of Western Australia to validate this prior to commercialization of these technologies.

Additional market development efforts are also to engage with a global conglomerate of fast food chains including discussions with two global processed food companies based in the United States.

  1. Development of the supplement business

The supplement business has been a stable constant during the last financial year. The Company has further improved its position in Malaysia and moved into the nearby ASEAN nations including Singapore, Brunei and Philippines. It has also added a new line extension to the product range and the fish oil – PRISTIN – continues to be the Malaysian market leader.

Further initiatives are currently underway to achieve better profit outcomes for this business including approaching trade with a more focused approach.
