Chairman's Report

Fellow shareholders.

The 2003/04 year has seen:

  • Continued growth in Anadis manufacturing activities.
  • The launching of our first product, Travelan,
  • On going research success, and,
  • A successful share placement, strengthening our cash position.

The contract manufacturing by the company has continued to expand, with this years growth 20% over the levels achieved in 2002/03. Although Aussie Bodies continues to be our major client, increase has come from overseas sales, with Anadis opening up new markets in Asia.

We successfully obtained Therapeutic Goods Administration licensing for our first product, Travelan - a preventative product against "Travelers" diarrhoea. We expect this product will be available in Victorian based pharmacies by the time you receive this report. Initially, the launch will be limited to Victoria, with expanded promotion to the rest of Australia in the first half of 2005, and overseas to follow there after.

We have achieved excellent results with our Enterovirus 71 research. It has been proved that the methodology developed by Anadis and Taiwan's Development Centre for Biotechnology ("DCB") will provide an effective product for controlling EV71. Our scientific team successfully developed the vaccine, and then the preventative; all this work happening in less than three years. An amazing achievement when compared against traditional drug development pipelines.

In October 2003, we had the successful completion of a clinical trial, at Melbourne's Alfred Hospital, based on our H.pylori program. Those that received the active product experienced significant relief in symptoms and showed a significant reduction in H.pylori infection. We are now at the process of commercializing these technologies into products for sale here and internationally -initially as a nutraceutical for the Asian market.

We continue to develop our bioshielding and anti-terrorism products, having received more Government funding for both these projects.

The strategic alliance between Tatura Milk Industries and Anadis that began in May 2005, was contractually finalised in June 2004. This new agreement ensures that

Anadis has access to a large dairy herd for the collection for colostrum derived antibodies. Importantly, since year end, Tatura Milk Industries became a major shareholder through a placement for just over 10% of the shares. The total placement injected over \$4.25 million into the company and provided security of our cash reserves.

I would like to thank Conor Graham, our CEO, and his hard working team for another year of moving forward. The research committee, headed by Professor Roy Robins-Browne, and the audit committee headed by Dr Peter Jenkins have both been very hardworking. Finally, I thank my fellow directors for their continued wise counsel. We look forward to Anadis delivering more progress in 2005.

P Molyneaux Chairman

CEO's Report

Dear Shareholders.

The 2003/04 financial year was one of great progress and achievement for the company, both scientifically, and as a business, in a difficult industry. Our platform based technologies lead our progress into the future, with research success beginning to become commercial success.

The Scientific team at Anadis, continue to move forward with research into delicate molecule protection (the Bio-Shield project) and immediate respiratory protection technologies. The importance of this research is reflected in the ability for Anadis to continue to win government grants for each of these projects. We have had great success in our ability to attract the grants and funding that we apply for, with four projects being assisted - this is no small achievement.

It is exciting to see, positive outcomes begin to be reflected in the markets valuation of our company. We have had considerable share price increase over the financial year, as the market realizes the potential of our research and that commercialization of our own products, ultimately benefits our shareholders.

With many achievements under our belts, we move forward into this new financial year - with Travelan entering

its distribution and marketing campaign, EV-71 production scale up, H.pylori nutraceuticals for Asia, and of course the anticipation of further research success.

I would like to thank you, the shareholders, for your commitment to the company so far, and expect that your continued support will aid our success, as Anadis delivers on the promise of biotechnology.

C GRAHAM Director.

Anadis Product & Research Portfolio

This past financial year has seen further development of many of our technologies, the birth of some new ideas and, perhaps most exciting, the completion of Anadis' first research based product - Travelan.

Anadis is somewhat unique in that we will have a diverse product portfolio based on platform technologies, and we follow a "pipeline" concept for product development. Anadis has always believed in the benefit of releasing early stage products, such as functional food or "over-the-counter" (OTC) nutraceuticals from our development pipeline to have early commercial success, help cover R&D expenditure, and create shareholder value. Anadis products are derived from platform technology based on the science of bovine colostrum and its application to passive immunity, in which we are a world leader.

The Anadis product portfolio is substantially varied for a company of our size and although some may see this diversity as a drawback, we see it as an opportunity. Our platform technologies have resulted in novel ways to help solve particular health problems and made us attractive to those who require particular health problems to be solved in novel ways.

We here at Anadis are proud to present our diverse product portfolio to shareholders and the rest of the world $-$ at Anadis we are truly 'committed to delivering on the promise of biotechnology'.

Travelan

Travelan is Anadis' first R&D based product to be sold in the marketplace. Travelan is the first clinically proven non-antibiotic preventative for Travellers' Diarrhoea, formulated against its most common cause: Enterotoxigenic E.coli. The response to this product has been quite extraordinary, with interest from pharmacies, travel groups, corporate, airlines and the military.

Over 125,000 packets of Travelan will be produced in the initial production run, with this number set to triple and continue to grow to match the demand.

What is Travellers' Diarrhoea (TD)?

TD, otherwise known as Bali Belly, Montezuma's Revenge, Delhi Belly, Tourist Trot - amongst others; is the number one health problem in international travel in terms of frequency and economic impact. It is most often caused through the ingestion of the bacteria E.coli that is present in the water. This can be through drinking water, or even eating food that has been washed in the local water. The E.coli, once inside the body, attach to the small intestine wall, where they release the toxins that cause the intestine reaction that is TD.

The symptoms of TD can include vomiting, abdominal cramps, fever and diarrhoea. Up until now it was only possible to treat the symptoms, and only in extremely severe cases, antibiotics can be used. In any case, having any symptoms, however mild, can be disconcerting and disruptive, or even ruin an important business trip, or worse still, a well deserved holiday.

TD affects numerous travellers worldwide $-$ up to 40% of the millions of international travellers (estimated up to 600 million cases per year). Over one third of these travellers become ill enough to require medical attention. Travelan works in a novel way to prevent TD - by not allowing the E.coli to attach to the intestine wall. If the E.coli can not attach, they can not release toxins and cause diarrhoea.

How does Travelan Work?

Travelan is packed full of antibodies against the major 13 common strains of E.coli, it is these antibodies that attach themselves to the E.coli and thus prevent the E.coli from causing the body harm. See following diagram

Travelan is made using Bovine Colostrum Powder (BCP). Colostrum is the first milk given by the cow after calving. Because only the first milking is collected and processed for Travelan, the BCP has the highest level of antibodies and other natural anti-microbials.

Our patented method of collecting and processing the raw product ensures a high concentration of antibody molecules and their stability. BCP has three functions:

  • i. Passive immunity: The BCP used in Travelan is harvested from Australian dairy cows that have been immunised with a patented vaccine to produce very high levels of antibodies (specific proteins that bind to the bacteria). These antibodies bind to these E.coli and inhibit their attachment to the gut wall.
  • ii. BCP naturally has high levels of substances that have non-specific anti-microbial properties - including lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase.
  • iii. BCP naturally contains factors that aid in the relief of symptoms of transient gastrointestinal complaints.

Future for Travelan

Commercially. Travelan is now only in its birth stage, with the initial release confined to the Victorian market. Over the coming year, as a result of interest expressed, Anadis will be looking to market Travelan nationally and in a number of overseas destinations in Asia (including China), Europe and the Americas. Travelan is also being evaluated for military use. Travelan has no comparative substitutes and its usefulness is ever increasing in our rapidly changing world, with higher rates of travel, and general health concerns.

Enterovirus 71 (EV-71)

Since November 2002, Anadis has been working with Taiwan's Development Centre for Biotechnology (DCB) to produce a preventative product against Enterovirus 71 - a polio like disease affecting a large number of our Asian neighbours - in particular young children. The EV-71 project combines Anadis' advanced protein production and delivery technologies with Taiwan's knowledge and experience with Enterovirus 71.

This joint venture has been progressing rapidly, with the development being fully funded from Taiwan.

Taiwan's DCB selected Anadis because of the Company's successful Phase Il clinical trials of Travelan, and the platform technology of providing passive immunity transfer for disease treatment and prevention.

Australian and Taiwanese scientists have drawn up a joint development plan to create a product that will be safe and acceptable to children.

As part of the Enterovirus 71 project Anadis has begun working on an effective product to prevent transmission of the virus. The technology will provide a product that will be readily accepted by regulatory authorities, and will act as a 'suit of armour' over an epidemic.

Children will be less likely to contract the disease or be harmed by it.

Anadis scientists are confident that an effective preventative can finish development over the coming months. This represents a fraction of the time required to create a conventional vaccine, which generally takes at least 10 years to develop.

Successful in vivo trials, our prototype vaccines are effective at producing a strong response in vaccinated animals. What is more important, the strong response has been proven to also strongly neutralize the EV-71 virus. We can now move forward to the product manufacturing stage.

Product development has now entered its next phase, as vaccine development is advanced. Several vaccine formulations are to be tested in cattle on our research farm, resulting in a formulation to be scaled-up into commercial animals.

What is EV-71?

Enterovirus 71, a polio like disease, is one of the viruses that causes 'hand, foot and mouth' or 'slapped cheek' disease in young children. Mild symptoms usually include a rash and quieter than normal behavior, while a significant proportion of younger children can develop nervous signs such as fits, paralysis and even death.

A large portion of the children affected by the severe form of the disease can die. (In Taiwan alone over 500 children per year can be affected by the severe form of Enterovirus 71).

According to Taiwanese government figures, since 1998 there have been millions of cases reported with thousands of severe cases and hundreds of deaths. In 1998 alone, more than four and a half million illnesses were caused by the virus including 500 severe neurological cases and 78 deaths. And most of these were children under the age of four.

Enterovirus 71, as yet, isn't well known in Australia, yet in the Asia-Pacific region - mainly Taiwan and China - major outbreaks are becoming increasingly common. Enterovirus 71 is an emerging 'disease state', and medical authorities are comparing the disease with the spread of polio in Europe and North America in the late 19th century. Outbreaks of Enterovirus 71 are mainly confined to Asia but have recently been reported in Europe and Australia.

This year, besides Taiwan, Enterovirus 71 outbreaks have occurred in Vietnam, China and Hong Kong.

Intellectual property

Along with two applicable Anadis patents, both parties will co jointly own any additional intellectual property generated during development. At this stage one additional patent is under development specifically relating to the EV71 work.

Opportunities for Anadis

This agreement is one of major commercial significance to Anadis. Under the terms of the agreement, Anadis receives the exclusive global manufacturing rights of the bioactive materials, and the product, for a minimum of five years; royalties from all sales in Asia; and sole distribution rights for all markets outside Asia. Recently Anadis achieved a joint marketing agreement for sales of the product in Asia - this would further enhance the potential return for Anadis and its shareholders.

The DCB anticipates the market in Taiwan, alone, to be in excess of one hundred and ten million doses per annum. Following an initial launch in Taiwan, Anadis in conjunction with the DCB can then introduce this product into other parts of Asia and the rest of the world.

H.pylori Program - Treatment of gastritis and gastric ulcers (H.pylori)

Since the 2003 Annual Report immense progress has been made on the Pyloran project, with the completion of a Phase II clinical trial in the Alfred Hospital Melbourne. This trial, under the supervision of Professor Frank Dudley, has shown that the Pyloran product, as developed by Anadis, is of significant benefit to patients suffering from gastritis associated with the bacterium, H.pylori, and a good adjunct ulcer therapy.

Based on these results, Anadis hopes to have an over-the-counter Nutraceutical product for gastritis relief, ready for the Asian market during 2005. H. pylori is associated with the development of most duodenal and gastric ulcers and, additionally, some forms of gastric cancer and lymphoma. The World Health Organisation has declared the bacterium H.pylori a Class 1 carcinogen, equivalent in seriousness to tobacco smoke.

Patients participating in this trial were suffering from H.pylori positive nonulcer active dyspepsia with symptoms of nausea, abdominal discomfort/pain and bloating. Those that received the Anadis product showed significant relief in symptoms and a significant reduction in H.pylori infection.

One of the issues with H.pylori is the alarmingly high rate of carriers of the bacteria. Recent research suggests over 30% of people in the western world, and more than 50% in Asia, are carriers of H.pylori. Of these people, a minimum of 20% will develop ulcers or other gastrointestinal symptoms.

Why is Pyloran different?

Conventional treatments exist, but they have their limitations. Inhibitor drugs are typically given for long periods and don't address the infection, while emerging antibiotic resistance is compromising antibiotic therapy. By contrast to conventional treatment, Pyloran offers a highly promising alternative with no risk of antibiotic resistance, minimising adverse impact on a patient's wellbeing.

The Pyloran Research Project

Anadis' intellectual property and experience with H.pylori, passive immunity, vaccine manufacture, protein shielding technology, formulation and manufacturing have inspired funding from AusIndustry. Commonwealth 'START' grants totaling A\$525,203 have been received to assist Anadis in the development of a series of treatments. Work on a candidate vaccine against H.pylori is also in progress.

Continuing product development involves scientists and technicians based at Melbourne University, the Murdoch Children's Research Institute, the Alfred Hospital, Frei University in Rotterdam, Anadis' own facility, and at Tatura Milk Industries. Discussions are in progress with several pharmaceutical companies in the Asia-Pacific region, who are interested in further research and commercial development and distribution of H.pylori products.

Provisional patents are being lodged to protect the technological advances of the H.pylori project.

H.pylori vaccine

Anadis is currently involved in work to develop a candidate vaccine against H.pylori. As mentioned before in regards to Pyloran, H.pylori has been declared a Class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organisation, as serious as tobacco smoke. Initial findings are showing promising results, and research continues. More information will be published as soon as findings and results are available.

BioShield 10

BioShield 10 is a set of patented technologies for the protection of human friendly bacteria (probiotics), vaccines, enzymes, delicate proteins & antibiotics, in the hostile stomach environment.

Anadis' technology for delivering pharmaceutical and other bioactive molecules to the stomach wall and the small intestine is a spin-off from the H.pylori research. As the technology develops, it appears to offer delivery solutions to a wide range of proteins and drugs that are sensitive to digestive acids. These technologies could give new life to many manufacture's products that would otherwise be destroyed in the stomach.

  • Tests conducted by Anadis have demonstrated that 90 per cent of probiotics taken orally are destroyed in the harsh stomach environment within 10 minutes.
  • In contrast, BioShielding techniques protects the problotics to the degree that 90 per cent are still alive after one hour of exposure, thereby allowing greater numbers of problotic bacteria into the intestine to promote positive gut health.

"Probiotics are buman friendly bacteria that can be used to 'crowd out' pathogenic gut bacteria and promote the health of the digestive tract. Currently, they are mainly presented in natural yogurts and fermented drinks."

The AusIndustry grant for A\$250,000 under the Biotech Innovation Fund has facilitated Anadis' research into the effects of bioshielding, and will help take it to a commercial level. The research focuses on demonstrating the ability of bioshielding to protect beneficial bacteria (probiotics) in a range of gut-benefiting foods.

Commercialisation

  • A hurdle shelf life of 30 days for a probiotics has been set by probiotic companies, with emphasis on temperature (non-refrigerated) and dry form delivery.
  • Anadis has a product (BioShield 10 probiotic viable Corn Flakes), kept at room temperature, for well over 24 weeks. The application of this technology is through tasteless and odorless spray on the food, this opens the door for a vast number of "Functional Food" opportunities from probiotic breakfast cereal to probiotic hamburger buns for fast food outlets.

Serious interest in BioShield 10 has been expressed by a number of international probiotic manufactures and negotiations are underway.

Provisional patents have been lodged to protect the technological advances of the Bioshield 10 project.

Anadis has recently been approached by a major American vaccine development institute to help them with delivery of new oral vaccines that have already been developed with support from the Gates Foundation and the World Health Organisation, for use in children in tropical regions. The institute proposes to fully fund pre-clinical and clinical trials of a co-formulation of their vaccines and Anadis Bioshielding technologies. Negotiations are continuing, to make this Anadis technology integral to delivery of cutting edge vaccines against enteric agents.

Bio-Warfare Respiratory Protection --Combating Bioterrorism

In February 2004, Anadis successfully attracted another major research grant from the Commonwealth Government for a total of \$786,500 for the project: "Neutralisation of Respiratory Toxins and Pathogens". This project builds on Anadis technology for temporary protection against respiratory pathogens.

Early work on this technology is already the subject of collaboration between Anadis and the Australian Department of Defence to develop short-term respiratory protection for military personnel and civilian emergency workers, against a range of airborne biological warfare agents - initially Anthrax and Plague.

Prestigious International Support

The extra funding, from the above mentioned grant, will enable Anadis to interact with international researchers and manufacturers. In particular, support and input has been offered from MARCE (the Mid-Atlantic Regional Centre of Excellence in Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases) headquartered in Baltimore, USA. MARCE is a multi-campus organisation that was recently funded by the US government for US\$42 million and has input from 16 prestigious Government, commercial and academic institution from around Washington DC.

The Director of MARCE, Professor Mike Levine has commented on the importance of this US-Australian collaboration, in strengthening the biodefense efforts for both countries. This assistance from MARCE will provide Anadis with expertise in key areas such as: scientific input from some of the world's top medical researchers, access to secure test facilities and field readiness evaluation reports.

Professor Mike Levine, Professor of Medicine and Pediatrics, in addition to being Director of MARCE, is the Director, Center for Vaccine Development, University of Maryland School of Medicine and, amongst others, sits on the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infection Diseases) Blue Ribbon Panel on Bioterrorism Committee.

What is the Respiratory project?

The Respiratory Protection project focuses on the protective actions of antibodies and their ability to bind and coat bacteria within the respiratory tract, thereby reducing the capacity of the pathogen to affect humans. These protective antibodies can be prepared in a large scale utilizing bovine colostrum, a field in which Anadis is a world leader.

In the past, bacteria that cause Plague and Anthrax have proved to be very difficult to vaccinate against or to treat with antibiotics because they survive within immune cells in the lungs. Laboratory trials have since shown the Anadis technology to be highly successful in protecting the lungs against a Yersinia bacterium, a bacterium that is closely related to the species that causes Plague.

Conventional approaches to fight these diseases rely on vaccines that need to be taken months before exposure or treatments given after exposure. Anadis' breakthrough technology has potential to offer immediate protection against airborne virus and bacteria such as Anthrax and the Plague, and improve responsiveness to conventional therapy after exposure.

Integration of the technology into future emergency and medical plans will be assisted by an advisory network, from a joint effort with expertise in Defence and Emergency Management, Public Health and Biotechnology both in Australia and the USA.

Opportunities

The joint research agreement, with MARCE, is based around two key pieces of intellectual property owned by Anadis. The first covers immediate protection against bacteria such as Yersinia pestis (the Plague bacteria), Bacillus anthracis (Anthrax bacteria) and shigatoxin (a bacterial toxin made deadly through delivery by air). The second is Anadis' fast-developing expertise and intellectual property on shielding delicate bioactive proteins in hostile environments (BioShield 10).

The respiratory technology will be supported by production techniques that Anadis has developed for other products. This ensures that mass production of the future products can be accomplished quickly and effectively in Australia.

Importantly, Anadis also views this research as a spring-board for further development opportunities in civilian applications. These applications include the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases such as Asthma and Hayfever.

TACHS-Tatura Anadis Colostrum Harvesting System

Anadis Scientific and Field staff, together with Tatura Milk Industries and its farmers, have developed a revolutionary way to collect and process colostrum, resulting in a higher quality, higher value product.

This innovation, the Tatura Anadis Colostrum Harvesting System (TACHS) has substantially altered the economics of small volume, specialty products collection. For the first time ever, farmers can easily and cost-effectively collect large volumes of top quality colostrum with very little impact on the flow of farm life and the usual dairy process. In fact, farm workload is reduced as are the associated costs, with TACHS offering a number of advantages and economies.

The system allows for separation and selection on an animal by animal basis, with close monitoring of animal health - resulting in excellent quality control. Because only the first milking of colostrum is taken, there is more than enough colostrum left to feed the calves.

The colostrum is "milked" from the cow into the TACHS system, where it is packaged, and then frozen almost immediately. Each cow's product is separate and can be tracked by a unique identifier. An integrated sampling pouch is part of the system, so quality testing can be carried out on a small scale, well before bulking product at the factory. Once frozen the bioactivity of the colostrum remains intact. This is opposed to conventional methods where the colostrum may be sitting for days, before it is frozen, where it begins to decompose.

Colostrum can now be collected from all stages of the calving period, not just at peak calving times. This is particularly important for hyper immune programs where the animals are specially vaccinated. TACHS works well for all farms from small to large, thus allowing us to access TMI's entire supplier base. Transportation by refrigerated van, rather than liquid tanker, is more efficient and cost-effective.

High quality product can be stock piled while frozen and processed as needed, and product not suitable for human consumption can be returned to the farm for calves.

Intellectual property

A series of provisional patents have been lodged to protect TACHS from unlicensed use.

TACHS benefits

Set-up costs are small, and savings in collection and processing costs can be handed back to farmers, providing greater returns and acceptance of the system

  • TACHS has proved to be profitable and efficient.
  • TACHS fits well with animal welfare aims.

TACHS allows Anadis to be clearly differentiated as the premium quality colostrum, as opposed to other high volume colostrum producers, thereby commanding a premium price. TACHS also allows for the strict quality control that is necessary for nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products.

In addition to first milking colostrum, other high value milk fractions can be collected using TACHS.

ANADIS & TATURA MILK INDUSTRIES FORMAL ALLIANCE

The alliance between Anadis and Tatura Milk Industries (TMI) began in May 2003 under a heads of agreement, and has now grown into a contractual arrangement for the mutual benefit of both organizations. This new agreement ensures that

Jeff Martin CEO Tatura & Conor Grabam CEO Anadis

Anadis has access to a large dairy herd for the collection of colostrum derived antibodies, and the facilities required for the manufacture of Travelan and other Anadis products.

Under the Agreement Anadis has:

"Right of First Call" over all colostrum that TMI collects. This ensures that as more Hyper-immune Colostrum (Colostrum from cows that have been immunized with Anadis'

patented vaccines) is required, the supply base will be available for this production.

  • $\bullet$ Access to large scale production facilities at TMI, particularly large scale micro-filtration and freeze-drying capacity for the processing of large quantities of antibodies.
  • $\bullet$ Become a party to the "Anadis - Tatura Innovation Engine Room (ATIER)", a research committee to co-develop new products for Australia and overseas. In particular the group will be focused on Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals.

This agreement represents a major milestone for the commercialization of Anadis products, which has already commenced with the collection and manufacture of Travelan.

Anadis has been successfully working in conjunction with TMI for a number of years and is very pleased to finally have a contractual agreement that ensures a continuity of success. The TACHS systems is an example of the success of this alliance.

About TMI

TMI is a co-operative dairy company based in the Goulburn Valley in Victoria, which processes about half a billion litres of milk each year, from more than 450 regional dairy farms, into value added dairy products, including cream cheese, infant formula, specialized powders, and dairy proteins and bio-actives. These are sold locally as well as exported overseas, mainly to Asia.

The TMI herd is made up from the member dairy farms, each with an average of over 200 cows. TMI historically has a record of the highest payment to farmers for their milk and has been able to maintain this record by being at the forefront of innovative dairy product manufacture.

ANADIS MANUFACTURING

Once again the Manufacturing division at Anadis has had an impressive year. Production has increased substantially, facilities have received significant upgrades, and we have been awarded new accreditations for quality and manufacture.

In the first six months of the 2003-04 financial year, production revenue rose by 27%, and the entire year production revenue was up 20.3%. Throughput has

Top. Main blending machine Boltom. Packing room

increased with our first order to China dispatched in early June.

The production facility delivers the best in blending and packaging solutions, under the tightest deadlines, with efficient management of products, from concept to retail shelf. We are able to offer a true premium service to our customers.

Our strategic arrangement with Tatura Milk Industries, further strengthens our business reputation and provides a diverse platform from which to provide premium services to our clients. Together with our customers, our creative and scientific teams share and develop ideas in order to achieve products and goals that could not have been done alone.

The facilities have been upgraded to meet the increase in demand with the installation of a new small blending room, new packaging areas, and a new storage system to handle the increased loads.

Anadis has established strong links with major manufacturing, trading organisations and government bodies. Anadis is also pleased to announce that we have now officially received HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) registration under the internationally recognized CODEX

standard. The manufacturing facility has been HACCP compliant for some time under state and federal government requirements. HACCP recognizes and addresses all issues of food production relating to Quality, Risk Assessment and Control, as well as Food Safety for local and overseas markets.

In addition, GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) certification was achieved; thus providing Anadis with a respectable assemblage of credibility and accountability systems.

Anadis Manufacturing now complies with the following national and international standards:

AQIS standard for Dairy product and processed food exports Anadis is registered to produce, store and export dairy products and processed organic foods from Australia, subject to legislative guidelines

European accreditation

Anadis is eligible to export Australian dairy products to the EU, and is listed as an approved company to produce and handle dairy products on behalf of potential independent exporters

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point standard (HACCP) This is an internationally recognized system, which is becoming the world standard for ensuring safety and quality in the manufacture of food and nutraceuticals

Principles of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)

This endorses that Anadis products are manufactured in clean conditions and free of contaminants.

Freeze drying services add value to health & food industry

Contract freeze drying caters to boutique requirements for valueadded products and allows for pilot scale assessment for other research and development organizations. Anadis has assisted in R&D programs involved in the freeze drying of active materials from a variety of sources for later extraction. This has been particularly focused at cancer research. Upon completion of their research and development, Anadis is then in a position to gain commercial scale manufacturing rights from these customers.

Growing international market for colostrum products

Development of TACHS will allow Anadis, in conjunction with TMI, to capitalise on the fast growing international interest for colostrum and colostrum-based products. The Anadis management team has established strategic alliances with complementary therapies, sports food, infant formula and female health companies, in Taiwan, Japan, China and Korea, with a view to becoming a preeminent supplier. Anadis researchers continue to develop new products that incorporate natural extracts, particularly within the fast growing market for health promoting foods.

Looking forward

The 2004/05 financial year will see Anadis continuously increasing its manufacturing customer base, with diverse and exciting products as well as continuing to provide first class services to our existing customers, working together to help them expand their businesses.

Remuneration report

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors, the chief executive officer and the executive team. The Board assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit. from retention of a high quality Board and executive team. The chief executive officer and members of the senior management team have employment contracts, details of which are set out in 'Notes to the Financial Statements' - Note 28.

The framework provides a mix of fixed and variable pay and a blend of short and long-term incentives.

Non-executive directors

Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. Non-executive directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Chairman's fees are determined independently to the fees of non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market. Directors do receive share options when approved by shareholders.

Directors' fees

The current base remuneration was last reviewed with effect from 1 July 2003. The Chairman's remuneration is inclusive of committee fees while additional fees are also paid to non-executive directors. for their membership of Board committees. Bonuses are not paid.

Non-executive directors fees are determined within an aggregate directors' fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The pool, which was last varied by shareholders on 11 November, 2003, stands at \$250,000 for cash remuneration.

Retirement allowances for directors.

Non-executive directors retirement payments are limited to compulsory employer superannuation.

Executive pay

Executives are given the opportunity to receive the base emolument in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles and expense payment plans. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Company.

Details of remuneration

Details of the nature and amount of each element of the emolument of each director of the Company and each of the additional officers of the Company receiving the highest emoluments for the year ended 30 June, 2004 are set out in the following tables.

Corporate Governance

The Board of Anadis Limited is accountable to the shareholders and other stakeholders for the performance of the Company. To this end, the Board is committed to maintaining the highest ethical standards and best practice in the area of corporate governance to ensure that the Company's business is conducted in the best interests of all concerned.

The Company has prepared and implemented practices that address all the Principles set out by the ASX Corporate Governance Council. These practices will be reviewed regularly to ensure their relevance and application to the Company's responsibilities and activities.

By adopting these Principles, the Board seeks to create value and provide accountability commensurate with the risks involved.

ASX Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight.

Role of the Board,

The primary role of the Board is to provide effective governance over the Company's affairs to ensure the interests of the shareholders are protected and the confidence of the investing market is maintained. whilst having regard for the interests of all the stakeholders.

This role is exercised by the Board, as whole, and each director exercising diligent attention to the affairs of the Company, in particular the Board is responsible for:

    1. Setting the Company's values and standards of conduct and ensuring that these are adhered to,
    1. Providing strategic direction and approving corporate strategic initiatives,
    1. Oversight of the Company, including its control and accountability systems,
    1. Appointing and removing the chief executive officer,
    1. Reviewing and ratifying systems of risk management and internal compliance and controls, codes of conduct and legal compliance,
    1. Monitoring senior management performance and ensuring appropriate resources are available,
    1. Approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management and acquisitions and divestitures, and
    1. Approving and monitoring financial and other reporting to shareholders and regulatory authorities.

To ensure that all new Board members understand what is expected of them, in addition to their obligations under the Corporation Law, the Company provides them with a letter setting out the key terms and conditions relating to their appointment.

Role of Management,

Through the chief executive officer, management is responsible to the Board for the:

    1. Development and implementation of agreed corporate strategy and performance objectives,
    1. Undertaking the day to day activities of the Company,
    1. Identifying all matters to be included in a risk profile of the Company and ensuring that effective risk management systems are implemented and adhered to,
    1. Observing the code of conduct, and
    1. Ensuring that the Board is fully informed of all matters which may have a material impact on the ability of the Company to meet its obligations.

ASX Principle 2: Structure the Board to add value.

Board Composition.

The Board determines its size and composition, subject to the limits imposed by the Company's Constitution, which requires a minimum of three and a maximum of ten. Currently there are five (5) directors.

The Company will at all times bear in mind the need to have a majority of independent directors. An independent director is independent of management and free of any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment.

Notwithstanding this, the Board recognises that in a small, specialised industry such as biotechnology, it is very desirable that board members have some industry background and therefore may not be completely independent.

Currently all non-executive directors, including the Chairman, are considered to be independent.

In particular, the Board has considered the independence of Professor Roy Robins-Browne and Mr. Roman Zwołenski.

Much of the Company's research work is done at the University of Melbourne in departments managed by Professor Robins-Browne. The work was initially won on a competitive basis and no personal benefit is earned by Professor Robins-Browne as a consequence of this work, in fact, the Company believes it benefits from the oversight of research consequent upon Professor Robins-Browne's supervision.

A company, in which Mr. Zwofenski is both a director and shareholder, provided some consulting advice to the Company in early 2002. There has been no consulting advice provided for over two years by either Mr. Zwolenski or the firm with which he is associated. The Board reviewed the Company's past association and conduded that the relationship does not affect Mr. Zwolenski's independence.

The skills, experience and expertise of each director is set in the Directors Report in the annual report.

The Board collectively and each director individually may take, at the expense of the Company, such independent professional advice as is considered necessary to fulfill their relevant duties and responsibilities.

Board Committees

The Board has established two committees, Audit & Risk and Science, to assist in the execution of its duties and to allow detailed consideration of complex issues.

The Company does not have a separate nomination committee or a remuneration committee as these tasks are carried out by the full Board.The Board believes that, at this stage of the Company's development, these functions are best handled by the full Board. The Board will establish other committees, either permanent or ad hoc, as required by the Company's future development. In addition and for the reasons mentioned, the Board does not currently have a formal policy on selecting new directors.

38

Audit & Risk Management Committee.

The Committee is dedicated to independently:

    1. Verifying and safeguarding the integrity of the company's reporting,
    1. Identifying assessing and monitoring management applications of risk minimisation procedures, and
    1. Informing the Board of material changes to the Company's risk profile.

The Board has given the Committee all the necessary powers to carry out the above.

Science Committee.

The primary objective of the Committee is to provide technical support to management in the conduct of the Company's research programs and to critically review the research findings.

This is achieved by undertaking regular meetings with management and providing access to a wide range of scientific knowledge including a number of technical advisors retained by the Company.

ASX Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision- making.

The Company has adopted the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council guidelines on ethical research practices.

Code of Conduct.

Anadis is guided in all its activities by respect for all its stakeholders including employees, shareholders, contractors, customers and suppliers.

The Board has articulated the Company's requirements for standards of conduct, from directors and senior management, based on the following principles;

    1. Directors are subject to re-election every three years,
    1. The Chairman must be independent,
    1. Conflict of interest must be avoided wherever possible. If, for any reason, a potential conflict arises, the director/employee must declare the conflict and absent themselves from all discussions and decisions. on the relevant matter.
    1. Employees and directors must respect the confidentiality of the Company's assets, including intellectual property, both during and after employment,
    1. The Company will comply with all relevant legislation and regulation,
    1. The Company will deal fairly with all its stakeholders, and
    1. The Company will promote a culture of ethical behavior, encouraging openness amongst employees, directors and contractors.

Trading in Company Securities

The Company's policy is that there be no dealings in the Company's securities, whether in permitted periods or at any other time:

    1. When a designated officer is in possession of inside information, or
    1. Where the dealing is for short-term or speculative gain, or
    1. Within a period that is 72 hours prior to and 48 hours after any announcement.

Apart from these restrictions a designated officer can, unless there are special circumstances, only deal in the Company's securities in the following periods:

  • Within the period commencing 48 hours after the announcement of the half year and full year financial results respectively and ending I month after each of those announcements.
  • Within the period commencing 48 hours after the dispatch of the annual report made to shareholders through to one month after the annual general meeting.

Each director has entered into an agreement with the Company to provide information to allow the Company to notify the ASX of any share transactions within five business days

ASX Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting.

In addition to the financial review functions of the Audit & Risk Committee referred to above, the Board regularly reviews the monthly financial reports. It also requires the Chief Executive Officer to provide written assurances in respect to the accuracy and compliance of the annual and haff yearly published financial statements. Due to the size of the Company, there is not a separate role for a Chief Financial Officer and, as a result, the Chief Executive Officer fills that role.

The Audit &Risk Committee has its own Charter, three non-executive members (all of whom are independent) and is chaired by an independent member who is not the chairman of the Board. Details of the number of meetings are set out in the Directors Report in the annual report.

The auditor provides a certificate to the Company confirming their independence. Rotation of the auditor will proceed as required by Law or Regulation. The Company currently has no intention of replacing the existing auditors, however should this arise it will made a selection following a competitive process. Nonaudit work is arranged based on cost and the needs of the Company

ASX Principle 5: Making timely and balanced disclosure.

As a company whose shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX), Anadis is very conscious. that it has an obligation to ensure that the market is both fully and accurately informed about material matters by timely and balanced disclosure.

The information disclosed will be factual and presented in a clear and balanced way. The Company has prepared and issued to all senior staff a written policy document on this matter and requires strict adherence to this policy. Continuous disclosure is a standard agenda item at all Board meetings.

ASX Principle 6: Respect the rights of shareholders.

The Company is committed to respecting the rights of sharehofders and facilitating the effective exercise of those rights.

This is achieved by:

    1. Effective and regular communications including a regular newsletter and modern up to date website.
    1. Providing access to timely, balanced and understandable information about the Company and its current and future direction, and
    1. Facilitating easy participation at general meetings.

The Company's external auditor attends each general meeting and is available to answer any questions. with regard to the conduct of the audit and their report.

ASX Principle 7: Recognise and managing risk.

In addition to the risk review functions of the Audit & Risk Committee referred to above, the Board receives regular written reports from the Science Committee and the Chief Executive Officer covering all matters within their respective portfolios.

As part of its Charter, the Audit & Risk Committee has prepared an annual checklist of risk management. and internal control matters which it systematically reviews with senior staff including external consultants. The Chief Executive Officer also provides a written statement that the control systems are operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects.

In addition to the usual business risks, the particular risks associated with the Company's activities are:

    1. long lead times and high costs associated with biotech R&D,
    1. the low success rate of biotech research in Australia,
    1. stringent health regulations which are subject to regular change,
    1. the high level of funding required over a long period of time, and
    1. securing intellectual property.

ASX Principle 8: Encourage enhanced performance.

To ensure that the directors and key executives are equipped to develop the Company, the directors are committed to fairly review and actively encourage enhanced board and management effectiveness. This will be achieved by informing, training, and evaluating individual and collective performance regularly. and fairly.

Measurable and qualitative indicators will be established for board members (including their roles on committees) and key executives and performance will be regularly reviewed against these indicators. This process will be applied during the next financial year.

ASX Principle 9: Remunerate fairly and responsibly.

The Board notes the Corporate Governance Council recognises that, for small companies, the efficiencies expected to flow from a formal committee structure may not be apparent. The Board agrees with this view.

The full Board will exercise these responsibilities and set the policies for remuneration of directors and senior managers so as to comply with the Corporation Act, accounting standards and the ASX Listing Rules. Remuneration for executive directors and staff is determined by reference to market rates. From time to time employees are offered Options under plans previously agreed by shareholders. In a company at this stage of its development, the only meaningful performance target is the share price and the exercise price for such options are set well in advance of where the shares are trading at the time of issueand, for executives, usually have a two year vesting period.

As the number of options on issue at anyone time is low and the price and exercise periods differ, the Board considers that the exercise of such options will have little or no effect on the Company's share price or Earnings Per Share.

in setting remuneration for non-executive directors, the Board will use the following principles;

    1. Non-executive directors shall be paid fees and superannuation plus supplements for committee work. within the aggregate amount set by shareholders in general meeting (last set in 2003 at \$250,000 for cash remuneration),
    1. Non-executive directors participate in options arrangements subject to shareholder approval. The Board does not accept that options should not be given to non-executive directors as it believes (and shareholders have previously agreed) that in an R&D company their particular expertise is vital to the team effort and therefore options are a valid incentive,
    1. Non-executive directors retirement payments are limited to compulsory employer superannuation, and
    1. Bonuses will not be paid to non-executive directors.

Details of remuneration paid to directors and senior staff is set out in the Directors Report in the annual report.

ASX Principle 10: Recognise the legitimate interests of stakeholders.

The Board is committed to delivering maximum share value to the shareholders while maintaining high standards of customer service and employment, in addition, the Company aims to achieve full compliance with refevant legislation and contribute to the wider community and therefore all stakeholders.

This will be achieved by the application of the principles set out in this Corporate Governance Statement.

Statement of Cash Flows for the year ending 30 June 2004

The above statement of cash flows should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of Accounting

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views and the Corporations Act 2001.

It is prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain assets which, as noted, are at valuation. Unless otherwise stated, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous year.

(b) Foreign Currency Translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to Australian dollars at the rates of exchange ruling at the date of each transaction. At balance date, amounts outstanding in foreign currencies are converted to Australian dollars at the rate of exchange ruling at the end of the financial year. All gains and losses are brought to account in determining the profit or loss for the year.

(c) Cash

For the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks, money market investments, bank term deposits readily convertible to cash, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

(d) Inventories

Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overheads expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity.

(e) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at the lower of cost and recoverable amount.

Depreciation on plant and equipment is calculated on a diminishing value basis to write off the net cost or revalued amount of each item of plant and equipment (excluding land) over its expected useful life to the Company. Depreciation on buildings is calculated on a straight line basis to write off the net cost or revaiued amount of the property (excluding iand) over its expected useful life to the Company.

Estimates of remaining useful lives are made on a regular basis for all assets, with annual reassessments for major items. Profits and losses on disposals of plant and equipment are taken into account in determining the result for the period.

The expected useful lives are as follows:

Buildings 50 years
Building Improvements 10 -- 40 years
Plant & Equipment 5 - i5 years
Computers $2 - 3$ years
Furniture and Fittings $5 - 15$ years

(f) Intangible assets

Goodwill

Where a Company or operation is acquired, the identifiable net assets acquired are measured at fair value.The excess of the fair value of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, including any fiability for restructuring costs, is brought to account as goodwill and amortised on a straight line basis over 20 years, being the period during which the benefits are expected to arise.

(g) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific revenue criteria must be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of Goods - Controf of the goods has passed to the buyer.

interest » When the right to receive consideration for the investment has been attained.

Grant revenue - recognised on reaching milestones within the relevant project's timetable.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(h) Employee Benefits

The amounts expected to be paid to employees for their pro-rata entitlements to long service and annual leave are accrued annually on the basis of statutory and contractual requirements. The contributions made to superannuation funds are charged against the profit and loss account.

(i) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the operating profit or loss after income tax attributable to members of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(j) Income Tax

Tax effect accounting procedures are followed whereby the income tax expense in the statement of financial performance is matched with the accounting profit after allowing for permanent differences. The future tax benefit relating to tax losses is not carried forward as an asset unless the benefit is virtually certain of realisation.

Income tax on cumulative timing differences is set aside to the deferred income tax or future income tax benefit accounts at the rates which are expected to apply when those timing differences reverse.

(k) Research & Development

Costs incurred on research and development projects are deferred to future periods to the extent they are expected beyond any reasonable doubt to be recoverable.

Directors' and Executive Remuneration (I)

Equity-based compensation benefits

Equity-based compensation benefits are provided to Directors and Executives via the Anadis Executive Share Option Plan No.1.

No accounting entries are made in relation to the Anadis Executive Share Option Plan No.1 until options. are exercised, at which time the amounts receivable from employees are recognised in the statement of financial position as share capital In accordance with AASB 1046 Director and Executive Disclosures by Disclosing Entities, the amounts disclosed for remuneration of directors and executives in note 28 include the assessed fair values of options at the date they were granted.

(m) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

(n) Receivables

All trade debtors are recognised at the amounts receivable as they are due for settlement no more than 45 days from the date of recognition.

Collectibility of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to collection exists.

(o) Trade and other creditors

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the entity prior to the end of the $\,$ financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

(p) Maintenance and repairs

Routine operating maintenance, repair and minor renewal costs are also charged as expenses as incurred.

(q) Recoverable amount of non-current assets

The recoverable amount of an asset is the net amount expected to be recovered through the cash inflows and outflows arising from its continued use and subsequent disposal.

46

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Where the carrying amount of a non-current asset is greater than its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount. Where net cash inflows are derived from a group of assets working together, recoverable amount is determined on the basis of the relevant group of assets. The decrement in the carrying amount is recognised as an expense in net profit or loss in the reporting period in which the recoverable amount write-down occurs.

(r) International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

The Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) is adopting (FRS for application to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005. The AASB has issued Australian equivalents to IFRS, and the Urgent-Issues Group will issue abstracts corresponding to IASB interpretations originated by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee or the former Standing Interpretations Committee. The adoption of Australian equivalents to IFRS will be first reflected in the company's financial statements for the half-year ending 31 December 2005 and the year ending 30 June 2006.

Entities complying with Australian equivalents to IFRS for the farst time will be required to restate their comparative financial statements to amounts reflecting the application of IFRS to that comparative period. Most adjustments required on transition to IFRS will be made, retrospectively, against opening retained eamings as at 1 July 2004.

The Company Secretary has recently attended an IFRS implementation workshop run by the company's auditors to assess the financial reporting implications of the above standards and a transition plan is currently being prepared for the consideration of the Audit & Risk Committee to ensure the timely implementation of the new standards.

Major changes identified to date that will be required to the company's existing accounting policies include the following:

Intangible assets -- goodwill

Under the Australian equivalent to IFRS 3 Business Combinations, amortisation of goodwill will be prohibited, and will be replaced by annual impairment testing focusing on the cash flows of the related cash generating unit.

This will result in a change to the current accounting policy, under which goodwill is amortised. on a straight line basis over the period during which the benefits are expected to arise and not exceeding 20 years.

2 Equity-based compensation benefits.

Under the Australian equivalent to IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, equity-based compensation to employees will be recognised as an expense in respect of the services received. This will result in a change to the current accounting policy, under which no expense is recognised for equity based compensation.

Remuneration of directors and executives

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors, the chief executive officer and the executive team. The Board assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from retention of a high quality Board and executive team. The chief executive officer and members of the senior management team have employment contracts.

The framework provides a mix of fixed and variable pay and a blend of short and long-term incentives.

Non-executive directors

Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. Non-executive directors' fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Chairman's fees are determined independently to the fees of non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market. Directors do receive share options when approved by shareholders.

Directors' fees

The current base remuneration was last reviewed with effect from 3 July, 2003.The Chairman's remuneration is inclusive of committee fees while additional fees are also paid to non-executive directors for their membership of Board committees. Bonuses are not paid.

Non-executive directors fees are determined within an aggregate directors' fee pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The pool, which was last varied by shareholders on 11 November, 2003, stands at \$250,000 for cash remuneration.

Independent audit report to the members of Anadis Limited

Audit Opinion

In our opinion, the financial report of Anadis Limited:

  • gives a true and fair view, as required by the Corporations Act 2001 in Australia, of the financial position of Anadis Limited as at 30 June 2004, and of its performance for the year ended on that date and
  • is presented in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

This opinion must be read in conjunction with the rest of our audit report.

Scope

The financial report and directors' responsibility

The financial report comprises the statement of financial position, statement of financial performance, statement of cash flows, accompanying notes to the financial statements, and the directors' declaration for Anadis Limited (the company), for the year ended 30 june 2004.

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and true and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Corporations Act 200 i. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report.

Audit approach

We conducted an independent audit in order to express an opinion to the members of the company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherentlimitations of internal control, and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.

We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2004, Accounting Standards and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the company's financial position, and its performance as represented by the results of its operations and cash flows.

We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included:

  • examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial report, and
  • assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors.

When this audit report is included in an Annual Report, our procedures include reading the other information in the Annual Report to determine whether it contains any material inconsistencies with the financial report.

While we considered the effectiveness of management's internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.

Our audit did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by directors or management.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we followed applicable independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2004.
