Your directors present their report on Anadis Limited for the year ended 30 June 2008.

Directors

The names and details of the Directors of the Company in office during the financial year and until the date of this report are:

Dr Peter Jenkins Arie Nudel Professor Roy Robins-Browne Professor Colin Chapman Appointed 18 June 2008. Simon Sallka Appointed 18 June 2008. Dr Zeil Rosenberg Appointed 18 June 2008. Roman Zwolenski was a director from the beginning of the financial year until his resignation on 18 June 2008. Philip Molyneux was a director from the beginning of the financial year until his resignation on 20 July, 2007.

Principal activities

Anadis Limited is a research-driven biopharmaceutical Company focused on the use of polyclonal antibodies for the treatment and prevention of major diseases.

Anadis Limited also conducted a manufacturing operation in health foods until the sale of that business in February 2008.

Operating results and dividends

The operating loss attributable to members of Anadis Limited for the year ended 30 June 2008 was \$2,858,337 (2007: \$3,281,236).

No dividends were paid or declared during the period.

Review of operations and results

In comparing the losses in respect of the 2007 and 2008 year's we need to allow for some significant items that impacted on the results for each of those years which are summarised as follows:

2008 2007
\$ \$
Loss for year (2,858,337) (3,281,236)
Profit from sale of building - ( 330,396)
Impairment charge in respect of inventories - 868,317
Profit benefit from sale of inventory previously impaired ( 181,789) -
Impairment of receivables 390,000 -
Adjusted loss for the year (2,650,126) (2,743,315)

The 2008 year has been a transitional year in that the contract manufacturing of health products business was sold in February 2008 and under the new management structure, established an international focus with the establishment of an office in New York and the appointment of a Vice President of Business Development.

The Company continued to pursue a comprehensive research and development programme during the year and has continued to be successful in obtaining government grants to assist in its various research and development projects. Income from these grants increased by approximately \$200,000 during the year and has partially funded the increase in external research and development costs incurred during the year.

The focus of the Company is on adding value to its folio of intellectual property through ongoing research either on its own account or in conjunction with partners who have complimentary expertise in our line of research.

The increase of 92% in the level of Travelan sales during the year is very pleasing as there has been considerable expenditure over the past two years in promoting and marketing Travelan as the preferred product for travellers to safeguard against travellers diarrhoea.

The Company discontinued its involvement in the contract manufacturing of functional food products with the sale of that division in February 2008. Note 4 to the accounts, segment information, indicates the level of other income generated from continuing operations and revenues generated from the discontinued operations, being the contract manufacturing business. Within the profit of \$77,427 from discontinued operations in the 2008 numbers, there is a significant charge for the non recovery of receivables amounting to \$390,000. Of that amount, \$375,000 related to one customer who had been placed into Administration. Present indications from the Administrator are that there will be little likelihood of any recovery of that debt.

Significant changes in the state of affairs

In February 2008 the Company sold its contract manufacturing business. Details of that transaction are set out in note 9 to the accounts. Additional capital was raised during the year with the issue of shares and options amounting to \$1,967,737, after allowing \$69,189 for costs associated with the fund raising. Apart from the above matters there were there are no other significant changes to the Company's state of affairs.

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year

There are no significant events which have occurred since 30 June 2008.

Likely developments and expected results of operations

Anadis Limited continues to be principally a research company developing human therapeutics from bovine colostrum. The development of a nutraceuticals business alongside the research programme allows the Company to exploit the research results at an earlier stage than pharmaceutical proof.

Environmental regulation

Remuneration report

The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:

  • A Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
  • B Details of remuneration
  • C Service agreements
  • D Share-based compensation
  • E Addition information

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

Anadis is a research and development company specializing in products derived from bovine colostrum. As such, its funding mainly comes from capital raisings and the receipt of government research and development grants. For part of the current year the company generated cash funds from its contract manufacture business.

Anadis is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX"). It currently incurs losses as its research expenditure exceeds the cash inflow. However, its first product, Travelan, was released to the Australian market in late 2004 and was released internationally in the current financial year.

Shareholder wealth is best measured by reference to success in research activities, and the price quoted on the ASX. Research into major potential products such as Travelan, EV 71 (for the prevention of enterovirus 71), and other general "gut health" items is progressing well. The technology platform is now targeting a number of other high value markets

including, influenza, gastro intestinal, and oral mucositis arising as a result of chemo and radio therapy. Anadis is also working in partnership with the Federal Government Agencies and the Department of Defence, in developing antibodies and delivery devices for the containment, decontamination and identification of bioterrorism agents.

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 framework provides a mix of fixed and variable pay 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. Following approval by the members at the 2007 annual general meeting Directors have the option to take up 50% of their fees in shares in the Company. Directors are also eligible to receive share options when approved by shareholders.

Directors' fees

The current base remuneration was last reviewed with effect from 1 July 2005. 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 8 November 2005, stands at \$350,000 for cash remuneration.

The following fees have been applied following approval by the Board

From 1 July, 2007 to
30 June, 2008.
\$
Base fee
Chairman 60,000
Other non-executive Directors 37,500
Additional fees
Committees – Chairman 5,000
Committees - Member 5,000

Retirement allowances for Directors.

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

Executive pay

The executive pay and reward framework has three components:

  • Base pay and benefits, and
  • Long term incentives which are currently limited to participation in the Anadis Limited Employee Share Option Plan and the Anadis Limited Executive Officer Share Plan (Refer Section D (i) (b)), and
  • Other remuneration such as bonuses and superannuation.

The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration. There are no short term incentive arrangements. Bonuses are at the discretion of the Board acting on the advice of the Chief Executive Officer.

Base pay

Executives are given the opportunity to receive the base emolument in a variety of forms including cash and benefits. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Company. The base pay is set to reflect the market for a comparable role and is reviewed annually to ensure the executive's pay is competitive with the market.

There is no guaranteed base pay increases included in any senior executives' contracts.

Benefits

Executives receive benefits including motor vehicle allowances and expense payment plans.

Retirement benefits

Retirement benefits are delivered by payments to an executive's approved superannuation fund.

(i) Shares.

(a) Employee Share Plan

A Plan under which shares may be issued by the Company to employees for no cash consideration was approved by the Board on 12 December, 2006. All permanent employees (excluding executive directors) who have been continuously employed by the Company for a period of at least one year are eligible to participate in the Plan. Employees may elect not to participate in the Plan.

Under the Plan, eligible employees may be granted up to \$1,000 worth of fully paid ordinary shares in Anadis Limited annually for no cash consideration. The market value of the shares issued under the scheme, measured as the weighted average price at which the Company's shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange during the week leading up to and including the date of grant, is recognised as part of employee benefit costs in the period the shares are granted.

Offers under the Plan are at the discretion of the Company. Shares issued under the scheme may not be sold until the earlier of three years after issue or cessation of employment with the Company. In all other respects the shares rank equally with other fully-paid ordinary shares on issue.

The number of shares issued to participants in the Plan is the offer amount divided by the weighted average price at which the Company's shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange during the week up to and including the date of grant.

During the 2007 financial year 78,750 shares with a total value of \$20,947 were issued to 21 eligible employees. No shares were issued under this plan in the 2008 financial year.

(b) Executive Officer Share Plan

At the 2007 annual general meeting the members agreed to the establishment of the Anadis Limited Executive Officer Share Plan (Plan). The Plan may involve the Company providing financial assistance for the purchase of its own shares in that no eligible employees are required to pay application monies for the shares issued. Shares issued under this Plan are held in the name of a trustee on behalf of the eligible employees. A wholly owned subsidiary company was incorporated on 2 January 2008 for the sole purpose to act as the trustee under the Plan.

A brief summary of the Plan is as follows:

    1. The Plan is available to all senior employees and Directors, both executive and non-executive, of Anadis Limited.
    1. Eligible employees will be offered ordinary shares in the Company to be subscribed for, or acquired by the trustee on behalf of the employee. Shares held by the trustee for employees will be restricted shares in that the shares will not be transferred into the name of the employee until the earlier of, 10 years from date of issue, or the employee terminates their employment with the Company.
    1. The shares issued under the Plan will rank equally with all other ordinary shares in the Company and are entitled to receive dividends and vote at general meetings of members.
    1. No application monies are payable for shares issued under the Plan, unless the Board determine otherwise.

Shares issued under the Plan in the 2008 financial year are set out in note 27 on page 55 of the financial report

(ii) Options.

Options are granted to Directors under the Anadis Executive Share Option Plans No. 1 or No. 2, which were approved by shareholders prior to listing in 1999.

Options are granted to staff, at the discretion of the Board, under the Anadis Limited Employee Share Option Plan which was approved by Directors on 14 May, 2002.

Options are granted under the Plans for no consideration. Options can be granted for up to a five year period with a vesting date set by the Board.

Options granted under the Plans carry no dividend or voting rights.

When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share in Anadis Limited.

All options are issued with an exercise price set considerably in excess of the market price at the time of grant.

The terms and conditions of each grant of options affecting remuneration in this or future reporting periods are as follows:

Grant date Date vested and
exercisable
Expiry date Exercise price Value per option at
grant date
1 October 2007 1 October 2007 30 September 2010 \$0.33 \$0.0266
1 October 2007 1 October 2007 30 September 2010 \$0.43 \$0.0209
1 October 2007 1 April 2008 30 September 2010 \$0.33 \$0.0266
1 October 2007 1 April 2008 30 September 2010 \$0.43 \$0.0209
1 October 2007 1 October 2008 30 September 2010 \$0.33 \$0.0266
1 October 2007 1 October 2008 30 September 2010 \$0.43 \$0.0209

1 October 2007 1 October 2009 30 September 2010 \$0.43 \$0.0209

The assessed fair value of options granted to personnel at their grant date is allocated equally over the period from grant date to vesting date, and the amount for the period from grant date to 30 June 2008 is included in the remuneration table as set out in section B above. Fair values at grant date are independently determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The expected price volatility is based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of the options), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due to publically available information. All options when granted are granted for no consideration.

The model inputs for options granted during the year ended 30 June 2008 included:

Options granted expiring
30 September 2010
(a) exercise price \$0.33 \$0.43
(b) grant date 1 October 2007
(c) expiry date 30 September 2010

(e) expected price volatility of company's shares 75% 75%
(f) expected dividend yield Nil Nil
(g) risk – free interest rate 6.75% 6.75%

E Additional information

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration: relationship between remuneration and Company performance

The full Board will exercise these responsibilities and set the policies for remuneration of key management personnel so as to comply with the Corporation Act, accounting standards and the ASX Listing Rules. Remuneration for key management personnel is determined by reference to market rates to attract qualified individuals essential for the delivery of Anadis' strategy.

Due to the nature of the business the incentive programs are largely based on the achievement of value creating outcomes that could be reasonably expected to enhance shareholder value.

From time to time employees are offered Shares and 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 issue and, for executives, usually have a two year vesting period.

Loans to directors and executives.

No loans have been made to any Director, or any of their related entities, or any executive during the 2008 financial year. (2007 -Nil).

Shares under options

As at the date of this report, there were 9,989,240 unissued shares under option as follows:

The two series of options granted on 1 October 2007 were issued in accordance with the terms of employment agreements with Dr Zeil Rosenberg, Chief Executive Officer and executive Director, and Oren Fuerst, Vice President Business Development. These options vested at various dates, details of which are set out in section B above.

No option holder has any right under the options to participate in any other share issue of the Company.

Insurance of officers

During the financial year, the Company has to insure Directors and officers of the Company. The premium paid is commercially sensitive and so is not disclosed.

The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Company and any other payments arising from liabilities incurred by the officers in connection with such proceedings, other than where such liabilities arise out of conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else or to cause detriment to the Company. It is not possible to apportion the premium between amounts relating to the insurance against legal costs and those relating to other liabilities.

Non-audit services

There were no non-audit services provided during the financial year.

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 except Mr. Nudel. Mr. Nudel is not considered to be independent as he is a director of Paracroft Pty. Ltd, a substantial shareholder in Anadis Limited.

The current Board members are:

The skills, experience and expertise of each Director is set out in the attached Directors 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 fulfil their relevant duties and responsibilities.

Board Committees

The Board has established two committees, Audit & Risk Management 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.

Audit & Risk Management Committee.

The Committee is dedicated to independently:

  • 1 Verifying and safeguarding the integrity of the Company's reporting,
  • 2 Identifying, assessing and monitoring management applications of risk minimisation procedures, and
  • 3 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 behaviour, 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 1 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 transaction within five business days.

ASX Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting.

In addition to the financial review functions of the Audit & Risk Management Committee referred to above, the Board regularly reviews the monthly financial reports. It also requires the Chief Executive Offer and the Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate persons responsible for the management of the Company and financial matters to provide written assurances in respect to the accuracy and compliance of the annual and half yearly published financial statements.

The Audit & Risk Management Committee has its own Charter, four non-executive members (three of whom are independent) and is chaired by an independent member. 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 has proceeded 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. Non audit 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 shareholders 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 Management 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 Management Committee has prepared an annual checklist of risk management and internal control matters which it systematically reviews with senior staff including external consultants. In the absence of an Australian based Chief Executive Officer, the Board has received written statements from key management personal 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.

Qualitative indicators are established for Board members (including their roles on committees) and key executives and their performance will be regularly reviewed against these indicators. This is an ongoing process achieved through the completion of questionnaires and peer assessment.

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 shares and 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 which are set well in advance of the price at which the shares are trading at the time of issue and, 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 2005 at \$350,000 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 relevant 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.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

(a) Basis of preparation

This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issues Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001.

Compliance with IFRSs

Australian Accounting Standards include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Company comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.

Going concern

At 30 June 2008 and 2007, the Company's cash and investments were \$1,090,824 and \$672,643, respectively, and for the year ended 30 June 2008 and 2007, the Company experienced operating losses of \$2,858,337 and \$3,281,236, and operating net cash outflows of \$2,074,470 and \$2,994,655, respectively. These outflows arose from expenses associated with research and development programs and commercialisation initiatives. As a result of the continuing losses and cash outflows from operations the Directors have assessed the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and to pay its debts as and when they fall due.

The Company's ability to fund its operations is dependent upon obtaining income from the commercialisation of its research and development projects, supplemented by the receipt of funds from various grants, and from the raising of additional capital through new sources of financing. Ultimately, the Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon achieving profitable operations through the successful commercialisation of its products and technology.

As a result of the difficulty in predicting the timing and quantum of income from the commercialization of its products and technology, there is significant uncertainty whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

However, the directors are confident that the Company's planned initiatives will be successfully achieved during the next twelve months and provide adequate access to financial resources. The company has had a successful history of obtaining research grants and the Directors are very confident that, along with the ongoing receipts from existing grants, the Company will be successful in obtaining new grants. The directors are also confident of the company's ability to raise further capital if the need arises. The Company has established a three year \$5 million line of credit with Fortrend Small Cap Investors Limited of which \$98,800 has been utilised up to 30 June 2008.That facility provides the company with the ability to draw down cash through the issue of equity. The draw downs can be made at

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(a) Basis of preparation (continued)

monthly intervals but the number of shares that can be issued is restricted by the number of shares on issue, combined with the volume of trading and the prevailing share price. The minimum issue price under this facility is \$0.15 per share.

Accordingly, the Directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. As such, the financial statements do not include any adjustments as to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the entity not continue as a going concern.

(b) Segment reporting

A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different to those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment and is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments.

(c) Foreign currency translation

(i) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ("the functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the rates of exchange ruling at the date of each transaction. At balance date, amounts outstanding in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using 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.

(d) Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

The Company recognises revenue when the amount of the revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the activities as described below. The amount of the revenue is not considered to be reliably measured until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved.

The following specific revenue criteria must be met before revenue is recognised:

  • (i) Sale of Goods and services Significant risks and rewards of ownership of goods has passed to the buyer.
  • (ii) Interest Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method.

(e) Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.

Government grants relating to costs are deferred or accrued such that they are recognised in the income statement over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(f) Income tax

The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable or tax rebate receivable on the current period's taxable income adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax assets band liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

(g) Impairment of assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).

(h) Cash and cash equivalents

For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts.

(i) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy of financial reorganisation and default or delinquency in payment (more than 30 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Cash flows relating to short term receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. The amount of the provision is recognised in the income statement.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(j) Inventories

Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Where appropriate, 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. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(k) Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

- Building Improvements 10-40 years
- Plant & Equipment 3-15 years
- Computers 2-4 years
- Furniture and fittings 5-15 years

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, annually.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 1(g)).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, it is the Company's policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings.

(l) Intangible assets

(i) Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Company's share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired business at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing.

(ii) Research and development

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of obtaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in the income statement as an expense when it is incurred.

Expenditure on development activities, being the application of research findings or other knowledge to a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products or services before the start of commercial production or use, is capitalised if it is probable that the product or service is technically and commercially feasible, will generate probable economic benefits and adequate resources are available to complete development. Other development expenditure is recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred.

(m) Trade and other payables

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.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(n) Employee benefits

(i) Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable.

(ii) Long service leave

The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimate future cash flows.

(iii) Retirement benefit obligations

All employees of the Company are entitled to benefits on retirement from their own individual private superannuation plans.

(iv) Share-based payments

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees through, options granted under the Anadis Executive Share Option Plans No 1 or No. 2. Fully paid ordinary shares may also be issued under the Anadis Executive Officer Share Plan. Options are also granted to employees in accordance with the terms of their employment agreements.

The fair value of options granted under the Anadis Executive Share Plans No 1 or No. 2, or employment agreements, are recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options.

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the nontradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

The fair value of the options granted excludes the impact of any non-market vesting conditions (for example, profitability and sales growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the entity revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. The employee benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate. The impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, is recognised in the income statement with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.

(v) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Company recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after balance sheet date are discounted to present value.

(o) Investments and other financial assets

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company's management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(p) 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.

(q) Earnings per share

(i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the full year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the full year.

(ii) Diluted earnings per share

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.

(r) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST recoverable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authorities is included with other receivable or payables in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flow arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable for, or payable to, the taxation authorities are presented as operating cash flow.

(s) Leases

Leases in which a significant portion of the risk and reward of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases (note 23). Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period the lease.

(t) New accounting standards and interpretations.

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2008 reporting periods. The Company's assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

(i) AASB 8 Operating Segments 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 on financial performance. The information being reported will be based on what the key decision makers use internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to operating segments. The Company has not yet decided when to adopt AASB 8. Application of AASB 8 may result in different segments, segment results and different types of information being reported in the segment note of the financial report. However, at this stage, it is not expected to affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(ii) Revised AASB 123 Borrowing Costs and AASB 2007-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 123 [AASB 1, AASB 101, AASB 107, AASB 111, AASB 116 & AASB 138 and Interpretations 1 & 12]

The revised AASB 123 is applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2009. It has removed the option to expense all borrowing costs and, when adopted, will require the capitalisation of all borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. This revision is not expected to have any material impact on the future results of the Company.

(iii) 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 annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009. It requires the presentation of a statement of comprehensive income and makes changes to the statement of changes in equity, but will not affect any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements. If an entity has made a prior period adjustment or has reclassified items in the financial statements, it will need to disclose a third balance sheet (statement of financial position), this one being as at the beginning of the comparative period. The Company intends to apply the revised standard from 1 July 2009.

Note 2. Financial risk management

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks; market risk (including currency risk and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's overall risk management program focuses on the financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance.

Risk management is carried out by management under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Management identifies and evaluates financial risk. The Board provides guidelines for overall risk management.

(a) Market risk

(i) Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are determined in a currency that is not the Company's functional currency.

The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk, primarily the US dollar, arising from currency exposure. The level of exposure to foreign currency is not material in the overall operations of the Company; however, management will monitor the level of foreign exchange risk and employ hedging strategies if considered appropriate.

(ii) Price risk

The Company is not exposed to commodity price risks in respect of its colostrum requirements as it currently has adequate inventory levels to meet its estimated sales needs for at least the next two years. Management has already taken steps to negotiate contracts for future supplies that will remove any inherent risks associated with significant price movements in colostrum prices.

(iii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The company does not have any borrowings and therefore is not exposed to cash flow interest rate risk. Its main interest rate risk arises from the rate receivable from its cash equivalents. As the Company does not have significant cash equivalents upon which interest is receivable the risk is considered to be immaterial in the overall operations of the Company.

(b) Credit risk

With the sale of the contracting manufacturing business the Company has significantly reduced its credit risk to trade receivables. The major ongoing customers are the large pharmaceutical companies for the Travelan product and

Government bodies for the receipt of R & D grants. The Company has a policy that limits the credit exposure to customers and regularly monitors its credit exposure.

In respect of amounts still due from the sale of the contract manufacturing business, the Company holds a floating charge over the business of the purchaser as security for those debts.

An analysis of the carrying amount of financial assets that is impaired, together with those that are past due but not impaired, are set out in note 11 to the accounts.

(c) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities. The Company regularly manager's liquidity risk by monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. The Company does not have access to any borrowing facilities.

(1) Maturity of financial liabilities

The table below analyses the Company's financial liabilities into the relevant maturity groups based on the remaining period at the reporting date to contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

(d) Fair value estimation

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short term nature.

Note 3. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

(a) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

(i) Inventories

In the 2007 financial year an impairment charge had been made to the income statement for an amount of \$863,317 to reflect the age of the inventories and the level of anticipated sales for the 2008 financial year. The carrying value of inventory held for the Travelan product was reviewed at 30 June, 2008 and no adjustment was required.

Note 4. Segment Information

(a) Description of segments

Business Segment:

During the year the Company operated in two business segments;

  • the conduct of Research & Development activities, and
  • the manufacture of health products which consist of the Travelan products, and the contract manufacture of functional food products.

Potential future income tax benefits attributable to tax losses carried forward have not been brought to account at 30 June, 2008 because the Directors do not believe that it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax assets as probable.

Similarly, future income tax benefits attributable to net temporary differences have not been brought to account, as the Directors do not regard the realisation of such benefits as probable.

The benefit for tax losses and net temporary differences will only be obtained if:

  • (a) the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the losses to be realised;
  • (b) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the tax legislation; and
  • (c) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit from the deductions for the losses.

No staff options were exercised or expired during the 2008 financial year.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at 30 June 2008 was 2.21 years (2007 – 1.13 years)

Fair value of options granted

The assessed fair value at grant date of options issued during the year ended 30 June 2008 is independently determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option.

The model inputs used in placing a value on the options issued during the 2008 financial year are set out in the remuneration report, page 15 in the Directors' report.

(b) Employees share plan.

A Plan under which shares may be issued by the Company to employees for no cash consideration was approved by the Board on 12 December, 2006. All permanent employees (excluding executive directors) who have been continuously employed by the Company for a period of at least one year are eligible to participate in the Plan. Employees may elect not to participate in the Plan.

Under the Plan, eligible employees may be granted up to \$1,000 worth of fully paid ordinary shares in Anadis Limited annually for no cash consideration. The market value of the shares issued under the scheme, measured as the weighted average price, at which the Company's shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange during the week leading up to and including the date of grant, is recognised as part of employee benefit costs in the period the shares are granted. Offers under the Plan are at the discretion of the Company. Shares issued under the scheme may not be sold until the earlier of three years after issue or cessation of employment with the Company. In all other respects the shares rank equally with other fully-paid ordinary shares on issue.

The number of shares issued to participants in the Plan is the offer amount divided by the weighted average price at which the Company's shares are traded on the Australian Stock Exchange during the week up to and including the date of grant.

2008 2007
Shares issued under the Plan Nil 78,750

(c) Executive officer share plan.

At the 2007 annual general meeting the members agreed to the establishment of the Anadis Limited Executive Officer Share Plan (Plan). The Plan may involve the Company providing financial assistance for the purchase of its own shares in that no eligible employees are required to pay application monies for the shares issued. Shares issued under this Plan are held in the name of a trustee on behalf of the eligible employees. A wholly owned subsidiary company, Anadis ESP Pty Ltd, was incorporated on 2 January 2008 for the sole purpose to act as the trustee under the Plan.

Note 27 Share based payments continued

A brief summary of the Plan is as follows:

  • (i) The Plan is available to all senior employees and Directors, both executive and non-executive, of Anadis Limited.
  • (ii) Eligible employees will be offered ordinary shares in the Company to be subscribed for, or acquired by, the trustee on behalf of the employee. Shares held by the trustee for employees will be restricted shares in that the shares will not be transferred into the name of the employee until the earlier of, 10 years from date of issue, or the employee terminates their employment with the Company.
  • (iii) The shares issued under the Plan will rank equally with all other ordinary shares in the Company and are entitled to receive dividends and vote at general meetings of members.
  • (iv) No application monies are payable for shares issued under the Plan, unless the Board determine otherwise.

Shares issued during the year ended 30 June 2008 in the name of the trustee, to be held on behalf of various employees, are as follows:
