ASX ANNOUNCEMENT – HALF-YEAR RESULTS AND BUSINESS UPDATE 31 DECEMBER 2011
Brisbane, Australia - ImpediMed Limited (ASX: IPD) today released final results for the half-year ended 31 December 2011.
“ImpediMed remains focused on building global awareness around lymphoedema. Today this disorder is usually diagnosed and treated under a reactive care model with generally disappointing results as often irreversible changes have occurred. The need for enhanced education and the mainstreaming of prospective care continues to be a major objective for the Company. Through education, earlier clinical assessment and intervention it is possible to potentially prevent or limit progression of lymphoedema,” said Greg Brown, CEO.
The key focus for ImpediMed for 2012 continues to be:
-
Increased awareness of lymphoedema and the need for risk reduction strategies
-
Building coverage through insurers for L-Dex readings and the follow-on treatment
-
Expanding education around the clinical relevance of L-Dex technology and how it is used with conventional techniques
-
Continuing to expand regulatory claims for our L-Dex U400 device
-
Continuing the commercialisation of the new UB500 device for unilateral and bilateral lymphoedema of the arms and legs
-
Supporting independent and critical research into the field of lymphoedema prevention
As we enter the second half of the year, we look forward to continued progress toward our goals. The highlights of the first half of the year include:
-
First and additional covered lives announcements
-
FDA clearance of our L-Dex U400 for aiding in the clinical assessment of unilateral lymphoedema in legs for both men and women
-
Increased U.S. L-Dex U400 revenue
-
Expansion of the Company’s intellectual property portfolio
“Based on the improved understanding around the pathophysiology of lymphoedema and the benefits of measuring extracellular fluid differences, the role of ImpediMed’s L-Dex technology in aiding in the clinical assessment of unilateral lymphoedema is building. The increasing
Page 1 of 2
awareness around the clinical utility of L-Dex readings with medical directors is improving our prospects for reimbursement and coverage from healthcare payers across the U.S.,” said Peggy Brooker, COO and CFO.
Summary of ImpediMed’s half-year ended 31 December 2011:
-
Revenue, excluding finance income, for the half-year ending 31 December 2011 was $1.4 million, a decrease of 28% from $1.9 million revenue generated in prior half-year. The Company continues to build its worldwide L-Dex revenue within the medical business segment.
-
Total comprehensive loss for the half-year was $5.8 million compared to $8.7 million in the prior half-year. This decrease was due to foreign exchange fluctuations and cost savings in salaries and benefits, offset by spending increases in research and development for the UB500, and advertising and promotion.
-
Net cash flows used in operating activities increased to $6.2 million in the half-year compared to $5.9 million for the comparative half-year due to a decrease in receipts from customers and higher payments to suppliers inclusive of goods and services tax. The half-year costs included increased spending on the UB500 program, offset by decreased spending for salaries and benefits due to headcount reduction.
-
L-Dex device placements continue to progress in the U.S. lymphoedema market with 178 devices in the market. The placement of L-Dex devices has been steady in this half-year.
-
Net assets at 31 December 2011 were $15.4 million versus $20.7 million at 30 June 2011, a decrease of 26%. The Company did not raise capital in the first half of the year.
-
The L-Dex business continues to be our focus, and we are dedicated to building insurance reimbursement and coverage for the aiding in the assessment of lymphoedema. This is a critical success requirement to drive future revenues.

Operating and financial review
Group overview
ImpediMed Limited was founded in Australia in 1999, and was listed on the ASX on 24 October 2007.
The ImpediMed Group consists of three entities:
-
ImpediMed Limited, the parent company operating in medical markets in regions outside the U.S., incorporated in 1999 and listed on the ASX on 24 October 2007.
-
ImpediMed Inc, a Delaware corporation operating in medical markets in North America.
-
XiTRON Technologies, Inc, a California corporation operating in medical and power test and measurement markets globally. XiTRON Technologies, Inc was acquired by ImpediMed Limited on 1 October 2007.
Operating results for the period
- Total comprehensive loss for the current period was $5.8 million versus $8.7 million in the comparative prior period. The loss from continuing operations after income tax was $5.9 million versus $8.1 million in the comparative prior period. The loss was reduced due to foreign exchange fluctuations and savings in salaries and benefits, offset by increased expenditure in research and development for the UB500, and advertising and promotion, as explained further below.
The loss from continuing operations after income tax includes the foreign exchange impact arising from translating the U.S. cash held by the Parent into Australian dollars. The spot exchange rate for the beginning and end of the reporting period was AUD $1.00 to USD $1.056 and USD $1.017, respectively. The spot exchange rate for the beginning and end of the comparative period was AUD $1.00 to USD $0.856 and USD $1.016, respectively. Due to these exchange rate fluctuations, the Group incurred an unrealised foreign currency translation gain of $0.5 million in the current period compared to an unrealised foreign currency translation loss of $2.3 million in the prior comparative period, both of which

are included in administrative and governance expenses. The Group maintains a significant portion of available funds in U.S. dollars to match U.S. dollar expenses.
- Sale of goods and services for the current period were $1.4 million versus $1.9 million in the comparative prior period, a decrease of 28%. The decrease in revenue was due primarily to a decrease in revenue from our Body Composition (BC) and Test and Measurement (T&M) products. These are capital purchases for our customers and tend to be impacted by broader market conditions.
The Parent and ImpediMed Inc. are the entities that generate revenue for the Group from Bioimpedence Spectroscopy (BIS) devices used in the measurement of extracellular fluid differences of the limbs. These companies enter into agreements to place the L-Dex U400[®] and the Group’s other BIS devices with customers.
In early 2011, the Group shifted focus in the U.S. lymphoedema market from an L-Dex device operating lease business model to a Purchase Supply Agreement (PSA). A PSA for an L-Dex device is executed and the device is placed with the customer. Under the PSA, the Group maintains a device with the customer as long as the customer purchases L-Dex reading packages (electrode consumables) from the Group on a regular basis as defined by the customer’s patient volume. Revenue is generated from customers purchasing electrode packages in order to perform patient readings using the device.
By 31 December 2011, the Group had 178 L-Dex agreements versus 108 in the comparative prior period. Of the 178 agreements, 96 are PSA agreements and 82 are operating leases. Current lease customers are expected to maintain their device under the operating lease; however, certain customers have renewed their agreements through a new PSA.
There was an increase of 70 L-Dex agreements in the U.S. marketplace from December 2010 to December 2011. The rate of new agreements has been steady with 34 new placement from January through June 2011, and 36 new placements from July through December 2011. Clinicians are currently billing using CPT code 0239T under the American Medical Association Category III current procedural terminology (CPT) code. This CPT code 0239T was available for use by clinicians in billing payers from 1 January 2011.
-
Cost of sales decreased by $0.1 million or 13% from the previous corresponding period. However, it is an increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales; up 8%. The increase was due to higher commissions paid to our L-Dex U.S. sales force.
-
Salaries and benefits expense for the current period was $2.7 million versus $3.1 million in the comparative prior period; a 14% decrease. The decrease is related to decreased headcount in sales and marketing, managed care and corporate support.
-
Research and development expense for the current period was $1.2 million versus $0.7 million in the comparative prior period. The increase in spending was due primarily to the development of our next generation UB500 device. The UB500 device is an important product in our strategy to expand the Group’s bioimpedance spectroscopy technology to include pelvic and other cancer survivors, both male and female. We obtained FDA clearance for our U400 device to aid in the clinical assessment of unilateral lymphoedema in arms of women, and legs for both men and women in November 2011.
-
Administrative and governance expense for the current period was $0.3 million versus $2.9 million in the comparative prior period. The decrease was primarily due to a reversal in unrealised foreign exchange loss of $2.3 million on U.S. dollar assets held by the Group in the prior period to a $0.5 million unrealised gain in the current period.
-
Advertising and promotion expense for the current period was $0.3 million versus $0.1 million in the comparative prior period. The increase was due to increased activities at trade shows, increased focus on clinical validation of our technology and the build-up of our online presence by developing a new website and marketing materials.
-
Other comprehensive income was $0.1 million income versus a loss of $0.6 million in the comparative prior period. The increase was primarily due to the change in foreign exchange rate of the Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar during the current period.

Directors’ Report
Liquidity and capital resources
-
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $12.1 million at 31 December 2011 from $17.9 million at 30 June 2011 due primarily to the net cash used to fund operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities for the period was $6.2 million which reflected an increase from $5.9 million or 5% used in operating activities in the comparative prior period.
-
Cash flow from financing activities was nil, compared to $9.4 million, net of transaction costs, in the comparative prior period, as no capital was raised during the half year ended 31 December 2011.
Rounding of amounts
The amounts contained in this report and in the financial report for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 have been rounded to the nearest thousand (where rounding is applicable and where noted ($000)) under the option available to the Company under ASIC CO 98/100.

Condensed Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011
1 Basis of preparation and accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements of ImpediMed Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on 21 February 2012.
This general purpose condensed financial report for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 has been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001 .
The half-year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report.
It is recommended that the half-year financial report be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2011 and considered together with any public announcements made by the Group during the half-year ended 31 December 2011 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations of the ASX listing rules.
Apart from the changes in accounting policy noted below, the accounting policies and methods of computation are the same as those adopted in the most recent annual financial report.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except where otherwise indicated.
Going concern
The going concern basis of accounting contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities. This report adopts the going concern basis.
The Group has incurred an operating loss after income tax of $5.9 million for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 (31 December 2010: $8.1 million) and net operating cash outflow of $6.2 million for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 (31 December 2010: $5.9 million).
The directors believe that the Group continues to be a going concern and that it will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of signing this report due to the following:
-
(i) The Group believes it will be able to raise additional capital from its shareholders and potential investors should this be necessary.
-
(ii) As at 31 December 2011, the Group had net assets of $15.4 million. At the same date, the market capitalisation of ImpediMed Limited was in excess of $81.0 million and as at 31 December 2011, assets of the Group exceeded liabilities by a ratio of 11 : 1.
-
(iii) The Group had cash at its disposal of $12.1 million at 31 December 2011 and had no borrowings from banks or other financial institutions at 31 December 2011.
-
(iv) The Group has the ability to vary certain expenditures dependent on its capital raising support and therefore cash outflows can be adjusted.
13
Condensed Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011
1 Basis of preparation and accounting policies (continued)
On this basis the directors believe that the going concern basis of presentation is appropriate. No adjustments have been made relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
Changes in accounting policy
The accounting policies and methods of computation are consistent with those of the most recent annual report except the following amending Standards and Interpretations have been adopted in the current period. There was no material impact on the Interim Financial Report as a result of the mandatory new and amended Accounting Standards adopted.

Auditor’s Independent Review Report
To the members of ImpediMed Limited
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of ImpediMed Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2011, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half- year end or from time to time during the half-year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of ImpediMed and the entities it controlled during the half-year, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration, a copy of which is included in the Directors’ Report.
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation
Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of ImpediMed Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
