Letter from the Chairman and Managing Director

Dear Intec Shareholder, 30 September 2015

This is Intec Ltd's (Intec) or the Company('s), fourteenth Annual Report since listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and includes the audited financial statements for the financial year ending 30 June 2015.

For the 2014/15 financial year the Company recorded a loss after tax of \$0.856 million compared to a loss after tax of \$1.261 million for the previous financial year. The current year loss after tax included the payout of an employment contract (\$0.110 million) and expenses related to the Burnie Research Facility (\$0.101 million), which was de-commissioned during the year. Net cash outflows from operating activities increased to \$1.081 million compared with \$0.634 million for the prior year. Net cash outflows increased principally due to the two items previously noted, lower interest receipts and no receipt, as occurred in the prior year, of an R & D tax offset.

Following the successful de-commissioning of the Burnie Research Facility, which was completed at no net cost to the Company, the Company's remaining assets in Tasmania comprise:

  • A 2.5% net smelter royalty over certain mining and exploration leases at and nearby to the former Hellyer Mine; and
  • The Zeehan slag dump.

The Company's principal activity is its 50% ownership in Science Developments Pty Ltd (SciDev). SciDev is a Sydney-based company that develops, manufactures and supplies organic coagulants and flocculants for wastewater treatment and sludge dewatering.

During the 2014/15 financial year, SciDev recorded a loss after tax of \$0.058 million. Notwithstanding the loss, SciDev achieved a number of important objectives during the year and subsequent to year-end, which position it well for strong growth during the current financial year. These include:

  • Diversification of its customer base, for example, into quarrying, water treatment associated with coal-seam gas extraction, metalliferous mining and sales to a major participant in industrial waste treatment;
  • Execution of an exclusive distribution agreement for New Zealand with Apex Environmental Ltd and first sales under the agreement subsequent to year-end;
  • The lodgement of a provisional patent, and subsequent full patent application, after year-end, for the OptiFlox® system; and
  • The fabrication and delivery to site at a large NSW thermal coal mine of the first OptiFlox® system after year-end

The Company expects improved financial performance from SciDev during 2015/16 from further OptiFlox® installations, increased sales into New Zealand and further customer acquisition in Australia.

Yours sincerely

Trevor A Jones Kieran G Rodgers Chairman Managing Director

Review of Operations

Science Developments Pty Ltd (SciDev)

On 26 November 2013, the Company acquired a 50% interest in SciDev for a cash consideration of \$1.300 million. The purchase consideration was based on a multiple of SciDev's average earnings before interest and tax over the prior three years. In addition, the Company holds an option to acquire the remaining 50% of SciDev prior to 31 August 2016, based on an agreed formula related to future profitability.

Sydney-based SciDev was established in 2001 to commercialise technologies developed in the area of organic wastewater treatment chemicals that are applicable across a broad range of industry sectors. Since establishment SciDev has continued to research, develop, manufacture and import a range of coagulants and flocculants for use in wastewater treatment and sludge dewatering principally in the agribusiness and mining industries.

SciDev's products can be categorised into the following three broad groups:

    1. Aqueous cationic coagulants;
    1. Aqueous flocculent concentrates; and
    1. Polyacrylamide powders and emulsions.

These products are supplied to the market through a combination of both local manufacture and imports. SciDev is best known within specific industry sectors by its registered brand names; DairyFlox® and MaxiFlox®.

DairyFlox®

For dairy processing businesses, DairyFlox® coagulant / flocculent range delivers optimum performance in the treatment of wastewater streams at a treatment cost unmatched in the market. DairyFlox® provides cost savings through its unique efficacy across a broad pH range and dewatering capabilities to minimise sludge volumes.

MaxiFlox®

For all businesses other than dairy processors, MaxiFlox® coagulant / flocculent range delivers optimum performance in the treatment of wastewater streams at a treatment cost generally unsustainable by market competitors. MaxiFlox® provides significantly better treatment cost savings to end-users compared with competitor products.

SciDev's coagulants are proprietary formulations developed in-house over an extensive 12 year research and development program. The products are manufactured in SciDev's Sydney plant utilising the company's unique "co-polymerisation" technology. This unique manufacturing process, coupled with low overheads, delivers optimum performance at a treatment cost that is significantly more cost effective than competitor coagulants.

OptiFlox® System

During the year, SciDev completed the development of the OptiFlox® system, including the lodgement of a provisional patent in September 2014 and a full patent application after year-end. The OptiFlox® system was specifically designed to address the issue of very turbid water flowing from a coal tailings' thickener. The system addresses the problem known as 'blackwater' where the clarity of the water from the coal tailings' thickener deteriorates to an unacceptable level resulting in the coal washing plant shutting down and at times, coal production ceasing. The OptiFlox® system continuously measures particle characteristics of the coal tailings slurry in order to maintain optimal flocculation conditions through automatic, real-time control of coagulant dosing. Hence, application of the system acts to minimise losses in production that can result due to stoppages of the coal washing plant, caused by 'blackwater' and enables consistent and reliable clarified water to be produced, for return to the washing plant.

During the year the commercial terms for a six-month trial of the Optiflox® system were agreed with a customer, which include the receipt of licensing fees and revenue from associated coagulant product sales. Subsequent to year-end the first commercial version of the OptiFlox® system was delivered to a large thermal coal mine in NSW, following extensive off-site testing. The initial test site is one of a number of Australian coal mines under the same ownership and it is expected that following a successful trial further roll-outs of the OptiFlox® system will occur at other sites under common ownership.

Dependent upon successful trial results, additional roll-outs of the OptiFlox® system should be expected to take place during the current financial year, both in the coal industry and other industries such as the sewage industry, where the application of the OptiFlox® system is also expected to provide productivity benefits and cost savings.

New Zealand Distributorship

During the year SciDev negotiated a New Zealand distribution agreement for its products with Apex Environmental Ltd (Apex). Apex is a supplier of equipment, project management and engineering solutions for industrial wastewater treatment plants. Apex services participants in the dairy, food, wine and textile industries.

The distribution agreement was executed in August 2015 and first orders have subsequently been received. SciDev's product is currently being used in the commissioning of an upgraded waste water treatment plant at a dairy manufacturing facility in the South Island of New Zealand. It is considered that increasing constraints in New Zealand on the disposal and treatment of waste products from the dairy industry are positive for an expansion of DairyFlox® sales into New Zealand.

Intec International Projects Pty Ltd (IIP)

On 30 September 2014 Intec divested its 50% shareholding in IIP for a consideration of \$50,000. Previously, Intec and IIP had agreed to an extensive cross-licensing and technology transfer in relation to Intec's patent portfolio, for which Intec also received a payment of \$50,000. IIP, under its new ownership, will be a provider of technical and associated services in relation to Intec Process applications. Intec will receive a 5% royalty on fees generated by IIP in relation to Intec Process applications. In addition, Intec retains its rights to its portion of unpaid fees relating to the IRC Project.

In February 2015, Monument Mining Limited (Monument), a company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange announced that it had been granted certain licence rights by IIP in relation to the Intec Process. The terms of a grant of licence rights to Monument by IIP is subject to conformance with the terms of existing licences in relation to the Intec Technology.

In consideration for being granted these rights, Monument will issue to IIP 14 million Monument shares at a deemed price of \$0.25 cents per share for an aggregate issue price of \$C3.5 million. These shares will be held in an escrow account (the "Escrow Shares"). The Escrow Shares will not be released to IIP until the completion and commissioning of the trial commercial plant which demonstrates that the plant is working successfully, and certain other conditions are satisfied. The 5% royalty agreement between the Company and IIP will apply to the Escrow Shares.

Burnie Research Facility

During the year the Burnie Research Facility (the Facility) was de-commissioned following the closure of Automotive Components Limited (ACL) (Receivers and Managers Appointed) (In Liquidation) in June 2014. Over prior years the Facility had profitably treated industrial waste from ACL on a campaign basis.

The costs of the de-commissioning program, including an employee redundancy payment and a 'make good' payment to the buildings landlord were offset by the sale of plant and equipment and the receipt of final ACL treatment fees.

Subsequently, the Company was advised by EPA Tasmania that the decommissioning and remediation of the site of the Facility was completed to a suitable standard. Consequently the Company's site Operating Permit was relinquished and the Company has no contingent liabilities in relation to the former Facility site.

Zeehan Slag Dump

The Company maintains ownership of a Mining Lease (ML) and Retention Licence (RL) over the Zeehan Slag Dump, located 3 kilometres south of Zeehan on the Tasmanian West Coast. The slag dump comprises zincbearing residues from an historic lead smelter previously operated at the site. The annual holding costs of the ML and RL are less than \$15,000 and the financial assurance lodged with the Tasmanian Government amounts to \$11,000.

During the year, the Company has received a number of inquiries regarding possible sale of treatment of the Zeehan Slag Dump and continues to consider its options for realising value from the dump, which are dependent upon movements in the zinc price.

Corporate Governance

The Company's Corporate Governance Statement and ASX Appendix 4G will be released to ASX on the same day as the Annual Report is released. The Company's Corporate Governance Statement and the Company's Corporate Governance Manual can both be found on the Company's website at www.intec.com.au.

  • A Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration;
  • B Details of remuneration;
  • C Service agreements and letters of employment;
  • D Share based compensation;
  • E Shareholdings of directors and key management personnel; and
  • F Additional information.

The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by Section 308 (3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.

A Principles Used To Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration

The objective of the Group's executive reward framework is to ensure that the reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of financial objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms to market best practice for delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:

  • competitiveness and reasonableness;
  • acceptability to shareholders;
  • performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation;
  • transparency; and
  • capital management.

The Group has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive. The framework provides for a mix of fixed pay and also variable pay and includes long term incentives, when appropriate. There is no defined relationship between company performance and remuneration at this point in time. However, the matter is under continual review. The fixed proportion of remuneration is currently 100%. The Board has established a nomination and remuneration committee which provides advice on remuneration and incentive policies and practices and makes specific recommendations on remuneration packages and other terms of employment for the Managing Director, other senior executives and Non-executive Directors. The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of this committee.

Non-executive Directors

Fees and payments to Non-executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the Non–executive Directors. The Board reviews Non-executive Directors' fees and payments annually. Non-executive Directors' fees are determined within an aggregate Non-executive Directors' cash remuneration limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The current limit of \$400,000 was approved by shareholders at the 2007 Annual General Meeting held on 14 November 2007. In addition, Non-executive Directors are able to participate in issues of options pursuant to the Intec Employee Share Scheme. The values of any options granted to Non-executive Directors are not included in the aggregate cash remuneration limit as they are not cash based payments.

Executive pay

The executive pay and reward framework has two components, which together comprise the executive's total remuneration

  • base pay, superannuation and non-monetary benefits; and
  • long term incentives through participation in the Intec Employee Share Scheme.

Base pay

Base pay is structured as a total employment cost package, which may be delivered as a combination of cash and prescribed non-financial benefits at the executive's discretion. Executives are offered a competitive base pay that comprises a fixed component of cash salary and superannuation. Base pay for each senior executive is reviewed annually to ensure the executive's pay is competitive with the market. There is no guaranteed base pay increase included in any executive's contract.

Intec Employee Share Scheme

Information on the Intec Employee Share Scheme is set out in note 31. Participation in the Intec Employee Share Scheme is at the discretion of the Board and there is no guarantee of annual participation by any executive.

B Details of Remuneration

Amounts of remuneration

F Additional Information

In the five years since 1 July 2010, Directors' total remuneration has decreased by an average of 14.15% per annum principally due to a reduction in the number of executive and non-executive Directors.

This concludes the Remuneration Report, which has been audited.

Insurance of officers

The Company has, by Deed of Access, Indemnity and Insurance, paid a premium to insure the Directors and Officers of the Group in respect of certain legal liabilities, including costs and expenses in successfully defending legal proceedings, whilst they remain as Directors and Officers and for seven years thereafter. The insurance contract prohibits the disclosure of the total amount of the premiums and a summary of the nature of the liabilities covered.

Proceedings on behalf of the Company

No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings. No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Company with leave of the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001.

Non audit services

The Group may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the auditor's expertise and experience with the Company and/or the Group are important.

Notes to the Financial Statements 30 June 2015

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Intec Ltd and controlled entities ('Consolidated Group' or 'Group'). The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Intec Ltd, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by amendments made to the Corporations Act 2001 effective from 28 June 2010.

Basis of preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').

Historical cost convention

The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

Critical accounting estimates

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

Going concern statements

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis notwithstanding the operating loss. The Directors consider the Group has adequate funding and therefore, no adjustments have been made to the financial report that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis.

Significant accounting policies

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resultant financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions and other events is reported. The Company has adopted relevant new and revised accounting standards and pronouncements with no material impact to the financial statements.

The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial statements:

(a) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent (Intec Ltd) and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as "noncontrolling interests". The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(b) Business combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained, whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

(c) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision makers. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors.

(d) Revenue and other income recognition

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

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Group and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's activities described below. The amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measurable until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and specifics of each arrangement.

Revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows:

(i) Sales of goods and disposal of assets

Income from sales of goods and disposal of other assets is recognised when the Group has passed control of the goods or other assets to the buyer.

(ii) Interest revenue

Interest revenue is recognised on an accrual basis, taking into account the interest rates applicable to financial assets.

(iii) Consulting services and treatment fees

Revenue from consulting services and treatment fees are recognised using the percentage-of-completion method for fixed-fee arrangements or as the services are provided for time-and-materials arrangements.

(iv) Other income

Other income, which includes government grants and any other forms of government assistance, is recognised on receipt or when reasonable assurance that income will be earned is established.

(v) General

All revenue is stated net of goods and services tax (GST).

(e) Income tax

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

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An

exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

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 or to the extent that they will be offset by deferred income tax liabilities which will reverse in the same periods.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in subsidiaries where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

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

Tax consolidation legislation

Intec Ltd and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the Group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the 'stand-alone taxpayer' approach to allocation. Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity. The Group notified the Australian Taxation Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2008. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the Group contributes to the income tax payable by the Group in proportion to their contribution to the Group's taxable income. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity.

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

For statement of cash flow presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and deposits held at call with financial institutions and term deposits held with financial institutions 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.

(g) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.

(h) Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The methods used to assign costs to inventories are actual invoiced costs.

(i) Fair value measurement

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement and for disclosure purposes.

The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

Fair value measurement

When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principle market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.

Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interest. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified, into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed each reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.

(j) Financial instruments

(i) Recognition and initial measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified "at fair value through profit or loss", in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement

Finance instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost.

Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm's length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense item in profit or loss.

(iii) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Loans and receivables are included in current assets, where they are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

(iv) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

(v) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets, principally equity securities that are either designated as available-for-sale or not classified as any other category. After initial recognition, fair value movements are recognised in other comprehensive income through the available-for-sale reserve in equity. Cumulative gain or loss previously reported in the available-for-sale reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.

(vi) Impairment

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss at this point.

(vii) Financial guarantees

Where material, financial guarantees issued that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due are recognised as a financial liability at fair value on initial recognition.

The guarantee is subsequently measured at the higher of the best estimate of the obligation and the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation in accordance with AASB 118: Revenue. Where the entity gives guarantees in exchange for a fee, revenue is recognised under AASB 118.

The fair value of financial guarantee contracts has been assessed using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach. The probability has been based on:

  • the likelihood of the guaranteed party defaulting in a year period;
  • the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered due to the guaranteed party defaulting; and
  • the maximum loss exposed if the guaranteed party were to default.

(viii) De-recognition

Financial assets are de-recognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expire or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

(k) Plant and equipment

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

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,

only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

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

Office equipment 2-8 years

Plant and equipment 4-7 years

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance date.

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(n)).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of comprehensive income.

(l) Goodwill

Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the sum of:

  • i. the consideration transferred;
  • ii. any non-controlling interest; and
  • iii. the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest;
  • over the acquisition date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.

The amount of goodwill recognised on acquisition of each subsidiary in which the Group holds less than a 100% interest will depend on the method adopted in measuring the non-controlling interest. The Group can elect in most circumstances to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value (full goodwill

method) or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets (proportionate interest method). In such circumstances, the Group determines which method to adopt for each acquisition and this is stated in the respective notes to these financial statements disclosing the business combination.

Under the full goodwill method, the fair value of the non-controlling interests is determined using valuation techniques which make the maximum use of market information where available. Under this method, goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interests is recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

Refer to Note 4 for information on the goodwill policy adopted by the Group for acquisitions.

Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill related to the entity disposed of.

(m) Intangible assets other than Goodwill

Trademarks and IP are recognised at cost of acquisition. They have a finite life and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Trademarks are amortised over their useful lives of 10 years.

(n) Impairment of assets

In respect of non-current assets, each asset or cash generating unit is evaluated every reporting period to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, a formal estimate of recoverable amount is performed and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that carrying amounts exceed recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating group of assets is measured at the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

(i) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.

(ii) Other Assets

Other assets 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 inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffer impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

(o) Trade and other payables

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

(p) Employee benefits

(i) Wages and salaries and annual 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.

(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 in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. 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 and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

(iii) Share based payments

Share based compensation benefits are provided to employees via the Intec Employee Share Scheme. Information relating to the plan is set out in note 31.

The fair value of options granted under the Intec Employee Share Scheme is 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 determined using share option valuation models that take into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date, the 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 is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions, but 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 reporting 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.

Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital and the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital.

(q) Provisions

(i) General

Provisions for legal claims are recognised when:

  • the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events;
  • it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and
  • the amount has been reliably estimated.

Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

(ii) Provisions for close down and restoration and for environmental cleanup costs

Close down and restoration costs include the dismantling and demolition of infrastructure and the removal of residual materials and remediation of disturbed areas. Estimated close down and restoration costs are provided for in the accounting period when the obligation arising from the related disturbances occurs. Provisions for close down and restoration costs do not include any additional obligations which are expected to arise on the basis of a closure plan.

As noted above, the ultimate cost of environmental remediation is uncertain and cost estimates can vary in response to many factors including changes to the relevant legal requirements, the emergence of new restoration techniques or experience. As a result there could be significant adjustments to the provision for close down and restoration and environmental cleanup, which would affect future financial results.

(r) 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.

(s) Earnings per share

(i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit 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 financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the 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.

(t) 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 receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

(u) Foreign currency translation

(i) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured in Australian dollars and the consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Group's functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(v) Leases

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as finance leases (Note 25b). Payments made under finance leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(w) Investments

Non-current investments in subsidiaries are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of non current investments is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these investments.

(x) New Accounting Standards and interpretations

The Group has reviewed all Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been either issued or amended but are not yet mandatory and confirms that none have a material effect on the financial statements of the Group.

2 Financial risk management

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, cash flow and interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. Risk management is carried out by company management and the Board of Directors. Financial risks are identified and evaluated and, where considered necessary, strategies are put in place to investigate and/or minimise such risks.

(a) Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The Group has not entered into any foreign currency hedging contracts during the year. The Group has a trade finance facility utilised for the purchase of US\$ denominated invoices. Purchases through the facility are transacted at the prevailing spot A\$/US\$ exchange rate and the outstanding amount under the facility is always denominated in A\$.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the potential failure of counterparties to meet their obligations under the respective contracts at maturity. The Group has policies in place to ensure that sales of product are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. There is limited credit risk on financial assets of the Group since there is limited exposure to individual customers and the Group's exposure is limited to the amount of cash, short term deposits and receivables which have been recognised in the statement of financial position. Deposits and financial arrangements are held in high rated financial institutions.

(c) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed finance facilities.

The Group's financing activities are managed centrally by maintaining an adequate level of cash and cash equivalents to finance the Group's operations. The Group's surplus funds are also managed centrally by placing them with reputable financial institutions.

The risk implied from the values shown in the following table, reflects a balanced view of cash inflows and outflows. Trade payables and other financial liabilities originate from the financing of assets used in the Group's ongoing operations such as property, plant and equipment and investments in working capital, inventories and trade receivables.

(d) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The Group's interest rate risk arises from borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk.

(e) Fair value

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

  • the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded in active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices; and
  • the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.

The Group considers that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements to be a fair approximation of their fair values, because of the short-term nature of the financial instruments and the expectation that they will be paid in full.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position have been analysed and classified using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.

The fair value hierarchy consists of the following levels:

  • quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);
  • inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2); and
  • inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

(f) Sensitivity Analysis

The impact of changes to interest rate and foreign currency does not have a significant impact on the Group.

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 entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The Group has identified the following critical accounting policies under which significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are made and where actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect financial results or the financial position reported in future periods.

Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets

The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows as set out in note 15.

Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in Australia. Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. 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 or to the extent that they will be offset by deferred income tax liabilities which will reverse in the same periods.

4 Business combination

On 26 November 2013, the Group acquired 50% of the issued capital of Science Developments Pty Ltd ('SciDev'), a company that manufacturers chemicals for use in waste water treatment, for a purchase consideration of \$1,300,100. The acquisition is part of the Group's overall strategy to expand its interests in the treatment of industrial waste. The purchase was satisfied by the payment of \$1,300,100.

5 Discontinued operations

On 30 September 2014 the consolidated entity sold its 50% shareholding in Intec International Projects Pty Limited ('IIP') for consideration of \$50,000 resulting in a gain on sale before income tax of \$48,221. Previously, Intec and IIP had agreed to an extensive cross-licensing and technology transfer in relation to Intec's patent portfolio, for which Intec also received a payment of \$50,000. IIP was not trading up to the date of sale and future losses were projected.

(a) Provision for impairment of receivables

Current trade and other receivables are generally on 30-day terms. A provision for impairment is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual trade or other receivable is impaired. These amounts have been included in the other expenses item.

(b) Credit Risk — trade and other receivables

The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any single entity or any geographical region other than those receivables specifically provided for and mentioned within this note.

The class of assets described as trade and other receivables is considered to be the main source of credit risk related to the Group. The Group does not hold any financial assets with terms that have been renegotiated, which would otherwise be past due or impaired.

The following table details the Group's trade receivables exposed to credit risk with ageing analysis and impairment provided for thereon. Amounts are considered as 'past due' when the debt has not been settled, with the terms and conditions agreed between the Group and the customer or counterparty to the transaction. Receivables that are past due are assessed for impairment by ascertaining solvency of the debtors and are provided for where there are specific circumstances indicating that the debt may not be fully repaid to the Group.

The balances of trade receivables that remain within initial trade terms (as detailed in the table) are considered to be of high credit quality. All other receivables are within trade terms for the years 2015 and 2014.

The recoverable amount of goodwill has been determined by a value-in-use calculation using a discounted cashflow model based on a 5 year projection based on the group's financial budget, and a terminal value multiple. The final 4 of those years are based on an extrapolation of the prepared budget for year 1. Key assumptions in the discounted cashflow model include:

  • a. Post-tax discount rate of 8% per annum;
  • b. Revenue growth of 97% in 2016, 25% in 2017 reducing to 13% in 2018;
  • c. Growth in gross margin of 76% in 2016, 27% in 2017 reducing to 13% in 2018; and
  • d. Average per annum increase in operating expenses of 13%.

The recoverable amount of goodwill calculated as described above exceeded the amount detailed in this note.

Sensitivity to change of assumptions

If the next year's financial budget used in the value in use calculation had been 10% lower than management's estimates at 30 June 2015, the Group would have a recoverable amount in excess of \$140,000 against the carrying amount of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment.

If the post-tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections of this CGU had been 2% higher than management's estimates (10% instead of 8%), the Group would have a recoverable amount in excess of \$195,000 against the carrying amount of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. In 2013, there were no reasonably possible changes in any of the key assumptions that would have caused the carrying amount of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the number of shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll each share is entitled to one vote. Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital.

(d) Options

Information relating to the Intec Employee Share Scheme (the Scheme), including details of options issued, exercised and lapsed during the financial year and options outstanding at the end of the financial year, is set out in Notes 21 and 31.

(e) Capital Management

Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The Group's debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities supported by financial assets. There are no externally imposed capital requirements.

Management effectively manages the Group's capital by assessing the Group's financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.

There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. The quantitative data the Group assesses as capital is \$2,243,129 which is consistent with the net assets of the Group (2014: \$3,051,918).

Employee Share Scheme

At the 2014 Annual General Meeting, shareholders approved the Intec Employee Share Scheme (the Scheme). The Scheme replaced the previous Intec Option Plan, which had been approved at the 2001 Annual General Meeting. All directors, employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the Scheme. Options granted under the Scheme to eligible participants are for no additional consideration. Options are granted for a five year period, and vest and are exercisable immediately, unless otherwise stated. Options granted under the Scheme carry no dividend or voting rights. The granting of options is at the Board's discretion and no individual has a contractual right to receive options.

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

  1. Granted under previous Intec Option Plan.

The assessed fair value at grant date of options granted under the Scheme is allocated equally over the period from grant date to vesting date, and the amount is included in remuneration. Fair values at grant date are independently determined using option valuation models that take into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. There were 5,500,000 employee options granted during the year (year ending 30 June 2014 – nil). The fair value of the options at grant date was \$29,557.

Shares provided on exercise of remuneration options

No ordinary shares (30 June 2014 - Nil) in the Company were provided as a result of the exercise of remuneration options to eligible participants in the Scheme. Accordingly, there were no expenses arising from share based payment transactions recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Intec Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, 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 year's end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors' Responsibility for the Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the company's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of Intec Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's report.

Opinion

In our opinion:

  • (a) the financial report of Intec Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
  • (i) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 30 June 2015 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
  • (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and
  • (b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 5 to 8 of the directors' report for the year ended 30 June 2015. The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Intec Limited for the year ended 30 June 2015 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
