Company Update

1. Operating and financial review

1.1. Nature of Operations Principal Activities

Skin Elements Limited (SKN, the Company, the Group) is a developer, manufacturer, distributor and retailer of its leading proprietary all-natural skincare technology. This technology includes the Soleo Organics natural sunscreen brand, the PapayaActivs therapeutic skincare range, Elizabeth Jane Natural Cosmetics, and the recently developed Invisi-Shield® new generation natural sanitiser range.

1.2. Financial Review

As at 30 June 2020, the Group's cash and cash equivalents increased from 30 June 2019 by $89,837 to $206,075 at 30 June 2020 (2019: $116,238) and had working capital of $355,234 (2019: $102,893 working capital).

Revenue for the year ended 30 June 2020 was recorded at $425,167 as compared with the previous year ended 30 June 2019 which recorded $798,107.

The Group recorded an EBITDA loss of approximately $1,545,869 for 2020 (2019: $1,576,967 loss).

The net tangible assets of the Group have increased from 30 June 2019 by $344,298 to $544,327 at 30 June 2020 (2019: $200,029).

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

1.3. Operations Review

New Product – Invisi Shield® Natural Sanitiser

On the Company becoming aware of the COVID-19 global pandemic in late January 2020 it moved to bring forward a research program on Invisi-Shield®, a new generation of sanitiser.

Skin Elements announced the commencement of production of Invisi Shield® in late April 2020. It is a natural alcohol-free, anti-microbial sanitiser designed to deliver superior protection. With the formulation completed, production underway and launch announced, Invisi Shield® Natural sanitiser is now available through the Company's online store www.sknlife.com.au.

Skin Elements detailed in its announcement on 29 May 2020 that its SE FormulaTM, a plant based active formulation, demonstrated in independent laboratory testing, 99.99% effectiveness against Feline coronavirus, a surrogate of Coronavirus COVID-19. Skin Elements is continuing to investigate the use of the SE FormulaTM in a range of applications for Invisi-Shield Natural, and the regulatory requirements of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in making any product claims. No product claims or TGA registrations have been made.

International Distribution Agreement

In the first half of the financial year, SKN was fully focused on the international distribution agreement with Henan Huatuo Health Management Co, Ltd (HHHM). Due to a number of key terms that could not be delivered, SKN advised on 9 October 2019, that it was not proceeding with the agreement with HHHM.

On 29 November 2019, SKN completed the finalisation of the project through a settlement of the $200,000 convertible note through the issue of the convertible note to third parties on similar terms. During this period SKN was not able to undertake production of its products and sales through its existing distribution channels.

SKNLife Product and Branding Platform Established

Skin Elements completed the strategic re-branding, expansion and refinement across its entire natural skincare and suncare product range. This process resulted in the Company now having a total of 40 therapeutic and cosmetic skin care products in production, including five new products in the flagship Soléo Organics sunscreen range, as well as the PapayaActivs range of therapeutic treatments and every day skincare, and the first five products from the Elizabeth Jane Natural Cosmetics range.

Global Opportunity

Skin Elements continues to maintain its focus on developing sales in global markets including major retail pharmacy and health chains in the United Kingdom, the expansion of its online sales portal, and the support to its distributors in Europe with further initial orders and deposits being received. Skin Elements continues to maintain its focus on developing sales in Australia and global markets.

30 June 2020 ABN 90 608 047 794

Company Update

Funding of Growth Strategies

The Company continually reviews its financial position to ensure that it has sufficient working capital to undertake its growth programs including:

  • Placements issued 40,359,838 ordinary fully paid shares, raising $538,675.
  • Rights Issue issued 100,479,822 ordinary fully paid shares, raising $1,004,798.
  • Pre-production financing facility $10 million pre-factoring financing facility with Custodian Australia Pty Ltd. As at 30 June 2020, $500,000 has been drawn down.
  • Options exercising issued 4,492,881 ordinary fully paid shares, raising $134,786.
  • R&D Rebate anticipating to provide funds in excess of $600,000 in September 2020 quarter.

Manufacturing Underway

Skin Elements has commenced production of Invisi-Shield® Natural sanitiser in June, following delivery of 100,000 bottles and active ingredients for production in the Company's facility in West Perth. The Company has taken delivery of 16,000 tubes of Soleo Organics natural sunscreen with orders placed with Baxter Laboratories for a further 150,000 tubes of Soleo Organics sunscreen. In addition, the Company has taken delivery of 25,000 tubes of PapayaActivs pawpaw based natural skincare, with a further 10,000 tubes of PapayaActivs pawpaw based natural skincare in production.

These products are available through distributors and for sale through the Company's online store www.sknlife.com.au.

1.4. Impact of COVID 19 Coronavirus

The COVID-19 coronavirus global pandemic has caused significant disruption and restrictions to the movement of people and goods throughout the world. During this time, SKN has continued to operate from its West Perth premises and has achieved customer receipts of over $340,000 in the second half of the year, notwithstanding the impact of COVID-19 restrictions that has seen the delay of orders from national and international distributors and the shift to direct online sales through the Company's online store. The Company has also experienced restrictions on travel resulting in reduced ability to meet with distributors and new customers, increased costs and shipment timeframes for national and international freight, and delayed production and the delivery of inventories from its contract manufacturers in Victoria and Queensland. As a result, SKN was not able to scale up additional production and use further production funding under its pre-factoring production finance facility over the period.

1.5. Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies

Likely developments, future prospects and business strategies of the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations have not been included in this report particularly given the early stage of the Company's commercial operations with its new expanded range of natural and organic products. The Directors believe that the inclusion of such information would be likely to be unreasonably prejudicial to the Group.
