5.2. Operations Review

5.2.1. Development of SE Formula[TM]

The SE Formula[TM] has been developed by Skin Elements over the last 15 years and is the core of every natural product developed by Skin Elements. Products with the SE Formula[TM] have scientifically proven as high performance while using only natural and plant-based ingredients.

Skin Elements has a three-phase development process leading into commercial scale production and sales:

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2024

SKIN ELEMENTS LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ABN 90 608 047 794

Directors’ report

Following extensive successful evaluation of ECO-Nurture in a live agricultural setting, including a full-season sprayprogram evaluation of ECO-Nurture on 10 kiwifruit farms in New Zealand, ECO Nurture has demonstrated that it is effective against bacteria which has negatively impacted kiwifruit industry in addition to supporting high fruit quality, yield quantity, and cosmetic look of the fruit with zero residual toxicity.

During the last quarter, over 2,500 litres of ECO Nurture concentrate have been delivered to kiwifruit orchard managers in New Zealand with a further 1,500 litres delivered in July. For the third year of the farm evaluations commencing presently over 120 orchards out of the 200 kiwifruit owners have all agreed to immediately move over to ECO Nurture spray application program instead of using chemicals – an immediate 60% take-up.

This evaluation was conducted under Zespri Crop Protection Standards Justified Approval protocols with ECO-Nurture now on the official list Zespri approved spray list. Headquartered in New Zealand, Zespri is the world’s largest marketer of kiwifruit with over $4.5 billion in sales annually.

With the initial success of its evaluation in the kiwifruit sector, the Company is assessing opportunities in other horticulture sectors, including testing on grapes and other fruit and vegetable crops.

5.2.3. SuprCuvr - Development Phase 2 Market Testing

SuprCuvr is a TGA registered hospital-grade disinfectant made from the Company’s proprietary 100% plant-based SE formula. It combines the world’s highest level of efficacy against viral and bacterial infection with a 100% plant-based organic input certified formula to present a significant market opportunity for a chemical-free disinfectant in large-scale settings such as food manufacturing, hospitality retailing businesses, public transport, educational facilities, hospitals and health services.

Skin Elements has continued to focus on test market assessment and qualification of SuprCuvr in transport and educational sectors. These represent large-scale, commercial opportunities for SuprCuvr to be utilised as a disinfectant, replacing widely used chemical-based products.

The Company is currently delivering early sales of SuprCuvr 3 in 1 formulae for disinfectant cleaning, across all government high schools and urban train carriages and stations in Melbourne, Australia.

5.2.4. Soleo Organics

Soléo Organics is an award-winning, natural and organic sunscreen formulation, providing a highly effective, highperformance chemical-free sunscreen. It was the first application borne out of Skin Elements’ SE Formula research and development program.

Negotiations continue to progress during the quarter with a leading health retail group in the United Kingdom for distribution of the Soléo Organics sunscreen formulation under white label.

As part of this process, independent laboratory testing designed to confirm key performance specifications for the UK market is in progress. This includes testing the Soléo Organics sunscreen formulation and final product development testing for both an SPF50 and 5-Star UVA rating which has previously been unheard of for a natural organic sunscreen formulation.

Skin Elements participated in an exclusive Rolls Royce Strive for Perfection: Celebrating 20 years of Goodwood event held in London, on 6 October 2023. Skin Elements was delighted to be a partner at the event and to promote its natural and organic Soléo Organics to a high net-worth audience with a focus on high-end, innovative and sustainable products.

5.2.5. PapayaActivs Phase 2 Completion

The fourth SE formulation, PapayaActivs combines a high concentration of natural pawpaw extract with other active natural ingredients to help relieve the symptoms of skin conditions, like psoriasis, rashes, eczema, assist in healing of minor burns and wounds, and relieve mild muscle, joint and arthritic pain. PapayaActivs is listed on the TGAs Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods.

Skin Elements has completed the Phase 2 product formulation improvements with products expected to go into Phase 3 test market launch in FY2025.

5.2.6. Research and development ( R&D ) tax incentive grant income

During the period, Skin Elements received R&D Rebate of $1.13 million in relation to the eligible research and development spend in FY2023 and an advance of $717K under a R&D Rebate advance facility provided by Radium Capital in relation to the FY2024 eligible R&D expenditure.

The Company’s commitment to the continued research and development of its natural SE Formula Biotechnology sees it eligible for the Federal Government’s R&D tax incentive for the FY2024 with R&D Rebate calculation of $1.19 million as at 30 June 2024.

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.

The Group incurred a loss for the year of $2,161,283 (2023: $11,416,168 loss) and a net cash out-flow from operating activities of $279,377 (2023: $1,835,931 out-flow). As at 30 June 2024, the Group a working capital deficit of $1,669,883 (2023: $533,136 working capital), as disclosed in note 8 of the Capital Management note.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Group securing additional debt and/or equity funding and/or generating profits from its normal course of business.

These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Directors are confident that there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations and liabilities and believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis for the following reasons. Since 30 June 2023, the Group has:

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Skin Elements is eligible for R&D Rebate tax incentive grant and has received $1.13 million during the period in relation to eligible FY2023 R&D expenditure and accrued $1.19 million as at 30 June 2024 in relation to eligible R&D expenditure for FY2024.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Received $796K under a R&D advance facility with Radium Capital.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Board intends, subject to shareholder approval, to issue equity securities in satisfaction of amounts owed to Directors and Key Management of approximately $500K.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Directors’ have confirmed they will not call upon balances owed until such time where the Company has the financial capacity to repay the amounts without impacting the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and pay its other liabilities as and when they fall due for payment.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Company has a successful track record of raising working capital when required through the issue of equity securities, through an entitlement issue or placement.

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Group will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12-month period from the date of signing this financial report.

Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. Given the Group’s history of raising capital to date the Directors are confident of the Group’s ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required.

Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements.

SKIN ELEMENTS LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ABN 90 608 047 794

Directors’ report

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

5.3.3. Adjustments made subsequent to the lodgement of the ASX Appendix 4E Subsequent to the lodgement of the ASX Appendix 4E:

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Loss after tax increased due to following material changes:

  • Share-based payment expense decrease of $235,226 due to the derecognition of rights as described in note 18.2.2d of the financial statement

  • Research and development costs increase of $799,063 due to a reassessment of payables.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Net assets and total equity decreased due to following material changes:

  • Cash and cash equivalents decrease of $27,257 and increase in trade and other payables of $771,805 due to the above research and development costs increase.

5.4. Key Business Risks

The Group is subject to various risk factors, some specific to its business activities while others are of a more general nature. Individually, or in combination, these risk factors may affect the future operating and financial performance of the Group.

5.4.1. Reputation and brand

The strength of Skin Elements' brand and its portfolio is key to business success. Managing the reputation of brands, and mitigating events that may damage brands (e.g. inaccurate media coverage, product quality issues, counterfeit product, third party supplier negligence or incidents, unsatisfactory supplier performance, etc.) is critical to the Group’s ongoing success.

5.4.2. Laws, regulations and geopolitical landscape

Skin Elements operates in a highly regulated industry in all markets in which goods are manufactured and sold. Changing geopolitical landscapes and regulations in each of these jurisdictions may impact many aspects of our operations, including tax assessment and dividend payments to the Group and all aspects of the supply chain (access to raw materials, production, manufacturing, pricing, marketing, advertising, labour, distribution, and product sales). Remaining compliant with, abreast of, and responsive to changes (some of which can significantly impact the nature of operations in these markets) requires diligent monitoring and responsiveness by the business.

5.4.3. Cybersecurity and data management

Data and information security is essential to protect critical intellectual property and data privacy. Continuing advances in technology, systems, and communication channels mean increasing amounts of private and confidential data are now stored electronically. This, together with increasing cybercrime, heightens the need for robust data security measures.

5.4.4. Key partnerships

Skin Elements relies on select key markets and customers (distributors and retailers) to support sales and delivery of strategic initiatives. Suboptimal performance of these markets or key customers, and/or detrimental shifts in market power, could have a significant impact on Skin Elements’ ability to deliver against strategic initiatives. People and culture Skin Elements’ ability to deliver on strategic targets is reliant on retaining and attracting experienced, skilled, and motivated talent. It also requires strong, resilient, and effective leaders as the business grows at pace.

5.4.5. People and culture

5.4.6. Safety, health and wellbeing

Skin Elements cares about the physical and psychological safety, health and wellbeing of our customers, team members and business partners, including employees of our suppliers. We are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for everyone working with, using, and impacted by our products and brand. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and in the last two years in particular, Skin Elements has ensured that measures were in place to protect our team members and business partners as a matter of priority.

5.4.7. Consumer and marketplace

Unanticipated changes in consumer preferences and demand, or competitive pressures that significantly alter the market landscape (e.g. COVID-19, online channel growth, acquisitions, aggressive price wars) can have adverse effects on the business’ ability to capture growth opportunities or effectively manage inventory and supply.

5.4.8. Significant business interruption The Group’s scope of operations could expose it to a range of business disruption risks, such as environmental catastrophes, pandemics (such as COVID-19), natural and manmade hazards and incidents, or politically motivated violence or actions. Significant business disruption could result in Skin Elements’ sites or employees being harmed or threatened, loss of key infrastructure, impacts to supply chain, manufacturing and inventory shortages or loss, financial and reputation impacts.

SKIN ELEMENTS LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 90 608 047 794

ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2024

Directors’ report

5.4.9. Climate and sustainability

Skin Elements’ high quality and sustainability standards together with limited availability of natural ingredients, puts pressure on the continuous supply of some key products. Skin Elements’ ability to effectively respond to and manage the impacts of climate related change and changing markets is key to the company’s values, commitments and growth initiatives.

5.4.10. Financial and treasury

Major events in financial markets (e.g. fluctuations to currency, interest rates, FX, cost of capital, banking/commercial credit, etc.), economic, political, social and/ or major business event (e.g., product recall, pandemics like COVID-19 etc.) can significantly impact the business’ profitability, cash flow and results. The ability to hold sufficient liquidity to ensure the fulfilment of all payment obligations, and the management of capital and availability of funding, are important requirements to support business operations and growth.

5.5. Events Subsequent to Reporting Date

5.5.1. Receipt of R&D Rebate Advance Facility

In September 2024, the Company received a Research and development tax incentive rebate of $1,193,629.

There are no other significant after balance date events that are not covered in this Directors' Report or within the financial statements as disclosed in note 12 Events subsequent to reporting date.

5.6. Future Developments, Prospects, and Business Strategies

Likely developments in the operations, business strategies and prospects of the Group include:

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Company will undertake future capital raising through either equity placement facility, private placement or entitlement issue, and the consideration of other equity and debt proposals

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Company will continue to focus on development and commercialisation of its natural anti-microbial technology as set out in its review of operations.

Other 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.

5.7. Environmental Regulations

The Group's operations are not subject to significant environmental regulations in the jurisdictions it operates in, namely Australia.

The Directors have considered the enacted National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduced a single national reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about the greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the Directors have determined that the NGER Act has no effect on the Company for the current, nor subsequent, financial year. The Directors will reassess this position as and when the need arises.

Directors’ report

12. Remuneration report (audited)

The maximum aggregate annual remuneration of non-executive directors is subject to approval by the shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Company’s Constitution, the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The current maximum aggregate remuneration amount to non-executive directors approved by shareholders under the Constitution is $500,000 per year. The Directors have resolved that fees payable to non-executive directors (Messrs Giglia and Usher) for Board activities are $60,000 p.a. with an additional fee of $20,000 p.a. payable to the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee and the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (Mr Giglia).

b. Executive Directors and other Senior Executives

The Company’s remuneration policy reflects the Company’s obligation to align executive remuneration with shareholders’ interests and to engage appropriately qualified executive talent for the benefit of the Company. In particular, reward should reflect the competitive global market in which the Company operates, individual reward should be linked to performance criteria and should reward both financial and non-financial performance of the Director.

The Board and Nomination & Remuneration Committee are in the process of assessing and implementing the Company’s executive reward framework to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered.

12.2.3. Performance Based Remuneration – Short-term and long-term incentive structure

The Board will review short-term and long-term incentive structures from time to time. Any incentive structure will be aligned with shareholders' interests.

No short-term incentives in the form of cash bonuses were granted during the year.

  • b. Long-term incentives

The Company has in place an Equity Incentive Plan to provide Performance Rights, Options, or Restricted Shares to Directors, Employees, or contractor of the Company. For the year ended 30 June 2024 other than as set out in the Share-based Compensation – Employee Incentive Plan all executive remuneration is set at base level fixed amounts at commensurate market rates or lower. The Equity Incentive Plan aligns shareholder and stakeholder values with executives as the hurdles embedded in the incentive plans include target share price milestones which are typically set at prices above the current share price at the date of issue and expire within a defined timeframe, as detailed in note 18.2.2 on page 46.

The executive Directors will be eligible to participate in any short term and long-term incentive arrangements operated or introduced by the Company (or any subsidiary) from time to time.

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Group sells products to external customers using several mediums which include internet sales, employees direct selling, and the use of wholesalers and businesses who purchase the product and are then responsible for their own on selling processes.

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The internet sales are driven by the Skin Element's website which sets out pricing for the product and delivery. Each wholesaler and business customer order is specific to the client's requirements; however, for each category of customer the performance obligations cease when the Group has delivered the goods to the customers. As at 30 June 2024 the Company did not have any material customer contracts at the reporting date.

  • a. Research and development tax incentive received or receivable are recognised at fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the amount will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

for the year ended 30 June 2024

Note 2 Expenses (cont.)

  • 2.4.1 The Company had previously issued performance rights to KMP which would convert into fully paid shares on achieving certain performance hurdles. These performance rights were recorded at fair value which is amortised over the vesting period (up to four years from date of issue). In the current year the Class B rights were derecognised due to a nil probability that the performance rights below will meet any of the vesting conditions by the milestone dates as described in note 18.2.2d.

2.4.2 Accounting policy - Employee benefits a. Short-term benefits Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided to the reporting date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay at the reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers compensation insurance and payroll tax. Non-accumulating non-monetary benefits, such as medical care, housing, cars and free or subsidised goods and services, are expensed based on the net marginal cost to the Group as the benefits are taken by the employees.

b. Other long-term benefits The Group's obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits other than defined benefit plans, such as long service leave, is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is the Reserve Bank of Australia's cash rate at the report date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company's obligations. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

c. Retirement benefit obligations: Defined contribution superannuation funds A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions onto a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred. d. Equity-settled compensation The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to contractors or to its employees is measured at the fair value of contractor’s services (where the services can be valued) or at the fair value of the equity instruments provided (which includes employee services received) during the period. The measurement date is the grant date and the cost is recognised over the vesting period for the services received by the Company with an increase to the expense (or asset if it directly relates to the development of an asset) with a corresponding increase to equity or reserves. The amount recognised is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that vest except where forfeiture is only due to market conditions not being met. g met. met.

Financial expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings calculated using the effective interest method, unwinding

losses recognised on financial assets. All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest
method and include:
interest on the bank overdraft;
interest on short-term and long-term borrowings; and
interest on finance leases.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a
substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time
as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in income

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

for the year ended 30 June 2024

Note 3 Income tax (cont.)

  • 3.6.1 Potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses have not been brought to account at 30 June 2024 because the Directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax assets as probable at this point in time. These benefits will only be obtained if:

  • i. the Group derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the loss to be realised;

  • ii. the Group continues to comply with conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and

iii. no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group in realising the benefit from the deductions for the loss.

Tax balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes, are based on the best estimates of Directors. These estimates consider both the financial performance and position of the Group as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the Directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents the Directors' best estimate, pending an assessment by tax authorities.

The parent company has accumulated tax losses of $8,015,508 (2023: $7,411,728) which may be available for offset against future taxable profits of the parent company in which the losses arose. The recoupment of these losses is subject to assessment of the Australian Taxation Office.

3.7 Accounting policy

The income tax expense or benefit for the year is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate in Australia adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.

The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in Australia, where the Company's subsidiary and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities ( DTLs ) are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except: when the DTL arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets ( DTAs ) are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except: when the DTA relating to a deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or when a deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a DTA is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. The carrying amount of DTAs is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised DTAs are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the DTA to be recovered. DTAs and DTLs are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. DTAs and DTLs are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the DTAs and DTLs relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. Where the Group receives the Australian Government's Research and development tax incentive , the Group accounts for the refundable tax offset under AASB 112. Funds are received as a rebate through the parent company's income tax return.

  • 4.2.3 In the previous year the Company had received an order from Pacific Health for SuprCuvr totalling $1,055,568 which was produced and delivered into secured warehouse. Subsequently, due to the rapidly evolving market at that time and the launch of the newly developed SuprCuvr disinfectant range, the Company has revised the terms of the order with Pacific Health, including extended payment terms. Due to the uncertainty of the timing of payments under these new terms, as at 31 December 2023, the Company has agreed to the settlement of the debtor’s balance through the repurchase of the SuprCuvr inventory. The Company will continue to work with Pacific Health for the launch of SuprCuvr disinfectant into scale markets and will recognise sales revenue as product is delivered.

  • 4.2.4 The Group continued its development program during the year ended 30 June 2024 resulting in a claim for research and development tax incentive which has been included as a receivable at year end.

4.2.5 Accounting policy

Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from prepaid or cash on delivery to 30 days.

Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms (see also note 4.6.1).

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

4.5 Borrowings(cont.)
4.5.3 Accounting policy
a. Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption
amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid
on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable
that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the
extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as
a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date,
the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current.
Where the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated and the entity issues equity instruments to a creditor to
extinguish all or part of the liability (debt for equity swap), a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss, which is measured
as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value of the equity instruments
issued.
Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is
discharged, cancelled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or
liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. Borrowings are classified as current
liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the
reporting period.
4.6 Other material accounting policies related to financial assets and liabilities
4.6.1 Investments and other financial assets
a. Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss), and
those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of
the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For investments in
equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election
at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income
(FVOCI).
The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
b. Recognition and derecognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits
to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial
assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership.
c. Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair
value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss. Financial assets with embedded
derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal
and interest.

Note 4 Financial assets and financial liabilities (cont.)

4.6 Other material accounting policies related to financial assets and liabilities (cont.)

i. Debt instruments Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Group classifies its debt instruments: Amortised cost : Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses) together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss. FVOCI : Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss. FVPL : Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented net within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. ii. Equity instruments The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Group’s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established. Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognised in other gains/(losses) in the statement of profit or loss as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value. d. Impairment The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

5.1.1 Accounting policy

Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated based on normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory based on weighted average costs. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

5.2.2 Accounting policies

a. Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with any changes in these accounting estimates being accounted for on a prospective basis.

i. Formula and technology

Separately acquired formula and technology are shown at historical cost. Skin Elements formula and technology

(hereafter SE Formula[TM] ), comprises the following, which utilise the same propriety formula in their ingredients:

Invisi® Shield SuprCuvr Disinfectant

Formula and technology acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. They have a finite useful life and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

ii. Software

Costs associated with maintaining software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs that are directly attributable to the improvement of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group are recognised as intangible assets when the Company meets to capitalisation criteria to recognise the asset list in development costs above.

5.2 Intangible assets (cont.) b. Capitalising development costs of formula and technology and software Development costs of formula and technology and software which meet the criteria below are capitalised to the asset to which they relate in the year the costs were incurred. Research expenditure and development expenditure that do not meet the criteria are recognised as an expense as incurred Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated: the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; the availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, internally-generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation on and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately. Expenditures in relation to the development of identifiable and unique products, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets and amortised over their estimated useful lives. Any expenditure related to research is expensed as incurred. c. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. d. Subsequent measurement The Company commences amortisation where the development process is at a stage where the products can be produced in commercial quantities. The Company has assessed that the SE Formula[TM] is at a stage where they meet this test. The Company has assessed the effective life for these assets to be 25 years and amortised the asset carrying values on a straight-line basis for the period. The Company has a policy to regularly review the effective life of each asset. The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation: 2024 2023 Years Years SE Formula[TM] 25 25 Website development costs 5 5

  • 5.2.3 Key estimates

a. Impairment

The Group assesses the impairment of intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the intangible asset that may lead to impairment of the assets recoverable amount in accordance with AASB 136. The assessment of impairment is based on the best estimate of future cash flows available at the time of preparing the report. However, facts and circumstances may come to light in later periods which may change this assessment if these facts had been known at the time.

In undertaking its impairment assessment for the current period, the Group has identified impairment indicators of: lower-than-expected operating performance; and decline of market capital below net assets at reporting date, for the intellectual property assets.

As a result, the Group performed an impairment test which resulted in an impairment of $7,489,990 for the period and the recoverable value of the intangible for the current year was assessed as $nil. This is based on its value-in-use discounted cash flow model due to limited history of sales and contracted sales to support positive cash inflows during the forecast period (i.e., 5 years) which cannot be reliably estimated. The Group has also determined that the recoverable value based on fair value less cost to sell cannot be determined at this point based on the same assumption.

The significant uncertainty on achieving sales and profit may be resolved at the point when the proposed commercialisation of the IP becomes successful and positive cash inflows can be supported by contracted sales. This may result in the reversal of impairment in the future.

b. Amortisation rates

The Group has assessed the effective life of its SE Formula[TM] intangible asset (comprising Soléo Organics formula and technology; McArthur Skincare formula and technology; Elizabeth Jane Natural Cosmetics formula and technology; and Invisi® Shield Hand Sanitiser) taking into account sector practices, the expected product life cycle and its own internal knowledge of the underlying markets to determine an appropriate amortisation rate. This rate is an estimate of what the Group anticipates the intangible will be able to generate future benefits from the commercialisation formula and technology and this may differ from the future results. The Directors will continue to assess the effective life at each reporting date

5.3 Other Significant Accounting Policies related to Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities

5.3.1 Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Group's non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets (see accounting policy at note 3.7) are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated.

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value-in-use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value-in-use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

5.3 Other Significant Accounting Policies related to Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities (cont.)

5.3.2 Leases
a. Recognition and measurement
Until the 2019 financial year, leases of property, plant and equipment were classified as either finance leases or operating
leases. The Company has identified one contract that would be classified as leases under the new standard being the
lease of office premises. Due to the short term and low value nature of this lease, the Company will apply the exemption
and elected to recognise the lease payments in profit and loss on a straight-line basis instead of applying the recognition
and measurement requirements in AASB 16. From 1 July 2019, leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a
corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group.
i. Right of Use Asset
The Group recognises a right of use asset at the commencement date of the lease. The right of use asset is initially
measured at cost. The cost of right of use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, adjusted for any
lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of
costs to dismantle, remove or restore the leased asset, less any lease incentives received.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability;
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received;
any initial direct costs; and
restoration costs.
Subsequent to initial measurement, the right of use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of
the lease term and the estimated useful life.
Right of use assets are subject to impairment and are adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
ii. Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities at the present value of lease payment
to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments)
less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts
expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a
purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating a lease,
if the assessment of lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments
that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition
that triggers the payments occurs. The present value of lease payments is discounted using the interest rate implicit
in the lease or, if the rate cannot be readily determined, the Group's incremental borrowing rate.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. After the commencement date,
the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments
made.
The amount of lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change
in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual
value guarantee, or if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or
termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying
amount of the right of use asset, or is recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right of use asset has
been reduced to zero.
The Group has elected not to recognise right of use assets and lease liabilities for short term leases that have a lease
term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option, and leases of low value assets. The Group recognises
the leasepayments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

7.1 Financial Risk Management Policies

The Boards overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Company in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management policies are approved and reviewed by the Board on a regular basis. These include the credit risk policies and future cash flow requirements. Senior executives meet on a regular basis to analyse financial risk exposure in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts. The overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance.

7.2 Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The main risk the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate and equity price risk.

The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board adopts practices designed to identify significant areas of business risk and to effectively manage those risks in accordance with the Group's risk profile. This includes assessing, monitoring, and managing risks for the Group and setting appropriate risk limits and controls. The Group is not of a size nor complexity to justify the establishment of a formal system for risk management and associated controls. Instead, the Board approves all expenditure, is intimately acquainted with all operations, and discuss all relevant issues at the Board meetings. The operational and other compliance risk management have also been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively.

7.2.1 Credit risk

Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. The Group’s exposure to credit risk is primarily in relation to its cash at bank, short-term deposits, and receivables. The Group does not have any other significant credit risk exposure to a single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.

Note 7 Financial risk management (cont.)

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company's objective in managing credit risk is to minimise the credit losses incurred, mainly on trade and other receivables. Credit risk is managed through maintaining procedures that ensure, to the extent possible, that clients and counterparties to transactions are of sound credit worthiness and their financial stability is monitored and assessed on a regular basis. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables for impairment. Credit terms for normal sales income are generally ranging from prepaid and payment on delivery to 60 days from the day of invoice. For sales with longer settlements, terms are specified in the individual client contracts.

The Group establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables.

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Credit risk exposures

The maximum exposure to credit risk is that to its alliance partners and that is limited to the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements.

Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the Group in accordance with approved Board policy. Such policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with reputable financial institutions residing in Australia, wherever possible. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk, whether through exposure to individual customers, specific industry sectors and/or regions.

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Impairment losses

Impairment losses are recorded against receivables unless the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that point the amount is considered irrecoverable and is written off against the financial asset directly. Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. The ageing of the Group's trade and other receivables at reporting date was as follows:

Trade receivables
Not past due to 30 days
Past due 31 days to 90 days
Past due greater than 90 days

7.2.2 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation.

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group's short, medium, and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by:

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operating, investing, and financing activities;

maintaining a reputable credit profile;

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and

comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with the realisation profile of financial assets.

Note 7 Financial risk management (cont.)

Typically, the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 60 days, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

The financial liabilities of the Group include trade and other payables as disclosed in the statement of financial position. All trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 60 days of the reporting date.

Cash flows realised from financial instruments reflect management's expectation as to the timing of realisation timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. It is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier or at significantly different amounts.

7.2.3 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

The Group's activities minimally expose it to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and exchange rates. The Group does not enter into derivative financial instruments including foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against financial risk. There has been no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk from the previous period.

a. Interest rate risk

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as the Group borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings. Group’s exposures to interest rate in financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note.

b. Foreign exchange risk

The Group is not exposed to any material foreign exchange risk.

  • c. Price risk

Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Group does not presently hold material amounts subject to price risk. As such the Board considers price risk as a low risk to the Group.

7.2.4 Sensitivity Analyses

The Group is not subject to material market risk sensitivities.

7.2.5 Net Fair Values

  • a. Fair value estimation

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the table in note 7 and can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the statement of financial position. Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction. The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their fair values as the carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Financial instruments whose carrying value is equivalent to fair value due to their nature include:

Cash and cash equivalents;

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Trade and other receivables;

==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

Trade and other payables; and

==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Derivative liabilities (recognised at fair value).

The methods and assumptions used in determining the fair values of financial instruments are disclosed in the accounting policy notes specific to the asset or liability.

Note 8 Capital Management

8.1 Capital

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The Groups objectives when managing capital are to:

  • a. Safeguard their ability to continuing as a going concern so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders; and

  • b. Maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt (loans and convertible instruments), cash and cash equivalents, and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses. None of the Group's entities are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative outgoings. Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with its target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.

SECTION C. GROUP STRUCTURE

This section provides information which will help users understand how the Group structure affects the financial position and performance of the Group as a whole. In particular, there is information about:

  • (a) changes to the structure that occurred during the year as a result of business combinations and the disposal of a discontinued operation

  • (b) transactions with non-controlling interests, and

  • (c) interests in joint operations.

A list of significant subsidiaries is provided in note 9.

Note 9 Interest in subsidiaries

The subsidiaries listed below have ordinary shares which are held directly by the Group and the proportion of ownership interest held equals the voting rights held by the Group. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost.

Other Significant Accounting Policies Related to Group Structure
10.1 Basis of consolidation
As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial
statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the Consolidated
Group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased).
10.2 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated
financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed, when necessary, to align them with the policies adopted by the
Group.
Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as non-controlling 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 comprehensive income.
The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the Group
is treated as a capital contribution to that subsidiary undertaking. The fair value of employee services received, measured
by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary
undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity.
Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing
so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.
A list of controlled entities is contained in note 9_Interest in subsidiaries_of the financial statements.
10.3 Loss of control
Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests
and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised
in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interests are measured at fair value at
the date control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial
asset depending on the level of influence retained.
10.4 Transactions eliminated on consolidation
All intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions,
are eliminated inpreparingthe consolidated financial statements.

The Group does not report diluted earnings per share on losses generated by the Group. During the year, the Group's unissued shares under option and performance shares were anti-dilutive.

17.6 Accounting policy

Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to the Group, adjusted for costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends; the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the year that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

The Company determined that there is a nil probability that the performance rights above will meet any of the vesting conditions by the milestone dates, and therefore have no value and will not achieve their proposed objectives. The Company therefore derecognised the accounting treatment from previous periods. The total amount of the expense in 2024 of $253,226 was derecognised as a contra-expense, and allocated as follows: Peter Malone – $189,698, Filippo Giglia – $37,940, and a former director $7,588.

An amount of $276,358 relating to 2022 Class B performance rights that are historic and accounted for in prior periods was also derecognised through a contra-expense in share-based payments, and allocated as follows: Peter Malone – $228,870, Filippo Giglia – $44,574, and a former director $8,915.

Note 18 Share-based payments (cont.)

18.5 Accounting policy The Group may provide benefits to employees (including directors) and consultants of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby services are rendered in exchange for shares or rights over shares ( equity-settled transactions ). The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the Group receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods. The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the expired portion of the vesting period; from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the reporting date. All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to settle the liability. Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied. If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Group or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the Group or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited. If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification 18.6 Key estimate The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instrument at the date at which they are granted. The fair value of options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model uses assumptions and estimates as inputs.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

for the year ended 30 June 2024

Note Note 21
Statement of material accounting policies
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements to
the extent they have not already been disclosed in the other notes above. These policies have been consistently applied to all the
years presented, unless otherwise stated.
**21.1 ** Basis of preparation
21.1.1 Reporting Entity
Skin Elements Limited (Skin Elementsorthe Company) is a listed public company limited by shares, domiciled, and
incorporated in Australia. These are the consolidated financial statements and notes of Skin Elements and controlled entities
(collectivelythe Group). The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group. For the
purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. The Group is a for-profit
entity and is primarily involved in businesses which deliver accredited and non-accredited vocational education and training
solutions throughout Australia and internationally.
The separate financial statements of Skin Elements, as the parent entity, have not been presented with this financial report
as permitted by the_Corporations Act 2001_(Cth).
21.1.2 Basis of accounting
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AAS Board) and
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and the
Corporations Act 2001(Cth).
Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) set out accounting policies that the AAS Board has concluded would result in a
financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events, and conditions to which they apply.
Compliance with AASBs ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
The financial statements were authorised for issue on 30 September 2024 the Directors of the Company.
21.1.3 Going Concern
The financial report has 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.
The Group incurred a loss for the year of $2,161,283 (2023: $11,416,168 loss) and a net cash out-flow from operating
activities of $279,377 (2023: $1,835,931 out-flow). As at 30 June 2024, the Group a working capital deficit of $1,669,883
(2023: $533,136 working capital), as disclosed in note 8 of the_Capital Management_note.
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Group securing additional debt and/or equity
funding and/or generating profits from its normal course of business.
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group's ability
to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the
normal course of business. The Directors are confident that there will be sufficient funds for the Group to meet its obligations
and liabilities and believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis for the following reasons.
Skin Elements is eligible for R&D Rebate tax incentive grant and has received $1.13 million during the period in relation
to eligible FY2023 R&D expenditure and accrued $1.19 million as at 30 June 2024 in relation to eligible R&D expenditure
for FY2024.
Received $796K under a R&D advance facility with Radium Capital.
The Board intends, subject to shareholder approval, to issue equity securities in satisfaction of amounts owed to
Directors and Key Management of approximately $500K.
The Directors’ have confirmed they will not call upon balances owed until such time where the Company has the financial
capacity to repay the amounts without impacting the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and pay its other
liabilities as and when they fall due for payment.
The Company has a successful track record of raising working capital when required through the issue of equity
securities, through an entitlement issue or placement.
The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Group will have sufficient cash flows to meet all
commitments and working capital requirements for the 12-month period from the date of signing this financial report. Based
on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of
preparation is appropriate. In particular, given the Group’s history of raising capital to date, and the LDA Capital facilities the
Directors are confident of the Group’s ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

for the year ended 30 June 2024

Note Note 21
Statement of material accounting policies
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities
other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying
amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Group be unable to continue as a going
concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.
21.1.4 Comparative figures
Where required by AASBs comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current
financial year.
Where the Group retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its
financial statements, an additional (third) statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period in
addition to the minimum comparative financial statements is presented.
21.1.5 New and Amended Standards Adopted by the Group
The Group has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting period
commencing 1 July 2023:
AASB 2020-3_Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual_ Improvements 2018–2020 and Other
Amendments [AASB 1, AASB 3, AASB 9, AASB 116, AASB 137 & AASB 141].
AASB 2021-5_Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax_ related to Assets and Liabilities arising
from a Single Transaction [AASB 112]
The amendments listed above did not have any impact on the amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to
significantly affect the current or future periods.
**21.2 ** Goods and Services Tax(GST)
Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not
recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of
the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown
inclusive of GST. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to,
the taxation authority.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included as a current asset or
liability in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and
financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
**21.3 ** Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.
These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various factors that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised
in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
Judgements made by management in the application of AASBs that have significant effect on the consolidated financial
statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 21.3.1.
21.3.1 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Management discusses with the Board the development, selection and disclosure of the Group's critical accounting policies
and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk
of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed
below:
a. Key estimate – Taxation..................................................................Refer note 3_Income Tax_.
b. _Key estimate – Impairment of intangibles ..................................._Refer note 5.2 Intangible assets.
c. Key estimate – Share-based payments ........................................_Refer note 18_Share-based payments.

**21.4 ** Fair Value
21.4.1 Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending on
the requirements of the applicable AASB.
Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly
unforced transaction between independent, knowledgeable, and willing market participants at the measurement date.
As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine
fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability.
The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation
techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.
To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (i.e. the
market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most
advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts
from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction
costs and transport costs).
For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also considers a market participant's ability to use the asset in its highest
and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The fair value of liabilities and the entity's own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment
arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial
instruments, by reference to observable market information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this
information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective
note to the financial statements.
21.4.2 Fair value hierarchy
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which
categorises fair value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is
significant to the measurement can be categorised into as follows:
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Measurements based on quoted prices Measurements based on inputs other Measurements based on unobservable
(unadjusted) in active markets for than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs for the asset or liability.
identical assets or liabilities that the entity that are observable for the asset or
can access at the measurement date. liability, either directly or indirectly.
The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation
techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. If all significant
inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant
inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3.
The Group would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances:
if a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; or
if significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa.
When a change in the categorisation occurs, the Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy (i.e.,
transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances occurred.
21.4.3 Valuation techniques
The Group selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to
measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the
asset or liability being measured. The valuation techniques selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the
following valuation approaches:
Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions
for identical or similar assets or liabilities.
Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single
discounted present value.
Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

for the year ended 30 June 2024

Note 21 Statement of material accounting policies

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives priority to those techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs that are developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs for which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions are considered unobservable.

21.5 New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2024 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

Basis of preparation

This Consolidated Entity Disclosure Statement (CEDS) has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. It includes certain information for each entity that was part of the consolidated entity at the end of the financial year.

Determination of Tax Residency

Section 295 (3A) of the Corporation Acts 2001 defines tax residency as having the meaning in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. The determination of tax residency involves judgement as there are currently several different interpretations that could be adopted, and which could give rise to a different conclusion on residency. It should be noted that the definitions of ‘Australian resident’ and ‘foreign resident’ in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are mutually exclusive. This means that if an entity is an ‘Australian resident’ it cannot be a ‘foreign resident’ for the purposes of disclosure in the CEDS.

In determining tax residency, the consolidated entity has applied the following interpretation:

Australian tax residency

The consolidated entity has applied current legislation and judicial precedent, including having regard to the Tax Commissioner's public guidance in Tax Ruling TR 2018/5.
