Directors' report

Your directors present their report on the Group, consisting of Skin Elements Limited (Skin Elements, SKN, or the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively the Group), for the half-year ended 31 December 2020.

Skin Elements is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX: SKN).

1. Directors

The names of Directors in office at any time during or since the end of the half-year are:

  • Peter Malone Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
  • Phil Giglia Independent Non-Executive Director and Company Secretary
  • John Poulsen Independent Non-Executive Director (Appointed on 29 October 2020)
  • Craig Piercy Executive Director (Appointed on 29 November 2019, Resigned on 29 October 2020)

(the Directors or the Board)

Directors have been in office since the start of the half-year to the date of this report unless otherwise stated.

2. Operating and financial review

  • 2.1. Operations Review
    • a. Invisi Shield® Natural Disinfectant and Sanitiser

Since launching Invisi Shield® Organics, a natural alcohol-free, anti-microbial sanitiser designed to deliver superior protection, SKN has continued to investigate the use of the SE FormulaTM in a range of applications for Invisi Shield® Organics as a sanitiser and as a disinfectant.

SKN has submitted its application for Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) registration of the new formula Invisi Shield® Organics as a hospital grade disinfectant. A successful registration with the TGA will allow the Company to make more detailed and specific product and label claims in respect to Invisi Shield® which has the potential to open up significant new commercial scale sales and distribution opportunities for Invisi Shield®.

b. SKN relocates to new Head Office at 1242 Hay Street West Perth

SKN has relocated to a new Head Office at 1242 Hay Street, West Perth, Western Australia. This new leased premises provides for sufficient space for Skin Elements' corporate, product development, and sales & marketing operations including a retail shop front

c. SKN appoints new Director

SKN has appointed Mr John Poulsen to the Board as a Non-Executive Director. Mr John Poulsen's appointment brings broad experience and skills to the Board, assisting the Company to develop its corporate strategy and governance as it transitions from research & development to commercial operations.

d. SKN enters into Distribution Agreement for Invisi Shield

SKN entered into a binding Distribution Agreement with Prudential Consultants Pty Ltd (Prudential Consultants) for the distribution of its Invisi Shield® Organics in Australia.

Prudential Consultants has agreed to minimum sales commitments of $2.4 million over three years for the exclusive distribution of Invisi Shield® Organics in New South Wales and Tasmania, and also the distribution of Invisi Shield® Organics outside of these territories on a non-exclusive basis.

Prudential Consultants has taken delivery of samples and training materials and has commenced marketing activities for the Invisi Shield® Organics, with orders under the Distribution Agreement expected to commence once TGA registration is obtained.

e. Global Opportunity

Skin Elements continues to maintain its focus on developing sales of all of its natural products range in Australia and global markets including major retail pharmacy and health chains in the United Kingdom, the expansion of its online sales portal, and the support to its distributors in Europe.

f. Manufacturing Underway

Skin Elements continues to use approved contract production laboratories in Australia to produce its SE Formula product ranges in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices and TGA requirements. Notwithstanding that these manufacturers have production capacity to meet the Company's requirements for the foreseeable future, the restrictions caused by COVID-19 have delayed production and the delivery of inventories from its contract.

Directors' report

g. Collaboration Agreement with Holista Colltech Terminated

In October 2020 the Company received a notice of termination of the Binding Collaboration Term Sheet entered into on 1 April 2020 (Term Sheet) with Holista Colltech (HCT) for the supply of an ingredient for the Company's Invisi Shield formula.

The termination of the Term Sheet has not had any material impact on the operations and production of the Company*.*

h. Option to acquire intertest in Sambora Pty Ltd

In December 2020, SKN announced that it had entered into an exclusive option to acquire up to a 40% equity stake in Sambora Pty Ltd, which owns natural Australian nail polish business, BeachToes. The key terms of the proposed transaction include SKN to pay a $50,000 non-refundable option fee, undertake due diligence, finalisation of commercial terms and execution of formal agreements. As at the date of this report, the parties have agreed to continue to negotiate the terms of the option including the payment of the option fee.

i. Funding of Growth Strategies

The Company continually reviews its financial position to ensure that it has sufficient working capital to undertake its growth programs. During the period Skin Elements:

  • Placement completed the issue of 2,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares and 200,000 attaching options to raise $120,000 cash.
  • Options exercising exercise into fully paid ordinary shares 29,092,632 SKNUOA unlisted options for $$872,778 cash received and 4,882,930 SKNOA listed options for $488,293 cash received.
  • Research and Development rebate received funds amounting to $668,418 in relation to the 2020 R&D program and has accrued a further $335,640 in relation to the 2021 R&D program.
  • Pre-production financing facility Repaid $500,000 drawdown under the pre-factoring financing facility with Custodian Australia Pty Ltd.

Directors' report

2.3. Impact of COVID 19 Coronavirus

Whilst SKN has continued to operate from West Perth premises during the period, the impact of COVID-19 restrictions has seen delay of orders from national and international distributors, restrictions on travel and reduced ability to meet with distributors and new customers, increased costs and shipment timeframes for national and international freight, and delayed production and the delivery of inventories from its contract manufacturers in Victoria and Queensland.

During the period the Company received the Federal Government's Jobkeeper subsidy and Cashflow boost incentives of $92,500.

2.4. Events Subsequent to Reporting Date

In January 2021 SKN provided the options Underwriter (State Securities Pty Ltd) with a shortfall notice advising that 90,713,005 SKNOA options and 1,108,992 SKNUOA options have expired.

In regard to this underwriting obligation, the Underwriter has provided the Company with a total of $1,832,857 in cash comprising $632,857 for the issue of 6,328,571 ordinary fully paid shares pursuant to the shortfall, and a further $1,200,000 for the issue of 12,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares as a placement to the Underwriter.

In March 2021, the Company appointed Mr Phil Gigla as Company Secretary, with Steven Woods and Kate Sainty resigned as Joint Company Secretaries.

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 7 Events subsequent to reporting date on page 16.

2.5. Future Developments, Prospects, and Business Strategies

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

  • The Company will undertake future capital raising through a placement, and the consideration of other equity and debt proposals
  • The Company will continue to focus on development and commercialisation of its natural skin care 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.

3. Auditor's independence and Non-audit services

3.1. Auditor independence

The auditor's independence declaration under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) for the half-year ended 31 December 2020 has been received and can be found on page 4 of the interim financial report.

Note 13 Statement of significant accounting policies

This note provides a list of the significant 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 periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

13.1 Basis of preparation

13.1.1 Reporting Entity

Skin Elements Limited (Skin Elements or the Company) is a listed public company limited by shares, domiciled and incorporated in Australia. This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of Skin Elements Limited and controlled entities. As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year within the Group. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in combination with the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2020, together with any public announcements made during the half-year.

13.1.2 Basis of accounting

The half-year financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The half-year report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and shall be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial report.

The financial statements were authorised for issue on 22 March 2021 by the Directors of the Company.

13.1.3 Comparative figures

Where required by AASBs comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current half-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.

13.1.4 New and Amended Standards Adopted by the Group

The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current half-year. New and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations effective for the current year that are relevant to the Group are:

  • AASB 2018-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of a Business
  • AASB 2018-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of Material
  • AASB 2019-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – References to the Conceptual Framework
  • AASB 2019-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform
  • AASB 2019-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure of the Effect of New IFRS Standards Not Yet Issued in Australia
  • AASB 2020-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions
  • 13.2 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.

13.2.1 Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Directors' declaration

The Directors of the Company declare that:

    1. The financial statements and notes, as set out on pages 5 to 21, are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and:
    • (a) comply with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting; and
    • (b) give a true and fair view of the financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of the performance for the half-year ended on that date of the Company.
    1. in the Directors' opinion there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.

This declaration is made in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors pursuant to s303(5) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and is signed for and on behalf of the directors by:

PETER MALONE Managing Director Dated this Monday, 22 March 2021

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Skin Elements Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Qualified conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Skin Elements Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for qualified conclusion section, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of the Group does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
  • (ii) Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for qualified conclusion

As part of the review of the prior period half-year financial report, we were unable to satisfy ourselves as to the appropriateness and reliability of the forecast of future cash flows that were included in the impairment model to support the carrying value of the Intangible assets as at 31 December 2019. As a result, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments to the carrying value of the Intangible asset in the statement of financial position were necessary for the period ended 31 December 2019 and a qualified conclusion was issued on the 31 December 2019 half-year financial report.

Our opinion on the current period's financial report is also modified because of the possible effect of this matter on the comparability of the current period's figures and the corresponding figures.

Basis for conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to the audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's review report.

Responsibility of the directors for the financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's responsibility for the review of the financial report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 31 December 2020 and its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
