EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This Explanatory Memorandum relates to the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in the Star Combo Conference Room at 171 – 177 Woodpark Rd, Smithfield, NSW, 2164 on Tuesday 26 November 2019 at 11:00 am (Sydney time).
Financial Report and Reports of the Directors and Auditor
This item allows Shareholders the opportunity to consider the Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report of the Company (together, Reports ). Under Section 317 of the Corporations Act the Company is required to lay these three reports, together comprising the Company’s Annual Report, before its Shareholders at its Annual General Meeting. Shareholders will have a reasonable opportunity at the Annual General Meeting to ask questions about or make comments on the Reports and on the business, operations and management of the Company.
By law, the Auditor of the Company is required to attend the Annual General Meeting. Prior to the Annual General Meeting, Shareholders who are entitled to cast a vote at the Annual General Meeting may forward written questions to the Auditor for response by the Auditor at the Annual General Meeting if such questions are relevant to:
-
the content of the Auditor’s Report; or
-
the conduct of the audit of the Financial Report.
All such written questions for the Auditor must be submitted to the Company by no later than 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday 19 November 2019 (pursuant to section 250PA of the Corporations Act).
At the Annual General Meeting, the Auditor will be available to take Shareholders’ questions relevant to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements (contained in the Financial Report), and the independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
Resolution 1 Remuneration Report
Resolution 1 provides Shareholders the opportunity to vote on the Company’s Remuneration Report. Under Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must put the adoption of its Remuneration Report to a vote at the Annual General Meeting. The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors’ Report (as set out in the Company’s Annual Report) and can be downloaded from the Company’s website, www.starcombo.com.au .
Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company, and a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 1 will not require the Directors to alter any arrangements in the Remuneration Report.
However, if at least 25% of the votes cast on this Resolution (in person or by proxy) to approve the Remuneration Report are against adoption of the Remuneration Report at the AGM, then:
-
if comments are made on the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting, the Company's Remuneration Report in respect of the financial year ending on 30 June 2020 will be required to include an explanation of the Board's proposed action in response to those comments or, if no action is proposed, the reasons why; and
-
if, at the Company's annual general meeting in 2020, at least 25% of the votes cast on the resolution for adoption of the Remuneration Report are against its adoption, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing that a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) be held within 90 days to consider the election of Directors of the
Page 6
Company ( Spill Resolution ). The Spill Meeting must be held within 90 days of the date of the 2020 Annual General Meeting. If more than 50% of the votes cast on the Spill Resolution are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Spill Resolution will be passed and all of the Directors in office at the 2020 Annual General Meeting (other than the managing director) will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting, unless they are re-elected at the Spill Meeting.
It is noted that at the Company’s last Annual General Meeting, the votes cast against the Remuneration Report represented less than twenty five (25%) per cent of the total votes cast and accordingly, a spill resolution will not under any circumstances be required for the Annual General Meeting.
The Remuneration Report is set out in the Directors’ Report in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report. The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. Each of the Directors recommends the Remuneration Report to Shareholders for adoption.
The Chairman will allow reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
Noting that each current executive and non-executive Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from the Company as set out in the Remuneration Report, and that each of them (and their closely related parties) would be excluded from voting on Resolution 1, the Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of adopting the Remuneration Report.
Resolution 2: Re-election of Mr Richard Allely
ASX Listing Rule 14.5 and rule 26.6 of the Company’s Constitution provide that an election of directors must be held each year at the annual general meeting of the Company. The Board has determined that Mr Richard Allely will retire and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.
Resolution 2 provides for the re-election of Richard Allely as a non-executive Director of the Company in accordance with Listing Rule 14.4 and rule 26.3 of the Constitution.
Richard was appointed to the Board in 2018 as an independent non-executive Director and Chairman. Richard also currently sits on the board of the Australasian Medical Publishing Co Pty Limited (Chairman). Richard has previously held non-executive roles on the boards of Perisher Blue Pty Ltd, Australian Property Monitors Pty Ltd and Source Financial Inc. (a USA Public Company). He has also been an independent member of Work Cover Authority of NSW and an advisory board member of Renoir Consulting Group.
Richard was the Managing Director and CEO of PMP Limited ( PMP ) until 2012, when he stepped down from the position, after serving just over 10 years with the company (7 years as CFO). PMP is the largest printing and distribution company in Australia and New Zealand with a turnover in excess of $A1 billion.
Prior to this, Richard held senior executive roles with a number of leading Australian and International companies including Tenix Pty Limited (formerly Transfield Pty Limited), John Fairfax Holdings Limited, Boral Limited, James Hardie Industries Limited and Fanner-PLP Pty
Page 7
Limited. Richard has significant experience in the manufacturing, building & construction and publication and media sectors within Australia and South East Asia.
Richard holds MBA, DipCM and Accounting and Commerce qualifications.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2. If the Chairman is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 2, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
The Board, other than Mr Richard Allely, recommends the reappointment of Mr Richard Allely as a non-executive Director.
Resolution 3: Ratification of Issue of 6,981,115 Ordinary Shares
Resolution 3 seeks to ratify the issue of 6,981,115 Shares to the vendors of Austoyou Group Pty Limited and Koala Mall Pty Limited on 18 February 2019 at $0.51 per Share.
Overview
Star Combo Pharma Limited announced on 19 February 2019 that it had completed the acquisition of the businesses of Koala Mall Pty Ltd and Austoyou Group Pty Ltd for A$10 million.
Austoyou is a well-established Australia-China e-commerce platform that offers over 5,000 highdemand product lines directly to Chinese health product consumers. This direct-to-consumer platform provides Star Combo with an opportunity to significantly increase product sales and accelerate its China growth strategy. Importantly, Austoyou has the ability to provide Star Combo with customer demand feedback and will allow the Company to enhance its product lines according to changing customer demand trends. Austoyou gives Star Combo an immediate competitive advantage in the high-demand market for Australian vitamins, skincare and health supplements into the large China consumer market.
The Koala Mall business provides a retail brand and premium shopping experience to showcase the range of Star Combo Pharma vitamins, skincare, milk products and health supplements at a number of highly visible retail stores in Sydney.
The acquired businesses delivered approximately $17 million in sales in FY18 and have shown growth of more than 20% per annum in the past two years as demand for a broad range of Australian manufactured and quality controlled consumer goods, continues to increase from Chinese consumers.
Acquisition details :
Austoyou and Koala Mall were acquired via the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement dated 5 February 2019 which sets out a three stage completion process.
-
Stage 1. Completed on 19 February 2019 consisted of 70% of the Purchase Amount structured as 50% cash payment and 50% in shares issued at $0.51.
-
Stage 2. 12 months post settlement, a further 15% of the Purchase Amount. If any shares are to be issued for this payment, they will be issued at a 10% discount from the VWAP in the 10 days prior to payment.
Page 8
- Stage 3. 24 months post settlement, a final 15% of the Purchase Amount. If any shares are to be issued for this payment, they will be issued at a 10% discount from the VWAP in the 10 days prior to payment.
Under Listing Rule 7.1 a company must not issue more than 15% of its equity securities in any 12 month period, without the approval of its ordinary shareholders, unless an exception applies in Listing Rule 7.2.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows a company which makes an issue that complies with Listing Rule 7.1 to obtain subsequent Shareholder approval for the issue and so reinstate the company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its capital under Listing Rule 7.1. Resolution 3 complies with Listing Rule 7.4 and, if passed, will reinstate the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its ordinary shares within a 12 month period. If shareholders ratify the issue of securities at the Annual General Meeting, those securities will be treated as having been made with approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If the Company's shareholders ratify the issue of the 6,981,115 Shares that occurred on 19 February 2019, these securities will be deemed to have been issued with Shareholder approval.
Terms of Issue
The terms of the issue of the shares are as follows:
-
(a) The Shares were issued at $0.51 per Share raising $3,560,368.
-
(b)
-
The Shares have the same rights as all other Shares on issue.
-
(c) The funds raised from the issue of the shares were used as part payment for the acquisition of the businesses of Koala Mall Pty Limited and Austoyou Group Pty limited.
-
(d) It is not considered from an economic and commercial point of view that there are any costs or detriments, including opportunity costs or taxation consequences, for the Company or benefits forgone by the Company that will result from the issue of the Shares to the Participants pursuant to Resolution 3.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 3. If the Chairman is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 3, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
Directors’ Recommendation
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
Resolution 4 Approval of Additional 10% Limit - 2019
Resolution 4 seeks to approve the issue of new shares to the extent of 10% of the total shares on issue, to give the company the flexibility to pursue and fund its growth strategies.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities by special resolution passed at an annual general meeting to have the additional capacity to issue equity securities. The Company seeks Shareholder approval to permit the Company to issue an additional 10% of its issued capital over a 12 month period in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1A ( Additional Placement Capacity ).
An approval under Listing Rule 7.1A must be for a period commencing on the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of the following:
Page 9
-
(a) The date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained.
-
(b) The date of the approval by holders of the eligible entity’s ordinary securities of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or Listing Rule 11.2.
An eligible entity which has obtained the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities under Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue during the period of the approval a number of equity securities equivalent to 10% calculated in accordance with formula set out in the ASX rules.
This 10% capacity, is in addition to the 15% capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
In 2012, the ASX introduced ASX Listing Rule 7.1A which enables certain ‘eligible entities’ to issue equity securities of up to 10% of their issued share capital through placements over the 12month period commencing after the annual general meeting at which the additional approval is obtained ( Additional Placement Capacity ). ASX Listing Rules require that Shareholders approve the Additional Placement Capacity by special resolution, at an annual general meeting before any equity securities are issued under the Additional Placement Capacity.
For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A an ‘eligible entity’ is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an ‘eligible entity’ for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The Additional Placement Capacity is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If the Additional Placement Capacity is not approved, the Directors will still be allowed to issue equity securities of up to 15% of the Company’s issued capital pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of equity securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(A x D) – E
A is the number of shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
a) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
-
b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
c) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;
-
d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
D is 10%
E is the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
Page 10
ASX Listing Rule 7.3A
In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A the Company provides the following information.
Any securities issued under the Additional Placement Capacity will be in the same class as existing quoted securities of the Company. The Company has on issue ordinary fully paid shares (ASX:S66).
The issue price for each security issued under the Additional Placement Capacity will not be less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for securities in that class over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
if the securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date above, the date on which the securities are issued.
The issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may result in voting dilution of existing ordinary shareholders (as shown in Table 1). There is also the risk that:
-
the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
-
the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the issue date.
Equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may be issued until the earlier of:
-
1 year following the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
-
the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a significant change to the Company’s activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a disposal of a major asset under ASX Listing Rule 11.2 or such longer period if allowed by the ASX.
Any approval of the Additional Placement Capacity at this Annual General Meeting will cease to be valid if and from the date that ordinary shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.
The Company may issue equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
non-cash consideration: for the acquisition of new assets or the settlement of obligations (in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by ASX Listing Rules); or
-
cash consideration: to raise funds for working capital, to fund product research, development and commercialisation programs or for the acquisition of new assets.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any equity securities.
The Company’s allocation policy for issues under the Additional Placement Capacity is dependent on prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue.
The identity of the allottees of the equity securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:
Page 11
-
the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including rights issues or other issues in which existing shareholders may participate;
-
the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
the financial position of the Company; and
-
advice from the Company’s advisors.
The Directors have not decided if they will issue any securities under the Additional Placement Capacity and so allottees under the Additional Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. If Directors decide to issue securities under the Additional Placement Capacity, allottees may include existing shareholders, existing substantial shareholders and/or new shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
Assuming Resolution 4 is passed, Table 1 shows the dilution of Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities (variable "A") calculated in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2.
Table 1 also shows:
-
I. two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and
-
II. two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Please note that the balances shown above are true and correct at time of printing.
Table 1 above has been prepared based on the following assumptions:
-
Variable A is based on the number of Shares on issue as at 18 October 2019.
-
The Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the Additional Placement Capacity.
Page 12
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.
-
The table shows only the issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity and not under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of equity securities under the additional placement capacity includes only shares.
-
The issue price of $0.49 was the closing price of Shares as traded on ASX on 5:00pm (AEDT), 18 October 2019. This price may fluctuate between the time of preparing this Notice and the date of the Meeting.
The Company has never previously obtained approval for the Additional Placement Capacity.
Voting Exclusion and Restriction Statement:
The Company will, in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.11, disregard any votes cast in respect of Resolution 4 by a person who may participate in the 10% placement issue and a person who might obtain a benefit, except a benefit solely in the capacity of a holder of ordinary securities, if this resolution is passed, and any associates of those persons.
As at the date of this Notice of Meeting the Company has no specific plans to issue equity securities under the 10% placement issue and therefore it is not known who (if any) may participate in a potential (if any) issue of equity securities under the 10% placement issue.
However, the Company need not disregard a vote cast on the resolution if:
-
it is cast by a person as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions on the proxy form; or
-
it is cast by the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.
Directors’ Recommendation
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
