REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Summary
The year ended 30 June 2006 has seen a high level of activity including the joint development of the fertility technology project with Manawatu Biotech Investments Limited ("MBIL"), ongoing assessment and due diligence carried out on various commercial opportunities, a capital raising and a change to the management and Board structure.
Having been appointed in December 2005 as Non-Executive Chairman the seven months to 30 June 2006 have been spent in conjunction with the Board assessing and continuing management of existing projects, completing a capital raising, developing a profile of, and identifying and hiring an appropriate managing director and carrying out an in depth review of an opportunity that did not satisfy the full due diligence process.
MBIL
The MBIL opportunity involved the Company entering into various agreements with MBIL that involved Genesis providing development funding for its fertility technology as well as securing an option to purchase the entire issued capital in MBIL within a twelve month time frame.
MBIL's focus is the development of commercial products based on its proprietary science concerning the measurement of the urinary glucuronides E1G and PDG which are metabolites of oestrogen and progesterone, respectively, found in the urine of female humans and various other mammals.
Throughout the year MBIL commissioned a US based liotechnology company BioDot Inc to perform product development for two MBIL fertility hormone assays for women to a point where assays could be considered to be at the "proof of concept" stage.
For each of the two assays, BioDot were given a specification to work towards. These specifications were derived from the MBIL scientists' understanding of the requirements of the assays as indicators of the fertile status of women. The BioDot work concluded in December, with reporting occurring to MBIL late January.
In addition, BioDot manufactured and shipped to MBIL a batch of assay strips for testing. This testing work is currently underway at MBIL.
Generally, the assays developed by BioDot meet the criteria set out for them. In particular, BioDot demonstrated that paramagnetic particle assay technology provides an effective means of taking quantitative measurements of the levels of urinary metabolites of the key fertility hormones estrogen and progesterone, in the low assay time of 15 minutes. Further work was required to develop 'market-ready' assays.
Significant progress was made in respect of the development of the test strips themselves over the last twelve months and it demonstrated in the opinion of MBIL that the concept of using lateral flow assays based on paramagnetic particle technology is a valid one.
Whilst it is possible that the technology may be licensed now, further work was required to create a "marketready" product.
Under the terms of the option agreement Genesis had until early July 2006 to elect to exercise its option and purchase 100% of the issued capital of MBIL and by doing so be the ultimate owner of the MBIL technology as well as being responsible for the ongoing funding and project development.
In July 2006 the Company announced to the market that after considering several alternatives in relation to this asset, the Board of Genesis resolved to continue its involvement in MBIL on the following basis:

-
- Sought full repayment of the monies advanced under the loan facility:
-
- Elected not to exercise its option to purchase 100% of MBIL;
-
- Has negotiated a position whereby Genesis have conditionally agreed to participate in an intended equity capital raising by MBIL to a level of NZD$250,000.
Rationale for not Exercising Option
Whilst the Board was satisfied with the continued development work carried out over the last twelve months by MBIL, and after discussions with the Company and its advisers is encouraged by MBIL's ongoing commercialisation strategy, the Board resolved not to exercise its option to purchase 100% of the Company.
The end rationale for not proceeding with the exercise of the option was carefully considered including site visits made by the newly appointed Managing Director to assess and review the project and was based largely on the following:
-
- Assessed difficulty of running and administering the ongoing project in regional New Zealand from Genesis's head office in Perth;
-
- Given the underlying status of the Company and its project, the effective value prescribed to MBIL through the exercise of the option was considered too high:
-
- Upon exercise, Genesis would have been responsible for providing 100% of the required funding for MBIL, which for its next stage is considered to be approximately AUD $1 million:
- Prior to the option exercise date, Genesis negotiating an in principle agreement (subject to 4. obtaining certain MBIL approvals) whereby Genesis has conditionally agreed to subscribe for shares in MBIL at an agreed lower entry value point.
The Board considers that it has achieved a very positive outcome for Genesis by seeking repayment of its original loan monies, but maintaining a meaningful interest in the Company via its proposed shareholding and thereby gaining an exposure to the upside of any commercialisation success MBIL may have through implementation of its next stage commercialisation path.
The Board notes that the repayment of the loan by MBIL to Genesis and any subsequent investment by Genesis is conditional upon, amongst other things, MBIL being successful in raising sufficient equity capital.
As at the date of this report the Company was awaiting the completion of the MBIL 1st phase capital raising which if successful will be used in part to repay the loan amount outstanding to Genesis.
Commercial Opportunities
The Company reviewed several opportunities in the medical device sector throughout the year. Genesis completed an in-depth review of a project surrounding the establishment of a facility for the receiving, processing, culturing and storage of cells for use in the cord blood storage industry as well as the development of a collagen cell replacement therapy.
After having reviewed and considered all available due diligence material, the Board resolved not to proceed with the proposed transaction as it considered given the early stage nature of the projects and the existing competitor landscape, the Board felt there was insufficient commercial upside to proceed.
Capital Raising
The Company completed an underwritten share and option offer in January 2006. The Company offered 80 million shares at an offer price of $0.03 plus 80 million attaching options to raise a total of $2.4 million (before costs of the offer). The options have an exercise price of $0.03 and are able to be exercised on or before 30 November 2010.

Management
With the change of Board structure occurring in late November 2005, the new Board resolved that a full time Managing Director was required to drive the business forward. The Board composed a profile and identified Mr Don Valentino as the ideal candidate.
In his previous roles he has been successful in building bus inesses and driving growth through increased sales and strict operating cost management. Over the years Mr Valentino has developed an extensive network of medical industry participants and industry peers.
Mr Valentino joined the Company in May and has already commenced accessing his extensive network to assess existing projects and put in place strategies for the identification, review and negotiation on new projects as they come to light.
The Board is comfortable that the Company is now well positioned to deal with existing assets and identify new projects under the stewardship of an experienced business builder.
Financials
The consolidated entity's operating loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2006 was $1,145,101 (2005: loss of $386,191). This result included interest income totalling $82,257 offset by operating expenditure which has increased this financial year due mainly to costs incurred in regard to due diligence undertaken on the projects included in this report.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO BALANCE DATE
Manawatu Biotech Investments Limited ("MBIL")
In July 2005, Cenesis Biomedical Limited ("Genesis") entered into an option agreement to purchase 100% of the issued capital of MBIL on agreed terms and conditions. Genesis's option had an expiry date twelve months from the date of the agreement.
In addition, Genesis entered into a loan facility agreement whereby Genesis agreed to loan $350,000 to MBIL. These loan monies are disclosed as MBIL Receivable at Note 7 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
In July 2006 the Company announced to the market that after considering several alternatives in relation to this asset, the Board of Genesis resolved to continue its involvement in MBIL on the following basis:
-
- Has sought full repayment of the loan from MBIL
-
- Elected not to exercise its option to purchase 100% of MBIL;
-
- Has negotiated a position whereby GBL have conditionally agreed to participate in an intended equity capital raising by MBIL to a level of NZD$250,000.
The Board considers that it has achieved a very positive outcome for Genesis by seeking repayment of its original loan monies, but maintaining a meaningful interest in the Company via its proposed shareholding and thereby gaining an exposure to the upside of any commercialisation success MBIL may have through implementation of its next stage commercialisation path.
The Board notes that the repayment of the loan by MBIL to Genesis and any subsequent investment by Genesis is conditional upon, amongst other things, MBIL being successful in raising sufficient equity capital.
As at the date of this report the Company was awaiting the commencement of the MBIL Ist phase capital raising which if successful will be used in part to repay the loan amount outstanding. Until an underwritten capital raising proceeds the directors believe it is appropriate to provide against the $352,521 MBIL receivable in full. Accordingly a provision for $352,521 has been recorded. This provision was not reflected in the Appendix 4E Preliminary Final Report released to the Australian Stock Exchange on 13 September 2006.

The Company has entered into an agreement dated 29 May 2006 whereby Back to Health Pte Ltd and DBCI Asia Pacific Pte Ltd (together "DBC") have agreed to purchase back certain equipment originally purchased by the Company in relation to the DBC operations.

GENESIS BIOMEDICAL LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2006
$\mathbf{L}$ CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of Genesis Biomedical Limited (the Company) for the year ended 30 June 2006 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 27 September 2006.
Genesis Biomedical Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian stock exchange.
$\overline{2}$ . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of accounting
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, and Australian Accounting Standards. Other mandatory professional reporting requirements (Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views) have also been complied with.
The financial report has been prepared in accordance with the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value.
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
(b) Statement of Compliance
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS).
This is the first financial report based on AIFRS and comparatives for the year ended 30 June 2005 have been restated accordingly except for the adoption of AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation and AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The Company has adopted the exemption under AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards from having to apply to AASB 132 and AASB 139 to the comparative period. Reconciliations of AIFRS equity and profit for 30 June 2005 to the balance reported in the 30 June 2005 financial report and at transition to AIFRS are detailed in Note 3.
Certain Australian Accounting Standards and UIG interpretations have recently been issued or amended but are not vet effective and have not been adopted by the group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2006. The directors have assessed the impact of these new or amended standards (to the extent relevant to the group) and do not expect any impact to the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

GENESIS BIOMEDICAL LTD AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2006
$2.$ SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTD.
(c) Principles of Consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity controlled by Genesis Biomedical Limited whereby it has the power to control the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the economic entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the economic entity during the year, their operating results have been included/excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.
Minority equity interests in the equity and results of the entities that are controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report. Losses that exceed the minority interest have been allocated against the majority interest.
(d) Income Tax
The economic entity adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on the profit from ordinary activities adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with he conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
Since the enactment of the Tax Consolidation legislation, the Genesis consolidated group has elected not to enter the tax consolidation regime.
(e) Financial Instruments Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.
$\overline{2}$ . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTD.
(e) Financial Instruments (cont'd)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
(f) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the entity's functional and presentation currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement.
(g) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will results and that outflow can be reliably measured.
(h) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
(i) Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest method, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts though the expected life of the financial instrument) to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Rental Income is recognised upon receipt of rental monies.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(i) 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 Australian Tax Office. 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 balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(k) Shares
Ordinary shares have the right to receive dividends as declared and, in the event of winding up the company, to participate in the proceeds from the sale of all surplus assets in proportion to the number of and amounts paid up on shares held. Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at a meeting of the company.

$\overline{2}$ . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTD.
(1) Other Current Receivables
The group has elected to apply the option available under AASB 1 of adopting AASB 132 and AASB 139 from 1 July 2005. Outlined below are the relevant accounting policies for other receivables applicable for the years ended 30 June 2006 and 30 June 2005.
Accounting policies applicable for the year ended 30 June 2006
Other current receivables are carried at the nominal amounts due. The collectability of debts is assessed continually and specific provision is made for any doubtful debts.
Accounting policies applicable for the year ended 30 June 2005
Other current receivables are recognised at cost less any provision for uncollectible debts. An estimate for doubtful debts was made when collection of the full amount was no longer probable.
(m) Payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or received, whether or not billed to the company or consolidated entity.
(n) Contributed Equity
Issued and paid up capital is recognized at the fair value of the consideration received by the company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
(o) Employee benefits
Provision is made for employee entitlement benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries and annual leave.
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled.
Employee benefit expenses arising in respect of the following categories:
- wages and salaries, non-monetary benefits, annual leave, and other leave benefits; and
- other types of employee benefits
are charged against profits on a net basis in their respective categories.
(p) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members, adjusted for:
- costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
- the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have ٠ been recognised as expenses; and
- other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

$\overline{2}$ . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTD.
(q) Property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation.
Assets useful life, residual value and amortisation are revised and adjusted if necessary at each balance date.
Any item of property, plant or equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:
Plant and Equipment – over 5 to 15 years.
(r) Leases
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight line basis over the lease term.

NOTE 3: FIRST-TIME ADOPTION OF AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
As stated in Genesis Biomedical Limited 2005 Annual Report notes to the accounts, the Company at that stage was of the opinion that any impact from transitioning its accounting policies and financial reporting from Australian Standards to Australian equivalents of International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) would be minimal. As a result of adopting AASB 127 "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements" the minority interest loss of $21,389 (see reconciliation below) has been reclassified into retained earnings. No other transitional adjustments were required to the Income Statement or Cashflow statement.

As at 30 June 2006 deferred tax assets were available to the consolidated entity in respect of operating losses. The Directors estimate the potential income tax benefit at 30 June 2006 in respect of tax losses not brought to account is approximately $4,452,142 (2005: $4,108,612). The benefit of these losses has not been brought to account as realisation is not probable.

Aggregate lease expenditure represents lease commitments pursuant to an office accommodation lease entered into effective 1 May 2006 for a period of three years. This lease is for the Company's head office which effective May 2006 is now situated in Perth.
The previous years operating lease related to office accommodation expired in September 2005. Amounts not provided for in 2005 equated to the sub-lease commitments received by the Company from sub-tenants that occupied the premises pertaining to the then operating lease.
An additional operating lease related to office accommodation that expired in April 2006 and was assigned to the sub-tenant effective April 2005. The terms of the assignment provided for the Company to be liable for all rent and outgoings due under the operating lease should the subtenant default on their obligations under the terms of the assigned lease. This lease expired in April 2006.
A provision for surplus leased office accommodation was recognised in the prior year for the expected lease cost to be paid by the consolidated entity less any amounts to be recovered from sub-leasing. The provision was based on the best estimate of the expenditure to be incurred and sub-leasing income to be received, and was reviewed each reporting date to determine whether the provision is adequate. This provision is no longer required as the leases associated with the surplus lease space have terminated.

$22.$ SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Manawatu Biotech Investments Limited ("MBIL")
In July 2005, Genesis Biomedical Limited ("Genesis") entered into an option agreement to purchase 100% of the issued capital of MBIL on agreed terms and conditions. Genesis's option had an expiry date twelve months from the date of the agreement.
In addition, Genesis entered into a loan facility agreement whereby Genesis agreed to loan $350,000 to MBIL. These loan monies are disclosed as MBIL Receivable at Note 7 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
In July 2006 the Company announced to the market that after considering several alternatives in relation to this asset, the Board of Genesis resolved to continue its involvement in MBIL on the following basis:
-
- Has sought full repayment of the loan from MBIL
-
- Elected not to exercise its option to purchase 100% of MBIL;
-
- Has negotiated a position whereby GBL have conditionally agreed to participate in an intended equity capital raising by MBIL to a level of NZD$250,000.
The Board considers that it has achieved a very positive outcome for Genesis by seeking repayment of its original loan monies, but maintaining a meaningful interest in the Company via its proposed shareholding and thereby gaining an exposure to the upside of any commercialisation success MBIL may have through implementation of its next stage commercialisation path.
The Board notes that the repayment of the loan by MBIL to Genesis and any subsequent investment by Genesis is conditional upon, amongst other things, MBIL being successful in raising sufficient equity capital.
As at the date of this report the Company was awaiting the commencement of the MBIL Ist phase capital raising which if successful will be used in part to repay the loan amount outstanding. Until an underwritten capital raising proceeds the directors believe it is appropriate to provide against the $352,521 MBIL receivable in full. Accordingly a provision for $352,521 has been recorded. This provision was not reflected in the Appendix 4E Preliminary Final Report released to the Australian Stock Exchange on 13 September 2006.
DBC Equipment
The Company has an unlisted investment being a 15% shareholding in the Singapore based Back to Health Pte Ltd, a 50% shareholder in DBCI Asia Pacific Pte Ltd. This company holds the Master Licence for the DBC operations in Asia. The directors resolved to write down the value of this holding to Nil as at 31 December 2003.

The Company has entered into an agreement dated 29 May 2006 whereby Back to Health Pte Ltd and DBCI Asia Pacific Pte Ltd (together "DBC") have agreed to purchase back certain equipment originally purchased by the Company in relation to the DBC operations.
The material commercial terms of this agreement are that DBC and associates have agreed to purchase back the DBC equipment from the Company through the payment of 10,000 EURO plus agree to enter into a share swap whereby the parties agree to "swap back" their respective holdings in Back to Health Pte Ltd and DBC Australia Pty Ltd.
The Company had written down the value of the equipment to zero. This transaction has not been reflected in the financial statements to 30 June 2006 as the transaction had not completed, however will be recognised in the subsequent accounting period.

$24.$ FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Groups principal financial instruments comprise cash at bank, security deposits and receivables. The main purpose for these financial instruments is to provide finance for the Group's operations.

Credit Risk
The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties including having its largest financial instruments cash and security deposits with one of the Australian four pillar banks.
Receivables balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Groups exposure to bad debts is not significant.

Independent audit report to members of Genesis Biomedical Limited
Scope
The financial report, remuneration disclosures and director responsibility
The financial report comprises the balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement, accompanying notes to the financial statements, and the directors' declaration for Genesis Biomedical Limited (the company) and the consolidated entity, for the year ended 30 June 2006. The consolidated entity comprises both the company and the entities it controlled during that year.
The company has disclosed information as required by paragraphs Aus 25.4 to Aus 25.7.2 of Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures ("remuneration disclosures"), under the heading "Remuneration Report" in the directors' report, as permitted by Corporations Regulation 2M.6.04
The directors of the company are responsible for preparing a financial report that gives a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the company and the consolidated entity, and that complies with Accounting Standards in Australia, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report. The directors are also responsible for the remuneration disclosures contained in the directors' report.
Audit approach
We conducted an independent audit of the financial report in order to express an opinion to the members of the company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement and the remuneration disclosures comply with Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control, and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.
We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including compliance with Accounting Standards in Australia, and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the company's and the consolidated entity's financial position, and of their performance as represented by the results of their operations and cash flows and whether the remuneration disclosures comply with Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures.
We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included:
- examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial report and the remuneration disclosures; and
- assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors.
While we considered the effectiveness of management's internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.
We performed procedures to assess whether the substance of business transactions was accurately reflected in the financial report and the remuneration disclosures. These and our other procedures did not include consideration or judgement of the appropriateness or reasonableness of the business plans or strategies adopted by the directors and management of the company.
Independence
We are independent of the company and the consolidated entity and have met the independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001. We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor's Independence Declaration a copy of which is disclosed after the Directors' Report. The Auditors' Independence Declaration would have been expressed in the same terms if it had been given to the directors at the date this audit report was signed.
Audit opinion
In our opinion:
- the financial report of Genesis Biomedical Limited is in accordance with: $\mathbf{1}$ .
- $(a)$ the Corporations Act 2001, including:
- giving a true and fair view of the financial position of Genesis Biomedical Limited $(i)$ and the consolidated entity at 30 June 2006 and of their performance for the year ended on that date; and
- complying with Accounting Standards in Australia and the Corporations Regulations $(ii)$ $200I$ ; and
- other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia. $(b)$
- $2.$ the remuneration disclosures that are contained in the directors' report comply with Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 30 JUNE 2006
The Board of Directors of Genesis Biomedical Ltd is responsible for the corporate governance of the consolidated entity. The board guides and monitors the business and affairs of Genesis Biomedical Ltd on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable. In considering the issue of corporate governance the board are cognisant of the size of its operations and the fact that the board consists presently of four members. Mr Rodger Johnston currently undertaking a Non-Executive Chairman role. Mr Donald Valentino the Managing Director with the remaining two directors being Non Executive Directors.
Composition of the Board
The composition of the board is determined in accordance with the following principles and guidelines:
- the board should comprise directors with an appropriate range of qualifications and expertise; and
- the board shall meet at least every second month and follow meeting guidelines set down to ensure all directors are made aware of, and have available all necessary information, to participate in an informed discussion of all agenda items.
The directors in office at the date of this statement and there respective terms in office are as follows:
| Name | Position | Term in Office |
|---|---|---|
| Don Valentino | Managing Director | 3 Months |
| Rødger Johnston- | Non-executive Chairman | 9 months |
| Russell Black- | Non-executive Director | 9 months |
| Roger Smith- | Non-executive Director | 2 year 4 months |
Please refer to the Directors Report for the relevant skills and experience of each of these directors.
Board Responsibilities
As the board acts on behalf of the shareholders and is accountable to the shareholders, the board seeks to identify the expectations of the shareholders as well as other regulatory and ethical expectations and obligations. In addition, the board is responsible for identifying areas of significant business risk and ensuring arrangements are in place to adequately manage those risks.
Corporate Governance - Best Practice Recommendations
In accordance with the ASX Corporate Governance Council's best practice recommendations, the Corporate Governance Statement must contain specific information, and also report on the company's adoption of the Council's best practice recommendations on an exception basis, whereby disclosure is required of any recommendations that have not been adopted, together with the reasons why they have not been adopted. Genesis's corporate governance principles and policies are therefore structured with reference to the Corporate Governance Council's best practice recommendations, which are as follows:
- $(i)$ Lay solid foundations for management and oversight;
- $(ii)$ Structure the Board to add value;
- Promote ethical and responsible decision making; $(iii)$
- Safeguard integrity in financial reporting; $(iv)$
- Make timely and balanced disclosure; $(v)$
- Respect the rights of shareholders; $(vi)$
- Recognise and manage risk; $(vii)$
- Encourage enhanced performance; $(viii)$
- $(ix)$ Remunerate fairly and responsibly;
- Recognise the legitimate interests of stakeholders. $(x)$
Genesis Biomedical Limited's corporate governance practices were in place throughout the year ended $30th$ June 2006. As set out below, with the exception of the departures from the ASXCGC recommendations in relation to the independence of the Board, the nomination and audit committee and board performance evaluation, the corporate governance practices of Genesis Biomedical Limited were compliant with the Council's best practice recommendations.
Independence
ASX Corporate Governance Council ("ASXCGC") best practice recommendation 2.1 requires a majority of the Board to be independent directors and 2.2 recommends the chairperson should be an independent director.
ASXCGC provides a definition of independence to include being independent of management and free of any other business relationships that could materially interfere with – or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with - the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgement. In accordance with this definition and further independence guidelines outlined in ASXCGC best practice recommendations, the following Genesis directors are not considered to be independent:
| Name | Position |
|---|---|
| Mr Don Valentino | Managing Director |
| Mr Roger Smith | Non – Executive Director |
Mr Valentino is considered not to be independent by virtue of being employed in an executive capacity within the Company and his material shareholding in the Company. Mr Valentino has been employed by the Company for his extensive experience in the pharmacy and related medical products field.
Mr Smith is considered not to be independent by virtue of his material shareholding in the Company.
The Board acknowledges the best practice requirement to maintain a majority independent board, however believes that given the Company's size and operational status, the expense associated with establishing such a board profile would not at this stage provide any real benefit to the operation of the Company. This Board structure will be reviewed at the appropriate stages of the Company's development.
When assessing the independence of directors, the ASX recommendations refer to materiality thresholds throughout the independence criteria, specifically in reference to evaluating what may constitute a material relationship.
The Board has adopted the following quantitative thresholds to be used as a guide when considering amounts in context of determining the materiality of certain relationships:
- $(i)$ an amount which is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount may be presumed to be material unless there is evidence or convincing argument to the contrary;
- $(ii)$ an amount which is equal to or less than 5% of the appropriate base amount may be presumed not to be material, unless there is evidence, or convincing argument to the contrary;
As part of discharging its obligations as directors of the Company, the Directors will, from time to time need to seek independent professional advice at the expense of the Company. Accordingly, the board has agreed that where issues or matters arise in relation to the running of the Company, that in the opinion of the directors require independent professional advice to assist in the decision making surrounding the resolution of these issues, the board may engage such professional advice providing it is on standard commercial terms for advice of its nature.
Nomination Committee
ASX Corporate Governance Council ("ASXCGC") best practice recommendation 2.4 recommends the Board should establish a nomination committee.
The Board has not established any such committees at this point in the consolidated entity's development, it is considered that the size of the Board along with the level of activity of the Company renders this impractical and the full Board considers in detail all of the matters for which the directors are responsible.

Audit Committee
ASX Corporate Governance Council ("ASXCGC") best practice recommendation 4.2 recommends the Board should establish an audit committee, 4.3 outlines the recommended structure of the audit committee and 4.4 recommends the audit committee should have a formal charter.
The Board has not established any such committees at this point in the consolidated entity's development, it is considered that the size of the Board along with the level of activity of the Company renders this impractical and the full Board considers in detail all of the matters for which the directors are responsible. Although there is no Audit Committee, formal meetings are held between nominated directors and the external auditor, to discuss the findings of the half year review and the year end audit.
Board Performance Evaluation
ASX Corporate Governance Council ("ASXCGC") best practice recommendation 8.1 requires the disclosure of the process for performance evaluation of the board, its committees and individual directors, and key executives. Given the current size of the Genesis Board and level of activity of the Company, the Board does not currently have a formal process for the evaluation of individual Directors and would consider the implementation of one at this particular point as impractical The Directors do consider and gauge the overall performance of the Board in context of the trading price of its shares on the ASX on a regular basis.
Remuneration Committee
ASX Corporate Governance Council ("ASXCGC") best practice recommendation 9.2 recommends the Board should establish a remuneration committee.
Throughout the financial year the Board had not established any such committees as at this point in the consolidated entity's development, it was considered that the size of the Board along with the level of activity of the Company renders this impractical and the full Board considers in detail all of the matters for which the directors are responsible. Remuneration to the Non Executive Directors was by way of base Directors Fees only, with the level of such fees, having been set by the Board to an amount it considers to be commensurate for a company of Genesis's size and level of activity. There is currently no link between performance and remuneration. Further there are no schemes for retirement benefits in existence.
