Operational Highlights
-
Funded and completed Budapest acquisition ($700k + costs)
-
Preparation for manufacture and sales of BP+ and SpiroSonic devices worldwide
-
Budapest integrated and profitable since acquisition
-
Established wholly owned UK subsidiary Uscom Medical Limited in London
-
Growing global distribution for USCOM 1A, BP+ and SpiroSonic
-
Partnership discussions on going
During the 2016 half year USCOM 1A sales have continued to grow worldwide. Uscom also fully funded the cash acquisition of the Budapest business and the associated one off costs by way of a successful capital raising in July 2015. Uscom has also been focused on preparing the Uscom BP+ for market, and the rebranding and remarketing of the SpiroSonic range of digital ultrasonic spirometers for worldwide markets. The Uscom range of cardiovascular and pulmonary products will provide the revenue foundations for Uscom for the next decade. The Uscom Budapest manufacturing operation is also being expanded to meet the anticipated increasing demand as Uscom transition from a single product company to a 9 product globally diversified medical device company.
Operating expenses were increased as the Budapest operations were integrated into the Uscom accounts, and the one of costs associated with preparation of the BP+ and SpiroSonic devices for market were continued. Wages and salaries were also increased as a result of the acquisition, and with appointment of additional marketing resources, resulted in a net loss for the half of $0.8m
The Company holds $1.07m in cash and expects a $366,831 R&D expenditure refund early in 2016.
Executive Chairman of Uscom, Associate Professor Rob Phillips said, “ We have continued to grow our business and invest in advanced health technologies with critical global markets which will ensure reliable revenue streams for investors for the coming decades. Our current growth represents increasing sales from our flagship USCOM 1A cardiac monitor. We have acquired and integrated two medical technology companies in the last three years and are now preparing two new product lines, the Uscom BP+ and SpiroSonic ranges, for market. As our acquisition and product development costs are already accounted for, any sales from these new products should contribute directly to profitability. We also anticipate no increase in costs as one off spends associated with new product preparation and the Budapest acquisition are completed. We are also continuing to expand our distribution network off the back of these newly developed product suites to further build revenue momentum.”
Uscom manufactures and markets the USCOM 1A, the Uscom BP+, and Uscom SpiroSonic digital ultrasonic spirometry technologies. These premium digital devices are changing the way we diagnose and treat cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, including hypertension, heart failure, asthma, COPD and sleep disorders. The products are integral for optimising management of sepsis and guidance of fluid, inotropes and vasoactive therapies in critical care monitoring, and in clinical and home care delivered asthma and COPD medications.

Selected Explanatory Notes to the Financial Statements For the half year ended 31 December 2015
Note 1 – Statement of significant accounting policies
The half-year consolidated financial report was approved by the Board of Directors on 23 February 2016. This half-year consolidated financial report has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 and is to be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2015. This is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB134 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’.
The half-year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report.
Accordingly, it is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2015 and any public announcements made by Uscom Limited during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.
The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these accounting standards and interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity. Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Accounting Standards include Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the Consolidated Entity financial report conforms with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Change of accounting policy in accounting policy for refundable R&D tax incentives
Uscom previously accounted for refundable R&D tax incentives as an income tax benefit. The entity has determined that these incentives are more akin to government grants because they are not conditional upon earning taxable income. The entity has therefore made a voluntary change in accounting policy during the reporting period. Refundable tax incentives are now accounted for as government grants under AASB 120 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance because the directors consider this policy to provide more relevant information to meet the economic decision-making needs of users, and to make the financial statements more reliable.
This change has been applied to the 2014 comparative numbers:

Interim Financial Report
Going Concern
The consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $837,128 (2014: $391,307) and incurred operating cash outflows of $828,576 (2014: $552,190) during the period ended 31 December 2015, and had $1,068,825 cash on hand as at 31 December 2015.
The consolidated entity's forecasts and projections for the next twelve months take account of the current operational status and future trading performance and indicate that in the directors' opinion the consolidated entity will be able to operate as a going concern.
Management is confident of success with the current strategy of expanding and growing distribution. However, the timing of revenue and sales volumes expected from current and new operations may vary from those forecast by management, and this may generate material uncertainty as to the timing of operating cash flows. Should the timing of cash flows be significantly different to those forecasts the consolidated entity may need to seek alternative financing options to enable it to settle its liabilities as they fall due.
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Directors are satisfied that adequate plans and strategies have been formulated and will be adopted as required to allow the consolidated entity to have sufficient cash to meet its obligations through to February 2017 (12 months from date on review report). On this basis the financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
To the members of Uscom Limited and its controlled entities
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Uscom Limited and its controlled entities which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year 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 is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, 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 consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of Uscom Limited and its controlled entities, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
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.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of Uscom Limited and its controlled entities, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Uscom Limited and its controlled entities is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2015 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
(b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001
Emphasis of matter
Without modifying our conclusion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the half-year financial report, which indicates that the consolidated entity incurred a net loss after tax of $837,128 and incurred net operating cash outflows of $828,576 for the half year ended 31 December 2015.
These conditions, along with other matters as set out in Note 1, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the consolidated entity may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
