ANNUAL REPORT OF DIRECTORS

On behalf of your directors I have pleasure in presenting the Annual Report for Promisia Integrative

Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) for the year ended 31 December 2016.

Promisia Integrative Group Results

Revenues from sales of Arthrem

®

were $2,664,806 in the fiscal year 2016, representing a 553%

improvement on the $408,000 recorded in the previous year.

The Group incurred a loss of $459,000, including non-cash expenses of $80,000 and interest

expenses of $55,000, for the year ended 31 December 2016 (2015: $946,000 loss).

Highlights from 2016

Revenue growth of over 500%

Arthrem

®

sales increased significantly throughout the year. According to an independent report from

RPM pharmacy retail, Arthrem

®

is now the top selling product, by dollar value. Arthrem

®

is now

available from most New Zealand pharmacies.

Trading result

The loss for the year was below budget and reflected a loss of $366,000 in the first half of the year

compared with a loss of $93,000 in the second half. In the second half the loss was only $66,000,

before non-cash expenses. The directors consider this to be very satisfactory outcome, especially

when compared with the loss of $946,000 in 2015.

Successful Rights Issue

In December 2016 Promisia raised $1,433,331 through a successful rights issue. The issue was

oversubscribed by $1,244,219. The primary use of these funds will be the launch the joint supplement

for dogs in New Zealand and the launch of Arthrem

®

in Australia. The other main use of the funds

will be as working capital to finance all stages of the supply chain to service continued sales growth.

Outlook for 2017

The company had achieved its target market share for 2017 by the end of 2016. The current year has

started well with sales in January and February well ahead of the same months in 2016. In New

Zealand the company intends to build on a successful 2016 for Arthrem

®

. Some competition can be

expected in view of the success of Arthrem

®

and the company will take appropriate action to support

existing market share and grow the overall size of the local market.

In late 2016 the company changed marketing representation and as of 1 February 2017 has

implemented a small price increase to recover increased direct costs. The company has taken over

order fulfilment and operates a small warehouse and dispatch service to pharmacies and pharmacy

wholesalers.

Australia

The company is going through the registration process to list Arthrem

®

as a complementary medicine

in Australia with the Therapeutic Goods Administration. The process is taking longer than expected

and in the meantime work is underway to prepare for a launch in selected areas.

Joint supplement for dogs

Manufacturing trials are ongoing to perfect the formulation and maximise acceptance and palatability

by dogs. Marketing and distribution plans are also under development and the company expects to

launch the product in the second quarter of 2017.



5

Research

As noted in the half year announcement the research programme has been focused on the finalisation

of a formulation for the joint supplement for dogs. Research into other products is ongoing.

Chief Executive

As of the end of March 2017 the company’s Chief Executive, Mr Charles Daily, resigned his position

after four years with the company. The directors thank Mr Daily for his contribution to the company

during that period. The directors will now begin the process of recruiting a new Chief Executive.

Priorities for 2017

The priorities for 2017 are:

 Building Arthrem

®

sales in New Zealand

 The launch of Arthrem

®

in Australia, and

 The launch of the joint supplement for dogs in New Zealand and, possibly, in Australia.

The company will face the usual challenges of launching new products into new markets but the

directors and staff are committed to building on the successes of 2016.

On behalf of the directors and management we thank shareholders for their support of the company,

particularly those who participated in the cash issue in late 2016.

7

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

A key responsibility of the Board is to formulate the Company’s strategic direction. In addition, the

Board must have oversight of the financial and operational controls of the business including its risk

management policies and strategies.


The Board also has responsibility for fostering corporate culture, the appointment and remuneration

of its senior executives, the adoption of corporate policies and plans and the approval of major

transactions.


Selection and Role of Chairman

The Chairman is selected by the Board from the non-executive directors. The Chairman’s role is to

manage the Board in an effective manner and provide leadership in the conduct of the Board’s

business and to facilitate the Board’s interaction with the Company’s CEO.


Board Membership

The Board consists currently of two independent directors and one non-independent director as

defined under NZX Rules. All three directors are non-executive directors and were appointed by the

Board and have been confirmed in the role by shareholders at a duly constituted meeting. Their

selection has been based on the value they bring to the Board table including their skills, commercial

experience, strategic thinking ability and general business acumen.

As at 31 December 2016 the Board was as follows:

Stephen Underwood Chairman and Non-Executive Director

Duncan Priest Non-executive Director

Thomas Brankin Non-executive Director

Malcolm Johnson Former Chairman and Non-Executive Director - resigned 3 June

2016

Brief profiles of the current board members are detailed on page 7 of this report.

Director Independence

In order for a director to be independent, the Board has determined that he or she must not be an

executive of Promisia Integrative and must have no disqualifying relationship. The Board follows the

guidelines of the NZX Listing Rules.

The Board has determined that Duncan Priest and Stephen Underwood are independent directors.

Thomas Brankin and associated interests hold a 9.29% shareholding in Promisia Integrative Limited.

He is therefore not independent.


Nomination and Appointment of Directors

The Board is responsible for identifying suitable director candidates for consideration by the Board.

Directors may also be nominated by shareholders under Listing Rule 3.2.2.

A director may be appointed by an ordinary resolution of shareholders and all directors are subject to

removal by ordinary resolution.

The Board may, at any time, appoint additional directors. However, a director shall only hold office

until the next annual meeting of the Company, but shall be eligible for election at that meeting.

One third of directors shall retire from office at the annual meeting each year. The directors to retire

shall be those who have been longest in office since they were last elected or deemed to be elected.

adopted a formal share dealing policy which sets out the procedure to be followed by directors and

effected while that person is in possession of price sensitive information. Details of director and staff

share transactions are outlined on page 39.


Indemnification and Insurance of Directors and Officers

The Company holds Directors and Officers liability insurance.


BOARD COMMITTEES

Presently the Board operates only one committee, being the Audit Committee. Matters concerning

nominations to the Board of Directors and remuneration are dealt with by the full Board in keeping

with the size of the Company.

Audit Committee

The role of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in carrying out its responsibilities under the

Companies Act 1993 as it concerns accounting practices, policies and controls relative to the

Company’s financial position and to make appropriate enquiry into any audit of the Company’s

financial statements. This responsibility includes providing the Board with additional assurance about

the quality and reliability of any financial information issued publically by the Company from time to

time. Ultimately the Board as a whole is responsible for the accuracy and relevance of the Company’s

financial statements. The Audit Committee provides additional and more specialised oversight. The

Audit Committee also reviews the operation of internal controls together with the quality and cost of

the external audit undertaken by the Company’s auditors.

The Audit Committee comprises two non-executive directors one whom which has special expertise in

financial matters. The Audit Committee members are Stephen Underwood (Chair) and Duncan Priest.

The Audit Committee met twice during the financial year in addition to corresponding as required

with the external auditor.



9

Remuneration Committee

During the 2016 financial year the full Board dealt with the functions of the Remuneration

Committee. Matters considered related to the remuneration, benefits and terms of employment of

senior executives of the Company, including incentive performance arrangements and the

implementation of a staff share scheme.

Nominations Committee

During the 2016 financial year the full Board dealt with the functions of the Nominations Committee.

Its function is to identify and recommend candidates for the position of director of the Company

taking into account the skills, experience and qualifications necessary to ensure that the Board works

as an effective unit.


REMUNERATION

Remuneration of both directors and Company executives is a responsibility of the Remuneration

Committee, being the full board. Details of director and executive remuneration, including

entitlements, are set out on page 38.

Remuneration of Directors

The amount paid currently to all non-executive directors is $17,000 per annum (other than the

Chairman). The Chairman is paid $49,000 per annum. Under NZX Listing Rule 3.5.2, the Board may

only make a payment to a director upon cessation or retirement from office with shareholder

approval. The Company’s policy is in line with best practice guidelines from the New Zealand Institute

of Directors and no directors are entitled to retirement payments.

Remuneration of Executives and Employees

Executive remuneration consists of a fixed monthly base contracting fee. Share options may be

granted from time to time as an additional incentive. The Group has no employees. During the year a

staff bonus scheme and unpaid share scheme was set up to remunerate contracted executive and staff

for their performance. No other remuneration or benefits, including superannuation and

contributions to Kiwisaver, were paid during the financial year.

Market Disclosure

The Board is committed to the promotion of investor confidence by ensuring that trading of its shares

takes place in an efficient, competitive and informed market.

The Company has in place procedures designed to ensure compliance with the NZX Listing Rules so

that:

 All investors have equal and timely access to material information concerning the Company,

including its financial situation, performance, ownership and governance.

Executive Officer. Significant market announcements, including the preliminary announcement of the

forecast are approved by the Board.

Independent auditor’s report

To the Shareholders of Promisia Integrative Limited

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Promisia Integrative Limited and its

subsidiaries (the Group) on pages 14 to 35, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 31

December 2016 and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and, consolidated statement

of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of

significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material

respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2016, and its consolidated

financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with New

Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand)

(ISAs (NZ)). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘Auditor’s

responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements’ section of our report.

We are independent of the group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 (Revised) ‘Code

of ethics for assurance practitioners’ issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board,

and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis

for our opinion.

Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, Promisia Integrative

Limited or any of its subsidiaries.

Other Information

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the annual

report (but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon).

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do

not express any form of audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the

other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent

with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears

to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a

material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to

report in this regard.



12

o the Shareholders of Promisia Integrative Limited

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our

audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the

context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion

thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter

1. Valuation of inventory


Refer to notes 2.d.(xiii) & 15.


Inventory has been recognised in the consolidated financial

statements with a value of $811,000.


Valuation of inventory is considered a key audit matter due to

the nature and significance of the asset to the group’s

consolidated statement of financial position.


Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable

value after making due allowance for obsolescence and

degradation. Due to the nature of the raw material and

finished inventory product, there is a risk that the carrying

value of the inventory may not be recoverable due to

degradation.


Whether a write down in the inventory value is required

involves judgement. Key judgements are considered in

relation to sale forecasts, current sales performance, sale

prices and inventory ageing.


 We reviewed and questioned management’s

significant assumptions regarding the extent of any

degradation of the raw material and finished

Inventory product.

 We reviewed forecasted sales figures compared with

actual for the current year and the group’s on-going

sales forecasts.

 We performed ratio analysis on both how quickly

inventory is sold and the amount of inventories on

hand relative to cost of sales and we considered

inventory yields and ageing.

 We discussed the key assumptions with the directors

and senior management and obtained written

representations.

 We evaluated the related financial statement note

disclosures.

2. Valuation of intangible assets


Refer to notes 2.d.(xv) & 17.


Intangible Assets has been recognised in the consolidated

financial statements with a value of $127,000.

Intangible assets relate primarily to the website. Judgement is

involved in terms of deciding whether website related

expenditure should be expensed or capitalised as well as

whether there is any impairment in the assets value. For

these reasons, valuation of intangibles is considered a key

audit matter.

Research and Development Costs not meeting the criteria for

capitalisation as required by NZ IAS 38 – Intangible Assets, are

expensed.

At each reporting date the group reviews the carrying

amounts of its intangible assets to determine whether there

is any indication that those assets have suffered an

impairment loss. The cash generating unit identified by the

group to which the Intangible asset is allocated for

impairment testing is the sale of the group’s product -

Arthrem.

The impairment assessment requires judgement. The key

judgement is considered to be in relation to sales forecasts

and sale history. The intangible assets are also amortised over

a 3 – 5 year period.

 We reviewed all significant supplier invoices relating

to website expenditure and assessed the accounting

treatment in accordance with NZIAS 38.

 We requested and reviewed the reasonableness of the

assumptions in the group’s impairment assessment.

 We assessed the group’s earnings forecasts with

reference to actual historical earnings and post

balance date earnings.

 We considered the appropriateness of the

amortisation provision.

 We questioned the directors’ assumptions used in the

company’s impairment model on intangibles,

described in note 2.d (xv) to the consolidated

financial statements. We verified the reliability of the

information on which the expectations have been

based and assessed the reasonableness, relevance and

consistency of the assumptions applied.

 We evaluated the related financial statement note

disclosures.



13

ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory

information.

Director’s responsibility for the consolidated financial statements

Director’s responsibilities for the consolidated financial statements

The directors are responsible on behalf of the group for the preparation and fair presentation of

the financial statements in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards (NZ IFRS), and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the

preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or

error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible on behalf of the group for assessing

the group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going

concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate

the group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements

as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s

report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee

that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (NZ) will always detect a material misstatement when it

exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the

aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the decisions of users taken on the basis of

these consolidated financial statements.

A further description of the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial

statements is located at the XRB’s website at

https://xrb.govt.nz/Site/Auditing_Assurance_Standards/Current_Standards/Page1.aspx

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Miecio (Mitch)

Czudaj.

This report is made solely to the shareholders of the group. Our audit has been undertaken so that we

might state to the shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors’ report and

for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to

anyone other than the shareholders, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have

formed.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General Information

The financial statements presented are those of Promisia Integrative Limited (the company) and its

subsidiaries (the group). The Group’s principal activities are focused on developing and marketing

unique therapeutic natural products with proven safety and efficacy based on robust scientific

research.

The company is registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is a Financial Markets Conduct 2013

reporting entity in terms of the Financial Reporting Act 2013. The group is profit-oriented.

Promisia Integrative Limited is a company domiciled and incorporated in New Zealand. The

registered office of the company is Level 15, 171 Featherston Street, Wellington.

2. Statement of Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting

practice in New Zealand, which is the New Zealand equivalent to International Financial Reporting

Standards (NZIFRS). They also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

The financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars which is the group’s functional and

presentation currency and rounded to the nearest thousand dollars unless stated otherwise.

(b) Going concern

The Promisia Group has generated sales of $2,665,000 during the year ended 31 December 2016

(2015:$408,000) and at year end, the balance sheet records a position of positive equity.

It is the continuing opinion of the board of directors that there are reasonable grounds to believe that

operational and financial plans in place are achievable and accordingly the group is able to continue as

a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due. Accordingly, use of the going concern

assumption remains appropriate in these circumstances.

In arriving at this position the directors have considered the following pertinent matters:

1. One of the directors has signed a letter of support stating that he will not, for a 12-month

period, make demand on the company for amounts owed to him in the form of outstanding

directors’ fees, expenses and advances.

2. The directors are continuously assessing new options in the Group and together with the

initiatives undertaken in 2015 and 2016 , this will assist the Company in its next phase of growth

with the development and commercialisation of its products.

3. The loan from Wells Investments Ltd – see note 20.

(c) Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with NZIFRS requires the use of certain

critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of

applying the Group’s accounting policies. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are

based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are

believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Group makes estimates and assumptions

about the future. The resulting accounting estimates will by definition seldom equal related actual

results. The estimates and assumptions that have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the

carrying value of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:



19

Share based payments

The significant estimates and assumptions involved in measuring the cost of equity settled

transactions with directors and management (note 7.5).

Impairment of intangible assets

Intangible assets are amortised and are tested for impairment when events or changes in

circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable (note 17).

(d) Specific accounting policies

The following specific accounting policies which materially affect the measurement of profit and the

financial position have been applied.

(i) Basis of consolidation — purchase method

The consolidated financial statements include the company and its subsidiaries accounted for using the

purchase method. All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

(ii) Statement of Cash flows

For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with

banks, and investments in money market instruments, net of bank overdrafts.

(iii) Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised in the functional currency of the relevant

operating unit. At balance date, foreign monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate,

and exchange variations arising from these translations are recognised in the income statement. The

assets and liabilities of foreign operations, whose functional currency is not the New Zealand dollar, are

translated at the closing rate. Revenue and expense items are translated at the spot rate at the

transaction date or a rate approximating that rate. Foreign currency exchange differences are

recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve.

(iv) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

The statement of comprehensive income and statement of cash flows have been prepared exclusive of

GST. All items in the balance sheet are stated net of GST with the exception of receivables and payables

which include GST invoiced.

(v) Revenue

Revenue on sales of goods is recognized when they are delivered and ready for use by the customer and

recorded at net of discounts allowed.

(vi) Government Grants

Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received

and all attached conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is

recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is

intended to compensate, are expensed. These grants are deducted in reporting the related expenses.

When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as income in equal amounts over the expected useful

life of the related asset.

(vii) Taxation

The income tax expense charged to the statement of comprehensive income includes both the current

year’s provision and the income tax effect of (i) Taxable temporary differences, except those arising

from initial recognition of goodwill and other assets that are not depreciated; and (ii) Deductible

temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that they will be utilised. Temporary differences

arising from transactions, other than business combinations, affecting neither accounting profit nor

taxable profit are ignored.



20

Tax effect accounting is applied on a comprehensive basis to all timing differences. A deferred tax asset

is only recognised to the extent that it is probable there will be future taxable profit to utilise the

temporary differences.

(viii) Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Direct costs of issuing shares are shown as a deduction from

the proceeds of the issue. Where share options issued have expired then share capital includes an

adjustment for the expired share option cost as transferred from the option reserve.

(ix) Share based payments

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with directors and management by

reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating

fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate

valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also

requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected

life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The

assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are

disclosed in Note 7.5.

All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a

corresponding credit to share option reserve. If vesting periods or other vesting conditions apply, the

expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of

share options expected to vest.

Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs

are allocated to share capital.

(x) Financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents,

loans and advances to others, trade and other payables and term borrowings. They are all classified as

loans and receivables and are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable

transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using

the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying

value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables

approximates their fair value.

A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the

instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from

the financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial asset to another party without

retaining control or substantively all risks and rewards of the asset. Financial liabilities are

derecognised if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on

demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of

cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows.

The Group does not have any derivative financial instruments or any other financial assets or

liabilities that are classified as instruments at fair value through profit and loss under NZ IFRS.

(xi) Receivables and payables

Receivables and payables are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost

using the effective interest method. Due allowance is made for impaired receivables (doubtful debts).



21

(xii) Employee entitlements

There are no liabilities for annual leave, sick leave and long-service leave as the Group currently has no

employees.

(xiii) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in first-out basis, and net realisable

value after making any allowance for obsolescence or degradation. In particular, certain inventory

which is older than 6 years, is discounted by 30%. The cost of work in progress and finished goods

includes the cost to purchase the inventory and transport it to its current location.

(xiv) Investments

Investments are valued at the lower of cost and market value. Where in the opinion of the directors

there has been a permanent diminution in the value of investments this has been recognized in the

current period. Shares in unlisted companies cannot be valued reliably. They are therefore carried at

cost less any impairment losses. Should any impairment losses be suffered they will not be reversed

even if the circumstances leading to the impairment are resolved.

(xv) Intangible Assets

Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and

install the specific software. Costs that are associated directly with the development of software are

recognised as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:

For external and internally developed software - expenditure on the research phase of a project to

develop new customised software for e-commerce platforms is recognised as an expense as incurred.

Costs that are directly attributable to a project’s development phase are recognised as intangible

assets, provided they meet the following recognition requirements: (i) the development costs can be

measured reliably (ii) the project is technically and commercially feasible (iii) the Group intends to

and has sufficient resources to complete the project (iv) the Group has the ability to use or sell the

software (v) the software will generate probable future economic benefits.

Development costs not meeting these criteria for capitalisation are expensed as incurred.

The useful lives of the Group’s intangible assets are assessed to be finite. Assets with finite lives are

amortised over their useful lives and tested for impairment whenever there are indications that the

assets may be impaired.

Amortisation is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the

estimated useful life of the intangible asset of 3 to 5 years, from the date it is available for use.

(xvi) Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost. When an item of property, plant and equipment is

disposed of any gain or loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income income statement

and calculated as the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the item.

Depreciation is provided for on a diminishing value basis on all plant and equipment at depreciation

rates calculated to allocate the assets’ cost or valuation less estimated residual value over their

estimated useful lives.

Major depreciation periods are plant and equipment 5 to 15 years.

Assets are fully written off when no longer in use by the Group.

(xvii) Impairment

At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to

determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any

such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent

of the impairment loss (if any).



22

Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying

amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or

loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is

treated as a revaluation decrease.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, other than for goodwill, the carrying amount of the

asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the

increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had

no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is

recognised in the statement of comprehensive income immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried

at fair value, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

(xviii) Changes in accounting policies

There have been no changes to the accounting policies for the year ended 31 December 2016.

Adoption status of relevant new financial reporting standards and interpretations:

(i) There are no new standards or amendments to standards applicable to the Group for the year

ended 31 December 2016.

(ii) A number of new standards and amendments to standards became effective for early adoption for

annual periods beginning after 1 January 2016. However, the Group has not early adopted these

standards and is yet to assess their impact. The standards relevant to the Group are as follows: NZ

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (effective 1 January 2018) and NZIFRS 15- Revenue from Contracts

with Customers (effective 1 January 2018) NZ IFRS 16: Leases (Effective for periods beginning on

or after 1 January 2019).

The Group has $3,551,460 (2015: $3,140,986) of New Zealand domiciled entity tax losses

accumulated from previous years. The current tax losses and 49% shareholder continuity are subject

to IRD approval. To offset these tax losses against future taxable income, a 49% continuity of ultimate

shareholders must own the Company’s shares from beginning of the year of the loss to the end of the

year of offset. The company met this condition at 31 December 2016. These tax losses will be

recognised as an asset at the time that it is considered probable that future taxable profits are

available to offset these tax losses.

There are no imputation credits available to shareholders (2015: $nil).


7. Share Capital

The Group’s share capital includes fully paid, subscribed and treasury shares. All fully paid shares

carry full and equal voting rights and share equally in distributions. The shares have no par value.

such cessation occurs as a result of a change in control of the company, with a change in control being

where a shareholder or group of associated shareholders become entitled to sufficient shares in the

company to give it or them the ability to replace all or a majority of the board of the company) the

relevant outstanding options of option holder shall be forfeited and all rights and/or benefits in

relation to those options shall also be forfeited after a period of 30 days from the date of cessation of

holding office, employment and/ or consulting as the case may be.

7.5 Share based payments & options granted

During the year the share based payment expense recognised for options granted by the company

amounted to $42,707 (2015 $42,707.) See note 11 for further details.

The fair value of the services rendered in exchange for the grant of the options are recognised as an

expense and the amount expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted.

There are no market or non-market performance conditions attached to the options granted.

When the options are exercised, the company issues new shares and the proceeds received net of any

directly attributable transaction costs are credited to the share capital and share premium accounts.

The fair value of the share options is estimated at the grant date using the Black - Scholes option

pricing model taking account the terms and conditions upon which the share options were granted.

The volatility was measured based on a statistical analysis of share prices over the last year and a

comparison of volatilities to other similar operating companies.

The inputs into the share option pricing model are as follows:

Options granted Issue 1 Issue 2

Grant date 24 April 2013 1 Sept 2014

(f) Staff Unpaid Share Scheme (“scheme”)

The company has established a staff unpaid share scheme which offers eligible employed and

contracted staff (‘‘staff”) an entitlement to purchase unpaid shares in the company at a specified

price on a one-off basis, with no assurance being given that any entitlement will arise in future

years. The continued operation of the scheme and any further entitlements will be at the sole

discretion of the company directors. Terms and conditions of the offer are as follows:

During the year (i) 27,043,986 unpaid shares were purchased unpaid by Promisia Trustee

Limited, the company’s “nominee” company (ii) offered to eligible staff at an issue price of

$0.16 cents per share.

The unpaid shares will be allocated to staff on acceptance of an offer to them and held on their

behalf by the nominee company. No payment is required immediately for the unpaid shares

issued until they have been vested and called on by the company. Fully or partly paid shares

allocated to staff will rank equally or on a proportionate basis to all other shares issued by the

Company.

The company has also set up a bonus scheme for staff with bonuses being paid to staff net of tax

based on achieving agreed sales and other targets as set by the board on an annual basis for the

financial years ending 31 December 2016 and 31 December 2017.

Fair value measurement

The Group does not have any derivative financial instruments or any other financial assets or

liabilities that are classified as instruments at fair value through profit and loss under NZ IFRS.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying value.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that interest rates will change, increasing or decreasing the cost of

borrowing or lending. The holding company’s long term loans are at fixed interest rates. The interest

payable on the loan is fixed and set over a range from 5% to 6.5% per annum from over the term of

the loan- see note 20.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that an outside party will not be able to meet its obligations to the holding

company or group. Financial assets which will potentially subject the Group to concentrations of

credit risk consist principally of cash and receivables. The cash is placed with high credit quality

financial institutions with a minimum short term Standard and Poor’s credit rating of A-1. In the

normal course of its business, the Group incurs credit risk from receivables and transactions with

financial institutions. The maximum credit risk is the carrying amounts of receivables of $258,000

which have an ageing duration of less than 6 months and no defaults - (2015 $97,000).

The Group does not require any collateral or security to support financial instruments as it only

deposits with, or loans to, banks and other financial institutions with high credit ratings. The Group

does not expect the non-performance of any obligations at balance date.

Currency Risk

Exposure to currency risk arises in the normal course of the Group’s business. The Group monitors

exchange rate movements in foreign currencies and will take any action necessary to reduce currency

risks where possible.

Liquidity Risk

The Group manages its liquidity risk by maintaining availability of sufficient cash and funding via

adequate credit and bank facilities. Owing to the nature of the underlying business, the Group aims to

maintain funding flexibility through committed credit lines. The Group manages liquidity risk by

monitoring actual and forecast cash flows on a regular basis and rearranging banking and credit

facilities where appropriate.

The table below analyses the Group’s non derivative financial liabilities into maturity groupings based

on the remaining period from balance date to the contractual maturity date if applicable. The amounts

disclosed are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

24. Segmental Reporting

The Group primarily derives its revenue from the sale of one product, with all revenue and assets

accounted for in New Zealand. The Group has a wide range of customers with no single customer

contributing more than 10% of the Group’s revenue. It only has one operating segment which has

been determined and based on financial information that is regularly reviewed by senior

management.

NZ IFRS 8 Operating Segments: permits the aggregation of operating segments into reportable

segments. This has been adopted as the Group has only one operating segment with similar economic

characteristics being the production processes, customers and distribution channels for its product.

Based on this analysis, no additional disclosure is required in the annual financial statements as the

Group has one reportable segment.

26. Capital Management

For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes issued capital and all other

equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. Net debt includes borrowings less bank

funds.

The group’s capital management objectives are to safeguard the group's ability to continue as a going

concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to

maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The Group is maintaining its capital base by prudent spending on operations, research and

development in order to generate new revenue streams and sales activity in the Australia and USA.

The directors anticipate being able to raise additional equity funds as and when required.


The amount of capital, cash and net debt that the Group has for the year is summarised as follows:

27. Prior Period Adjustment

In the 2015 reporting year, an amount of $38,105, capitalised to Intangible Assets in the 2014 year,

was re classified as an expense rather than a capital payment. This has been effected by offset against

capital payments in the 2015 year of $50,827 to increase the Intangible Assets in 2015 by the net

amount of $12,722 only. NZ IAS 8 (Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and

Errors) requires such changes to be recorded as prior period adjustments, with the 2014 year’s figures

being re-stated to reflect the change in the correct year. However, the directors considered that a prior

period adjustment was not necessary as it was not material to the financial statements taken as a

whole and it would not have influenced the user’s economic decisions. The directors consider that, in

the surrounding circumstances, the interests of the users of these financial statements are adequately

protected by way of this explanatory note disclosure.

28. Contingent Liabilities

There were no contingent liabilities at year end (2015:$nil).

29. Capital Commitments

There are no capital commitments 31 December 2016 (2015: $nil).

30. Auditor’s Remuneration

Audit fees of $31,500 (2015 $27,000) were paid for the audit of the financial statements only. No

other services were provided.
