10Basis of preparation of half-year report

 

This condensed consolidated interim financial report for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2018 have been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting.

 

These interim report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018 and any public announcements made by Immuron.

 

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period and the adoption of the new and amended standards as set out below.

 

(i)Compliance with IFRS

 

The consolidated financial statements of Immuron Limited also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

 

(a)New and amended standards adopted by the Company

 

A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period and the Company had to change its accounting policies and applying the modified retrospective method where required as a result of adopting the following standards:

 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments, and

 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The impact of the adoption of these standards and the new accounting policies are disclosed in note below. The other standards did not have any impact on the Company’s accounting policies and did not require retrospective adjustments.

 

(b)Impact of new and amended standards adopted by the Company

 

(i)AASB 9 Financial Instruments

 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments replaces AASB 139 Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement requirements. It makes major changes to the previous guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets and introduces an ‘expected credit loss’ model for impairment of financial assets.

 

While this represents significant new guidance, the implementation of the new guidance did not have a material impact on trade receivables. As such, the Company has elected not to restate prior periods and have not recognised differences in opening retained earnings as at 1 July 2018.

 

(ii)AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

The Company has adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 July 2018 which did not result in changes in the accounting policies and adjustments to the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

10Basis of preparation of half-year report (continued)

 

(c)Impact of standards issued but not yet applied by the entity

 

(i)AASB 16 Leases

 

AASB 16 was issued in February 2016. It will result in almost all leases being recognised on the balance sheet, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases.

 

The standard will affect primarily the accounting for the group’s operating leases. As at the reporting date, the group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of $39,525. However, the group has not yet determined to what extent these commitments will result in the recognition of an asset and a liability for future payments and how this will affect the group’s profit and classification of cash flows.

 

The standard is mandatory for first interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The Company does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date.

 

(d)Changes in accounting policies

 

(I)AASB 9 Financial Instruments – Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

 

Impairment of financial assets

 

For trade receivables under AASB 9 the Company applies a simplified approach of recognising lifetime expected credit losses as these items do not have a significant financing component.

 

(II)AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

Revenue is earned from the sale of Travelan and Protectyn.

 

The Company ’s revenue from contracts with customers arise from the sale of goods within Australia, USA and other world markets, through a variety of avenues including pharmacies, clinics and the internet.

 

Based on the Company’s revenue recognition process and the nature of the Company’s revenue stream from contracts with customers, the Company recognises revenue at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied upon the delivery of goods to customers.

 

11Summary of significant accounting policies

 

(a)Going concern

 

Some of the risks inherent in the development of pharmaceutical products include the uncertainty of patent protection and proprietary rights, whether patent applications and issued patents will offer adequate protection to enable product development or may infringe intellectual property rights of other parties, and obtaining the necessary drug clinical regulatory authority approvals. Furthermore, a particular project may fail the research and the clinical development process through lack of efficacy or safety, or may be stopped or abandoned due to strategic imperatives including an assessment that the projects will not deliver a sufficient return on investment or have been superseded by newer competitive products or technologies. There is a risk that the Company will be unable to find suitable development or commercial partners for its projects, and that these arrangements may not generate a material return for the Company.

 

Based on current budget forecast assumptions, the Company is in a position to meet future commitments in the current business cycle and pay its debts as and when they fall due. Furthermore, the Company is able to progress its research and development programs for at least the next 12 months.

 

The interim financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. Accordingly, the interim financial report does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.
