SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
The following table presents our selected historical consolidated financial data as of the dates and for each of the periods indicated. The information set forth below is not necessarily indicative of future results and should be read in conjunction with “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and our historical audited consolidated financial statements, which are included elsewhere herein.
We adopted Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“A-IFRS”) for the first time in our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2006, which included comparative financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005. AASB 1 “First-time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards” (“AASB 1”) requires that an entity develop accounting policies based on the standards and related interpretations effective at the reporting date of its first annual A-IFRS financial statements (e.g., June 30, 2006). AASB 1 also requires that those policies be applied as of the date of transition to A-IFRS (e.g., July 1, 2004) and throughout all periods presented in the first A-IFRS financial statements. An explanation of how the transition from superseded policies to A-IFRS has affected our financial position, financial performance and cash flows is discussed in Note 28 to the audited consolidated financial statements.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted a one-time accommodation that permits eligible foreign private issuers, such as our company, to present two years rather than three years of statements of operations, changes in equity and cash flow statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for their first year of reporting under IFRS. Our first annual consolidated financial statements prepared under A-IFRS (which is compliant with IFRS) are for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and this Form 6-K has been prepared in reliance on such SEC accommodation.
The selected consolidated financial data as of and for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere herein.
A-IFRS differ in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Please refer to Note 29 to the audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein for a description of the differences between A-IFRS and U.S. GAAP as they relate to us, and a reconciliation of net loss and total equity to U.S. GAAP for the periods and as of the dates indicated.

Background
pSivida Limited, or pSivida, together with its subsidiaries, referred to as the "Company", is incorporated in Perth, Australia. We are a global bio-nanotech company committed to the biomedical sector and the development of drug delivery products. Our core focus is the development and commercialization of products based on our Durasert™, BioSilicon™ and Codrug™ technologies.
The DurasertTM technology, obtained as part of the acquisition of CDS, uses a drug core with one or more surrounding polymer layers. The drug permeates through the polymers into the body at a controlled and pre-determined rate for extended periods of time. Two products - Vitrasert™ and Retisert™ - are FDA approved and licensed to Bausch & Lomb, and a third product candidate, Medidur™ is in phase III trials with our collaboration partner, Alimera Sciences. |
BioSilicon™, which uses nanostructured elemental silicon, has been shown to be biodegradable and biocompatible. BrachySil™, a targeted oncology product which comprises a combination of BioSilicon™ and the isotope 32Phosphorus, a proven anti-cancer therapeutic, is in phase II clinical trials for the treatment of primary liver cancer and pancreatic cancer. BioSilicon offers multiple other potential applications across the healthcare sector, including controlled slow release drug delivery, tissue engineering and orthopedics. |
CoDrug™ allows for the simultaneous release of two or more drugs at a controlled rate from the same product. A library of CoDrug™ compounds has been synthesized and Phase I clinical trials have been undertaken for post-surgical and two dermatological indications. |
On May 18, 2001, the Company re-listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX Code: PSD). Our shares are also listed in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on the XETRA system (German Symbol: PSI. Securities Code (WKN) 358705), in the United Kingdom on the OFEX International Market Service (IMS) under the ticker symbol PSD and on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol PSDV.
A. OPERATING RESULTS
As a result of the acquisition of pSivida, Inc. in December 2005 (formerly Control Delivery Systems, Inc., or CDS), there was a significant shift in both revenues and expenses from Australian dollars to US dollars. As a result, the majority of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are now denominated in US dollars and to a lesser extent, in Australian dollars and Pounds Sterling.
Overview
In September 2005, we raised approximately US$4.3 million (A$5.7 million) of gross proceeds in a private placement structured as a private investment in public equity, commonly known as a PIPE. In the PIPE, we sold 665,000 ADSs to investors at US$6.50 per ADS and issued three-year warrants exercisable for 133,000 ADSs at US$12.50 per ADS.
3
On October 3, 2005, we entered into a merger agreement with CDS, a Boston-based company engaged in the design and development of drug delivery products. The merger agreement provided that a newly-formed subsidiary of pSivida would merge into CDS, with CDS surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of pSivida with the name of pSivida Inc. After approval by the required majorities of both companies’ shareholders and the fulfillment of other closing conditions, the merger was completed on December 30, 2005. Pursuant to the merger, we issued a total of 161,047,790 ordinary shares (represented by 16,104,779 ADSs) consisting of (i) 150,820,380 ordinary shares (represented by 15,082,038 ADSs) in exchange for the outstanding CDS common and preferred shares on the date of the acquisition in accordance with the merger agreement, (ii) 1,211,180 nonvested ordinary shares (represented by 121,118 nonvested ADSs) in connection with CDS employee retention agreements, and (iii) 9,016,230 nonvested ordinary shares (represented by 901,623 nonvested ADSs) in exchange for the nonvested shares of CDS common stock outstanding on the date of the acquisition in accordance with retention agreements between CDS and its officers and employees. As of December 31, 2005, the ADSs received by the former CDS stockholders represented approximately 41.3% of the capital stock of the combined company. Certain former shareholders of CDS received cash rather than ADSs for their CDS shares. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase CDS stock was assumed by us and converted into an option to acquire such number of ADSs as the holder would have been entitled to receive in the merger if such holder had exercised such option in full immediately before completion of the merger. In connection with the merger, we entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the ADSs issued in the merger.
On October 27, 2005, we signed a license with Beijing Med-Pharm Corporation for the clinical development, marketing and distribution of BrachySil in China. Under the terms of the license, we will manufacture BrachySil and Beijing Med-Pharm will be responsible for clinical development, securing regulatory approval, marketing and distribution in China. pSivida will retain manufacturing rights for BrachySil under the license.
On November 16, 2005, we issued a subordinated convertible promissory note in the principal amount of US$15 million (A$20.5 million) to an institutional investor in a private placement. The note bears interest at a rate equal to 8% per year, which we can pay in ADSs instead of cash if certain conditions are met. The note has a term of three years and was initially convertible into ADSs at a conversion price of US$7.10 per ADS, subject to adjustment based upon certain events or circumstances, including, without limitation, the market price of ADSs for the ten trading days ending August 5, 2006, if such price was lower than US$6.57. We also issued a warrant with a term of six years which entitled the institutional investor to purchase up to 633,803 ADSs at US$7.20 per ADS, also subject to adjustment upon specified events. Since the completion of our rights issue on June 14, 2006, the exercise price under the warrant was adjusted to US$7.17 per ADS. We have also entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we have agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the ADSs underlying the note (as well as any ADSs received by the institutional investor as interest under the note) and the warrant, as soon as practicable and to have the registration statement declared effective within 180 days of issuance of the note and warrant. The gross proceeds received by us in the private placement were US$15.0 million, and may increase to approximately US$19.6 million if the warrant is exercised in full in cash. We expect to use these proceeds for the expanded development of BioSilicon™ and for general corporate purposes.
On February 10, 2006, we announced that Bausch & Lomb and Novartis Ophthalmics, a business unit of Novartis Pharmaceutical Corp., had reached an agreement to co-promote Retisert in the United States.
On February 21, 2006, we reported that preliminary data from Bausch & Lomb’s clinical trial of Retisert for the treatment of chronic non-infectious posterior segment uveitis showed a lower recurrence rate in eyes receiving Retisert than in non-implanted eyes. This study involved 278 patients from 27 hospitals in the United States and one in Singapore. The study showed that, at three years, control of uveitis in eyes implanted with Retisert was better than in non-implanted eyes, but was less effective than at two years and that some eyes may need to be re-implanted between 24 and 36 months. In the study, patients received either a 0.59 mg or a 2.1 mg Retisert device. Data presented was the aggregate of the two doses. At three years, the recurrence rate of uveitis was 33% in the eye receiving Retisert compared to 57% of fellow eyes. A greater number of eyes receiving Retisert experienced an improvement in vision of at least 15 letters (three lines on an eye chart) compared to fellow eyes (22% versus 6%). 45% of eyes receiving Retisert required an operation to relieve elevated intraocular pressure and 92% developed a cataract.
On March 17, 2006, we announced that our ADSs had been included in the Nanotechnology.com ‘Small Technology’ Index. Nanotechnology.com is owned by The Nanotech Company, LLC an independent advisory firm specializing in advising nanotechnology companies.
On March 20, 2006, we announced that an independent audit of our Boston, Massachusetts facility performed by a European Qualified Person had resulted in the issuance of a certificate indicating that our product Medidur™ is manufactured to the standard of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) set out in European Union directive 2003/94/EC and the EC Guide to Good Manufacturing Practice.
4
On March 21, 2006, we announced that following a planned interim review, an independent data safety monitoring board, commonly known as a DSMB, had recommended the continuation of the Phase 3 clinical trial being conducted by us and Alimera Sciences involving our product Medidur™.
On April 3, 2006, we reported that randomized safety and efficacy trials conducted by Bausch & Lomb had demonstrated that after two years, 30% of eyes receiving repeat laser treatment, the current standard of care, had a worsening of their diabetic retinopathy compared with only 10% of eyes receiving a Retisert implant. We also reported that Retisert reduced retinal thickening involving the center most part of the macula responsible for sharp, central vision, or fovea, and led to a statistically significant three line improvement in vision compared to the current standard of care. The study involved 277 patients from hospitals in the U.S.
On April 6, 2006, we reported that randomized safety and efficacy trials conducted by Bausch & Lomb had demonstrated that after two years, the recurrence rate for uveitis was significantly lower in eyes receiving Retisert than in eyes receiving systemic corticosteroid or other immunosuppressive agents, the current standard of care. The study involved 146 patients across ten countries in Europe and the Middle East.
On April 6, 2006, we entered into an evaluation agreement with an undisclosed large medical device company to evaluate cardiovascular delivery of drugs using our drug delivery technologies.
On May 25, 2006, we announced that the phase IIb clinical trial for inoperable primary liver cancer for BrachySil had been extended to centers in Vietnam and Malaysia and that we were negotiating an extension to centers in the Philippines and Taiwan. In addition, we announced that the phase IIa clinical trial for the treatment of pancreatic cancer for BrachySil was expected to commence in June 2006 in hospitals in London and Singapore.
On May 30, 2006, we announced that the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency in the UK granted approval for the first human study of BrachySil for the treatment of inoperable pancreatic cancer. This six month phase IIa clinical trial study is expected to involve 15 patients at the Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals in London and Singapore General Hospital, which are leading centers for cancer treatment.
On June 7, 2006, we announced that regulatory agencies in the UK, Canada and India have approved the start of Phase III clinical trials for our product device Medidur™ for use in the treatment of Diabetic Macular Edema (DME).
On June 8, 2006, we announced that our subsidiary AION Diagnostics had discovered that BioSilicon™ can be detected on the following key imaging platforms: x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. This property of BioSilicon™ is expected to allow it to be used in tissue marker, contrast agent products and molecular imaging products currently under development by AION Diagnostics.
On June 14, 2006, we announced that our Non-Renounceable Rights Issue had closed. Proceeds of A$6,309,487, before costs, were raised through the issuance of 10,515,811 new ordinary shares at a price of A$0.60 per share. This represented a subscription of 22% of the total shares available for subscription under the rights issue.
On July 6, 2006, we announced that BioSilicon™ has shown the capability to act as an adjuvant when delivered with an antigen. An adjuvant is any substance that is capable of enhancing a host response towards an active agent and is often used in conjunction with antigens to enhance the immune response of humans and animals. An antigen is any substance capable of eliciting an immune response. A patent application has been filed in the UK for the use of BioSilicon™ as an adjuvant.
On July 28, 2006, we signed an agreement revising the terms of the subordinated convertible promissory note that we issued on November 16, 2005 to an institutional investor. The note continues to have a three year term and bears 8% interest payable quarterly. We may make future interest payments in the form of our NASDAQ-listed ADSs or, at our sole option, we may make such payments in cash. The note is now convertible into ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS, subject to adjustment based upon certain events or circumstances, including, without limitation, if 108% of the market price of ADSs for the ten trading days ending April 30, 2007 is lower than the current conversion price. In connection with the amendment, we prepaid US$2.5 million of the outstanding principal note and agreed to prepay US$1.0 million in related penalties, which were paid on September 14, 2006. The investor retains its existing warrants to purchase 633,803 additional ADSs, exercisable for six years at a current exercise price of US$7.17 per ADS. In connection with the amendments, we agreed with the institutional investor to extend the deadline for the registration statement required by the registration rights agreement with the selling security holder to be declared effective by the SEC through October 15, 2006, with increased penalties if that deadline is missed. The Company’s Registration Statement was declared effective on September 29, 2006. We have also been released from the restrictions on future fundraising transactions contained in the note documentation. We also granted the investor an additional warrant to purchase 5.7 million ADSs exercisable for five years with an exercise price of US$1.80 per ADS and a security interest in our current royalties, subject to release of that security upon any disposition by us of the royalty stream.
5
On July 31, 2006, we announced that Gavin Rezos had resigned for personal and family reasons as Managing Director and CEO of pSivida and its subsidiaries. Mr. Rezos has agreed to make himself available in Australia as we may request his assistance to achieve certain goals pending the appointment of a permanent replacement.
On September 19, 2006, we announced the initiation of a Phase II clinical trial for Mifepristone as an eye drop treatment for steroid associated elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). The trial will involve up to 45 patients in the United States.
On September 26, 2006 the Company closed an agreement with Absolute Europe Catalyst Fund, Absolute Octane Fund and Australian IT Investments Limited to purchase US$6.5 million ($8.5 million) of Subordinated Convertible Debentures convertible into pSivida ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS ($0.27 per ordinary share). The debentures will mature three years from the date of closing and will bear 8% interest payable quarterly in arrears and/or ADSs at an 8% discount to the 10 day volume weighted average closing price (‘VWAP’). The Company has issued to the investors warrants exercisable for a number of ADSs equal to 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding New Notes divided by the conversion price with an exercise price of US$2.00 and a term of five years. The Company may redeem the notes at any time by payment of 108% of the face value and may force conversion when the ADS price remains above US$4.00 for a set period of 25 days.
On October 10, 2006, we announced that the first patient has been implanted with BrachySil™ for the treatment of inoperable pancreatic cancer at Guys and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust Hospital in London, a major centre for cancer therapy in the United Kingdom.
On October 17, 2006, the Company closed an agreement further revising the terms of the subordinated convertible promissory note that was issued on November 16, 2005 to an institutional investor. The Company has been released from the requirement to hold a net cash balance in excess of 30% of the amount of the note outstanding until March 30, 2007. Up to and including March 30, 2007, the net cash balance required to be held by the Company has been reduced to $2,054,513 (US$1,500,000). The Company will be required to make a one-time payment of US$800,000 on December 28, 2006 and three equal payments of US$150,000 on January 31, 2007, February 28, 2007 and March 31, 2007. Following the Company’s Registration Statement being declared effective on September 29, 2006, the Company is permitted 30 days to cure a loss of effectiveness or non-compliance before an event of default under the amended convertible note occurs.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Applicable to pSivida
Australian Pronouncements
The Company has adopted A-IFRS for the first time in its financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2006, which included comparative financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005. Compliance with A-IFRS ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards. AASB 1 “First-time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards” (“AASB 1”) requires that an entity develop accounting policies based on the standards and related interpretations effective at the reporting date of its first annual A-IFRS financial statements (e.g., June 30, 2006). AASB 1 also requires that those policies be applied as of the date of transition to A-IFRS (e.g., July 1, 2004) and throughout all periods presented in the first A-IFRS financial statements. An explanation of how the transition from superseded policies to A-IFRS has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is discussed in Note 28 to the consolidated financial statements.
In applying A-IFRS, we relied on an exception to such accounting standards with respect to the valuation of options issued to employees and directors. Under AASB 2 “Share-based Payment” (“AASB2”), the fair value of share options issued to employees and directors is determined at grant date and expensed over the expected vesting period of the options. Upon transition to A-IFRS, we elected not to retrospectively recognize share based payments that were granted before November 7, 2002 and share based payments granted after November 7, 2002 that vested before January 1, 2005. As a result of this election, we did not apply Black-Scholes to the affected equity. Had we elected to retrospectively recognize the value of this equity, share based payments reserve and accumulated deficit would have increased. This would not have had any effect on the overall total equity of our Company.

Results of Operations For the Year Ended June 30, 2006 Compared to the Year Ended June 30, 2005
Net Loss
For reasons described further below, our net loss increased to A$28,166,129 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$16,793,836 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$11,372,293, or 67.7%. The majority of the increase in net loss in the 2006 period versus the 2005 period is primarily attributable to the acquisition transaction and the inclusion of pSivida Inc. (formerly CDS) from December 30, 2005 and those costs associated with the commencement of the BrachySilTM primary live cancer Phase IIb dose profiling study which commenced in October 2005.
Revenue
Revenue increased to A$1,393,000 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$161,666 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$1,231,334 or 761.7%. The increase in revenue is attributable to A$1,324,069 of royalty and collaborative research and development revenue from pSivida, Inc. acquired in December of 2005.
Other Income
Other income decreased to A$580,633 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$660,400 for the year ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of A$79,767 or 13.7%. Other income consisted primarily of interest income and the decrease is attributable to reduced levels of cash held by the Company throughout the year.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative costs increased to A$21,392,944 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$11,693,006 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$9,699,938, or 83.0%. This increase is primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets acquired which increased to A$9,316,078 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$6,070,231 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$3,245,847. The increase is also the result of employee benefits expense which increased to A$5,422,292 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$1,548,617 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$3,873,675. These increases are largely the result of the acquisition of CDS, the resulting additional annual legal and accounting professional advisor costs incurred in complying with the U.S. legal, regulatory and statutory reporting requirements, and increased investor relations activities and travel costs.
7
Research and Development
Research and development expense increased to A$17,855,265 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$8,287,930 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$9,567,335, or 115.4%. Approximately A$4.9 million of the increase was attributable to operations related to pSivida, Inc. The remaining increase of A$4.7 million was primarily attributable to the commencement of a BrachySil primary liver cancer Phase IIb dose profiling study in October 2005, together with a related increase in headcount, principally at our Malvern, UK and Singapore offices to support the commencement of the trial.
Interest and Finance Costs
Interest and finance costs increased to A$4,544,084 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$31,569 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$4,512,515. These interest and finance costs incurred for the year ended June 30, 2006 were primarily due to A$1,073,051 of interest expense and A$2,972,608 of amortization of the discount and issuance costs components of the convertible note issued in November 2005. A portion of the increase was also attributable to penalties made in respect of the convertible note amounting to A$498,425.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative
Change in fair value of derivative decreased to A$3,407,915 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$Nil for the year ended June 30, 2005, a decrease of A$3,407,915. This is a direct result of issuing the subordinated convertible promissory note on November 16, 2005, whereby the value of the derivatives embedded in the loan note have been determined at fair value and changes over time are revalued on a marked to market basis.
Foreign Exchange Gain/(Loss)
Foreign exchange gain/(loss) increased to a gain of A$724,811 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from a loss of A$1,623,484 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$2,348,295. This increase was primarily due to the recognition of significant unrealized foreign exchange gains caused by the strengthening in the Pound Sterling and the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar foreign exchange rates on foreign currency transactions during the year and on significant cash deposits held in foreign currencies.
Income Tax Benefit
Income tax benefit increased to A$9,519,805 for the year ended June 30, 2006 from A$3,620,891 for the year ended June 30, 2005, an increase of A$5,898,914, or 162.9%. The majority of this increase, A$5,061,603 was due to the recognition of additional deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses generated during the year ended June 30, 2006 that are available for carry forward.
Inflation and Seasonality
Our management believes inflation has not had a material impact on our operations or financial condition and that our operations are not currently subject to seasonal influences.
Conditions in Australia
pSivida is incorporated under the laws of, and our principal offices are located in the Commonwealth of Australia. Therefore, we are directly affected by political and economic conditions in Australia.
B. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We have incurred operating losses since inception, and at June 30, 2006, we had an accumulated deficit during the development stage of A$56,928,344. Since our inception, we have relied primarily on the proceeds from sales of our equity and debt securities, consulting revenue, license fees and collaboration payments to fund our operations.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled A$15,446,552 million at June 30, 2006 compared to A$12,892,061 million at June 30, 2005. Under the terms of the convertible note agreement, we had a requirement to maintain net cash balances in excess of 30% of the outstanding principal balance (representing approximately A$6,165,000 at June 30, 2006). In connection with a further amendment of the convertible note agreement dated October 17, 2006, the required minimum cash balance has been reduced to US$1.5 million through March 30, 2007, after which the original 30% requirement will apply.

Net cash used in operating activities totaled A$21,735,693 for the year ended June 30, 2006 compared to A$12,304,598 million for the year ended June 30, 2005. Research and development expenditure was the most significant expenditure item resulting in cash out flows during the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and amounted to A$12,980,180 and A$8,318,054, respectively. The increase of A$4,662,126 was primarily related to research and development activities of CDS, which was acquired on December 30, 2005, and the commencement of the BrachySil™ primary liver cancer Phase IIb dose profiling study. Payments to suppliers and employees during the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were A$10,860,228 and A$4,815,520 million, respectively. The increase in payments from the year ended June 30, 2005 to the year ended June 30, 2006 consisted of increased expenses relating to additional administrative activities and the timing of cash payments related to these activities.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled A$5,561,833 for the year ended June 30, 2006 compared to A$8,055,182 for the year ended June 30, 2005. Cash flows from investing activities during the year ended June 30, 2005 included A$4,644,964 cash paid on the acquisition of the remaining minority interest in pSiMedica and the for the year ended June 30, 2006 included A$4,033,058 cash paid on the acquisition of CDS (net of cash acquired). The reduction in net cash used in investing activities was also attributable to a reduced level of expenditure required on plant and equipment in fiscal 2006 following the completion of our clean room facility in Germany during 2005.
Net cash flows from financing activities totaled A$29,161,715 for the year ended June 30, 2006 compared to A$3,639,078 for the year ended June 30, 2005. Cash flows from financing activities during the year ended June 30, 2006 reflected the following:
§ | in September 2005, we issued 665,000 ADSs (representing 6,650,000 of our ordinary shares) at a price of US$6.50 (A$8.48) each, raising A$5.6 million before costs of A$468,873 through a private investment in public equity (“PIPE”); |
§ | in November 2005, we issued a subordinated convertible promissory note in the principal amount of US$15 million (A$20.5 million) before costs of A$607,196 to an institutional investor. That note was amended and partially repaid via a payment of US$3.5 million in August 2006 and is currently in the principal amount of US$12,500,000 and convertible into 6,250,000 ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS, subject to adjustment based on certain events or circumstances, including a reset provision based on the market price as of April 30, 2007; and |
§ | in June 2006, we issued 10,515,811 new ordinary shares at a price of A$0.60 each, raising A$6,309,487, before costs, through a Rights Issue |
Cash flows from financing activities during the year ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005 also included A$15 and A$3,666,500 respectively received related to the exercise of stock options.
Our existing cash resources are not likely to be sufficient to support the commercial introduction of any of our current product candidates. In order to fund our operations, we will need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. Our future funding requirements will depend upon many factors, including, but not limited to:
§ | Costs and timing of obtaining regulatory approvals; |
§ | The costs and timing of obtaining, enforcing and defending our patent and intellectual property; |
§ | The progress and success of pre-clinical and clinical trials of BioSilicon™ and Durasert™; |
§ | The timing and degree of Retisert™ product sales resulting in royalty revenue; |
§ | The progress and number of our research programs in development; and |
§ | The success, if any, related to the ongoing evaluations of our technology by third parties. |
We do not know whether such additional financing will be available when needed or on terms favorable to us or our stockholders. Further, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs or to obtain funds through collaborations with others that are on unfavorable terms or that may require us to relinquish certain rights to our technologies or products, including potentially our Medidur™ product that we would otherwise seek to develop in collaboration with Alimera or our lead BioSilicon™ product that we would otherwise seek to develop on our own.
9
C. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES, ETC.
Our primary activity is the development of products based on our Durasert™, BioSilicon™ and Codrug™ technologies. Our research and development expenses were A$17,855,265 and A$8,287,930 during the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. These research and development expenses consisted primarily of costs for research and development personnel, expenses for clinical trials and testing, laboratory facilities and depreciation on property, plant and equipment used solely for research and development activities. Such costs are charged to the operations as incurred. The increase in the latest fiscal year was primarily attributable to an increase in our expenditures on the research and development of the drug delivery platform and the commencement of a BrachySil primary liver cancer Phase IIb dose profiling study in October 2005 along with the addition of the activities of pSivida Inc.
D. TREND INFORMATION
We are a development stage enterprise and it is not possible for us to predict with any degree of accuracy the outcome of the research and commercialization efforts being undertaken.
As in prior periods, expenditure on research and development, as a proportion of total costs, is expected to be significant and increase from the A$17,855,265 incurred during the year ended June 30, 2006, unless cutbacks are required to conserve cash.
Our recent acquisition of CDS will have a significant impact on the nature of our business and operations as a whole and therefore, we expect that our current reported financial information may not be indicative of our future results or financial condition. The results of the operations of CDS have been included since the December 30, 2005 acquisition date.
E. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
DELOITTE TOUCHE TOHMATSU
To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of pSivida Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of pSivida Limited (a company incorporated in Western Australia) and subsidiaries (a development stage company) (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and changes in equity for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of pSivida Limited and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2006, in conformity with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards.
The Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 29 to the consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, under the revised terms of the subordinated convertible note agreement, the Company is required to hold a net cash balance in excess of US$1,500,000. As of the date of this report, the Company has determined there may be a risk of default associated with maintaining this minimum cash balance. In the event of a default the note holder is entitled to call the full value of the liability. This risk of default, together with the Company’s recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Background
pSivida Limited, or pSivida, together with its subsidiaries, referred to as the ‘Company’, ‘consolidated entity’ or the ‘Group’, is incorporated in Western Australia and is committed to biomedical applications of nano-technology and has as its core focus the development and commercialization of drug delivery products in the healthcare sector, initially in ophthalmology and oncology.
On May 18, 2001, pSivida re-listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX Code: PSD). pSivida’s shares are also listed in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on the XETRA system (German Symbol: PSI. Securities Code (WKN) 358705), in the United Kingdom on the OFEX International Market Service (‘IMS’) under the ticker symbol PSD and on the NASDAQ National Market under the ticker symbol PSDV.
The financial statements were authorized for issue by the directors on October 31, 2006.
Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Urgent Issues Group Interpretations, and complies with other requirements of the law. Accounting Standards include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘A-IFRS’). Compliance with A-IFRS ensures that the consolidated financial statements and notes of the consolidated entity comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’). The parent entity financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS except for the disclosure requirements in IAS 32 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation’ as the Australian equivalent Accounting Standard, AASB 132 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation’ (‘AASB 132’) does not require such disclosures to be presented by the parent entity where its separate financial statements are presented together with the consolidated financial statements of the consolidated entity.
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except derivative financial instruments which are measured at fair value. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
The consolidated entity changed its accounting policies on July 1, 2005 to comply with A-IFRS. The transition to A-IFRS is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 1 ‘First-Time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards’, with July 1, 2004 as the date of transition except for financial instruments (refer Note 1(s)). An explanation of how the transition from superseded policies to A-IFRS has affected the consolidated entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is discussed in Note 28.
In the application of A-IFRS, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis for making the judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Judgments made by management in the application of A-IFRS that have significant effects on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are disclosed, where applicable, in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events is reported.
16
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
The accounting policies set out below have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2006, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005, and in the preparation of the opening A-IFRS balance sheet at July 1, 2004 (as disclosed in Note 28), the consolidated entity’s date of transition, except for the accounting policies in respect of financial instruments. The consolidated entity has not restated comparative information for financial instruments, including derivatives, as permitted under the first-time adoption transitional provisions.
A reconciliation of the major differences between these principles and those applicable in the United States of America (‘US GAAP’) is included in Note 29.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars ($) unless otherwise stated.
Development Stage — Risks and Uncertainties
As a development stage enterprise, the Company’s prospects are subject to the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies, which have not yet commercialized any applications of their technology, particularly in new and evolving markets. pSivida’s operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, including capital expenditure and other costs relating to establishing, maintaining and expanding the operations, the number and mix of potential customers, potential pricing of future products by the Company and its competitors, new technology introduced by the Company and its competitors, delays or expense in obtaining necessary equipment, economic and social conditions in the biotechnology industry and general economic conditions.
pSivida will continue to review the need to seek additional funding through public and private financing and/or through collaboration or other arrangements with corporate partners. The Company cannot be certain that they will be able to raise any required funding or capital, on favorable terms or at all, or that they will be able to establish corporate collaborations on acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain such additional funding or capital, they may be required to reduce the scope of their development plans.
pSivida’s experience in exploiting their technology is limited. The Company cannot be certain that their operations will be profitable in the short-term, or at all. If pSivida fails in any of their efforts to establish or expand their business, the results of operations, financial condition and liquidity of the Company could be materially adversely affected. The Company cannot be certain that they will be able to obtain or retain any permits required by the Company to market, sell and deliver its technology. Any of these factors could result in cessation of pSivida’s operations.
The date of inception of the development stage was December 1, 2000, being the date that pSivida (formerly Sumich Group Limited) was re-listed on the Australian Stock Exchange following a recapitalization and restructure. It was after this recapitalization and restructure that the Company acquired an interest in pSiMedica Limited, or pSiMedica, and commenced its research and development activities. Balances at inception of the development stage represent the Company’s statement of financial position balances post-recapitalization and restructure.
Going concern basis
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity, realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
At June 30, 2006, the consolidated entity had current assets of $17,080,192 and current liabilities of $23,962,620, resulting in net current liabilities of $6,882,428. For the year ended June 30, 2006, the consolidated entity incurred a negative operating cash flow of $21,735,693 and a net loss for the year of $28,166,129.
During the year ended June 30, 2006, the Company entered into a subordinated convertible note agreement. As at the date of this report, the Company has determined that there may be a risk of default associated with maintaining the minimum net cash balance of US$1.5 million ($2.1 million) in accordance with the amended note agreement of October 17, 2006. In the event of a default, in accordance with the terms of the convertible loan note agreement, the note holder is entitled to call the full face value of the liability ($20.5 million at June 30, 2006) in cash.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Having regard to these matters, the Directors are nonetheless of the opinion that the going concern basis upon which the financial report is prepared continues to be appropriate for the following reasons:
(i) | between balance date and the date of this report, the Company has sold US$6.5 million ($8.5 million) of Subordinated Convertible Debentures as further described in Note 21; |
(ii) | subsequent to June 30, 2006 the Company closed an agreement to revise the terms of the convertible note as further described in Note 21. This included the rescheduling of capital repayments with two repayments of US$6.25 million ($8.56 million) in July 2007 and January 2008, respectively; |
(iii) | in the event of a default under the terms of the convertible note the Directors believe that they will be able to reach agreement on further revisions to the terms of the convertible note without the debt being called; and |
(iv) | the Directors believe that the Company has the capacity to raise additional working capital either through the issue of additional equities or new debt issued to third parties, or a combination of debt and equity. |
The Directors are of the opinion that the basis upon which the financial statements are prepared is appropriate in the circumstances. However, in the event that the convertible note is not converted into issued share capital, or the Company is not able to meet certain requirements under the convertible note or attain or maintain the effectiveness of or compliance with applicable regulations with respect to the registration statement and, as a result of any of the foregoing, the convertible note is required to be repaid in cash, there is substantial doubt as to whether the Company could continue as a going concern. Should the Company or the consolidated entity not continue as a going concern and pay their debts as and when they fall due, they may be unable to realize their assets, and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company and the consolidated entity be unable to continue as a going concern.
Significant accounting policies
The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report:
(a) | Principles of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements are prepared by combining the financial statements of all the entities that comprise the consolidated entity, being pSivida Limited (the ‘parent entity’) and its subsidiaries as defined in Accounting Standard AASB 127 ‘Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements’. Consistent accounting policies are employed in the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
On acquisition and step acquisition (including increase in interests in subsidiaries), the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. If, after reassessment, the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the cost of acquisition, the deficiency is credited to profit and loss in the period of acquisition.
On acquisition the interest of minority shareholders is stated at the minority’s proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognized.
18
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
The consolidated financial statements include information and results of each subsidiary from the date on which the Company obtains control and until such time as the Company ceases to control such entity. On acquisition the accounting policies of all subsidiaries are aligned with the policies of the Group.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-company balances and transactions, and unrealized profits arising within the consolidated entity are eliminated in full.
(b) | Foreign currency |
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. Entities within the consolidated entity use the following functional currencies:
Entity | Functional currency |
pSivida Limited | Australian dollar ($) to December 31, 2005 United States dollar (US$) from January 1, 2006 |
pSiMedica Limited | British pound (£) |
pSivida Inc | United States dollar (US$) |
pSiOncology Pte Ltd | Singapore dollar (S$) |
AION Diagnostics Limited | Australian dollar ($) |
pSiNutria Limited | British pound (£) |
The parent entity changed its functional currency from Australian dollars to United States dollars on acquisition of pSivida Inc (formerly Control Delivery Systems Inc) effective January 1, 2006 as it was determined that the United States was the primary economic environment in which the parent entity operates as of that date.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s presentation currency.
The results and financial position of the entities whose functional currency is not the same as the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency using the following procedures:
(a) | assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet; |
(b) | income and expenses for each income statement are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and |
(c) | all resulting exchange differences are recognized as a separate component of equity. |
Foreign currency transactions
All foreign currency transactions during the financial period are brought to account using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items at reporting date are translated at the exchange rate existing at reporting date.
Exchange differences are recognized in profit and loss in the period in which they arise.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity on or after the date of transition to A-IFRS are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date.
(c) | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cash in banks and money market investments with original maturity of three months or less, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are carried at the principal amount and are classified as current liabilities in the balance sheet. Restrictions on the availability of cash for use within the Company’s day to day operations are included within cash and cash equivalents, but are disclosed separately.

(d) | Financial assets |
Receivables
Trade and other receivables are recorded at cost less impairment.
(e) | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition.
Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.
The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation:
Leasehold improvements | Lease term |
Plant and equipment | 3 years |
(f) | Leases |
Leases are classified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on the economic substance of the agreement so as to reflect the risks and benefits incidental to ownership.
Operating leases
The minimum lease payments of operating leases, where the lessor effectively retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased item, are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Contingent rentals are recognized as an expense in the financial year in which they are incurred.
The cost of improvements to or on leasehold property is capitalized, disclosed as leasehold improvements, and depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is the shorter.
(g) | Goodwill |
Goodwill, representing the excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired, is recognized as an asset and not amortized, but tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the goodwill may be impaired. Any impairment is recognized immediately in profit and loss and is not subsequently reversed.
(h) | Intangible assets |
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
All potential intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognized separately from goodwill where they satisfy the definition of an intangible asset and their fair value can be measured reliably.
Patents and intellectual property
Acquired patents and intellectual property are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the cost of the asset over its estimated useful life of 12 years, commencing on the date the asset is available for use. The expected useful life is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period.
20
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
In-process research and development
In-process research and development (‘IPR&D’) projects acquired in a business combination are recorded at cost, subject to any impairment write-downs. Amortization is charged over the estimated useful life once a project included in IPR&D has been successfully developed and is available for use. No amortization has been charged in the periods presented.
Research and development costs
Expenditure on research activities is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognized, development expenditure is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
An intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognized if, and only if, all of the following are demonstrated:
· | the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; |
· | the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; |
· | the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; |
· | how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; |
· | the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and |
· | the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. |
To date, no development costs have been capitalized.
(i) | Trade and other payables |
Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognized when the consolidated entity becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services.
(j) | Borrowings |
Borrowings are recorded initially at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings are measured at amortized cost with any difference between the initial recognized amount and the redemption value being recognized in profit and loss over the period of the borrowing.
(k) | Financial instruments issued by the Company |
Debt and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.
Compound instruments
The component parts of compound instruments, such as convertible debt with detachable warrants, are classified separately as liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for a similar non-convertible debt. The equity component initially brought to account is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the amount of the compound instrument as a whole.
The Company reviews the terms of compound instruments to determine whether there are embedded derivatives, such as a holder’s conversion option, that may be required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. Bifurcated embedded derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet and classified as an asset or liability, as appropriate. After initial recognition, subsequent changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative are charged or credited to the income statement in the period.
21
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Transaction costs on the issue of equity instruments
Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognized directly in equity as a reduction of the proceeds of the equity instruments to which the costs relate. Transaction costs are the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the issue of those equity instruments and which would not have been incurred had those instruments not been issued.
Transaction costs and discount on the issue of debt instruments
Transaction costs relating to the issuance of debt and the discount from the face amount of the debt are set off against the debt liability and amortized using the effective interest method over the expected life of the instrument.
Transaction costs and discount on the convertible note entered into on November 15, 2005 amounted to $8,372,475, of which $2,972,608 was amortized as of June 30, 2006.
Interest and dividends
Interest and dividends are classified as expenses or as distributions of profit consistent with the balance sheet classification of the related debt or equity instruments or component parts of compound instruments.
(l) | Provisions |
Provisions are recognized when the consolidated entity has a present obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
A provision for dividends is not recognized as a liability unless the dividends are declared, determined or publicly recommended on or before the reporting date.
(m) | Income recognition |
Revenue
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:
Royalties
Royalty revenue is generally recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. Non-refundable royalties received in advance for which the Company has no obligation to perform future services are recognized when received.
Collaborative research and development
Collaborative research and development revenue comprises amounts received for research and development activities under the consolidated Group’s collaboration agreements. For contracts with specifically defined milestones, revenues from milestone payments related to agreements under which the consolidated Group has no continuing performance obligations are recognized upon achievement of the related milestone which represents the culmination of the earnings process. Revenues from milestone payments related to research collaboration agreements under which the consolidated Group has continuing performance obligations are recognized as revenue upon achievement of the milestone only if all of the following conditions are met: the milestone payments are non-refundable; substantive effort is involved in achieving the milestone; and the amount of the milestone is reasonable in relation to the effort expended or the risk associated with achievement of the milestone. If any of these conditions are not met, the milestone payments are deferred and recognized as revenue when the collaborating party confirms that the performance obligations have been met.
22
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Other income
Interest
Interest income is recognized on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.
Dividends
Dividend income is recognized on a receivable basis.
(n) | Goods and services tax |
The Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) is a tax on the supply of goods and services which is ultimately borne by the consumer but is collected at each stage of the production and distribution chain. The Company accounts for the impact of GST consistent with the Urgent Issues Group Interpretation 1031, ‘Accounting for the Goods and Services Tax’.
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of GST, except:
· | for receivables and payables which are recognized inclusive of GST; and |
· | where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense. GST incurred in respect of costs associated with share placements and non-tax deductible entertainment expenditure, is not recoverable from the taxation authority and GST incurred in respect of some stock exchange fees and registry expenses is only partially recoverable from the taxation authority. |
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables.
Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows.
(o) | Income tax |
Current tax
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognized as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items.
In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilized. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognized in relation to temporary differences arising from goodwill.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realized or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the consolidated entity expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
23
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Deferred tax assets relating to carry forward tax losses are recognized where it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the carry forward tax losses can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company / consolidated entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Current and deferred tax for the period
Current and deferred tax is recognized as an expense or as income in the income statement, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognized directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill.
(p) | Employee entitlements |
Provision is made for employee entitlements accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave.
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, sick leave and any other employee entitlements 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. All other employee entitlement liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the interest rates attaching to government guaranteed securities which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability are used.
Employee entitlements expenses arising in respect of the following categories:
§ | wages and salaries, non-monetary benefits, annual leave, sick leave and other leave entitlements; and |
§ | other types of employee entitlements; |
are charged against profits on a net basis in their respective categories.
Any contributions made to the superannuation fund by entities within the consolidated entity are charged against profits when due.
(q) | Impairment of assets |
At each reporting date, the consolidated entity 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). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the consolidated entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Goodwill, as well as in process research and development, is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not subsequently reversed.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
24
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) 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 recognized for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit and loss immediately.
(r) | Share-based payments |
Equity-settled share-based payments granted after November 7, 2002 that were unvested as of January 1, 2005 are measured at fair value at the date of grant (or the measurement date in the case of share-based payments granted to non-employees). Fair value is measured by use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model in most instances. Where conditions of the options make use of the Black-Scholes method inappropriate, such as where employee options have long lives, and are exercisable during the period between vesting date and the end of the option’s life and the exercise date cannot be reliably estimated, the entity will use another more appropriate option valuation method, such as the Binomial method. The expected life used in the Binomial model is adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of exercise restrictions and behavioral considerations.
The fair value of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed over the vesting period, based on the consolidated entity’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest.
(s) | Comparative information |
The consolidated entity has elected not to restate comparative information for financial instruments within the scope of AASB 132 and AASB 139 ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’, as permitted on the first-time adoption of A-IFRS. The Company’s analysis has concluded that the changes in the accounting policies for financial instruments has a nil effect on the balance sheet as at July 1, 2005.
(t) | AASB accounting standards issued but not yet in effect |
Australian Accounting Standards that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been adopted for the annual reporting period ended June 30, 2006. Whilst a final assessment has not been made on the expected impact of these standards, it is expected that there will be no significant changes in the Group’s accounting policies.

Allocation of goodwill and in-process research and development to cash-generating units
Goodwill and in-process research and development have been allocated for impairment testing purposes to a single cash-generating unit based on the primary reporting segment. At this time, Retisert is the only cash-generating product owned by the Company with sales of the product occurring in the US as a result of the marketing of the product undertaken by Bausch & Lomb. The Company receives a royalty fee on each sale of the Retisert product.
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is determined based on a value in use calculation which uses cash flow projections based on the expectations and forecasts of management covering a ten year period and applying a discount rate in reference to a weighted average cost of capital for the Company of approximately 17.2% based on a beta of 2.5. Management considers ten years to be a reasonable period to consider based on the nature of the industry and the often long product development cycles prior to commercialization. Cash flows have been estimated based on current numbers of patients diagnosed with the condition which the Group’s products are developed to treat, with growth rates based on generally expected treads, ranging between zero percentage increases and up to 4% per annum. Management considers such growth rates to be reasonable. Market penetration rates have been developed based on currently available sales results and on management’s future expectations and range from between 0.4% to 12%. Management considers the market penetration rates applied to be reasonable based on the unmet need of many of the conditions for which the Group’s products are being developed to treat. Development costs have been estimated based on historical costs and on management’s development plans currently in place, with general and administrative costs assumed to grow at the rate of 5% per annum after a period of three years for which detailed cost budgets have been prepared by management. Management believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which recoverable amount is based would not cause the carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

(i) | The consolidated entity entered into a finance facility agreement with Castlerigg Master Investments on 16 November 2005 to fund the expanded development of pSivida’s platform technologies and ongoing working capital requirements. The facility agreement contains a number of terms that create a hybrid financial instrument being a loan host contract and a compound embedded derivative. |
Terms of the subordinated convertible note were as follows:
· | Face value of US$15 million ($20.5 million) |
· | Term of 3 years |
· | Interest payable at an interest rate of 8% payable quarterly |
· | Convertible into pSivida ADSs at an initial conversion price of US$7.10 per ADS ($0.95 per ordinary share) |
The convertible note may be converted by the holder into shares (represented by ADSs) at any time prior to the third anniversary of the date of issue of the Note. The number of shares to be issued on conversion of Note is to be calculated by dividing the face value of the Note to be converted (and any accrued but unpaid interest on the Note) by the issue price of the shares (rounded up to the nearest 10 shares), which was initially US$7.10 per ADS (or US$0.71 per share).

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
The holder of the Notes may require the Company to redeem up to one third of their Notes on the 12 month, 18 month and 24 month anniversary of the Note where one tenth of the volume weighted average price at which ADSs trade on NASDAQ over the 10 trading days preceding these anniversary dates is less that the conversion price on that date.
The Company has the right, in certain specified circumstances, to force the investors to convert the Notes into ADSs, including if the ADSs are trading at 200% of the conversion price during a specified period.
Events of default include the Company’s failure to deliver converted ADSs within a period of 12 business days, suspension from trading for more than five business days or ten business days within a 12 month period, a failure to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, a failure to pay interest and other customary events of default such as bankruptcy.
Under the terms of the Note, the Company is required to hold a net cash balance in excess of 30% of the amount of the note outstanding. Accordingly, $6,163,539 of cash and cash equivalents is restricted as of June 30, 2006.
The convertible note was valued using a Binomial Tree Model.
The Company also issued detachable warrants over 633,803 ADSs (representing warrants over 6,338,030 ordinary shares) as part of the convertible note agreement. The warrants are exercisable for six years at a current exercise price of US$7.17 per ADS. The value of the detachable warrants was determined using the residual value method and was recorded as a separate component of equity.
Refer to Note 21 for details of subsequent amendment to the terms of the note.

(i) | The compound embedded derivative arose in connection with the finance facility agreement with Castlerigg Master Investments. The facility agreement contains a number of terms that create a hybrid financial instrument consisting of a loan host contract and a compound embedded derivative. In accordance with the stated accounting policy, the embedded derivatives, which include the conversion option and the holder’s redemption option, are recognized separately from the host debt instrument. The value of the derivatives embedded in the loan has been determined at fair value using a Binomial Tree Model and changes over time are revalued on a marked to market basis through profit and loss. |

For share options and warrants granted during the financial year the fair value of the options and warrants granted was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (refer to Note 1(r)). The following weighted average inputs to that model were used:

Risk-free rate | 5.257% | 5.081% | 5.350% | 5.250% |
The Company also issued 633,803 warrants over ADSs (representing 6,338,030 warrants over ordinary shares) during the financial year in connection with the convertible note transaction in November 2005. These warrants were valued using the residual value method and were recorded as a separate component of equity (refer to Note 10(i)).
The Company has considered the stage of development, the future relocation of the Company to the US, the individuals to whom options have been awarded and historical exercises when estimating the expected early exercise of the options issued.
In determining a reasonable expected rate of volatility to be applied in determining the value of options issued by the Company, the Company considered historical volatility and the expectation that the volatility rate will remain constant around current levels as the Company continues to mature in the Australian biotech market, whilst gaining greater exposure to the US market.

The risk-free rate is the government bond rate (having a term that most closely resembles the expected life of the option) in effect at the grant date.
(d) | Terms and conditions of issued capital |
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. One ADS is equivalent to ten ordinary shares.
(e) | Registration rights agreements |
During the year ended June 30, 2006, the Company entered into registration rights agreements with purchasers of its equity securities. These registration rights agreements require the Company to register with the SEC the resale of ADSs issued to such persons. The Company’s obligation to register ADSs in such transactions is subject to a deadline, which may be extended in certain situations, and the Company’s failure to meet these deadlines may result in monetary compensation against the Company. With respect to the convertible note financing, from May 15, 2006 until June 30, 2006, that penalty was equal to US$225,000 ($308,200) per 30-day period, and the Company was required to make payments of US$352,500 ($474,237) through that period. The Company was required to make additional payments at the same rate for the period from July 1, 2006 until registration on September 29, 2006. The expense in relation to the penalty payments incurred in the year ended June 30, 2006 is included within other financing costs in the income statement.

Due to a reorganization within the AION Diagnostics consolidated group during the financial year the options originally issued by AION Diagnostics Limited were cancelled and reissued by AION Diagnostics Inc. The reorganization did not have a financial impact.
20. | Contingent liabilities |
The consolidated entity had no contingent liabilities as at June 30, 2006.
21. | Subsequent events |
On July 31, 2006, the Company announced that Gavin Rezos had resigned for personal and family reasons as Managing Director and CEO of pSivida and its subsidiaries. Mr Rezos has agreed to make himself available in Australia as the Company may request his assistance to achieve certain goals pending the appointment of a permanent replacement.
On August 28, 2006, the Company announced that Heather Zampatti resigned as a Director of the Company.
On September 14, 2006, the Company closed an agreement revising the terms of the subordinated convertible promissory note that was issued on November 16, 2005 to an institutional investor. The note continues to have a three year term and bear 8% interest payable quarterly. The Company may make future interest payments in the form of our NASDAQ-listed ADSs, or, at the Company’s sole option, it may make such payments in cash. Per the amended terms, the note is now convertible into ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS, subject to adjustment based upon certain events or circumstances, including, without limitation, if 108% of the market price of ADSs for the ten trading days ending April 30, 2007 is lower than the current conversion price. In connection with the amendments, the Company prepaid US$2.5 million of the outstanding principal note and agreed to prepay US$1 million in related penalties, which were paid on September 14, 2006. This payment was part of a number of amendments made in relation to the subordinated convertible loan note, the terms of which were revised in an agreement entered into providing for the release of restrictions on the Company’s ability to enter into future fund raising transactions and extending the time for the registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The investor retains its existing warrants to purchase 633,803 additional ADSs, exercisable for six years at a current exercise price of US$7.17 per ADS. In connection with the amendments, the Company has agreed with the institutional investor to extend the deadline for the registration statement required by the registration rights agreement with the selling security holder to be declared effective by the SEC through October 15, 2006, with increased penalties if that deadline is missed. The Company’s Registration Statement was declared effective on September 29, 2006. The Company has also been released from the restrictions on future fundraising transactions contained in the note documentation. The Company also granted the investor an additional warrant to purchase 5.7 million ADSs exercisable for five years with an exercise price of US$1.80 per ADS and a security interest in the Group’s current royalties, subject to release of that security upon any disposition by the Company of the royalty stream.

On September 26, 2006 the Company closed an agreement with Absolute Europe Catalyst Fund, Absolute Octane Fund and Australian IT Investments Limited to purchase US$6.5 million ($8.5 million) of Subordinated Convertible Debentures convertible into pSivida ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS ($0.27 per ordinary share). The debentures will mature three years from the date of closing and will bear 8% interest payable quarterly in arrears and/or ADSs at an 8% discount to the 10 day volume weighted average closing price (‘VWAP’). The Company has issued to the investors warrants exercisable for a number of ADSs equal to 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding New Notes divided by the conversion price with an exercise price of US$2.00 and a term of five years. The Company may redeem the notes at any time by payment of 108% of the face value and may force conversion when the ADS price remains above US$4.00 for a set period of 25 days.
On October 17, 2006, the Company closed an agreement further revising the terms of the subordinated convertible promissory note that was issued on November 16, 2005 to an institutional investor. The Company has been released from the requirement to hold a net cash balance in excess of 30% of the amount of the note outstanding until March 30, 2007. Up to and including March 30, 2007 the net cash balance required to be held by the Company has been reduced to $2,054,513 (US$1,500,000). The Company will be required to make a one-time payment of US$800,000 on December 28, 2006 and three equal payments of US$150,000 on January 31, 2007, February 28, 2007 and March 31, 2007. Following the Company’s Registration Statement being declared effective on September 29, 2006, the Company is permitted 30 days to cure a loss of effectiveness or non-compliance before an event of default under the amended convertible note occurs.
22. | Loss per share |
Basic loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing net loss for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The Company has no potential ordinary shares on issue which were dilutive in the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted loss per share computations:

(c) | Compensation of key management personnel |
(i) | Compensation policy |
The Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors and Executive Officers. The Remuneration Committee will assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. Such officers are paid their base emolument in cash only.
To assist in achieving these objectives, the Remuneration Committee will link the nature and amount of executive Directors’ and officers’ emoluments to the Company’s financial and operational performance.
Remuneration paid to the Company's directors and executives is also determined with reference to the market level of remuneration for other listed biotechnology companies in Australia, the UK and the US. This assessment is undertaken with reference to advice and comment provided by various search executive firms operating in the sector. Consideration of the Company's predominantly research and development stage of development is taken into account in this review.
Executive Officers are those directly accountable for the operational management and strategic direction of the Company and the consolidated entity.
Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration consists of a base remuneration package, which includes directors’ fees (in the case of Directors), salaries, consulting fees and employer contributions to superannuation funds.
48
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Fixed remuneration levels for Directors and executive officers are reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee through a process that considers the employee’s personal development, achievement of key performance objectives for the year, industry benchmarks wherever possible and CPI data. Recommendations for remuneration levels are given by the Remuneration Committee to the Board for approval.
Key performance indicators (‘KPI’s) are individually tailored by the Remuneration Committee for each director and executive officer each year, and reflect an assessment of how that employee can fulfill their particular responsibilities in a way that best contributes to Company performance and shareholder wealth in that year.
Total remuneration for non-executive directors is determined by resolution of shareholders. The Remuneration Committee determines actual payments to directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on independent external advice, relativities and the duties and accountabilities of the directors. The maximum available aggregate remuneration approved for non-executive directors is $280,000. Non-executive directors do not receive any other retirement benefits other than a superannuation guarantee contribution required by government regulation, which is currently 9% of their fees.
Non-executive directors may provide specific consulting advice to the Company upon direction from the Board. Remuneration for this work is made at market rates.
Performance-linked remuneration
All employees may receive bonuses and/or share options based on achievement of specific goals related to performance against individual KPIs and to the performance of the Company as a whole as determined by the directors based on a range of factors. These factors include traditional financial considerations such as operating performance, cash consumption, deals concluded increases in the market capitalization of the Company and successful capital raisings and also industry-specific factors relating to the advancement of the Company’s research and development activities and intellectual property portfolio, collaborations and relationships with scientific institutions, third parties and internal employees.
Stock options are awarded under the Employee Share Option Plan to the Company's directors and executives and are determined on the individuals’ performance against milestones, the level of involvement in achieving the corporate milestones and goals and to an extent the relativity between executives. Non-executive directors do participate in the Company's Employee Share Option Plan, given the Company's size and stage of development and the necessity to attract the highest caliber of professionals to the role, whilst maintaining the Company's cash reserves.
The Remuneration Committee determines the total amount of performance-linked remuneration payable as a percentage of the total annualized salaries for all employees employed as at the end of the financial year (with pro rata reductions to the annualized salary made for any employee not employed for the entire financial year). Once the Remuneration Committee has determined the total performance-linked remuneration payable across the Company, Committee members assess the performance of each individual staff member within their department, relative to that staff member’s KPIs and decide how much performance-linked remuneration should be paid to that person.
Elements of director and executive compensation
Compensation packages contain the following key elements:
(a) | Short-term benefits - salary / fees, bonuses and other benefits; |
(b) | Post-employment benefits - including superannuation; and |
(c) | Share-based payments - share options granted under the Employee Share Option Plan as disclosed in Note 19 to the financial statements. |

Control Delivery Systems Inc (‘CDS’) | Design and develop drug delivery products | December 30, 2005 | 100% | 116,878,675 |
The acquisition is an integral part of the Company’s on-going US growth strategy, creating a global bio-nanotech company specializing in drug delivery, with revenues from existing products and generating long-term value through its diversified late-stage product portfolio. CDS’ portfolio of products and product candidates includes two approved and marketed products, one Phase III product and other early-stage product candidates. This combination also provides pSivida with an operating base in the Boston biotech hub, enhancing its overall visibility as well as access to the US scientific and investment communities and brings additional development and regulatory expertise to pSivida’s management team. On completion of the acquisition, CDS was renamed pSivida Inc.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Cost of acquisition comprised of: | $ | |||
· Cash | 114,319 | |||
· 150,844,680 ordinary fully paid shares of pSivida, represented by 15,084,468 American Depositary Shares (‘ADS’s) $0.71 per share, represented by US$5.169 per ADS | 107,099,723 | |||
· 8,991,930 non-vested ordinary shares of pSivida, represented by 899,193 non-vested ADSs $0.71 per share, represented by US$5.169 per ADS | 6,384,270 | |||
· Less: Unearned compensation | (1,509,089 | ) | ||
· 1,724,460 share options in pSivida, represented by 172,446 options over ADSs | 642,250 | |||
· Direct acquisition costs | 4,147,202 | |||
116,878,675 |
The fair value of the ordinary fully paid shares was based on the ASX published price at the date of exchange. The ASX closing price of pSivida ordinary shares on the December 30, 2005 was $0.71 per ordinary share.
The fair value of the non-vested ordinary shares has been valued at the same amount per share as the vested ordinary shares. However, the fair value is reduced by an amount of unearned compensation, being the portion of the fair value at the date of exchange related to the future service (vesting) period of the non-vested ordinary shares.
The fair value of the share options has been calculated using the Black-Scholes model.
The registration and issue costs of $1,169,385 are excluded from the purchase price and recognized as a reduction of issued capital.
Included in the net loss for the period is a loss of $5,937,498 attributable to the acquired business of CDS (now pSivida Inc). The revenue of the combined entity for the year would have been $2,037,160 (2005: $13,088,676), the loss after income tax would have been $36,784,780 (2005: $14,430,955) and the basic and diluted loss per share would have been $(0.12) (2005: $(0.04)) had the acquisition of CDS been effected at the beginning of the year rather than on December 30, 2005.

(e) | Credit risk management |
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from default.
The consolidated entity's maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of recognized financial asset is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts, of those assets as indicated in the balance sheet.

In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
(f) | Fair value of financial instruments |
The directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their fair values (2005: net fair values). With regard to the convertible note, the directors believe that there is no significant difference between the carrying value and fair value because the instrument takes into account the risk profile and liquidity of the Company at this stage in its development.
28. | Transition to Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards |
The consolidated entity changed its accounting policies on July 1, 2005 to comply with A-IFRS. The transition to A-IFRS is accounted for in accordance with AASB 1, with July 1, 2004 as the date of transition, except for financial instruments, where the date of transition is July 1, 2005 (refer Note 1).
An explanation of how the transition from superseded policies to A-IFRS has affected the consolidated entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and the notes that accompany the tables.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Effect of A-IFRS on the cash flow statement
There are no material differences between the cash flow statement presented under A-IFRS and the cash flow statement presented under the superseded policies.
Notes to the reconciliations of the income statement and balance sheet
(a) | Other intangible assets |
At the date of transition to A-IFRS, the Company elected to restate all business combinations occurring from December 1, 2000, the date of the entity’s relisting on the Australian Stock Exchange.
As part of this restatement, the Company has capitalized direct acquisition costs previously expensed under superseded policies on the acquisition of a controlling interest in pSiMedica Limited in May 2001 totaling $112,278, resulting in an increase to intangibles of this amount on transition (and also applicable at June 30, 2005) and a corresponding decrease to accumulated losses in the consolidated entity, and an increase in other financial assets and a corresponding decrease to accumulated losses in pSivida Limited.
The restatement of business combinations has also resulted in an increase in other intangible assets of $3,400,552 on transition (and also applicable at June 30, 2005) in the consolidated entity as a result of the gross-up of intangible assets resulting from changes to deferred tax balances. An amortization expense must also be charged on the additional intangible amount. This has resulted in a decrease in intangibles of $692,513 at transition and $1,003,517 at June 30, 2005. A corresponding increase to accumulated losses of $692,513 on transition, and an additional amortization expense of $311,004 for the year ended June 30, 2005 has been recorded. These adjustments had no effect in the financial statements of pSivida Limited.
Further, under A-IFRS the consolidated entity has chosen to amortize its intangible assets from the date of their recognition, which differs from superseded policies whereby the consolidated entity did not amortize intangible assets until such time as they resulted in the generation of revenue. This has resulted in a decrease in intangibles of $1,636,767 at transition and $7,395,994 at June 30, 2005. A corresponding increase to accumulated losses of $1,636,767 on transition, and an additional amortization expense of $5,759,227 for the year ended June 30, 2005 has been recorded. These adjustments had no effect in the financial statements of pSivida Limited.
(b) | Cumulative exchange differences |
At the date of transition, the consolidated entity elected to reset the foreign currency translation reserve to zero. An amount of $78,220 was reclassified from the foreign currency translation reserve to accumulated losses on transition (and also applicable at June 30, 2005), thereby reducing the balance of reserves by this amount.
(c) | Share-based payments |
In accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’, equity-settled share-based payments granted after November 7, 2002 that were unvested as of January 1, 2005 are measured at fair value at the date of grant (or the measurement date in the case of share-based payments granted to non-employees).
The fair value of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed over the vesting period, based on the consolidated entity’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest.
As at the date of transition to A-IFRS, the consolidated entity has recognized an increase in the employee equity-settled payments reserve and a corresponding increase in accumulated losses of $39,689. This adjustment was also applicable to pSivida Limited.
For the financial year ended June 30, 2005, share-based payments of $591,897 which were not recognized under the superseded policies were recognized as selling, general and administrative expenses under A-IFRS, with a corresponding increase in the employee equity-settled payments reserve in the financial statements of the consolidated entity. Share-based payments of $420,788 were recognized as selling, general and administrative expenses in the financial statements of pSivida Limited, with a corresponding increase in the employee equity-settled payments reserve.
These adjustments had no material tax or deferred tax consequences.
69
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
(d) | Interest income |
In accordance with AASB 118 ‘Revenue’ the Company has reclassified interest income from revenue to other income as it does not meet the definition in that Accounting Standard of having arisen in the course of ordinary activities of the Group.
(e) | Goodwill |
There is no goodwill at the date of transition to A-IFRS.
In accordance with AASB 3 ‘Business Combinations’, the consolidated entity recognized an increase of goodwill of $13,743,547 for the year ended June 30, 2005.
Further, goodwill, which was amortized under superseded policies, is not amortized under A-IFRS from the date of acquisition for those business combinations restated. The effect of this change is an increase in the carrying amount of goodwill by $973,923 and a decrease in net loss before tax of $973,923 for the financial year ended and as at June 30, 2005. There is no tax effect as deferred taxes are not recognized for temporary differences arising from goodwill from which amortization is not deductible for tax purposes.
These adjustments had no effect in the financial statements of pSivida Limited.
(f) | Deferred income tax |
Under superseded policies, the consolidated entity adopted tax-effect accounting principles whereby income tax expense was calculated on pre-tax accounting profits after adjustment for permanent differences. The tax-effect of timing differences, which occur when items were included or allowed for income tax purposes in a period different to that for accounting purposes, were recognized at current taxation rates as deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, as applicable.
Under A-IFRS, deferred tax is determined using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their corresponding tax bases.
The effect of the deferred tax adjustments on deferred tax balances is as follows:

Note: The above roll-forward does not include options and warrants issued as settlement of share issue costs as such issuances do not have an impact on net loss or total equity.
(a) | Share-based compensation expense |
Under A-IFRS, the Company adopted AASB 2: ‘Share-Based Payment’ effective July 1, 2005. In accordance with the transitional provisions of AASB 2, the standard has been applied retrospectively to all share-based payments granted or issued after November 7, 2002 and that were not yet vested as of January 1, 2005.
Through June 30, 2005, the Company accounted for share-based payments granted to employees and directors under US GAAP using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (‘APB’) Opinion No. 25: ‘Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees’ (‘APB 25’) and related interpretations to measure employee stock compensation. Under APB 25, compensation expense was recognized to the extent that the quoted market price of the stock exceeded the exercise price of the equity instrument, if any, at the measurement date, and was charged to earnings ratably over the vesting period. For options that vest upon the achievement of performance conditions beyond the Company’s control, compensation expense was recognized when the target was achieved.
The following table illustrates the effect on US GAAP net loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (‘SFAS’) No. 123: ‘Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation’ (‘SFAS 123’) to stock-based employee compensation for the year ended June 30, 2005.

Additionally, through June 30, 2005, the Company accounted for share-based payments granted to consultants under SFAS 123 and EITF Issue No. 96-18: ‘Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services’ (‘EITF 96-18’) under US GAAP. Under SFAS 123 and EITF 96-18, compensation cost was calculated based on the estimated fair value of the equity instruments measured on the date the services were completed by the respective consultants. For reporting periods prior to the measurement date, interim measures of compensation cost were recognized based on the fair value as of each reporting date and adjusted for changes in fair value between reporting dates.
Effective July 1, 2005, for US GAAP purposes the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, ‘Share-Based Payment’ (‘SFAS 123R’) which replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. SFAS 123R does not change the measurement guidance of EITF 96-18 for non-employee transactions. Under the modified prospective method of SFAS 123R, the Company applies SFAS 123R for equity-based compensation awards (or portion thereof): (i) granted on or after July 1, 2005; and (ii) not yet vested as of July 1, 2005. Such equity-based compensation awards are measured based on the fair value using the Black-Scholes model. The compensation is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period. Prior periods have not been restated.
Total US GAAP share based compensation costs charged to the statement of operations was $1,953,056 and $281,222 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. No income tax benefits were recognized and no compensation cost was capitalized as part of property and equipment during the periods presented.
The retrospective transition provisions of AASB 2 and the modified prospective transition provisions of SFAS 123R give rise to GAAP differences in share-based compensation for the year ended June 30, 2005. There are no US GAAP reconciling items attributable to share-based compensation for the year ended June 30, 2006 as the impact on compensation cost resulting from differences in the standards, such as the determination of the measurement date for share-based payments made to non-employees, is de minimis.
(b) | Fair value of equity instruments issued as consideration |
Under A-IFRS, the fair value of equity instruments issued as consideration in a purchase business combination is based on the quoted market price as of the date of consummation. Under US GAAP, the fair value of the equity instruments issued to effect a purchase business combination is based on the average quoted market price for a period of two days before and two days after the date the terms of the acquisition is agreed to and announced. Accordingly, for US GAAP purposes, the Company has recorded an increase to the value of identifiable intangible assets (where there is negative goodwill), the related deferred tax liability and goodwill, as appropriate. The increase in the value of identifiable intangible assets and the related deferred tax liability is amortized over the estimated useful life of the intangible of 12 years.
(c) | In-process research and development |
Under A-IFRS, IPR&D projects acquired in a business combination are capitalized and remain on the balance sheet, subject to any impairment write-downs. Amortization is charged over the estimated useful life from the point when the assets became available for use. Under US GAAP, such assets are recognized in the purchase price allocation but are then written off immediately to the statement of operations, as the technological feasibility of the IPR&D has not yet been established and it has no alternative future use.
Under A-IFRS, deferred tax is provided for IPR&D assets acquired in a business combination. US GAAP does not provide for deferred tax on these assets, resulting in a reconciling adjustment to deferred tax and goodwill.

(d) | Sales of stock by subsidiaries |
In prior periods, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries issued additional shares which resulted in a change in pSivida’s proportionate interest in the respective subsidiaries. Under A-IFRS, the change in pSivida’s proportionate interest in the respective subsidiaries due to share issuances is eliminated on consolidation and therefore is not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Under US GAAP, the issuance of ordinary shares by a subsidiary is accounted for in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (‘SAB’) No. 51, ‘Accounting For Sales Of Stock By A Subsidiary’ (‘SAB 51’) which requires the difference between the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in a subsidiary and the underlying net book value of the subsidiary after issuance of ordinary shares by the subsidiary be reflected as either a gain or loss in the statement of operations or reflected as an equity transaction. The Company has elected to account for SAB 51 gains and losses resulting from the sale of a subsidiary’s ordinary shares as equity transactions. Accordingly, for US GAAP purposes, the Company has recorded an adjustment to the value of identifiable intangible assets, the related deferred tax liability and additional paid-in capital for the resulting SAB 51 gains and losses. The adjustment to the value of identifiable intangible assets and the related deferred tax liability is amortized over the estimated useful life of 12 years.
(e) | Sale and leaseback transaction |
Prior to the date of the acquisition of CDS (now pSivida Inc), CDS entered into a sale and leaseback transaction in relation to its premises, which resulted in a gain on sale of the premises.
Under A-IFRS, the gain on sale is recognised immediately on the date of the transaction, and therefore has been recognized as a pre-acquisition profit in the accounts of CDS for A-IFRS purposes. In accordance with US GAAP, the gain on sale is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease period of 36 months.
(f) | Loss per share |
Under A-IFRS, loss per share is calculated by dividing loss attributable to members of the parent entity by the weighted average number of shares on issue for the period. Methods of computing loss per share in accordance with US GAAP are documented in SFAS No. 128, ‘Earnings per Share’.
For the year ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, there were no differences in the calculation methodology of loss per share under A-IFRS and US GAAP.
Basic and diluted loss per share are identical for all periods presented as potentially dilutive securities, including options, warrants and convertible debt, have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted net loss per common share because the inclusion of such securities would be antidilutive.
(g) | Foreign currency translation adjustment |
At the date of transition to A-IFRS, the Company elected to reset the foreign currency cumulative translation adjustment to zero under A-IFRS, with the offset recorded against the opening balance of accumulated deficit. US GAAP does not allow the foreign currency cumulative translation adjustment to be reset. This GAAP difference has no impact on net loss or total equity.
(h) | Convertible note |
Upon initial recognition, the proceeds received on the issue of the convertible note with detachable warrants are allocated into liability and equity components. In accordance with A-IFRS, the liability component is measured based on the fair value of a similar liability (including any embedded non-equity derivative features) that does not have an associated equity component. The equity component is determined by deducting the liability component from the proceeds received on the issue of the notes. A portion of the liability proceeds is then allocated to any embedded derivatives that require bifurcation, at an amount equal to fair value. In accordance with US GAAP, the proceeds received are first allocated to the convertible note and the detachable warrants on a relative fair value basis. Then, a portion of convertible note proceeds is allocated to any embedded derivatives, such as the holder’s conversion option, that require bifurcation, at an amount equal to fair value. The resulting difference under these recognition methods of the convertible note is de minimis and therefore is not included in the US GAAP reconciliation.
(i) | Balance sheet classification differences |
Under A-IFRS, subsequent events are not considered when determining the appropriate classification of debt at the balance sheet date. Under US GAAP, subsequent events are considered when short term obligations have been refinanced after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued, resulting in the reclassification of a portion of the convertible note from current to long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2006.
74
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In Australian Dollars (except as otherwise stated)
Under A-IFRS, debt issuance costs are set off directly against the debt, while under US GAAP, the debt issuance costs are included within the balance sheet as a deferred asset.
Under A-IFRS, all deferred tax balances are classified as non-current. Under US GAAP, deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current based on the classification of assets and liabilities to which timing differences relate, or anticipated timing of reversal if they are not associated with any balance sheet items.
Under A-IFRS, the restricted cash associated with the convertible note is disclosed as a component of cash and cash equivalents. Under US GAAP, the amount is classified separately from cash and cash equivalents as restricted cash on the face of the balance sheet.
(j) | Statement of operation differences |
Under A-IFRS, the Company does not distinguish between operating and non-operating income (loss). Under US GAAP, interest income and finance costs are classified as a component of non-operating income (loss).
Under A-IFRS, the Company classifies intangible asset amortization expense as a component of “selling, general and administrative” expenditure. Under US GAAP, amortization of intangible assets used in research and development activities is classified as a component of “research and development” expenditure.
(k) | Other |
Other potential GAAP differences that were considered but not included in the US GAAP reconciliation are as follows:
Principles of consolidation / step acquisitions
Under A-IFRS, the minority interest is presented in the balance sheet within equity, separately from the parent shareholders’ equity. Under US GAAP, the minority interest is presented outside equity, between liabilities and equity. This did not result in a reconciling item as all subsidiaries are wholly-owned as of June 30, 2006 and 2005.
A-IFRS does not include prescriptive guidance on accounting for step acquisitions. In the absence of such guidance, the Company applied the partial-step up method in US GAAP for A-IFRS purposes. Other than as detailed in the paragraphs above, there is no difference in the accounting treatment for step acquisitions under US GAAP compared to that under A-IFRS as applied by the Company.
Receivables
There is no difference in the accounting treatment of receivables under US GAAP compared to that required under A-IFRS in the Company’s circumstances.
Impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets
Under A-IFRS and US GAAP, goodwill is not amortized but reviewed for impairment annually and when indicators of impairment arise. Under A-IFRS, the impairment test is performed at the cash-generating unit level, being the lowest level to which goodwill can be allocated. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (i.e., the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use) is compared to its carrying amount. The impairment loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss the excess of the carrying amount over the recoverable amount. Under US GAAP, the impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level, being either a business segment or one organization level below. A two step impairment test is performed: (i) the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to the carrying amount of the reporting unit including goodwill; and (ii) the goodwill impairment is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over its implied fair value. The impairment loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss. There is no goodwill impairment for the periods presented, and hence no GAAP difference.
Under A-IFRS and US GAAP, long-lived assets are tested for impairment if there is any such indication. Under A-IFRS, impairment is indicated, and a detailed calculation must be performed, if the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The impairment loss is based on the recoverable amount. Under US GAAP, impairment is indicated, and a detailed calculation must be performed, if the asset’s carrying amount exceeds the expected future cash flows to be derived from the asset on an undiscounted basis. The impairment loss is based on the fair value. There were no indicators of impairment during the periods presented, and hence no GAAP difference.

Current and deferred income taxes
As applied to the Company, there is no difference in the accounting treatment of current and deferred income taxes, other than the deferred tax impact of US GAAP adjustments arising from the differences referred to above and the balance sheet classification difference.
Provisions
Under A-IFRS and US GAAP, provisions relating to present obligations from past events are recorded if the outflow of resources is probable and can be reliably estimated. A-IFRS requires the time value of money to be taken into account when making a provision. In contrast, US GAAP only permits a provision to be discounted where the amount of the liability and timing of payments are fixed or reliably determinable, or where the obligation is a fair value obligation (e.g., asset retirement obligation). Where there is a range of possible outcomes, A-IFRS requires a provision for the expected value to be made. If a range of estimates is predicted and no amount in the range is more likely than any other amount in the range, the ‘mid-point’ of the range is used to measure the liability Under US GAAP, where the liability is not measured at fair value and there is a range of possible outcomes and no amount in the range is more likely than any other amount in the range, the ‘minimum’ (rather than the ‘mid-point’) amount is used to measure the liability. Due to the nature of the provisions recorded by the Company, the difference in accounting policies did not result in a GAAP difference.
Registration rights agreement
Under A-IFRS and US GAAP, the Company accounts for the financial instrument and related registration rights agreement separately as freestanding instruments. The Company records a liability for the penalties payable pursuant to the liquidated damages clause per the registration rights agreement in the period in which the penalty is triggered. The Company believes the registration rights agreement does not meet the definition of a derivative in accordance with A-IFRS and US GAAP. Based on the Company’s accounting policies, there is no difference in the accounting treatment for a registration rights agreement under US GAAP compared to that under A-IFRS as applied by the Company.

(a) | Intangible assets |
Assuming no acquisitions, the Company expects to recognize aggregate US GAAP intangible asset amortization expense of $13,336,030 for each of the five succeeding fiscal years.
(b) | Income tax |
The components of A-IFRS loss from ordinary activities before income tax expense consisted of the following for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005:

As at June 30, 2006, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of $28,446,347. The United States State Tax carry-forwards expire from 2007 to 2014. For the other jurisdictions in which the Company incurs losses, the carry-forwards do not expire on a time basis. Expiration will depend on the legislation of the countries in which losses are incurred, and will generally be triggered by a change in control or business activity.

(e) | Recently issued but not yet adopted US GAAP pronouncements |
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘FASB’) issued SFAS No. 154: ‘Accounting Changes and Error Corrections’ (‘SFAS 154’), a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20: ‘Accounting Changes’ and SFAS No. 3: ‘Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements’, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 (fiscal 2007 for the Company). SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a voluntary change in accounting principle as well as the changes required by an accounting pronouncement which does not include specific transition provisions. At this time management reasonably believes that the adoption of SFAS 154 will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, ‘Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes’ (‘FIN 48’) as an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, ‘Accounting for Income Taxes’. This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits previously recognized and additional disclosures for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this Interpretation begins with a determination as to whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement for recognition in the financial statements. FIN 48 is effective no later than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is required to be adopted by the Company on July 1, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of FIN 48.
In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, ‘Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Qualifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements’ (‘SAB 108’) which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for companies with fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006 and is required to be adopted by the Company in fiscal 2007. However, early application is encouraged in any report for an interim period of the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006, filed after the publication of this guidance. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of SAB 108.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, ‘Fair Value Measurements’ (‘SFAS 157’). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Statement is required to be adopted by the Company on July 1, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this Statement.
