Capital management<br />

When managing capital, the Board’s objective is to ensure the Group continues as a going concern as<br />

well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management<br />

also aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.<br />

The Board may in the future adjust the capital structure to take advantage of favourable costs of capital<br />

and issue further shares in the market.<br />

Management monitors capital by reviewing the level of cash on hand, future revenue streams and<br />

assessing the impact of possible future commitments in respect of the potential capital structure that<br />

would be required to meet those potential commitments.<br />

Dividends<br />

No dividends were paid or declared by the Company since the incorporation of the Company.<br />

Nature and purpose of other reserves<br />

The share option reserve is used to recognise the value of options or performance rights issued in lieu<br />

of cash payments, issued to employees and Key Management Personnel as remuneration, and to<br />

recognise the proceeds received on issue of options and performance rights.<br />

The share-based payments reserve is used to recognise the value of shares issued in lieu of cash<br />

payments and is allocated the vested portion of the employee share purchase plan over the vesting<br />

period.<br />

The other reserve covers the equity component of the issued convertible notes. The liability component<br />

is reflected in financial liabilities. It also includes the change of value in the collateral shares issued,<br />

refunded and reissued.<br />
