CLINICAL TRIALS Phase II CALM Melanoma Clinical Trial (USA) - CAVATAK™
The Phase II clinical trial of CAVATAK™ in the treatment of Late stage Melanoma (the CALM study) currently being conducted under an IND in the USA at 11 cancer clinics in the US achieved a key milestone with the target enrolment of 54 patients on January 8, 2014. We continue to see very encouraging results with overall immune related Progression Free Survival (irPFS) of 35% at 6 months in 40 evaluable patients. The primary endpoint of the study required 10 patients from a total of 54 evaluable patients reporting irPFS at 6 months after the first dose of CAVATAK™. This endpoint was achieved in September 2013 in the first 30 evaluable patients. Phase I/II Multi-dose Intravenous CAVATAK™ Clinical Trial (UK) The Phase I/II STORM (Systemic Treatment Of Resistant Malignancies) clinical trial for late stage melanoma, non-small cell lung, metastatic bladder and castrate-resistant prostate cancer received final approval from the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency in September 2013. The STORM trial will be conducted at 3 leading cancer centres in the UK. The study will assess the activity of multi-intravenous dosing of CAVATAK™ in approximately 30 late stage subjects both in the presence and absence of standard of care chemotherapy. We anticipate the STORM study will commence in February 2014.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT This half-year financial report is a general-purpose interim financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB134; ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The half-year report does not include full disclosure of the type normally included in an annual financial report. The half-year financial report should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Report of Viralytics Limited (the Company) as at 30 June 2013. It is recommended that the half-year financial report be considered together with any public announcements made by the Company Limited during the half-year ended 31 December 2013 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001. Except as described below, the accounting policies applied by the Company in this half-year financial report are the same as those applied by the Company in the financial report as at and for the year ended 30 June 2013. Going Concern The financial report for the period ended 31 December 2013 is prepared on a going concern basis. Notwithstanding that the Company has a history of losses, it does have access to cash on hand ($3.3 million at balance date). On 30th January 2014 it announced a capital raising of up to $27.1 million. On 5th February settlement was achieved in respect of the 1st tranche placement of $6.1 million. The 2nd tranche placement for $16.9 million is subject to shareholder approval at a General Meeting of the company on 6th March 2014. The Directors consider that the Company has sufficient funds to meet all of its foreseeable expenditure and debts as and when they fall due. a) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short- term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.
b) Financial Instruments Recognition Financial Instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT continued b) Financial Instruments continued Financial Assets at fair value through profit and loss A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term, or if so designated by management and within the requirement of AASB139: ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’. Financial Assets at fair value through profit and loss continued Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these assets are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise. Loans and Receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Available-For-Sale Financial Assets Available-for-sale financial assets are reflected at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity. c) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date the Company reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT continued d) Inventories The manufacture of CAVATAK™ drug stock during the clinical trials forms part of the ongoing research and development activities of the Company. In accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 102 “Inventories”, inventories shall be measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. As the drug stock is not held for sale in the ordinary course of business, there is no value recorded in the financial statements. e) Plant and Equipment Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their current values in determining recoverable amounts. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis on all plant and equipment. The major depreciation periods are: Computer Equipment: 2-3 years Furniture & Fittings 5 years The assets residual value and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying value is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amounts. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT continued f) Investments in Associates
Investments in associate companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting where significant influence is exercised over an investee. Significant influence exists where the investor has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investees but does not have control or joint control over these policies. g) Intangibles
Patents Patents are recognised at the cost of acquisition. Patents have a finite life and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Patents are amortised over their useful lives of 20 years or less. Amounts incurred in acquiring and extending patents are expensed as incurred, except to the extent that such costs are expected beyond any reasonable doubt to be recoverable. Intellectual Property Intellectual property has been brought to account at cost of acquisition. The technology was originally acquired under a two year licence in July 2004. In December 2006, the licensing agreement was terminated on the assignment of the intellectual property to the Company. Initial payments to acquire the licence were amortised over the period of the licence (2 years). Payments made on assignment of the Intellectual Property are being written off over the life of the shortest patent (14 years). h) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year or later than one year have been measured at the amounts that are expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. It is immaterial to measure the employee benefits payable later than one year at the present value of expected future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Notes to the financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2013

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT continued j) Revenue Recognition
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when goods are delivered to customers. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of services. Revenue from government incentives such as Research and Development tax concession is recognised when the eligibility criteria are met and it is probable that such tax concession will be received. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). k) Research and Development Expenditure
Amounts incurred on research and development activities are expensed as incurred, except to the extent that such costs are expected beyond any reasonable doubt to be recoverable.
l) Income Taxes The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the profit or loss except when it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. At present, no deferred tax assets are recognised by the company. The amount of benefits which may be brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the company complying with the conditions of deductibility imposed by Australian taxation law and the anticipation that the company will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised. It is also assumed that no adverse changes will occur in income taxation legislation.

Receivables and Payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. n) Comparative Figures

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES/GUARANTEE
Viralytics Ltd, guarantees the performance of the obligations of InJet Digital Aerosols Limited (see also Note 4) in the license agreement between Canon Inc and InJet Digital Aerosols Limited. The guarantee relates to an initial amount of $1 million and other non-specified amounts. InJet Digital Aerosols Limited advised its shareholders on 31 May 2010 that Canon Inc had placed on hold the project for the development of an inhalation device using the licensed InJet technology. Canon has further informally advised Injet management of its preparedness to release Injet from the license agreement; however no formal notification of cancellation has been received. No legal advice has been sought as to the effect on the guarantee of this decision, but the above action by Canon Inc would appear to limit any potential claim they could make if they were to invoke the guarantee.
At the date of this report there are no other known contingent liabilities.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On 30th January 2014, the Company announced a capital raising of up to $27.1 million with $23 million to be raised through a two tranche placement and $4.1 million from a 1 for 6 rights issue. The 1st tranche placement totalling $6.1 million was received and shares allotted on 5th February. The 2nd tranche placement for $16.9 million is subject to shareholder approval at a General Meeting of the company on 6th March 2014. There have not been any other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the period, that have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company after the half-year period.

responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other reviewprocedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordancewith Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance
that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit.Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
