NOTE 9 – CONCENTRATIONS AND RISKS

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash in banks and financial institutions in Australia. Bank deposits in Australian banks are uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through March 31, 2017.

 

Receivable Concentration

 

As of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the Company’s receivables were 100% related to reimbursements on GST taxes paid.

 

Patent and Patent Concentration

 

The Company has filed six patent applications relating to its lead product, PRP. This application has been granted and remains in force in Australia, Japan, Indonesia, Israel, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa. In the United States, the application has been allowed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office but has not yet been issued pending the payment of the issue fee. In Brazil, Canada, China, Europe, Malaysia, Mexico and South Korea, the patent application remains under examination.

 

In 2016 and early 2017 we filed five other patent applications. Two applications were filed in Spain, where one is currently under examination, and one was filed in the United States. Two others were filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (the “PCT”). The PCT assists applicants in seeking patent protection by filing one international patent application under the PCT, applicants can simultaneously seek protection for an invention in over 150 countries. Once filed, the application is placed under the control of the national or regional patent offices, as applicable, in what is called the national phase.

 

Further patent applications are expected to be filed to capture and protect additional patentable subject matter based on the Company’s field of technology relating to pharmaceutical compositions of proenzymes for treating cancer.

 

Foreign Operations

 

As of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the Company’s operations are based in Australia.

 

On July 22, 2016, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Propanc (UK) Limited under the laws of England and Wales for the purpose of submitting an orphan drug application to the European Medicines Agency as a small and medium-sized enterprise. As of March 31, 2017, there has been no activity within this entity.
