Chief Executive Officer's statement

Background

Reliance GeneMedix is a globally-focused biopharmaceutical company, specialising in the development and manufacture of high-quality, cost-effective treatments for some of the world's most serious diseases. Since February 2007, the Company has been part of the Reliance Life Sciences Group of companies. The Company is working towards the development, manufacture and marketing of a portfolio of biosimilar recombinant therapeutic proteins for global markets.

Business overview

I am pleased to present the results for the financial year 2011 - 2012, during which the Company received scientific advice from the European Medicines Agency ('EMA') re validatation of its revised Erythropoietin ('EPO') development programme. Based on this scientific advice from EMA, the Company has realigned its EPO development programme and initiated work on the revised programme. The Company continues to market EPO in India through Reliance Life Sciences. The Company is also in the process of registering EPO in other markets through the international marketing group of Reliance Life Sciences.

As in the past few years, the Company has been able to sustain its product development programmes based on the financial support received from Reliance Life Sciences which has also confirmed its continuing financial support of the Company's development programme.

Proposed cancellation of admission of ordinary shares to trading on AIM

The Company announced on 5 September 2012 the proposed cancellation of admission of its ordinary shares to trading on AIM and the proposed re-registration of the Company as a private limited company and the associated adoption of new articles of association. A circular has been sent to the Company's shareholders and the Board recommends that they vote in favour of the proposals. The Company has been informed by Reliance Life Sciences B.V., which holds 79.6 per cent. of the ordinary shares, that it intends to vote in favour of the resolutions and, consequently, it is expected that the resolutions will be passed.

It is anticipated that trading of the ordinary shares on AIM will cease at the close of business on 5 October 2012 and the effective date of the de-listing will be 8 October 2012.

Financial review

Operating losses of EUR2.112 million (2011: EUR2.137 million) for the period are in line with budget and reflect planned expenditure. The Company continues to exercise strict financial discipline and cost control in order to run its operations and development programmes in a cost-effective manner.

The Company has capitalised development expenditure of EUR1.391 million (2011: EUR2.615 million) incurred on the EPO development programme. The Board has concluded that the capitalisation of EPO development costs remains appropriate and in accordance with the criteria of IAS 38 as set out in Note 2.6(c) to the financial statements despite the need to revise the EPO development programme as referred to above. Current assets and current liabilities are in line with the level of operations of the Company.

The expenditure during the year was financed through a loan from Reliance Life Sciences. The loan from Reliance Life Sciences will also cover planned 2012 - 2013 funding requirements.

Employee commitment

I would like to thank the staff of the Company for their dedication and commitment to the development and manufacturing programmes and look forward to their ongoing commitment for the coming year. The Board is committed to talent and skill development through internal and external training initiatives and also to reward employees for excellent performance.

Corporate governance

The Board has established an Audit Committee, Remuneration Committee and Nominations Committee with formally delegated duties and responsibilities.

The Audit Committee consists of all the independent Non-Executive Directors and is chaired by Mr Dileep Choksi. The Audit Committee normally meets twice a year and has responsibility for, among other things, planning and reviewing the annual report and accounts and interim statements and involving, where appropriate, the auditors. The Committee also approves auditors' fees, reviews auditor independence and focuses on compliance with legal requirements and accounting standards. It is also responsible for ensuring that an effective system of internal controls is maintained. The ultimate responsibility for reviewing and approving the annual accounts and interim statement remains with the Board.

The Remuneration Committee is made up of all the independent Non-Executive Directors and is chaired by Dr R. A. Mashelkar. The Remuneration Committee, which meets as required, but at least once a year, has responsibility for making recommendations to the Board on the compensation of senior executives and determining, within agreed terms of reference, the specific remuneration packages for each of the Executive Directors.

The Nominations Committee comprises the Chairman and all of the independent Non-Executive Directors and is chaired by Dr R. A. Mashelkar. The Nominations Committee has responsibility for reviewing the size and composition of the Board and the appointment of replacement and or additional directors and making appropriate recommendations to the Board.
