Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Oxitec Limited

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Oxitec Limited and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2014, and the related consolidated profit and loss account, statement of total recognised gains and losses, cash flow statement, reconciliation of net cash flow to movement in net debt, and notes to the financial statements for the year then ended.
Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (Effective April 2008) and the Companies Act 2006 applicable to small groups (together “United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities”); this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design 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. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above:

give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs as at 31 December 2014 and of its loss and cash flows for the year then ended; and
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities.
Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to Note 22, which reconciles the results for the period from United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities (FRSSE) to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP). Significant differences exist between United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities and US GAAP. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Other matter

We draw attention to the fact that these financial statements have not been prepared under section 394 of the Companies Act 2006 and are not the company’s statutory financial statements.

Oxitec Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 December 2014
1.    Accounting policies

Principal activities

The principal activity of Oxitec Limited (the “Company”) and subsidiaries (“the Group”, “Oxitec”or “we”) during the year was research and development in biotechnology. Oxitec is a pioneer in controlling insects that spread disease and damage crops. Through world class science we have developed an innovative new solution to controlling harmful insect pests.

Basis of preparation of financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared solely for the purpose of meeting the requirements of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X following the acquisition of Oxitec by Intrexon Corporation (“Intrexon”) on 27 August 2015. These financial statements are not the statutory financial statements of the Company or Group. Accordingly, these financial statements do not present information on Oxitec Limited as a separate legal entity. These non-statutory financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (Effective April 2008) and the Companies Act 2006 applicable to small groups (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities) which have been applied consistently (except as otherwise stated).

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. No comparative information has been presented in these financial statements as no comparatives are required under SEC Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X. However, this is a departure from generally accepted accounting practice in the United Kingdom as comparative figures are required.

US GAAP

Significant differences exist between United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities and US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP). The US GAAP results for the period and the effect on Group total shareholders' funds are set out in Note 22.

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the company and its subsidiary undertakings made up to the end of the financial year. Intra-group transactions are excluded on consolidation and sales and profit figures relate to external transactions only.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Since the year end, the Company has raised £4,553,800 of additional working capital through an issue of shares to existing and new investors. Following the acquisition of the Company by Intrexon, the directors have also received a letter of support from Intrexon to provide the Company with sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the directors consider that the going concern assumption is appropriate.

Research and development

Research and development expenditure is written off in the year in which it is incurred. Research and development tax credits are recognised on a receipt basis.

Oxitec Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2014
1.    Accounting policies (continued)

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Plant & machinery
-
5 years
Office equipment
-
3 years

Assets in the course of construction are included in tangible fixed assets as construction in progress on the basis of expenditure incurred at the balance sheet date and are not depreciated until brought into use.

Investments

Investments held as fixed assets are shown at cost less provision for impairment.

Operating leases

Rentals under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Foreign currencies

Profit and loss account of the overseas subsidiary undertakings are translated at average exchange rates for the year. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Differences arising from the re-translation of the opening net investment in the overseas subsidiary undertakings to year end rates are taken to reserves.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction.

Exchange gains and losses are recognised in the profit and loss account.

Government and other grants

Government and other grants of a revenue nature are credited to the Profit and loss account in the same period as the related expenditure is incurred. Where there is significant uncertainty over the timing or amount of grant income, this is only recognised on a receipts basis.

Pensions

The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Group to the fund in respect of the year. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Group.

The Group Auto-enrolment staging date is October 2015 and actions are underway to complete implementation in Quarter 3 2015.

For the year ended 31 December 2014
1.    Accounting policies (continued)

Deferred taxation

Full provision is made for deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from all timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in the financial statements and recognition in the tax computation. A net deferred tax asset is recognised only if it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates expected to be effective at the time the timing differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Financial instruments

Convertible loan notes are held as liabilities on the face of the balance sheet, split between current and non-current, dependant on the maturity date of the loan notes. The liability is recognised at the principal amount plus any accrued interest or compounded interest accruable on the loan notes.

Unrelieved tax losses of approximately £15,000,000 remain available for offset against future taxable trading profits, prior to any research and development tax relief claims for the current year. The Group has not recognised any deferred tax asset in respect of these losses due to there being significant uncertainty regarding the recovery of these losses against taxable trading profits in the forseeable future.

a)
Share based compensation expense
Under the UK FRSSE, there is no requirement to recognise equity settled share based compensation expense. Under US GAAP, equity classified awards are recognised as compensation expense and are measured at the grant date fair value of the award over the vesting period. The Company has estimated the grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model.

b)
Convertible loans
Under the UK FRSSE, financial instruments are classified as a financial liability, a financial asset or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Under the UK FRSSE the convertible loans are recognised as a liability at cost. Under US GAAP, the Company has elected to report its convertible loans under the Fair Value Option Subsections of FASB ASC Subtopic 825‑10, Financial Instruments—Overall, with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The profit and loss account adjustment of £197,116 and total shareholders’ deficit adjustment of £782,294 reflect the incremental impact of applying a fair basis of measurement to the amounts recorded under the UK FRSSE since the date that the instruments were issued.
