20262025
Current3,031 2,680

Lease liabilities included in the balance sheet8,099 6,263 
The lease liability is measured at the present value of the fixed and variable lease payments net of cash lease incentives that are not paid at the balance date. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability using the incremental borrowing rate to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Lease payments for buildings exclude service fees for cleaning and other costs. The interest expense (included in finance costs within the Consolidated Income Statement) for leases were $0.5 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024, total payments associated with lease liabilities were $2.8 million, $2.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
Payments associated with short-term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, contracts that contain lease and non-lease components that are cancellable within 12 months and leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. The expense relating to short-term leases was $Nil for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
(ii)    Depreciation methods and useful lives of right-of-use assets
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts over the estimated useful lives. Depreciation for leases relating to buildings for the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024 was $1.3 million, $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
Depreciation for the lease relating to manufacturing for the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024 were $0.7 million, $0.8 million, and $1.2 million, respectively, in the Consolidated Income Statement and $0.4 million, $Nil and $Nil were capitalized into inventory in the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(iii)    Extension and termination options
Extension options and termination options may be included in the right-of-use asset leases across the Group. These are used to maximize operational flexibility in terms of managing the assets used in the Group’s operations.
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options and periods after termination options are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended or not terminated.
A right-of-use asset and lease liability has been recognized in relation to the manufacturing service agreement ("MSA") entered into in June 2025 with Lonza Biosciences Singapore Pte. Ltd. ("Lonza"), a global leader in biopharmaceutical manufacturing, which replaced the Group's prior MSAs with Lonza, for the supply of commercial product for the launch of Ryoncil® for the treatment of SR-aGVHD in the US market. Management has determined that this agreement has a non-cancellable lease term expiring within 2 years from June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, the anticipated future contractual cash flows relating to the lease component of the Lonza agreement are $3.6 million on an undiscounted basis, as included within lease liabilities in Note 10(c). The anticipated future contractual cash flows exclude cashflows beyond the non-cancellable lease term as it is not reasonably certain the Group will extend the agreement.
See Note 22(v) for other accounting policies relevant to lease accounting.

(1)    In December 2024, the Group reclassified $102.7 million from in-process research and development ("IPRD") acquired to current marketed products upon receiving FDA approval for Ryoncil® for the treatment of pediatric SR-aGVHD. As a result of this reclassification, the asset is now being amortized on a straight line basis over its useful life through to expected patent expiry which is in 21 years.
(2)     In April 2026, the Group acquired an exclusive worldwide license to a patented chimeric antigen receptor ("CAR") technology platform for precision-enhanced augmentation of therapeutic mesenchymal stromal cell ("MSC") products and related intellectual property developed from Mayo Clinic research. The acquisition was completed through the issuance of 1,260,589 ordinary shares.

For all products included within the above balances, the underlying currency of each item recorded is US$.
(ii)    Amortization methods and useful lives
The Group amortizes intangible assets with a finite useful life using the straight-line method over the following periods:
Acquired licenses to patents 7 – 18 years
Current marketed products 16 – 22 years
See Note 22(p) for the other accounting policies relevant to intangible assets and Note 22(j) for the Group’s policy regarding impairments.
(iii)    Significant estimate: Impairment of goodwill and assets with an indefinite useful life
The Group tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired, whether goodwill and its assets with indefinite useful lives have suffered any impairment in accordance with its accounting policy stated in Note 22(j). The recoverable amounts of these assets and cash-generating units have been determined based on fair value less costs to dispose calculations, which require the use of market-participant assumptions that are based on development strategies using external data sources as well as past experience. The full annual impairment assessment was performed at March 31, 2026 and no impairment of the in-process research and development and goodwill was identified.
(iv)    Impairment tests for goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life
The Group has recognized goodwill as a result of two separate acquisitions. Goodwill of $118.4 million was recognized on acquisition of Angioblast Systems Inc. in 2010, $13.9 million was recognized on the acquisition of the MSC assets from Osiris (“MSC business combination”) in 2013 and $2.1 million was recognized on finalization of the MSC business combination of Osiris in 2015. In all cases the goodwill recognized represented excess in the purchase price over the net identifiable assets and in-process research and development acquired in the transaction.
On acquisition, goodwill was not able to be allocated to the cash generating unit (“CGU”) level or to a group of CGU given the synergies of the underlying research and development. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is monitored by management at the operating segment level. The Group is managed as one operating segment, being the development of cell technology platform for commercialization.
IFRS requires that acquired in-process research and development be measured at fair value upon acquisition and carried as an indefinite life intangible asset subject to annual impairment reviews. The Group have recognized in-process research and development as a result of two separate acquisitions. In-process research and development of $387.0 million was recognized on the acquisition of Angioblast Systems Inc. in 2010 and $126.7 million was recognized on the acquisition of assets from Osiris in 2013 of which $24.0 million was reclassified to current marketed products in March 2016 upon the TEMCELL asset becoming available for use in Japan and $102.7 million was reclassified to current marketed products in December 2024 upon FDA approval of Ryoncil® for the treatment of pediatric SR-aGVHD.
In 2016, the Group fully impaired $61.9 million of in-process research and development relating to our product candidates, MPC-MICRO-IO for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration and MPC-CBE for the expansion of
hematopoietic stem cells within cord blood, as the Group suspended further patient enrollment of the Phase IIa MPC-MICRO-IO clinical trial and the Phase III MPC-CBE clinical trial as the Group prioritized the funding of its lead product candidates. The Group still believe these product candidates remain viable upon further funding, or partnership, and accordingly these products should not be regarded as abandoned, where typically, abandoned programs would be closed down and the related research and development efforts are considered impaired and the asset is fully expensed.
The remaining carrying amount of in-process research and development as at June 30, 2026 was $325.1 million and June 30, 2025 was $325.1 million.
In-process research and development acquired is considered to be an indefinite life intangible asset on the basis that it is incomplete and cannot be used in its current form (see Note 22(p)(iii)). The intangible asset’s life will remain indefinite until such time it is completed and commercialized or impaired. The carrying value of in-process research and development is a separate asset which has been subject to impairment testing at the cash generating unit level, which has been determined to be at the product level.
The recoverable amount of both goodwill, in-process research and development and currently marketed products was assessed as of March 31, 2026 based on the fair value less costs to dispose. No impairment was identified as a result of this impairment assessment. Management assessed for indicators of impairment as at June 30, 2026, including considering events up to the date of the approval of the financial statements. No impairment indicators as at June 30, 2026 were identified.
(v)    Key assumptions used for fair value less costs to dispose calculations
In determining the fair value less costs to dispose the Group has given consideration to the following internal and external indicators:
discounted expected future cash flows of programs valued by the Group’s internal valuation team and reviewed by the Head of Finance The valuation team also manages a process to continually refine the key assumptions within the model. This is done with input from the relevant business units. The key assumptions in the model have been clearly defined and the responsibility for refining those assumptions has been assigned to the most relevant business units. When determining key assumptions, the business units refer to both external sources and past experience as appropriate. The valuation is considered to be level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to unobservable inputs used in the valuation;
the scientific results and progress of the trials since acquisition;
the market capitalization of the Group on the ASX (ASX:MSB);
the valuation of the Group’s assets from an independent valuation. An independent valuation was obtained for all assets at March 31, 2026; and
the full annual impairment assessment performed by the Group at March 31, 2026.
Costs of disposal were assumed to be immaterial.
Discounted cash-flows used a real post-tax discount rate range of 12.5% to 14.5%, and include estimated real cash inflows and outflows for each program through to expected patent expiry which ranges from 6 to 22 years.
In relation to cash outflows consideration has been given to cost of inventories, selling costs and clinical trial schedules including estimates of numbers of patients and per patient costs. Associated expenses such as regulatory fees and patent maintenance have been included as well as any further preclinical development if applicable.
In relation to cash inflows consideration has been given to product pricing, market population and penetration, sales rebates and discounts, launch timings and probability of success in the relevant applicable markets.
There are no standard growth rates applied, other than our estimates of market penetration which increase initially, plateau and then decline.
The assessment of the recoverable amount of each product has been made in accordance with the discounted cash-flow assumptions outlined above. The assessments showed that the recoverable amount of each product exceeds the carrying amount and therefore there is no impairment.
The assessment of goodwill showed the recoverable amount of the Group's operating segment, including goodwill and remaining in-process research and development, exceeds carrying amounts, and therefore there is no impairment.
(vi)    Impact of possible changes in key assumptions
The Group has considered and assessed reasonably possible changes in the key assumptions and has not identified any instances that could cause the carrying amount of our intangible assets to exceed its recoverable amount.
Whilst there is no impairment, the key sensitivities in the valuation are dependent on the continued successful development of our technology platforms. If the Group is unable to successfully develop our technology platforms, an impairment of the carrying amount of our intangible assets may result.
