Advanced Health Intelligence Ltd secures $2.27
million R&D Reimbursement Under Australia’s Research and Development Tax Incentive Scheme (R&DTI)
South Perth, Australia December 28, 2023
- Advanced Health Intelligence Ltd (ASX/NASDAQ: AHI) (“AHI” or the “Company”) is pleased to inform shareholders
that the company will receive $2,278,757 from the Australian Tax Office under the Australian Government Research and Development Tax
Incentive Scheme (R&DTI).
Since 2017, AHI has consistently achieved positive
outcomes in obtaining reimbursement grants, a testament to the company’s robust R&D strategies and adherence to regulatory standards
whilst building world-class intellectual property (IP) that is built and owned in Australia. The reimbursement of $2,278,757 for this
fiscal period brings AHI’s total reimbursements from the Australian Government’s R&DTI to an impressive $15,638,757. The continued
financial backing provided by the Australian Government to companies like AHI is a crucial factor in propelling the development of pioneering
globally valuable solutions, building Australia’s intellectual property portfolio and solidifying AHI’s standing as an innovator
within the health technology sector.
This builds on the positive update shared with shareholders
on August 17, 20231, outlining AHI had received official approval for eligibility for Research and Development (R&D) reimbursements
pertaining to its overseas R&D expenditures. With this development, AHI anticipates a significant augmentation in the R&D expenditures
for the fiscal year 2023-2024, which will now include international expenses, a further acknowledgement of the globally unique nature
of AHI’s R&D and technology. This is expected to contribute to an increase in annual reimbursements, continuing the year-over-year
reimbursement growth AHI has enjoyed.
This financial incentive bolsters AHI’s dedication
to pioneering research and aligns with the Australian Government’s robust support for advancing global research initiatives and Australian-owned
IP development. It reflects AHI meets both the stringent eligibility criteria and the broader goals of the R&D reimbursement program,
designed to foster innovation and growth within the industry.
The $2,278,757 reimbursement will significantly
contribute to AHI’s ongoing R&D initiatives, enabling the Company to invest in its team, cutting-edge technologies and methodologies
to drive future success and what we believe to be game-changing for global health.
A large part of AHI’s R&D efforts for
the fiscal year 2022-2023 has been to build out its Biometric health assessment (BHA). The BHA enables our partner’s end users to assess
their health risk using just a smartphone by calculating 61 health outputs across 5 health categories - cardio-respiratory, body composition,
blood biomarkers, metabolic health and mental health. This technology can enable billions of smartphone users globally to self-conduct
biometric health assessments using just their smartphone in approximately 12 minutes.

What is the Australian Government R &
D incentive scheme?
The Australian Government’s Research &
Development (R&D) reimbursement scheme is commonly referred to as the Research and Development Tax Incentive (R&DTI). It is designed
to encourage companies to engage in R&D activities that benefit Australia by providing a cash reimbursement or tax offset for eligible
R&D activities.
The program is jointly administered by the Australian
Taxation Office (ATO) and the Department of Industry, Science, Energy, and Resources, specifically through AusIndustry. The ATO manages
the tax-related aspects of the program, while the AusIndustry oversees the registration and eligibility requirements for R&D activities.
The R&DTI is designed to encourage companies,
regardless of their size or industry, to engage in R&D activities that benefit Australia. By providing a cash reimbursement or tax
offset for eligible R&D activities, the scheme incentivises businesses to invest in innovative projects that can lead to technological
advancements, economic growth, intellectual property development and job creation.
To qualify for the R&DTI, companies must undertake
eligible R&D activities that are experimental and have an outcome that cannot be known or determined in advance. These activities
must be conducted for the purpose of generating new knowledge, including new or improved materials, products, devices, processes, or
services.
The R&DTI offers two core components, A refundable
tax offset of 43.5% for eligible entities with an aggregated turnover of less than AUD 20 million per annum, provided they are not controlled
by income tax-exempt entities or a non-refundable tax offset of 38.5% for all other eligible entities.
AusIndustry oversees the registration and eligibility
requirements for R&D activities, providing guidance and support to companies in understanding and meeting the criteria.
The R&DTI has been instrumental in promoting
a culture of innovation within Australia, helping businesses offset some of the costs associated with experimental R&D activities.
By reducing the financial risks, the scheme enables companies to pursue ambitious projects that might otherwise be beyond their reach.
Companies wishing to avail themselves of the R&DTI
must first register their R&D activities with AusIndustry. Following registration, they can claim the tax offset in their income
tax return. The application process is detailed and requires careful documentation of the R&D activities, including objectives, methodologies,
and expenditures. More information can be found at
