TRUSTEES’ REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2023

INTRODUCTION

The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their report for the year ended 31 March 2023. This report is prepared in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and in accordance with applicable law.

Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (the company) has complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (GALVmed) is a company limited by guarantee and is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission and the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR). It is incorporated in the UK with its principal office in Edinburgh, UK. Other offices are maintained in New Delhi, India (South Asia office); and Nairobi, Kenya (Africa office). Other reference and administrative details are set out in the previous section.

OBJECTS, OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objects

Around 900 million poor people rely on livestock for their livelihoods. The company’s objects, as set out in its Memorandum of Association, are for the benefit of the public:

GALVmed’s vision is the transformational improvement in the wellbeing and economic progression of SSPs. GALVmed’s mission is to contribute to the transformation of SSPs’ lives by:

Objectives & Activities

GALVmed achieves its charitable purpose by operating a series of Research and Development (R&D) and Commercialisation programmes, supported by Enabling Environment and Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) activities, funded principally by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and the UK Government through its Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). These programmes are designed to identify products that SSPs can use to improve the health of their animals and to make such products more easily accessible. The two largest of these programmes are Veterinary Innovations Transforming Animal Health and Livelihoods (VITAL), with a budget of $50m, and African Animal Trypanosomiasis 3 (AAT), with a budget of $22.5m. 6 other programmes are also being operated, with values ranging from $1.2m to $5.0m. All programmes are supported by the funding of project core costs through the VITAL Bridging programme, with a budget of $7.7m, except for AAT 3 and Agresults where project staff are funded directly (see note 12 for further information on all programmes).

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The governance of the company is the responsibility of the Trustees, and the company adopts the appropriate principles and recommended practices of the Charity Governance Code.

(a company limited by guarantee)

TRUSTEES’ REPORT

For the year ended 31 March 2023

The Members elect the Trustees in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Trustee Recruitment, Induction, Training and Evaluation

The maximum number of Trustees permitted by the company’s Articles is 10. Trustees are recruited for their individual skills and experience to fill current or impending vacancies, guided by a comprehensive skills and diversity matrix. Trustees serve a term of 3 years subject to a maximum of 2 consecutive terms and Board and AGM approval. Recruitment of Trustees is managed by a Trustee Selection Panel comprising 3 Trustees of which one is the HR Committee Chair. The Chair of the Board retired and a replacement Chair was appointed at the 2022 AGM. A replacement Trustee was also approved at the AGM and appointed in March 2023 following an extensive recruitment process. A further recruitment process is currently ongoing to identify candidates to replace Trustees due to retire at the 2023 AGM.

A formal Trustee induction process is in place to ensure clarity of the role of the Trustee and their responsibilities under company and charity legislation. Trustees, new and current, also receive training on their legal responsibilities annually prior to the AGM. During the year trustees received training on risk management.

Trustee evaluation takes place annually and is based on self-assessment, peer-assessment and annual performance interviews with the Chair and Vice-Chair; the process includes identifying development requirements.

Trustees’ and Members’ Meetings and Business

Trustees meet formally four times a year, normally with two virtual and two physical meetings which are held at the same time as the Members’ meetings. Following the relaxation of COVID-19 rules in early 2022, both physical meetings took place as expected in the year (Edinburgh in September 2022 and Nairobi in March 2023). The business of all meetings is minuted.

On 31 March 2023 there were 15 Members and 9 Trustees. Members are subscribers to GALVmed’s Memorandum of Association. The organisation appoints a representative to attend all meetings and to undertake their responsibilities as dictated by the Articles of Association. Members have rights and obligations in accordance with the Articles. In addition, observers from 5 organisations, including BMGF and FCDO, the company’s major funders, are invited to attend the Members’ meetings, with the funders also invited to meet separately with the Board.

The Board is supported by the Finance & Risk and HR committees, to whom aspects of day-to-day accountability and governance are delegated. The HR Committee is also responsible for safeguarding. There are also three advisory committees - the Technical Scientific, Commercial Development (CD) and Impact, Monitoring and Evaluation committees. These committees provide guidance to the Board through the involvement of external experts.

Strategy and Decision Making

Development of the company’s strategy for the achievement of its charitable objectives is overseen by the Board of Trustees and evolved by the Executive Directors. The related corporate objectives and budget are set out in the Annual Plan. Progress in achieving these objectives is assessed by the Board through reports by the Chief Executive and the Executive Directors at Board meetings, drawn from monthly and quarterly internal performance monitoring tools. Strategic and operational issues are brought to the Board for assessment and direction as required. GALVmed are currently working towards the achievement of the 2030 Strategy, which was approved by the Board in March 2021, utilising the Strategy Implementation Plan and the Strategy Execution Framework. During the year, a series of Industry Engagement Deep Dives were held with 8 commercial partners to direct the project portfolio for future programmes.

Key Management Remuneration

Key management includes the Chief Executive (CEO) and Executive Directors of the company who operate as the GALVmed Leadership Team (GLT).

The HR Committee has responsibility delegated to it for setting the framework for key management remuneration. The main responsibilities of the Committee in relation to key management remuneration are:

TRUSTEES’ REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2023

The performance related pay scheme, which is based on departmental, and individual objectives developed from the corporate objectives, is applicable to all employees.

Diversity

The diversity of the Trustees, GLT and staff at 31 March 2023 is:

Gender Gender Ethnicity Ethnicity
Male Female African Asian Caucasian
Trustees 5 4 3 1 5
GLT 2 3 1 - 4
Staff 6 16 9 3 10

Safeguarding

GALVmed is committed to addressing safeguarding throughout its work. It does so through a specific set of policies and procedures that include: Safeguarding Policy (which explicitly addresses prevention, reporting and response); Trustee and GLT training (on commencement and biennial thereafter); all-staff awareness; and contractual commitment to safeguarding by its partners and consultants. No safeguarding issues were reported in the year.

Partnerships and Related Parties

Partnerships with entities to whom research and development, commercialisation and other work can be subcontracted is a key part of the way the company operates and is instrumental in allowing it to pursue its charitable objectives. The company initiates, facilitates, brokers, and contributes to such partnerships from two perspectives: 1) specific partnerships to deliver and support programme achievement and impact; and 2) higher level strategic partnerships to initiate and advance the livestock agenda. All such relationships are formalised through Memoranda of Understanding, Confidentiality Agreements and Contractual Agreements. All contractual arrangements and related party transactions (detailed in Note 17 to the Financial Statements) are conducted at arm’s length.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Performance and Achievements

Key Performance Indicators

The Trustees and GLT assess the financial and operational performance of each programme using the following key performance indicators (KPI):

The Advisory and Board Committees oversee the financial and operational performance of organisational and programme activities quarterly.

In addition, service level agreements have been established for all service-related functions, performance of which is assessed quarterly.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT

For the year ended 31 March 2023

Key Achievements

The company made good progress during the year in achieving its charitable purpose. Its corporate objectives for the year to 31 March 2023 together with key achievements are:

Objective Achievements
Strategic
Execute GALVmed 2030 Strategy including: developing R&D project pipelines and analysing the strategic
themes; evolving the Commercial Development (CD) SEAMLiSS (Systematically Enhancing African Health
Markets for Livestock Producers in Small-Scale Settings) platform and business case; developing
downstream last-mile bridging strategies; and developing the proposal for R&D and CD project portfolios in
South Asia.
Rating
of
progress:
Partially
Achieved
Execution of the 2030 Strategy continued including the ongoing development of the R&D and
CD portfolio proposals for the next round of major programme funding, expected to be
submitted in Q2 2023. This included 1) the development of R&D project pipelines following the
industry engagement deep dive exercise with several commercial partners – 30 ideas were
generated and assessed resulting in 8 to 10 proposals for further expansion. The other R&D
strategic aims of New Technology Platforms and Manufacturing Capacity platforms remain
under development; 2) a SEAMLiSS CD platform concept note was submitted in August,
following an expansion of the business case and an evolution of the proposal in both Africa and
South Asia. 3) A marketing manager was recruited to drive the development of formal
marketing/launch plans for all VITAL R&D combination products (combos) ensuring an ongoing
focus on SSPs.
Tactical
Deliver VITAL R&D, AgResults Brucella & FMD, Tryps, ASF, Bovine TB, TAHSSL, VITAL CD, PREVENT,
MAHABA on plan and on budget.
Rating
of
progress:
Achieved
All programmes are progressing well and are on target, despite some delays, to the satisfaction
of partners and funders. The VITAL programme is progressing well for most projects with a no-
cost extension (NCE) approved to March 2024 for FCDO and December 2024 for BMGF to
accommodate delays. A costed extension was also successfully negotiated for the Brucella
programme for a further 6 years to 2028. Impact achieved is noted on page 7.
Process
Ensure strategy and project delivery is underpinned by appropriate human resourcing and efficient processes
through: implementing a new staff learning & development programme; evolving the M&E methodology
to evaluate & reflect GALVmed’s output, outcomes and impact generation; identifying key principles of
knowledge management processes; rolling out and embedding the Strategy Execution Handbook; embedding
6-4 Project Management principles into all new projects; assessing key systems including project risk
management; and ensuring that GALVmed is staffed appropriately with succession plans in place.
Rating
of
progress:
Achieved
Substantial improvement in processes in the year including: leadership development learning
programme undertaken by all senior managers; new theory of change and framework to
monitor organisational performance developed and being tested by M&E as well as revisiting
the 2030 Goals framework; SharePoint now embedded across the organisation to ensure core
knowledge is accessible with further work on knowledge management to be completed in the
future; Strategy Execution Handbook rolled out; project management principles embedded;
excellent progress on project risk management with project risk registers now in place for all
programmes; and succession plans now in place for all key positions.
Outreach
Expand GALVmed’s engagement with external stakeholders by: finalising and launching the GALVmed 2030
Strategy communication plan and tools; updating the corporate communication deck; cultivating active partner
engagement; and supporting new Members and Trustees identification and induction.
Rating
of
progress:
Achieved
The 2030 Strategy communication plan was finalised and launched, with good external
visibility. This was further enhanced through the industry engagement exercise, where deep
dives were completed with 8 commercial partners. There has also been fundamental work
delivered by M&E in 2022 which is now embedded in CD to drive SSP-centricity and impact,
and to ensure greater communication of GALVmed’s achievements, and greater interaction
with stakeholders. One new trustee was recruited to the Board, and their induction supported.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2023

Development Development
Broaden GALVmed’s funding base and secure fresh funding in line with GALVmed 2030 Strategy, including:
securing funding for TAHSSL and VITAL bridging; ensuring future sustainability of core costs; engaging with
new funders including the exploration of the African funding environment; and consideration of the long-term
sustainability of GALVmed.
Rating
of
progress:
Partially
Achieved
The funding for VITAL Bridging (to support the VITAL NCE to December 2024) was secured,
ensuring the future sustainability of GALVmed until December 2024. As part of VITAL Bridging,
R&D and CD strategic project proposals will be developed and evolved into the next major
programme funding proposal which will be required to fund future core costs and therefore
ensure long term organisational sustainability. GALVmed chose to leave the TAHSSL
programme for legal and budgetary reasons. A Board working group has been set up to explore
the African funding environment, and this along with further funder diversification will be
considered once future funding is secured.

The Impact of our Work

Monitoring and Evaluating (M&E) activities have developed an impact model to quantify the increase in livestock productivity (expressed in dollar terms) that is brought about through the use of GALVmed-supported animal health products. A broad portfolio of animal health products has been sold through multiple initiatives across various geographies. Initiatives including VITAL, BI Last Mile and PREVENT have collectively sold an estimated 1 billion doses of vaccines, therapeutics, and other animal health products to SSP customers, via GALVmed’s commercial partners, across 15 countries since inception of each of the respective projects (VITAL, October 2017; BI Last Mile, January 2018; PREVENT, November 2020) (India, Nepal, Kenya, Tanzania, Senegal, Ghana, Cameroon, Mali, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Chad, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, and Ivory Coast). This includes an estimated 0.5 billion doses sold over the past year, reaching over 200,000 SSPs.

The generation of impact through these initiatives is key and, at the same time, a primary objective of the CD initiatives is financial viability. Therefore, both components are actively monitored and reported on.

The objectives, achievements and impact of two active programmes, for example, are:

All GALVmed programmes have different objectives and timelines and are therefore at different stages in their execution. As programmes progress, we will continue to quantify the impact that all GALVmed’s work has on SSPs.

Financial Review

Income in the year was £13.1m (2022: £14.1m) and total expenditure was £11.1m (2022: £11.6m).

Income

Restricted income (excluding exchange gains) of £11.1m (2022: £12.2m) includes £4.9m in respect of VITAL Bridging and £3.4m in respect of VITAL; funding for other programmes totalled £2.8m. Unrestricted income of £1.0m was received (2022: £1.1m) from contributions from programmes to overheads, and from interest.

GLOBAL ALLIANCE FOR LIVESTOCK VETERINARY MEDICINES

(a company limited by guarantee)

TRUSTEES’ REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2023

An unrealised exchange gain of £1.0m has arisen (2021-22: gain of £0.7m) on the conversion of foreign currency balances at year end exchange rates. The gain is a result of the weakening of Sterling against the US Dollar (in which most of the company’s funding is received) from 1.32 to 1.24 in the year. The company minimises the effects of currency fluctuations by taking several steps, including contracting in the funded currency where possible and optimising the timing of foreign currency conversions.

Expenditure

Expenditure remained broadly consistent at £11.1m (2022: £11.6m). VITAL costs of £3.5m continue to make up the largest proportion of expenditure, 32% (2022: £5.6m, 48%). Expenditure on AAT 3 has increased to £3.4m, 30% (2022: £2.5m, 22%). Unrestricted spend has remained consistent at £0.8m (2022: £0.8m).

Balance Sheet

The level of cash held has increased from £17.2m to £19.4m in the year because of advanced AAT 3, VITAL and VITAL Bridging funding.

Liquidity Management Policy

The company’s liquidity management and investment objectives, responsibilities, risk, and strategy are clearly set out in a Liquidity Management Policy which is subject to review annually. The related liquidity and investment activity is reviewed quarterly by the Finance & Risk Committee. GALVmed’s Liquidity Management Policy is driven by the need to have funds readily available to fund its activities in diverse geographies as well as to maintain the infrastructure of the organisation. As such, longer term investments are not appropriate in maintaining adequate cashflow.

Climate Change

The Board is committed to reducing the company’s greenhouse gas emissions, particularly those resulting from air travel. The Company generated and offset 122 tonnes of emissions in the year (2021-22: 68 tonnes). Carbon offset is through investment in like-purposed initiatives. A Board/Staff joint meeting was held in September 2022 to discuss how GALVmed could decrease its carbon footprint, with several actions identified including the need to observe and support livestock-related climate change actors, and to support staff in actively reducing their individual ecological footprints in and outside the office. As part of this, travel has reduced substantially since pre-pandemic levels, where alternatives to air travel are now a pre-requisite consideration before travel is undertaken.

Reserves

Reserves at 31 March 2023 total £18.5m (2022: £16.5m), of which available funds not tied up in fixed assets amount to £18.5m (2022: £16.5m). Reserves related to restricted funds of £15.2m (2022: £13.6m) mainly relate to advance funding for AAT 3, VITAL and VITAL Bridging.

Unrestricted Reserves Policy

Unrestricted reserves at 31 March 2023 amount to £3.3m (2022: £2.9m). From this amount, the Trustees have established a designated fund of £1.5m (2022: £1.3m) which comprises unrestricted reserves that have been set aside for any future shortfall in the recovery of overhead costs from programmes.

The objective of the company’s Unrestricted Reserves Strategy is to build sufficient funds to protect the company from any adverse changes in its financial circumstances and to pursue operational opportunities that, in the initial phase, are not funded by 3[rd] parties. By considering a variety of risks, the Trustees have concluded that £1.2m of general unrestricted reserves is the minimum that should be held. General unrestricted reserves are currently held in excess of this to allow for the future investment in the 2030 Strategy and to ensure financial sustainability beyond the end of VITAL Bridging in September 2024 (especially continuity of delivery of the VITAL programme to December 2024) should additional funding not be awarded. The unrestricted reserves policy is reviewed every 6 months to ensure that it reflects current circumstances.

Future Plans

Objectives

GALVmed is operating in accordance with the vision of the 2030 Strategy. This builds upon the evolution of the company since inception as a product development partnership working on a strong portfolio of new products, technologies and processes while continuing to facilitate scale-orientated commercial development initiatives.

GALVmed has identified the following key strategic corporate objectives for 2023-24:

Objective
1. New funds to deliver GALVmed’s mission of improving availability and SSP access to quality animal
health products in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia in advanced stage of negotiation with funders
(target of~$50M)
a. -
New comprehensive project portfolio designed (concept note outlined 2Q23, full concept noted
3Q23) and VITAL2 program funding proposal submitted to current funders (1Q24).
b. -
Multiple smaller and three large new funders evaluated and approached regarding co-funding of
future GALVmed work (1Q24).
2. Program functions and project managers enabled to deliver 2023/24 project targets with required
financial, human resource, operational and project management support
a. -
Current projects delivered as close as possible to plan, deliverables, and financials (1Q24).
b. -
Combo launch project and VITAL2 funding proposal development activity planned & executed with
excellence and supported by project management and advocacy support (throughout the year up
to end of 1Q24).
3. Strong focus on delivering impact and transformational results through GALVmed’s current and future
projects and GALVmed’s impact, achievements and learnings communicated
a. -
M&E
modelling
methodology
reviewed
and
framework
to
document
organizational
(transformational) achievements developed to ensure that GALVmed’s impact and other project
outcomes are comprehensively captured, and learnings communicated and used to optimize
GALVmed’s future program design (1Q24).
b. -
In preparation of the VITAL Combo-launch, identify and build partnerships that drive uptake of
quality livestock vaccines by SSPs (by 1Q24).
c. -
Strong impact, learnings and achievements communication plan developed (2Q23) and success
stories disseminated (ongoing to 1Q24).

Financial

The 2023-24 expenditure budget is £10.6m, a 5% decrease on 2022-23 actual expenditure. This decrease is mainly because of the reduced VITAL sub-award activity as the programme progresses through to the final stages of delivery.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties

Risk Management

The company’s governance structure includes risk management. During the year significant work was undertaken to strengthen risk management where project risk management was overhauled, with project risk registers now in place for all ongoing projects and a tool developed to analyse, aggregate, and escalate project risks. The Risk Management Policy details the company’s risk management objectives, processes, reporting and responsibilities. This was updated to incorporate the concept of project risk management, highlighting synergies with corporate risk management, and ultimately ensuring greater visibility, aggregation, and escalation of project risks.

The Corporate Risk Register highlights the major risks to which the company is exposed and for each risk the score, lead risk owner, mitigations and actions stated. It is maintained to support strategic, financial, and operational planning and therefore to assist in achieving the company’s objectives and targets. The key risks, that GALVmed faces at the time of this report, and key mitigations, are:

diversification

As well as the strategic risks noted in the table above, important financial risks are monitored and include the possible loss of bank deposits through fraud or theft, currency risk, liquidity risk and dependency on limited funding sources. The risk of loss of bank deposits is managed through the bank mandates in place and continued vigilance. Currency and liquidity risk are managed by following the Liquidity Management Policy. The 2030 Strategy and Funder Relations Strategy aims to address the limited funding sources issue.

GOING CONCERN

The Board of Trustees has considered the financial position of GALVmed for the next twelve months and concluded that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. Funding of current programmes is assured: the VITAL Bridging grant will cover all organisational direct costs to September 2024 to enable the completion of VITAL by December 2024, with further funding from VITAL itself to cover organisational direct costs for the final three months of the programme. The VITAL Bridging grant will further ensure continuity of other project commitments and will allow the evolution of future project proposals.

We are currently in the process of developing our proposal for the next round of Gates Foundation funding, which is expected to commence in Q1 2025 at the latest and are in regular discussions with both our funders to ensure this programme is designed in line with their evolving strategies, as well as GALVmed priorities.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2023

An assessment of unrestricted funds has also been carried out. Designated funds are sufficient to cover any shortfall in indirect costs during the VITAL Bridging period if required, although it is anticipated this need will be small, if it is needed at all. General unrestricted reserves are also sufficient to maintain the minimum balance of £1.2m required within the reserves policy. There are therefore sufficient funds to maintain GALVmed as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements.

AUDITORS

Henderson Loggie LLP, Chartered Accountants, were reappointed as auditors to the company at the Annual General Meeting in 2022, following a successful retender exercise. Their re-appointment was approved for an initial three-year term subject to annual consideration by both parties.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 March 2023

The Trustees (who are also the Directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the Trustees’ Report, including the Strategic Report, and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Law applicable to incorporated charities in Scotland requires the Trustees to prepare an annual report and financial statements for each financial year in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).

Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity at the end of the year and of its financial activities including its income and expenditure during the year then ended. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper and adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, with the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Trustees are also responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 March 2023

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the Income and Expenditure Account and Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purpose of company law) use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 March 2023

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report, included within the trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below:

As part of our planning process:

G LOBAL ALLIANCE FOR LIVESTOCK VETERINARY MEDICINES (a company limited by guarantee)

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 March 2023

The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is unavoidable risk that some material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). For instance, the further removed non-compliance is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the auditor is to become aware of it or to recognise the non-compliance.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, and to the charitable company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Regulation 10 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members and trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company, the charitable company’s members as a body and the charitable company’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

GLOBAL ALLIANCE FOR LIVESTOCK VETERINARY MEDICINES (a company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year to 31 March 2023

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

GALVmed is a public benefit entity. The financial statements have therefore been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, applicable accounting standards, Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 as amended in 2010, and the Charities Act 2011. They have also been prepared under historical cost accounting rules. The financial statements are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

Presentation of Financial Statements

The trustees have reviewed the accounting for unrealised foreign exchange gains and losses and identified that in previous years this was presented after the net income/expenditure of the charitable company. In accordance with FRS 102, unrealised foreign exchange gains and losses should be presented as part of the reported net income and expenditure, and hence this has been corrected in the current year and the previous year restated accordingly. There was no impact on the net funds at either 1 April 2021 or 31 March 2022.

Going Concern

The Board of Trustees has considered the financial position of GALVmed for the next twelve months and concluded that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. Funding of current programmes is assured: the VITAL Bridging grant will cover all organisational direct costs to September 2024 to enable the completion of VITAL by December 2024, with further funding from VITAL itself to cover organisational direct costs for the final three months of the programme. The VITAL Bridging grant will further ensure continuity of other project commitments and will allow the evolution of future project proposals.

We are currently in the process of developing our proposal for the next round of Gates Foundation funding, which is expected to commence in Q1 2025 at the latest and are in regular discussions with both our funders to ensure this programme is designed in line with their evolving strategies, as well as GALVmed priorities. We expect to submit our initial proposals to our funders (concept note) in Q2/Q3 2023 and a full funding proposal in Q1 2024.

An assessment of unrestricted funds has also been carried out. Designated funds are sufficient to cover any shortfall in indirect costs during the VITAL Bridging period if required, although it is anticipated this need will be small, if it is needed at all. General unrestricted reserves are also sufficient to maintain the minimum balance of £1.2m required within the reserves policy. There are therefore sufficient funds to maintain GALVmed as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements.

Fund Accounting

Funds received on which no restrictions are placed as to their use are accounted for as unrestricted funds. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in note 12.

Funds received for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose, are accounted for as restricted funds.

GLOBAL ALLIANCE FOR LIVESTOCK VETERINARY MEDICINES (a company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year to 31 March 2023

1. Accounting Policies (continued)

Income

Funds received are recognised as income from charitable activities once there is entitlement, reasonable probability of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. Income is deferred where funderimposed conditions that specify the performance conditions or time period in which the funds can be spent have not yet been met.

Investment income is recognised as earned.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Expenditure is accounted for inclusive of VAT where appropriate as the company is not registered for VAT.

Pension Scheme

The company provides a defined contribution pension scheme for its staff and the pension charge in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) represents the amounts payable by the company to the Company Personal Pension Scheme in respect of the year.

Operating Leases

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on the straight-line basis over the lease term.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on the accruals basis when a legal and/or constructive obligation exists. Expenditure through contractual agreements is recognised as goods and services are supplied. Grant payments are recognised as expenditure when payments are due in accordance with the terms of the contract.

Costs incurred by the company in the delivery of its activities and services are accounted for as charitable expenditure and categorised in the SOFA by the main activities of the company. Each category includes direct costs and support costs and, where support costs cannot be directly attributed to a category, they are apportioned on the basis of headcount.

Costs that, whilst necessary to deliver an activity do not themselves contribute directly to GALVmed’s activity, are accounted for as support costs. Support costs include central office functions such as management, finance, information systems and administration activities.

Foreign Currency

Foreign currency transactions are recorded in Sterling at the previous month’s month-end rate of exchange. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Sterling at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date.

All exchange differences are recognised through the SOFA.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year to 31 March 2023

1. Accounting Policies (continued)

Tangible Fixed Assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and stated at cost and depreciated over their useful economic lives as follows:

Office equipment 4 years Computer equipment & software 3 years Leasehold improvements over the life of the lease

Assets are only depreciated when they are brought into use and depreciated up to, but not including, the month of disposal.

Debtors and Prepayments

Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

Cash at Bank and in Hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a maturity of six months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the company has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party in the future and the amount due to settle obligations can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are recognised at their settlement amount.

Critical Accounting Judgements and Estimation Uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions, which may affect reported income, expenditure, assets, and liabilities. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered relevant. Actual results may differ from such estimates. Judgements made in preparing these financial statements comprise:

Financial Instruments

The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

4. Staff Costs (Continued)

GALVmed provides to its UK-based staff a defined contribution pension scheme, the GALVmed Personal Pension Scheme, which is operated by Aviva, a life assurance company. Total employer contributions in the year were £58,189 (2022: £58,063). The total number of members in the scheme at 31 March 2023 was 15 (2022: 16).

To compensate for the fact that there is currently no pension scheme for international staff, an employer contribution of 6% of salary is paid to such staff on the understanding that this contribution should be paid into a pension scheme of their choice. Total such contributions in respect of the year were £40,263 (2022: £41,857).

The following number of employees received total employee salary and benefits (excluding employer pension) in excess of £60,000 in the period:

Unrealised gains and losses on foreign exchange relate to the revaluation of GALVmed’s net current assets at 31 March 2023 and are included in other income (see note 12 for breakdown by programme). The gains of £958,077 (2022: £718,009) relate to advance funding in US Dollars and a weakening of Sterling against the US Dollar.

In addition, a realised loss of £13,005 (2022: £15,581 loss) is included in expenditure on charitable activities, which is a result of the difference between the currency rate invoiced and the currency rate paid to suppliers.

Programme Objectives and Funding

The purpose of the AAT 3 programme is to build upon the success of the work carried out under previous AAT programmes resulting in the improved tools for the control of Animal African Trypanosomiasis. The specific objective of AAT 3 is the commercial development of a registered therapeutic trypanocidal product, ready for sale through GALVmed’s commercial partner in the AAT 3 programme, Boehringer Ingelheim. This programme is funded by both BMGF ($19m) and FCDO ($3.5m).

The VITAL Bridging programme aims to support the development and initiation of new programmes of work which will progress the next phase of work beyond VITAL and reflect the essence of the GALVmed 2030 strategy. This programme is funded by BMGF ($7.7m).

The VITAL programme has two strands: product development and commercial development. The broad objectives are: 1) to develop six new high impact livestock vaccines ready for commercial production and suitable for widespread use by smallholders in Africa and South Asia; and 2) to partner the animal health industry to establish five large scale portfolio distribution networks in Africa and South Asia with each initiative being capable of generating positive cash flows by year 4 and achieving subsequent growth and expansion through these cash flows. The programme is jointly funded by BMGF (80%) and FCDO (20%). This programme was contracted to end on 30 September 2022 but has since been award a no-cost extension to March 2024 for FCDO and December 2024 for BMGF because of delays associated with COVID-19. This will allow the programme objectives to be fully achieved beyond the initial contractual end date.

The AgResults Brucellosis programme is a competition, managed by GALVmed, to develop and register a safe and efficacious vaccine against Brucella melitensis , the main cause of human infections with Brucella and a significant economic burden in developing countries. It is fully funded by the AgResults consortium.

The PREVENT (Promoting and Enabling Vaccination Efficiently, Now and Tomorrow) programme is fully funded by BMGF and is carried out in partnership with Ceva Santé Animale. The aim of this programme is to create an efficient sector of medium-sized African hatcheries applying hatchery vaccination and proactive marketing methods to initiate and increase vaccinated chick sales to poultry small scale producers.

The Bovine TB programme aims to enable and accelerate the development and implementation of rational evidence-based approaches to control TB, with a focus on India, and to provide a strong foundation for the development of control programmes in other developing countries. This project will establish and publish Target Product Profiles for novel tools to control TB and develop a roadmap for product development and commercialisation of novel diagnostic tests in India.

The AgResults Foot and Mouth programme is a competition, managed by GALVmed, to encourage the development and uptake of an improved vaccine tailored for the needs and requirements of East Africa. It is fully funded by the AgResults Consortium.

The MAHABA (Managing Animal Health and Acaricides for a Better Africa) programme is fully funded by BMGF and is carried out in partnership with Elanco Animal Health. The aim of the programme is to create effective tick control for SSPs, by building a clear understanding of acaricide usage, developing innovative methods to help educate on the effective use and by providing practical methods to counter resistance, avoid failures and allow sustainable tick control.

The Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) programme is fully funded by BMGF and is carried out in partnership with BI. Its objective is to deliver a viable business model for providing quality veterinary healthcare to smallholder farmers in Africa. The key activities for this programme are 1) a registration initiative of BI products in three key markets; and 2) a distribution and awareness initiative which accelerates the accessibility of a portfolio of products to areas which are normally very difficult to access through usual distribution networks.

The TAHSSL (Transforming Animal-Health Solutions and Services for Low-Middle Income Countries) programme is a project to conduct research on animal-health product technologies to generate robust proof-ofconcept results that are of high quality and to facilitate with the private sector product development, registration, and use. The focus is on developing veterinary medicines and diagnostic solutions to address animal health disease constraints in low-middle income countries and providing services to help fill the product development pipeline. TAHSSL is fully funded by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI). This programme ended during the year.

Other restricted funds represent income received from funders with a specific use of programme identified.

The general reserve represents the free funds of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for a particular purpose. Organisational (indirect) costs need to be covered by contributions from all programmes. Cumulative net indirect core cost contributions have been designated by the Board at 31 March 2023 to fund future indirect costs.
