Lycopodium has won an approximately A$42.9 million engineering and procurement contract for Endeavour Mining’s Assafo-Dibibango gold project in Côte d’Ivoire. Work has begun, but continued execution and full implementation remain conditional on Endeavour approving its final investment decision, expected before the end of 2026.

Stakk has secured a live signature verification engagement for use by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation through ParaScript, with the agreement running to December 2027. The company says the contract will contribute meaningfully to its FY2027 revenue target, now expected to exceed $55 million, although its value remains confidential.

Prairie Limited has secured C$6.3 million in interest-free Canadian government financing to fund the next construction phase of its Saskatchewan lithium project. The company is targeting commissioning and first lithium brine production from its initial commercial well in Q4 2026.

GDI Property Group (ASX:GDI) lifted FY26 Funds From Operations by 25% to $44.5 million while reducing gearing to 33% and maintaining its 5.00 cents per security distribution. The annual report also sets out a buyback of up to 5% of stapled securities, but says completing the programme may depend on further asset sales.

Power Minerals has extended confirmed high-grade rare earth mineralisation at its Morro do Ferro project in Brazil, with a new hole returning 39 metres at 4.42% TREO from 80 metres downhole. Assays from shallower and deeper sections remain pending, leaving the scale and geometry of the zone unresolved.

Albright Metals has established a 54,200-ounce JORC 2012 Mineral Resource at the Vail Road deposit in Canada, including 22,500 ounces in the higher-confidence Indicated category. The estimate gives the company a technical foundation for a Scoping Study, but mine economics and metallurgy remain untested.

Strike Energy is moving from construction into execution, with its 85 MW South Erregulla power project nearing commercial operations and a 251 PJ West Erregulla reserve base underpinning its next gas development. The opportunity comes with a weaker FY26 earnings result, A$111.4 million of net debt and major funding obligations arriving from late 2026.

Anson Resources has secured approval for 17 additional Utah lease blocks covering 16.02 square kilometres inside the Green River Lithium Project’s resource area of interest. The company says the expanded ground could support a larger JORC resource without further drilling, but the proposed exploration target remains conceptual and the lease is not yet signed.

Sea Forest has reported a sharp lift in SeaFeed revenue during its first full year as an ASX-listed company, but remains loss-making as it funds production and market expansion. The methane-reduction specialist ended FY26 with $27.8 million in cash and term deposits and no borrowings.

Catalyst Metals has established about 2Moz of probable Ore Reserves across the Plutonic Gold Belt, enough to underpin a targeted 200koz of annual production for roughly 10 years. The milestone strengthens the company’s growth case, but delivery still depends on mine development, permitting and conversion of additional resources.

Pivotal Metals’ maiden scoping study gives its Horden Lake copper project a projected post-tax NPV of A$920 million against A$411 million of pre-production capital. The headline returns are strong, but the project remains a preliminary study with no Ore Reserve, material Inferred Resource exposure and more than A$400 million still to raise.

Lake Resources has secured the primary provincial environmental permit for its Kachi lithium project in Argentina, clearing the way for detailed engineering and financing work. The approval removes a major development hurdle, but FEED, funding, RIGI approval and a final investment decision remain ahead.

Resources & Energy Group has reported a standout 9-metre gold intercept at Goodenough as it prepares a fresh resource estimate. The exploration progress arrives alongside an audited warning that further funding is needed to sustain the business.

IperionX has moved its Virginia titanium operation into 24/7 production, lifting nameplate powder capacity to about 200 tonnes a year while commissioning equipment aimed at higher-value components. The progress came alongside a US$66.8 million annual loss, US$63.5 million of operating and investing cash outflows, and continued reliance on government support, customer qualification and future capital.

Solstice Minerals has extended the Nanadie copper-gold system to at least 1.5km of strike, with deep diamond drilling returning broad mineralisation beyond the current resource boundary. The results include a 169.3m intercept at 0.87% copper and 0.29g/t gold, while more than 40 holes remain awaiting assays.

Argent BioPharma has secured exclusive commercialisation rights to selected Tollovir, Tollovid and NutraVir antiviral products in a worldwide deal excluding China. The agreement adds a new commercial pillar alongside CimetrA®, but does not itself grant pharmaceutical development rights or establish clinical efficacy.

TG Metals has outlined a preliminary A$26.8 million pre-tax NPV for a low-capital heap leach operation at its Van Uden Gold Project in Western Australia. The economics are striking, but the study remains an early-stage assessment reliant on further drilling, approvals, financing and technical work.

Revolver Resources has taken its Dianne Copper Mine Project from study towards construction readiness, with a larger resource, secured approvals and a forecast $125.7 million pre-tax cash flow. But the restart still depends on project-level funding before a Final Investment Decision can be made.

Temple & Webster delivered record FY26 revenue of $664.6 million and lifted underlying EBITDA by 28%, despite a sharp fall in statutory profit after tax. The online retailer is targeting EBITDA of $33 million to $40 million in FY27 as improved margins, exclusive products and adjacent categories do more of the heavy lifting.

Codan expects first-half FY27 net profit after tax of at least $160 million, powered by a sharp increase in Communications revenue and margins. The company is raising its full-year Communications growth target, while warning that conflict-region demand remains difficult to forecast beyond three months.

Boab Metals has increased the Sorby Hills mineral resource by 7% to 50.6Mt, while contained silver rises by 1.6Moz. More Measured and Indicated material now supports the mine plan, although the update does not yet change Ore Reserves, production targets or project economics.

Firebrick Pharma has approved a phased push into US retail pharmacies after Nasodine online sales grew by more than 200% in FY26. Up to six regional pharmacy groups representing about 700 stores have expressed strong interest in early orders, although no binding orders have been disclosed.

Structural Monitoring Systems (ASX:SMN) delivered record FY26 revenue, a sharp lift in profit and $6.0 million of free cash flow as its avionics business outpaced contract manufacturing. The balance sheet is now free of bank debt, but the next leg of the story still depends on FAA approvals and converting CVM technology into commercial revenue.
