Zenith Minerals has reaffirmed its support for Forrestania Resources’ takeover, arguing that the completed Edna May acquisition and A$310 million capital raising outweigh a sharply lower implied offer value. The recommendation comes with a clear split: long-term shareholders may favour the combination, while shorter-term holders may reasonably reject it.

InteliCare Holdings Limited (ASX:ICR) used FY2026 to move from pilot projects into contracted deployment, led by an estimated $8.8 million five-year agreement with mecwacare. Revenue and customer receipts more than doubled, although the company remains loss-making and reliant on disciplined rollout execution and further funding.

Forrestania Resources has extended its takeover offer for Zenith Minerals to 12 November after Takeovers Panel findings forced corrective disclosure and new shareholder protections. The bidder says it has 49.43% acceptances and a 58.54% relevant interest, but restrictions will limit its voting and control rights even if the offer succeeds.

360 Capital Mortgage REIT has stepped deeper into the recovery of its Bathla exposures, acquiring senior debt over a 72-apartment project while reporting further property sales. The Trust is targeting monthly FY27 distributions of 5.0 cents per unit, but much still depends on settlements and property realisations.

Port of Tauranga is facing three appeals and two judicial review applications against approval for its Stella Passage expansion. The port plans to defend the consent and seek a single expedited High Court hearing, but the filing does not quantify possible delays or costs.

SkyCity Entertainment Group has secured the right to apply for two New Zealand online casino licences, committing NZ$30 million in licence fees before GST. The company still needs to complete the application process ahead of next year’s planned market opening.

PointsBet expects first-half FY27 revenue of approximately $113 million, down 16% from the prior corresponding period, with normalised EBITDA falling to a loss of $6 million to $8 million. The company attributed the setback to stricter Australian compliance measures and adverse betting results, particularly in AFL.

Carbonxt has added four US waste-to-energy facilities to its Reworld supply agreement, lifting annual Powdered Activated Carbon volumes by about 25% from January 2027. The expanded contract pushes the company’s FY27 revenue expectation to at least 40% above FY26, while Kentucky remains outside the forecast.

COSOL’s revenue fell 15.6% in FY26 and the ASX-listed asset management technology company swung to a $4.0 million statutory loss after goodwill impairments. Management is betting that leaner operations, new transport contracts and AI-led services can restore profitable growth, but the recovery still needs to show up in revenue.

PARKD has secured an exclusive three-year partnership with ASX-listed Symal across Victoria and South Australia, alongside an A$800,000 placement priced at a premium. The deal expands PARKD’s east coast delivery network, although future projects and revenue remain uncommitted.

XRF Scientific has delivered its strongest September quarter in years, with revenue rising 38% to $21.1 million and profit before tax climbing 30% to $4.4 million. Orbis growth, resilient consumables demand and the developing CGA business are giving the company several avenues for further expansion, although precious metals revenue included a low-margin one-off sale.

Delorean Corporation has secured a non-binding $20 million financing mandate from Westpac for its NSW1 Horsley Park bioenergy project, taking identified funding to about 81% of the estimated build cost. The project still needs binding finance documents and a further $11.6 million before financial close can be reached.

Great Southern Mining has reported a run of high-grade gold intercepts at Golden Boulder, extending mineralisation across the northern 1.1 kilometres of a 3.5-kilometre trend. The exploration gains arrive alongside A$2.524 million in cash and a reported 1.13 quarters of funding at the quarter-end spending rate.

Southern Palladium’s updated study has lifted the Bengwenyama project’s post-tax NPV to US$1.96 billion, driven by sharply improved chrome recovery and a stronger commodity price deck. The project still needs a definitive feasibility study, permits, funding and commercial offtake arrangements before those figures can be tested in development.

Solstice Minerals has reported broad copper-gold intersections beyond Nanadie’s current resource boundary, including 64.1 metres at 0.94% copper and 91.4 metres at 0.97% copper. A spectacular silver interval adds intrigue, but its geometry and economic significance remain unresolved.

Many Peaks Minerals has reported a 188.9-metre gold intercept beneath the Ouarigue resource at its Ferké project in Côte d’Ivoire, including 46.75 metres at 7.02g/t and a narrow 109.8g/t interval. The results will feed into a resource update now under way, while regional drilling has opened additional targets south of Ouarigue.

The US FDA has supported six of seven elements NeuroScientific Biopharmaceuticals put forward for its planned StemSmart Phase 2 Crohn’s disease trial. The remaining issue is a manufacturing control for viral contamination, while trial commencement remains targeted for the end of 2026 and subject to further requirements.

American Tungsten & Antimony has produced one antimony ingot assaying 99.8% from US-mined material, meeting the highest ASTM B237 grade and exceeding the Regulus II specification. The result comes as the company pursues US government funding and offtake arrangements, although no commitments have been secured and AT4 does not yet control the relevant assets.

Macro Metals has secured approximately A$3.28 million through a placement and the proposed conversion of its chairman’s loan, funding drilling across iron ore, copper and gold assets. The raise also completes the acquisition of Yandi South, but much of the capital remains tied to exploration outcomes that are yet to be established.

Maronan Metals has secured firm commitments for a $20 million placement to expand drilling and bring forward engineering, permitting and metallurgical work at its Queensland project. The raise is conditional on shareholder approval, with Kinterra Capital set to lift its interest to 22.99%.

Astral Resources has intersected broad, high-grade gold below the current Theia resource pit shell while extending mineralisation about 150 metres south. The results strengthen the exploration case beneath the planned open pit, although a resource or reserve increase has not yet been announced.

Memphasys has reported record September-quarter invoiced revenue of A$211,000 as its Felix fertility device moves into more international markets. The commercial progress comes alongside A$3.5 million in funding, but the loan still requires shareholder approval for conversion into notes.

Baby Bunting has reaffirmed its FY27 earnings and sales targets despite underlying comparable store sales growth moderating to 2.2% in the first 14 weeks. The retailer says its Store of the Future refurbishments are now delivering a 20% average sales uplift across 17 stores.

White Cliff Minerals has identified copper sulphides on a previously untested parallel structure mapped over 2.8km at its Rae Copper Project. Sulphides also appeared in all three northeast infill holes, but laboratory assays remain six to eight weeks away.
