GreenX Metals has put a conceptual copper-silver target at Tannenberg and a major Poland arbitration award at the centre of its next phase. The annual report also shows the cost of that strategy: a $12.34 million loss, a $4.42 million project impairment and continued reliance on equity funding.

Coolabah Active Global Bond Fund delivered net returns of up to 6.20% in the year to 30 June 2026, ahead of its global bond benchmark. The fund also added an ASX-traded ETF class shortly before year-end, while using repurchase agreements and derivatives as part of its strategy.

Rubix Resources ended FY2026 with a $1.283 million loss, only $95,001 in cash and a net asset deficit, prompting its auditor to flag a material uncertainty over going concern. The company’s Paperbark drilling produced an encouraging copper signal, but further exploration depends on fresh funding.

Cann Group’s FY2026 profit was transformed by a one-off A$55.7 million debt-forgiveness gain, while a leaner cost base and new export sales offered more durable progress. The company remains loss-making on a normalised basis and dependent on lender waivers and a future refinancing.

Compumedics Limited (ASX:CMP) returned to profit in FY26 as record revenue, stronger cash generation and a sharp rise in MEG and SaaS sales reshaped its earnings profile. The company enters FY27 with A$28.3 million of open orders, but lower gross margins and uneven US and European execution remain key tests.

Strickland Metals has lifted its Rogozna resource to 9.25 million ounces of gold equivalent, but the exploration company also reported a A$10.39 million FY2026 loss. The cash balance rose sharply after a A$55.11 million placement as the company prepares for studies, permitting and a leadership transition.

Charger Metals has reduced its FY2026 loss and secured $3.75 million from the sale of Bynoe, giving the lithium explorer more room to advance its Lake Johnston assets. The company’s Medcalf resource now stands at 10.6Mt, although further drilling and funding will be needed to test its economic potential.

TerraCom has been suspended from trading while it completes audited FY2026 results expected to include material impairments to its South African and Australian assets. The company has not yet disclosed the size or effect of those write-downs.

American Rare Earths has expanded the proposed Cowboy State Mine in Wyoming to a 4.5 million tonne per year operation with a 26-year mine plan and an estimated after-tax NPV of US$1.07 billion. The stronger study case comes with higher capital, lower recoveries and no Ore Reserves, leaving metallurgy, permitting and funding as the next tests.

Macquarie Global Small Companies Fund reported a A$561,000 operating profit in its first financial period after launching three unit classes in June. The fund ended the period with A$11.757 million in net assets, although its short start-up period offers little basis for judging full-year performance.

Macquarie Global Yield Maximiser Fund delivered a 48.6% increase in operating profit and more than doubled net assets to A$340.7 million in the year to 30 June 2026. The expansion came alongside sharply higher distributions, although the portfolio’s larger exposure to debt securities leaves interest rates and credit spreads central to the next phase.

Macquarie Subordinated Debt Fund (ASX:MQS) reported a sharp increase in operating profit and assets for the year ended 30 June 2026, powered by the expansion of its active ETF class. The audited accounts also show the fund’s returns remain closely exposed to interest rates, credit spreads and debt-market valuations.

Macquarie Core Australian Equity Active ETF more than doubled its net assets to $1.138 billion in the year to 30 June 2026, powered by $676.067 million of new applications. Profit rose 50% to $33.876 million, while distributions increased to 30.93 cents per unit.

Walter Scott Global Equity Fund’s operating profit fell to A$4.1 million in 2026 from A$349.5 million, while net assets dropped by about A$1.1 billion. The audited report points to weaker investment gains and substantial redemptions, although the fund remained fully invested in quoted equities and received an unmodified audit opinion.

Macquarie Income Opportunities Fund reported a sharp decline in operating profit for 2026 as fair-value gains weakened, despite growth in net assets and distributions. The audited fund ended the year with A$3.033 billion attributable to unitholders and an unqualified audit opinion.

Macquarie Core Global Equity Fund (ASX:MQE) reported a sharp rise in FY2026 operating profit as net assets more than tripled and the portfolio expanded. The result reflects both substantial new applications and investment gains, rather than investment performance alone.

Pengana International Equities has cancelled 151.1 million shares in a $183.28 million buy-back, leaving a much smaller listed investment company and three fewer directors. The reconstituted board will review capital options before deciding whether to pursue a future rights issue.

Benjamin Hornigold Limited (ASX:BHD) delivered a 9.93% portfolio return in FY2026 but still posted a $420,931 loss after $565,697 in legal fees. Two settlements worth $2.6 million were received after year-end, while an $8.97 million judgment against JB Markets was assigned no value.

Atlas Arteria has warned that France may more than double the tax rate applied to eligible toll-road operators, with APRR’s 2025 TEILD bill already reaching €126.7 million. The proposed changes remain subject to parliamentary debate and could be softened before becoming law.

Paradigm Biopharmaceuticals has entered voluntary administration after its pivotal Phase 3 trial produced an interim efficacy result below the threshold required for continuation. The company’s securities will remain suspended while administrators assess its viability, liabilities and possible restructuring options.

Silver Mines has built a substantially larger economic case for Bowdens, but the project still needs NSW approval before its 93.5 million ounce reserve can become a mine. The company is now funding the next phase with a A$70 million placement while absorbing dilution and a major royalty buy-back.

Larvotto Resources has extended high-grade antimony-gold-tungsten mineralisation at Clarks Gully about 100 metres beyond its 2025 resource model, with drilling also identifying several hanging-wall lodes. The results could support a larger resource and a potential underground feed source for Hillgrove, but assays, modelling and permitting work remain outstanding.

Felix Gold advanced bulk extraction, processing and refinery plans at its Alaska antimony project in FY26, but the push came with a larger loss, falling cash and an auditor-documented material uncertainty over going concern. A potential US$18 million Department of Energy award remains subject to negotiation rather than a committed funding source.

6K Additive has signed a 30-month Nickel 718 powder supply agreement with US advanced manufacturer ADDMAN, carrying a stated value of up to US$10.8 million. The deal also introduces a buy-back arrangement for used powder, linking new sales with recycled feedstock.
