Latest Audits News

Metrics Master Income Trust has been suspended from trading after warning that its audited FY2026 financial report may differ materially from unaudited figures released last month. The final report is expected on 30 September, but the trust has not disclosed the nature or size of the revisions.

WCM Quality Global Growth Fund delivered a positive 16.87% return for the year, although it lagged its global benchmark and reported sharply lower distributions. Its longer-term record remains ahead of the benchmark, leaving investors weighing recent relative weakness against a new income-focused policy.

Lotus Resources delivered first uranium production from Kayelekera in more than a decade, but its first operating year brought a $100.1 million loss, heavy cash burn and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The mine produced 332.1 thousand pounds of U3O8 before acid supply problems forced a temporary processing pause.

Lincoln Minerals has moved Minbrie’s Eagle Ridge prospect towards diamond drilling after air core work supported its geological model. But the ASX-listed explorer remains loss-making, cash-burning and dependent on further funding to continue its exploration program.

Tamboran Resources has moved into initial Beetaloo gas sales, but its first annual report after the milestone still records no fiscal 2026 revenue, a $30.5 million loss and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The company held $219.1 million in cash at June 30, yet faces heavy development spending, no proved reserves and a material weakness in financial controls.

Vital Metals reported a A$16.63 million FY2026 loss after impairing its North T mine asset by A$12.73 million, while its auditor highlighted material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The balance sheet was strengthened by A$12.47 million in placements, but Tardiff’s encouraging drilling results must now translate into a larger resource and a credible pre-feasibility study.

Nufarm is pairing a narrower crop-protection portfolio with heavier investment in seeds and tighter capital controls as it targets A$370 million to A$380 million in FY26 underlying EBITDA. The company has reaffirmed positive free cash flow, leverage of about 2.0 times and a A$50 million cost-saving program due to reach run-rate by the end of FY27.

Synlait’s operational recovery gathered pace in the second half, but the NZX-listed dairy processor still reported a NZ$75.4 million FY26 loss and negative operating cash flow. KPMG flagged a material uncertainty over going concern as the company prepares to refinance facilities due in 2027.

Lord Resources has extended copper mineralisation across multiple lodes at Ilgarari, but its FY2026 annual report carries a material uncertainty over whether the explorer can continue as a going concern. The company ended the year with $554,820 in cash after a $2.54 million loss and $1.87 million of operating cash outflows.

First Graphene expanded its product range and international footprint in FY2026, lifting revenue while narrowing its annual loss. But the company says continued operations depend on securing further equity funding, putting commercial execution and liquidity at the centre of its next phase.

Peregrine Gold has reported a $3.47 million FY2026 loss and $3.56 million operating cash outflow, with its auditor highlighting material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Against that financial pressure, the ASX-listed explorer is preparing RC drilling across two high-grade channel iron prospects and advancing several gold targets in the Pilbara.

Arika Resources has consolidated full ownership of its two Western Australian gold projects after a year of expanding mineralisation and fresh high-grade targets. The exploration story is gathering momentum, but auditors have flagged material uncertainty around funding as the company moves into a more than 20,000-metre drilling campaign.
