Civmec delivered double-digit earnings growth in FY26, with its new defence arm helping lift the order book to A$1.4 billion. The stronger profit came alongside a sharp working-capital squeeze that left operating cash flow negative after investment in growth.

Macro Metals turned a largely exploratory business into a revenue-generating mining services operator in FY26, with statutory revenue rising to A$1.72 million and approximately A$21.13 million of work awarded. The progress came with a material warning: the auditor said additional funding remains necessary to support the company as it grows.

Altair Minerals finished 2026 with A$33.7 million in cash after major equity raisings, giving it room to pursue a large Greater Oko drilling campaign in Guyana. The balance-sheet improvement came alongside a wider A$4.81 million loss, substantial dilution and an unresolved dispute with BHP over Olympic Domain.

Adavale Resources is presenting its 610-square-kilometre Parkes Gold Project as a belt-scale opportunity with 383,300 ounces of reported gold resources and existing processing infrastructure. The next test is whether metallurgical work, a scoping study and funding can turn that inventory into a credible development plan.

Cobre Limited (ASX:CBE) says its Sierra Atacama turnaround delivered a first cash-positive quarter, higher recovery and 879 tonnes of copper cathode production. The company remains loss-making at group level, but enters FY27 with more cash, a larger project stake and an ambitious drilling and expansion programme.

Barramundi Limited (NZX:BRM) has reported the worst performance in its 20-year history, with a NZ$42.9 million net loss and a 17.0% fall in gross portfolio performance. The board is reviewing Fisher Funds’ management performance just weeks before its five-year agreement comes up for renewal.

Kingsrose Mining is entering FY27 with A$18.1 million in cash, a fresh CEO and a portfolio that now depends more heavily on permitting, partnerships and capital discipline. The company’s nearest-term opportunity is Penikat drilling in Finland, while its Norwegian projects require new routes to funding or value realisation.

Litchfield Minerals has expanded its Harts Range exploration model, raised A$8 million and ended FY2026 with A$4.6 million in cash. The opportunity is growing, but the auditor flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to fund future operations.

Volt Group delivered a steep lift in HY26 revenue, adjusted EBITDA, profit and operating cash flow, with the 4D Delta acquisition providing the largest contribution. The mining technology company also expanded its Westgold solar-lighting fleet and advanced Wescone’s crusher technology.

Agrimin has completed its withdrawal from the Mackay Potash Project and repositioned itself around exploration at the 480-square-kilometre Mount Squires Project. The pivot reduced the company’s annual loss, but left it with $1.08 million in cash, net current liabilities and no JORC mineral resources or ore reserves.

Australian United Investment Company’s profit surged after its merger with Diversified United Investment, but the headline result was dominated by a one-off acquisition gain. Underlying profit rose 19.9%, while AUI expanded its portfolio to about A$3.1 billion and declared fully franked dividends totalling 28 cents per share.

Barramundi’s portfolio surged in August, delivering a 6.7% adjusted NAV return against a 1.9% benchmark gain. The recovery leaves the NZX-listed investment company trading at a 13.2% discount to its underlying portfolio value.
