Golden Deeps has reported high-grade polymetallic results at its Graceland prospect in Namibia while stepping up deeper drilling across an 800-metre target corridor. The explorer ended FY2026 with $4.218 million in cash, but remains dependent on exploration success and future funding.

Iperion reported a lower loss for the year ended 31 March 2026, but its cash reserves and net assets fell sharply, leaving the NZX-listed materials company reliant on related-party funding and director support. Its Pathoglaze manufacturing operation is also being moved from Malaysia to Singapore while customer trials continue.

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.

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.

AnteoTech has received $1.905 million from the Australian R&D Tax Incentive, providing fresh cash for its battery materials and life sciences commercialisation efforts. The rebate relates to eligible research conducted during the 2026 financial year.

Memphasys will receive an A$3.5 million advance from major shareholder Peters Investments to expand Felix production, inventory and sales capacity as repeat orders emerge across international markets.

Core Lithium has moved Finniss from care and maintenance back into active mining, with first spodumene concentrate produced after year end and a December-quarter shipment targeted. The restart leaves the company with A$181.8 million in cash, but also a substantial execution task ahead as Grants ramps up and BP33 is developed.

Firetrail Australian Small Companies Fund delivered a 13.03% pre-fee return for the year to 30 June 2026, outperforming its benchmark by more than 11 percentage points. Net assets nearly doubled to $805.9 million as applications outpaced redemptions, although investors should note the result was before fees and distributions surged alongside performance income.

Fortuna Metals has reported a sharply expanded exploration base at its Mkanda rutile and graphite project in Malawi, alongside a narrower FY2026 loss and A$8.6 million of post-year-end funding. The resource remains early-stage and inferred, but the scale and product quality have moved the project into a more consequential development phase.

Cycliq has secured firm commitments for a $1.5 million placement priced at a steep discount, giving the cycling technology company cash for inventory, AI development and other priorities. The raise also comes with a substantial package of options and further dilution subject to shareholder approval.

EV Resources has completed its A$1.52 million rights issue as crushing and screening gets underway at the Tecomatlán antimony plant in Mexico. The company now has Vinatas ore and a 200-tonne Chinantla stockpile available for a production-capable proof-of-concept campaign, although first concentrate and binding offtake agreements remain ahead.
