Latest Debt News

Neurotech International has moved NTI164 into a registration-enabling Phase III autism trial, but its annual report carries a material going-concern warning. The company says post-year-end debt and equity funding should support the program through topline data, subject to execution and completion.

Voltaic Strategic Resources has agreed to acquire five granted Western Australian exploration licences across three gold projects for A$330,000 upfront, with up to A$2 million tied to future Rocky Ridge resource milestones. The deal broadens the explorer’s gold pipeline, but the assets remain at the target-generation stage rather than being defined resources.

Famien Resources will sell its West Yilgarn exploration portfolio to Voltaic Strategic Resources for $330,000 upfront, with a further $2 million tied to future gold resource milestones. The deal gives Famien immediate cash while leaving the larger deferred payment dependent on exploration success by the buyer.

Finder Energy has extended the Kuda Tasi and Jahal project’s Final Investment Decision deadline to 30 November, after widening its international EPCI tender process. The company says debt financing is nearing its final stages, but the delay adds another checkpoint before its late-2027 drilling target.

HealthCo Healthcare and Wellness REIT has signed binding agreements for new leases covering its remaining 10 Healthscope hospitals, subject to final approvals. The resolution allows HCW to reinstate quarterly distributions while reducing its largest tenant concentration from 57% to 31%.

Rox Resources has reached financial close on A$350 million of debt facilities for the Youanmi Gold Mine, removing the conditions that had stood between the funding package and construction spending. The company has initially drawn A$90.2 million in project debt and used a further A$4 million bank guarantee facility allocation.

Vertex Minerals’ Reward Gold Mine produced 679 ounces in its first production year, but the transition came with a A$16.4 million loss, negative operating cash flow and a formal going-concern warning. The company now faces a narrow window to prove its mechanised mining plan can lift production before debt repayments and further funding decisions bite.

Metrics Real Estate Multi-Strategy Fund has released audited FY26 accounts with an unqualified KPMG opinion, reporting $28.2 million in profit after tax and 10.48 cents per unit in distributions. The accounts also expose a $10 million interest-free related-party loan and a temporary halt to applications and redemptions in underlying funds.

Heavy Minerals reported a sharply wider FY2026 loss and a $3.15 million net working capital deficit, with its auditor flagging material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The balance sheet pressure sits alongside stronger project milestones, including a post-year-end Port Gregory study and the push to fund Kanmantoo.

EcoGraf has replaced its earlier Epanko announcement after ASX correspondence, setting out the assumptions behind a potential increase in Stage 1 production to 87,600 tonnes per annum. The higher-throughput case lowers estimated unit costs, but remains preliminary and is not yet the basis for project financing or a final investment decision.

Cobre has completed its A$90 million capital raise, including an approximately A$17.7 million second tranche backed by its two largest shareholders and directors. The proceeds will support Sierra Atacama ownership, debt repayment, plant upgrades and exploration in Chile and Botswana.

FirstWave Cloud Technology has secured an approximately A$1.06 million placement to fund sales conversion and the launch of Open-AudIT 7 and an AI fault-diagnosis product. The raise follows a sharp reduction in losses, positive operating cash flow and a lower cost base, but adds about 151.3 million shares to the register.
