Helios Energy has posted a A$23.1 million FY2026 loss after writing off A$21.35 million in exploration assets. Its Presidio project retains a 17.5 million-barrel-of-oil-equivalent 2C contingent resource estimate, but the company warns that continued operations depend on further funding.

Noronex Limited (ASX:NRX) swung to a A$1.145 million statutory profit in FY2026, but the result was driven mainly by tenement disposal gains while operating cash outflows increased sharply. The auditor also highlighted material uncertainty over the explorer’s ability to continue without further funding.

West Coast Silver has crossed from explorer to resource-stage company after defining 2.795 million ounces of contained silver at Elizabeth Hill. The project has generated strong drilling results and fresh funding, but the company remains loss-making and yet to establish an economic development case.

EcoGraf’s underwritten share purchase plan raised $3.552 million, well above its $2 million target, after shareholders applied for the full oversubscription. The result gives the company additional funding while leaving the final issue price and dilution to be confirmed.

Rincon Resources posted a $6.96 million FY2026 loss after writing down $5.53 million of exploration assets, while its cash balance rose following a $3.1 million placement. The explorer has narrowed its focus to Telfer South and Crackerbox, but remains dependent on future drilling and funding.

Reedy Lagoon is relying on shareholder approval for a $1.8 million underwritten placement after ending the year with $44,416 in cash and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The recapitalisation would fund exploration, but comes with substantial dilution and a staged repayment of related-party debt.

Ridley Corporation’s first full reporting year with the Incitec Pivot Fertilisers distribution business produced a sharp lift in underlying earnings and cash flow, despite a steep fall in statutory profit after a $31.8 million NovaqPro impairment. Management expects earnings growth across all three segments in FY27, but the enlarged group now carries significantly more debt and integration work.

H3 Energy has consolidated ownership of its Alinya hydrogen and helium project and reframed Warro as a potential commercial gas development, but its annual report warns that funding remains critical. The company ended FY2026 with A$900,434 in cash, net liabilities of A$551,671 and a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

NewPeak Metals reported a $4.36 million FY2026 profit, but the result was driven mainly by fair-value gains and investment disposals rather than mining revenue. The auditor has flagged a material uncertainty over going concern even after the explorer secured a post-year-end $3.5 million placement.

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.

Resolution Minerals has turned Horse Heaven into the centre of its strategy, pairing broad gold drilling with high-grade antimony and tungsten test work. The expansion came with a sharply higher A$53.3 million FY2026 loss and a disclosed dependence on future funding.

North Stawell Minerals has expanded and refined its Darlington-Caledonia exploration targets, including a post-year-end intercept of 0.4 metres at 17.1 g/t gold. But the gold explorer ended FY2026 with $701,960 in cash, a deeper loss and an auditor warning that further funding is needed to sustain operations.
