Kelsian Group has completed the $149.9 million sale of its Tourism Portfolio to Journey Beyond, reducing pro forma leverage to approximately 2.0x. The transport operator has reset FY27 Underlying EBITDA guidance to $295 million-$310 million as it shifts towards commuter and contracted services.

Deterra Royalties has paid US$74.15 million for a royalty covering most of Ivanhoe Electric’s Santa Cruz copper project in Arizona. The deal adds a third core asset, but its projected returns still depend on financing, permitting and a targeted 2029 production start.

Embelton Limited (ASX:EMB) grew revenue, profit and operating cash flow in FY2026 despite subdued residential construction, while maintaining its 35-cent fully franked annual dividend.

New Murchison Gold turned its Crown Prince operation into a powerful cash generator, reporting $146.95 million in net profit after tax and $201.7 million in cash for the nine months to 30 June 2026. The next test is whether Cloudkicker, Lydia and the Crown Prince underground opportunity can extend that performance.

New Murchison Gold has added a maiden 21,000-ounce Ore Reserve at Cloudkicker while reporting a group Mineral Resource of 353,700 ounces.

Strike Energy has moved South Erregulla into final commissioning and lifted West Erregulla’s net 2P reserves by about 20%, but the project-heavy year came with sharply lower earnings and operating cash flow. The company is now relying on execution, financing and new production to convert a larger asset base into cash generation.

Pantoro Gold says Norseman has produced 19,130 ounces quarter-to-date, keeping FY2027 output within reach of its 90,000 to 105,000-ounce target. A second open pit is now delivering ore while Racetrack drilling continues to build a potential future mine source.

Dyno Nobel has reaffirmed its FY26 outlook and retained its A$600 million FY28 underlying EBIT ambition, while setting a new A$800 million target for FY31. The explosives maker is positioning defence energetics, premium technology and growth in mining markets as the next leg of expansion.

Pan African Resources delivered record FY26 production, earnings and cash generation, moving from net debt to a US$185.7 million net cash position.

True North Copper expanded its copper growth pipeline in FY26, but the annual report makes clear that exploration momentum still depends on fresh capital. The company ended the year with A$7.1 million in cash and a A$7.5 million Mt Oxide payment due in December.
