Latest Impairments News

Perpetual returned to statutory profitability in FY26 and lifted underlying profit and dividends, helped by Corporate Trust and cost savings. But the annual report also exposes the pressure points behind the recovery: $25.1 billion in Asset Management outflows, a $63.5 million TSW impairment and an uncertain Wealth Management sale.

DigiCo Infrastructure REIT is using US asset sales to lower leverage and concentrate capital on its Australian data centre pipeline, led by the fully funded 88MW SYD1 project. The strategy comes alongside a $100.8 million statutory loss, higher distributions and FY27 guidance for 15.0 cents per security.

Ramsay Health Care delivered stronger FY26 earnings, a higher fully franked dividend and improved Funding Group leverage as it prepares to separate Ramsay Santé. The proposed demerger remains conditional, but the company has set a clear timetable for the next phase of its portfolio reshaping.

MetalsGrove Mining has expanded its Côte d’Ivoire gold footprint and begun a 10,000-metre auger campaign, but its FY2026 annual report carries a material going-concern uncertainty. The company ended the year with $1.97 million in cash after raising $2.70 million, while exploration commitments due within 12 months total $1.09 million.

Rand Mining lifted fiscal 2026 net profit by 82% to A$23.9 million as gold sales rose and Golden Hind delivered its first ore. The result was also helped by a A$8.7 million Raleigh impairment reversal, while higher costs, inventory and development spending reduced cash generation.

Australasian Metals has paired a sharply smaller annual loss with a $1.05 million placement aimed at exploring two proposed Côte d’Ivoire lithium projects. The projects remain an option, not an acquisition, while May Queen drilling is being prepared in Queensland.

Fin Resources’ first drilling campaign at Cabin Lake delivered gold in all eight holes, including two high-grade shallow intersections at Arrow. But the ASX-listed explorer also reported a sharply wider loss, a major impairment and an auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over its ability to continue without further capital.

Sonic Healthcare delivered a strong FY2026, with underlying net profit up 17% to A$621 million and dividends rising to A$1.08 per share. The next test is whether US efficiencies, LADR synergies and organic growth can offset Swiss fee cuts, a delayed UK contract ramp-up and heavier investment demands.

Nick Scali delivered a sharp recovery in FY26 earnings, with net profit rising 31.2% to $75.7 million as gross margins widened and the UK loss narrowed. The furniture retailer is entering FY27 with a larger showroom network, a new distribution centre and four further ANZ openings planned.

Peninsula Energy expects to book an approximately US$50 million non-cash impairment against legacy assets at its Lance uranium project in Wyoming. The charge removes value from Mine Units 1, 2 and 3 as the company concentrates capital and technical resources on Mine Unit 4 and future development.

Comet Ridge now controls the entire Mahalo Gas Hub after completing its Santos buyout, but the annual report flags a material uncertainty over funding and a potential $28.7 million CleanCo settlement. The company is targeting a final investment decision while remaining pre-production and reliant on further finance.

Tambourah Metals has reported high-grade exploration results at Beatty Park South and Tambourah King, alongside a stronger cash position and a reduced annual loss. The projects remain at exploration stage, with drilling and resource modelling now carrying the story forward.
