Tlou Energy has generated its first revenue from gas-derived power at the Lesedi project, but the milestone sits alongside a A$59.96 million loss, minimal cash and a material going-concern uncertainty. Proposed debt conversions could reduce liabilities, yet neither transaction is binding or provides new funding.

Botala Energy’s Serowe CBM project has reached its most important testing phase after well 3.5B delivered strong early water production and casing pressure. The operational progress is material, but the company still faces a funding hurdle and has not yet demonstrated sustained commercial gas flow.

Heavy Rare Earths has identified high-grade heavy rare earth zones at Subron while preparing drilling across its South Australian portfolio. But the FY2026 report also highlights a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, with only $459,327 in cash at year-end.

Rumble Resources has moved Western Queen closer to a potential 2027 gold start, pairing a larger resource with third-party processing access and A$10 million in royalty funding. The project remains pre-production, however, with approvals, financing, feasibility work and a final investment decision still outstanding.

Surefire Resources has flagged a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern after reporting a $2.07 million annual loss and $1.30 million in operating cash outflows. The company is advancing Victory Bore and Yidby, but both projects remain tied to funding, approvals and further execution.

International Equities Corporation Ltd (ASX:IEQ) returned to a statutory profit in FY2026, but the result was largely supported by discontinued tourism operations while continuing activities remained loss-making. An auditor’s material uncertainty warning and a new secured $1.2 million loan put liquidity at the centre of the investment case.

Conico's statutory loss widened sharply in FY2026, largely because of non-cash share-based payments linked to its recapitalisation. The company ended the year debt free with $2.53 million in cash, but warned that funding remains critical as it prepares for Mt Thirsty drilling.

KGL Resources says its Jervois copper project is funded through construction and ramp-up after a US$300 million Wheaton agreement and a post-year-end A$300 million equity raising. The company is now targeting a final investment decision in the second half of 2026 and first copper concentrate in 2028, while its annual report highlights the execution risks still attached to that timetable.

Macquarie Global Yield Maximiser Fund delivered a 48.6% increase in operating profit and more than doubled net assets to A$340.7 million in the year to 30 June 2026. The expansion came alongside sharply higher distributions, although the portfolio’s larger exposure to debt securities leaves interest rates and credit spreads central to the next phase.

Macquarie Core Australian Equity Active ETF more than doubled its net assets to $1.138 billion in the year to 30 June 2026, powered by $676.067 million of new applications. Profit rose 50% to $33.876 million, while distributions increased to 30.93 cents per unit.

PDI Gold’s first full annual report after its Robex merger shows a transformed West African gold business with US$193.7 million in cash and two producing mines. The statutory result remains a US$63.7 million loss, while Bankan’s next phase still depends on an exploitation permit from Guinea.

KTEK Aerosystems has restarted deliveries under its principal production program, with an initial batch ready for collection from its European manufacturing network. The company has also lifted stated monthly manufacturing capacity to 200 units, although future revenue remains dependent on output, acceptance and logistics.
