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.

Latrobe Magnesium has moved its demonstration plant into the final installation stage for magnesium metal, but its annual report flags a material uncertainty over whether the loss-making group can continue as a going concern. The company had $1.09 million in cash at 30 June and has since secured an $8.5 million equity raising to fund commissioning and corporate costs.

GWA Group delivered its third consecutive year of volume growth in FY26, lifting revenue, normalised EBIT and its fully franked dividend despite weak housing and renovation conditions. The trade-off was a sharp decline in operating cash flow and higher net debt following inventory purchases and a $25 million share buyback.

WIN Metals has lodged two major Western Australian permit applications covering the proposed restart of its Radio Gold Project. The milestone advances the project toward construction, but funding, approvals and a final investment decision remain outstanding.

Metals Australia has established a maiden 45.7Mt Inferred VTM resource at Manindi West, alongside test work producing titanium oxide above 99% purity. The opportunity is sizeable, but remains an early-stage resource supported by conceptual expansion targets and screening-level economics.

Cannindah Resources has expanded drilling at its Mt Cannindah copper-gold project, identifying the Southern Shoot and extending the Southern Porphyry Target, while equity raisings lifted cash to $14.1 million. The exploration-led result came with a larger annual loss and a substantially expanded share count.

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.

Bannerman Energy has completed CNOL’s US$320.4 million strategic investment in the Etango uranium project, giving the joint venture approximately US$303 million in cash and a debt-free construction pathway. The project now moves towards a Final Investment Decision and full-scale construction targeted for Q4 2026.

LinQ Minerals finished its first full year as an ASX-listed explorer with $16.23 million in cash after spending heavily on Gilmore drilling and raising $15.4 million. The company reported encouraging gold and copper results, but its next phase will test whether exploration success can translate into a larger resource and a credible development pathway.

Stellar Resources has lifted its Heemskirk tin resource to 115.3kt of contained tin while technical studies move toward a prefeasibility study outcome. The company is better funded, but remains pre-revenue and faces the usual capital, permitting and execution hurdles of mine development.

Lunnon Metals has delivered thick, consistent gold intersections at the Plentiful prospect, where drilling now sits at approximately 20m by 20m spacing. The company is moving towards modelling and economic assessment, although a separate deep-drilling target failed to deliver enough encouragement for further work.

Caspin Resources has reported its strongest Bygoo tin intersection to date, while early test work points to 83.8% tin recovery into a high-grade concentrate. The gains come with familiar exploration-stage caveats: a $5.70 million annual loss, $5.03 million of operating cash outflow and continued reliance on equity funding.

Volt Group delivered a steep lift in HY26 revenue, adjusted EBITDA, profit and operating cash flow, with the 4D Delta acquisition providing the largest contribution. The mining technology company also expanded its Westgold solar-lighting fleet and advanced Wescone’s crusher technology.

Tungsten Mining has appointed Jefferies Australia to pursue strategic investors for its Watershed tungsten project, adding a global investment bank to a funding campaign already covering debt, offtake and government support. The move expands the options around a project with a reported A$1.309 billion pre-tax NPV8, but no funding deal or Final Investment Decision has been secured.

2 Cheap Cars has opened FY27 with a sharp lift in unaudited profit and margins, even as vehicle volumes declined. The improvement arrives alongside Sena & Co’s increased NZ$0.90-per-share takeover offer, which remains conditional on reaching 90% voting control by 30 September.

Me Today reported a NZ$2.66 million FY26 profit, but the result was dominated by a NZ$4.12 million gain from losing control of King Honey. The remaining business grew revenue and improved its operating loss, yet continued to consume cash and will rely on October warrant funding.
