Aldoro Resources has expanded its Kameelburg rare earths, strontium and niobium resource in Namibia to 804.5 million tonnes, including a maiden 162.1Mt Indicated category. The technical progress is substantial, but the annual report also flags a $15.7 million loss, just $78,561 in year-end cash and material uncertainty over ongoing funding.

Macro Metals turned a largely exploratory business into a revenue-generating mining services operator in FY26, with statutory revenue rising to A$1.72 million and approximately A$21.13 million of work awarded. The progress came with a material warning: the auditor said additional funding remains necessary to support the company as it grows.

Streamplay Studio lifted FY26 revenue to A$13.80 million as Noodlecake Studios contributed for a full year, while the statutory loss narrowed and operating cash flow turned positive.

BauMart Holdings returned to profit in FY2026 as revenue surged, but the result came alongside negative operating cash flow, net liabilities and an auditor-flagged material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. A post-year-end $244,463 placement provides near-term funding, while receivables collection remains critical.

Thrive Tribe Technologies has repositioned WooBoard and REFFIND towards defence and workforce software, but its FY26 annual report flags a material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The pivot follows a $3.66 million loss, $2.57 million operating cash outflow and another $1 million placement after year-end.

ION Video has reported a $4.52 million FY2026 loss and a $3.21 million operating cash drain, even as a post-year-end $4.25 million placement lifted its balance sheet. Auditors have preserved their opinion but flagged material uncertainty over the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Manuka Resources has moved its Wonawinta and Mt Boppy restart from planning towards production, but its FY26 annual report carries a qualified audit opinion and warns of material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern. The company recorded no sales revenue, a $28.1 million loss and $26.1 million of operating cash outflows.

Aurora Energy Metals (ASX:1AE) swung to a $21.8 million profit after selling its Oregon uranium project, but the result was driven largely by a non-cash accounting gain. The company’s concentrated Eagle Nuclear Energy stake was valued at about $15.5 million by the annual report date, down from $23.9 million at 30 June.

Cokal returned to coal sales at its BBM project during FY2026, but regulatory suspensions and weak cash generation pushed the company to a US$11.3 million loss and US$29.6 million of net liabilities. An auditor-highlighted material uncertainty over going concern remains, despite a post-year-end extension of major debt repayments.

Indiana Resources has finished FY2026 with A$30.1 million in cash and term deposits, promising exploration results in South Australia and an unresolved dispute over 18% of its Tanzania settlement proceeds. The company is also preparing for Managing Director and CEO Matthew Bowles to leave in November.

RareX has moved Cummins Range through key permitting and heritage milestones, while stronger metallurgical results broaden the project’s critical-minerals potential. But the explorer’s annual loss widened to A$5.07 million, cash burn remained high and its going-concern assessment still depends on future funding and project development.

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.

The opportunity is advancing, but the company remains loss-making, has no JORC resource at Linka and will need further funding as work accelerates.

Lakes Blue Energy reported a $19.67 million FY26 loss, ended the year with just $433,804 in cash and disclosed a material uncertainty over its ability to continue as a going concern.

Vanadium Resources has repositioned its Steelpoortdrift project around a proposed V-Iron plant producing pig iron and vanadium-bearing slag for Western markets.

Alara Resources has swung from a $19.03 million loss to a $19.67 million net profit after tax as its Oman copper operation generated $135.35 million in revenue. The turnaround comes with a material going-concern uncertainty, planned further equity funding and a legal appeal due in November.

Cooper Metals finished FY2026 with a $611,935 loss and $1.81 million in cash, while its post-year-end Pyramid Gold acquisition reshaped the exploration portfolio. The deal brought AIC Mines in as the company’s largest shareholder, but a larger pool of options and performance rights also raises the importance of future funding and exploration results.

NeuRizer has secured agreements worth AUD$12.7 million with Reliance Industries, offering a potential funding bridge for its coal-gasification technology.

Desert Metals expanded its Côte d’Ivoire exploration portfolio during FY2026, with high-grade results at King Kong and Tiogo and a new 7km Nyan gold corridor.
