Strategy and market opportunity

• Four-pillar strategy: grow GaN laser market share, deepen U.S. government relationships, extend technology leadership and partnerships, and pursue organic and inorganic growth and integration.

• Laser-enabled markets cited at $150B TAM by 2030; selected priority markets represent a $4.6B system-level opportunity, including defense and aerospace, quantum, industrial and microelectronics, biotech and consumer applications.

• Visible GaN lasers are positioned for applications where wavelength, power, beam quality, precision, form factor or integration affect performance; defense modernization, quantum investment and sovereign supply-chain priorities are cited as demand drivers.

• U.S. and allied government priorities are accelerating adoption of sovereign, domestically manufactured laser technologies for defense systems and quantum infrastructure.

Platform and commercial validation

• End-to-end visible GaN capabilities span epitaxy and materials, device design and fabrication, packaging and integration, across specialized facilities in Sydney, Silicon Valley and New Hampshire.

• Differentiators include customization, proprietary IP, manufacturing flexibility, precision, power and stability; active programs span U.S. government, defense and aerospace, data storage, quantum photonics, med-tech and advanced photonics.

• Customer-funded development is progressing through evaluation, funded development, qualification and prototype testing toward product orders; production and recurring agreements remain potential outcomes, not guarantees.

• FY26 proof points included CLAWS Year 1–3 milestones completed, a ~A$1.25M Tier-1 defense program, a ~A$1.3M Fortune 500 collaboration, a ~A$190K TOPTICA order and Uviquity Phase II commitment of ~A$1.4M.

• Single-spatial-mode performance reached 1.9 W in FY26, up from 1.25 W in 2025; reliability, yield, wavelength expansion and product qualification are key next steps.

FY26 financial position

• FY26 capital raised was A$14.6M; an A$8M Rockford non-dilutive debt facility supports operating expenditure, capital expenditure and project execution.

• At 30 June 2026, cash was A$2.55M and net assets were A$11.34M; customer receipts were A$4.23M.

• Laser product revenue was A$498K, up 36%; laser project revenue declined 25% amid U.S. government shutdowns, while legacy Foundry revenue declined 9%.

• Gross expenditure was A$20.87M, 8% favorable; operating cash outflow was A$8.30M and consolidated loss was A$10.39M.

• U.S. funding delays and continuing-resolution constraints delayed 1H FY26 awards and revenue; customer-funded programs awarded in 2H contributed to stronger Q4 project revenue, with quarterly variability expected from milestone-driven work.
