Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Achieved all operational milestones, including a 105% quarter-on-quarter increase in underground ore mined, reaching a 1Mtpa run-rate, and strong plant performance, with open pit completion on track for December quarter.
Cash balance strengthened to AUD 420 million after a successful AUD 316 million equity raise and Ford Motor Company debt restructuring, deferring near-term repayments.
Major infrastructure, including Australia’s largest paste-fill plant and ventilation system, was commissioned to support long-term underground operations.
September quarter marked the planned low point in transition, with improvements expected in production, recoveries, and cash flow in subsequent quarters.
Capital raising and amendments to Ford and Tesla agreements enhanced liquidity and strategic flexibility.
Financial highlights
Revenue for the quarter was AUD 68 million, down 29% quarter-on-quarter due to lower shipping volumes, delayed shipments, and backward-looking pricing.
Unit operating costs rose 22% to AUD 1,093/dmt sold, and all-in sustaining costs increased 10% to AUD 1,354/dmt sold, both expected to trend lower as underground ore becomes dominant.
Cash flow from operations was negative AUD 44 million, mainly due to reduced cash receipts and working capital movements.
Capital expenditure was AUD 44 million, primarily for underground development and TSF construction.
Concentrate production was 87,172 dmt at a weighted average grade of 5.0% Li₂O.
Outlook and guidance
Underground production ramping to 1.5 million tonnes per annum by March 2026, with recovery targets of 70% by Q3 FY 2026.
Open pit mining to conclude in December, transitioning to 100% underground feed.
Operating costs and capital expenditure expected to decline as ramp-up progresses and open pit costs fall away.
FY26 guidance: concentrate production of 365–450 kdmt, unit operating costs AUD 1,060–1,295/dmt sold, AISC AUD 855–1,045/dmt sold, and capital expenditure AUD 100–125 million.
No change to FY 2026 guidance on recovery and concentrate grade (5.2%).

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
