Champion Iron Limited reported a stronger balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, with total assets rising to C$3.43 billion from C$3.03 billion at March 31, 2025, driven by higher cash, increased receivables and substantial investment in property, plant and equipment. Cash and cash equivalents more than doubled to C$245.1 million, inventories declined, and a new investment in a joint venture appeared on the balance sheet, while shareholders’ equity increased to C$1.51 billion, reflecting higher retained earnings and additional share capital despite the elimination of warrants. On the liability side, total obligations grew to C$1.92 billion, largely due to a significant increase in long-term debt and other long-term liabilities, underscoring a more leveraged capital structure as the company continues to fund expansion and development initiatives that could support future production capacity and reinforce its position in the high-grade iron ore market.
