The latest announcement is out from Orbital Corporation Limited ( (AU:OEC) ).

Orbital UAV reported a materially improved cash performance for the quarter to 31 December 2025, with operating cash inflow of $0.5 million and a modest net cash outflow of $0.2 million, ending the period with $3.5 million in cash, an undrawn $2 million loan facility and expected R&D grant receipts in the March 2026 quarter that together provide additional funding headroom. Operationally, the company continued deliveries of its 150cc heavy fuel engines to a major defence systems customer, completed an engineering upgrade and initial deliveries for Textron’s Aerosonde 4.7 platform, advanced Indian flight trials with further engine shipments, and moved to capitalise on rising demand for higher-capacity UAV powerplants by starting manufacture of 10 units of its new 350cc heavy fuel engine for integration and evaluation by both defence and commercial customers, underscoring its positioning as a key propulsion supplier to the rapidly expanding UAV market.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:OEC) stock is a Hold with a A$0.13 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Orbital Corporation Limited stock, see the AU:OEC Stock Forecast page.
