▲(10.00% Upside)
The score is driven primarily by weak fundamentals—ongoing losses, negative margins, and sustained cash burn—partly offset by a relatively clean balance sheet with minimal debt. Technical indicators are mostly neutral with a negative MACD, and valuation is constrained by a negative P/E and no dividend support.
Positive Factors
Low leverage / minimal debt
A near-zero debt position reduces fixed financing costs and interest exposure, preserving financial flexibility for exploration cycles. This durable strength helps the company pursue project work or fund raises with fewer balance-sheet constraints, supporting long-term project development.
Equity growth supporting asset base
Material equity growth strengthens the capital base and underpins a larger asset footing for exploration and development. A bigger equity cushion reduces immediate insolvency risk and provides room to absorb exploration write-offs while pursuing resource definition and transaction opportunities.
Revenue rebound indicates improving activity
A substantial top-line rebound signals resumed or ramped operational activity and potential project progress. While still small versus costs, sustained revenue improvement over quarters would indicate execution momentum and greater ability to scale project work without solely relying on financing.
Negative Factors
Structural unprofitability
Negative gross profit and a multi-million dollar net loss show the current business cannot cover operating costs from core activities. This structural deficit requires persistent external funding and undermines long-term shareholder value unless operational economics or scale improve materially.
Persistent cash burn and negative free cash flow
Sustained negative operating and free cash flow depletes liquidity and shortens runway, forcing recurring capital raises. Over the medium term this constrains the firm's ability to advance projects independently and increases dilution and financing risk if capital markets tighten.
Negative returns on equity and dilution risk
Consistently negative ROE shows invested capital is not generating value, increasing pressure for dilutive financings to sustain operations. Unless management delivers profitable projects or cost discipline, shareholder value is likely to be eroded by further equity issuance or asset write-downs.

Additionally, 3D Resources Limited may engage in joint ventures and partnerships with other mining companies to share exploration costs and revenues, thereby enhancing its financial returns. The company's earnings are influenced by factors such as mineral prices, exploration success, operational efficiency, and strategic partnerships that help expand its resource base and market presence.

3D Resources Limited Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Despite a sharp FY2025 revenue rebound, the company remains structurally unprofitable with negative gross profit, a large net loss (~2.0M), and persistent operating/free cash flow burn (FY2025 OCF ~-1.16M; FCF ~-2.56M). The balance sheet is a relative strength with minimal debt and higher equity, but ongoing losses and cash burn imply continued funding dependence.
Income Statement
18
Very Negative
Revenue rebounded sharply in FY2025 (to ~378k from ~29k in FY2024), showing improved activity, but the business remains structurally unprofitable. Gross profit is still negative and losses are large (FY2025 net loss ~2.0M) with deeply negative net margins, indicating the current revenue base is far too small to absorb operating costs. Overall: improving top-line trajectory, but profitability and margin profile remain very weak.
Balance Sheet
62
Positive
The balance sheet is a relative strength: debt is minimal-to-none (FY2025 total debt reported at 0; FY2024–FY2023 at ~250k), keeping leverage low. Equity increased meaningfully by FY2025 (~9.7M vs ~6.1M FY2024), supporting a larger asset base. The key weakness is consistently negative returns on equity, reflecting ongoing losses and value dilution risk if funding needs continue.
Cash Flow
22
Negative
Cash generation remains weak with persistent negative operating cash flow (FY2025 ~-1.16M) and negative free cash flow (FY2025 ~-2.56M), implying continued funding dependence. While free cash flow relative to net loss appears better than the accounting loss in some years, cash burn is still substantial and free cash flow worsened versus FY2024 in absolute terms. Overall: ongoing cash outflows limit financial flexibility despite some year-to-year variability.

Adelong Gold Refocuses on Victorian Gold–Antimony Assets After Challenger Divestment
Jan 27, 2026

Adelong Gold’s December 2025 quarter saw active drilling across its Victorian assets, with six diamond holes completed at the Lauriston Gold Project intersecting quartz-sulphide mineralisation characteristic of an epizonal gold–antimony system and visible gold noted in the Comet Shear, while drilling continued north along strike at the Yankee-Trojan prospect. At the Apollo Gold and Antimony Project, maiden drilling confirmed a coherent gold–antimony system beneath historic workings and the continuity of mineralisation, supported by regional soil and auger geochemistry that extends anomalies and generates new targets for infill sampling and future drilling. In parallel, the company agreed to sell its 49% stake in the Challenger Gold Project in New South Wales to Great Divide Mining, a move aimed at strengthening its balance sheet, eliminating funding commitments, and sharpening operational focus on its Victorian projects, as it navigates board changes without expecting an impact on key strategic relationships.

Jan 27, 2026

Adelong Gold Director Louie Simens Resigns, Strategic Ties with Nova to Continue
Jan 27, 2026

Adelong Gold Limited has announced the resignation of Non-Executive Director Louie Simens, effective 27 January 2026, citing personal reasons; his departure follows his earlier resignation as Executive Director of Nova Minerals and comes only months after he joined the Adelong board following Nova’s $1 million strategic investment. The company does not expect the board change to affect its strategic relationship with Nova Minerals, signalling continuity in its broader corporate and funding arrangements despite the governance shift.

Adelong Gold Retracts Historical Soil Data from Apollo Project Update
Jan 23, 2026

Adelong Gold Limited has retracted historical soil sampling data previously referenced in an announcement on its Apollo Gold-Antimony Project, after ASX advised the information could not be disclosed under the ASX Listing Rules and the JORC Code. The company has issued a revised version of the announcement with the non-compliant historical soil geochemistry removed and stressed that the retracted information should not be relied upon, while confirming that no new exploration results are being reported in this correction, which primarily affects the transparency and regulatory compliance of its project disclosures rather than its underlying exploration activities.

Adelong Gold Extends Soil Anomalies at Apollo Project, Flags Further Exploration
Jan 21, 2026

Adelong Gold has completed a broad-spaced auger soil sampling program over roughly 11km along the Strathbogie Granite contact at its Apollo Gold-Antimony Project, collecting 218 samples to test for extensions of historical surface geochemical anomalies near the Meade’s and Woolf’s/Falk’s open cuts. The new assay results confirm and extend historical gold-in-soil anomalism by about 200 metres to the south, including a peak soil result of 259 ppb gold south of the Woolfe’s/Falk prospect, reinforcing the interpretation of a larger, largely untested mineralised system and prompting plans for infill soil and rock-chip sampling and a potential follow-up drilling campaign that could materially influence future exploration strategy and project scale.

Adelong Gold Updates Lauriston Disclosure as Drilling Extends to Yankee-Trojan
Jan 21, 2026

Adelong Gold Limited has amended a recent announcement on drilling at its Lauriston Gold-Antimony Project to provide additional technical disclosure on visual mineralisation observed in drillhole AC2502, including descriptions of mineral occurrence, identified minerals, visual abundance estimates, and updated JORC 2012 reporting for sections relevant to that hole while assays are pending. The company confirmed that six diamond drillholes totalling 1,481.6 metres have been completed at the Comet prospect, all intersecting the Comet Shear with arsenic halos typical of upper levels of Victorian Au-As-Sb epizonal systems, that diamond drilling has now commenced at the nearby Yankee-Trojan prospect along strike, and that assay results for the Comet holes are expected in Q1 2026 amid laboratory delays, maintaining momentum in what management views as systematic progress toward a potential discovery.

Adelong Gold Advances Lauriston Drilling as Comet Results Awaited
Jan 20, 2026

Adelong Gold has completed six diamond drillholes totaling 1,481.6 metres at the Comet prospect within its Lauriston Gold-Antimony Project, intersecting the Comet Shear in every hole and observing arsenic-rich halos and quartz-sulphide veining consistent with Victorian epizonal gold-arsenic-antimony systems. With assays pending, the company has now commenced diamond drilling at the nearby Yankee-Trojan prospect and signalled it is ready to expand the fully funded program with deeper and step-out drilling, as well as additional mapping and geochemical work, underscoring its strategic push to confirm a larger-scale gold system and potentially strengthen its exploration footprint in a highly prospective Victorian gold belt.

Adelong Gold Options Lapse, Trimming Potential Future Dilution
Dec 23, 2025
