▲(3.33% Upside)
Action:DowngradedDate:02/26/26
The score is driven primarily by very weak financial performance (zero/minimal revenue, large ongoing losses, sustained negative cash flow) and increased balance-sheet risk from sharply higher debt alongside reduced equity. Technicals are also bearish (negative MACD, price below the 50-day average), while valuation offers limited support due to negative earnings and no dividend yield data.
Positive Factors
Investment/incubation model optionality
DGR’s incubation/investment model creates durable optionality: by acquiring and advancing projects then farming out, spinning or selling stakes, the company can generate outsized, non-linear returns as assets are de-risked. That structural model supports episodic monetisation potential even with low recurring revenue.
Sizeable asset base supports monetisation
A tangible asset base (~A$47.3m) provides a foundation for the incubation model: assets can be farmed out, sold or used as equity in corporate transactions. This reduces pure cash-dependency and gives management discrete assets to realise value from, supporting medium-term recovery options.
Lean cost base and low market volatility
A very small headcount (5 employees) limits fixed overhead, preserving runway between capital raises and allowing focused portfolio management. Low beta indicates limited market sensitivity, which can reduce financing volatility and help management execute longer-dated exploration and corporate outcomes with lower short-term market pressure.
Negative Factors
Revenue collapsed to zero in 2025
The absence of operating revenue in 2025 means the business cannot self-fund activity through sales, making the company structurally reliant on sporadic transaction proceeds or external capital. That dependency increases execution risk for advancing projects and reduces resilience to funding interruptions.
Worsening operating cash burn
Sustained and growing negative operating cash flow materially shortens runway and forces dependence on dilutive capital raises or distressed asset sales. Even with reported FCF improvement versus 2024, persistent large outflows impair the ability to selectively fund high-return work and elevate refinancing and execution risk.
Rising debt and compressed equity cushion
A sharp rise in debt and a markedly smaller equity base (leverage ~2.0x) reduce financial flexibility and increase interest/refinancing exposure. The diminished equity cushion limits the company's ability to absorb further losses or fund exploration without significant dilution, threatening the viability of long-term development plans.

DGR Global Limited Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company DescriptionDGR Global Limited, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the exploration and development of mineral properties. It explores for a range of commodities, including copper, gold, nickel, silver, tin, uranium, copper, molybdenum, vanadium, iron, lithium, cobalt, and oil and gas, as well as zinc deposits. The company's flagship project is the Kanywataba block that covers approximately 344 square kilometers located in Albertine Graben, Uganda. The company was formerly known as D'Aguilar Gold Limited and changed its name to DGR Global Limited in November 2011. DGR Global Limited was incorporated in 1991 and is based in Brisbane, Australia.
How the Company Makes MoneyDGR Global Limited makes money primarily through its strategic investments and holdings in resource companies. The company generates revenue by acquiring and developing resource projects with significant potential and then monetizing these projects through sales, joint ventures, or public offerings. DGR Global holds equity interests in various exploration and mining companies, and it benefits financially when these entities succeed in their respective ventures. Additionally, the company may receive income through dividends, management fees, and capital gains from the sale of its interests in these projects. Strategic partnerships and joint ventures with other mining and exploration companies also play a crucial role in enhancing DGR Global's financial returns.

DGR Global Limited Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Financial performance is severely stressed: revenue is minimal and declining to zero in 2025, losses remain large and persistent (net income deeply negative), and operating/free cash flow are consistently negative with worsening operating cash burn in 2025. Balance sheet risk increased as debt rose sharply while equity shrank, reducing flexibility to fund ongoing losses.
Income Statement
12
Very Negative
Operating performance is very weak. Revenue is minimal and has trended down sharply from 2021–2024 (A$1.44m to A$0.16m), and 2025 shows zero revenue. Losses are persistent and large, with net income deteriorating from -A$1.1m (2021) to -A$46.7m (2024) and remaining deeply negative at -A$13.8m (2025). The apparent 100% gross margin in several years is not a strength here given the extremely small revenue base and heavy overheads driving sustained operating losses.
Balance Sheet
35
Negative
Balance sheet quality has weakened meaningfully. Debt increased materially to A$29.2m in 2025 from A$10.3m in 2024, pushing leverage higher (debt-to-equity rising to ~2.0x in 2025 from ~0.34x in 2024). Equity has also declined substantially versus prior years (from >A$100m in 2022–2023 to ~A$14.9m in 2025), reducing the cushion for continued losses. A positive is that total assets are still sizable (~A$47.3m in 2025), but returns on equity are consistently negative, highlighting ongoing value erosion.
Cash Flow
18
Very Negative
Cash generation is poor and worsening. Operating cash flow is negative every year shown and widened to -A$12.4m in 2025 from -A$5.6m in 2024, while free cash flow is also consistently negative (down to -A$12.8m in 2025). Free cash flow did improve versus 2024 (reported growth +70.9%), but it remains a sizable cash outflow. Cash burn alongside rising leverage increases funding risk if losses persist.

DGR Global Moves to Remedy ASX Listing Rule Breach on Related-Party Loan
Feb 8, 2026

DGR Global Limited has disclosed that the ASX considers it to be in breach of Listing Rule 10.1 over a recent $500,000 advance drawn under a related-party facility with Samuel Holdings Pty Ltd, secured against all of DGR’s assets. The company initially believed this tranche did not require separate shareholder approval because the security had been previously approved and the amount was less than 5% of its equity, but ASX viewed it as a separate transaction requiring prior approval.

To address the breach, DGR will seek shareholder approval for the $500,000 tranche as well as for a further $1 million of potential drawdowns under the same facility, after ASX refused previous waiver applications. The company plans to convene a general meeting in late March or early April 2026, supported by an independent expert’s report, signalling closer regulatory scrutiny of its related-party financing structures and underscoring the need for shareholder endorsement of future funding arrangements.

DGR Global Clarifies Board Process and Stance on Jiangxi Copper’s Offer for SolGold
Feb 2, 2026

DGR Global Limited, a resources project generator, builds and nurtures exploration and mining companies by identifying commodities with strong long-term prospects in under-explored but well-endowed geological regions, particularly where regulatory and socio-economic conditions are improving. The company relies on advanced exploration techniques and an in-house geoscience team to secure and advance attractive resource projects.

In a clarification to its recent quarterly report, DGR Global stated that its assessment of Jiangxi Copper (Hong Kong) Investment Company Limited’s takeover offer for London-listed SolGold plc was conducted by all DGR directors except managing director Nicholas Mather, who recused himself due to his dual role as a SolGold non-executive director. The board majority considers the Jiangxi Copper offer inadequate as it significantly undervalues SolGold, though DGR has not yet finalised how it will vote at SolGold’s 23 February 2026 general meeting and plans to update the market once a decision is made.

DGR Global Reaffirms Resource Incubation Strategy and Rejects Valuation of SolGold Stake
Jan 30, 2026

DGR Global Limited has reiterated its strategy as a generator and incubator of resource exploration and mining companies, emphasizing its competitive edge in internally originating exploration projects, focusing on large provincial tenement positions, and using advanced exploration and metallurgical techniques in promising jurisdictions. In its latest quarterly activities update, the company noted that it considers Jiangxi Copper Investment’s bid for its 6.8% holding in SolGold Plc to be inadequate given the potential of SolGold’s Ecuadorean copper-gold assets, and highlighted ongoing reviews and appraisal of its copper and gold exploration targets and tenements across entities such as Auburn Resources, Coolgarra Resources, Pinnacle Gold and the historic Shamrock mine site in Queensland, reinforcing DGR’s long-term value proposition through its portfolio of early- to mid-stage resource investments.
