Action:ReiteratedDate:02/03/26
The score is held down primarily by weak fundamentals: despite a FY2025 revenue rebound, the company is still loss-making with ongoing cash burn, implying continued reliance on funding. Technicals are moderately supportive (positive MACD and price above the 50-day average) but are tempered by an extremely overextended RSI. Valuation remains challenged because losses make P/E less informative and there is no dividend yield support.
Positive Factors
Balance sheet strength
Near-zero leverage is a durable financial strength: it lowers insolvency risk, preserves borrowing capacity, and gives management flexibility to raise equity or execute strategic investments without heavy interest burdens. That structural conservatism supports runway while revenues recover.
Revenue rebound
A large YoY revenue rebound signals improving product-market traction rather than one-off noise. If sustained, this trend can enable operational gearing, narrowing losses and improving margin leverage over 2–6 months as fixed costs are spread and unit economics begin to scale.
Cash accounting transparency
FCF moving in line with net loss indicates limited non-cash distortions, improving visibility into true cash burn. That transparency aids durable planning, clearer lender/investor assessment of funding needs, and more reliable near-term cashflow forecasting for strategic decisions.
Negative Factors
Ongoing net losses
Sustained material net losses erode equity, limit internal reinvestment, and increase reliance on external capital. Over several quarters this can force dilution or cost cuts, constrain strategic initiatives, and make it harder to achieve durable profitability without a clear path to break-even.
Negative operating cash flow
Consistent negative operating and free cash flow creates an enduring funding requirement. This structural cash burn limits ability to invest in growth, raises refinancing risk, and may lead to dilution or higher-cost financing that weakens long-term returns if cash generation does not improve.
Deeply negative margins / small scale
Very small revenue base combined with deep negative margins implies limited operating scale and high fixed-cost absorption risk. Without meaningful and sustained revenue growth, margin recovery will be difficult, leaving profitability and cash generation fragile over the medium term.

MinRex Resources Limited Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company DescriptionMinRex Resources Limited engages in the exploration and development of mineral properties. It focuses on the exploration of gold, silver, copper, and other base metal projects in New South Wales (NSW) and Western Australia. The company holds 70% interests in the Marble Bar North, Marble Bar South, Daltons, and Bamboo Creek gold projects in the East Pilbara region of Western Australia; and 100% interests in the Deflector Extended Gold project located at Gullewa in Western Australia. It also holds 7 exploration licenses in Mt Pleasant, Sofala, and Sunny Corner Projects with an area of 514 square kilometers in the Lachlan Fold Belt in NSW; and exploration licenses in lithium and tantalum deposits, as well as holds farm-in rights for 80% interest in EL7974 and EL7423 projects, and 90% interest in the exploration area of EL 5964 project. The company was formerly known as MinRex Resources NL and changed its name to MinRex Resources Limited in January 2016. MinRex Resources Limited was incorporated in 2011 and is based in Perth, Australia.
How the Company Makes MoneyMinRex Resources Limited makes money primarily through the exploration and development of mineral resources, specifically targeting gold and base metals. The company generates revenue by discovering economically viable mineral deposits, which can then be developed into profitable mining operations. This may involve selling mineral rights, entering joint ventures, or selling discovered resources to larger mining companies. Strategic partnerships with other mining firms and investors can also provide financial support and revenue opportunities through shared exploration costs and potential project advancements. MinRex Resources' earnings are significantly influenced by mineral market prices, exploration success, and the company's ability to efficiently manage exploration activities.

MinRex Resources Limited Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Revenue rebounded sharply in FY2025, but the company remains far from break-even with a sizable net loss (~$2.36M) and deeply negative margins. The balance sheet is a relative strength with essentially no debt, but persistent losses and ongoing negative operating/free cash flow (~-$1.23M FCF in FY2025) keep financial risk elevated due to continued funding needs.
Income Statement
12
Very Negative
Revenue is very small in absolute terms but did rebound sharply in FY2025 (up ~119% YoY). Despite this uptick, profitability remains very weak: FY2025 net loss was about $2.36M and margins were deeply negative, indicating the cost base is far ahead of current revenue generation. While losses improved materially versus FY2024, the business is still far from break-even and earnings volatility is high.
Balance Sheet
68
Positive
The balance sheet is a relative strength, with essentially no debt (debt-to-equity ~0.0 in FY2025) and equity funding the asset base. Total assets are broadly supported by shareholders’ equity, reducing near-term financial risk from leverage. The key weakness is persistent negative returns on equity driven by ongoing losses, which can pressure equity over time if cash burn continues.
Cash Flow
20
Very Negative
Cash generation remains weak, with operating cash flow and free cash flow negative across all periods shown (FY2025 operating cash flow about -$1.23M; free cash flow about -$1.23M). The cash burn did improve versus FY2024, but the company is still consuming cash rather than producing it, implying continued reliance on funding. A positive note is that free cash flow tracked net loss reasonably closely, suggesting limited non-cash distortions, but overall cash sustainability remains a concern.

MinRex Moves to Merge With Electrum, Building Serbia–Australia Gold-Copper Platform
Jan 29, 2026

MinRex Resources has advanced a proposed merger with Canadian TSX-V listed Electrum Discovery Corp., a gold and copper exploration company focused on Serbia’s Western Tethyan Belt, culminating after the quarter in a definitive agreement for MinRex to acquire 100% of Electrum via a statutory plan of arrangement. The deal, unanimously backed by both boards and strongly supported by Electrum shareholders, is expected to close in March 2026 and will create a well‑capitalised, ASX‑listed gold‑copper explorer with a dual focus on Serbia and Australia, anchored by Electrum’s advanced Tlamino Gold Project and the Timok East Copper‑Gold Project alongside MinRex’s Australian exploration portfolio; MinRex also continued technical work on its Australian assets, particularly in the Lachlan Gold Belt, and ended the quarter with $8.3 million in cash, underscoring a solid funding position for ongoing exploration and integration activities.

MinRex Wins ASX Waiver to Issue Shares for Electrum Merger Without Shareholder Vote
Jan 29, 2026

MinRex Resources Limited has secured an ASX waiver from Listing Rule 7.1 to facilitate its planned acquisition of Canadian-listed Electrum Discovery Corp. via a court-approved plan of arrangement under British Columbia corporate law. The waiver allows MinRex to issue shares to Electrum securityholders as consideration for the merger without requiring separate MinRex shareholder approval or using up its placement capacity, provided the deal does not constitute a reverse takeover, thereby reducing transaction conditionality, cost and timeframe and aligning the treatment of this foreign scheme with that of an equivalent Australian scheme of arrangement.

MinRex Highlights New Geophysical Targets at Serbian Timok East Ahead of Electrum Merger
Jan 21, 2026

MinRex Resources reported that Electrum Discovery’s second-phase Audio-Magnetotelluric geophysical survey over the western portion of the Timok East Copper-Gold Project in Serbia has identified two high-conductivity zones at depths of roughly 250–550 metres, interpreted as compelling concealed porphyry-epithermal style targets beneath limestone and volcanic cover. The new AMT data, integrated into a 3D resistivity model and supported by age-dating that ties local andesites to the Timok Magmatic Complex, significantly strengthens the geological model at Timok East and underscores the strategic rationale for MinRex’s planned merger with Electrum, which is expected to accelerate exploration across Serbian copper-gold assets and enhance MinRex’s positioning as a well-capitalised explorer in a prolific copper-gold belt.

Jan 5, 2026

MinRex Resources has agreed to merge with TSX-V listed Electrum Discovery Corp. in a roughly A$28 million all-share merger of equals that will create a well-capitalised gold-copper exploration group focused on Serbia and Australia.
