Price Target:
AU$1.00
▼(-0.99% Downside)
The score is held back most by weak financial performance—zero revenue in FY2025, continued losses, and material cash burn—partially cushioned by very low leverage. Technicals are supportive with price above key moving averages and positive MACD, but overbought RSI/Stoch readings add near-term risk. Valuation is not supportive due to the loss-making profile and no dividend yield.
Positive Factors
Low leverage / strong balance sheet
Very low debt versus equity gives the company durable financial flexibility: it reduces refinancing and interest-rate risk, provides a buffer to fund operations or restart production, and lowers likelihood of solvency stress while development or permitting timelines play out.
Core US ISR asset (Lance Projects)
Owning the Lance Projects in Wyoming with established ISR capability situates the company in a jurisdictionally stable, resource-rich basin. This structural positioning supports long-term access to North American fuel-cycle customers and preserves optionality to scale production as market conditions normalise.
Integrated production-to-sales model
Control over extraction, processing and sales creates a vertical model that can capture margin across the value chain once volumes resume. Long-term, this integration supports contract negotiation, product quality control and stable delivery capabilities to fuel-cycle customers.
Negative Factors
Zero revenue in FY2025
Reporting zero revenue in the most recent fiscal year is a durable red flag: it indicates either halted sales or production issues. Without recurring revenue the company cannot self-fund operations, increasing dependency on external financing and raising execution risk over the medium term.
Negative operating and free cash flow
Persistent negative operating and free cash flow erodes liquidity and limits ability to invest in wellfield work, processing or remediation. Over months this forces reliance on capital markets, heightens dilution risk, and constrains the company's capacity to restore sustainable production.
Ongoing losses risk equity erosion
Sustained net losses lower shareholders' equity and weaken the balance sheet buffer. Over the medium term this reduces funding flexibility, may trigger covenant or permitting pressures, and increases probability of asset sales or equity dilution to sustain operations.

Peninsula Energy Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company DescriptionPeninsula Energy Limited, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the exploration, development, and mining of uranium deposits in the United States. Its flagship project is its 100% owned Lance uranium project located in Wyoming. The company was formerly known as Peninsula Minerals Limited and changed its name to Peninsula Energy Limited in November 2010. Peninsula Energy Limited was incorporated in 1993 and is based in Subiaco, Australia.
How the Company Makes MoneyPeninsula Energy makes money through the extraction and sale of uranium from its mining operations. The company generates revenue by producing uranium oxide concentrate (U3O8) and selling it to utilities and other entities involved in nuclear energy production. Key revenue streams include long-term supply contracts and spot market sales of uranium. The company's earnings are influenced by factors such as uranium market prices, production efficiency, and operational costs. Strategic partnerships and alliances with other industry players also play a role in supporting its revenue generation and growth.

Peninsula Energy Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Overall fundamentals are weak despite a strong balance sheet. Revenue deteriorated sharply to zero in FY2025 and losses persisted across all periods, while cash flow quality is poor with negative operating cash flow and deep negative free cash flow in FY2025. The main offsetting positive is negligible debt and a relatively sizable equity base, which lowers balance-sheet risk.
Income Statement
18
Very Negative
Revenue has been highly volatile and recently deteriorated sharply, falling to zero in FY2025 after strong levels in FY2023–FY2024. Profitability remains weak: the company has reported net losses every year provided, with FY2025 showing a large negative gross profit, indicating costs outweighed any revenue base. While FY2023 losses were comparatively smaller, the overall trajectory shows inconsistent scale and no sustained path to positive operating earnings.
Balance Sheet
76
Positive
The balance sheet is a relative strength: total debt is negligible versus equity across all periods, implying very low leverage and limited balance-sheet financial risk. Equity is sizable and has generally grown versus earlier years (though it declined from FY2024 to FY2025), providing a buffer to fund operations. The key weakness is persistent negative returns on equity driven by ongoing losses, which can erode the equity base over time if not reversed.
Cash Flow
24
Negative
Cash generation is inconsistent and recently pressured. Operating cash flow swung between positive and negative, turning negative again in FY2025, which reduces near-term flexibility. Free cash flow is predominantly negative and was deeply negative in FY2025, signaling significant cash burn; although free cash flow growth was positive in FY2025, the absolute level remained materially weak. Overall, cash flow performance does not yet show stable self-funding operations.

Peninsula Advances Lance Ramp-Up as Mine Unit 4 Outperforms and Production Guidance Affirmed
Jan 21, 2026

Peninsula Energy has advanced the operational ramp-up at its Lance Uranium Project, with acidification now underway at a second header house in Mine Unit 4 (MU-4) and performance at the first header house exceeding expectations on flow rates and pH reduction. Revised wellfield designs, faster development of all six header houses in MU-4, and continued commissioning progress at the central processing plant are expected to offset weaker production from Mine Unit 3 and keep the company on track to meet its 2026 uranium production guidance of 0.4–0.5 million pounds, underscoring MU-4’s strategic role in the production reset and its leverage to a more supportive US uranium policy backdrop.

Soul Pattinson Ceases to Be Substantial Holder in Peninsula Energy
Dec 31, 2025

Washington H. Soul Pattinson and Company Limited and its subsidiaries have notified Peninsula Energy that they have ceased to be a substantial holder in the company as of 29 December 2025, following changes in relevant interests in Peninsula’s voting securities since their previous notice earlier in December. The move signals a reduction in exposure by a prominent institutional investor, which may influence Peninsula Energy’s shareholder base composition and could affect perceptions of institutional support and liquidity in the stock, although Soul Pattinson’s direct relevant interest in the related entity remains unchanged from mid-2025 levels.

Peninsula Advances Key Mine Unit at Lance to Underpin 2026 Uranium Ramp-Up
Dec 22, 2025

Peninsula Energy has achieved a key operational milestone at its Lance Uranium Project in Wyoming, with Header House 14 in Mine Unit 4 (MU-4) entering the acidification stage after receiving injection approval from Wyoming’s environmental regulator. Acidification at this header house is expected to run for about three months before uranium-bearing fluids are sent to the central processing plant (CPP), while construction and upcoming acidification of additional header houses 16 and 15 underpin MU-4’s role in delivering about 60% of the company’s uranium production forecast for 2026 and 2027. The company has optimised its wellfield design to accelerate acidification and boost recovery rates, with pump tests in MU-4 indicating stronger flows than in the earlier mine unit and supporting its production reset plan. Concurrently, Peninsula is advancing commissioning and debottlenecking at the CPP, including installing a fibre‑reinforced plastic piping system and enhancing water purification to improve product quality, leaving the company confident it can meet its 2026 production guidance of 0.4–0.5 million pounds of uranium and strengthen its position as a long-term U.S. uranium producer.
