▼(-22.50% Downside)
Action:ReiteratedDate:01/29/26
The score is primarily held back by poor financial performance, including declining revenue, large losses, and a high-risk balance sheet with negative equity. Technical indicators provide only modest support via short-term improvement, while valuation is constrained by a negative P/E and no dividend data.
Positive Factors
Strong free cash flow growth
A 253.6% rise in free cash flow signals improving cash conversion that can durablely support operations and investment without immediate reliance on equity or debt. Sustained FCF growth improves liquidity runway and reduces refinancing pressure over the next several quarters.
Free cash flow covers net losses
FCF slightly exceeding net losses indicates cash-generation quality despite accounting losses, meaning the business can fund part of its losses from operating cash. That structural cash coverage eases short-term liquidity strain and provides time to address profitability.
Lean operating structure (small headcount)
An extremely small workforce implies a low fixed-cost base and operational flexibility. A lean structure can preserve cash, enable faster decision-making, and makes cost reduction or scaling initiatives more actionable and durable across a 2–6 month horizon.
Negative Factors
Negative shareholders' equity
Negative equity creates a structurally weak balance sheet, producing a negative debt-to-equity metric and limiting access to traditional financing. This elevates default and covenant risk, constrains strategic options, and is a lasting constraint until capital restructuring occurs.
Declining revenue trend
A 6.8% revenue decline reflects weakening top-line momentum that erodes operating leverage and market positioning. If sustained, shrinking sales reduce room to absorb fixed costs and impede margin recovery, posing a multi-month headwind to recovery efforts.
Deep and persistent losses
Severely negative margins indicate structural unprofitability and operational inefficiencies. Persistent losses drain capital and necessitate recurring external funding or asset sales, limiting strategic investments and making profitable scaling difficult without material operational change.

How the Company Makes Moneynull

TZ Limited Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Financials are weak: revenue declined (-6.8%), profitability is deeply negative (net margin -33.8% with negative EBIT/EBITDA margins), and the balance sheet shows negative equity, indicating elevated financial risk. Cash flow has improved via strong free cash flow growth, but operating cash flow remains negative.
Income Statement
40
Negative
TZ Limited's income statement shows significant challenges. The company has experienced declining revenue with a negative growth rate of -6.8% in the most recent year. Profitability metrics are concerning, with a negative net profit margin of -33.8% and negative EBIT and EBITDA margins. These figures indicate operational inefficiencies and a struggle to convert revenue into profit.
Balance Sheet
30
Negative
The balance sheet reveals a precarious financial position. The company has negative stockholders' equity, resulting in a negative debt-to-equity ratio, which is a significant risk factor. The return on equity is positive due to negative equity, but this is misleading as it reflects financial distress rather than profitability. The equity ratio is also negative, highlighting a lack of financial stability.
Cash Flow
45
Neutral
Cash flow analysis shows some improvement, with a positive free cash flow growth rate of 253.6%. However, operating cash flow remains negative, indicating ongoing liquidity challenges. The free cash flow to net income ratio is slightly above 1, suggesting that the company is generating cash relative to its net losses, but overall cash flow health is weak.

TZ Limited plans dual share and option issue to bolster capital base
Mar 12, 2026

TZ Limited has announced a proposed capital raising via the issue of up to 30 million ordinary fully paid shares and 30 million options, all to be quoted on the ASX. The securities are scheduled for issue on March 16, 2026, signalling a fresh injection of equity and potential future capital that may strengthen the company’s balance sheet and provide additional funding flexibility for its strategic plans.

The combined share and option placement is intended to expand TZ Limited’s listed capital base, with the large option component offering investors leveraged exposure to future share price performance. This move could help the company enhance liquidity in its securities, broaden its investor base and support longer-term financing needs, though it may also lead to dilution for existing shareholders if all new securities are taken up and exercised.

TZ Limited seeks trading halt ahead of material capital raising
Mar 10, 2026

TZ Limited has requested an immediate halt to trading in its securities on the Australian Securities Exchange, with the halt to remain in place until no later than the start of normal trading on Friday, 13 March 2026. The company says the move is necessary as it prepares to release details of a material capital raising, and that the halt will help it manage its continuous disclosure obligations while the transaction is finalised.

ASX Compliance has confirmed the trading halt, noting that the suspension will automatically lift once TZ Limited lodges its capital raising announcement or reaches the specified time limit. The action signals that TZ Limited is pursuing a significant funding transaction, with potential implications for its capital structure and existing shareholders once terms of the raising are disclosed.

TZ Limited defends disclosure stance over deferred A$2.75m debt repayment
Mar 10, 2026

TZ Limited has responded to an ASX aware letter concerning the deferral of a A$2.75 million debt repayment owed to financier Causeway Finance, originally due on 31 December 2025 and later pushed into February 2026. The company argued that, given prior disclosures about the size, maturity and refinancing discussions around this obligation, as well as its broader funding constraints, the short extension did not amount to new information that a reasonable person would expect to materially affect its share price.

Management cited a series of earlier announcements detailing its Microsoft-related sales on extended settlement terms, growing borrowings and reliance on Causeway Finance to support operations. TZ said it first became aware on 31 December 2025 that Causeway would extend the repayment and maintains it has acted in good faith and with progressive transparency under continuous disclosure rules, noting that trading in its securities showed no unusual volatility around the deferral period.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:TZL) stock is a Sell with a A$0.04 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on TZ Limited stock, see the AU:TZL Stock Forecast page.

TZ Limited Secures Debt Waiver as It Races to Raise Capital
Feb 26, 2026

TZ Limited has disclosed that it failed to make a scheduled AU$2.75 million debt repayment due on 31 December 2025 and breached a covenant requiring a minimum cash balance of AU$500,000. The company is working with its financier, Causeway Finance, to manage these issues while it pursues a capital raise with strategic and existing investors.

Causeway Finance has granted TZ Limited an interim waiver and extended the repayment deadline to 16 March 2026, requiring AU$1 million by that date and the remaining AU$1.75 million by 30 April 2026. TZ Limited says it is confident it can complete the capital raising and fully meet the AU$2.75 million repayment, a development that will be closely watched by shareholders and creditors given the covenant breach and liquidity pressures.

TZ Limited posts wider half-year loss despite modest revenue growth
Feb 26, 2026

TZ Limited reported a 2.12% increase in revenue to $5.41 million for the half-year ended 31 December 2025, but its adjusted EBITDA loss widened to $1.15 million. The company’s net loss after tax deepened to $1.92 million, and net tangible assets per share deteriorated further into negative territory, underscoring ongoing balance-sheet pressure and the continued absence of dividends for shareholders.

The results highlight that, despite modest top-line growth, the group is facing rising underlying losses as defined by its preferred adjusted EBITDA metric. With no acquisitions, disposals, or dividend reinvestment plans and all foreign operations aligned to IFRS, the update points to operational and capital-structure challenges that may affect investor confidence and limit near-term returns.

TZ Limited updates quarterly cash flow report and outlines path to improved liquidity
Feb 22, 2026

TZ Limited has issued an amended cash flow report for the quarter ended 31 December 2025, correcting and clarifying several items in its previously lodged Appendix 4C. The company now discloses that a post‑quarter receipt of AU$350,000 was contractually due in December but paid in January, and it confirms that its Causeway Finance facility of AU$4.75 million is fully drawn with revised repayment timing, alongside a AU$1.5 million debenture facility from its largest shareholder.

Management states it does not expect current levels of net operating cash outflows to persist, citing an approaching period of strong SaaS subscription inflows, conversion of contracted revenues in installation and commissioning, and increased sales in its Smart Locker and Data Centre Security divisions. Cash flow is expected to improve in the second half of FY26, supported by ongoing cost controls and a potential trade finance or factoring facility that remains under negotiation, which together are intended to smooth the company’s volatile cash generation profile.

TZ Limited Flags Softer First-Half Revenue but Targets Stronger Second Half and Strategic Growth Options
Jan 27, 2026

TZ Limited reported quarterly operating cash outflows of A$790,000 on receipts of A$2.6 million, with the result negatively affected by the late receipt of a large customer payment that arrived just after the 31 December quarter end. First-half FY26 revenue of A$5.5 million came in about 30% below internal expectations, prompting the company to guide full-year revenue towards the lower end of its prior range at around A$17 million, while management moves to accelerate installations and commissioning in the education sector and capitalise on renewed purchasing from major corporate clients. In data centre security, TZ is pursuing sizeable tenders, expanding distribution channels and business development capacity, and finalising a factoring facility to support future Microsoft-related orders and bolster working capital flexibility. The company rolled a A$2.75 million debt repayment to mid-February while it evaluates strategic options, continues to field interest in its US subsidiary Telezygology Inc., and explores additional corporate transactions, all against a backdrop of operational initiatives including a software and hosting review and broader AI adoption aimed at improving efficiency and sharpening its international market strategy.
