▲(56.10% Upside)
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, recurring losses, and historically negative operating/free cash flow), partly offset by a supportive balance sheet and improving 2025 cash burn. Technicals are constructive with strong trend/momentum, but overbought signals temper the outlook. Valuation provides limited support given loss-making earnings and no dividend.

How the Company Makes Money

Conroy Gold and Natural Resources Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Income and cash flow quality are weak: no reported revenue (2020–2025), recurring operating losses with a sizable 2025 net loss, and consistently negative operating and free cash flow (despite a sharp reduction in 2025 cash burn vs. 2024). The balance sheet is a relative support with generally low leverage and a sizable equity base, but returns remain weak/negative.
Income Statement
18
Very Negative
The company reports no revenue across the period provided (2020–2025 annual), which limits evidence of operating scale. Profitability is weak and volatile: operating profit is negative in most years, and 2025 shows a sizable net loss (about -0.53m) versus near break-even in 2024 and losses again in 2023 and 2020. While there were isolated profitable years (2021–2022 net income positive), the overall trajectory reflects an early-stage or non-producing profile with recurring losses and limited visibility on sustainable earnings.
Balance Sheet
64
Positive
The balance sheet looks conservatively levered overall, with debt generally low relative to equity (debt-to-equity ~0.01 in 2025 and ~0.01–0.03 in 2020–2022), although leverage spiked in 2024 (debt-to-equity ~0.22) before dropping again in 2025. Equity remains sizable (~17.3m in 2025) and assets are stable (~24.9m in 2025), providing a cushion. The key weakness is returns: profitability has not been consistent, leading to weak/negative return on equity in recent years.
Cash Flow
22
Negative
Cash generation is a clear pressure point. Operating cash flow is negative in every year shown, indicating the core business is consuming cash rather than funding itself. Free cash flow is also consistently negative, with a particularly large outflow in 2024 (about -2.82m) before improving materially in 2025 (about -0.03m), suggesting tighter cash control or lower spending—though still not sustainably positive. Overall, the company appears reliant on external funding or balance-sheet resources to support ongoing operations.
