Revenue jumps to $11.2 million from $5.0 million. Administrative expenses climb to $9.9 million from $5.3 million. ‘Operationally, the company has prioritised improving production consistency, optimising recovery rates, and enhancing overall efficiency at Homase.

While risks inherent in mining operations remain, the board is confident that the actions taken during the year and subsequent period position the company for improved operational performance and more importantly, building on a historic established [Joint Ore Reserves Committee] resource for long-term value creation.’ ---------- Chill Brands Group PLC - London-based distributor of fast-moving consumer products such as tobacco alternatives and functional beverages for sale via convenience stores - Chill Brands reports higher revenue but a wider loss in the six months to March 31.

Cost of sales are up sharply to £1.0 million from £161,092. ‘We delivered Chill Connect’s strongest period of revenue growth to date in the first half, reflecting clear and increasing demand from both retailers and brand partners for our distribution proposition. As planned, we invested ahead of revenue, with costs reflecting the build-out of a national operating platform, including a UK-wide field sales team and enhanced promotional and activation capabilities. This investment positions us to better serve existing partners, improve retention, and accelerate new client acquisition, although it has resulted in a period where cost growth has outpaced revenue,’ Chief Executive Officer Callum Sommerton says. ---------- NYCE International PLC - London-based provider of gaming technologies and services - Pretax loss in 19 months to December 31 widens to £1.1 million, compared to £778,000 in the 12 months to June 30, 2024. During the period, NYCE changed its financial, year-end date, as well as its name. It was formerly called ChallengerX PLC before adopting the current name after a reverse acquisition. ‘In a little over a year, NYCE has moved from a shell seeking a transaction to an operating, revenue-generating B2B gaming group with a clear strategy, an established brand and a growing international footprint,’ NYCE adds. ---------- VVV Sports Ltd - British Virgin Islands-based sports, media and entertainment company - Pretax loss in 2025 widens to £2.3 million from £291,000 in 2025. No revenue is generated in either year. VVV labels 2025 a ‘defining year’. ‘Whilst our financial results reflect a business continuing to invest for growth, they tell only part of the story. During the year, we strengthened the foundations of what we believe can become a significant international sports business, focused on some of the fastest-growing participation sports in the world. This included the acquisition of the entire share capital of R3 Sport Ltd and the investment in Topseries our Pickleball business,’ it explains. ‘The global sports industry is undergoing structural change. Consumers increasingly seek healthier lifestyles, greater social interaction and premium sporting experiences. Padel, pickleball and the wider racket sports market continue to benefit from these long-term trends, creating substantial opportunities for businesses with strong brands, innovative products and scalable international distribution.’ ---------- Zanaga Iron Ore Co Ltd - iron ore exploration and development company which owns the Zanaga asset in the Republic of Congo - Pretax loss in 2025 widens to $7.1 million from $2.3 million, on rising general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses total $7.1 million, rising from $2.3 million. No revenue is reported in either year. ‘This was a transformational period for ZIOC and the Zanaga project.

In December, the firm said it has agreed to sell its West Kytlim mining operations in the Urals to a Russian company for $9 million, saying the decision reduces the risk the mine will be nationalised by Russia without compensation in response to the freeze of Russian assets in Europe. Eurasia says on Tuesday: ‘Our strategy remains focused on maximising shareholder value through the potential disposal of the group’s Russian assets, including the operating West Kytlim mine, the Monchetundra mining licence, the NKT brownfield project and the group’s entitlement to the Nyud brownfield project in the Arctic. The board remains committed to pursuing opportunities that may facilitate the achievement of this objective, although there can be no assurance that any transaction will be concluded.’ ---------- Switch Metals PLC - mining explorer focused on developing battery and technology metals mines in the Ivory Coast - Pretax loss in 2025 widens to £2.2 million from £830,507 in 2025. No revenue is reported for either year. An £726,650 impairment of exploration and evaluation assets hits its bottom line. ‘The past year has been transformational for Switch Metals as we successfully completed our AIM listing, advanced exploration across our Issia project and laid the foundations for future growth. Since year end, we have continued to build momentum with the discovery of the Kabore spodumene-bearing pegmatite, progress towards our maiden JORC mineral resource estimate and the commencement of our first drill programme. With a strengthened balance sheet and multiple value catalysts ahead, we remain focused on unlocking the significant tantalum and lithium potential of our Cote d’Ivoire portfolio,’ Chief Executive Officer Karl Akueson says. ---------- Bezant Resources PLC - copper and gold exploration company with assets in Namibia and Zambia, plus a manganese project in Botswana - Bezant swings to a pretax profit of £2.0 million in 2025, from a loss of £1.0 million.

We have secured a very interesting exploration project in the Eastern Foreland of Zambia and have identified targets that are ready for drilling. We look forward to doing our first reconnaissance drilling towards the end of the dry season.’ ---------- Wishbone Gold PLC - miner with projects in Western Australia - Reports pretax loss of £1.2 million for 2025, narrowing from £1.5 million in 2024. No revenue is reported, but it posts £506,088 in other income, rising from £116,510. ‘Wishbone emerging from this period of restructuring is stronger, more focused, and better capitalized than at any point in our history.
