    FML – March 2026 Quarter (JUST RELEASED)

    Gold

    • Gold sold:~19,2xx oz(just under 20k oz)
    • Gold poured: slightly higher (inventory movement timing)

    So:

    • Flat to slightly up vs Dec quarter

    Cash

    • Cash at bank:~$184M

    Previous Quarter (Dec 2025)

    • Gold sold:17,813 oz
    • Cash:~$159.7M

    ⚖️ DIRECT COMPARISON

    1Gold sold17.8k oz~19.2k oz⬆️ modest
    2Cash$159.7M~$184M⬆️ + ~$24M

    What actually matters (this is the read-through)

    1. Production = steady (not a growth story)

    • Still sitting:
      • ~18–20k oz per quarter
    • No breakout yet into:
      • 25k+
      • or scale phase

    This confirms:
    they are NOT ramping aggressively

    2. Cash = still surging

      • ~$24M this quarter
    • On top of + ~$45M last quarter

    That’s:

    • ~$70M added in 2 quarters

    This is elite cash generation for a sub-100koz producer

    3. Margins are doing all the work

    Given:

    • AUD gold ~$5,800–$6,300
    • Production stable

    This implies:

    • very strong AISC margin
    • probably still ~$2,000–$2,500 cost base

    Bottom line (no fluff)

    • Ounces: steady → ~19k oz
    • Cash: exploding → now ~$184M
    • Story: unchanged, but strengthening

    This is not a growth rerate yet
    It’s a cash accumulation machine

    ⚠️ The important subtle shift

    What has changed with this release:

    • They are now approaching:
      • ~$200M cash
    • At current burn/capex:
      • they’ll hit that soon

    That puts pressure on:

    • capital allocation decisions
      • dividends?
      • expansion?
      • acquisition?

    My straight read (investor lens)

    You now have:

    • Small producer
    • Massive cash build
    • No debt
    • Gina backing (implicit floor)

    That combination usually leads to:

    1. rerate when capital deployed
    2. OR market frustration if they sit on cash
