### Recapitalisation and reported profit [eqr_finance]

FY2026 · issuer reported · medium materiality

EQR reported FY2026 net profit after tax of A$7.1 million versus a restated A$39.2 million loss in FY2025. The managing director described substantial equity raising and debt conversion, with shares on issue increasing from 2.7 billion to 5.1 billion. This followed a period of liquidity pressure and benefited from higher tungsten prices.

**Relevance:** Financing recovery and dilution are both relevant to management delivery.

## Business failures and setbacks

### Prior mine blasting interruption [brad_masan]

2023–2024 · issuer reported · medium materiality

Masan reported blasting at Nui Phao had stopped since Q2 2023, lowering mined ore volumes and profitability. A 2024 Masan release announced a replacement blasting partnership and expected resumption in March. It names Bradshaw as CEO but does not establish his individual responsibility for the stoppage or independently establish the actual restart.

**Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Bradshaw was named as Masan CEO in the release; personal responsibility and actual restart were not independently established.

**Relevance:** A relevant prior operating setback alongside the company’s stated response.
