  • Lotus Resources Ltd rose 6.52% to AUD 0.245 as of 11 August 2026.
  • Lotus Resources announced a strategic funding package and balance-sheet reset on 23 July 2026, alongside an operational presentation focused on the Kayelekera uranium project.

Lotus Resources is attempting a reset after one of the sharpest one-year declines in the group. The uranium stock rose 6.52% to AUD 0.245 on 11 August 2026, but the larger question is whether July's funding package can stabilise the Balance Sheet and put the Kayelekera restart back on a credible timetable.
