The company also detailed total realised consideration of AUD 15.7 million after the subsequent sale of shares received as part of the Bowdens royalty transaction.

Projects and Operating Milestones

The Weeks royalty is linked to offshore Gippsland Basin petroleum production. During the period, operating arrangements changed and five additional wells were completed at the existing Marlin B complex. Fitzroy’s entitlement is defined contractually as a share of an underlying royalty rather than an Equity interest in all producing infrastructure. The next payment relating to the September quarter was expected during December 2026. Actual future receipts depend on royalty terms and the underlying production and sales results. the company also held royalty interests in Western Australian petroleum tenements.

Reported Financial and Corporate Figures

A separate corporate development involved the sale of Fitzroy’s Bowdens silver royalty. The September transaction initially included AUD 10 million in cash and ordinary shares in the project owner. Following subsequent disposal of those shares, Fitzroy reported total realised consideration of AUD 15.7 million, comprising AUD 10 million cash and approximately AUD 5.7 million realised from the share sale. The distinction between the initial transaction consideration and the final realised proceeds matters for accurately describing the completed arrangement. the company indicated it would provide a later update concerning the use of surplus proceeds.

Technical Programme and Outstanding Work

Fitzroy also described an outstanding matter associated with a royalty over the Snowy River gold project in New Zealand. the company reported receipt of AUD 12,265,134 in March 2026 in connection with an asserted royalty buyout, with the amount placed in escrow. Legal proceedings were commenced in New Zealand concerning the relevant rights. In Western Australia, the company monitored developments at the Rafael gas project, including reserve reporting and regulatory submissions. These interests have different counterparties, payment mechanics and stages of project development.

The report separated receipts already received from payments expected in subsequent periods. Its Gippsland royalty relates to prior-quarter production and is therefore generally received with a delay. The Bowdens sale was completed and additional cash was realised when the associated equity consideration was subsequently disposed of. In contrast, the Snowy River funds remained In Escrow amid legal proceedings. These different cash and contractual statuses are important when describing the company’s royalty arrangements. Fitzroy also identified changes in Commodity prices and exchange rates as factors that can affect the value of future royalty receipts.
