Defense Metals (TSXV:DEFN)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Defense Metals Corp. is involved in the acquisition, exploration, development, and evaluation of mineral properties in Canada with a market capitalization of CA$26.02 million.

Operations: Defense Metals Corp. currently does not report any revenue segments.

Market Cap: CA$26.02M

Defense Metals Corp., with a market capitalization of CA$26.02 million, remains pre-revenue and unprofitable, with losses widening over the past five years. Despite this, recent strategic moves include a Memorandum of Understanding with the Saskatchewan Research Council to bolster Canada's rare earth supply chain and a private placement to raise capital. The appointment of Mark Tory as CEO is significant given his extensive experience in rare earths development. However, short-term liabilities exceed assets by CA$3.2 million, highlighting financial challenges despite raising additional funds recently to extend its cash runway beyond three months.
