Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from mineral exploration activities, amounting to A$0.01 million.

Market Cap: A$34.96M

Investigator Resources Limited, with a market cap of A$34.96 million, is pre-revenue and primarily focused on mineral exploration in Australia. Despite being unprofitable, the company has reduced its losses by 21.1% annually over the past five years and remains debt-free with sufficient short-term assets to cover liabilities. However, it faces challenges such as shareholder dilution and high share price volatility. The management team is experienced, which could be beneficial for navigating financial constraints like a limited cash runway under one year if free cash flow remains stable at current levels.
