What it means for a shareholder
10,000 new shares at A$0.001 to raise about A$10. That's 0.00116% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 0.00116% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (1,000,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.116% to 0.116% of the company. To keep it you'd need 12 more shares - about A$0 at the issue price.
Corrects the placement size: firm commitments are A$350,000 (350M shares at A$0.001), not A$300,000, with 205M shares under existing placement capacity. No other terms change.

JVU-5 began production at 25 barrels of oil and 74 of water per day over its first seven days, similar to early JVU-6 rates and expected to decline. JVU-6 now produces 18 barrels a day. The next well, JVU-4, is planned for Q1 2026.
Thomson Naude, a former Carnarvon Energy CFO, joined as non-executive director. Jason Peterson resigned as a director but stays as corporate adviser via CPS Capital Group.
September 2025 quarter revenue was A$459k (US$298k), with production down to 69 boepd from 73. The Varn farm-out was completed (US$112k received), leaving a 70% interest, and JVU-5 was drilled after quarter end. Cash figures are truncated.
JVU-5 reached 4,877ft on 19 October; logging showed oil and gas shows in the upper and lower Fry sands, in line with expectations and consistent with JVU-6. Completion comes next, then the JVU-4 injector in Q1 2026.
Drilling began on 7 October on the JVU-5 production well, the second producer in the Varn waterflood and first well under the new joint venture. Target depth is 4,900ft, with about five drilling days expected.
Winchester farmed out 30% of the Varn waterflood to a US investor group led by Production Lending, for US$112k upfront and 40% of further costs. Total cost is about US$5.6M, with the group committing about US$2.4M. This resolves the unfunded-waterflood thread; Winchester keeps 70% and operates.

31 July 2025director officer appointment● NeutralMajor
Jason Peterson (CPS Capital Group) and David Wheeler were appointed non-executive directors, restoring the three-director minimum. The company is still taking advice on the earlier 249D requisition notices.
Legal advice says McGoldrick's resignation was ineffective because the company would otherwise have no director, so he remains sole director with full powers. He will work with ASX and lawyers to restore compliance.
