In its recently-released annual report, Emu reported $22,921 in revenue for the year ending June 30, 2022, down from $52,719 in the prior corresponding period.

The company reported a loss after income tax of $3.32 million, down from $5.88 million from the same time last year.

Emu last tapped investors for cash in November 2021 when it undertook a $2 million placement to sophisticated and professional investors.

The funds were raised through the issue of around 83.3 million fully-paid ordinary shares at a price of 2.5 cents each.

Emu stated it would use the money to support exploration activities, drilling, project acquisitions and working capital.
