Forward supply

Every dated event on record that could add securities to the register — option expiries to their stated dates and proposed issues over the next 18 months, on one timeline.

22k in the money, expiring in the window
Out-of-the-money options are excluded — at today’s price they expire rather than convert. So is condition-triggered supply, which has no expiry and no price, and convertibles that convert on their own terms rather than on a date.

Placement capacity

How much stock a company can place without asking holders. Listing Rule 7.1 allows 15% of ordinary securities in any 12 months, and every Appendix 3B states how much of it an issue uses.

About 69% of the 15% placement capacity left — about 31% used by Appendix 3B filings in the last 12 months (estimate, as at 2026-09-12). The company has also placed under the additional 10% (Listing Rule 7.1A), which is not counted in this figure. Holder-approved issues and any later ratification are not deducted, so the true headroom can be higher.

What this supply is, and what converts it
  • Price-triggered10.9M · 0.9% of shares
    Options and warrants — they convert when the share price clears their exercise price.
  • Condition-triggered61.4M · 4.9% of shares
    Performance and incentive rights — they convert when a hurdle is met, not at a price, and can lapse to nothing.

Exercise price on record: 10.9M priced (of which 7.9M in the money), 61.4M where the filing never states one. A security with no exercise price is never counted in the money — nothing is paid to convert it, so there is no price for it to be above.

Each figure is the filing’s own count of securities, not a share count — a 2A never states what one security converts into.

At $0.19 today, 7.9M securities are in the money (0.6% of shares on issue) — a floor, because an exercise price is on record for only 15.0% of this supply. No more priced supply until 1.25× today’s price, which takes it to 9.7M (0.8% of shares).

  • Priced supply in the money at the price on the axis — the curve, and the only thing on it. Ten prices, sampled: between two of them the true figure lies between the two.
  • 61.4M (85.0% of the supply above) states no exercise price at all. It cannot be called in or out of the money at any price, which is why it is hatched rather than plotted.

“Nil” is a stated nil exercise price: nothing is paid to convert. An em dash means the filing names no exercise price at all. Security is read from the filing’s own class description; an em dash there means the description is not one this table labels. One row is one security class, at the number stated in the most recent quotation application that restated it — linked, and dated, in the last column.

A condition-triggered class has no exercise price and usually no expiry: what it vests on is set by a shareholder resolution, not by the register. Where the company lodged a notice of meeting before the class first appears here, it is linked as “Meeting” — that is where terms of this kind are put to shareholders. It is not confirmation that the document sets this class’s conditions, and no link appears where there is no such filing.
