Highlights:
Dimerix gains on milestone-rich licensing agreement
Newmont lifts after delivering strong quarterly performance
Titomic jumps following a successful capital raise
As the broader S&P/ASX 200 index trades lower in the afternoon session, a few individual stocks are bucking the trend and recording notable intraday gains. Despite the overall weakness in the benchmark, companies such as Dimerix, Newmont, Regal Partners, and Titomic have drawn investor attention due to fresh operational updates and strategic developments.
Dimerix lifts after licensing deal success
Biopharmaceutical company Dimerix (ASX:DXB) has seen its share price edge higher after publishing its latest quarterly performance update. The company reported strong cash inflows during the period, primarily driven by the signing of a significant license agreement for its DMX-200 candidate with a US-based pharmaceutical partner.
Under the terms of this agreement, Dimerix stands to gain a substantial sum through various milestone-linked payments as well as ongoing royalties. The deal marks a key step in the company’s strategy to commercialise its lead asset internationally and highlights its ongoing momentum in the biotech space.
Newmont rallies on robust quarterly performance
Gold producer Newmont Corporation (ASX:NEM) saw strength in its share price after the release of its second-quarter results. The company reported solid earnings and reaffirmed its full-year guidance for the current financial year.
Operationally, Newmont highlighted a strong gold production output across its portfolio, resulting in record-level quarterly cash generation. The update reflects stability in its mining operations and supports confidence in its long-term growth strategy. As a constituent of the FTSE 20, its performance holds particular relevance to investors seeking large-cap exposure to the gold sector.
Regal Partners climbs on growing asset base
Investment manager Regal Partners (ASX:RPL) advanced after reporting a positive quarterly update on its funds under management (FUM). The company posted a healthy rise in its total FUM at the end of June, supported by continued client inflows and favourable investment performance across its range of strategies.
The expansion in FUM suggests growing investor confidence in Regal’s diversified platform and signals strength in the broader asset management space, despite ongoing market uncertainties.
Titomic rises on funding boost
Advanced manufacturing company Titomic (ASX:TTT) experienced gains after revealing the successful completion of a capital raise through a share placement to both new and existing investors. The funds raised are intended to support its global expansion and help the business pursue strategic initiatives within the high-tech manufacturing sector.
The pricing of the new shares was close to the last traded level, reflecting a modest discount and suggesting strong investor support. The company plans to channel these resources into accelerating its commercial and operational growth across core markets.
