Taylor Maritime (LON:TMI) Will Be Hoping To Turn Its Returns On Capital Around
When it comes to investing, there are some useful financial metrics that can warn us when a business is potentially in trouble. A business that's potentially in decline often shows two trends, a return on capital employed (ROCE) that's declining, and a base of capital employed that's also declining. This indicates the company is producing less profit from its investments and its total assets are decreasing. On that note, looking into Taylor Maritime (LON:TMI), we weren't too upbeat about how things were going. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. For those who don't know, ROCE is a measure of a company's yearly pre-tax profit (its return), relative to the capital employed in the business. Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Taylor Maritime: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.17 = US$82m ÷ (US$489m - US$2.6m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2024). Therefore, Taylor Maritime has an ROCE of 17%. In absolute terms, that's a satisfactory return, but compared to the Shipping industry average of 9.5% it's much better. Check out our latest analysis for Taylor Maritime Historical performance is a great place to start when researching a stock so above you can see the gauge for Taylor Maritime's ROCE against it's prior returns. If you'd like to look at how Taylor Maritime has performed in the past in other metrics, you can view this free graph of Taylor Maritime's past earnings, revenue and cash flow. We are a bit worried about the trend of returns on capital at Taylor Maritime. Unfortunately the returns on capital have diminished from the 24% that they were earning two years ago. On top of that, it's worth noting that the amount of capital employed within the business has remained relatively steady. Companies that exhibit these attributes tend to not be shrinking, but they can be mature and facing pressure on their margins from competition. So because these trends aren't typically conducive to creating a multi-bagger, we wouldn't hold our breath on Taylor Maritime becoming one if things continue as they have. In the end, the trend of lower returns on the same amount of capital isn't typically an indication that we're looking at a growth stock. And long term shareholders have watched their investments stay flat over the last three years. Unless there is a shift to a more positive trajectory in these metrics, we would look elsewhere. One more thing to note, we've identified 1 warning sign with Taylor Maritime and understanding this should be part of your investment process.

Guardian Metal Resources PLC Announces Pilot North Tungsten Project Acquired via Staking
Pilot North Tungsten Project Acquired via Staking LONDON, UK / / July 7, 2025 / Guardian Metal Resources plc ('Guardian Metal' or the 'Company')(LON:GMET)(OTCQB:GMTLF), a strategic development and mineral exploration company focused on tungsten in Nevada, USA, is pleased to announce that it has acquired additional mining claims in the Walker Lane Mineral Belt, approximately 15km northwest of the Company's Pilot Mountain Project in Nevada, to form what is to be known as the Pilot North Tungsten Project ("Pilot North" or the "Project"). Guardian Metal is focussed on leading the re-establishment of US domestic tungsten production, centred on Pilot Mountain, which is believed to be the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit in the United States. The Company's projects demonstrate Nevada's exceptional mineral potential and the important role the state can play in the national race to secure a stable, affordable supply of critical resources for the United States of America. The Company has acquired the new Pilot North tungsten and copper Project area through direct mining claim staking of 59 new Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") Lode Claims. The Project was generated by the Company's ongoing regional exploration programme and encapsulates three World War II era tungsten mines.1 Oliver Friesen, CEO of Guardian Metal, commented: "Following the identification of new targets through our regional exploration programme, we moved quickly to stake 100%-owned claims to form the Pilot North Project, which has highly prospective geology and a history of production, and which is located just 15 km from our flagship Pilot Mountain project. "The Company's expert geological consultant will be on site before the end of the month to further evaluate the promising Pilot North prospects and assess their potential to complement the ongoing exploration and development at Pilot Mountain." TECHNICAL SUMMARY 59 BLM Lode Mining Claims directly staked across the Pilot North tungsten-copper (W-Cu) Project area. The new Project encapsulates three historical tungsten mines - Copper Head, Western Metals and Jasper.1 Reconnaissance field work has confirmed skarn mineralisation at the contact of granitic intrusions with limestones of the Luning Formation (i.e. the same geology as the Company's Pilot Mountain project), and historical mines and exploration activities. Initial rock samples are currently awaiting assay, but copper oxide mineralisation is visually confirmed and ultraviolet (UV) light investigation suggests high concentrations of scheelite (Figures 1-3). An expert geological consultant will be onsite within two weeks to perform field assessments and develop exploration strategies for the Project with further news, results and accompanying maps to follow. BACKGROUND The Company's broader regional exploration programme continues to generate tungsten skarn targets for further exploration. After field assessment of the Pilot North targets, the Company immediately acted to stake a total of 59 BLM Lode Mining Claims to form the Pilot North Project. Pilot North is located approximately 15 km northwest of the Company's co-flagship Pilot Mountain project and shares the same road access. The new Project area encapsulates three World War II era tungsten mines - Copper Head, Western Metals and Jasper - and other historically reported tungsten, copper and iron prospects1. The Company believes these prospects represent genetically related tungsten-copper-polymetallic skarn mineralisation at the contacts of granitic intrusions with limestones of the Luning Formation, a similar geological setting to the deposits at Pilot Mountain. Initial reconnaissance field work by the Company's geological team has confirmed and sampled numerous zones of skarn mineralisation across the Project area, confirmed the locations of the historical mines, and noted evidence for historic exploration pits and bulldozer scrapes in several areas across the Project (Figure 1). Outcropping skarns included copper rich zones, and UV light investigations suggests locally high concentration of scheelite (Figures 2 & 3). Initial grab rock samples from the various zones of skarn mineralisation and gossans across the Project are currently undergoing assay at ALS Laboratories in Reno. The Company's expert geological consultant, Dr Lawrence Carter, will be onsite within two weeks to undertake detailed geological mapping and sampling across the Project, and develop strategies to advance exploration as a satellite to the flagship Pilot Mountain project. The Company will further report the findings of this detailed geological field work as well as assay results once available. Maps of the Project will be shared once the Company has finished consolidating claims over this new and exciting Project. MEDIA Figure 1.

Shell Flags Weak Trading Performance in Volatile Second Quarter
Shell Plc said its second-quarter trading results in both gas and oil will be significantly lower than the previous three months, in an indication of how major energy companies have navigated recent market volatility. Oil prices swung wildly in the period, sinking to a four-year low in April as US President Donald Trump unleashed his global trade war and OPEC+ boosted supply, then spiking last month as Israel struck targets in Iran. They have since retreated below $70 a barrel.
