Philip O'Quigley, CEO of Falcon commented:
'
We look forward to updating the market on the SS-2H ST1 IP30 flow test results as soon as they become available.
We are extremely encouraged by the read-through valuation on Falcon's net 1 million acres from the sale of acreage by Tamboran to DWE and we welcome the completion of the checkerboard where Falcon is uniquely placed as being the only company with an interest in each of the checkerboard pieces.
Reducing our participation in the next three wells has an insignificant impact on our overall net acres in the Beetaloo which remains at circa 1 million acres and our interest across the wider acreage remains at 22.5%. This demonstrates the optionality and financial engineering afforded by the drilling and spacing units, which enable Falcon to strategically and efficiently deploy its capital. This reduction in our participation in the next three wells significantly reduces our 2025 capital expenditure whilst at the same time leaving us very well positioned to capture the overall success of the Beetaloo.
Lastly, we look forward to working with DWE as an additional operator in the Beetaloo. '
Ends.

Technology One (ASX:TNE) Might Be Having Difficulty Using Its Capital Effectively
To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? One common approach is to try and find a company with returns on capital employed (ROCE) that are increasing, in conjunction with a growing amount of capital employed. Put simply, these types of businesses are compounding machines, meaning they are continually reinvesting their earnings at ever-higher rates of return. Having said that, while the ROCE is currently high for Technology One (ASX:TNE), we aren't jumping out of our chairs because returns are decreasing. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE) If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. To calculate this metric for Technology One, this is the formula: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.35 = AU$166m ÷ (AU$744m - AU$273m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to March 2025). Therefore, Technology One has an ROCE of 35%. That's a fantastic return and not only that, it outpaces the average of 14% earned by companies in a similar industry. See our latest analysis for Technology One In the above chart we have measured Technology One's prior ROCE against its prior performance, but the future is arguably more important. If you'd like to see what analysts are forecasting going forward, you should check out our free analyst report for Technology One . What Can We Tell From Technology One's ROCE Trend? When we looked at the ROCE trend at Technology One, we didn't gain much confidence. To be more specific, while the ROCE is still high, it's fallen from 58% where it was five years ago. Although, given both revenue and the amount of assets employed in the business have increased, it could suggest the company is investing in growth, and the extra capital has led to a short-term reduction in ROCE. If these investments prove successful, this can bode very well for long term stock performance. On a side note, Technology One has done well to pay down its current liabilities to 37% of total assets. That could partly explain why the ROCE has dropped. Effectively this means their suppliers or short-term creditors are funding less of the business, which reduces some elements of risk. Some would claim this reduces the business' efficiency at generating ROCE since it is now funding more of the operations with its own money. What We Can Learn From Technology One's ROCE While returns have fallen for Technology One in recent times, we're encouraged to see that sales are growing and that the business is reinvesting in its operations. And the stock has done incredibly well with a 394% return over the last five years, so long term investors are no doubt ecstatic with that result. So while the underlying trends could already be accounted for by investors, we still think this stock is worth looking into further. If you're still interested in Technology One it's worth checking out our to see if it's trading at an attractive price in other respects. Technology One is not the only stock earning high returns.

Yancoal Australia's (ASX:YAL) five-year earnings growth trails the 41% YoY shareholder returns
When you buy a stock there is always a possibility that it could drop 100%. But on the bright side, you can make far more than 100% on a really good stock. Long term Yancoal Australia Ltd (ASX:YAL) shareholders would be well aware of this, since the stock is up 216% in five years. It's also good to see the share price up 31% over the last quarter. Since the stock has added AU$871m to its market cap in the past week alone, let's see if underlying performance has been driving long-term returns. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. Over half a decade, Yancoal Australia managed to grow its earnings per share at 11% a year. This EPS growth is slower than the share price growth of 26% per year, over the same period. This suggests that market participants hold the company in higher regard, these days. And that's hardly shocking given the track record of growth. The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). We consider it positive that insiders have made significant purchases in the last year. Having said that, most people consider earnings and revenue growth trends to be a more meaningful guide to the business. It might be well worthwhile taking a look at our free report on Yancoal Australia's earnings, revenue and cash flow. What About Dividends? When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. As it happens, Yancoal Australia's TSR for the last 5 years was 449%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! A Different Perspective Yancoal Australia provided a TSR of 4.4% over the last twelve months. But that was short of the market average. It's probably a good sign that the company has an even better long term track record, having provided shareholders with an annual TSR of 41% over five years. It's quite possible the business continues to execute with prowess, even as the share price gains are slowing. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important. Take risks, for example - Yancoal Australia has 2 warning signs (and 1 which is potentially serious) we think you should know about. Yancoal Australia is not the only stock that insiders are buying. For those who like to find lesser know companies this free list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket.

DIVIDEND ALERT! Dow Inc. (DOW) Snaps 3-Day Gains, Falls 17.4%
We recently published . Dow Inc. (NYSE:DOW) is one of the worst-performing stocks on Thursday. Dow Inc. snapped a three-day winning streak on Thursday, dropping 17.45 percent to close at $25.07 apiece as investor sentiment was dampened by a dismal earnings performance in the second quarter of the year. In its earnings release, Dow Inc. (NYSE:DOW) swung to a net loss of $801 million from a $458 million net income in the same period last year. It also posted a six-month net loss of $1.09 billion, reversing a $996 million net income in the same period last year. Net sales similarly declined by 7 percent to $10.1 billion in the second quarter, and by 5 percent to $20.5 billion from $21.68 billion year-on-year. Further dampening sentiment was the company's 50-percent drop in dividend per share, now to 35 cents from 70 cents previously. 'We are aligning the payout size to provide additional financial flexibility. Doing so ensures Dow's ability to prioritize the highest return-generating opportunities, while maintaining a competitive dividend,' said Dow Inc. (NYSE:DOW) Chairman and CEO Jim Fitterling. While we acknowledge the potential of DOW as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
