Vast Resources plc (LSE:VAST) has repaid $1 million to lenders A&T Investments SARL and Mercuria Energy Trading SA, securing an extension of its loan agreements through the end of 2025. The company plans to use proceeds from forthcoming diamond sales and potential funding arrangements to fully settle the remaining debt, a step that could strengthen its financial footing and improve operational flexibility.
Vast has also published the tender details for an initial 126,677.50-carat parcel of rough stones, spanning both gem-quality and industrial categories. Management intends to sell the higher-grade stones in phases to maximise revenue and enhance shareholder value. This approach is expected to support stronger cash generation and bolster the company’s competitive positioning.
Vast Resources’ outlook remains constrained by ongoing financial difficulties, including sustained operating losses and negative equity. However, recent positive corporate developments and select supportive technical indicators offer some scope for strategic improvement. Valuation challenges persist due to continued negative profitability.
