Description of the PEA

The PEA outlines a conceptual development scenario for the Adanac Project based on the updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") (see "Mineral Resources" below), incorporating conventional open-pit mining and onsite molybdenum recovery through a 30,000 tpd processing facility.

The PEA was prepared by Tetra Tech Canada Inc. ("Tetra Tech") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101").

This PEA is preliminary in nature. It includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

The NI 43-101 Technical Report supporting the PEA will be filed on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company's website within 45 days of this news release.

Project Overview

The 100%-owned Adanac Molybdenum Project is located approximately 35 km northeast of Atlin, British Columbia by road, within the traditional territory of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation, and forms part of EraNova's district-scale Ruby Creek Property, which also hosts the Company's Atlin Discovery Project.

Adanac is a large-scale primary molybdenum development project that has benefited from decades of exploration, engineering and development. Since its discovery in the late 1960s, multiple operators have advanced the Project through more than 73,000 metres of drilling, underground bulk sampling, feasibility studies, environmental assessment and the commencement of mine construction before development was suspended following the 2008 global financial crisis.

Today, the Project benefits from established road access, more than C$100 million in historical infrastructure investment and a previously permitted mine development concept, providing an advanced development foundation compared with a typical greenfield project.

Infrastructure supporting the Project includes proximity to the community of Atlin, British Columbia (population approximately 500), a registered public-use airport (CYSQ) supporting charter and general aviation, access to the Port of Skagway, Alaska (approximately 275 km), and the proposed BC-Yukon Grid Connect, a cross-border transmission initiative intended to strengthen regional power infrastructure and support future economic development. Together, these attributes position Adanac as a more advanced development opportunity than a typical greenfield project and provide a strong foundation for the next stage of engineering.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.Mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.02% Mo, constrained within a conceptual open-pit shell.Mineral resources are reported based on a long-term molybdenum price of US$23/lb Mo.Classification is consistent with the 2014 CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves.All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate; numbers may not add due to rounding.The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.Mining Method

The Adanac Molybdenum Project is planned to be developed using conventional open-pit mining methods, including drilling, blasting, loading, and hauling with large-scale mining equipment. Material will be drilled and blasted, then loaded into diesel-powered haul trucks using a fleet of hydraulic shovels and front-end wheel loaders.

To identify the optimal pit size and mining sequence, Tetra Tech used Datamine™ NPVS software for pit optimization. Datamine™ employs the Lerchs-Grossmann (LG) algorithm to evaluate the net value of individual blocks within the block model. Molybdenum pricing for the pit optimization is based on monthly trailing average over medium to long-term periods. An assumed molybdenum price of US$23 per pound (Mo) has been applied. Life of mine (LOM) operating costs were based on previous technical studies.

Guided by the pit optimization process, four pushbacks have been designed and incorporated into the mining sequence to bring higher grade material forward and to defer a large quantity of waste rock stripping (table below). Pushbacks were designed to provide operational flexibility. For most of the LOM, there are at least two active pushbacks being mined at one time, reducing the loading requirements and allowing progressive sustaining capital expenditures. The figure below shows the total mining quantities with pushback schedule.

The life-of-mine plan comprises 22 years of active mining operations followed by two years of low-grade stockpile processing. Mining is conducted at a consistent rate of 19.0 Mt of material annually during the first seven years before increasing to 24.7 Mt, maintaining steady operational performance with an average strip ratio of 0.7:1. The process plant is designed for a nominal throughput of 30,000 tonnes per day (approximately 11.0 million tonnes per year). Average molybdenum production over the 24-year mine life is estimated at approximately 11.4 million pounds per year. Mill throughput is planned at 75% of nameplate capacity in Year 1 and 100% from Year 2 onward, allowing for a controlled start-up and optimization of plant performance. The figure below illustrates the proposed pit pushback sequence.

A stockpile strategy has been defined to feed the process plant with the highest-grade material at the start of the operation and stockpile the lower grade material to be processed in the later years. The goal was to optimize the pit to schedule the high-grade mill feed as early as possible and process the low-grade mill feed contained inside the pit at the end of the LOM. The figures below show the dynamic mill feed and average mill feed grade, respectively.

Processing

Comprehensive metallurgical test work on the Adanac mineralized material was completed prior to 2006 in support of earlier studies. The materials demonstrated a good response to conventional flotation processing. The test work includes comminution characterization, flowsheet development and flotation condition optimization, including regrind size determination and product settling tests. The test results indicated that molybdenum recoveries of more than 90% are achievable.

Based on the test work results, the optimized flowsheet was developed for this study. The process flowsheet is designed for 30,000 tpd and follows a conventional molybdenite flotation circuit to produce a high-grade molybdenum concentrate, which will be further processed at an offsite roasting facility. The processing plant (see simplified process flow diagram below) will consist of the following:

A primary crusher with crushed material stockpiling, followed by a SAG-ball mill (SAB) grinding circuit.Rougher flotation with a concentrate regrind circuit.Cleaner flotation comprising a first-stage cleaner and cleaner-scavenger, followed by a second regrind stage.Multi-stage column cleaner flotation producing a final saleable concentrate.Concentrate thickening followed by pressure filtration and drying prior to packaging and shipment.Associated utility and reagent systems.

Infrastructure

The Project benefits from existing transportation infrastructure, proximity to future regional power initiatives and favourable site characteristics that support future development, including:

Road Access: The Adanac Molybdenum Project is accessible from Atlin, British Columbia by road, approximately 35 km away. Atlin provides year-round road access to Whitehorse, YT (approximately two hours), and ice-free deep-water Port of Skagway, Alaska (about 3.5 hours providing efficient logistics for project construction, operation, and molybdenum concentrate shipment to the Asian markets.Power: At the conceptual level, the Project may benefit from future regional hydroelectric infrastructure, including the proposed Atlin Hydro Expansion Project and the BC-Yukon Grid Connect initiative. Both remain subject to future planning, regulatory approvals, consultations and agreements with the relevant agencies and utilities.Water: Several surface water bodies are located near the project site and are expected to provide suitable water sources for future operations, subject to detailed engineering and permitting. Tailings Management Facility ("TMF"): A natural valley proximal to the deposit provides a suitable topographic setting for tailings containment. Cyclone processing of the tailings will generate sand fractions for use as TMF embankment construction material, thereby reducing the volume of imported or conventionally sourced fill and lowering overall embankment construction costs. Tailings will be deposited sub-aqueously to maintain saturated conditions, limit oxygen ingress, and reduce the potential for acid rock drainage generation.Camp and Services: A 160-person accommodation camp is planned to support construction and operations. Camp services are expected to be provided by third-party contractors, creating potential business and employment opportunities for nearby Indigenous communities.Overall Site General Arrangement: The overall site arrangement is presented in the figure below.

Environmental, Social, and Permitting

The Project is located within the traditional territory of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation. EraNova is committed to meaningful engagement with the Taku River Tlingit First Nation throughout all stages of Project advancement.

A previous EAC was issued for Adanac in 2007, reflecting the advanced stage of historical project development and providing a strong foundation for future environmental assessment and permitting efforts. The Company intends to build on this work as it advances the Project toward a Feasibility Study and future development.

Opportunities and Exploration Potential

The PEA presents a conceptual development scenario for Adanac based on current information. The following opportunities may be evaluated in future technical studies to further optimize the Project's technical and financial performance.

Power Optimization

EraNova intends to evaluate opportunities to connect the Project to regional clean power infrastructure, including the proposed BC-Yukon Grid Connect initiative or other future grid connection alternatives. Access to grid power could reduce operating costs and greenhouse gas emissions compared with on-site diesel power generation and may support increased electrification of mining and processing equipment in future development scenarios.

Government and Critical Minerals Funding Opportunities

Molybdenum is included on Canada's critical minerals list. EraNova intends to evaluate available federal and provincial funding, infrastructure and strategic investment programs that may support future engineering, infrastructure development and project advancement.

Closure Cost Refinement

The PEA applies a conservative estimate for closure costs. Additional geochemical and hydrological and site-specific engineering studies may allow estimates to be further refined in subsequent technical studies.

District-Scale Exploration Optionality

The Atlin Discovery Project provides district-scale exploration upside beyond the Adanac development case, creating an additional opportunity for long-term value creation across the broader Ruby Creek Property. In addition to high-grade gold, silver and copper targets, the Property hosts significant tungsten mineralization spatially associated with the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit, providing opportunities to further evaluate and potentially enhance long-term project value through future exploration.

Targets include:

Silver Surprise: High-grade silver target located approximately 7 km northeast of the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit, where a 1,585-pound surface mini-bulk sample averaged 4,200 g/t silver and achieved 95% silver recoveries from direct smelting. (See December 1, 2025 news release.)Lakeview: Gold-silver target characterized by multiple steeply dipping quartz veins, where recent exploration identified visible gold and returned grab samples of up to 257 g/t gold and 3,660 g/t silver*. (See March 2, 2026 news release.)Ruffner: Historic silver-producing area where recent exploration uncovered a potential copper-gold porphyry system beneath historical high-grade silver mineralization, highlighting the potential for multiple deposit styles within the broader Ruby Creek Property.Thor Ridge / Black Diamond Corridor (Tungsten): Historic and recent exploration has identified widespread tungsten mineralization associated with the Ruby Creek intrusive system, including historical values of up to 17% WO₃*. Much of the historical molybdenum drilling has not been systematically assayed for tungsten, representing an opportunity to evaluate the potential contribution of tungsten to the broader project.* Grab samples are selective by nature and may not be representative of mineralization across the property.

Next Steps/Path Forward

Advancing Engineering
The completion of the PEA establishes a strong technical foundation for the next stage of engineering. Given the extensive historical engineering completed at Adanac, the Company believes the Project is well positioned to advance directly to feasibility-level engineering.

Future work is expected to focus on metallurgical optimization, geotechnical and hydrogeological investigations, detailed mine, infrastructure and tailings engineering, environmental studies, and continued refinement of the Project's capital and operating cost estimates.

Engineering Support Drilling
The Company anticipates evaluating a targeted drilling program of approximately 3,000 metres to support feasibility-level engineering. The program would be expected to focus primarily on infill drilling, geotechnical investigations and metallurgical sample collection, rather than material mineral resource expansion.

Environmental & Permitting
In parallel with the Feasibility Study, EraNova intends to advance the environmental assessment process and obtain the regulatory approvals required to support future Project development, building on the substantial environmental studies and technical work completed during the previous Environmental Assessment process. The Company will continue to engage with the Taku River Tlingit First Nation, regulators and local stakeholders throughout this process.

Strategic Development
The Company will continue evaluating opportunities to advance the Project through strategic partnerships, government-supported critical mineral initiatives and engagement with potential customers and other industry participants.

Exploration
The Company also intends to continue selectively evaluating exploration opportunities across the Atlin Discovery Project, including the Silver Surprise, Lakeview, Ruffner and Black Diamond Corridor target areas. These activities will complement the Company's primary focus of advancing the Adanac Project toward a Feasibility Study.

Tetra Tech NASDAQ: TTEK reported fiscal 2026 third-quarter results that exceeded its guidance range, supported by double-digit growth in U.S. federal and international markets, higher backlog and strong operating cash flow. The company raised its full-year adjusted earnings per share outlook following the quarter.

Chief Executive Officer and President Roger Argus said net revenue reached $1.1 billion in the quarter, exceeding the high end of the company’s guidance, while adjusted earnings per share of $0.42 also came in above expectations. Operating cash flow totaled $229 million during the quarter and $467 million through the first nine months of fiscal 2026, which Argus described as a record for the first three quarters of a fiscal year.

Get Tetra Tech alerts:

Backlog increased by $208 million, or 5% sequentially, to just under $4.5 billion. Argus said the company counts only contracted, funded and authorized work in its backlog, providing what he characterized as high-quality visibility into future activity.

Segment and Market Performance The Government Services Group grew 7% year over year and posted a 17.5% margin in the third quarter. Demand was particularly solid in water, environmental and defense work for U.S. federal as well as state and local government customers, according to Argus.

The Commercial International Group increased revenue 9% from a year earlier and reported a 15.1% margin. Growth reflected a diversified set of water, power and energy, and mining assignments around the world.

International revenue rose 12% year over year and accounted for 47% of the business, driven by water programs in the U.K., Ireland and Netherlands; infrastructure work in Canada; and mining and digital automation revenue in Australia. U.S. federal revenue increased 12% and represented 20% of total business, aided by infrastructure, planning and environmental work for defense and civilian customers. U.S. commercial revenue increased 1% and represented 20% of the business. Growth in energy, transmission, mining and minerals work was partly offset by lower renewable-energy activity and the cancellation of remaining Atlantic Coast offshore wind programs. U.S. state and local revenue grew 5%, with continuing demand for municipal water projects involving PFAS treatment, digital modernization, water reuse and desalination. The company cited several new awards and contract additions that supported backlog growth. These included nearly $300 million in contract capacity with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Mobile and Norfolk districts, as well as a lead designer role for what Argus said will be the largest dedicated municipal PFAS treatment system in the U.S., located in Dayton, Ohio.

Commercial orders were led by digital automation services for data centers, power and transmission assignments, and sediment-restoration programs. During the question-and-answer session, Argus said the company’s data-center work has broadened from engineering and commissioning into feasibility studies and work related to power and water supplies for new facilities. He said data-center revenue is currently about $60 million for the year.

Margins, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation Chief Financial Officer Steve Burdick said operating income rose significantly despite reported revenue declining from the prior year, primarily because of lower revenue from the company’s USA customer and the absence of certain one-time disaster work recorded last year. He said the company’s focus on front-end technical design and engineering work in water and environmental markets has supported higher margins.

Adjusted EBITDA margin on net revenue increased about 80 basis points through the first nine months of fiscal 2026 compared with the same period in fiscal 2025, Burdick said. On a net service revenue basis, he said EBITDA margin would be about 240 basis points higher year to date.

The company’s days sales outstanding stood at 56 days, similar to the prior year and improved from the fiscal second quarter. Tetra Tech’s net debt-to-EBITDA leverage was 0.88 times, compared with 0.96 times a year earlier, while return on capital employed exceeded 20%.

Tetra Tech reported $567 million of trailing-12-month operating cash flow and said it intends to use its balance sheet and cash generation to support organic growth and acquisitions. Year to date, it closed acquisitions of defense-focused technical firms Halvik in the U.S. and Providence in Australia.

The board approved a quarterly cash dividend that is 11% higher than the year-ago payment, marking the company’s 45th consecutive quarterly dividend with annual double-digit increases, according to Burdick. The company also increased its third-quarter share repurchase activity to $100 million, bringing nine-month buybacks to $200 million. It has $398 million remaining under its board-approved repurchase authorization.

Federal Environment and Water Demand Argus said federal work continues to face administrative constraints following staffing reductions at U.S. government contracting offices. While Tetra Tech continues to win work and build backlog, he said the flow of task orders and awards remains constrained. He also cited uncertainty surrounding the U.S. administration and geopolitical conditions as factors causing some commercial customers to be cautious about initiating new programs.

Regarding the former U.S. Agency for International Development business, Argus said USAID “does not exist anymore,” while the Department of State will remain a client. He said the company expects Department of State work to continue at some level but remains conservative in forecasting its contribution, particularly amid uncertainty around aid-related programs and work in Ukraine.

Burdick said Ukraine-related aid work contributed about $66 million in the third quarter and is expected to be in a similar range in the fourth quarter.

In municipal water, Argus said Tetra Tech’s water treatment business remained up double digits year over year in the third quarter despite uncertainty around certain federal funding programs. He said municipalities are pursuing rate increases, bonds, commercial financing and other sources to fund needed projects. Flood protection has seen a more direct impact from reduced federal co-funding, though he said it represents a smaller part of the company’s state and local business.

Raised Fiscal 2026 Outlook For the fiscal fourth quarter, Tetra Tech forecast net revenue of $1.12 billion to $1.17 billion and adjusted earnings per share of $0.45 to $0.48.

For fiscal 2026, the company raised its adjusted EPS outlook to $1.56 to $1.59 and projected net revenue of $4.315 billion to $4.365 billion. At the midpoint, the outlook implies 8% year-over-year net revenue growth and 70 basis points of margin expansion. The guidance excludes contributions from future acquisitions.

Argus said water-related demand remains a central driver of the company’s global growth opportunities, including in hydropower, digital automation, resilient infrastructure, mining and data centers. He said the company views artificial intelligence as an enabler for its technical professionals, helping them evaluate larger data sets and develop site-specific solutions, rather than as a replacement for its front-end applied science and engineering services.

Tetra shares have lost about 0.1% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 8.5%.

What's Next for Tetra?While Tetra has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Tetra was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.47 on $1.15 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $1.55 on $4.31 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Engineering - R and D Services is currently in the top 34% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

One other stock from the same industry, Mayville Engineering (MEC - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on August 4.

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.08 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -180%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.

Mayville Engineering's revenues are expected to be $149.69 million, up 13.1% from the year-ago quarter.

Key Takeaways Tetra Tech secured a single-award deal for EWA's CLEAR project involving digital infrastructure upgrades.TTEK will integrate systems for biogas, emissions controls, energy storage and microgrid operations.The project aims to enhance wastewater efficiency and resource recovery through upgraded systems. Tetra Tech, Inc. (TTEK - Free Report) recently announced that it has secured a single-award deal from Encina Wastewater Authority (EWA). The latest deal will involve the company providing digital automation and operational technology network solutions for EWA’s Cogeneration Low-Emission Augmentation and Retrofit (CLEAR) project in California.

As part of the deal, Tetra Tech will help in installing microgrid control and gas conditioning systems within the digital infrastructure of the facility. TTEK’s digital systems professionals will work on integrating information systems across biological trickling filters, oxidation catalyst emissions controls, a digester biogas conditioning facility, a 1-megawatt linear generator facility and a 1.5 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system.

This will improve the wastewater treatment process by enhancing the biogas efficiency and reducing emissions, thereby supporting EWA in offering reliable wastewater treatment and resource recovery services.

This deal is a testimony to the long-standing collaboration between both the entities. It’s worth noting that TTEK has been providing operational technology and systems integration services since 2017.

Lately, Tetra Tech has received a series of deals that are likely to drive its growth. In June 2026, TTEK secured a contract from Chelan County Public Utility District (“PUD”) for the Hydropower Dam Spillway Modernization Project at the Rock Island and Rocky Reach hydroelectric dams in Washington. The company will serve as the lead design engineer as part of a team that includes Kuney Construction and J.F. Brennan.

Also, it recently secured an engineering and technical consultancy framework from a Scotland-based company, Scotland Excel, to provide services for infrastructure and environmental projects across Scotland.

FTSE 100 up 160 points to 10,127 Brent crude oil hovers around $115/barrel Iran says US diplomatic demands 'unrealistic' Asos hails strong Debenhams turnaround  5.30pm: Winning day for London stocks Despite continued uncertainty over the US-Iran war and rising oil prices, London stocks rallied during Monday’s session to finish the day 160 points higher at 10,127.

4.04pm: FTSE on a flier The FTSE has enjoyed a very strong day so far, with the index up 1.6%. 

It's outperforming European stocks, where the DAX and CAC indices are both up just over 0.5%, and US stocks, where the S&P 500 is up 0.4%.

The leaderboard is led by consumer, property and financial stocks, with Burberry, Land Securities and London Stock Exchange Group among the top risers.

Burberry has been helped by some supportive analyst comments today, including from UBS.

Defence and utilities also advanced, with BAE Systems, SSE, and National Grid higher.

Chris Beauchamp at IG provides a voice for those that remain sceptical. 

“At this point it is impossible to know whether the negotiations between the US and Iran are actually occurring in some way or are merely figments of Trump’s imagination," he say.

"At any rate, the market impact of his interventions gets weaker, as we saw today. The brief bounce in stocks has rapidly fizzled out – until investors are treated to the sight of senior US officials physically getting on a plane to Pakistan to negotiate, investors will become more sceptical.”

He says the equation remains as it has done for most of the month, higher oil prices mean losses for equity markets.

"Everything else is secondary. Oil’s response has been much more muted than many had expected, but once the buffers of afloat storage are used up and shortages become commonplace, we can expect a much more dramatic move."

3pm: Oil prices ease International oil prices have eased a little this afternoon. Brent crude has dropped from above $116 this morning to just below $113 now.

The dollar is up, gold is up and market volatility via the VIX index is down.

US WTI crude is little changed however, up over 2% at around $102. 

All this follows the Trump post about talks. 

"However, we have seen these sorts of remarks repeatedly, only for the Israeli bombing to continue and Iran striking back in retaliation," says market analyst Fawad Razaqzada at Forex.com.

"In fact, Iran’s Speaker of Parliament, Ghalibaf, yesterday posted a heads-up on X, telling us exactly what to expect and how the move should then be faded."

He said it makes it difficult to know who to believe, and makes "trading these headline-driven markets in general quite difficult to navigate".

2.56pm: US tech stocks fail to hold early gains   US stocks started higher, but have flattened off, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq now only one point in the green.   

The Dow Jones is up 0.3% at 45,315, while the S&P 500 has added 0.15%.

Meanwhile, the FTSE is holding onto most of its gains, having topped 10,080 in recent minutes. 

2.25pm: Trump latest Donald Trump, in what are starting to feel like customary pre-Wall Street open Truth Social posts, said the US is in “serious discussions” with Iran.

He said the talks were being held for a “new and more reasonable regime” to end the war.

"Great progress has been made but, if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately 'Open for Business,' we will conclude our lovely 'stay' in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet 'touched.'

"This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime’s 47 year ]Reign of Terror'," he said in the post. 

1.27am: More competition for banks Money transfer specialist Wise PLC (LSE:WISE) is moving into bank territory with the launch of current accounts in the UK.

The fintech launched UK current accounts today, offering to its 3 million active customers and businesses in the UK.

Noting that £250 billion is held in UK current accounts earning zero interest, Wise said its current account customers could earn a 3.26% variable rate on GBP balances through 'Wise Assets Interest'.

Looking to attract customers, Wise is enabling features for account holders such as allowing them to buy airport lounge passes through the app, and offering accounts for children under 18 linked to a parent’s account.

Wise's chief product officer said tradiational banks "haven't kept pace with what customers expect for their current account. People shouldn't need separate accounts for home and abroad. With the Wise current account, we're giving customers a smarter way to manage their daily financial needs."

12.24pm:

Flutter Entertainment PLC's (LSE:FLTR, NYSE:FLUT) prediction markets app could generate $125 million in annual revenues not yet factored into company guidance or market consensus, according to Jefferies.

The investment bank has a 16,000p price target on the global betting and gaming group, which is more than double the current share price, which sits at 7,636.95p, up 34.95p today.

Analysts note that FanDuel Predicts, Flutter's prediction market app, has sustained strong download momentum following its first major marketing campaign earlier this month.

Daily downloads peaked at 48,000 on 14 March before settling at an average of around 11,000 over the past week, well above the 3,000 daily average recorded through February prior to the campaign launch.

11.59am: M&S in the US Marks and Spencer Group PLC (LSE:MKS) is dipping another toe in the US clothing market via an agreement to sell a "curated selection" of clothing products with Nordstrom. 

Nordstrom will offer a selection of around 60 M&S womenswear items in-store and online.

M&S, which has a US-facing online store, says it is "the first time M&S Fashion will be sold in store in the US and follows the success of M&S Food, which landed in Target back in 2022".

M&S points out that just over one in 10 customers in the US are aware of M&S as a fashion brand and so it hopes Nordstrom’s "broad customer reach" will help it build brand awareness.

Market analyst Danni Hewson at AJ Bell says: “UK corporate forays in the US have been more akin to 90s bands’ largely desultory efforts than the successful British invasion of groups like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in the 60s."

She notes that it comes nearly a quarter of a century after M&S sold the Brooks Brothers clothing chain, which was dumped at a significant loss after "a genuine retail disaster story".

"This is a much more cautious approach than it previously pursued but could nonetheless be significant if it can tap even a portion of what is an extremely large market."

The food launch with Target has been "successful if modest", Hewson says, "and shows the brand is not sitting still as it looks for different paths to growth". 

11.22am: BoE rate hikes are not likely, says UBS  Inflation will rise and growth will fall regardless of how quickly the conflict ends, says UBS economist Dean Turner, but he thinks markets are overdoing expectations for Bank of England rate hikes given already-soft labour market conditions.

Even if the war ended today, with the Strait of Hormuz fully opened, it will likely take "many weeks" for flows of oil and LNG to return to previous levels, while damage to energy infrastructure means it could be "years" for flows to return to pre-conflict levels, says Turner.

"So, it is as certain as anything can be in the world of economics that inflation will be higher and growth lower in the coming months."

The FTSE and S&P 500 have fallen around 7% over the past month, while on bond markets, yields on 10-year US Treasuries and gilts have soared due to expectations for higher inflation and weaker growth.

While this is "not an unreasonable assumption", Turner says expectations for central bank policy U-turns, which also are a key driver of bond markets, are "more questionable at this stage".

Rising inflation has flipped market expections from one or two BoE rate cuts this year, to either two to four hikes before the end of the year.

"Unquestionably, the BoE delivered a hawkish message at the last meeting, but speeches since then have seen the tone become a little more pragmatic," Turner points out.

"One thing is clear to us: rate cuts are off the table for the time being, and we currently think that November is the earliest opportunity for this.

"But the need for rate hikes is much more questionable. As many have already pointed out, there is nothing that monetary policy can do to offset the closing of the Strait of Hormuz; second-round effects of higher prices (read as accelerating wage growth) are the focus.

"Given the evident softness already in the labour market, our view is that market expectations for hikes are overdone."

However, as the conflict continues, he says "it makes sense" for investors to consider reducing risk in portfolios, "and using periods of volatility to rebalance investments in line with long-term investment plans".

10.28am: Iran says US demands 'unrealistic' and 'excessive' US proposals to end the war, says the spokesperson for Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, are "unrealistic, illogical and excessive".

Esmaeil Baqaei told reporters that Iran received messages via intermediaries indicating the US’s willingness to negotiate, Reuters reports. 

“Our position is clear. We are under military aggression. Therefore, all our efforts and strength are focused on defending ourselves,” he says.

Yesterday foreign ministers from Pakistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey convened in Islamabad to discuss reopening the Strait of Hormuz shipping lanes. 

10.22am: Bank of England money and credit data for February Mortgage approvals rose to 62,600 in February from 60,200 in January, above the consensus forecast of 60K. 

Meanwhile, households deposited a net £5.8 billion into banks and building societies, up from £4.3 billion the previous month – with £4.6 billion flowing into ISAs alone ahead of the tax year end.

The effective rate on newly drawn mortgages edged up to 4.10% from 4.09%.

Analysts note the figures predate the Middle East conflict and the inflationary pressures it has triggered, making them something of a snapshot of a more optimistic moment that has since passed.

"Consumers appeared comfortable with their levels of savings just prior to the War in Iran, suggesting a willingness for households to partly smooth consumption through the latest energy price shock," says Elliott Jordan-Doak, economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics. 

The improvement in housing market activity matched the good mood seen in the lending data, he says.

"But we think activity in the housing market will grind down over Q2, with much of the hit to activity in the housing market coming from a blow to sentiment, given how sensitive the market has been to the newsflow over the past few years.

"That said, fundamental affordability will also deteriorate if the MPC hikes interest rates several times this year, as the market is expecting. So, we now expect house prices to rise by just 1.0% year-over-year in Q4 2026, down from our call of 3.0% before."

9.34am: Markets higher 'but wary' While the FTSE and other European indices are higher, "intense wariness remains" in financial markets, says market analyst Susannah Streeter at Wealth Club, as concerns about the Iran war’s duration continue.

President Trump’s words are "no longer holding as much sway, with increasing scepticism about his claims about the war’s trajectory", says Streeter.

"While last week his boast that significant progress had been made in talks saw a sharp reversal in oil prices, today it’s a different story. Brent crude is staying stubbornly elevated, at the painful level of above $115 a barrel, as traders assess an increasingly complex and intractable conflict."

But she notes that Trump's messaging is also complex, if not confusing; threatening escalation on one hand, positioning to seize the strategically important Kharg Island, on the other he is claiming a deal is close to being done.

"The warnings that crude prices could hit $150 a barrel if the war continues for many weeks or even months are a highly troubling prospect. Qatar forecast that possibility and Iran has warned that crude prices could even hit $200 a barrel.

"Given the destruction of energy facilities and the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, any big retreat in crude prices looks unlikely right now. However, there are no shortages of supply, and panic at the pumps will cause even more problems."

9.12am: Footsie stepping higher After just over an hour of trading, the FTSE 100 is firmly higher, with many of the index's heavyweights putting in solid gains.

Of the top 12 largest stocks, only two are in the red (HSBC down 0.5% and Rolls down 0.2%), with many of them up well over 1%.

While oil giants Shell and BP are both up around 1.5% due to the elevated crude price, AstraZeneca, BAT, Glencore, National Grid and BAE Systems are all up strongly. 

Rio Tinto is top of the risers after reassuring investors that it is keeping guidance intact after a tropical cyclone caused some shipping terminals to shut.  

8.46am: A rare IPO  London has a new arrival on the market this morning.

Halo Minerals, a company looking to extract copper from legacy mining waste in northern Chile, has raised £4 million and listed on AIM.

The shares started on the back foot as trading began this morning, dropping 4% to 17.25p from the 18p issue price of the initial public offering.

Operations are focused on processing tailings at the 100% owned Playa Verde project in the Atacama region, the prolific copper-producing area where BHP's Escondida mine is based, along with operations of state-owned giant Codelco, which has partnerships with Antofagasta, Freeport-McMoRan and Rio Tinto.

8.15am: FTSE starts week in green The FTSE 100 has begun the week slightly on the front foot, up around 13 points to just over 9,980.

A 3.6% rise for Rio Tinto, outperforming smaller gains for the wider mining sector, with Glencore next, up 0.9%. 

Housebuilders such as Barratt Redrow and utilities such as SSE were helping, likely to be boosted as government bond yields retreated (see analysis below). 

Biggest fallers are 3i Group, Informa, HSBC and Whitbread. 

7.44am: Boohoo hails cost cutting impact on profits Boohoo Group PLC (AIM:DEBS) has delivered underlying profits comfortably ahead of its own guidance, with EBITDA up 36% to £53 million in the year to February, driven by a 76% surge in the second half.

The online fashion retailer, which operates under the Debenhams brand, said the second-half growth reflected the accelerated impact of its cost-cutting and restructuring programme.

Chief executive Dan Finley said the business had reset its cost base, completed a warehouse consolidation, migrated to a new technology platform and "rightsized" its stock levels – work he described as "significant progress, ahead of our plan".

Finley has also nudged up the outlook for the coming year too.

7.33am: Market analysis - oil up but bonds ease With a new threat to shipping through the Suez Canal over the weekend, oil prices have continued to climb as we start a new week, with Brent crude topping $116 a barrel earlier and sitting above $115.

"Several factors have contributed," says Henry Allen at Deutsche Bank's macro strategy team, but the joining of the Iran-backed Houthis to the Middle East conflict over the weekend, launching strikes at Israel, has raised "fears about a new front in the war".

The Wall Street Journal has also reported this morning that President Trump is weighing a military operation to extract Iran’s uranium, adding to the FT interview where he Trump openly suggested the US could take the Kharg Island export hub.

"So there’s still no sign of a clear end to the conflict, and given the various headlines, investors remain fearful about a fresh escalation.

"With everything that’s happened, the market impact is becoming increasingly serious," he says, with the S&P 500 down for five consecutive weeks for the first time since 2022, back when the global economy was facing a similar stagflationary shock, while the Nasdaq fell over 3% last week to mark its worst weekly performance since Trump's tarriff announcements last year.

"Fears about a longer conflict are evident from the energy futures curve," says Allen, with three-month Brent crude futures up another 1.8% this morning to $100.50 a barrel, which would be their highest closing level since the conflict began.

"So it’s becoming clear that markets are expecting an extended period of high oil prices, with stagflationary implications for the global economy.

"Interestingly though, the primary concern this morning has shifted back to the growth side rather than inflation. So markets are pricing out the likelihood of imminent hikes and sovereign bond yields have fallen."

On the index swaps market, the next ECB meeting in April below 50% for the first time in over a week, while US 10yr Treasury yields fell back overnight from their eight-month high on Friday.

"Meanwhile for equities, US futures are stable this morning, with those on the S&P 500 unchanged, but they’re more negative in Europe, with DAX futures down -0.65%."

7.18am: FTSE 100 expected to start lower The FTSE 100 is expected to start the week with a decline of around 24 points, as energy prices continue to climb amidst threats to key shipping lanes in the Middle East and rhetoric from US President Donald Trump.

Brent crude is standing above $115 a barrel, similar to levels reached at the end of last week, with investors weighing the risk of further disruption to global energy supplies and ensuing inflation.

Trump said a deal with Iran was possible but said his preference would be to “take the oil”, he told the FT, which would involve ground troops seizing the key export hub Kharg Island.

But, per Reuters, he told reporters on Air Force One: "I think we’ll make a deal with them, I’m pretty sure. But it’s possible we won’t."

The London index closed at 9,967.35 last week, down around five points on the last day of trading, up around 50 over the week but down over 800 points since the start of the month. 

Asian markets are down this morning, with Japan's Nikkei 3%, while the Hang Seng is down 1% and India's Sensex 1.4% lower.  

American Rare Earths Ltd (ASX:ARR, OTCQX:ARRNF) has commissioned a key technical study aimed at advancing its ambitions to move further down the rare earths value chain, engaging US engineering group Tetra Tech (NASDAQ:TTEK) to assess pathways from oxide production to metal for its flagship Halleck Creek project in Wyoming.

The Oxides to Metals study will evaluate how the company can convert separated heavy rare earth oxides into metal — a critical midstream step immediately preceding the manufacture of permanent magnets used across defence and advanced technology applications.

The move builds on American Rare Earths’ broader strategy to establish an integrated, US-based rare earths supply chain, at a time when policymakers are seeking to reduce reliance on China’s dominance in midstream processing and magnet production.

Study targets critical heavy rare earths suite The work will focus on the company’s heavy rare earth elements (HREE) suite — including samarium, gadolinium, terbium and dysprosium — which are essential for high-temperature permanent magnets used in electric vehicles, defence systems and clean energy technologies.

Tetra Tech will assess a range of processing technologies, including molten salt electrolysis and calciothermic reduction, before selecting a preferred development pathway.

Key outputs from the study are expected to include:

A preferred processing technology for oxide-to-metal conversion A process flow diagram and mass balance A major equipment list Preliminary capital and operating cost estimates An assessment of the strategic and operational benefits of integrating metal production with planned refining operations in Wyoming The study will be led out of Tetra Tech’s Salt Lake City, Utah, office.

Extending Halleck Creek’s value chain The initiative represents the next step in assessing how far downstream American Rare Earths can take production from Halleck Creek, which the company has previously highlighted as one of the largest known rare earth deposits in North America.

With bench-scale work already demonstrating the ability to produce separated rare earth oxides, the current study shifts focus to downstream integration — from mining and refining through to metal production within the United States.

CEO Mark Wall said the work aligns with the company’s goal of building a secure domestic supply chain.

“American Rare Earths believes that advancing oxide-to-metal options for its heavy rare earths stream is an important step toward realising its vision of a Wyoming-based, mine-to-magnet contribution to the US rare earths supply chain,” he said.

Aligning with US policy priorities The study also positions American Rare Earths within a broader push by the US government to develop domestic capabilities across the rare earths value chain.

China currently dominates the midstream segment, including oxide separation and metal production. In response, US policymakers have identified rare earths as a strategic priority, supporting initiatives that strengthen domestic processing and manufacturing capacity.

By evaluating in-country metal production, American Rare Earths is aiming to offer future customers and partners a jurisdictionally secure supply of critical materials — particularly heavy rare earth metals, which are typically more constrained and strategically valuable than their light rare earth counterparts.

Building on recent momentum The oxide-to-metal study follows a series of developments aimed at advancing Halleck Creek and strengthening the company’s technical and strategic capabilities.

Recent updates have included supplying ore from Halleck Creek for US Department of Energy-backed research programs and expanding leadership with senior technical appointments to drive project development.

The company has also been progressing broader project studies and refining its development pathway as it seeks to position Halleck Creek as a cornerstone asset in the emerging US rare earths supply chain.

With the latest study now under way, American Rare Earths is moving to define how its resource can translate into higher-value downstream products — a step that could materially influence project economics and strategic relevance as global demand for critical minerals continues to accelerate.

Tetra Tech (TTEK - Free Report) could be a solid choice for investors given its recent upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). This rating change essentially reflects an upward trend in earnings estimates -- one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.

The Zacks rating relies solely on a company's changing earnings picture. It tracks EPS estimates for the current and following years from the sell-side analysts covering the stock through a consensus measure -- the Zacks Consensus Estimate.

The power of a changing earnings picture in determining near-term stock price movements makes the Zacks rating system highly useful for individual investors, since it can be difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts. These are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.

Therefore, the Zacks rating upgrade for Tetra basically reflects positivity about its earnings outlook that could translate into buying pressure and an increase in its stock price.

Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock PricesThe change in a company's future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, and the near-term price movement of its stock are proven to be strongly correlated. The influence of institutional investors has a partial contribution to this relationship, as these big professionals use earnings and earnings estimates to calculate the fair value of a company's shares. An increase or decrease in earnings estimates in their valuation models simply results in higher or lower fair value for a stock, and institutional investors typically buy or sell it. Their transaction of large amounts of shares then leads to price movement for the stock.

For Tetra, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade fundamentally mean an improvement in the company's underlying business. And investors' appreciation of this improving business trend should push the stock higher.

Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate RevisionsAs empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock movements, tracking such revisions for making an investment decision could be truly rewarding. Here is where the tried-and-tested Zacks Rank stock-rating system plays an important role, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.

The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>> .

Earnings Estimate Revisions for TetraFor the fiscal year ending September 2026, this consulting and engineering services company is expected to earn $1.50 per share, which is unchanged compared with the year-ago reported number.

Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Tetra. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 1%.

Bottom LineUnlike the overly optimistic Wall Street analysts whose rating systems tend to be weighted toward favorable recommendations, the Zacks rating system maintains an equal proportion of "buy" and "sell" ratings for its entire universe of more than 4,000 stocks at any point in time. Irrespective of market conditions, only the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks get a "Strong Buy" rating and the next 15% get a "Buy" rating. So, the placement of a stock in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks indicates its superior earnings estimate revision feature, making it a solid candidate for producing market-beating returns in the near term.

The upgrade of Tetra to a Zacks Rank #2 positions it in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks in terms of estimate revisions, implying that the stock might move higher in the near term.
