Coronado Global Resources Inc (ASX: CRN)

The Coronado Global share price is up 5% to $1.59. This follows the release of the coal miner's half year results this morning. Thanks to sky high coal prices, Coronado Global reported a 147.4% increase in revenue to US$1,978 million and a 3,204% jump in adjusted EBITDA to US$849 million.

Lake Resources N.L. (ASX: LKE)

The Lake Resources share price is up 15% to $1.23. This is despite there being no news out of the heavily shorted lithium developer. However, it is worth noting that a number of lithium shares are storming higher today. This follows a strong night of trade on Wall Street for lithium shares.

Megaport Ltd (ASX: MP1)

The Megaport share price is up 9% to $8.94. Investors have been buying this network as a service company's shares following the release of its full year results. Megaport reported a 40% increase in revenue to $109.7 million and a 43% lift in monthly recurring revenue to $10.7 million. Management also revealed that it sees "strong momentum" heading into FY 2023.

REA Group Limited (ASX: REA)

The REA share price is up almost 7% to $132.52. This follows the release of the real estate listings company's full year results.
