Or is it the Fonterra news that has driven this rise?

Result was in line with expectations and outlook wasn't hugely detailed, so yes I think it's mostly the fonterra news driving things. Eases a lot of concerns about supply and opens up new markets and products.

Will it be in the eyes of overseas companies for takeover? We see this as a huge company, but some overseas investment groups could swallow this up say at $15-$20 per share

Goldman Sachs, arguably the most bullish on A2M had their forecasts smashed.

Beat EBITDA estimate by 20+% and Sales estimate by 10%... beat gross margin estimate by 13 bps.

They definitely beat expectations this half.
