Previous guidance was $415m - 425m, new guidance $405m - $410m. However note it includes a $27m impairment from the FPO contract which will deliver $50-$100m of benefits in following years. So 'normalise' that and it's actually an upgrade?
Interesting to see Kupe is being kept given the current gas situation. I know of manufacturers absolutely scrambling to install diesel backups on their gas powered systems... that's the current state of things.
Yes its an upgrade. Old guidance at mid point was $420m - $27m carbon offset generating future returns you mentioned = $393m.
New guidance at midpoint is $407.5m so that's a $14.5m upgrade.
Far more importantly they're keeping Kupe which as noted in previous posts I've made is the result I was hoping for.
I bought a few more quite recently and will probably look to do another top-up in due course.

Managed to do a nice top up on the dip earlier this week. Country will be relying on Huntly late into this decade in my opinion.

'Invested' in GNE as a bond proxy (as know very little about industry)
Yield stable around 5% at the moment. The gap between yield and 5 yr govt stock (risk factor) is below 4% points and about the smallest its been
Where to from here - depends on how interest rates move and how 'risky' the market sees GNE. Can't see an increased dividend in near future
Popular opinion is increasing interest rates - not good for share price
A coupleof charts tracking my bond investment
Disc: bought these bonds at a yield of 6.1% so have some decent capital gains to soften any blow .....but could turn into a 'bond trader' any day as they seem to churn out bad news every few weeks
