Tough December Weighs on First-Half Earnings for Contact

After a strong start to fiscal 2017, Contact Energy's operating performance has deteriorated, similar to other New Zealand gentailers. We estimate Integrated Energy’s first-half fiscal 2017 EBITDA will be up by low single digits over the previous corresponding period, or pcp. With further headwinds in the second half on commencement of a loss-making contract with the Tiwai Point aluminium smelter, earnings appear to be tracking marginally below our forecasts, which we'll update following release...

Co. has two operating segments: Integrated Energy, which is a generator of electricity and a purchaser and retailer of electricity and natural gas to customers throughout New Zealand; as well as Other, which consists of other products and services provided by Co., which includes the sale of LPG.
