Headline check

One of the three things this headline claims did not turn up in the report.

  • The figure “57%” is in the headline. We could not find it in the report.

Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. Figures are matched digit for digit, so a report that writes “forty per cent” out in words where the headline wrote “40%” is queried here when it should not be. How this is checked

Analysts from Macquarie are soon to tour Nickel Industries Ltd's Indonesian operations, but have issued a positive research note on the company ahead of the visit.

Nickel Industries last month reported a strong financial result for its first half, with revenue up 13.1% to US$938.4 million and net profit up 365.8% to US$52.5 million.

The company has hit a barrier since then, as the ramp-up of its Excelsior Nickel Cobalt HPAL project has been interrupted by dry conditions in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, which have constrained water supply to the operation.

Nickel Industries said its Hengjaya mine, conversely, had been performing well, with record monthly nickel sales of 1.6 million tonnes in August.

Managing Director Justin Werner said re the update:.

Combined July and August Adjusted EBITDA from operations of about US$90 million shows the earnings capacity of the broader business.

Macquarie has a share price forecast of $1.25 on Nickel Industries compared to 79.25 cents now.
