FY2018 EBITDAF guidance lifted to $530 million
24 January 2018 –
Mercury announced today that it has lifted its FY2018 EBITDAF guidance from $515 million to $530 million.
This is due to an expected 150 GWh increase in full year forecast hydro generation due to continued wet weather in the Taupo
area. Annual hydro generation is now forecast to be 4,550 GWh for the financial year, or 550 GWh above average.
Guidance may change and remains subject to any material events, significant one-off expenses or other unforeseeable
circumstances including changes in hydrological conditions.
