    Concern with this float is flat profit on FY15 (due to the company undertaking large capex) which will be realised on FY16. Revenue in FY15 is increasing at reasonable pace. In FY14, Huon production is increasing where as Tassal production is decreasing.

    Interestingly enough, the $/kg that Huon sold is slightly lower than Tassal. It is priced slightly lower than Tassal, but not low enough for my liking.. Thoughts?
