New Zealand Metals and Mining Stock News

CDL Investments New Zealand closed at NZ$0.65 on Monday, with the stock roughly flat over the past week and slightly weaker over the past month. On the surface that looks like a quiet reaction to fresh numbers. The headline story is less calm. Profitability continues to feel the squeeze, with trailing net profit margin at 29.5% compared with 35.1% a year earlier, and earnings declining at an annualised rate of 26.8% over five years. For a property developer where margins and land cycle timing...

Contact Energy entered today with a stock that had drifted lower over the past three months and closed at NZ$8.97. The share price feels cautious. The earnings story does not.

The core question for investors is whether this surge in profitability matches the muted price action or if the market is still anchored to old worries about debt and...

T&G Global came into this result with a stock that had drifted over the past quarter and a P/E of 21.1x that already asked investors to pay up for every dollar of earnings. The headline today is not the share price reaction. It is the thin 0.8% net margin that still leaves very little room for error in a low margin food business. Recent earnings growth looks strong on paper, yet it sits against interest costs that are not well covered by profits and a discounted cash flow value of NZ$1.21...

Vista Group International went into this earnings print with the stock already up roughly 30% over three months and trading on a richer P/S than local software peers. That set the bar high. The headline from H1 2026 is simple. Revenue reached about NZ$86m and earnings slipped back into a small loss, yet investors saw something they liked in the core cinema software story. The real swing factor was cash and growth quality. Software as a service revenue moved past half of group revenue and...
