On 14 October, Alkane released its Q125 quarterly activities report, showing almost all of its operating parameters in line with both guidance and our expectations for the full year. The exceptions were its head grade, which exceeded the upper end of the guidance range by 6.1%, and AISC, which improved upon the lower end of the guidance range by 9.1%. Most significant however was confirmation that AISC guidance reflects a one-off cost for decline development that is accounted as sustaining capital (rather than as an operating expense) and as a result we have increased our earnings estimates for FY25 by A$21.2m, or 85.8x (8,479%).
