Foresta Deepens Half-Year Loss but Advances New Zealand Pine Chemicals Project

Leaf Resources Limited ( (AU:FGH) ) just unveiled an update.

Foresta Group Holdings reported a half-year after-tax loss of about A$2.0 million for the period ended 31 December 2025, with no revenue from ordinary activities and no dividend declared, reflecting its ongoing development phase. Despite the deeper loss, the group strengthened its position by advancing technical and operational work on its Kawerau Stage 1 Project, securing expert consultants, and receiving A$2.4 million in insurance settlement related to the Apple Tree Creek incident, supporting both project momentum and balance sheet resilience.

The company’s focus on detailed design, regulatory consents and best-practice project governance underscores its commitment to bringing a world-first integrated pine chemicals and torrefied wood pellet facility to market. This continued investment, coupled with the insurance payout and robust oversight structures, positions Foresta to progress its New Zealand project while aiming to create longer-term value for shareholders once operations commence.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:FGH) stock is a Sell with a A$0.02 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Leaf Resources Limited stock, see the AU:FGH Stock Forecast page.
