Engineering firm Obelisk Industrial goes bust, BNZ and Kiwibank among creditors owed $11m

Ecovis' report said the company was in trouble for several months prior to the liquidators' appointment, 'caused by the current economic environment, high levels of debt, and exacerbated by a complete lack of governance on the part of the director'. Ecovis said attempts to restructure the business failed, 'culminating with an alleged misappropriation of a significant amount of funds by the director'. Secured creditors, including Kiwibank and BNZ, were owed $6.7m while more than was $1m was due to preferential creditor Inland Revenue. Unsecured creditors were owed $2.5m. The largest asset quantified as available to be realised was $2.2m in related-party receivables. A day after it entered liquidation, United Steel appointed receivers KhovJones under the terms of a general security agreement to try to recover the $240,007 it was owed. The administrators' reports said the liquidators and receivers were working together to try to sell the business and assets of the company as a going concern. Obelisk's website said it offered crane hire and performed welding, seismic strengthening and fabricated structural steel and provided an explanation for its name. 'An Obelisk represents the enormous power that hides behind the daily decisions made by everyone involved in a team. It also signifies the need for every person to dedicate their efforts to the advancement of a single goal – to ultimately leave behind an achievement that will continue to stand in both metaphorical and literal terms,' the company said. A request for comment to the Culham family, sent through a representative, was not responded to by publication. Matt Nippert is an Auckland-based investigations reporter covering white-collar and transnational crimes and the intersection of politics and business. He has won more than a dozen awards for his journalism – including twice being named Reporter of the Year – and joined the Herald in 2014 after having spent the decade prior reporting from business newspapers and national magazines.

Dawn Meats may buy 65% of Alliance Group for $250 million

The announcement comes after a two-year process to reset and recapitalise Alliance Group's business. Chairman Mark Wynne said Alliance was built by farmers for farmers and had a proud co-operative legacy. 'The process we have undertaken on behalf of our farmer-shareholders to meet our banks' requirements means we are now a much fitter and stronger business. 'However, we need this investment to provide certainty and confidence and ultimately unlock more value for our farmers.' Wynne said the Dawn Meats proposal would secure and strengthen Alliance's future. 'With Dawn Meats' balance sheet power, strength in beef and market access across the United Kingdom and Europe, and Alliance's strength in lamb and market access across China, wider Asia and North America, there are significant commercial and operational synergies at stake – with potential for our shareholders to see the value of their residual 35% stake grow over the long term,' he said. The recapitalisation process explored several options and generated a compelling offer, which the board has unanimously endorsed. The transaction is to be implemented via a scheme of arrangement and will require a minimum of 75% shareholder acceptance of those who vote, and greater than 50% of all shareholders voting 'yes' at a special general meeting in Invercargill in mid-October. If shareholders do not support the proposed investment, the Alliance board would be obligated to enter into a process led by its banking syndicate, which may involve possible asset sales, site closures and further cost-reduction initiatives, the board said. Dawn Meats has a successful operating and investment track record in Ireland, the UK and the European Union, Dawn Meats CEO Niall Browne said. 'Having the ability to grow in partnership with some of New Zealand's leading farmers and create year-round supply for our customers between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres is an opportunity we are deeply committed to and take very seriously,' he said. Dawn Meats is a family-owned business established by three farming families in Waterford, Ireland, in 1980. It has 24 facilities and more than 8000 employees in 10 countries, processing more than 3.5 million sheep and 1 million cattle per annum, with a core annual turnover of more than $5.8 billion. Dawn Meats has a stable of strong and well-recognised brands, including operating the Dunbia brand in the UK, Browne said. The company serves major retailers, manufacturers and food service operators in more than 50 countries. Last year, Allliance reported an after-tax loss of $95.8m for the 12 months to September 30, compared to a loss of $70m in the year prior. Turnover slipped to $1.8b from $2b in 2023. The result reflected the tough global trading conditions, especially for lamb. Jamie Gray is an Auckland-based journalist, covering the financial markets and the primary sector. He joined the Herald in 2011.

Should we regulate YouTube's algorithm to protect children?

Despite its objections, YouTube has now been included in Australia's sweeping social media ban for under-16s after Australia's eSafety Commissioner recommended it be added as it was 'the most frequently cited platform' where children aged 10 to 15 years saw 'harmful content'. But can we regulate an algorithm? Victoria University of Wellington Associate Professor Dr Peter Thompson told The Front Page he thinks there is a 'legitimate concern' with kids encountering this tech. 'There have been a number of studies that have shown the tendency of algorithms, and particularly YouTube ones, to take people further and further down what we might call an 'extremeist pathway'. 'The key thing is that the algorithm is proprietary, it's owned by YouTube, and it's there to keep our eyeballs on the screen because that's how they make their money. They want us online because that's how we get exposed to advertising and marketing opportunities,' he said. When it comes to regulating online behemoths like YouTube, Thompson said he doesn't think we've tried hard enough. 'But, if we take the Christchurch Call, for example, they've put in some incredibly sophisticated software for picking up on problematic content. It can't stop someone from posting terrible material like the terrorist video in the first place, but it picks it up quickly now. 'So, there are things we can do, and I think there are other options out there. We could look at a closer identification of who's using these accounts, and age verification. 'I think labelling is an underrated exercise in media regulation because we know from studies by the BSA and the Classification Office that people really do use those labels. So if something is labelled R18... you have built in systems where someone can only access adult content if they have an account that signals they're an adult. 'That will cut out a very, very large range of potentially harmful exposures. It's not perfect. If you're a terrorist and you're trying to livestream your act of terrorism, you're very unlikely to give advance notice that you've got an R18 video coming up.... But, would we all rest a little more peacefully knowing that our children are more likely to be playing in a safe sandbox with those protections?'
