Unlisted Waipara Hills Wine Estates reported a $766,000 start-up loss to December. The company said it was tracking in line with prospectus forecast of an $864,000 June-year loss. A profit is forecast for the 2004 year.
Broadway Industries posted a $707,000 profit for the December half-year on turnover of $19.8 million. No dividend will be paid.
New Zealand Refining made $36.5 million in the December year, down from $69.4 million in 2000 when strong margins and a high US dollar boosted results. Some issues stemming from last year's "dirty diesel" affair, which have cost the company $6.5 million, have yet to be resolved.

Tourism operator Shotover Jet's December first-half profit rose 52% to $882,000, largely as a result of cost controls and the "back to basics" focus. Visitor numbers were expected to improve in the second half and the company predicted a "solid" full-year result.
