Virgin shares fell by nearly 6% on the news that the airline could lose more than halve its predicted first half year profits due to the floods in Australia.
Air New Zealand acquired a 14.99% stake in Virgin Blue last week at a price of A44c per share, worth A$145 million. The slump in the carrier’s share price however by 5.95 to A40c significantly decreased the value of Air NZ stake.
