    Its the ICC all over again. We will see 'one offs' relating to these pipes over and over again.

    Just bad luck aye
    Instant success is a curse and a gift. The curse is you think luck is skill. The gift is you know it can be done. Then it’s a race to turn luck into skill before you lose it all.

    This is worse than the NZICC imo - finishing the job is completely outside of FBU’s control and they are operating in enemy’s territory.

    A product recall would have been catastrophic but at least quantify the damage to FBU. This unlimited uncapped liability is an extremely bad outcome to the negotiations With FBU on the back foot after all the gusto & belligerence about ‘installation’ fault!

    Their strategy will be to now defend their liability against future suitors with the associated risk and costs.

    So I wonder what that aust raider is thinking now, has FBU owned up to this liability as a defensive move against their " unwanted " interest ?

    Not sure about unwanted interest myself as the executives with their ‘out of money’ share options would welcome such a move?

    Meanwhile, unlikely any potential acquirer would contemplate a bid until at least a year’s worth of remedial cost has been quantified to get a sense of the scale of the total damage to FBU.

    Then there’s the Commerce commission’s case against FBU.

    What a freaking mess.
