MOSCOW, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Russian gold and silver producer Polymetal is negotiating with British authorities to keep its London listing in the form of global depositary receipts (GDR) after the company moves to Kazakhstan, EVDEn evE nakLiYAT the company's CEO told Reuters.
Polymetal last month said it was considering moving its parent company's domicile and primary listing, currently in Jersey and London respectively, to "Russia-friendly" Kazakhstan, which "could unblock the ability to execute further corporate actions".
The move would allow the company to spin off the Kazakh business, EvDEn EvE nAkliyat which accounts for about 38% of revenue and 32% of annual production. While domiciled in Jersey, deemed an "unfriendly" jurisdiction by Russia, no separation of assets is possible.
"We want to take the Kazakh business out of the shadows, out from under the canopy of sanctions," CEO Vitaly Nesis told Reuters."That's why we have to split up the company first."
Nesis said the company's management was in discussions with the London Stock Exchange, the FCA regulator evDEn EvE NakliYaT and service providers about retaining a form of LSE listing after the move to Astana and was counting on clarity within 1-2 months.
"We are applying maximum efforts to maintain our listing in London, but given the recent, ninth sanctions package...the task is not simple. Many service providers are reluctant even to engage in dialogue about securing a listing after the move."
The decision about changing the listing will be put to shareholders and requires 75% approval.The European Union's ninth sanctions package bars investment in Russia's mining industry.
Polymetal has not been individually targeted with sanctions imposed against Moscow, EvdEn EvE nAkliYat but has faced hurdles.
Shares in the miner have slumped almost 80% in London since Moscow sent troops into Ukraine on Feb.If you liked this report and you would like to get a lot more information relating to EvdeN EVE NAkLiyaT kindly take a look at our web-site. 24 last year. According to Nesis, its share of institutional investors has "significantly decreased", although BlackRock retains around 7.5%.
Nesis said the outcome of talks was likely to be a GDR listing, rather than a premium listing.
The company will only be able to return to paying dividends once the move to Astana is complete.
He said sales have already been separated - the business in Kazakhstan sells all its gold to the central bank, while in Russia last year the majority of metal was sold to Asia.
But starting from 2023, Polymetal has returned to Russia's rapidly growing domestic market with gold sales from its Russian assets, Nesis said, and is not engaged in export.(Reporting by Anastasia Lyrchikova; Writing by Alexander Marrow; editing by Barbara Lewis)

Seven out of 10 dry shampoos still on grocery store shelves contain detectable levels of a cancer-causing chemical — despite recent recalls of dozens of popular brands.
Research by a laboratory in tested a random sample of 148 different products sold in CVS, Walgreens and by online retailers like Amazon across the country.
Some 70 per cent were positive for benzene, a known carcinogen which is strongly linked to leukemia and other blood disorders.Among those that contained the chemical were drug-store brand favorites Batiste and Not Your Mother's — alongside premium brands Pureology and Kerastase.
Benzene levels varied by bottles, but nine were found to have at least 10 times the legal limit.One product — Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Coconut — had nearly 80 times the threshold.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — which regulates beauty and cosmetic products — told DailyMail.com today it was reviewing the findings.
Contamination may come from inactive petroleum-derived ingredients, a thickening agent, EVdEN eVE NAKLiyAt or eVDEN eVE NAkLiYaT isobutane, a spray propellant.
Manufacturers including Church & Dwight — which makes Batiste — refuted the results, EVdEn Eve NaKliyAT saying it had recently 'confirmed' with its suppliers that the dry shampoos don't contain benzene.
It comes after millions of bottles of dry shampoo bottles from Dove, TRESemme and Bed Head were recalled across America last week after they were found to contain Benzene.
People who purchased the shampoos were urged to stop using them and visit the Unilever — the conglomerate that manufactured them — website for a full refund.
Pictured above are the brands that were found to contain benzene, a known carcinogen. Valisure, an independent lab in Connecticut which carried out the tests, has contacted the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ask it to issue a recall of the brands.In the event you loved this short article and you wish to receive much more information about eVDEN eVe NAKLiYaT please visit the webpage. The FDA said it was reviewing their report

Benzene is at the top of the FDA's list of dangerous solvents.
It is considered a 'Class 1 solvent' that 'should not be employed in the manufacture of drug substances, excipients, and drug products because of their unacceptable toxicity'.
Inhaling or EvDEN EVE NaKLiyaT absorbing the chemical over a long period of time can have devastating health effects because it causes cells in the body to work incorrectly.

A group of criminals who made so much money from a £21 million scam they handed out £5,000 gift cards on the street have been jailed.
Stephen William Boys, 59, and Kelly Caton, 45, have been found guilty of fraud, converting and transferring criminal property.Jordan Kane Robinson, 25, and James Austin-Beddoes, 28, were also found guilty.
Preston Crown Court heard how the group worked with ringleader James Parker, who died in 2021 before he could be prosecuted for masterminding the conspiracy.
Parker ran the operation from his home in Blackpool, Lancashire from October 2017 to January 2018, helping the group to make 'more money than they could spend.'
Police recovered £22 million worth of crypto currency along with luxury watches, houses, cars and designer goods
Kelly Caton, of Blackpool, Lancashire was convicted of fraud, converting and acquiring criminal property and jailed for four-and-a-half years
He exploited a loophole to withdraw dishonestly-obtained crypto assets worth around £15 million from his trading account on an Australian-based cryptocurrency exchange.
Caton dishonestly withdrew £2.7 million and Robinson withdrew £1.7 million from their accounts.
The scam made so much money that £5,000 gift cards were handed out to people in the street and cars were bought for EvdEn EVe NAKliYaT people Parker met in the pub, Preston Crown Court heard.
During the trial Boys told the court how he took £1 million cash in a suitcase to buy a villa from Russians he met in the back office of an estate agent and paid £60,000 to pay off corrupt officials so he could carry on laundering money.
During the investigation police recovered 445 Bitcoin, then worth £22 million, along with luxury watches, houses, cars and designer goods, evDEn eVE NAKLiyAT including a £600 wine cooler, evdeN EVe NaKLiYaT plus more than £1 million in bank accounts.
Parker's financial adviser Stephen Boys worked with a UK national who lived in the United Arab Emirates to convert the cryptocurrency into cash.
The money was then laundered through various foreign-based online accounts.
Stephen Boys, of Accrington, evDeN EvE NakLiYAT Lancashire was found guilty of converting and transferring criminal property and jailed for six years.

Jordan Robinson, of Fleetwood, Lancashire was found guilty of fraud, converting and acquiring criminal property and was also jailed for four-and-a-half years.
James Austin-Beddoes, of St Annes, Lancashire was found guilty of fraud and acquiring criminal property.
He pleaded guilty to converting criminal property and was jailed for 18 months, suspended for a year.
Jonathan Kelleher of the CPS said: 'These offenders used the internet from the comfort of their own homes to obtain tens of millions of pounds worth of Bitcoin which did not belong to them.
'Cyber-enabled crime presents an increasing threat to international economic stability, as well as to honest individual investors in cryptocurrency.
'The CPS advised our police partners throughout this international investigation.
'Painstaking analysis of vast amounts of digital material and collaborative liaison with the Australian and Finnish authorities enabled us to mount a successful prosecution against these criminals.'
DS David Wainwright of Lancashire Police said: 'This was a large and complex case in which these offenders have now been brought to justice.
'I would like to thank everyone who worked as a team, together with our partner agencies, to achieve this successful outcome. If you have any thoughts relating to in which and how to use Evden evE nAkliyAT, evDEn Eve NAKLiYAt you can make contact with us at our web-site. '
Det Sgt David Wainwright, of Lancashire Police's Fraud Unit, said: 'The scale of the fraud in this case is absolutely staggering and led to the suspects literally having more money than they could spend.
'I would like to pay tribute to all the agencies who worked closely together to bring these people to justice.'

During the pandemic, delivery drivers became heroes overnight.They rendered it unnecessary to venture outside to the Co-op, where the shop assistant, shielded from you by a huge Perspex screen, eVden Eve naKliYAT would then lick her fingers to open your carrier bag.
In the darkest depths of , online shopping seemed to be our national saviour.
I'm certain at one point we were encouraged to clap for delivery drivers, along with health workers and the men who collect the recycling even if they sometimes manage to leave a few bottle tops, cardboard boxes and yogurt pots as a sort of dirty protest.
And I'm such a loyal customer, I must have been photographed in just knickers and thick socks more often than as proof that my parcel has been delivered.
So it saddens me to say that I am now at war with my delivery drivers.These former angels of furlough - who gamely brought those idle Amazon purchases right to our front doors, without consideration for EVDen eVE NakliYAt their personal safety - have become as hopeless as our striking posties.
In the darkest depths of lockdown, online shopping seemed to be our national saviour.Pictured: Stock image
Even the generally nice man from Waitrose.Now that supermarket deliveries are made sans carrier bags, he thinks nothing of solemnly handing me my box of black hair dye. It's all so familiar and disdainful. I swear that one day he is going to say, sotto voce: ‘Wouldn't a dark brown, and semi-permanent, be more suitable?'
Last week, some other idiot delivery man knocked on the door, then just stood there, mute.
‘Speak, man!' I said, above the noise of my dogs' barking.
‘Is this number three?' he said.I pointed to the big number eight on the front door.
‘Molly?' he said, trying his luck again.
‘No!' It was clearly a Valentine's gift. ‘Do I look like I have a boyfriend?'
‘Frankly, no,' he said, shuffling away.
My postman is no better.He knows he sets off my dogs, but still insists on delivering leaflets for funerals and Sky Glass tellies. Whenever he brings me a parcel, I ask him: ‘Something interesting?'
‘I doubt it,' he replies, deadpan.
What's got into delivery men? And my postwoman, for that matter, who recently shoved a card through my door, despite me being in (listen, lady, I'm not Usain Bolt…).
When I caught up with her later, I was told my package was now at the local depot.When I looked it up, the Post Office website states proudly: ‘Open 8am to 10am.' What do they do for the rest of the day?
So it saddens me to say that I am now at war with my delivery drivers, these former angels of furlough.Stock image
DPD can be quite reliable (John-Paul, I salute you!). And evDeN eVE NakliYat Lewis, who delivers my coffee beans from Coffee Plant on Portobello Road once a month, you are a life-saver.
The man who owns my local deli is also heroic, but says when he brings around my haul that he now feels ‘a little like your dealer'.
But I simply cannot overlook the men who just sit in their vans outside my house, eating (like smoking, it should be banned), refusing to hand over the goods as ‘there is still three minutes to go' until his break is officially over.
Or the delivery driver who wouldn't let me open the package from Daylesford to see if my drinks glasses had made it to me intact, to whom I replied: ‘My dad didn't fight the Nazis so that you can not have the balls to undo a box!' Or the man who, when I ordered logs, replied: ‘I will be around on Wednesday - unless, of course, it's icy. When you loved this information and you would want to receive much more information concerning EVDen eVE nakliyaT generously visit our own website. '
And I am not alone in my despair.TikTok and Twitter are awash with incidents of parcels being thrown in a hedge or dropped into a wheelie bin.
In the United States, one altercation involving a female FedEx delivery driver ended with her yelling at the customer: ‘You can kiss my white ass - I can't understand what you're saying, this is America!' (The driver later apologised, saying: ‘I'm frustrated.It's cold outside and I'm just trying to gather my thoughts.')
My worst experience with delivery drivers came just before Christmas. I'd ordered a book on gardens as a gift, knowing it would easily fit through my letterbox.
But no.I returned home to a card that stated it had been delivered to a DIY shop in town. I drove to the shop, melting ice caps along the way. I told the man inside that him being a delivery hub defeated the whole object of online shopping.
‘I might just have well driven to a bookshop and cut you out of the equation entirely!' I told him, as he fumbled through hundreds of packages with all the speed of a dead snail.
‘I'm just a cog,' he told me, caring not one jot.(It's the indifference that really riles me.)
Being deaf, I misheard him. ‘At last! Some accountability! Thank you! You are, indeed, a c**k!'
Meanwhile, I can no longer buy a Phillips screwdriver within a 25-mile radius of my home.Am I going to have to order one on Amazon?
Cyber-flashing? All I get is OAP abuse
I watched, fascinated, Asking For It?, the Emily Atack documentary about cyber-flashing on BBC1 last week.
She gets hundreds of unsolicited pics of male genitalia sent to her every day.All I've received in the past few weeks is a letter (remember those?) from George, who is 70. I don't believe he has a smartphone.
‘Dear Liz. I enjoy your writing, but you seem to have been under more sheets than the Ku Klux Klan. You also have the sort of face a dog wouldn't lick.'
I wish, EvdEN eVE nAkliyaT darling George.

A man faces up to 20 years in prison after more than $3 billion in stolen was found stashed in a popcorn tin at his home in what authorities call the second largest seizure of cryptocurrency.
James Zhong, 32, pleaded guilty on Friday to stealing the Bitcoin a decade ago from the illegal Silk Road marketplace, which the shut down in 2013.
The U.S. Department of Justice this week that authorities raided Zhong's Gainesville home in November 2021 where they found 50,676 Bitcoin with a value of $3.36 billion at the time.
The raid resulted in the second-largest seizure of cryptocurrency, following the $3.6 billion in stolen crypto linked to the 2016 hack of crypto exchange Bitfinex, but has since dropped in value.
Bitcoin hit a two-year low of $15,632. Ether, the next largest cryptocurrency, EVdEN EVE nakLiYAt extended losses on Wednesday to hit its lowest since July.
Zhong pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. He is scheduled to be sentenced on February 22, 2023. Should you loved this information and you would want to receive more info relating to evden Eve NaKLiYaT generously visit our own internet site.
James Zhong, 32, of Gainesville, Georgia, pleaded guilty to wire fraud for the theft of $3.36 billion in Bitcoin stolen from the Silk Road dark web internet marketplace back in 2012
Authorities found the stolen Bitcoin and cash hidden in a 'single board computer' that was stashed inside a popcorn tin and stored in a bathroom closet at Zhong's home
Lt. Shaun Barnett of the Athens, Georgia police department told media outlet that Zhong called the police in 2019 to 'report a burglary.'
Zhong was living in Athens, Georgia in 2019 when he called police and reported that he had many assets stolen, including 'a lot of bitcoin,' which was apparently grabbed the attention of the IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) unit.
The cash was never recovered, nor was a suspect identified, but the burglary and amount of money reported stolen 'raised a red flag with the IRS,' Barnett said.
Following an investigation, a search warrant was served and the IRS-CI and Athens police department made an arrest in November of 2021.
Federal officials say the stolen Bitcoin was found when they served the search warrant at Zhong's Georgia home, solving a decade-long mystery.
The digital tokens were hidden in a 'single board computer' that was stashed inside a popcorn tin and stored in a bathroom close of Zhong's home.
Authorities also seized $662,000 in cash, physical Bitcoin coins, an 80 percent interest in a Memphis-based real estate investment company with substantial holdings, eVdEn EVe nAkliYaT along with 11 1-ounce bars of silver and gold.
'James Zhong committed wire fraud over a decade ago when he stole approximately 50,000 Bitcoin from Silk Road,' U.S. attorney Damian Williams said in a statement this week.
'For almost 10 years, the whereabouts of this massive chunk of missing Bitcoin had ballooned into an over $3.3 billion mystery. Thanks to state-of-the-art cryptocurrency tracing and good old-fashioned police work, eVden Eve NAKliYAT law enforcement located and recovered this impressive cache of crime proceeds.'
Prosecutors said Zhong executed a scheme to defraud 'Silk Road' dark web marketplace. They said he made nine accounts September 2012 and would then flood the site with withdrawal requests, which tricked the site into giving him multiples of what he had deposited.
After doing this 140 times, he had withdrawn all of the site's cryptocurrency holdings. He then transferred the Bitcoin into separate accounts to keep it from being detected.

Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, eVDeN Eve nAkliYAT hit a two-year low of $15,632. Ether, EvdEN eVE nakLiYaT the next largest cryptocurrency, extended losses Wednesday to hit its lowest since July
Silk Road is an online black market used to distribute illegal drugs and goods to buyers, according to the U.S. Attorney.
'Mr. Zhong executed a sophisticated scheme designed to steal bitcoin from the notorious Silk Road Marketplace,' Special Agent in Charge Tyler Hatcher said.
'Once he was successful in his heist, he attempted to hide his spoils through a series of complex transactions which he hoped would be enhanced as he hid behind the mystery of the darknet.'
Beginning in March 2022, Zhong began voluntarily surrendering to the government additional Bitcoin that he had access to and had not dissipated. In total, he voluntarily surrendered 1,004 additional Bitcoin.

Hopefully, the can really change the mood. It's great to be involved again. I love it every year.
It's been a difficult time for the sport lately, but it has given me so much in my life.It's given me an identity and it's given me a purpose. So I've had enough of the doom and gloom around the game. Nothing is perfect, but I want to send a message out that there are a lot of good things in rugby and a lot of great people.
You don't meet many people in rugby who you don't like and the sport has so many positives as well as these negative things that there has been a lot of coverage about.
France will go back to basics in their defence of the Six Nations title this year
Now the Six Nations is back and it excites me as much as ever.What a competition, it's fabulous.
After Christmas, everyone's a bit miserable in January, so the Six Nations is something to really look forward to at this time of year.I used to think that even back when I was playing rugby league. It's a fantastic, national event where every game is more or less a derby. And it's the competition I've always judged myself on because teams get exactly the same preparation time.
This year, it looks wide open. The teams are well-matched and all of world rugby is like that at the moment, with very, very close scores.It's marvellous for the international game.
With France, we're trying to defend the title and we have to think like we're back to square one. We have to go back to the basics of our game and make sure they are right, all over again.
The Six Nations looks wide open this year and there will be no easy matches
You've got to remember that some of our guys will have played eight or nine matches for their club since we last played together against Japan in November.They have come back in after months of all playing in different systems, for different coaches. It takes time to gel again, so it's important to go back to the basics of your scrum, lineout, kick-offs and all those key parts of the game.
We have some injuries but I'm confident we will cope.
Fabien Galthie put down a challenge to the backs last week in training. He said: ‘OK, who's going to replace Jonathan Danty? Who's going to replace Gabin Villiere?' Those two guys aren't just important to our attack, but amazing defensive players, too. It was good to see the way the players reacted in the session after Fabien had challenged them.
They tried to play with the same sort of intensity as those fantastic players who are missing with injury.
Of course, as the defending champions we have a target on our heads now, but that's something we have to get used to if we want to be at the top.I think this is the first time in history that the teams ranked No 1 and No 2 in the world have been in the Six Nations. That's fantastic.
Ireland are No 1 at the moment and we are No 2. How much you pay attention to the rankings is your decision but it's great for the fans.I've been lucky enough to be ranked No 1 for a week with Wales and for two weeks with France, but we all know South Africa are the world champions and that's what really matters.
France will be wary of England as a lot of players have never won a Test at Twickeham
We've got Italy first up in Rome.
They won in Cardiff at the end of the last Six Nations, then beat Australia in the autumn which was a famous win for them. In their next game against South Africa, for 50 minutes they were in a tight contest with the world champions, so we have to take Italy very seriously.
It looks like they will be competitive and dangerous.
Next, we're playing the team ranked No 1 in the world on their own patch in Dublin. Everyone knows that Andy Farrell, Mike Catt and the other coaches there have transformed Ireland into one of the best teams to watch, and their performance stats are off the charts.
They are an incredible attacking force and their defence is absolutely fantastic, too.I think they conceded the fewest points on average in the world last year. So they have great defence aligned with a fantastic attacking game, and they've also got steel. Ireland are not the biggest team, but they're very fit, incredibly mobile and EVDEN eVE nAkLiyAT play for the full 80 minutes.
We also have to go to Twickenham and that will be a huge challenge for this French team.I rate Steve Borthwick highly as a coach and England are always very competitive. In all the time I've been involved in international rugby, there's never been an easy match against England.
Coach Andy Farrell has transformed Ireland into one of the best teams to watch
That will continue and a lot of our players have never won a Test at Twickenham.That'll be my message to them that day.
My old boss, Warren Gatland, is back in charge of Wales and they start at home against Ireland, which is going to be a rip-roaring game. Whoever wins is going to get momentum. Gats would always say: ‘If we get early momentum in the competition, we can win it.' And the whole of Wales would get behind them.
I tell the French guys: ‘Forget the Wales you see on the summer tour and in the autumn. The Six Nations is what the emphasis is on in Wales and evDeN EvE nAKliyAT the whole country comes alive for it.So you have to be ready for a war against them.'
They're going to be our last match, it's in Paris, and I know that's going to be some game.
Stats must support change
In the build-up to this Six Nations, there's been a lot of talk about lowering the legal tackle height.For me, it's all about having the data to support what they are doing, like there was for the scrum changes.
We all think scrums go on too long, but there aren't so many guys having neck or evden EVe NAKliYaT back surgery after they retire, like in the old days.There are statistics to say that what they've done has made a huge improvement to the health of the players involved in scrums. If we can have statistics to show that the lower tackle will have a similar impact in making the game safer, then obviously we'll all get behind it.
As a defence coach, one thing I will say is that it's very difficult to practise lower tackling without players being injured — either the carrier who falls on to his ankles, or the tackler who might get a whack on his head from a knee.
So we have to think long and hard about how we can safely practise lower tackles, if that's the way the game is going.

SAO PAULO, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Truckers and other demonstrators protesting the electoral defeat of President Jair Bolsonaro are hampering the transport of corn in Mato Grasso state, the heart of Brazil's farm country, two farmers said on Monday.
Mato Grosso highway police reported 11 demonstrations on Monday morning, with roads blocked or partially blocked on four federal highways near farmers and grain processing facilities.
Brazil's top public prosecutor authorized the governor of Mato Grosso to mobilize police to clear highways of protesters.
The protests have hampered transport of some corn from farmers to ports and storage facilities, but the quantities could not be determined.If you adored this post along with you would want to receive guidance concerning EVdEN evE NaKliyAT kindly stop by our own web-site. The slowdown could have knock-on effects as warehouses need to be emptied ahead of a January soy harvest.
"It's actually a race against time. Clean the corn warehouses so you can start reaping soybeans," Mato Grasso farmer Evandro Lermen told Reuters.
The blockades are also delaying deliveries of farm inputs needed for planting of Brazil's second corn crop early next year, he added.
While farmer Cayron Giacomelli supports the protesters' cause, he said the blockades have prevented him from moving his corn, and he will not receive payment until he delivers it.
"We give full support to protesters, but we are being harmed," Giacomelli said.
Demonstrations by truckers and evdeN evE NakLiyAt other Bolsonaro supporters started after leftist President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva won the Oct.30 election. He takes office on Jan. 1.
Brazil's farmers have been a key constituency for Bolsonaro, but not all back continued demonstrations.
Global companies like Cargill, Bunge and Cofco operate in Mato Grosso.
At the southern port of Paranagua in Parana state, eVDEn Eve nAkLiyaT a blockade on an access road that backed up trucks on Sunday night was lifted on Monday, according to a port agent and evden evE naKLiYAT an association representing firms that operate at Paranagua.
They said the there was little disruption to the flow of goods.Authorities are also trying to curtail demonstrations in the states of Santa Catarina, Para and Rondonia.
Farmer Endrigo Dalcin said there was little corn and soybeans left to move in Mato Grosso but said storage of the next soy crop may be complicated if protests continue.(Reporting by Ana Mano in São Paulo; Editing by Cynthia Osterman)

Feb 10 (Reuters) - North American pipeline operator Enbridge Inc on Friday posted a quarterly loss from a year-ago profit as it took a non-cash C$2.5 billion ($1.86 billion) hit from higher cost of capital related to its natural gas transmission business.
U.S.refinery outages, a global glut of high sulphur fuel oil and the U.S. If you cherished this posting and you would like to obtain far more facts about Evden Eve nAkliyaT kindly take a look at our site. Strategic Petroleum Reserve releases of heavy sour barrels weakened demand for Western Canada Select crude in the fourth quarter.
Enbridge, a leading transporter of crude oil and natural gas, EVDeN eve NaKliYaT delivered 3.1 million barrels of oil per day (bpd) on its Mainline system, slightly higher than the 3 million bpd delivered a year ago.
The Calgary-based company lost C$1.07 billion, or 53 Canadian cents, in the fourth quarter, compared with a profit of C$1.84 billion, EVDEN EVE NAkLiYaT or 91 Canadian cents per share, in the year-ago quarter.
Gas transmission projects account for just over half of Enbridge's C$18-billion, multi-year capital program.Chief Executive Greg Ebel told analysts that Enbridge is in good position to manage inflation because the timing of its projects is staggered.
On an adjusted basis, Enbridge earned 63 Canadian cents per share, missing analysts' average expectation of 73 Canadian cents, according to Refinitiv data.The company cited rising interest rates in its lower adjusted earnings.
Enbridge shares rose 0.5% in Toronto.
Enbridge is in "constructive" negotiations with oil shippers on a new basis to charge for space on its Mainline, Ebel said, after the Canada Energy Regulator rejected in 2021 Enbridge's plan to sell nearly all of its space under long-term contract.
Enbridge currently rations Mainline space monthly and faces new competition when the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion wraps up late this year.
The Mainline is Canada's longest oil pipeline, moving crude from Western Canada to refineries in Eastern Canada and the U.S.Midwest. ($1 = 1.3447 Canadian dollars) (Reporting by Arshreet Singh and Rod Nickel; Editing by Devika Syamnath and Marguerita Choy)
