Simon EvansSenior reporter
Shares in bus and ferry operator Kelsian plunged 25 per cent on Monday after it revealed a cost blowout on construction of new ferry infrastructure on Kangaroo Island in South Australia, and extra spending on projects in NSW.
Kelsian, which was formerly known as SeaLink until a name change in 2021, stunned investors by outlining that it would be spending about $90 million more than expected on various projects in 2024-25.
