0123 GMT - Coal miner Whitehaven is reluctant to provide quarterly data on provisional pricing and quality adjustments, clouding the outlook on realized prices, Macquarie analysts say in a note. The analysts have an outperform rating on Whitehaven and say they are constructive on the stock, especially after a 1H earnings result that beat market expectations. But "realizations for coal prices are still a key watch," with management's reluctance to share more data making Macquarie cautious about price realizations going forward, the analysts say. Macquarie has an A$8.50 target on the stock, which is down 0.4% at A$5.63/share. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
