ASIC held documents concerning Magnis Energy Technologies (ASX:MNS) and HotCopper forum discussions, largely consisting of internal correspondence and online forum screenshots. The materials indicate ASIC was investigating complaints related to Magnis and examining HotCopper user activity, specifically attempting to identify a user with the moniker "Padmore" who was understood to be a key shareholder and supporter of the company. Internal emails from March-April 2024 show ASIC's Professional Standards Officer querying colleagues about the user's identity in connection with an ongoing complaint investigation. Additional documents include HotCopper forum posts discussing Magnis production announcements and general company discussion threads, along with references to an October 2023 facility tour. Substantial portions of the emails were redacted under various exemptions, limiting visibility into the specific regulatory concerns or outcomes of ASIC's inquiry.
