This paper describes our participation in a headline-generation challenge by Numeval at Semeval 2024, which focused on numerical reasoning. Our system achieved an overall top numerical accuracy of 73.49% on the task. We explore the system's design choices contributing to this result and analyze common error patterns. Our findings highlight the potential and ongoing challenges of integrat- ing numerical reasoning within large language model-based headline generation.
