The problem with the delay in announcing the Capital Restructuring is it depresses the price for those who want to sell...

On the other hand, for me & @mwanahisa, it means we can expect a better 'conversion rate' as KPLC's fortunes increase in 2011 with additional connections, increased sales & better management 9lower losses, etc)...

If KPLC does a 20:1 split... then we have shares at 12/- which can rapidly rise to 18/- (similar to KenGen) as long as earnings keep pace...

They are good results but not great. I am a little dissapointed to be honest, especially by the dividend. I had presumed that the increase of the interim div from Kshs 2 to 3 signalled an intention to increase the full year dividend. I had anticipated that the final dividend would be Kshs 7 to round up the figure to Kshs 10.
Same here but my gut tells me the reason was to keep a lid on anti-KPLC sentiments including COTU (strike threats) & customer/consumer backlash...

Also KPLC is going for a Rights Issue sooner than later... So why pay a higher dividend when you ask the same shareholders for money back?

IMHO, KPLC should have paid a 'small' bonus just to assuage shareholders & withheld the dividend... Or pay a Scrip Dividend


@vvs can you please explain what a Scrip dividend is... Thanks
