@thedeal - Some numbers need revising...

the main problem with kplc is the management aspect.....now with GOK having majority control kplc cant raise elec prices as they wish coz of lobbying by mpigs and businesses.....most likely the profitability of kplc will be sacrificed for the good of the kenyan economy....and then there is the aspect of appointment of cronies as directors and it will be eaten to the bone....thus goes the story of public utilities
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

@the deal thank you for your analysis on KPLC but dont you think your analysis on the price target is a little modest.. I say this because you have used a P/E of 12.2 while:

Industrial Sector P/E = 16.06
Kengen(peer) P/E = 19

@sheep please give G.O.K a chance... they made it pretty clear that the reason for raising their stake was not exercise control but to access cheap development loans which means less interest payments..

Another thing is that K.P.L.C is allowed by law to make a return on Assets of 10-15% meaning with its current asset base of 80 billion it can announce a profit before tax of 8-12 billion and the MPIGS can't do nothing about which is an EPS of 3-4.5...

I wonder what the value of their assets will be in 5 years????

hahaha sorry folks i mearnt 3.7 Billion PAT....divide that with 1.7 Billion new shares you get an EPS of 2.18...yes Madam Guru my price target is to modest but its due to the following reasons
1. KPLC is inefficient
2. All this lawsuits from this new meters
3. KPLC only posts record profits when everyone in Kenya is crying of high power bills

Jerry i cant tell u that i´m no fortune teller.

I have an answer for each one of your reasons:
1. INEFFICIENCY: for the last 8 years it has been trying to handle this problem and its starting to pay off... Thats why in 2010 they were able to record increased profit even after lowering electricity prices for the year.

2 FAULTY METERS: @the deal you have got this one wrong.. The complaints were on the old meters and connections which were badly connected.. THERE HAVE BEEN ZERO COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE NEW METERS...

3. RECORD PROFITS AND HIGH POWER BILLS: Well they are justified to increase power bills to maintain adequate profit margins...

And are you aware that k.p.l.c's balance sheet is now way healthier than kengens???

Are you aware that kengen faces increasing competition from wind and coal and sugar suppliers of power in the near future whereas K.P.L.C will still be a monopoly when we've all left earth??

Are you aware G.O.K owns 70% of kengen whereas it owns 50.1% of K.P.L.C

so after all this what justifies kengen trading at P/E of 19 and K.P.L.C a P/E of 12???
