I mentioned in an earlier post in this topic the company will become a shell like uchumi;now the signs are starting to appear.Material suppliers haven't been paid.
The 38% stake of tow rivers owned by AVIC/CATIC;no money changed hands.Centum converted the amount of money they owed the contractor in unpaid dues to equity to settle the matter.
Contractor of Two Rivers Mall is CATIC whose parent company is AVIC.
Centum also has no room to borrow;debt is at limits and also the high interest rates have curtailed further borrowing

Meanwhile, Centum employees are singing "A billi, a billi...".
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

38% stake gone?? Just like that. Don't be surprised if this was the plan all along or/and someone has some interest in AVIC/CATIC through some intricate Web of shareholding or AVIC/CATIC have yet another agreement with some obscure company to cede 50% of their 38% to them!!

Welcome to Nairobbery!!!

Some senior blue-wazuan warned us to keep off DJ's firms!
And we listened NOT!

this company seemed like a great investment until the discovery of the employee bonus fiasco that means that the company is basically for employees not shareholders.
employees get 1 billion bonus this year, shareholders meanwhile are at -30% in 2015 so far. this compensation scheme was supposedly done to "align incentives" of employees and shareholders - the joke is on the shareholders.
the way the company is structured currently makes it vulnerable to one of those mega scandals which can wipe off shareholders value - as employees are incentivized to inflate asset values to earn huge bonuses.
the earnings of next year will also be likely much less than those of last year. there will be no sale of UAP at 5.2billion possible to get the profit figures to exceed the 7.2 billion which was reported last year.
it's going to be a great AGM to see unhappy shareholders being sold an exciting future by happy employees.

AVIC/CATIC of the Chinese contractors normally shy away from that intricate web of Nairobbery.
In the JKIA Greenfields terminal the powers to be wanted to edge them out because they had refused to give mbuzi and hand over the ksh.56bn contract to Wu Yi who had deposited some mbuzi.
The then KAA managing director Eng Gichuki stood his ground and when the matter went to court;CATIC/Anhui Joint venture won the case.
So CATIC their contracts are normally clean
