@Madebe and all;
What the script dividend by KCB means is that they will give a bonus issue of 1:1 and ksh.1 dividend.
The bonus shares don't qualify for dividends

Never been more wrong!

@murchr,littledove and mlennyama;
The formula is as below;
KCB is to give a dividend of sh.2 per share which translates to ksh.6.05bn if u multiply sh.2 by the number of issued shares of 3.025bn.
Instead they have decided to give ksh.1 in cash and sh.1 in script dividend.
NB:@littledove-shareholder has no choice to choose whether to take script dividend or cash.
The par value of KCB share is ksh.1 and the total number of issued shares is 3.025bn
After giving the ksh.3.025bn as dividend based on sh.1 per share,the balance remaining is ksh.3.025bn.
This ksh.3.025bn instead of giving in cash kcb gives u shares instead.
Divide ksh.3.025bn/sh.1 gives u 3.025bn shares
Divide script dividend of sh.1 by the par value sh.1 gives u 1 which means bonus of 1:1
Etc eTc etC


Wrong, They will determine the conversion price. It won't be 1.00. Possibly a price very close to current market price.

NB:@littledove-shareholder has no choice to choose whether to take script dividend or cash.NOT CORRECT!!!!u have a choice to accept or not!!

Divide ksh.3.025bn/sh.1 gives u 3.025bn shares
Divide script dividend of sh.1 by the par value sh.1 gives u 1 which means bonus of 1:1 Again wrong. A scrip is not a bonus. This is why people need to attend George Mangs training on Young NSE investors
Etc eTc etC


So it will be market rate used on the 3.025b to issue shares or will there be a special rate

@Aguytrying
the sh.1 is the par value of KCB share not mkt value.

@madebe;
Only sh.1 of the sh.2 proposed as dividend will be given in cash.The remainder is in terms of additional shares

Dividend reinvestment plans give shareholders the opportunity to use the cash dividends on their shares to buy more shares in the same company. With a Scrip dividend, new shares are issued by the company, which can be acquired by investors instead of a cash dividend payment.

A rate value per share will be determined to divide by the amount of money i.e ksh.3.025bn to know how many additional shares will be issued and the conversion factor e.g 1 for every 8,7

They will announce the price which will be used to divide with the 3.025 b. But I can tell you for free it won't be 1.00

SIMPLIFIED: if you had 1,000 your dividends will be 2.00*1000*.95= 1,900. you will receive ghalf in cash ie 950/. if they dicided that each share will be 40 bob it means your scrip will be 950/40 which equals to 23 shares. it therefore means that price is the one that will determine if you accept the scrip or take cash dividends...Liberty sold their scrip close to the market price, EABL sold their scrip above the market price and that is how DIAGEO became to own over 50% of EABL
