EPS with the newly issued shares after rights issue is likely to be in the range of 1.4-1.6.
Working with the lower band of 1.4,the dividend is likely to be about 0.35.
At a P/E of 8-9 the share is likely to be trading in the price ranges of 11-12 post rights and after release of Full Year 2015/2016 trading results

In this bear market, a PE of 4.5 - 7 would be safer. Still it's a prime time to pick up this stock. That in mind, 10/ could be reached. That's an upside of almost 40% from its current price


@MadDoc, could you kindly enlighten us on what fundamentals or ratios you are using to arrive at a 10/ valuation

I'm using Ericsson's EPS range. So i,ve decided to calculate it myself. If KENGEN was to maintain the 15% profit growth as in 2015, the EPS actually comes to 2. However, Let's be conservative and use 1.7.
1.7*6=10.2

Ive used an eps of 6 as a middle ground.
10 isn't very certain. And after all stocks are built on opportunities and risks

Trading at Rights price 6.55. Lets see what happens when rights are traded in the market from 23rd May.


I feel trapped by this share. Got 15k shares, avg buying price of 9.5... No money to take up my rights in full (circa 200K!!!), Now advice a friend who wants the best way forward... 1) To avoid the rights and average down post-rights? 2) to take up full rights??? with no clear exit plan 3) To just do nothing, let the shares be diluted, but hang in there for a very very long time, probably to be inherited by the kids...

option 4 you could sale your rights and make a few coins awaiting dilution. say you are selling off 15k rights at 6.55, you could make something as you wait to onboard again after dilution and stability as predicted above.

i still expect plenty of untaken rights giving those selling their rights a hard time

This is my view all along, its not easy for a shareholder to triple their investment if they have a significant stake. Unless some institutional investors or larger shareholders come in to save the day, it will be hard to raise 8bn. and to add insult to this is the share has been on a decline. in 2013-2014 they could even have done this at 10.00 and issue fewer shares. if only

Rising volumes with falling prices.
RSI, Bollinger bands all pointing to overselling.


@sparkly, hope you are holding out long term. We still have the Oct 2016 date when we review KEGN again. My target is 4/- with the rights issue thrown into the dustbin!


Got myself some more at 5.50 yesterday. My bid for another lot at 5.00 today didn't go through.

I keep on buying as the sellers capitulate. I have a feeling that rights will be priced way above 5.50 so i am having my rights right now.


Time for review.
Doubled my holdings at 5.50 and thereabouts. Since the rights price is confirmed at 6.55, I will only be taking half of my allotted rights.

Not keen to allocate too much of my networth in Kengen so i will sell the remaining half of the rights in the market.
Life is short. Live passionately.
