KK took a 400mn provision in 1H for KPRL manenos. And yet managed 1H 2016 PBT of 1.73 billion shillings versus 1.35 billion shillings year ago. I had estimated 2016 EPS of 2/- but it may fall short by Shs 0.20 = 1.80 coz of the provision. I can live with that.

NO wonder the heavy volumes traded recently.

I love the way expenses are being managed tightly and that lovely drop of finance costs. Oh that's the game changer. Shareholders funds recovering all the time since the disastrous 2012 hedging period. What more can I say.
