Relationships between a husband and wife are regulated first by the wife then by the government.


@sparkly,can u pliz share your current outstanding portfolio.@aguy said you are also a long termer.
Debt ridden companies are not ideal for long term investors.When a company collapse and is liquidated,creditors are paid first while ordinary shareholders are paid last.
KK liabilities are kshs 9.1 bilion while shareholders equity is kshs 9.2 bilion.Thats very thin margin indeed.Creditors are dangerous rivals to the shareholders.Infact they prey on shareholders.Uchumi survived liquidation on court injunction.
If kk is liquidated today,creditors will be paid equally with shareholders from the total assets of kshs 18.7 bilion.

KK current return on equity=13%
KK current return on assets=6%

The management needs to do more to grow shareholders return.They should also look at growing returns on assets.Avoid idle assets and invest in profitable assets.

Read kk financial statements from 2010 upto 2016 to see the ongoing recovery in shareholders funds and sale of idle assets

@Ebenyo

Shareholder Funds = Assets - Liabilities so if KK's Shareholder Funds are 9.2bn then KK is a-OK.

Then look at the type of Assets and Liabilities. KK has "inventory" which is easily liquidated. Most of KK's Inventory = Fuel.

Offset ALL Liabilities with Current Assets to get a better picture. Then there are "long-term" assets eg stations, etc that can be sold in a liquidation but take time.

@vvs,its true kk books are currently very healthy.My opinion was generalised across a number of firms here.Just as @ Aguy has mentioned,i dont know what the situation was 5 or 10 years back in kk.My comments are only based on the current HY results which i have a copy.
According to the current debt to equity ratio of kk,the situation in those years was definitely not cool.We must congratulate the current management for a job well done.Lets hope they carry on the good job ahead.

NB
The board should consider increasing dividends to atleast kshs 0.50 per share.
School fees ya high school na university inatungoja huko mbele.We need good dividend yield.
The current dividend yield is low and its the only reason im not in this good ship.I hope ohanna is reading this.

@Ebenyo

Look at the 1H 2016 Balance Sheet again. Forget the history. Look to the future. The Shareholder Funds are healthy and growing. The KES 400mn provision for the claim vs KPRL shows that KK/Ohana is confident about the future.

Dividend: No, KK should pay down debt first OR expand profitably OR enter new lines of business that are potentially profitable. If you want a consistent & reliable source of "school fees" then buy bonds. Or perhaps mature firms like BAT or SCBK.

BTW, today I filled up at a very busy KK station. There was a 2/- discount on fuel + 2/- K-Card discount = 4/- discount. I am sure the station is also making money. So what margin is KK enjoying that it can "give away" 4/- at that station?

My kk is up 25% in this bear market, im sure guys find our loyalty to kk bordering on insanity, this performance is vindication. I am pleasantly surprised. Should it drop to 9.xy I will not hesitate to increase my holding. The only regret when a good share rallies is, you wish you bought more.

KenolKobil and Castrol to build lubricant plant

KenolKobil and British industrial and automotive lubricants manufacturer Castrol have partnered to construct a $15 million (Sh1.5 billion) lubricants factory in Mombasa. KenolKobil sought the partnership believing it to be a cheaper option than importing the lubricants from South Africa, where it has been obtaining the merchandise from. The oil Company’s Chief Executive Officer David Ohana confirmed the partnership and adding the budget for the mega project has already been approved by Castrol’s management. “The Castrol head office has approved the budget and the project is due to commence,” Ohana said during the release of KenolKobil half-year results last Thursday. The construction of the plant is set to begin by mid-2017. Ohana said the factory will have a monthly output of 1,000 tonnes of lubricants and will strengthen KenolKobil’s standing in the local petroleum sub sector.

Sell now eat 25% gain enter low at 8/- where I am patiently waiting. You'll be shocked to see me enter low at the same price you joined two years ago. Considering time value of money I'll be richer than you combined in the maximum bull run.
