Mediocre reporting. To a bank early payment of a loan is not a benefit. It's a disaster.

As an investor in Stanbic, I would have preferred that all the money from CDC go into the core business of ARM, strengthening the business and ensuring a stream of interest income.

If I was a minority shareholder in ARM, I would be disappointed by the dilution by CDC. Equity is dilutive and the cost of equity is also higher than cost of debt.

Stanbic are Happy to have gotten their money now. Strengthening the business and seeing the returns takes time and going by the way ARM was performing that loan they were going to have difficulties repaying

the best thing is that finance cost will come down hence freeing more cash into core business.

ARM needs to go win market share, grow volumes, increase efficiency to compete effectively in the crowded cement market... Not to save costs.

Mombasa cement seems to have edged out Rhino cement in the 32.5 strength category in some parts of the country where Rhino was dominant..

Not at all if the debtor is struggling. Stanbic just has to find a new home for the money.
There are too many opportunities all around. Open your eyes and maybe you'll spot one

If it takes dilution so as to have a healthy balance sheet,so be it.Share price will almost always reflect the fundamentals of a company "in the fullness of time"

In hind sight, Paunrana says the firm should not have built a big plant in Tanzania. “There were too many headwinds that created a perfect storm. But there is no point in regretting. CDC put in $140 million just last year. How could an army of experts from London also get it wrong? Nobody could predict this.”

Pretty sad that ARM had to let the fertilizer business go. Paunrana had a great vision for it.

Good read.From my goggles point of view,what Paunrana is telling Wanjiku is that sh.13 does not reflect the value of ARM given the assets it holds.
