The price of mismanagement.
The company is joining the likes of Uchumi, Mumias sugar,east africa portland Cement

Oh yes....good thing this one is a guaranteed bail out because of the monopoly factor. It cannot shut down. Waiting for Ksh6 to print then i start jumping in then sell as soon as it hits 10.


All the best as you time the market. I might also jump in if it falls to KShs 2.

Hidden in all the accounting mumbo jumbo is the fact that Kenya Power spent a lot of money rolling out street lights in major towns and connecting consumers for #GoKDelivers election campaigns and they have not been paid. A part of Eurobond 2 will be given to Kenya Power to correct it's accounts and full year results will be looking better.

A huge chunk of that 35.90 is based off over-priced poles supplied by Arap Mashamba. In the open/transparent market they may be worth just 20% of the stated value!



Talk of the challenge of finding undervalued stocks in Nse!


With a P.E. of 2.62, EPS of 3.07 and Dividend yield of 6.21%, return on equity of 11.53 % vs industry 8%, and a Gross margin 0f 27%, i believe Kenya power is undervalued. Indeed based on the NAV of 35.90 buying today is like paying 20 cents for one dollar. Furthermore, assuming they will pay a conservative 4% dividend every year, you stand a chance retiring very comfortably courtesy of KP

The numbers speak of this company very favorably but the mismanagement of funds will keep pulling it down. The good thing is that it will never collapse since it is guaranteed a govt bail out. Its a buy when the dividend yield is above 5% but its certainly not much of a growth stock. My plan is buy at 8bob and below, sell once it hits 11 then wait for it to get back down. Kengen is a better for growth purposes

However, the capital gains compensation was pretty awesome. The dividend drought was a planned thing of 3 - 5 years.

It will largely depend with the management decisions.
For example,now that rains have began,there should be no need to generate more thermal.That should save more than kshs 6 billion in fuel.


The rains have began and several areas in Nairobi are without power due to technical fault.
How then do they expect improvement in financial position when they cant sell power

The problem is with management and we all agree to that.
Kcb,safaricom and KenRe are good companies with good management despite Gok ownership in them.
Problem with kenya power is being used as a propaganda and a campaign tool.Hopefully management problem will be over one day.

Parliament has repealed the law that imposed a Sh1 million fine or one-year jail term for real estate developers and home owners who fail to install solar water heating systems in their buildings.

MPs said the penalties, introduced under regulations empowering the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) to vet buildings for compliance with the solar heating rules, would increase costs for landlords and tenants and undermine access to affordable housing.

National Assembly’s Committee on Delegated Legislation threw out the ERC rules on grounds that the Sh1 million fine contravenes the section of the Statutory Instruments Act (SI Act) that limits fines payable under the Act to a maximum of Sh20,000 or a prison term not exceeding six months in default.

Parliamentarians said the rules were also in contravention of the law that prevents imposition of a fine, imprisonment or other penalty without express authority provided for in the enabling legislation
