@mwekeza@ji Elephant thick! Who will want to fund them and at what cost? Hapa kuna shida!


The debt level is also a huge burden.interest expense grew from 610mn to over a billion while revenues declined

Could you imagine the expected interest expense upon rate cap repeal?

@mwekezaji Elephant thick! Who will want to fund them and at what cost? Hapa kuna shida!

Last time bondholders took a haircut for them to be able to exit, so there is no way they can agree to put money here

Banks have had to restructure their loans in this company so there is no way they are lending more here.

Now its for the existing shareholders (Kuramo and others) to inject more equity. Last year Kuramo injected additional capital at Kes. 13.85 per share. This was a very good deal for TCL. TCL should try another deal like this

The revenue dip shows that selling cables isn't working out well. The Chinese are here. Same fate that faced Sameer, BOC and Carbacid is now upon Cables

There are some hard-core folks who want to go down with the ship!
"Buy and Hold" does not mean you hold when the tide (fundamentals) has turned for the worse. It means one does not "trade"...

Other firms that some shareholders have held on through thick and thin regardless of the fundamentals include:
KQ [I bailed in 2012 at 13+]
NBK - GoK
ARM - A huge mistake going into TZ but they may find a Strategic Partner but not worth the 40/- that CDC paid.
Sameer - Merali
Eveready - Merali
Uchumi - GoK
Mumias - GoK
Olympia - Matu [I sold out. This firm is run by a crook.]
Deacons - I has a few but I sold out post-Westgate. It's a dead man walking.

Some (very few) have recovered from dire straits
ARM - From barely alive to booming [Late 90s to 2015 but then back to the barely breathing]
KK - From Segman's evisceration to Ohana's day in the sun.
KenGen - GoK bailout
KPLC - GoK bailout but it's back in the ICU
KCB

Ayayayayaya

The way things are going, Kuramo needs to stop pussyfooting around with TransCentury. Treating Tranny as an associate doesn't do kuramo any justice.

They need to come out of the closet, They must provide decent steady financial and technical backing to Tranny asap. It is a subsidiary for all intents and purposes. For an entity that is hemorrhaging cash amidst cheap Chinese imports, no amount of short term debt can rescue the situation or improve the prospects.

In the meantime, the price protection team must be working overtime on this one.
