That dividend yield is decent. Not interested though, because of the trap


It's a better counter compared to KQ and HFCK.


A taller dwarf compared to those other two dwarfs.

The results are quite good under the circumstances. From the earlier press release it seems KenyaRe might have had take some additional hits/provisions relating to new rules/IFRS.

I am waiting to read the Chairman and CEO's letters.


A few notes from the CEO letter
-Kenya contributes 40% of its premiums while 60% comes from the regional business
-The dividend policy is 30% of the cash profit.In FY2020 cash profit was ksh.2.1bn

Of course, things can change in 2H2021 given the drama around COVID (delta variant for now) but from what he said, I think the dividend (0.20) will be maintained or higher for FY2021.

Medical expenses/claims were huge since IRA forced KE insurance firms to pay for COVID even with exclusions for pandemics. These policies will be repriced in 2021.

Loss of business with shutdowns/lockdowns as factories, hotels, etc didn't take/need insurance. Opening up in 2021 will help.

Loss of life business as people were let go. Perhaps a change for the better in 2021.

Life business in 2021 will be tough as more people have been let go.
I'm waiting to see HY2021 which will be out end of July or early August to give direction of FY2021.
The Uganda subsidiary made a loss in FY2020,will wait to see if it will have made a turnaround.
Zep Re also had a more than 50% reduction in profit in FY2020 compared to FY2021. Will see if there is a jump in 2021.

Good to hear.
I reckon she is the wife of faida Investment Bank chairman
Mr Bob Karina and my stock brokers since 2004.

Good enough from the news she is not an outsider in Ken-re
as she was previously a director .


Congrats and best wishes madam Karina.

Why did they switch banks at the last minute?

Plus the details in the annual report.
Investment income on revaluation of properties got a beating.
About time KenyaRe got real about property valuations. I always discount these when I do my analysis.

- Kisumu property for sale at 1bn but no offers it seems.
- Vacancies in existing properties due to COVID and other reasons.
- CMA looking to move
- Upper Hill plot is dead in the water for now.

There wasn't much of a FV loss in 2020 in the accounts but in reality it should have been much higher.



They have decided to keep Reinsurance plaza Kisumu after failing to get buyers

Unless they do a major turnaround in H2,a profit warning and dividend cut is inevitable.

General re-insurance contributes 85% of total income.
Long term re-insurance which is mainly life assurance reinsurance contributes 15% of total income.

So according to you Kenya Re will be able to reverse the 64% drop in first half profit and avoid a profit warning?
