They need 11bn to pay off an 11bn loan coming due in July 2022.


Their cashflow position not good.


The share price responding accordingly.

Most expensive share in the NSE on a PE basis (30). I wonder why people are willing to buy EABL when better value can be found in other shares.

The ksh.11bn to be paid off;part of it was used to retire the ksh.6 billion medium term note which they were repaying at an interest of 14.95% and the remainder to acquire the additional 30% stake in Serengeti Breweries

Why lend to EABL at 12% when you can lend the government at 13%? Ours is a strange market.

One can buy the 20 year bond, and then sell it after 5 years with little erosion on yield. And bear in mind the infrastucture 20 year bond is a 13% tax free while the yield on EABL one after tax is 10.2%

The latest IFB yields a tax free 12.7%. Bond prices fall if yields rise, there is little likelihood of the interest rate rising above 12.7% in the next 5 years given the liquidity in the market – bank lending to the government has ramped up as they try to minimize risk.
12.7% interest free lent to the government is much superior to 10.2% lent to a corporate that cant seem to wean itself off debt.

BTW, did you read how Zambia found an additional $2.2bn of debt? – bank lending to the government has ramped up as they try to minimize risk.

And is GoK weaning itself of debt? Laughing out loudly

Tbills and Tbond rates (plus Kshs. Fx rate) are where they are because of stubbornness of Opus Dei towards Treasury & Executive demands.

Government cant simply print or tax us to smithereens to repay their debt. EABL does not have this option.

Printing money 💵 has serious ramifications.
The additional tax measures they are coming up with,are they hitting the targets in terms of collections.

The demerits of printing money aside; the argument is that you get a higher and risk free yield from the government IFB bond as compared to the EABL commercial paper.

Probability of EABL defaulting in interest payments and principal repayments is zero
