Once they are disclosed you will find out that the total consideration Jubilee will pay will be higher than the ksh.1.1bn. Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation

At the close of the deal the price might be revised upwards.For example I&M when they announced they were buying Orient Bank Uganda the cost was ksh.3.6bn,at the time of completion of the deal the cost had risen to more than ksh.4bn https://www.businessdail...ient-bank-stake-3387000
https://www.theeastafric...an-unit-in-july-3701606
I&M had initially estimated to spend Ksh3.6 billion ($31.6 million) in the buyout but the amount had risen to Ksh4.1 billion ($36 million) as of June last year.
“When you do the transaction, you are looking into the books and what you might get. Later on as you do the business may need changes here and there. That is still underway,” I&M Bank Kenya chief executive Kihara Maina told Business Daily in an interview.Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation

Jubilee Holdings is spending $4 million (Sh461 million) to build a head office for its Tanzanian operations in a move that will save the insurer tens of millions of shillings in rent. “We are building headquarters for our Tanzania business in Dar es Salaam. That is going to cost us $4 million (Sh461 million),” Jubilee’s chairman Nizar Juma told the Business Daily. “We have owned land there for many years and we feel this is the right time to build the headquarters. He added that the decision will see the company save the $400,000 (Sh46.1 million) that its subsidiaries operating in that market have been paying in rent annually.The company’s subsidiaries and associates in Tanzania include Jubilee Life Insurance Corporation of Tanzania Limited and Jubilee Investments Tanzania Limited.

I have learnt to ignore the noise. As you say, even if there are other costs eg stamp duty, renovations, extensions, etc and it ends up at 1.5bn... based on the 400mn/acre [supplied by @ericsson] 3.2acres x 400mn = 1.25bn so everything else including the building is for only 250mn! These days in Kiambu (Edenville) there are houses at 25mn each. So JHL is getting a really high quality building (less the land) for 10 houses in Kiambu! It would not surprise me to see Jubilee try to get a couple of diplomatic missions/DFIDs/NGOs/MNCs into the property. Folks who pay in USD/EUROs. If JHL can generate net 150mn net income from this property, it will probably beat most other commercial buildings in UH. An agent I spoke to told me 4-8% yields are the norm in UH. It's not about drama,it's saying the truth and disclosing all details.The costs i'm talking about are not related to extensions,renovations. Those are post transaction costs which are neither here nor there. Transparency ni muhimu in investing. For now hold your mouth as we wait for the detailed transaction document between Knight Frank and Jubilee. Then what are these costs you are referring to that are NOT related to extensions, renovations or closing costs (legal, stamp duty, etc)? At the close of the deal the price might be revised upwards.For example I&M when they announced they were buying Orient Bank Uganda the cost was ksh.3.6bn,at the time of completion of the deal the cost had risen to more than ksh.4bn https://www.businessdail...ient-bank-stake-3387000
https://www.theeastafric...an-unit-in-july-3701606
I&M had initially estimated to spend Ksh3.6 billion ($31.6 million) in the buyout but the amount had risen to Ksh4.1 billion ($36 million) as of June last year.
“When you do the transaction, you are looking into the books and what you might get. Later on as you do the business may need changes here and there. That is still underway,” I&M Bank Kenya chief executive Kihara Maina told Business Daily in an interview. A bank and a building are very different creatures. I&M probably got more shares in I&M UG for the additional 500mn. They probably did not pay MORE for the 90%. Similarly, Jubilee probably paid 1.1bn (excl closing costs) for the building but invested more to improve/expand the property/office space. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Weeh This is a fire sale. Nonsense. They got a great deal/multiple. Read the IM. Actions speak louder 🔊 than words. Time will tell who spoke nonsense . How should we measure it? I would like to come back to it. Silence from @Ericsson? https://www.businessdail...neral-insurance-3260150
Meanwhile, Britam Life maintained the lead in the long-term insurance despite its market share shrinking from 24.7 percent to 23.96 percent. ICEA Lion Life Assurance beat Jubilee to the second spot with a market share of 14.68 percent, a rise from 13.8 percent in June 2019. Jubilee Insurance had the biggest drop with it's market share dropping from 15.5% in 2019 Q2 to 13.4% in Q2 2020. ICEA LION Life Assurance had the biggest jump. Market share is not profits. We are going step by step,so that at the conclusion whatever the outcome there will be no noise like where is the evidence. H1 2022 Drop in revenues Drop in profits Share price has now gone below ksh.200 Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation
