Kengen MD, Rebecca Miano, named CS in charge of East African Community, Arid & Semi-arid areas.
of late share have experienced sustained foreign sales for several months The replacement to be selected by the CS and in extension the president will give directions. There are good replacements from the list of managers/directors that reported to the ND Watch very closely who replaces Miano. The market knows something that we dont yet know. The "K" in KPLC almost killed the firm. Will KenGen face the same fate in years to come? Miano seems to have run a clean show but will the next hyena? More parastatals to be listed in the NSE. Is there a chance they will turn out as Safaricom or are more likely to be Mumias, KQ, KPLC types? Parastatals that should be listed: 1. KPA 2. KPC 3. Communications Authority 4. KENHA 5. KEPRA Are you serious? #3 is a regulator. #4 is an agency. No idea about #5 Yes to #1 and #2 but only if it is transparent. Greedy when others are fearful.

Angels and demons are fighting on the plains of the Beulah Land. A qualified opinion must not be permitted. There is great darkness and fiery battles.

A disappointing dividend once again. Despite the 14bn in cash, shareholders will get a paltry 1.3bn. This can easily be funded with the interest income the company got from that 14bn cash they hold and the company hoards all the cash it generated from normal operations

I have also been trying to get a piece of kengen at 3 unsuccessfully with the idea of 10% divided yield, but it seems as the price goes down the dividend also goes down, i have just witdrawn my orders. i think im slowly maturing in these streets of investment, dividend yield is becoming a key factor in my picks, except for housing finance which is a recovery stock There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

In 2016 Kengen got a demand of Sh 3.3 Billion compensating tax from KRA. Link

This can easily be funded with the interest income the company got from that 14bn cash they hold and the company hoards all the cash it generated from normal operations For 2022/2023, the company looks to kick off the redevelopment of a forty-year-old 45MW Olkaria I geothermal power plant to give it a new lease of life and boost its capacity to more than 50MW as well as the uprating of Olkaria I Additional Units 4 & 5 and Olkaria IV. This project seeks to grow the capacity of the two geothermal power stations from the current 280MW to 320MW. Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation

What is that 65 billion "other comprehensive income" on the Kengen statement? It does not seem to affect taxation or cash.

How does that big South African pension fund stomach holding shares in KenGen?. Our own NSSF sold KenGen before the decline started.
