2009 full year results;

EPS down from 2.5 to 2.21
Profit down from 1.5bn to 1.328bn

Lets see how the market will react. Was H2 that terrible? their H1 numbers were looking good.

Expected better from Kenya Re. If you sold at 14.5, you are in luck.

the drop in profits was due to a 400million increase in claims...
they have maintained dividends at 50 cents....
i wonder if the share price will be able to hold this information....

this stock has been the sleeper in my portfolio then they do this.... i am going to have a long thought on this tonight but i will probably end up selling out 100% tomorrow morning...

insurance firms suck balls!!!!! low P/E or not...

The 'excellent' H1 results were propped up by revaluation of investment property. Looks like revaluation is the method of choice of masking bogus operations results. nkt

Maybe the Board was right in not renewing mbogo's contract...

its on days like these that i thank God for the fairly slow flow of information in africa... i wonder how many of the huge optimists of this counter know of this disaster in results....

all the IB's are going to have to review their analysis on this stock simply because management is not improving underwriting profitability and their exposure to claims is simply not manageable...

i still believe this stock is poised for growth simply because its sector is poised for growth but i also believe that investors are going to punish this stock in the short term hence my decison to sell out at only 2% profit... DAMN!!!! Sad
