Another of his crap below:
https://www.standardmedi...mbroiled-in-land-tussle As a potential investor you should be looking at the company's books and not village gossip about the ceo.
All info needs to be verified as much as possible but the character of the CEO is also important eg after my experience with matu of olympia, I would think long and hard before I touch anything he was involved in.
Naikuni, Mbugua of KQ
Merali
But to each his own.
Tell him also that the so called books he implies can be cooked to flatter shareholders.Ambia yeye kenya power and Longhorn cooked their latest books.

I have no idea about Rugendo but some other shady characters in whom I have little trust:
Carl Esprey (Atlas) - I thought they were the real deal
Ciano (Uchumi)
Segman (KK) - I used to like him but then...
Whereas it is not fair to say Rugendo is not legit without knowing more, the recent spate of failed/poor GEMS listing (among others) leads me to be cautious.
Price - We want to buy into a firm that provides us with a fair return. If the shares are "expensive" using whatever valuation we are comfy with then why invest?
Today, we can buy KK at 9x PER, Safcom at 15x PER, Banks at 6-9x PER and 0.6-1.5x BV, etc.
Some eg Saf are still growing in double digits. Even Equity is doing double digits.
Can Rugendo offer us better value?
Can he give me 15% p.a.?
