I am made to understand Uchumi was a 1st (and only) to be turned around in Kenya (without being sold off), by analogy the only listed to turn around.

At an EPS of 4.81, and growing at over 100% in profits, the results for 30th June 2011 may just hit Ksh 9-10 earnings per share!

If on relisting, the stock is to trade at a P/E of 5, this translates at a Price of about Ksh 24!!

Have they factored the dilutional effect of converting debt to equity that was part of the restructuring?

Happy hunting

Sparkly & Stockmaster, No - Uchumi has NOT factored the conversion. Why, I simply can't tell, unless the new shares were preference perhaps? Also, note that of the EPS of 4.81, the tax credit contributes Kshs 2.40 while investment income contributes Kshs 0.72 leaving a normalised EPS of Kshs 1.68. I would still consider that a GREAT performance!!

The new shares raised total number to 262.5 million, from 180 million. Not a significantly large increase. If these new were not factored in the results, then including them would reduce the EPS to 3.3shs - still a very good EPS. Given the level of growth it has exhibited in the past 3 years, im sure most investors would be willing to buy it at a PE higher than SM's conservative value of 5.

I also see a new rights issue within a year of relisting. Will help increase available shares (current number are too few to attract enough interest in the market!), and get the additional money it needs to finalize the debts, plus fight off the Tusky's and co.. The market will respond more favorably to its rights when it is listed.

I will hold onto my shares for a while after listing, to see how it progresses.

Why does the CMA dither on re-listing them?

Many firms make losses... but it is time to re-list!

assume a 1:1 conversion, meaning a price of 12

@stock, why does Uchumi have to trade at P/E of 5 when other commercials do 10-15?

BTW, i don't lose any sleep about this, I wrote it off a long time ago. If it comes back, I'll think of it as a bonus and hold it for another 3 years
