He seems to be heavily invested in agricultural stocks. Superb results as was expected but terrible dividend payment policy. Not enough minority shares since Board is controlled (50%+) by UK parent. http://www.finanznachric...eat-performance-020.htm Aly Khan Satchu, an independent analyst said the proposed dividend for Williamson's shares did not meet expectations. 'The dividend pay out of 6.25 per share was a 'crass' mistake for which there is simply no justification,' he said. He cited Williamson's earnings per share of 96.42 shillings from 12.62 shillings previously for his dissatisfaction with the proposed dividend. Greedy when others are fearful.

I also noticed that they said they were not going to match last years performance in the current financial year. Won't that lead to a drop in the share price this time next year? But I agree the dividend was a joke. GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

Rank: Chief Joined: 1/3/2007 Posts: 18,346 Location: Nairobi		Like @cnn said... I have NEVER seen them say anything positive... It is like they want to think the company is going to collapse... I have the past 3 years of results & they ALWAYS bitch about labour, fuel & inputs... Whether they make 5/-, 10/- or 96/-... they 'lower' expectations... OK, fine BUT pay me a effing dividend that matches earnings/cashflow... @cnn - Erm, a 100% drop = ZERO EPS... u mean 50% drop... Greedy when others are fearful.
