After all the drama, this is much better than I expected. Compare this to some firms that have not turned a profit for 6 years running.
Have the accounts been qualified?
What's the EPS?
How many shares does KPLC have?

Constantly staring at the rear view mirror while driving is not a proper way of going through an investment journey..Seeing an ex doing better in someone else's hands is always painful. Accept
and move on

Going by the numbers provided by @Ericsson, the EPS is ksh. 1 or thereabouts. Therefore earnings = 28% given the current share price of 3.6. How is Return on Assets(ROA) calculated for firms such as Kenya power? What is the formula? I told you this firm if well managed can rival Safaricom

NIL dividends down from 2017's 0.5 per share. Waiting for the market to open we see some massacre

The key measure for this company isn't the EPS.
The problem with this company is cashflow and debt.
It's now relying on short term borrowings to meet it's daily obligations.A big chunk of its cash is going towards debt repayments.
A look at the balance sheet and the P&L statement shows that long term debt reduced by ksh.23bn,ksh.7.8bn was spent on finance costs.
The company cashflow position is at negative ksh.7.6bn
The current liabilities have doubled over the past two years.

We need to research as to which companies were doing well during mtukufu rais moi regime especially here in NSE.


Now let's wait for the figures


Am told because of the Commissioning of LTWP and REA Garissa, there will be no news today. MARK YOUR CALENDAR for THURSDAY 22


I see no mentioning of Commissioning of LTWP and REA Garissa today.


But PBT should be in the range of 2.5 to 3.1...Take the best case scenario of 3.1 due to reduced provisioning


Predictions don't come more accurate than this. Hongera!
