=They are just running away from the future they know its bleak for them politically.How else do you explain the sell off:Britak,Trancentury,reduction in Eqty bank and the like.To conceal their motive in Britak IPO they have disguised it as raising funds expansion but look at the price set its enough to recoup their investment with a good return.Its all an exit strategy!

If all the shares are taken

EPS =1.26
DPS =0.09
PE = 6.9
While the proceeds will be invested as follows amounts in MN

Regional expansion 1,000
Kenyan market 1,280
Property development 2,500

Expenses of the Offer 320

Total 5,850

So this means 650MN shares out 2.15B shares will be active in the stock exchange for the next two yrs.
@selah,
do have the average EPS for the last 5 years?
I think the possibility of the share price rising are quite High in these two yrs,but long term it will be tricky,and the reason for the rising will most obviously be because of speculation since 2010 seems the best yrs ever for the company.

On PE it seem fair at around 7

This will sound very wanjiku like, but there's no other way to say it. CFCIH baffles us all and continues to due to is share price. I dont thikn britak will be an exception. But purely speculation
