@ProverB by the time the fundamentals are confirmed - the share price will likely have moved to reflect the confirmed value. haha.

Fundamentals of this stock are good - growing economy, increasing number of vehicles, P/E value of less than 10, valuable assets - locations of stations, control of oil marketing, can pass additional costs to consumers, etc.

@ProverB is correct... There was a time Total decided to lose sales to increase Profit Margins... Why? Coz the risk was too great of those extra sales...

Higher prices (due to high INPUT costs) does not mean higher profits...

That said... I think KK will increase market share... and profits from its regional subsidiaries will be much better...

What will stop Kenol/Kobil reserving the awarded/settlement cash (from KPC) and later using it to buy shares in KPC either before or after KPC IPO? That way shareholders will reap the benefits of dominant positions in the distribution network and the retail market at the same time!

This is a complex transaction... The KPC decision has been appealed by KPC...

@VVS - Agreed transaction will be complex but very lucrative. KPC's appeal is bound to fail.

Grin... I hope so... I have only 1 of (est) 40 million shares in KPC while a much larger percentage in Kenol...

Saw that today morning from NSE. I'm sure it will be in the news today. So let's wait and see what happens until end of this month.
