From TA perspective, the support cluster at 38 - 39 level had better hold. Otherwise the bears threat target projections are 35 then 30. Again I ask, why a rights issue in this defensive market. It sends an ugly signal.
One of KCB's Capital Adequacy Ratio's excess was quite thin at FY 2015. The 10bn [& Scrip Dividend] is needed for the Chase acquisition + expansion.

True. Even more urgent with the Chase deal on the table. But the market has been moving against banks months before. That's what I'm pointing out.

should we expect a similar move by member going forward?

Line in the sand is 35 - 37 zone. Below that bears will aim for the 30 handle. Bulls need to push above 45 handle to put off the bear pressure. For now it's just a push-pull in between (ranging - sideways market).


I don't get it why KCB only finance growth, acquisitions through owner's equity. They have to go back to shareholders every 3-5 years. Not optimal, cost of equity is not cheap.


In contrast equity bank doesn't frequently do rights issue. Tells us all we need to know about the king of growth

Equity has actually never done a rights issue, they are set to do one next year. KCB they have had quite a number


Link?

Full year results announcents video, they will need the money to go into new markets (Mozambique, Zambia)
So far they sitting on 10bn for Ethiopia and more billions to capitalize DRC and Tanzania


Demand gaining momentum ... supply thinning..

Notable demand for KCB today. Could it be in anticipation of good Q1 results?

Accumulation in preparation of the rights issue.
Once KCB is done with tallying of how many shares will be issued under the script dividend the rights issue details will be released.
Rights issue will come immediately after the one for KENGEN pointing to August as the month the rights issue will be held.

This is most likely due the large NPLs increase . The market doesn't take them lightly. Same case with NIC bank

i thought the NPL has been covered well with the right LLP? and its only Q1.Oigara said the NPL was caused by two sources of a total of kshs 7 billion which there is assurance that by june they will resume paying.

Oigara is betting on GoK making the payments to the contractors by 30 June using the 20bn it just borrowed in May under the IFB program.

That 7bn is almost the entire gross NPL of equity their closest competitor. Tafakari hayo.
