Expensive. Prime asset is still EA Cables which has seen better days.
Interesting that the original G29 and other shareholders will be allowed to sell up to 50% of their stake before the 2012 general election.

I am seeing a pattern here...

Its not overpriced as it seems...if u use other valuation metrics apart from PE...once again throw away that stupid IM and look at their AR...my beef is the source of their 2010 profits...i.e they sold their stake in a Zambian metal company at Sh130M having bought it at Sh420M, also a piece of land they bought at Sh46M was worth Sh416M in 2010...SMH!!!!

My deepest concern about TC is their large exposure to the cables business as the base metals have been on a mad rally thanks to BRIC making their products un-competitive. They should in future invest in a copper mine to secure their raw materials cheaper!!

My biggest concern is that 2 companies with close ties to the Kibaki administration are listing one yrs b4 his term ends,when the stock exchange is in a bear run and the economic growth prospect showing signs of contracting.With prices which to me seem over priced.

There seems to be some smoke that may end up being fire, why the listing of Britac & TC at this time of the bearish market? seams the directors have to off load not necessarily to make money for them & the company but to reduce holding.
..This may lead poor performance and given the lag of election next year, when one goes in be ready to wait for no less than 18 months.
Just my two cents
The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence

50% owners cash out... No need to look at P/E or other valuations. Why sell 50% if there is more juice to squeeze...Think

On page 147 of the IM, TCL have indicated that they expect to get over 99% (1796/1809) of their profit in 2011 from power division in the following way:

Quote:
Tripling of capacity in East Africa Cables, tripling of capacity at Tanelet, 50% capacity increase at Kewberg as well as increasing commodity prices.


I think they are unrealistic.

The good thing with listing by introduction is that even though they are talking of a price of 50, we are at liberty to bid at the price we think the company is worth. I will be bidding at a price that is way way way lower
