Its good these guys are now coming out at the right time.When the cases have just began,they will do well to explain in court some of the dubious contracts they were awarded.

After the payment drama with @sparkly [Safcom has made it harder to make payments using that method] and non-payment from @Obiero ... no more bets.

Nevertheless, I wager that there is a LOT more rot in KPLC from the supply of poles, cables, conductors, etc that will far exceed the KES 400mn lost from the purchase of poor quality transformers!

Then there are liabilities not recorded or acknowledged. As well as assets that could be missing.

If a proper audit of all assets and liabilities is done, I expect a hit to the P&L and Balance Sheet.

Profit will be there but the cashflow statement has received a serious hammering/battering

this theories of fear have denied people easy gains,someone is holding kplc bought at 18bob and here Iam only advising an exit of 12-14...is the debt apportioned to you when you make gains and exit?


That's very true..too much of fear makes one a poor investor.I have staked my everything on this share.
How can you be wrong with a monopoly,dealing in a precious commodity and beneficiary of govt grants.
At this rock bottom prices really, where is the risk?


Lets say the debt and government appointed management makes kplc an investment that is beyond my circle of competence.

Good luck.


My views remain. My apologies @ Moneydust

does kplc realy have absolute pricing power like a real monopoly?
i don expect kplc to ever make super normal profits in the fore seeable future.
The earning and dividends are tiny.
The management is below par due to political influence
high investment costs for ppe.
cleary kplc is simply beyond me
