@Obiero is all smiles smile


For the umpteenth time never ever buy a corporate bond in Kenya... Never...


What about safaricom and kengen bonds? ARM was junk bond


In the bonds section... I mentioned safaricom and Eabl... When they were doing that bond ARM was a darling you wouldnt have termed it junk then....


Reminds me of Commercial Paper in the 90s Sad Sad Sad

And people are still buying this piece of junk..


Someone is seriously mopping up ARM.

Demand was zero yesterday afternoon then someone showed up just before market close and cleaned out all supply from 3.50 to 3.90.

Btw I sold at 3.80 yesterday banking 41% profits. The negative media coverage is not good for the rally.

That's a very decent return in such a short time. Congrats!

More and more debt.

Paunrana stake to be further diluted.
The company needs to get more of its products into the market.
IFC and CDC should take ARM through a merger with an existing player

1) It reads like ARM wants to replace Stanbic and AFC debt with cheaper debt from IFC & CDC. There are multiple lenders (in the Annual Report) and interest rates range from 10.5% to 17.5% depending on the lender and currency.

2) If ARM can replace these $140mn loans with cheaper debt (but increase the currency risk) it may emerge from this debacle stronger.

3) I do not think the Paunrana stake will be diluted if just the loans are replaced BUT I do not understand why CDC hasn't put its own people into executive roles.

4) Yes, ARM needs a strategic investor but who would want ARM's assets at a "fair" price? And who, except Bamburi, has the cash to buy them? [Bamburi might not be allowed to do so given its #1 position in Kenya/EAC]

Not at all @VVS smile smile smile .

I belief ARM has good prospects for the medium - long term but will remain volatile in the short term. Hence I took profits hoping to catch it lower later in the 2.00 - 2.50 range.

I might be wrong however. It might zoom and hit 6.00 in which case I will just watch as you enjoy your profits.

I hope I did my "homework" well. Whereas, I am looking at it a long-term investment, I am not confident enough to make it a core investment. Yet.

There's a lot of noise but it seems CDC is going to help ARM on the Working Capital issue. I think the 1H (loss expected) results may take 2 months to release but it should provide more info.

Ultimately, it seems the salvation may be a Strategic Investor coming into ARM by injecting cash and liaising with CDC to control and manage the firm by replacing the Paunrana family.
