Is it me or that B.Daily article is misleading? Yes there was dilution but did people expect the number of shares to remain and the price to increase?

“I knew there was dilution but I did not expect the number of shares I held to drop,” said David Kamau, an investor whose share ownership declined from 10,000 units to 2,500 when Kenya Airways shares resumed trading on the NSE on November 29...

Assuming their shares had not been slashed, the minority investors would have seen the value of their stake in Kenya Airways rise from an aggregate of Sh3.4 billion to Sh11.3 billion using Friday’s share price.
That would have left them with a paper gain of Sh7.9 billion.
The consolidation, however, saw their combined ownership drop to Sh2.8 billion, a loss of Sh609.8 million.


Are people mixing up number of shares and the value? if the person had 10K shares prior to restructuring where each share unit was KES 5.00, the new unit of share after a 1-4 consolidation was KES 20.00. Effectively his portfolio remained valued at KES 50,000 albeit at a lower ownership fraction. At the current prices, the person would make the desired money by offloading a smaller number of shares than he would have sold prior to restructuring.

Ama namna gani?

True, albeit kuoshwa on the way. It was rather Demeaning to some investors to trade in penny stock, and had literally written of their holdings at kqueer. Now at a high(not higher) price there is room to fall. One more disastrous result and the cann continuous the momentous tumble down hill. Anyway everyone is here for a cause.


Having portfolio where every counter is on the positive side relative to buying price sio rahisi

Agreed.

@eboomerang a useless article by business daily. Though granted, some of the elderly shareholders may not have known exactly how to interpret the dilution. But it doesn't deserve the front page!

True! Only firms that lose billions every quarter should be on the front page! Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

i think he means that many retail shareholders of kq did not grasp this consolidation well.The final result is that if an investor had 4000 shares,he now has 1000.So there is still no gain whatsoever despite the price change.The banks and other big lenders are the ones who have benefited only.The former shareholders are still in the red.
