That's massive can't possibly be the loss before tax. Maximum -7B

There's no loss too massive for KQ...
Losing 7Bn AFTER the loan restructuring?

The restructuring became effective in the last quarter of the revised accounting period for KQ so all effects will carry over to Q1 JAN-MAR 2018 going forward


I thought KQ Q1 was April-June

It was changed at the last AGM


If the agm was on 30th August 2017, then doesn't it mean the earliest any changes to the accounts quarters can be seen is 2019?

It's possible to break the quarters and end the cycle as at 31.12.2017

In such a case, what happens to the half year July - December ?

It can be declared an overlap with adequate notes on the reason behind the changes. The following paragraphs are taken from the IAS Plus summary of IAS 1

Comparative Information

IAS 1 requires that comparative information shall be disclosed in respect of the previous period for all amounts reported in the financial statements, both face of financial statements and notes, unless another Standard requires otherwise. [IAS 1.36]

If comparative amounts are changed or reclassified, various disclosures are required. [IAS 1.38]

Reporting Period

There is a presumption that financial statements will be prepared at least annually. If the annual reporting period changes and financial statements are prepared for a different period, the enterprise must disclose the reason for the change and a warning about problems of comparability. [IAS 1.49]

either acrobatics or contortionist or musketry related words would not miss in describing veracity and velocity of positions taken by you @obiero on this counter. But for sure your ribs and deep pockets won't escape unscathed men.

@muandiwambeu incase the Open Offer isn't well structured, I shall sell my KQ holding.. My forecast on the same is minimum 3 new shares for each share held, price of course below KES 8.52 as guaranteed in the prior Project Safari circular

I see Sebastian is taking on those pesky engineers head on!

If one could buy KQ's assets [without the corresponding liabilities] at par and the current management [and re-hire the staff]... then I would look at KQ as being investable. To be clear, it's NOT investable at 15/- coz of legacy debts and staff.

@chief vvs.. Some utopian ideas are relevant on the bitcoin thread.. It's not possible to re-hire everyone.. The few bad apples can be exited

IMHO, the best way forward for KQ and the country [taxpayers] was putting Old KQ into bankruptcy and transferring to New KQ those assets (& corresponding loans) that made sense and re-hire (or hire) staff that weren't stealing... No need to deal with the likes of alex "mwizi" mbugua.

This would have eliminated lots of problems for Sebastian.

The New KQ could have looked for investors including myself!
