last few years excuses for delays been lack of Auditor General, hitches ..lack of CEO
This time they have no excuse.
They don't need to wait till last minute, results should be out by now.
Though nothing good expected with the depressed hydrology.
Reasonable results
KenGen Dividends @ Ksh 0.30, which is more than 10% of the current price. This I think is not a bad buy.
Only reasonable 'buy' now is any stock that has a dividend yield that equals the 6.5 years IFB (at around 16%).....and remember that entire dividend yield will be factored in the current price such that as the stock goes ex-dividend with books closure, the price retracts at least with the equivalence of the dividend (e.g once Kengen closes books, you can be assured the price will drop by at least Ksh 0.3 and may not recover until next dividend announcement which maybe lower with the current economic environment).
Happy Hunting
Any stocks that meet this DY?
Agriculturals (except those in Macadamia business).....they will rake in crazy returns based on the favorable rains and huge depreciation of the Ksh.
Let's start with 18% for the IFB!
WTK paid 30 and the current price is 200 so it is in the ballpark.
KTC paid 20 and the current price is 220 which is 9% [1/2 of the IFB]
Do note that tea prices are -25% YOY as lots of rain has increased production AND some of our buyers are broke. Egypt has no $ and asked to barter for tea. Pakistan has had financial drama for a while.

We should look for china to buy our tea.
WTK and Kapchorua Half Year Results registered almost a doubling of PAT.....This was sweetened by an interim dividend of Ksh 10.
Happy Hunting
As a long term shareholder I am very happy with the interim DPS and PAT
I have received way more in dividends (over the past 10 years) for these two than I paid for them.
I cannot say that for most of the my holdings.
I expect another 20/- as a Final Dividend if the tea prices hold up [but they are down 25% YoY] and KES remains weak.
BUT this is a KenGen thread!
KES/USD will likely hurt KenGen if there are large USD loans out there.
