1) The rates are much lower than 10% of USD loans. Probably closer to 5% coz borrowed from US EXIM Bank.


So you believe 5 years from now KQ will manage to pay 9billion in just interest every year...

I didn't say that but just pointed out the interest costs [coz new loans are likely to be in US$]

I believe the KES 9bn is affordable AS LONG AS the flights run (average) 70% full, fuel prices are reasonable & JKIA remains a decent hub airport.

@Aguytrying.I am NOT fascinated by your
accurate calculations. You have made the assumption that there will be no increase in earnings.
KQ have stated their target is 100 planes. They must have done some logical analysis to arrive at this figure. Please remember that KQ have consistently had a load factor of 69%, a number I'm confident they will maintain even with the 100 planes.

The risk to KQ in my books are staff costs. Fuel spikes, hedges, crashes can be mitigated but they need to somehow resolve the HR riddle.

I expect a depression in price, ksh 10 is not far fetched, but I have previously bought at ksh 6.75 and got out in the 100s.

For sure, this is not for the faint hearted but the rewards are worth it.


I was strictly predicting EPS for current financial year 2012, with regards to dilution by the rights. And not 2013 and beyond.

When will the planes be delivered, whats the schedule of plane delivery? i believe there were some expected even before rights issue.

Falling by the maximum 10% rule today. Its a good aggressive expansion plan, i'm pessimistic if they will pull it off.

KQ 16:5 rights will burn your fingures

If you can, sell your secondary rights of KQ at NSE and forfeit paying 14 bob for every 5 shares you have. KQ will start making positive returns from the rights issue partially in 2014 and the Dreamline delivery will have to work like clock work for KQ to give good returns for those who will have been holding the baby from 2012 to 2014.

Wait for KQ at 10 bob or less after the rights issue and just when elections fever will be high as we end the year and before March 2013 or June 2013 if there will be a rerun.

Those who have ears, let them hear.

I foresee a political assassination this year.

Wisdom to detect when share prices hit rock bottom.
When interest on bonds keep going up, you know the bear run is on high street. When interest on bonds start leveling, the bear has met the bull and they have hit rock bottom. When the interest rates on bonds start coming down, the bull has overpowered the bear and you better be riding the bull.

airlines are just capital gobblers it's like feeding a monster you don't feed it, it will bite you. I would rather give my capital to another sector financial or retail but not airlines.
