Profits down to 348.2MN from 441MN posted the previous financial year.

DPS maintained at 0.75 cents per share.

@ Deal - what do you have to say as you were very positive on this counter ?

The 1H results were very good & there was a sleight of hand by the Board in the 2H results.

1) No profit warning but a decrease of 22% which might have been 'adjusted' to be less than a 25% reduction in EPS.
2) The final dividend of 0.75 is miserly since Unga has 280mn in cash. This is 3.75 per share in cash.

I am very disappointed that Unga painted a very positive picture in the 1H announcement but did not perform as expected in 2H. Nevertheless, a bonus or a higher dividend was warranted.

As long as the company can get back to +20% growth in profits next year, i see no problem here. This can be a buying opportunity while the weak ones sell off

The Directors decided to pack Ksh30mn in a Term deposit instead of increasing the dividend thats not cool, Ksh30mn is equal to Ksh0.40 per share.
