Wow! RSI oversold since 2012. When the rebound comes, it'll be vicious. 200% rebound is very likely on that occassion.


I have confidence in this counter i think the news November will sound good (increase in flights, hopefully the passenger numbers too) and if they locked in fuel price at 90s or below, Naikuni will have a good story.

Is KQ referred to as a parastatal?

The counter will soon get to that inflection point where bad news is good news and good news is taken as very good news! This will be that rebound period. Just waiting for that volume story.

KQ will make some people very rich. thank me later

@hisah, pls let us know when the inflection point beckons. Wouldn't want to buy this now and then see it tomorrow being 50% down or worse in bankruptcy

Does KQ place ads on his website?


That notwithstanding, he must have sunk lots of money here from many years back. I even remember him hyping the April 2012 rights issue @14bob

This "Passenger Numbers" crap has been bandied around since days of #StocksKenya!! Anybody who has been here that long can attest to the fact #KenyaAirways has been totally incapable of turning such numbers into profit!

Infact the only good year they had was when fuel hedges worked in their favor.

Increase in passenger numbers plus transit tonnage as a metric of growth is useless until those figures translate into per-share profits.

As of now..passenger travel is more a cost center than profit center..

Remember the Greece fiasco? How much did it cost #KQ to accomodate all those passengers whose transit was hamper'd (sic) both locally and abroad simply because of that 1 aircraft?

Kenya Airways chiefs take a pay cut

Top executives of Kenya Airways recorded a pay cut last year as the national carrier races to recover from tough two years that saw it swing to the biggest loss ever in the history of companies listed on the Nairobi bourse.

Details in the national carrier’s annual report show that the annual pay of executive directors dropped to Sh77 million in the year to March from Sh82 million a year earlier.

KQ’s annual report lists its executive directors as Titus Naikuni (CEO) and Alex Mbugua (group finance director) —and this means they shared a monthly package of Sh6.41 million, down from last year’s Sh6.83 million.

Analysts linked the pay drop to performance-related compensation and tied it to KQ’s earnings for the year ended March 2012 when carrier’s profit dropped 51.4 per cent to Sh1.66 billion.

“The pay drop appears to be linked to bonuses rather than the actual pay. It could have something to do with two tough years KQ has faced,” said an analyst at Standard Investment Bank.

I still remember this time when they reported very impressive passenger numbers and alas, a few days later a profit warning was unleashed. It killed all excitement that was beginning to build at the time in an instant!!!

Emirates deepens flower business rivalry with KQ

* Emirates Airline will intensify the fight for control of the Nairobi—Amsterdam flower business against Kenya Airways with the introduction of two two freighters (a plane that carries only cargo) on the route

* The two freighters will double Emirates weekly cargo capacity to 400 tonnes and increase the number of carriers in the route to four.

* The additional cargo planes are set to trigger a price war on the route that is dominated with transportation of horticulture produce given that about 70 per cent of Kenyan flowers get to the world market through the Amsterdam auctions.

btw, citi in their report on dated 1st May 2013 predicted that KQ will achieve 9.1% increase in passenger volume during the current financial year 2013/2014. However, KQ will still record a FY13/14 loss of KES 4.4B

@ 14 i forgot that there is another thread on KQ which started when the share price was sh 54!! Sijui sh 52. I sat out the rights issue will exercise mine on monday @9. Na ikifika sh 5 taongezeaa the bride sio pride of Africa
rink: KQ why ignore
now imagine if kq shareholders had the hindsight to put Nyai-kuni and the entire executive and senior mgt on a performance based contract where say 70% of salo is paid in with the rest in share bought at 54 and for increased profitability they get a bonus,! Will these guys have performed better than this genocide and atrocities they have unleashed on investors?

It would have wiped that shjupit grin from Nyai-kuni. The other idiot Kidero did the same at Mumias rink: mumias ni another Paka in the making na hii pia sluggish mumiasand some scatterbrains expect him to turn round Nyairovi my footShame on you Shame on you waKenya kweli ni ngiri za Raila! !
