If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

2.8b is a lot of money for a feasibility study? its almost as much as profit after tax. is this company wasting too much money and dishing out too much dividend?? what's the angle

Bamburi is giving out huge dividends because the majority owner Lafarge wants to reap as much as possible before things become thick for the company.
Competition is really hitting them left,right and center from the other cement producers upgrading their capacities and grabbing market share.

Kwani? Kusoma ni kazi? They are not fools. The 2.8bn includes the feasibility study AND a waste management system upgrade e.g lorries, loaders, management system and Abu's consultancy fee.

"The deal will see Bamburi, its anchor shareholder Lafarge and the French government invest Sh2.8 billion in funding a feasibility study and providing expertise and equipment to help boost the county’s waste management capacity."

And the French gov't is providing some of the funds. Possibly even LaFarge will do so directly. The Power Plant Project can become a subsidiary of Bamburi with other shareholders e.g. PROPARCO & LaFarge.
The main contribution of Bamburi is the KES 2bn in (unusable) land in addition to the KES 2.8bn & the capacity to absorb the waste. Bamburi already burns used tyres for fuel and the power plant is next to Haller Park. It is hard to re-use an abandoned mine but mark it up to 2bn and use it as the equity contribution for the Waste Power Plant. Smart!

The huge challenge will be to tackle pollution since the Bamburi area has become increasingly a residential/commercial area vs the former industrial/agricultural area.

There's a thread I compared BAMB with ARM back in 2012 I think where I suggested ARM is a better play. Can't recall the thread.

BAMB has been a value trap for a while vs ARM since 2012 as its performance has been dismal to say the least. The real estate bull as well as infrastructure boom is not reflecting in BAMB's results. That still remains a red flag on my radar since it means its competitors are biting off market share from it. Throw in property CGT from 2015 and a limping econ and BAMB doesn't look rosy.

Also for ARM sizable support lies @50-60 zone due to that loan to equity conversion by that nigerian bank.

See this discussion (post 3565) on ARM we had with @mwekezaji - http://investor.wazua.co...amp;m=425583#post425583
