That's almost 4% of the (outstanding) shares so a premium is warranted depending on the potential of Unga for such a large chunk available at one go.
- PER of (below) 10 (at 35) with growth prospects
- NAV of 42+ (possibly undervalued)
- Undervalued assets? [Land, Buildings]
- Sale of Bullpak will bring in cash [How much?]
- Uganda assets [the minority shareholders were bought out]
- Growing economies [Kenya & Uganda] and urban population
- Comparisons to peers in West Africa and South Africa
- Potential takeover target? [Tiger Brands tried to buy out a Mill & Bakery]
There are no publicly listed milling firms in Kenya (or East Africa) so it is difficult to make a comparison on values. The closest was the offer by Tiger ($25mn) for Rafiki Millers and Magic Ovens.
