S.Mutaga III wrote:After she staying in the sidelines for two months, I have finally decided to invest in stocks once again, because I have spotted a good long term opportunity. My first investment of the year will be Kenya Re, starting Monday. Activity 1: Kenya Reinsurance:- It turns out that having a majority shareholding by uncle Sam has some advantages too. Ironically, unlike in other firms, the government is a good business partner in Kenya Re http://www.businessdaily.../-/4r26sdz/-/index.html . The link reveals that it has guaranteed the business of the reinsurer for the next five years. In addition, the valuation of the counter is very low with a single digit P/E. The FY profits have been growing at a good rate in the last three years and despite the low dividend yield, the counter is a good growth stock. I intend to purchase 10,000 shares on Monday at the current price of 18.55. This will be my first investment in 2015. I will update my next buy if an opportunity arises. Happy Hunting 2015 @Mutaga, from your analysis why does this share trade at such a low PE compared to others in the same sector.

Happy Hunting 2015 @Mutaga, from your analysis why does this share trade at such a low PE compared to others in the same sector. 1. High government shareholding 2. Low dividend yield Those are my reasons. You should also note that Kenya Re engages in a special kind of insurance business unlike your typical insurance company. Kenya Re's clients are corporate clients and perhaps investors like businesses whose clients are the mass market AKA Wanjiku. However, the business makes money and I personally hardly care how it makes the money as long as it makes profits every year and its profitability remains in an upward trajectory. I only have a basic understanding of the reinsurance business, nothing beyond the ordinary. A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

Thanks, CIC trades at a PE that is X5 that of Kenya RE and Kennya Re trades at almost a third of the sector PE i know you have said it is not exactly comparable with the other insurance companies i wish we could see how in the past its PE compared with the other insurance companies why does this jubilee government keep such huge shareholding in this company?

I am plunging into Jubilee (sold at 430 thinking I had achieved) CIC is a consideration as it can hit by June and finally Safaricom. I will be accumulating those 3 counters in the coming weeks. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

It sold part of its stake to the public during the Kenya Re IPO. The government loves control especially in companies without another anchor shareholder. In Kenya Re's case, the government is the main shareholder. A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

Past PE's of KRE based on end year prices are;  Time is money, so money is time. Money saved is time gained in reverse! Money stores your life’s energy. You expend your energy, get paid money, and store that money for a future purchase made in a currency.

Happy Hunting 2015 @Mutaga, from your analysis why does this share trade at such a low PE compared to others in the same sector. Reinsurance is the business of insuring insurance policies and Kenya Re is only listed company so you have little to compare with unless you are an industry insider. Reinsurance is a risky technical business and you must first understand the risk profile. What is the risk of the underwritten policies? Kenya Re has a rating of B+ while its competitor Africa Re has A- so Africa Re pulls in more business. Until the day it moves to A rating then the low PE is justified
