I sure hope KQs top management do read this post;lots of insight on how to re-engineer their operations.

All in all,a thorough review of pricing algorithms and hedging and lease agreements should partly work in alleviating the current situation.

Lakini a bailout using our money should not always be the solution when corporate governance goes south and greed takes over sober minds.

@Obiero i like your optimism, but your shareholder value is about to either get wiped out or severely diluted.I would sell into any dead cat bounce and then buy back in after the company has been restructured and hopefully by managers who have real experience bringing back airlines from bankruptcy.

Our people must first dress well and come out presentable before we can take pride in them.

Watch it very closely @harrydre.. Something must give.. The exchange bar gentleman opine that @mbuvingunze decided to pack in all 'historical' losses into the full year results so as to move with reduced baggage. With sale of the obsolete craft, Embakasi land, coupled with weaning of unprofitable international routes via reduced frequency, increased local travel via Jambojet, oil savings via newer efficient planes; a profit for H1 is assured. Thank me later

Facts:
1) The old aircraft have not been sold. So they continue 'depreciating' in value as they wait to be sold.
2) The debts are not going anywhere. They need to be serviced.
3) Has the land been sold? What value is the land being carried at in the books?
4) Lower fuel prices. Good news for Emirates that doesn't hedge.

In the meantime, my KK released 1H results...

1) Not selling assets (excluding normal PPE disposals) anymore Applause [Stations acquired in Rwanda and Burundi are being rehabbed]
2) Debts reduced Applause [Gearing Ratio down to 50% despite selling 8% more volume] as have interest costs Applause Applause [down 43%]
3) Lower fuel prices means higher GPM (no hedging) in 2H Applause Applause Applause
4) Did I mention that KK could hit 3bn PBT for 2015? Applause Applause Applause Applause

Facts:
1) The old aircraft have not been sold. So they continue 'depreciating' in value as they wait to be sold.
Depreciated has to be provided and unless there is real obsolescence the values are carrying book values, depreciation is to ensure prudence in reporting and management is not bound to sell the aircraft at depreciated values if going market rates are higher. The sale if actualized will generate the much needed cash flow -it may be at a gain compared to the already depreciated/book values
2) The debts are not going anywhere. They need to be serviced. True, but cash flows from the disposals if actualized can help

3) Has the land been sold? What value is the land being carried at in the books?? I suppose Fair value has been used since land is meant for sale otherwise historical cost.

4) Lower fuel prices. Good news for Emirates that doesn't hedge.. Whatโ€™s was the duration for the hedges, the hedge positions are periodically reviewed (may have reduced), this according to a past CEOโ€™s TV interview (citizen)
