Great company, quality management. Look at that increase in investment income plus a growing share of results from associates and you can gauge how careful these guys are in their investment selection. Once the company grows, their dividend payments will eventually grow. I also like the way finance costs have been managed.
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.

Quality Management. I remain a fan of the Aga Khan firms.
Even Nation/NMG is doing well despite the challenges in the sector.
Serena/TPS is expanding (for the future) while things are looking grim but it remains a well-managed firm.
DTB as you know is a star performer over the years.

why are guys clapping, this industry is sick, the results show there is no money to be made in underwriting. If all money is coming from investments, they should convert into an investment firm then. Nani ameona statement of cashflow

There is chap called Warren Buffett. Nice guy. And his buddy is Charles Munger. A curmudgeon. They do this comedy show every year (early May) in Omaha, Nebraska, USA. Check it out.

Wonderful company. I don't remember seeing a profit drop in recent years

A 10% bonus without the share price blinking is not a tiny divided. At the current price of sh540 it is 54+8.50= 62.50 per share divided should be the highest in nse.

I wanted to make a snide comment but perhaps the chap is lost.

A bonus is not a dividend. It is simply a slice cut from the same cake. You get more but thinner slices. Psychology.
If you owned 20% of Jubilee & got a 1:10 (10%) bonus you still own 20% of Jubilee. If the bonus was 1:1 (100%) you still own 20%.

Some firms don't pay dividends. Centum. Berkshire Hathaway. Let's discuss BH. It has split its (A to B & also B) shares on occasion. No dividend. It's cash holdings exceed Kenya's GDP.

Uchumi announced a dividend. Jubilee announces very small dividends. Which firm has outperformed over the past 10 even 20 years?

Many firms 'preserve' cash to reinvest in their businesses. Jubilee is one of them. Conservative firm. The Chairman is a major shareholder of Jubilee. I like that. Skin in the game.

Is it not the value the shareholder gets at the end that matters. The combination of share price appreciation including bonus and dividends would be my interest in my investment.

Yes. At the end of the day what most investors want is TOTAL RETURN. That's a combination of dividends & value of shares. Jubilee has chosen the conservative path of preserving cash to reinvest instead of paying dividends & going for Rights Issues.

I am NOT advocating anyone buys Jubilee coz it is NOT cheap but I have seen it do very well for shareholders who bought it 20 years ago and held on to the shares. My goal is to buy the next Jubilee before folks find out it is the next Jubilee.

Pan africa maybe. Anyway if the bears come to town proper you can get jubilee at 1.3-1.5 of NAV (245 according to SIB)

We,the proud shareholders of JUB are never worried by the bear.We are the bears.Even if the price slumps to 200,I will buy more.But I won't do any selling.And during the last AGM,one shareholder opposed the splitting of the shares.However,I think JUB should stop paying divindeds and invest all its cash.

I am not a fan of South African management so no PAFR for me. Jubilee owns lots of equities and the solid management loves bear markets so they can go on a shopping spree. I would buy Jubilee like I buy roasted maize if I could get them at 200.
