Tranny will be back to profit making 2016 moving forward...I wish they shed more light on what they refer to as "strong pipeline of projects"....I wish they also came out publicly about the impending cash call

The grim reaper still lurks around this counter. That USD bond ($75M) which is redeemable next year (March 2016) is going to pile up forex losses on the bottomline.

OUTLOOK

The outlook is positive for our core businesses with a strong pipeline of Engineering projects now underway and a growing order book in our Power Division which will improve the financial performance in the second half of the year through reduction of the order backlog once the copper factory refurbishment is complete.

There are robust growth prospects in both domestic and regional markets including major infrastructure projects both ongoing and planned across the region. The demand for our power products also remains high and is expected to significantly increase with new Government policies and measures on local content in the energy sector.

Has TCL accrued the interest due? As KES craters vs USD, the loan will balloon. I am waiting and watching TCL crash and burn.

Opinion on refinancing of convertible bond

It is likely that holders of TCL’s convertible bond will opt for the repayment of their principal considering that the conversion option is currently out of the money (current conversion price is KES 49.60 compared to TCL’s market price of KES 13.20). Considering the terms of the bond, we had estimated that TCL was to raise at least USD 80.6m (KES 8.3bn) to repay the principal on the USD denominated bond upon its maturity in March 2016 considering that the bond was to redeemed at 133.8% in cash and the outstanding amount stood at USD 60.3m as at 31st December 2015. Our view is that a refinancing of the convertible bond as indicated will limit TCL’s capacity to raise capital for new growth projects for the foreseeable future. On the other hand, we hold a positive view towards the group’s current project pipeline for the infrastructure and engineering segments and plans to raise capital for the same. These projects include a 35MW Menengai power plant where TCL is to have invested USD 5M for 25.0% shareholding, the Lake Turkana Wind Power plant and a 50MW wind power plant in the outskirts of Nairobi where Civicon is a contractor and the recent doubling of E.A. Cables copper manufacturing capacity which should all support the group’s growth. (Source: Company, Kestrel Research)

Still pitying guys who got in at 50 bob at the time of listing. They've lost so much I doubt if there is need for caution.

I will consider this counter at single digit price😂

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
