KCB Q3 2018;
Profit before tax at ksh.25.6bn 14% growth compared to previous year

The Group’s balance sheet improved by 6% to Sh684.2B from Sh643.8B in 2017, with deposits growing by a similar margin to Sh526.8B from Sh496.3Bn.
Net loans and advances were up 4% to Sh435.3B from Sh419.5B while long term funding stood at Sh20.7B from the previous period’s Sh14.4B.

Investment in Government and other securities grew to ksh.119.7bn compared to 103.6bn in a similar period last year

Great news @ericsson



Subjective profit here. Subjective in that it is derived from the subjective assessment of loan loss provision.

If one was to compare with equity, it would have to be done on the basis of interest income and not profit.


Otherwise, we cross fingers for a good dividend this year and pray that the provision will not be subjectively revised upwards in the future.

IFRS 9 used as the measure in provision determination.. If massive recoveries have been effected through auctions, why would simba not reduce its provisions


Apples to apples KCB LLP in H1 = 18.2B
Equity= 5.9B


I am yet to see KCBs Q3 but one of the reasons I sold EQTY was their profit increased as the NET NPL exposure from H2 to Q3 increased from 267m to 2.4B. I felt this was just to spruce up the numbers.

Also annualized EPS KCB 7.9 vs 5.3 for EQTY yet EQUITY trades at a higher price.

Simba is going strong! Solid numbers these are

Exactly. Also apples to apples is the total asset book for KCB vs EQTY and the composition of the respective books. Plus IBL is about to be absorbed

EABL EPS=7 & change and price is 170/- I know industry and blah blah but just making an observation

KCB has about 3Bn issued shares. EABL around 0.7Bn issued shares. These numbers are one of the factors that affect share price hence the difference you have noted.

True. It's the shares issued that primarily drives the pricing in that comparative example

What explanation did they give for the increase in NNPL? I haven't had the time to pore through those numbers.

I'm definitely not a fan of the latest round of slashing provisions to boost the bottom line contrary to macro winds. That said, I still favour Equity over Kcb as it has a more amenable balance sheet is defensive (liquidity preference) for the time being but can easily be flipped to pro-risk as and when such is necessitated by the market.

Hmmm am I reading this right? According to Q3 unaudited result, there was a 1/- dividend declared? https://kcbgroup.com/wp-...ancials_Publication.pdf

I haven’t heard them declare it. Was this a typo?
