The Revenue Reserves are already an integral part of Shareholders Capital. I do not know why they need to change that?
In any event, it only moves 700mn x 2.50 = 1.75bn (out of 22bn) from RR to SC.
Share capital jumps from ksh.1.75bn (700mn *2.5) to ksh.7bn (2.8bn*2.5)
Ksh.5.25bn is what is being moved
Oops! Yes.
700mn x 3 x 2.5 = 5.25bn (out of 22bn in RR). Why even bother given the RRs are part of Total Shareholder Funds?
Increase in share capital is to grow the business bigger,look at the accompanying note that says they are to open a subisdiary in Uganda.
The money being released from the Revenue Reserve will be used to setup the subisdiary.
Some of the countries they are opening subsidaries the regulators are demanding higher capital
