What is the likelihood of being bought off by Treasury?

I give my estimation as follows:


1. KQLC - 50%;

Pros-
- Banks have greater negotiating power;
- Uthamaki stake in a lender bank;
- Nationalization support by management;
Also there is probably some sort of agreement that GoK signed to get the banks (esp Equity) to agree to the Debt:Equity Swap

Cons-
- GOK is broke;

2. Minority Shareholders - 30%.

Pros-
- Benefit from buy out of the banks;
- Avoid public backlash and lawsuits; Who will sue who? Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly
The current board? The prior board? Naikuni? GoK?
If one bought KQ shares without reading the Financial Statements, Annual Reports and Wazua then apambane na hali yake

Cons-
- GOK is broke;
- Nobody cares for Wanjiku;
- Lawsuits whichever way.


The money required to effect the buyout is peanuts for GoK.. Remember we are on a KES 3T budget

“The two tonnes capacity for the flower exporters is just a drop in the ocean as compared to the current market demand of more than 10 tonnes. If what we are delivering in New York is a small quantity, it will not be able to create the necessary hype around the Kenyan flower brand,” said Tulezi.
The Kenya Flower Council said it is engaging the Trade PS Dr. Chris Kiptoo who promised to bring onboard his Transport counterpart Esther Koimett, to discuss the matter before engaging the Kenya Airways.
Currently, KQ’s is the only direct flight to the US from Kenya and its cargo space is always fully booked leaving exporters to use connecting flights which have high risks and adversely affect the quality of the produce upon arrival to the designated markets.


kq should take this opportunity before a competitor comes in


They should have rekitted the 777-300ER and roll a dice


Haha, looks like the massive capital wipeout you've faced hasn't phased you. If that plane was brought back we'd start heading back to 2015 numbers


2015 figures were partly due to the massive fraud unearthed by the forensic audit. Even fuel was being stolen. With an expanded network that plane can serve KQ very well. No major difference with the -200ER KQ operated for a decade.

Do not rely so much on Ngunze’s shallow arguments and decisions. He had no expertise in aviation at all.

Exactly. Over 300 seats but on specific long haul it would have worked.. At least one or two.. But three of the craft was too ambitious


Ummh for example which routes?

Joburg, Mumbai and Dubai.. Just wing it!


KQ is massively losing passengers on all those routes... Competition is real.

I can't believe @obiero averaged down on this stock.

You better believe it boss.. Now we await the buy out but only after the rights issue AKA Open Offer.. I will personally take GoK to court if they attempt a squeeze out
Applause Applause Applause Please do. We are behind you with our moral support.
Let me mark this post. Applause Applause Applause

Here is your interview @vvs AKA Aly Khan Satchu


Pkosing is winning me over. I think this model will work best for KQ at this moment. If we are going to look at it as a national asset then this makes some sense. GoK better be ruthless when buying out the existing shareholders, this is not a birthday party.

They will be extra cautios because one of the two men holds stakes in two tier I banks under KQLC and the other banks involved are all tier I hence need to keep working operational links positive
