That means I buy at 350/=, right? Yes 300 shares at 350 ea2) How will my dividends be calculated? 100% or prorated (to almost 0% if I join just before the AGM)? depends on when you get in, ref BGL answered this above3) If the dividends are prorated, how does that affect (3) above - i.e. plough back and payout? What if my prorated dividend is not enough to plough back (65%). What then? Do you ask me for top up or I end up with "class B" shares [Highly unlikely!] 4) Am I eligible as a non Safcom individual. Yes tho you may need to be introduced by a member5) What if I want to get out (not that I am planning to)? Is there an exit procedure? share buy back etc. Yes, shares are floated every Tuesday I guess Check out their webpage sic.co.ke Thanks bro. Very helpful. Only thing remaining is my 3rd question.

What if my prorated dividend is not enough to plough back (65%). What then? Do you ask me for top up or I end up with "class B" shares [Highly unlikely!] There is no way your dividend will not be enough to be ploughed back. For example if your dividend is KSH10, then Kshs 6.5 worth of shares will be ploughed back. Remember that SIC provides shares in decimal places. So you might end up with 0.02 sharesBe ignorant and ask a few questions - Peter Drucker

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

On a different note, the method they use to calculate the new price is flawed. It overvalues the share because it does not take cognizance of the money pocketed by the shareholders. Take for example last year. Share price 270/= Dividend: 25% * 270 = 67.5/= Re-invested = 65% * 67.5 = 43.875/=Paid = 35% * 67.5 = 23.625/= From my mathematics: New Price = Old price + reinvested amount = 270 + 43.875 = Ksh 313/= You cannot add the whole 67.5 to get the new price because you have already taken out 23.625/= And even if you use the whole 67.5/= (which you shouldn't) you still get 337.5/=. Go even further and use the whole 27% you still get 342.9/= Not matter how you dice and slice it, you can't get 350/= But with this approach, the current price should be Kshs. 313/= NOT 350/=On the flip side, people immediately re-investing the slaves are making double killing. I don't see why one would EVER take the money.Re-invest and sell almost immediately (if you must) and get approx. 25% more cash!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

I am getting in all the same before the next price hike (February 2016?). I will just work the system to my advantage!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

What if my prorated dividend is not enough to plough back (65%). What then? Do you ask me for top up or I end up with "class B" shares [Highly unlikely!] There is no way your dividend will not be enough to be ploughed back. For example if your dividend is KSH10, then Kshs 6.5 worth of shares will be ploughed back. Remember that SIC provides shares in decimal places. So you might end up with 0.02 shares So they re - invest my 6.5 and probably your 65 and we BOTH end up with shares worth say 425/= each the following year? You are not clear Maich Gents, I have been a member of SIC for 3 yrs , let me attempt to break it down. This year SIC made 27% profit and declared div of 25% of which ratio of div ploughed back: cash payout was 65:35 . Meaning if you had shares worth 100,000 , dividend would be 25,000 of which 16,250 is re-invested (@ Kes 270/share ) and 8,750 is paid cash. You have an option to reinvest the 8,750 (@270/share) . The share price was then revised up by 25% to 350 and instantly your 'slaves 'are worth ,10,970 + 20,312 = 31,282 if you decided to reinvest . Pirate, thank you for your response. Apart from statements is there another way of viewing your account information eg an online account? @murchr what's your email address ? Wanna consult you on something. Thanks in advance Give me yours nyangshe at gmail dot com

Take for example last year.
Share price 270/=
Dividend: 25% * 270 = 67.5/=
Re-invested = 65% * 67.5 = 43.875/=
Paid = 35% * 67.5 = 23.625/=
From my mathematics:
New Price = Old price + reinvested amount
= 270 + 43.875
= Ksh 313/=
You cannot add the whole 67.5 to get the new price because you have already taken out 23.625/=
And even if you use the whole 67.5/= (which you shouldn't) you still get 337.5/=. Go even further and use the whole 27% you still get 342.9/=
Not matter how you dice and slice it, you can't get 350/=
But with this approach, the current price should be Kshs. 313/= NOT 350/=
On the flip side, people immediately re-investing the slaves are making double killing. I don't see why one would EVER take the money.Re-invest and sell almost immediately (if you must) and get approx. 25% more cash!!! Work with 280. The price last year was 280/- not 270/- as stated by pirate "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

Calculations redone using 280/= as advised by @murchrThe method they use to calculate the new price is still flawed. It overvalues the share because it does not take cognizance of the money pocketed by the shareholders. Take for example last year. Share price 280/= Dividend: 25% * 280 = 70/= Re-invested = 65% * 70 = 45.5/=Paid = 35% * 70 = 24.5/= From my mathematics: New Price = Old price + reinvested amount = 280 + 45.5 = Ksh 325.5/= You cannot add the whole 70/= to get the new price because you have already taken out 24.5/= These guys added the whole 70/= to 280/= to get 350/= ignoring the fact that they had already paid out 24.5/= Not matter how you dice and slice it, you can't get 350/= But with this approach, the current price should be Kshs. 325.5/= NOT 350/=And it get worse!!!From these calculations, you should remain with the same number of shares but now worth 325.5/=. But in this case (what they are doing), you end up with more shares, valued at a higher price (350/=)! Simple case: Say you had 10,000 shares worth 280/= Your dividends are 10,000 * 280 * 25% = 700,000/= re-capitalized = 65% * 700,000 = 455,000/= Cash paid = 25% * 700,000 = 175,000/= Number of new shares allocated = 455,000 / 280 = 1,625/= Total Number of Shares = 10,000 + 1,625 = 11,625 Price Changes immediately to 350/=, so now the value of your shares is: 11,625 * 350 = 4,068,750/= Add 175,000 cash and you have 4,068,750 + 175,000 = 4,243,750/=But the real value is (10,000 * 280) + (10,000 * 280 * 25%) = 3,500,000/==> The first bracket is for original value. The second one is for the total prorated profit attributable to your shares. Your shares are now overvalued by 4,068,750 - 3,500,000 = 568,750/=And that is just in the first year! And remember this will be compounded every year. If you re-invest all your earnings:-Number of new shares allocated = 700,000 / 280 = 2,500/= Total Number of Shares = 10,000 + 2,500 = 12,500 Price Changes immediately to 350/=, so now the value of your shares is: 12,500 * 350 = 4,375,000/= Your shares are now overvalued by 4,375,000 - 3,500,000 = 875,000/=Then compound that annually. They need a mathematician down there if not a finance guy!!!Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

If you are a Mumias shareholder, would you be okay if the MD woke up one day and "re-evaluated" the share price to 15/= (Assuming it was allowed) - and assuming your plan is not to sell? Please note: They made 25% (or is it 27%) in profit. How do you end up with 50% return on investment??? Where does the rest of the money come from. You can never have return on investment being double the actual profit made. Not unless someone is printing money!!! Never count on making a good sale.

Well that is true however the question should be is the share price overvalued , sustainable based on their current asset base , ongoing projects and what SIC is transforming to ? Maybe a financial analyst can have a look at their financial reports and see if the share price is overvalued ( which in my last analysis was not) Note also that like UNAITAS , SIC have capped the share drive to 1.5B , so by end of next year there will be no more monthly contribution or share purchase. http://www.sic.co.ke/ind...5:2014-financial-report

Haya wazuans. We have two opinions on the table. Mine and @pirate's. Ongezeni zenu tafadhali. You all know what we end up with in Wazua is always more than the total of the parts. Thanks @pirate for the info and opinions. Will be joining you, @murchr and others kabla mzime taa! Actually the information you guys have given might just make me bring my entry point forward. There is nowhere else I know I will take my money and I get pregnant kids (slaves) who will give birth immediately and the price of the the parents, the kids and the grand kids get "re-evaluated" immediately!!! Plans might need to be changed. Reviewing plans..... Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
