Nobody talks about CFC anymore. There was a time it was a pet topic here. What happened?
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

[quote=earthvoice]Interesting news - looks rosier for KCB than for KK:
@earthvoice. I didn't understand the PE bit. KK's PE being10 and Total's 19 makes KK better in terms of growth prospects. ama?

@jerry: not quite; to use the author's own words, "this means investors are expecting Kenol’s profit to grow by a maximum of 11 per cent compared to 20 per cent for Total."

Wasn't quite aware of just how bad KK's litigation woes were; no wonder its share price has stagnated. With no end in sight, the 3K's are now down to two: KPLC or KCB??

@earthvoice. Thanx. I think the low KK's PE gives it a chance for capital gains though it may have no real growth prospects.

The delayed listing of the insurance arm may have had an effect

@youCan't... It's relative growth in profit when compared to Total. See post #22 above. I've 45% KK in my portfolio and so I see some growth in it.

I agree with that assessment. On the other hand I wish I had cash right now to get onto the eabl band wagon at 185/-

BBI will solve it

According to BD article, oil marketers are expecting more profits last year than in 2009 in spite of the price controls. The higher prices last year resulted in lower volumes and net improved profits for the marketers. KK made a loss of 431M in 2k9 and a profit of more than 1B in first half of 2010. They managed a dividend of KES 0.325 in 2009. What can we expect in results for last yr?

Brent up past $100 & expected to go up coz of the Egypt revolt. Awaiting to see how kk is going to safeguard itself from these shocks keeping in mind that as investors what we are buying are simply the future profits.

@2012 how can you go with EABL?? Mututho has guaranteed lower revenues, profits, dividends and shareprice...

The guys who were buying at 220 will be burnt for a long time to come...

EABL will weather the Mututho Laws.They are well diversified and thru Southern sudan they will be able to grow their profits

I love the uncertainty. Therein lies the big risks and big gains.

Kenya is still their biggest revenue earner so it will take a number of years to replace this with other markets... They must suffer for a number of years if the law remains

The reduction in revenue will be compensated by returns in southern.In the short run i.e 1 to 2 years is when they will suffer

I tend to agree with this article,the price control did not stifle the margins the oil marketers were making it actually made the margin higher.Take for instance kerosene ,b4 the price control kerosene was retailing btwn ksh. 58-65 range then the regulator said it should not go beyond ksh 75/= now the marketers are selling kerosene at btwn ksh.70-75 range.I hav not factored the other products,this shows the marketers are making a killing from government regulation.

@selah but the margins in diesel and petrol have been hit seriously plus crude oil is rising above 100$...

KK must suffer from this but I know their 2010 profits will be good which might take the share price to 14-15 but the CEO's statement on his outlook for 2011 might change this

@guru,explain what you mean by margins being hit.On the issue of rising crude, as has been said before,the monthly adjustments as per the ERC formula will take care of that at the pump.
