1H results do not require a Profit Warning since these are unaudited results. 2H expected to be better BUT the PER gives me nightmares!


@VVS this thing makes Home Afrika look extremely cheap on a relative forward basis!

Though ScanGroup has a real business. WPP knew about the 1H 2013 loss yet went ahead & bought more shares at a 30% premium + a share swap. I am staying far away from HAFR until it touches 8-ish levels. Even then, I prefer KK at 8-ish vs HAFR.

I can see why KK at 8/= is a fair buy.

I would say the same for SCAN below 40/= noting track record, WPP capital, CEO. Did you know that SCAN makes one-third of entire group revenues from 4 clients? (Safaricom, EABL, Unilever, Reckit)

Now HomeAfrika d'oh!
...may make the @guru speculative money like MSC. My lack of abilities directs me to keep off both stocks for a long while.

Politics is the main reason for the massive decline in HY13 EPS. Company dint benefit from the political boom. If anything, the political boom scared away Scangroup business
