@Housing_Finance of #Kenya FY profit rises 19% to 743m Shillings

That would beat my expectations,i was expecting a flat year or slight dip in profits.
Well, in reality [absent the tax deferred gain] that is what happened...

Same here.


HFCK deferred the payment of KES 190.6 million worth of taxes to future years.

The deferred taxes were brought by the recognition of historical losses by subsidiary Kenya Building Society (KBS) which the HFCK revived last year after more than 15 years in dormancy.

High interest rates [rates jumped from 14% to 28% & though down to 18%] stressed borrowers.
Customer A borrows 1mn & pays 14% per annum in interest. Perhaps even a little principal... Then rates jump to 28% which means 2x interest payments required. Forget the principal repayments. The customer is 'stressed' unless he can find another source of income. What happens is the customer defaults & the bank starts providing [via NPA] for them.

Well, the folks at KRA may disallow the DTA. Look what they did with Coca-Cola bottlers, Bidco & BBK. Could HFCK win? Yes. After spending time & cash.

... and not out of the woods yet. HFCK MD Frank Ireri sees higher inflation in Q1 this year. “Tied to that will be resultant monetary policies in terms of interest rates,” he said. Higher interest rates “would eat into their net interest income” and raise interest expenses as they did in the first half of 2012, Nairobi-based AIB Capital Ltd. has said in an e- mailed note to clients. The high interest rates would also raise the level of NPA.
