They need 11bn to pay off an 11bn loan coming due in July 2022.


Their cashflow position not good.


The share price responding accordingly.

Most expensive share in the NSE on a PE basis (30). I wonder why people are willing to buy EABL when better value can be found in other shares.

The ksh.11bn to be paid off;part of it was used to retire the ksh.6 billion medium term note which they were repaying at an interest of 14.95% and the remainder to acquire the additional 30% stake in Serengeti Breweries

Why lend to EABL at 12% when you can lend the government at 13%? Ours is a strange market.

One can buy the 20 year bond, and then sell it after 5 years with little erosion on yield. And bear in mind the infrastucture 20 year bond is a 13% tax free while the yield on EABL one after tax is 10.2%

And bear in mind the infrastucture 20 year bond is a 13% tax free while the yield on EABL one after tax is 10.2% Good point on taxes but can you buy the IFB at 13%? Pricing I have has it at 12.5% at the most
