Comparatively big volumes moving in the past few days. I wonder what is afoot.

It is Seaboard executing the Greater Fool Theory in perfection. Watch this share very closely over the next seven trading days

may be willing sellers selling to seaboard

Hopefully it will end well but it's looking more and more unlikely

Day 2 of the 7 day exchange bar window and I can tell you that more blood shall ooze on this corner of the NSE streets http://live.mystocks.co.ke/m/stock=UNGA

I think @Obiero worries more about Unga than I do! Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly
Folks (Minorities) will be fine if the status quo is maintained.
Seaboard has made it official re: takeover and it makes sense to look at similar businesses in Kenya and the region as comparables. I believe Unga will be valued at more than 40/- by an independent valuer/advisor.

1H 2017-18 results are due. Last year they were dated 23 Feb 2017 and published the next day.

Turns out GoK hasn't yet paid millers for the subsidised 'Unga' -> State yet to pay millers billions for subsidised flour

Does this mean Unga's recently recently released super profits are understated or overstated?

It's a tough one.

KRA insists that "profits" are booked even if a payment has not been made i.e. Unga cannot write-off/provide, for tax purposes, unpaid amounts until significant efforts are made to recover the debt.
Ask KK or Total about the futility of suing GoK.
CMA went to Finance/Agriculture/NCPB to pay up BUT #ThisIsKenya mta-do?

From a (taxable) profit perspective - Super profits
From a cashflow perspective - overstated

Of course, if GoK pays up soon [Liar Liar Liar ] then it's all good.

Banks also face this dilemma with construction firms with GoK contracts.

Eurobond 2 cash was targeted to repay earlier loans and KPLC. Plus some tenderpreneurs.

Unga is expanding its wheat milling business so maize milling is a sideline. Maize milling in Kenya is untenable coz of the politics. The major benefit of maize milling is the by-product used to make animal feeds.

Good news for Unga
https://www.businessdail...38864-tmka0j/index.html
The availability of quality maize at reasonable prices benefits both the human and animal nutrition divisions of Unga.

Unga prices set to fall below Sh100 on cheap Uganda grain
https://www.businessdail...8598-lm8o6kz/index.html

Good news for Unga as the cost of inputs drop on cheaper grain.
The retail price of flour will also drop but margins may be better. Plus Unga benefits from the "waste" for its animal feeds business.

So why would any Tom buy at 40 or even 39 from the market?

Closing price on Friday was 39.75.
Basically the retail shareholders have been conned.

See who is chairman of the CMA. I think the small share holders should contest to ensure that the minimum payoff is book valuation based on the last financials ( after revaluation of the assets). I think with alot of NOISE the price can be improved, otherwise, a RESISTS from Unga products can make Sea Board get serious on the matter.

The report on Unga valuation which was ordered by CMA should be made public too.

Unga Group (not CMA) ordered the valuation report. Now we wait to see what it said! I wonder if an abridged or full version will be provided in the circular.

I just received an email from CBA on the takeover offer but I had sold my unga shares after the trading suspension had been lifted.
Am I entitled to the offer? @VVS please advise kunaenda aje.

If you sold your shares then why would you expect to be paid again for the same shares?

@vbs urgently submit the same to your broker for reconciliation of that communication to its new owner, being the one who bought your shares
