based on the high profits they posted last year, i dont think they would have been able to match that growth.

To me its undertandable after the record over 500% last time,they could not match that.

Mmmmh. With the expected drought, mumias shouldn't experience transporting problems this half year.....if that was really the problem.....if comesa wasn't looming over this counter. Id wait for the market to react to this H1 news, drive the share down. Then buy and hold for a year.

The saviour for MSC will neither come from Co-gen nor Ethanol businesses. Those are minor contribution to the bottomline of the company. MSC will will thrive if they get it right at the Tana river basin. That is the only time they will be a competitor regionally.

@ pkoli, I share the same sentiments with you. The management should do all they can to get this TARDA thing off the ground.
Time is money, so money is time. Money saved is time gained in reverse! Money stores your life’s energy. You expend your energy, get paid money, and store that money for a future purchase made in a currency.

@Pkoli,
Co-gen as a stream may not make much money but where i have seen them work well especially in India and Brazil,the word is efficiency.At least MSC should be moving alongside to do away with old steam turbines and opt for VFD drives which are much cheaper to maintain while steam thus goes to power generation.The ethanol plant is not as small a revenue stream but i do agree that TARDA will be the ultimate although on a first come basis,i would wish to see the Ethanol plant going,an acquisition (Nzoia comes to mind) and finally move on to TARDA.My two Zim cents

I'm praying for guys holding this share...

Im i the only one feeling greedy of mumias at current prices and the possibly lower prices to come? Looking at it as an investment for next 2-3yrs. I mean, they are down now, but they will most likely turn their fortunes around. TARDA will become operational, in the near future. They will survive comesa, international sugar prices favouring them now and may do so still in the future. Their future is a bit uncertain, but there's more than a light at the end of the tunnel. Its not another eveready or sameer. Lets see how far it can fall.

My fears about the price going below 9/- are now confirmed faster than anticipated! Even to a contrarian like @deal, you have to let this one bleed for a while longer before attempting to catch the falling knife.

I sold @3.50 at a loss during the recession. I'll touch MSC at below 5/=.
