I have just received my info memo for the upcoming listing of CFC Insurance Holdings and have noted the following errors:

1] On page 4, the listing date is given as 1 April 2011; yet under "Definitions' (page 11), the listing date is defined as "21 April 2011 at 10.00am".

2] On page 18, section 7.4.1, it states that Mr J G Kiereini holds 5,268,303 shares in the company representing a nominal value of Sh32,436,942. However, section 7.2 [page 17] says that "the company has a norminal share capital .... divided into ordinary shares of Sh1.00 each..." How does Mr Kiereini's 5,268,303 shares translate into Sh32,436,94 of norminal value?

Has anyone picked up others?

I think how this is received by the market will set the stage on how the British American IPO in June will be received.

BBI will solve it

The stock is likely to tank if what is currently happening in the market is anything to go by.

Sh17 was totally unexpected!

I thought it would open at about 7 and then the market would flood and push it down to 6...

But have you seen what happened to CFCSH? I thought people were waiting for the insurance business to be removed before buying into the bank...

Adding the two prices takes us back to around sh75

@vituz my thoughts exactly. It will be trading at the access range soon. Too much premium in the price.

I must admire the guy who dumped at 94. He can pick the bank now at 59, wait for the excitement of the insurance to die down, pick at 10, total 69. 25 made per share - that is wicked.

@ GG its so easy to make money in cfc. Mr market has never made up his mind on its valuation. I believe the combined business is worth over kes 100.

@Mukiha, I have been trying to mount a defense in the face of a serious cross-examination by the deal regarding my views on CFCIH as being over-priced.

I have cited 2010 FY results as published in the papers. On the other hand, he has referred to YOU as the source of his info(incorrect in my view).

I have tried to establish where you got your half year EPS of 0.54 for 2010 as I have not seen it anywhere in the Information Memorandum. I have noted that the Half Year 2010 PAT attributable to ordinary shareholders was Kshs 169,929,000 which works out to Kshs 0.33. This info was also published in the Daily Nation on 31st August 2010. The IM however indicates H1 EPS as 0.37. I suppose the difference could be in the number of weighted average shares.

I am curious. Pray, do tell, where did you get your figure of an EPS of 0.54?
