BAT is trading on a P/E of 11 and historically it has a P/E of 18-20..

It has a dividend yield of 9% and historically it has a 6.5% dividend yield..

Dont forget expansion into South Sudan and Rwanda... I expect 2012 profits to be up 50-70%...

Going by these I think BAT ought to be trading at 500bob a share...

The only reason i actually hold this thing is because every single buddy of mine is a chain smoker... smile

Investors are taking positions on BAT due to the following reasons:-

1. Interim dividend

2. BAT is an exporter-it is most likely to benefit from a weak Shilling.

Not this reason.. The interim dividend is usually a tiny 3.50 which is only 1% yield!!

At Ksh.390 today (05.07.2012) where is BAT headed to? Last year they published their half year results on 08.07.2011.
