Mixed bag of results... On the one hand you have EPS surprising positively and DPS/bonus surprising negatively!

Imho Great for long term holders and BAD for short term traders!

Im sure they are preserving profits for the new building instead of harrassing us with rights issues!! Applause

@G267, When I saw your prediction of results on the KenyaRe thread, I actually thought you were being over-optimistic and I did not even expect them to hit your EPS projection. I must say I am positively surprised by the EPS growth and the EPS figure itself.

I have not seen the actual results yet to discern the quality of the results but I hope that the huge increase in EPS is from growth in premium revenue and NOT so much from change in fair value of investment property and/or disposals of land/buildings.

Kenya re has never recorded change in fair value of investments in its income statement! This means the NSE has absolutely no impact on Kenya re's EPS!

I think we need a policy on dvd. Low dividend avoids excrssive corporate tax though. Bonus would also do the trick.

My issue is with changes in valuation of investment properties and disposals, not on quoted equity (see my comments highlighted below). Basically, I would wish to confirm sustainability of the earnings model.

Mgt expending 40% more ought to be more considerate to owners/shareholders of the company.
