ARM have finally released results;
Loss after tax increased from 2.8B in 2016 to 7B in 2017.
EPS reduced from -2.92 in 2016 to -6.83 in 2017.
Horrible results; no wonder they released them when the market is closed. Speculators who have been playing with fire...get fire proof blankets because by the time the T + 3 rule at NSE avails share for you to dispose, the price will most likely be much lower. It had already started stagnating by yesterday so it will most likely head south when the market opens on Monday.

Meaning there is no company but a debt to be paid not counting shareholders stake "Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning."

You watch them rot over the next few days all the time offering a lower and lower price and still no one will touch them! HAFR taught me that Start!

So ARM is more efficient than Mombasa, EAPCC and Savannah ie it has 13.5% market share for 1mn ton capacity. National has just 8% for 1mn tons. Mombasa has 1.6mn tons while EAPCC has 1.3mn tons capacity but the market share for Mombasa isn’t much higher. Why does EAPCC have 15% market share, the same as Savannah which has 1.5mn tons? Is it more efficient? Bamburi has 15% market share per 1mn tons. The most productive of the lot. Of course, there are many nuances. Quality eg Bamburi supplies the bulk of cement for SGR. Some producers may sell less (high quality) cement at higher prices or at higher margins. An interesting table. Greedy when others are fearful.

Cash call in t he offing by looking for more strategic partners. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”
