NSE 2027 projection:
I expect the Kenyan equities market to face a massive pullback as election uncertainty builds.
I believe the selling pressure could start as early as Q4 2026.
When fear creates mispricing I want to have cash ready to buy quality companies at discount.

—The interim dividend was raised 50% to KES 3.75 per share from KES 2.50.
—CEO John Gachora attributed the performance to higher business volumes, improved margins and sustained customer activity under the UBUNTU strategy, despite inflationary pressure and cautious regional monetary policy.
—Nedbank’s tender offer was oversubscribed by 21%, with acceptances covering 121% of the shares sought for its proposed controlling 66% stake in NCBA.
Nedbank’s offer to acquire 66% of NCBA closed with tenders covering 1.316B shares, equivalent to 79.90% of the bank’s issued shares, leaving the offer materially oversubscribed and requiring scaling and allocation.
—Shareholders submitted pro-rata acceptances for 920.7M shares, representing 55.88% of NCBA, alongside excess applications for a further 395.7M shares, equivalent to 24.02%.
—Nedbank requires only 166.7M of the excess shares submitted to reach its targeted 1.087B shares, implying an aggregate acceptance rate of about 42.1% for excess applications.
—The remaining ~229.0M excess shares that are not accepted will remain with the respective shareholders, while cash consideration will be paid only for shares ultimately allocated to Nedbank.
—Each shareholder who tendered shares will receive a notification from the 10th trading day after settlement confirming the final number accepted, with Nedbank expected to hold 66% of NCBA and other shareholders retaining 34%.
—The transaction is expected to complete by the end of Q3 or early Q4 2026, subject to the remaining regulatory conditions, while NCBA will remain listed on the NSE.

Recommendation : Call @WaruhiuFranklin for advise on other things like capital allocation, expected returns, continuous support etc.
@savvy_hisa Both Carbacid and BOC are good companies which pay attractive dividends.
After receiving BOC Kenya dividends we usually rotate capital to Carbacid.
Carbacid had plans to acquire/buyout BOC but the deal was halted...
HFCK is currently trading at 10.45 today. HFCK is the bank to watch in 2027.
It is a high conviction stock. Go heavy on HFCK!
About 1 month ago, we recommended accumulating HFCK in the 8.50 - 9.10 range. We are currently up +15% in one month alone.
We expect a massive rally to the 13 - 15 range in 2027 supported by a record FY2026 PAT of approximately KES 2.2B in the bank's history and resumption of dividend payments.
The management raised its FY2026 PAT guidance to KES 2.49B (our expectation is KES 2.2B).
HFCB Group CEO Robert Kibaara said that resuming dividend payments is closer than previously expected (earlier than FY2027) and the decision now hinges primarily on the board's approval. The company has a dividend policy of around 40% payout.
We are very bullish on HFCK. Did you position yourself early in the 8.50 - 9.10 range?
