Analyst brief

KCB Group Plc trades at 86.5 KES. The value pillar scores at the upper end of the scale, anchored on a P/E of 4.6 and earnings yield of 21.6%, which sits 12.6 percentage points above the 364-day T-bill rate of 9.03%; revenue and earnings grew 49.8% year-on-year. Health ranks highly, with an F-Score of 9 out of 9 signals passed. Quality scores toward the middle-upper band, led by a net margin of 34.3% that widened 6.7 percentage points over the observation window; ROE stands at 17.2% while ROA trails at 3.1%, and leverage remains at 4.61× debt-to-equity under financial-sector norms. The dividend pillar scores below midpoint: the bank paid a dividend in one of two observed financial years, with a current yield of 3.5%, though earnings cover it 6.24 times over. Momentum data is still building, having started only in July 2026.

An overall verdict is withheld because the newest financial statement is 22 months old and only two years of history are available—one fewer than required for confidence. The data carries a C confidence grade. Liquidity ranks comfortably, with median daily turnover near 66.3 million KES and no days without trades, though turnover represents only 2.4 basis points of estimated market capitalisation. A fresh annual filing would clarify whether dividend payments have stabilised and provide an up-to-date earnings picture.
