Analyst brief
WPP ScanGroup's value pillar ranks at the top end of the 0–100 scale, driven by a P/E of 1.9 and earnings yield of 53.5% that sits 44.5 percentage points above the 364-day T-bill rate. Revenue and earnings grew 20.5% year-on-year. The quality pillar sits in the lower-middle range, hampered by a ROE of 5.2% and net margin of 5.7%, though margins improved 1.1 percentage points over the observation window and revenue never declined. Health scores toward the middle: an F-Score of 7 out of 9 signals passed, but interest coverage of 3.5× carries material leverage risk. Dividend is non-existent—no payout in either of the two observed financial years.
The stock trades at KES 1.98 as of 2 November 2026. An overall verdict is withheld because the newest financial statement is 22 months old and only two years of history exist (three required for baseline confidence). Momentum data has been building since July 2026 and remains incomplete. Liquidity is thin: median daily turnover approximates KES 82,562 over 64 observed days. Confidence grades C due to age and brevity of history; a fresh filing or extended earnings track record would alter the picture materially.
