Analyst brief
Standard Group trades at 6 KES with an earnings yield of 10.2%, sitting above the 364-day T-bill rate of 9.03%. The value pillar scores toward the upper end, anchored by a P/B ratio of 0.13 and P/E of 9.8, though earnings and revenue declined 27.9% year-on-year, which tempers that strength. Health and quality pillars remain weak: the F-Score of 4 out of 9 signals passed, interest coverage stands at 1.2× (a tight margin), ROE is 1.4%, and net margin is 0.6%. The company paid no dividend in either of the two observed fiscal years. Momentum data carries only four months of history and remains incomplete.
An overall verdict is withheld due to low confidence. The newest financial statement is 22 months old, and only two years of history exist where three are needed for reliable scoring. The company trades thinly—median daily turnover is approximately 11,655 KES—which may limit execution for larger trades. A fresh filing would clarify whether the sharp earnings decline has stabilized or deepened.
