UNASHIG's Share Price and Market Valuation of Holdings Quoted on the Nairobi Securities Exchange _ March 5th, 2021

This blog post is created to give easier and wider access to a selection of day-to-day changes in the 'pegged' market price of Unashig's outstanding (i.e. issued) CA and CB shares. We have hitherto conversed on this and certain related matters almost exclusively on WhatsApp. Unashig's presence in a more expansive terrain should sooner or later prove more interactive and even more beneficial. 

The most recent market data, appearing as a synopsis on this page, refer to March 5th, 2021. Information on certain earlier dates is also simultaneously availed for the benefit of those who may find value in the short-term, and perhaps longer-term, trends implied therein.

Other archival data may subsequently be added to this page, or posted separately. Future price changes will feature, in one format or another, in future posts or on other platforms.

Friday, March 5th, 2021: Company's Share Price and Market Capitalization at Close of Day:

At close of trading day at the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) on Friday, March 5th, the market price of a Unashig share (whether a CA or a CB share) -- as derived from the market value of the company's portfolio of securities quoted on the NSE -- rose slightly to KES 2,224.80 (or US$ 20.30 at the prevailing exchange rate). This represented a capital gain of 11.24% (which was a little higher than the previous day's 11.14%) over the par value of either class of shares of KES 2,000/- (or US$ 18.25 at the prevailing exchange rate). Counting from the beginning of 2019, the average gain was thus 5.62% per year.

Unashig's market capitalization was likewise higher than it was the previous day. It stood at KES 6,278,633.50 (or US$ 57,286.80 at the prevailing exchange rate), compared to the previous day's KES 6,272,971.50. However, the number of issued shares stayed at 2,822.11.

KES 2,224.80 (or US$ 20.30) was the new price at which one CA or CB share could be bought -- until the market posted a new price at the close of the trading day the following Monday.
