Chief Executive Officer Performance

The company's performance for the year ended 30 June 2026 slightly dropped by 22.8% to Kshs. 9.8 Million as compared to the year ended 30 June 2025. This was because the company restructured it's operations hence terminating leases with some of the tenants. The direct costs also increased to Kshs. 56 Million

compared to the year ended 30 June 2025. This resulted in a loss for the year of Kshs. 46 Million compared to Kshs. 40 Million loss in 2025.

Future Outlook

The Board and Management's key objective continues to be focusing on improving the company's financial performance through diversification in other revenue generating avenues and improving in the operational efficiency through the costs management. The principal shareholder has also continuously provided financial support to the group throughout the years.
