They released their 1st quater result with PAT of about 242% change and their PE ratio as at today is 17.24 (cheapest in banking)
They are out to raise only N50B with only 3.7B shares and out of this 1.5B will go for right at N12.5 and 2.?B for public at N14.
I started monitoring this bank when its share price was n9 and bought little and I think it is becoming interesting.
Anyway I ordered for more on the floor today because i will like to buy more of the right and also have 35k dividend. I am sure that after this offer which will be oversubscribed,they will push up the price and come back to market at a higher rate (say n20 - n25) to raise bigger money and that is exactly what UBA will do. They will build their PE up and push up the price and come back to market at N4?
It is actual better to sell less shares at high price than to selling more at lower price. Anyway SKYBANK is a short and medium term buy.
I hate to burst your bubble but just to state the facts.

The forward PE for UBA (16.14), Oceanic (17.97) and Wema bank (15.35)are lower than that of Skye Bank (20.98) even after factoring in dilution of shares from the respective POs.

I diluted Wema Bank by 30% and included the listed PO shares for Oceanic and UBA.
