Tran-nationwide express had a relative moderate year, with an average 0f #803million in revenue and #5.04million in profit.

A closer look at the report shows that Direct cost driven by high direct operating cost, freight expenses and logistic expenses impacted negatively on the revenue as against the same period in 2015. Direct cost was 44.83% of sales in 2016 while it was 38.91% in 2015. This reduced the gross profit and cascaded down to the bottom line.

We also observed that total asset declined by 13.97% and this was due to trade receivable that declined by 9.71% and other receivables that declined by 34.74%. The implication of the above is that the company is not playing with its debtor, it is raking in money as possible as it can.

Courier business should pick up with the improvement in the economy and we expect Tran-nationwide express to benefit.

The stock closed at 99k today 29th March,2017. with a dividend yield of 5.05%.
