3. Operating Profits
In the just ended financial year, operating profits registered impressive growth from Kshs 17.6m in 2020 to Kshs 195.7m in the current
period. The growth in profits was driven by a combination of healthy topline growth and focus on cost efficiencies.
4. Members rebates
Our strong financial performance in the year has enabled us to propose rebates of Kshs 117.4m to our members for the period ended
31st December 2021 which represents significant improvement from Kshs 12.1m declared in the previous year. Once approved at the
AGM, the rebates will be distributed to members within the month of February 2022.
5. Balance Sheet and Cash-flows
In order to position our Co-operative for future opportunities, we have continued to focus on activities that strengthen our balance
sheet and during the year, total assets grew to Kshs 5.2b representing 7% growth over the previous year. Our cash-flows also
improved in the year as evidenced by growth in cash and cash equivalents to Kshs 172.5m compared to Kshs 151.8m last year.

10. Budget
The budget for 2022 and 2023 is presented on page 46. This budget takes into account the aggressive growth assumptions as
contained in our 3-year strategic plan. Delivery of this budget will be supported by the new organization design and business
model which are the outcomes of the strategy refresh done during the year.
Conclusion
As the global economies recover from the negative effects of Covid-19, we are confident that Kenya’s economic outlook will
equally improve and this will provide us with a conducive environment to deliver on our strategy that will guarantee better returns
to our members. I wish to encourage our members to continue being good ambassadors for our brand including patronizing our
products.
Finally, I thank our members, customers, fellow Board members, our staff and various stakeholders whose positive contribution
continue to guarantee our growth.

2. Key achievements
Our key objective has remained the resolution of issues impacting customers
premised on the belief that restoration of their confidence in our organization
remains a key driver to the future financial success of SIC. This has been demon-
strated by the fact that following the resolution of some of the problematic
projects, the customers affected have become the organization’s biggest
advocates and ambassadors leading to increased sales. Referrals remain our
biggest contributors to sales and therefore it is crucial that promises made, and
obligations owed to existing and past customers are met.
Having closed on the projects that were facing straightforward issues in 2020,
HPL then embarked on dealing with the challenges that were relatively more
complicated. Overall, HPL focused on two fronts in 2021.
Meeting the Co-operative’s obligations to the customers through the
delivery of titles or relocation to alternative properties.
Securing the ownership of SIC assets
With the support of the Board and all staff, the task-force was able to
deliver the following key achievements in the year: Heightened positive sentiment towards the organization
