Athi River Mining Cement PLC is under liquidation after two years of being in administration. The company’s administrators have now been appointed as liquidators.
The company was placed under administration in August 2018. Its shares are currently suspended from the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE). They last traded at 5.5 shillings (82.8%) below the lowest stock option exercise price of 32 shillings.

The liquidators will soon invite expression of interest (EoI) from prospective bidders for the sale of the cement company.
