@growthchaser: KSh 1 MILLION IN EQUITY BANK 2 YEARS AGO… WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE TODAY? If you invested KSh 1,000,000 in Equity Bank shares in October 2024, how much would your investment be worth in October 2026? And how much would you have earned from dividends alone? In this video, I break down the numbers step by step to show how a KSh 1 million investment in Equity Group Holdings (NSE: EQTY) could have performed over two years on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE). We look at the original investment, the value of the shares today, the capital gains from the change in share price, and the dividends earned during the holding period. I also account for the 15% withholding tax on dividends to calculate the net dividend income after tax. The goal is to distinguish between capital gains, dividend income, and total investment return. A share price increase tells only part of the story. Dividends can contribute meaningfully to an investor’s overall return, but taxes, transaction costs, and the actual purchase and selling prices also matter when calculating what an investor would take home. This is why evaluating NSE stocks requires more than looking at today’s share price. Investors should understand historical share prices, dividend declarations, dividend payment dates, dividend yield, capital appreciation, taxation, and the total return on their investment. Equity Bank is one of the major banking stocks listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange, making it an interesting case study for understanding long-term stock investing in Kenya. However, past performance does not guarantee future returns, and the outcome of this historical investment calculation should not be treated as a promise of future profits. If you are investing in Kenyan stocks, learning how to calculate NSE share returns, dividend income after withholding tax, and net capital gains can help you make better-informed investment decisions.
