The value of BEE shares

A Fin24 user bought BEE shares a few years ago and wants to know what they would be worth today. He writes:

I purchased 300 Naspers (BEE) shares a few years back. What would be the "real" value of are these shares today?

I have read about Naspers shares reaching the R1 000 mark.

Meloy Horn, head of investor relations at Naspers [JSE:NPN], responds:


You did not stipulate which of the BEE shares you had bought.

Welkom Yizani is the biggest black economic empowerment share offer in the print media industry in South Africa.

When the share offer was launched in September 2006, it was three times subscribed with over 106 000 applications received for 14.6 million Welkom Yizani ordinary shares.

These shares are not trading at the moment and for more information see http://www.welkomyizani.co.za/

MultiChoice believes in Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment.

With this in mind, we created Phuthuma Nathi Investments, a wholly owned black South African company that now holds 20% of MultiChoice South Africa.

When launched, Phuthuma Nathi was the largest empowerment transaction in the listed media sector.
