About Conglomerates on the NGX

The Conglomerates sector is small in number but unique in profile. UACN is the historical anchor — a holding company with interests in food, paints, logistics, animal feeds and quick-service restaurants. Transcorp is the high-profile name, with assets in power generation (Transcorp Power), hospitality and oil & gas (Transcorp's OPL 281 stake). The remaining names — A.G. Leventis, John Holt, SCOA Nigeria, Chellaram — are legacy trading and distribution houses with long histories on the exchange but smaller market caps.

Conglomerates are typically valued on a sum-of-the-parts basis, with each underlying business carrying its own market multiple. Transcorp's recent demerger of Transcorp Power and Transcorp Hotels into separately listed entities was a textbook example of how value can be unlocked. The sector is a stock-picker's sector — performance varies wildly across names depending on the underlying mix.
