Berger Paints’ shareholders recorded a 59.15 percent increase in their investment after the share price of the company jumped by N11.15 kobo within April and June.

Analysis showed that the bullish sentiment earned Berger Paints’ shareholders a combined gain of N3,23 billion within three months, and raised the paint manufacturer’s market valuation to N8.69 billion on June 30.
Prime Business Africa gathered that the company’s market capitalisation increased from N5.46 billion on April 2 after an increase in demand raised the share price from N18.85 kobo to N30 per share.
