HomeBoyz Entertainment made a triumphant entry onto the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) on Monday, June 19th, 2023, with its shares trading at Kshs. 4.66. The company’s shares experienced high trading volume, making it the most actively traded counter with a turnover of Kshs. 15.5 million on its first day.

This significant milestone comes after a successful journey that began in April 2019 when HomeBoyz Entertainment was admitted into the Ibuka program, showcasing its commitment to growth and innovation. Demonstrating exceptional growth and resilience in the entertainment industry, the company was listed by introduction on the Growth and Enterprise Market Segment (GEMS) in December 2020, with a share price of Kshs. 4.66 and a valuation of Kshs. 294.5 million.
