DIRECTORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS  
   
The Board of Directors of Asian Leasing Corporation Limited, feels pleasure in presenting the 16th    
Annual Report together with Audited Accounts of the company and Auditor's Report thereon for the    
year ended June 30, 2002.  
   
The past few years of economic turmoil that developed in South-East Asia affected manv countries in    
the region including Pakistan, especially the terrorist attack in New York on II* September 2001    
drastically changed the geo-political situation of the world economies  
   
Another factor, which has brought negative economic pressure on the economies of the region was the    
Indian troops concentration along with Pakistani borders.  
   
Under the difficult circumstances narrated above, it is a pleasure to inform vou that the company had    
been able to post an after tax profit ofRs. 118.440/- as compared to last year's loss of Rs.(33.645,848)  
   
Financial Results

Despite the economic conditions narrated above. ALC was still able to maintain its operations and as a    
result Rs.23 million were recovered during the year 2001-2002. However, due to cancellation of the    
Company's license to operate as a leasing company, new business could not be generated by the    
company. It affected the Balance Sheet footing which reduced from Rs.134,134,742/- to    
Rs.l 16.667.735/- The company was able to pay off its loan installments of Long Term Loan and other    
financial obligations in time.

FUTUREOLI LOOK
