DIRECTORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS
The Directors of your Company are pleased to present their 6th Annual Report together with the
accounts for the year ended June 30, 1998 and auditors report thereon.
Financial Results
The Company earned a net profit of Rs. 93.415 million during the year under review as compared to
Rs. 36.880 million during the preceding year. After adding unappropriated profit of Rs. 58.771 million, the
total amount of Rs. 152.186 million has been carried to the balance sheet.
During the year under review net sales of the Company were Rs. 469.152 million as compared to
Rs. 290.737 million during the previous financial year. Sales have registered an increase of 61.97%
mainly due to expansion of Maple Leaf Cement Factory Limited, which came into operation in December
1997, enhancement in electricity Tariff by WAPDA in March 1998 and increase in production efficiency.
Earnings Per Share
The Company has earned a net profit of Rs. 93.415 million on a paid up capital of Rs. 520.000 million,
which translates into earnings per share of Rs. 1.80.
Share Capital
A sum of Rs. 120.000 million was capitalized by way of issue of 30% bonus shares out of capital reserve,
increasing the paid up capital to Rs. 520.000 million (1996:Rs. 400.000 million).
Pay-Out
In order to meet the enhanced requirement of electricity at Maple Leaf Cement Factory Limited usance
Letter of Credit amounting to Japanese Yen 390.218 million payable on 720 days basis was established
on December 3, 1996 for import of one additional engine of the same make and capacity. The said Letter
of Credit will mature in the current financial year.
In addition 16,000 hours major maintenance is to be carried out on five engines during the current year,
which adversely affect profitability and put a squeeze on cash flow. Keeping in view the heavy
maintenance expenses and payment of usance Letter of Credit during the current year your Directors
have not recommended any dividend for the year.
Operations
Both plants operated smoothly during the year. The Plant at Rawalpindi operated at near optimum
capacity and it is expected that the same level will be maintained in the future.                                        ~
On account of prevailing economic conditions in the country and general recession in construction
activities, the capacity of the Plant at Iskanderabad remained under-utilized due to below average off-
take by expansion project of Maple Leaf Cement Factory Limited. Consequently, electricity demand
remained below expectations and therefore your Company could not achieve the desired level of
electricity supply which adversely affected the profitability of the Company.
Expansion
As mentioned in the last year's report, the new engine at Iskanderabad was commissioned successfully
during December 1997 and is now fully operational.
Future Prospects
Major maintenance of five engines is due in the current year which will reduce the profitability of the
Company. However, it is expected that with the increase in the demand of cement, power supply will
also increase leading to better results. Usance Letter of Credit for the new engine is going to mature in
June and July 1999. The current upward trend noted in the value of Japanese Yen is expected to lead to
heavy exchange difference which has to be paid by your Company at the maturity of said Letter of
Credit.
Vision 2000 Program
Your Company embarked on an ambitious Vision 2000 program in 1997 and the Directors are pleased to
report that the Company achieved certification under ISO 9002 Quality Assurance Systems on June 18,
1998 from Lloyds Register Quality Assurance Limited, U.K. The Vision 2000 program is geared towards
up-gradation in the culture, systems and procedures in financial management, human resource
development and improved technical performance. The program is expected to ensure that the
performance of your Company remains robust and profitable as it enters the new millennium.
Millennium Bug Year 2000
The Company is pleased to inform that its current software has been designed and developed to work
smoothly for and after year 2000. The manufacturers have also confirmed that all plant and equipment is
compliant for the year 2000.
Auditors
The retiring auditors M/s. Amin, Mudassar & Co. Chartered Accountants, being eligible, have offered
themselves for reappointment.
Pattern of Shareholding
Statement showing pattern of share holding is annexed separately to the report.
Appreciation
Your Directors place on record their appreciation for the dedicated services rendered by the staff and
management of the Company and hope the same spirit of devotion will continue in the future.
For and on behalf of the Board
