========== ==========
During the period, your company's turnover was
Rs. 315,751 millions as compared to last years
turnover of Rs. 319,209 millions. This slightly
decrease in turnover was mainly due to the tough
market competition, overall economic and financial
condition of the country. However due to the tough
competition in the market, it was necessary to
make heavy expenses on advertisement & sales
promotion, resulting into your company's overall
lower profitability before tax which was reduced by
16% from Rs. 16,786 millions to Rs. 14.108 millions.
I am happy to report that your Company's brand of
"SPARKLE" tooth pastes, "SHIELD" tooth brushes,
and "SHIELD" feeders, nipples and soothers
maintained their leadership position in their
respective product categories.
During the year, we have launched Household
products under the brand name of "EXCEL" in the
market. These products are quite new in Pakistan
market, so the result was not upto our expectation.
However, we are planning to put new strategy to
achieve our goal.
FUTURE PLAN:
During 1998-1999, we have planned to increase
the range of SHIELD tooth brushes so as to attract
an even greater segment of the market. INSHA
ALLAH the product expansion strategy will further
strengthen your company's market share. Plans
are also being finalised to increase the range of the
products in the BABYCARE segment of your
company's activities.
Your company's products are now well established
in the market and the Board of Directors believes
that the future prospects are bright.
The Board is also looking forward to the better
results in near future and sincerely thank all
company's personnel and business associates
whose cooperation and efforts have materially
contributed to the success of your company.
AUDITORS:
The auditors M/s. Gangat & Company, Chartered
Accountants retire and offer themselves for
reappointment.
