Report |

OPERATING RESULTS |
|
|
| (I)
Profit during the year |
|
| The
Company earned a net profit of Rs. 50.760 million (1999: Rs. 15.067 million),
that translates into an |
|
| earning
per share of Rs. 3.38 (1999: Rs.1.00 per share). Your directors recommend a
cash dividend of |
|
| 31%
i.e. Rs. 3.10 per share (1999: 10% i.e. Rs. 1.00 per share). Rs. 46.50
million have been |
|
| appropriated
as dividend (1999: Rs. 15 million), which works out to 91.60% pay-out (1999:
99.6%) for |
|
| the
year. A sum of Rs. 4.4 million has been carried forward to the next year. As
over ninety percent of |
|
| the
net profit of the Company has been appropriated for distribution as dividend
to shareholders, there is |
|
| no
liability for income tax under clause 102D part I of the Second Schedule of
the Income Tax |
|
| Ordinance,
1979. |
|
|
| (II)

|
|
| During
the year return available from money market was not very attractive. The
Company's funds were, |
|
| therefore,
moved from investment in money market instruments to equity securities. The
decline of |
|
| income
from money market was more than offset by handsome increase in income from
capital gains |
|
| which
the Company realized from sale of equity securities. |
|
|
| 2.
PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO KSE INDEX |
|
| The
KSE 100 Index appreciated by 44.19% during the year ended June 30, 2000. The
net asset value |
|
| (NAV)
of the shares of your Company improved from Rs. 10.83 on June 30, 1999 to Rs.
11.75 on June |
|
| 30,
2000. Together with dividend pay-out, this reflects a return of 37.12%. BBF
is a balanced fund and a |
|
| portion
of its investment is in fixed income securities which do not move with the
KSE Index. All along, |
|
| our
strategy has been to achieve our long-term investment perspective of reducing
volatility and focusing |
|
| on
regular flow of income. |
|
|
| Your
Company will continue with the strategy of diversifying investment in
short-term instruments and |
|
| debt
securities with regular return and in equity of companies with dividend
paying record and growth |
|
| prospects,
so as to ensure a constant flow of income without erosion in the value of
investment. BBF is |
|
| well-positioned
to enter the market when equities of companies with a good track record offer
attractive |
|
| valuations.
This strategy will hopefully allow BBF to provide security and profitability
to the shareholders |
|
| without
foregoing growth. |
