Directors' Report
The Board of Directors of the BSJS Balanced Fund Limited (BBF), presents the Sixth Annual Report of
the Company together with the Audited Accounts for the year ended June 30, 2000.
1. 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) Composition of Assets
On June 30, 2000, the composition of assets of your Company, at their market values was as under:
June 30, 2000 June 30, 1999
Rs. Percent Rs. Percent

Equity securities 86.112 38 90.965 49
Term finance certificates 28.214 12 31.000 17
Investment on markup basis -- -- 15.000 8
Receivable on sale of shares 101.706 45 40.000 22
Receivable against income 3.828 1 6.528 3
Cash at banks in PLS accounts 8.582 4 0.865 1
------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------
228.442 100 184.358 100
========== ========== ========== ==========
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.
3. AUDITORS

4. SHAREHOLDERS
