(Units in Mil.) (Units in Mil.) ( % )
Production 59.87 54.42 10.01
Dispatches 60.02 54.28 10.57
MARKETING
As in previous years maintaining quality of the bags remained our prime consideration, this together
with constant follow up with our customers helped us in keeping our share of the market. In fact in
terms of quantity the dispatches for this year as shown above were higher than last year by 5.74
million bags.
To maintain our share of market and keeping in view the liquidity position of cement manufacturers
we had to extend substantial credit to our customers. Our receivables as of June 30, 2000 stood at
Rs. 149.028 million, which is equivalent to approximately 88 days of sales.

FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS / DEBT OBLIGATIONS
There are no long-term loans against the company and the commitments under the lease financing
are being met as per schedule.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
The performance of our Company is largely dependent on the cement industry and the price for
imported kraft paper. While there has been an improvement in the cement sector, the prices of
imported kraft paper have been fluctuating. The depreciation in the value of Pak Rupee also remains
a concern as it directly impacts our cost of production. We hope that the economic situation improves
in the coming months, which should in turn help us maintain our performance.
AUDITORS
The present auditors M/s. Sidat Hyder Qamar & Company, Chartered Accountants, retire and being
eligible offer themselves for reappointment.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
In the end we wish to thank all the financial institutions, which have been associated with us, for their
support, understanding and cooperation. We would also like to thank all our customers for their
continued association. Our special thanks are due to our team of dedicated managers and other
executives, supervisors and hard working employees, who continue to put in their best efforts to
ensure optimum performance.
Thank you,
For and on behalf of
