|
| 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. |

COMMITMENTS / DEBT OBLIGATIONS |
|
| There
are no long-term loans against the company and the commitments under the
lease financing |
|

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. |
