|
| DIRECTORS'
REPORT |
|
|
| The
Board of Directors of your Company has pleasure in presenting the Annual
Report, together with |
|
| the
audited accounts for the year ended June 30, 2000. |
|
|
| Operating
Results |
|
| During
the year under review, the net sales amounting to Rs. 776 million (1999 Rs.
703 million) and |
|
| a
pre-tax profit of Rs. 84 million after charging depreciation of Rs. 42
million and financial charges |
|
| 12
million (1999 Rs. 5 million after charging depreciation Rs. 34 million and
financial charges Rs. |
|
| 19 million). |
|
|
| During
the year under review the cement industry continued to experience stiff
competition in the |
|
| market
and has maintained a downward pressure on prices of cement. The existing over
capacity in |
|
| the
industry has resulted in an industry wide lower capacity utilization.
However, continued cost cutting |
|
| methods
and reduction in overheads costs, your company has maintained substantial
improvement |
|
| over
the last year. |
|
|
| While
the concern of oversupply and continuous increase in furnace oil prices still
remain, we hope |
|
| the
improvement trend that has been witnessed since the last twelve months will
continue, for the good |
|
| of
the industry as a whole. |
|
|
| Future
Prospects |
|
| With
the improved financial discipline and economic revival strategies being
introduced by the |
|
| government,
the country's economy is expected to start improving. This improvement in
economy |
|
| will
most likely further improve the growth rate of cement consumption. |
|
|
| The
increasing rate of local consumption and the expected opening up of exports
will enhance the |
|
| capacity
utilization ratio, and the gap in supply and demand caused by the temporary
over supply |
|
| position
is expected to further reduce in the coming years. |
|
|
| Expansion
Project |
|
| Much
progress has been achieved towards completion of the expansion project.
However, in the year |
|
| under
review efforts were focused on optimizing capacity of the present operational
line and will be |
|
| completed
and stabilized in due course of time. |
|
|
| Case
with NDFC |
|
|
|
| As
Board of Directors informed you in their last report that Company had filed
judicial applications |
|
| in
the High Court of Sindh against NDFC. The High Court of Sindh on august 28,
2000 has passed |
|
| an
order to appoint a firm of Chartered Accountants to look into the figures
mentioned in the plaint |
|
| as
principal amount and verify from the plaintiff i.e. NDFC as to how this
amount has been computed. |
|
|
|
|
| Management
hopes that on the basis of merit these applications will be decided in favour
of Company |
|
| and
ultimately all shareholders will get benefit of the same. |
|
|
| Auditors |
|
|
| M/s.
Sidat Hyder Qamar & Co., Chartered Accountants, the present auditors
retire and being eligible |
|
| offer
themselves for reappointment for next year. |
|
|
| Pattern
of Shareholding |
|
|
|
| The
Shareholding pattern of the Company as on June 30, 2000 is included in the
annual report. |
|
|
| Management
Relationship |
|
| The
management relations remained cordial throughout the year and Board wishes to
place on record |
|
| its
appreciation for the dedicated efforts and services rendered by the officers
and workers with the |
|
| expectation
that the same zeal would be witnessed in the years to come. |
|
|
| Acknowledgements |
|
| I
acknowledge with deep appreciation and wish to place on record our thanks to
customers who |
|
| patronize
our products and appreciate the help and support from the vendors and
contractors because |
|
| of

|
| AUDITORS'
REPORT TO THE MEMBERS |
|
|
| We
have audited the annexed balance sheet of DADABHOY CEMENT
INDUSTRIES LIMITED as at |
|
| 30
June 2000 and the related profit and loss account, cash flow statement and
statement of changes |
|
| in
equity together with the notes forming part thereof, for the year then ended
and we state that we |
|
| have
obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of our
knowledge and belief, |
|
| were
necessary for the purposes of our audit. |
|
|
| It
is the responsibility of the Company's management to establish and maintain a
system of internal |
|
| control,
and prepare and present the above said statements in conformity with the
approved accounting |
|
| standards
and the requirements of the Companies Ordinance, 1984. Our responsibility is
to express |
|
| an
opinion on these statements based on our audit. |
|
|
| We
conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards as applicable
in Pakistan. These |
|
| standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether |
|
| the
above said statements are free of any material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a |
|
| test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the above said
statements. An audit also |
|
| includes
assessing the accounting policies and significant estimates made by
management, as well as, |
|
| evaluating
the overall presentation of the above said statements. We believe that our
audit provides a |
|
| reasonable
basis for our opinion and, after due verification, we report that: |
|
|
| a)
in our opinion, proper books of account have been kept by the Company as
required by |
|
| the
Companies Ordinance, 1984; |
|
|
|
|
|
| b)
in our opinion |
|
|
|
| i)
the balance sheet and profit and loss account together with the notes thereon
have been |
|
| drawn
up in conformity with the Companies Ordinance, 1984, and are in agreement |
|
| with
the books of account and are further in accordance with accounting policies |
|
| consistently
applied except for the change as stated in note 2.4 to the accounts with |
|
| which
we concur; |
|
|
|
|
| ii)
the expenditure incurred during the year was for the purpose of the Company's
business; and |
|
|
| iii)
the business conducted, investments made and the expenditure incurred during
the year |
|
| were
in accordance with the objects of the Company except for the fact that the |
|
| Company
has made advances as referred to in note 19.1 and 19.2 to the accounts |
|
| contrary
to provisions of the Companies Ordinance, 1984. However, such advances |
|
| have
been realized/adjusted subsequent to balance sheet date: |
|
|
| c)
in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given |
|
| to
us, the balance sheet, profit and loss account, cash flow statement and
statement of |
|
| changes
in equity together with the notes forming part thereof conform with approved |
|
| accounting
standards as applicable in Pakistan, and give the information required by the |
|
| Companies
Ordinance, 1984, in the manner so required and respectively give a true and |
|
| fair
view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 30 June 2000 and of the
profit, its |
|
| cash
flows and changes in equity for the year then ended; and |
|
|
|
| d)
in our opinion, no Zakat was deductible at source under the Zakat and Ushr
Ordinance, 1980. |
|
|
|
|
| We
draw attention to the following matters: |
|
|
| i)
as disclosed in notes 6.2 and 6.3 to the accounts, the Company has filed
various Judicial |
|
| Applications
in the High Court of Sindh against the lender of interest and mark-up |
|
| based
long term loans, aggregating to Rs. 598.913 (1999: Rs. 598.913) million, for |
|
| the
reasons given in the above referred notes. These applications are currently
pending |
|
| with
the High Court of Sindh and, accordingly, a final decision in this regard has
not |
|
| been
rendered todate by the above referred Court. |
|
|
|
|
|
| ii)
interest and mark-up on long term loans, aggregating to Rs. 67.480 (1999:
67.480) |
|
| million,
as stated in notes 6.2 and 6.3 to the accounts have been recorded in the |
|
| accounts
as reduction of outstanding balances of long term loans for the reasons state |
|
| in
the above referred notes. |
|
|
|
|
| iii)
the ultimate outcome of contingencies disclosed in note 11 to the accounts,
aggregating |
|
| to
Rs. 536.515 (1999: Rs. 427.130) million, cannot presently be determined and, |
|
| hence,
no provision that may result therefrom has been made in the accounts for the |
|
| current year. |
|
|
| iv)
as stated in note 2.6 to the accounts the Company is charging depreciation on
cost of |
|
| plant,
machinery and quarry equipment on the basis of production unit method,
whereby |
|
| the
rate of depreciation is computed with reference to the proportion which the
actual |
|
| production
bears to production units estimated to be produced during the useful economic |
|
| life
of such assets. The Company over the recent years is experiencing a slump in |
|
| demand
and hence decline in production thereby giving rise to unutilised capacity.
In |
|
| view
of the above, there is a need to review the depreciation method currently
being |
|
| applied
to the above assets and if, there has been a significant change in the
expected |
|
| pattern
of economic benefits from these assets, such method be adopted as would
reflect |
|
| the
changed pattern as required by IAS-16 "Property, Plant and
Equipment". |
