Director's Report

Review
The year 2000 continued to observe turbulence in the stock exchanges in Pakistan. The year was marked with
disturbance on the geographic boundaries and instability in the political arena. The dispute between the
Government of Pakistan and Hubco remained unresolved and kept the foreign investors out of the market.
The takeover by military government, however, led to a brief period of stability in the stock prices and a surge
in stock prices was also observed. FCMF continued to restructure its portfolio by replacing the non-
performing stocks with low risk investments expected to reap stable returns. Despite the prevalent economic
recession and erratic performance by the stock exchanges, FCMF continued to improve its performance
during the year under review.
The prudence of the Investment Advisers in portfolio related decisions has led to Rs. 15.1 million capital gains
for year 2000 against a capital loss of Rs. 37.9 million for the year 1999. The dividend income of the fund grew
by 103.9 % to Rs. 4.8 million against Rs. 2.3 million in year 1999. The profit before tax registered also an
increase of 161.7 % to Rs. 16.2 million in year 2000 from Rs. 6.2 million in 1999 resulting in earnings per
share of Rs. 1.01 for year 2000 from Rs. 0.41 for the year 1999.

Future Outlook

Directors of FCMF are confident that with the continuous restructuring of FCMF's portfolio with the
assistance of its Investment Advisers, the fund will continue to improve its performance next year. While
restructuring the portfolio FCMF is focusing on stocks that have out performed the market in recent years
and continue to offer attractive capital and dividend yields.
