|
| CHAIRMAN'S
REVIEW |
|
|
| It
is my privilege to place before you the Company's 37th Annual Report for the
year ended 30th June |
|
| 2000. |
|
|
| General: |
|
|
| Pakistan
economy in a recession for over three years, remained weak and disturbed
during 1999- |
|
| 2000
due to severe internal and external press0res. Government continued to
restrict its spending |
|
| demanded
by budgetary constraints. Textiles and tractors offered important bright
spots but demand |
|
| continued
weak for most of the industries. |
|
|
| Motorcycle
Market |
|
|
|
| Due
to economic recession, capital goods industries were hardest hit. This
situation was more |
|
| pronounced
in the motorcycle industry. Demand for motorcycles was at the same low level
as the last |
|
| two
years. Sales of motorcycles during the year was about 15% lower than in
1995-96. Motorcycles |
|
| are
mostly used by lower middle class income group, whose income levels have not
grown with |
|
| inflationary
movements. Therefore motorcycle prices were getting out of reach of many
potential |
|
| users.
Export Sales were low due to problems in some of our foreign markets; our
cost and prices |
|
| were
also important reasons for lack of success in this area. |
|
|
| Gross Profit |
|
|
| As
a result of downward movement of Pak Rupee against the Japanese yen, as well
as the general |
|
| inflationary
pressures, costs rose substantially which could not be passed on to the
consumer as that |
|
| would
have reduced sales drastically. Gross Profit margin was sharply lower from
30.85% in 1998- |
|
| 99
to 23.95% in 1999-2000. |
|
|
| Selling
and Administration Expenses |
|
|
| These
expenses were 38% lower, going down from Rs. 90.6 million to Rs.56.0 million
as we wrote |
|
| back
Rs. 12.445 million in 1999-2000, against having made a provision of doubtful
debts of Rs. 24.572 |
|
| million
in 1989-99. This has been done under the same formula which was used to make
the provision. |
|
|
| Financial
Charges |
|
|
|
| We
were able to obtain Foreign Currency loan from SMC, Japan at attractive
rates. Also interest rates |
|
| and
forward exchange cover fee remained low. Therefore Financial Charges were
reduced from |
|
| Rs.
32.076 million in 1998-99 to Rs. 17.350 million in 1999-2000. |
|
|
| Profit
& Loss Situation |
|
|
|
| Due
to lower selling expenses and financial charges, the Company incurred a
substantially reduced |
|
| loss
of Rs. 4.744 million in 1999-2000 as against a loss of Rs. 44.848 million in
1998-99, despite a |
|
| sharp
reduction in gross profit rate. |
|
|
| Future
Prospects |
|
|
|
| As
mentioned in my last year's review, the company is now moving towards break
even point and |
|
| profitability.
Sales at our Company owned and operated Showrooms are growing satisfactorily. |
|
| Demand
from rickshaw makers for Suzuki Motorcycles is also gradually increasing as
customers are |
|
| confident
about our motorcycle quality and re-sale price. Thus during the year
2000-2001, although |
|
| sales
to Government and exports are likely to remain negligible, our motorcycle
sales are likely to |
|
| continue
to improve, July-October 2000 motorcycles sales units and sales revenue are
substantially |
|
| higher
than July-October 1999. Our Wire Harness project is progressing
satisfactorily. This is adding |
|
| significantly
to our turnover. Total July-October 2000 revenue is about 70% higher than
July-October |
|
| 1999.
Investment in a high quality wire harness project and other substantial
investments in important |
|
| projects
are in hand to add to SMPL sales. Such moves reflect confidence and
commitment of Suzuki |
|
| Motor
Corporation, Japan and your Company in the future of our country and our
Company. We are |
|
| confident
that the trend in Sales growth will continue. |
