DIRECTORS REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
We welcome you all at this Company's 39th Annual General Meeting and have immense pleasure in presenting
Company's Annual Report for the year ended June 30, 2001 alongwith audited accounts and Auditors' Report
thereon.
During the year under review the Company suffered loss of Rs 89.264 million before tax against loss of Rs 46.453
million in the year 1999-2000. The increase in loss was due to stoppage of gas supply from Sui Southern Gas
Company Ltd., increase in inputs and utilities rates and lower sales in view of glut in the market.
The production and sales in the year under review is as follows:
PRODUCTION
It is to inform the members that Company produced 260269 tons Clinker which is 72782 tonnes (38-82%) more
than same period last year. The cement production was 284089 tonnes which is 64394 tonnes (18.48%) lower as
compared to same period last year, due to lower demand as construction industry remained in poor shape.
The comparative data of production of Clinker and Cement during the year under review being as under:-
Year Year Increase/(Decrease)
2000-2001 1999-2000 Over the last year
In Tons In %
Clinker 260269 187487 72782 38.82 %
Cement
O.P.C. 257261 311658 (54397) (17.45) %
Slag Cement 21945 22157 (212) (0.96)%
S.R.C. 4883 14668 (9785) (66.71) %
------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------
TOTAL 284089 348483 (64394) (18.48) %
========== ========== ========== ==========
Apart from adjustment in line with the market demand for cement, the reduction in the production of cement during
the year under examination, may also be attributed to the two Kilns having continued to remain stopped due to
obsolete design consuming abnormal quantity of fuel/parts and less demand of Cement during the year. The
production of Cement was 50% of our rated capacity, however we have achieved 95% production of the running
capacity.
MAREKETING
The quantum of sales had its vulnerability by way of reduction therein as compared to the last year. The
company's sales in metric tons have fallen in aggregate by 52731 metric tons as can be substantiated /
corroborated by the following table:-
Year Year Increase/(Decrease)
2000-2001 1999-2000 Over the last year
In Tons In %
CEMENT
O.P.C 262790 308439 (45649) (14.80) %
Slag Cement 23267 21894 373 6.27 %
S.R.C. 5783 14238 (8455) (59.38) %
------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------
TOTAL 291840 344571 (52731) (15.30) %
========== ========== ========== ==========
The dismal scenario emerging from the sales reduction can rightly be attributed to the following uncontrollable /
negative factors, beyond one's physical endeavor.
1. Cement is the basic raw material in the civil engineering projects, the level of activity of which remained at
its low ebb during the year.
2. Drastic stagnancy/shrinkage in the STATE ECONOMY during the year under review, not enabling any
acceleration of pace/tempo of industrial activity through out the country.
The Company's contribution to the exchequer in the form of Excise Duty and Sales Tax amounted to Rs.452.518
million which works out to 36.81% of the gross Sales of the year under review. This is undoubtedly high
percentages of gross sales, having gone into the State Treasury during the year under examination.
In view of your company having incurred an operating loss during the year under examination, it thereof
expresses its inability to recommend any dividend to its shareholders for the year 2000-2001
EARNING PER SHARE
Rs. - 10.14 (Minus Rupees Ten and paisa fourteen).
GOING CONCERN
The auditors observations regarding Going Concern and Payment of Debts, it is worth mentioning that financial
restructuring proposal is under consideration at SCCP, MOI&P and Privatization Commission to make it viable
unit for the purpose of privatization in near future.
PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL DEBTS & CREDITORS
The receivables and creditors are under detailed scrutiny as substantial amount is under litigation and remaining
is either to be set off with debtors and creditors or adjustable, therefore directors consider provision for doubtful
debts as sufficient.
PAYMENT OF DEBTS
The liquidity position has not allowed to make payments against debts, due to payment of VRS to employees for
reduction of man power cost. However the proposal of financial restructuring, is under consideration of
Privatization Commission.
DIRECTORS
During the intervening period, since the holding of the last Annual General Meeting the following changes have
taken place in the Board of Directors of the Company:-
1) Mr. Zahid Hussain has taken over the charge as Chairman in place of Mr. Muhammad Nawaz Tiwana.
2) Mr. Aijaz Ahmed, Actg. Managing Director has taken over the charge on 13-7-2001 (to be retired on
4-12-2001).
3) Mr. S. Haroon Rashid has been nominated as Director by I.C.P. in place of Mr. Istaqbal Mahdi.
4) Mr. Tariq Karmani has been nominated as Director by N.I.T. in place of Mr. Akhtar Mehmood.
5) Mr. Ikram-ul-Haq Siddiqi has been elected as Director in place of Mr. Muhammad Shamim Siddiqi.
We heartily welcome these incoming directors and place on record our deepest appreciation to the outgoing
Directors, for their most conspicuous contribution in the Management of JCL while they were in office.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
Having been braced with the present status of an adverse economic dilemma in general, the probability for an
easing of which is equally shrouded with uncertainties, the Company's Directors are optimistic for improvement,
if not immediately then in the very near future, which mostly depends upon country's economic revival and
continued supply of gas to cement industries.
AUDITORS
The present auditors M/s. Ibrahim, Shaikh & Co., Chartered Accountants, retire and being eligible, offer
themselves for re-appointment for the year 2001-2002.

the year under review.

outstanding for a considerable period of time. A provision of Rs. 2,320,596 has already been made against

the remaining amounts of Rs. 3,616,549 should be made against these debts; like-wise Trade Creditors,
accrued expenses and other liabilities amounting to Rs. 741,701 outstanding for considerable period of
