| DIRECTORS'
REPORT TO THE MEMBERS |
|
|
| The
Board of Directors presents to its members the 13th Annual Report together
with Audited Accounts and the |
|
| Auditors
Report thereon for the year ended June 30, 1999. |
|
|
| The
period 1998-99 was marked with a bold step taken by ALC Board to enter into a
merger, as the leasing as well |
|
| as
banking sector needs to consolidate. This step was also in line with the SECP
requirement that all leasing |
|
| companies
should raise their paid up capital to Rs.200 million by November, 1999.
Unfortunately, this being the first |
|
| merger,
the merging companies developed certain difference of opinion on various
aspects. The merger process |
|
| which
took almost a year did not materialize despite the fact that ALC had
completed all the required formalities by |
|
| March.
1999. Meanwhile due to the fact that ALC was being viewed as a merging
entity, fresh credit lines could not |
|
| be
contracted and the lease portfolio could not be built up. The year 1999-2000,
therefore, requires the company to |
|
| gear
itself to arrange fresh funding in the form of credit lines and look for
equity partners for fresh equity injection to |
|
| strengthen
the financial standing of the company. The company has started making efforts
in both the areas. ALC |
|
| plans
to accommodate the existing clients with good track record with ALC as well
as with other financial institutions. |
|
| ALC
would also target new clients. |
|
|
| Since
ALC is presently carrying the portfolio built up over the last ten years,
1998-99 was marked with clearing the |
|
| portfolio
through rejuvenating the efforts for recovery/settlements/rescheduling. We
are pleased to report that |
|
| marked
movement in stuck up financing has been made. |

|
| The
profitability/operational results remained under strain due to
non-availability of sufficient credit lines in the past |
|
| few
years. The overall deficit of the company reduced in 1998-99 compared to last
year as expenses were |
|
| substantially
brought down as well as lease portfolio was corrected. The earning per share,
remain negative, |
|
| improved
in the period 1998-1999. The benefit in the area of taxation was realized as
deferred tax, fully provided, |
|
| was
partly reversed this year. |
|
|
| FUTURE
OUTLOOK |
|
|
| The
year 1999-2000 could be termed as a year in which all efforts would be made
to turn around the company. The |
|
| Board
has decided to strengthen the financial position of the company by building
its lease portfolio through prudent |
|
| and
selective lending. 1999-2000 would also witness further efforts in the
reduction of the stuck up financing. Equity |
|
| injection
from sound financial groups/individuals would be pursued in the overall
interest of the company. |
|
|
