PROFIT DISTRIBUTION
The Directors also take pleasure in announcing Cash Dividend at the rate of 5.5% (five
and half %) i.e. Rs. 0.55 per certificate of Rs. 10/= per value subject to deduction of
Zakat and Tax at source where applicable. This profit is being declared after transferring
20% of net profit amount equivalent to Rs. 948,546/= to statutory reserves which is
mandatory requirement in terms of State Bank of Pakistan's Prudential Regulations.
The payment of dividend under present Capital Market conditions is extremely difficult,
but this payment clearly indicates that your Modaraba even for its fourth year ending
(June 30, 1996) has worked hard to pay the dividend, hence your Modaraba from its first
year of operation to date, has been regularly paying bonuses and dividend every
year/period endings.
OPERATING PERFORMANCE
Operation of your Modaraba for the period under review was satisfactory, considering
the prevailing economic conditions, Briefly the Gross Operating Income rose to more
than Rs. 30.817 million during the period under review as opposed to Rs. 30.678 million
previous year, the operating expenses witnessed rise, as these stood around Rs. 25.600
million (for eighteen months) compared to over Rs. 20.833 during previous year (twelve
months), though these expenses appear to be on high side, but expenses for period
under review are for 18 months period, thus if month to month comparison is made, it
would be quite clear that these expenses have in effect been reduced to a great
extent showing management's full concentration on reducing expenditures, basically if
higher revenue increases are not achievable for any reason like in present case of
macro-economic conditions, than acknowledging this situation, the management has
rightly focused its attention on controlling costs. Operating results have yielded profit
(before charging of Management Company's Fee) for the period of Rs. 5.217 million
compared to Rs. 5.257 during year ended December 31st 1994, as a result, the aforesaid
dividend payment became possible.
Your Modaraba's assets stood at Rs. 100.516 million on 30th June 1996 as compared to
previous year ending of Rs. 99.716 million, hence a marginal growth was achieved
during the period under review.
CORPORATE REVIEW
Investment in the share/stock market was low, the main ingredients responsible for
consistent fall in share prices were, frequent closure of business, uncertain law and order
situation etc. However and notwithstanding the above, it is anticipated that low trend in
the stock market as well as capital market shall shortly turn positive.
Leasing business, for this business your Modaraba has paid heavy attention to recovery of
its outstanding leases, as full recovery, during the period under review was a major
concern, however, the lease volume has been kept at very low level, as the quantum of
leases stood at over Rs. 5.165 million during period under review to previous year's volume
of about Rs. 18.974 million, this is so, because, of late, leasing business is witnessing sluggish
period, coupled with low return factor owing to leasing competition, as well as relatively
lower sectorial growth, etc. these happen to be some of the reasons attributable for the
above, but hopefully the leasing activities shall get into upswing as soon as the economy
speed-up its growth level, like stock exchanges, it is hoped that soon our economic
conditions shall improve, and this business shall also show high growth.
Morabaha financing activities as carried-out during period under review were of Rs.
10.00 million against Rs. 33.00 million previous year, once again the market conditions
are not very conducive, but your Modaraba is continuously making efforts to capture
promising businesses for this type of financing.
SHORT TERM INVESTMENT
Volume of this business stood above 52.980 million during period under review as
opposed to previous year's volume of above Rs. 19.275 million. Your Modaraba has tried
its best to increase the level of this activity resultantly the returns generated and
recoveries made, were satisfactory, continued efforts shall be made to improve this
business in future. In short your Modaraba is endeavoring to evolve upon a strategy to
ensure its continuous purposeful operation.
TAXATION
A provision for tax at Rs. 0.141 million has been made at the rate of 12.5% of the profit for
period from July 1st 1995 to June 30, 1996 as during this period the Modaraba's tax
exemption period of three assessment years (from the date of its commencement to
June 30,1995) stands expired.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
During the early years of operations, your Modaraba concentrated on creating a sound
base for development of your Modaraba's funds in secured and income generating
investments. Having created base, your management is now actively seeking access to
external resources to increase nearing.
AUDITORS
The present Auditors M/s Hyder Bhimji Chartered Accountants, being due for retirement
have offered themselves for re- appointment for the year ending June 30, 1997. Their
appointment has been confirmed by the Board subject to the approval of the
competent authority.
