Rs. 22.31 Million. With the transfer to reserve the break-up value of your Modaraba Certificate now
stands at Rs. 14.29 against a face value of Rs. 10 (1996: Rs. 13.43).
OPERATIONS
We are pleased to report that during the year under review, your Modaraba completed 11 years of business
operations. The total number of leases executed since inception to June 30, 1997 were 7,084 with
a total value of Rs. 3.481 billion.
As at 30 June 97, there were a total of 794 "live" leases with a prime cost of Rs. 1.26 billion (1996=1~355
leases prime cost Rs. 1.38 billion). 158 New leases executed during the year totalled Rs. 221 Million
(1996=244 leases prime cost Rs. 249.26 million).
Vigorous efforts continue to be made to recover overdue rentals from defaulting lessees. The new Banking
Reforms Act of 1997, passed in June 97 is a welcome step and provides financial institutions a
means of. obtaining quick decisions from the Banking Courts.
During the year, a decision was taken to merge BRR Second Modaraba (Managed by BRR Investments
Private Limited) and Equity International Modaraba (managed by Equity International Private Limited)
with your Modaraba.
In economic terms, 1996-97 has been described as the worst year in the country's history. There was
a business slowdown on account of higher input costs and mark-up rates. The year saw 3 different
governments, and whereas by the end of the year, the present government offered many incentives to
the business sector, investment was shy on account of credibility regarding consistent policies. In spite
of these adverse factors your Modaraba has been able to maintain its operations to the extent of being
able marginally to improve its dividend payout by 10 percent to Rs. 11.00.
Property
A plot of land was acquired through public auction next to the Security Vault at a cost of around
Rs. 9.3 Million. The building that is proposed to be constructed on this plot will serve both to extend
space for the Security Vault and custodial services, as well as to provide accommodation for our Head
Office at this location. Thereafter we would propose to sell the existing office owned by your Modaraba,
at a significant capital gain.
The internal layout and decor of the new Islamabad Office was undertaken during the year, and subsequent
to the year end, we shifted to the new office premises.
Security Vault
Business was steady during the year. With the inauguration of the Central Depository System by the
Stock Exchange, the Custodial services offered to selected clients will be reduced in the years to come.
Whereas this is an event that may occur in the distant future, we have already started to look for other
areas of business for the Vault.
Income Notes
During the year under review, a total of Rs. 108 Million (1996= Rs. 69 million) was disbursed from
the proceeds of the Income Notes for leasing activities.
Regulatory Authorities
During the year under review, the State Bank of Pakistan declared that Modarabas and Leasing Companies
were no longer "non banking financial institutions", and so ceased to act as regulator. The weekly, monthly,
quarterly, half yearly and annual returns are now submitted to the Registrar of Modarabas.
Central Excise Duty
We are grateful that the government withdrew central excise duty on leasing and musharika transactions,
in the Finance Bill 1997-98. This will help reduce the cost of leasing.
Future Prospects
As has been reported elsewhere in this report, your Modaraba is being merged with two other Modarabas
within the BRR Group. The merger will lead to saving in costs, and give the Modaraba a new direction.
The combined equity of the merged entity will be over Rs. 500 million, and the total assets will be in
excess of Rs. 2 billion. We pray the merger will be profitable for all our certificate holders, and lead
to our enlarging the scope and volume of our business in additional modes.
Auditors
The present auditors Messrs A.F. Ferguson & Co., Chartered Accountants are due for retirement and
have offered themselves for reappointment for the year ending June 30, 1998. Their appointment has
been confirmed by the Board subject to the approval of the Registrar, Modaraba Companies & Modarabas.

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
(b) Fixed Assets
(i) Assets leased out and amortisation
Leased assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is charged
to income applying the straight-line method whereby the cost of an asset is written
off over its lease period. In respect of additions and disposals during the year
amortisation is charged proportionately to the period of lease.
Profit or loss on disposal of leased assets is included in income currently.
(ii) Assets in own use and depreciation
Operating assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
charged to income applying the straight-line method whereby the cost of an asset
is written off over its estimated useful life. In respect of additions and disposals during
the year, depreciation is charged proportionately to the period of use.
Profit or loss on disposal of assets is included in income currently.
(c) Investments
Investments, other than property, are stated at lower of cost and market value on an aggregate
basis. Property is valued at cost. Profit or loss on sale of investments is taken to profit and
loss account currently.
(d) Revenue recognition
Income from leases is recognised as and when lease rentals become due on a systematic
basis over the lease period. However, income from those leases which have been assigned
to third parties, future rental is also recognised as income when actually received. but if
not so received, the future rentals are first treated as deferred income and later transferred
to profit and loss account in equal instalments over the period of the lease.
(e) Deferred Expenditure
Project evaluation and documentation fee paid for obtaining long term finance is written
