========= |
|
|
| The
year under review witnessed impor- |
|
| tant
political and economic changes and |
|
| these
have invariably had an impact on |
|
| the
course of economy. The business cli- |
|
| mate
during the year remained to be dif- |
|
| ficult
and uncertain due to political changes. |
|
| The
successive governments have intro- |
|
| duced
successive economic revival pack- |
|
| ages
to boost the exports and production |
|
| of
manufacturing sector. It is expected |
|
| that
supply side reforms announced by |
|
| the
new government will help in the re- |
|
| vival
of the production sector of the |
|
| economy. |
|
|
| It
is an established fact that our textile |
|
| sector
is facing twin problems of liquidity |
|
| and
viability. The traditional edge in the |
|
| raw
cotton prices is narrowing down and |
|
| the
industry has still not developed |
|
| competitives
on international prices of |
|
| raw
materials further energy cost and the |
|
| credit
cost has increased considerably. |
|
| Inspite
of all these odds, by the grace of |
|
| Almighty
Allah your company has again |
|
| performed
very well and earned a hand- |
|
| some
after tax profit of Rs. 62.840 Million |
|
| against
Rs. 29.299 Million in the corre- |
|
| sponding
year. Our members would recall |
|
| that
in our last annual report we have |
|
| reported
that we have started production |
|
| of
blended yarn and our total spinning |
|
| capacity
is evenly utilized for production |
|
| of
both Cotton yarn and blended yarn. In |
|
| addition
to that we have also entered in |
|
| fancy
yarn market and got positive re- |
|
| sponse. |
|
|
| The
effect of the above change in produc- |
|
| tion
plan is clearly reflected in our local |
|
| sales
for the year under review, which is |
|
| doubled
as compare to last year. Conse- |
|
| quently
the export of cotton yarn is re- |
|
| duced
in terms of quantity by 25%. How- |
|
| ever,
export of knitted fabric has shown |
|
| a
remarkable improvement during the year |
|
| and
due to this factor our export sales has |
|
| not
fallen as compared to the increase in |
|
| local
sales. |
|
|
| DIVIDEND |
|
| Inspite
of the tight liquidity position and |
|
| difficult
business conditions the directors |
|
| of
the Company has continued the |
|
| payout
to the members of its due share |
|
| and
have recommended 20% dividend. |
|
| This
comprises Cash dividend @ 10% |
|
| and
a Bonus issue in proportion to ten |
|
| shares
for every one hundred shares reg- |
|
| istered
i.e. @ 10%. |
|
|
| FUTURE
PROSPECTS |
|
| The cotton crop for the
year 1997-98 is |
|
| again failed due to
heavy rain in October/ |
|
| November 1997. The
crises of cotton con- |
|
| tinued
unabated, as the crop is in short |
|
| of
target, inspire of this the government |
|
| has allowed free import and
export of |
|
| cotton. We are trying
our best to fetch best |
|
| possible prices of our
products in local as |
|
| well
as in international markets. The impact |
|
| of
recent events in Southeast Asia has |
|
| adverse effects on
exports of our Country |
|
| and on your Company as
well. |
|
|
| We anticipate that
inspite of increase in |
|
| cost of production and
competitive sales |
|
| prices your Company will
be able to per- |
|
| form reasonably well
during the current |
|
| year and will make all
possible efforts to |
|
| continue
its tradition in exporting more |
|
| and more. |
