DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR 1997-98
The Board of Directors of Al-Zamin Modaraba Management (Pvt) Limited takes
pleasure in presenting the Sixth Annual Report together with audited accounts for
the year ended 30th June, 1998.
FINANCIAL RESULTS:
The Modaraba achieved a record operating profit of Rs. 26.236 million for the
year, before appropriations, which was 16.8 per cent higher than the 1997
operating profit of Rs. 22.456 million. The composition of results with comparison
of 1997 is as follows:
1998 1997 Increase
HIGHLIGHTS 30th June 30th June %
Net Lease Receivables 212,172,125 206,991,292 2.50
Total Earnings generated 53,464,323 46,402,295 15.22
Operating Expenses 13,275,479 11,042,509 20.22
Financial Charges 13,953,046 12,903,646 8.13
Operating Profit 26,235,798 22,456,140 16.83
CREDIT RATING:
The Board is happy to report that, during the year, your Modaraba was awarded a
respectable medium to long-term entity rating of Triple-B Minus by DCR-VIS Credit
Rating Company Ltd which reflects "adequate credit quality with reasonable and
sufficient protection factors". Short-term entity rating of D-3 was awarded which
indicates "satisfactory' liquidity and other protection factors" qualifying the Modaraba
for the investment grade. The Rating Agency expected timely payments despite the
risk factors which were considered variable if changes occurred in the economy.
The credit rating report acknowledges the strength of the Modaraba management
and its satisfactory performance despite the economic downturn in the country and
deteriorating performance of the Modaraba sector. AI-Zamin, in the opinion of the
rating agency, can be distinguished amongst Modarabas due to the management's
rich local and international banking exposure and its ability to tap long-term and
short-term finance. The rating report also acknowledges that, despite high cost of
borrowed funds, the Modaraba had generated reasonable returns in a highly
competitive environment and that the management had been successful in writing
leases to credit worthy clients.
APPROPRIATIONS:
Since your Modaraba operated under the revised tax regime of 25 per cent for
the year, a provision of Rs. 2.272 million has been made for the current and
previous year tax liabilities. In addition, a sum of Rs. 0.500 million has also been
allocated for the deferred tax as a matter of accounting prudence. Henceforth,
the leasing Modarabas which distribute 90 per cent of their profit would be
exempted from tax, effective assessment year 1999-2000. This is an important
development which would promote the Modaraba sector and ensure suitable
distributions to the certificate-holders in the future.
The stock market has been showing declining trends over the last two years.
Your Modaraba was able to reduce its short-term and long-term investments in
the stock market from Rs. 18.66 million to Rs. 5.83 million in the previous year
thereby reducing its exposure to the market fluctuations substantially. While
appropriate provisions have always been made for the short-term investments,
your Board has decided to make a full provision of Rs. 3.361 million for the
diminution experienced in the long-term investments of Rs. 4.090 million. This
has been decided as a matter of abundant caution in order to protect your future
results from any negative impacts. It is hoped that a substantial portion of this
provision would be written back to the profits of the Modaraba when
disinvestments take place after the market improvement.
A provision of Rs. 2.663 million has been made for the potential lease losses as
against a provision of Rs. 1.636 million of the previous year. You may recall that
a general reserve of Rs. 5.00 million had been created in the previous year to
strengthen the operating base of the Modaraba. In view of current uncertainties
prevailing in the economy, your Board has decided to add another sum of Rs.
1.00 million so as to make a Contingency Reserve of Rs. 6.00 million, as a
matter of professional prudence, to provide a suitable safeguard for any possible
losses of lease receivables in the future. It is proposed to keep on contributing
suitable sums to the Contingency Reserve in the future years as well in order to
evolve a strong base of the Modaraba's balance sheet. This has been done in
addition to the transfer of a sum of Rs. 3.001 million to the Special Reserve in
compliance with the prudential guidelines. As a consequence of these steps, the
capital and reserve base of your Modaraba has increased from Rs. 143.0486
million of the previous year, to Rs. 158.052 million. The Board is confident that
the prudent measures adopted by your management in the context of the
prevailing conditions would be duly appreciated. As a consequence of the above
appropriations, unutilised profit of Rs. 11.893 million is available which is being
carried forward to the next year.
OPERATIONS DURING THE YEAR:
The year under review has been rather unprecedented in many ways. The
declining growth of the gross national product and deteriorating performance of
the manufacturing sector in the country persisted all along during the year.
Consequently, decline in the fresh investments and business-expansion
restricted new leases on the one hand and, on the other, the cash-flow problems
of the industrial and business sectors affected the servicing of existing lease
rentals. In order to ensure preservation of the quality leasing port-folio, your
Modaraba had to accept lower returns from the lessees of stronger financial
strength. Rescheduling in certain cases had to be agreed in view of the genuine
difficulties of the lessees. Your management is fully conscious of the importance
of making concerted efforts to minimise incidence of default and your Board is
happy to report that a constant in-flow of lease rentals was maintained in
majority of the leases during the year. Your Modaraba, in line with the entire
financial sector, anticipates deterioration in the servicing of the recoveries during
the current year and effective steps shall be taken to safeguard your Modaraba
against any adverse effects thereof.
The total earnings of your Modaraba increased from Rs. 46.402 million of the
previous year to Rs. 53.464 million, indicating a growth of 15.2 per cent. The
operating expenses increased from Rs. 11.042 to Rs. 13.275 million mainly due
to the inflationary causes and refurbishment of Modaraba's offices at Karachi
and Lahore. The financial charges also increased from Rs. 12.903 million to Rs.
13.953 million due to utilisation of further credit lines which, in turn, contributed
towards the improvement of the earnings.
During the year, your Modaraba was able to mobilise fresh credit lines and
musharaka finance to supplement cash resources and to further improve upon
the matching maturities profile. The Board is happy to report that your Modaraba
continues to have enough resources to pursue its growth, based on prudence
and diversity.
FUTURE PROSPECTS:
The uncertainties in which the entire country is living at the moment, in view of
the post-blast effects, make it difficult to predict any significant improvement in
the size and quality of the business during the next year. Your Board shares the
general view of the careful and conservative members of the financial sector that
any fresh commitments during the current year should be made only with
extreme caution and selectivity. It would be more prudent to preserve the cash
resources and assets of the Modaraba rather than undertaking leasing and other
commitments where the financial strength and track record of the counter parties
is not beyond any doubt. Consequently, it would be a hard task to achieve any
significant growth in the balance sheet during the year 1998-99 but qualitative
and quantitative aspects of the current standing of the Modaraba shall be
meticulously safeguarded.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:
The Board places on record its appreciation of the hard work and devoted efforts
contributed by the staff to the successful operations of the Modaraba.
The Board also places on record its acknowledgment of the valuable guidance and
assistance extended by the Registrar Modaraba and the Corporate Law Authority.
