==========
The year under review witnessed on overall turnaround in the textile sector mainly due to the fall in
cotton prices.
The Company earned an operating profit of Rs. 93.215 million and net profit of Rs. 35.991 million
which are 16.6% & 6.41% of the sales respectively.
Though the overall revenue from sales is lower by 12% as compared to last year but due to decrease
in cotton prices and by controlling the production and operating cost the gross profit at Rs. 115.772
million & net profit at Rs. 35.991 million showed an increase of 157% & 233% over last year respectively.
Financial charges at Rs. 65.112 million are higher by Rs. 10.420 million over last year, mainly because
of buying cotton through associated undertaking at cost plus mark-up basis.
The results for the year could' have been even better if we were allowed to utilize the cash finance
limits. However, during the year we have managed to reduce the debt burden to a great extent
and are pleased to inform you that the bankers' have agreed to release the limits for the current
year.
Nevertheless, your management has thrived hard to sustain the profit tempo of last year to some
extent and is hopeful of achieving favorable results for the current fiscal.
Keeping in view the cash flows, the sponsoring shareholders voluntarily forego the right to receive
dividends from the Company.
Since the last Annual General Meting Mr. M. Azam Saigol resigned from the Board of Directors of the
Company and in his place Mr. Muhammad Omer Farooq appointed as director of the Company.
We wish to place on record our appreciation for the valuable contribution made by him during his
tenure as director.
The auditors M/s. Hameed chaudhri & Co., Chartered Accountants retire and being eligible, offer
themselves for reappointment.
Statement showing the pattern of holding of shares held by the shareholders of Azam Textile Mills
Limited as on September 30, 2000 is attached.
Your Directors are pleased to record their appreciation of the services rendered by the officers and
workers of the company and hope that the same spirit will continue in the future. We are grateful to
the bankers of the company who have always extended good co-operation towards the running of
the company.
