OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE MODARABA COMPANY |
|
|
| The
Directors of Premier Financial Services (Private) Limited, the management
company of |
|
| FIRST
EQUITY MODARABA, present their report and the audited financial statements of |
|
| the
Modaraba for the year ended June 30, 2000. |
|
|
| Financial
Results |
|
| The
profit for the year before management fee and provisions amounted to Rs. 65
million, |
|
| is
improved by 13% from the last half year's reported profit of Rs. 29 million
and 18% from |
|
| the
corresponding full year. The substantial write back of the provision for
diminution in |
|
| the
value of investments as anticipated in the last half year was negated by
fresh |
|
| provisioning
requirement at the year end for non performing assets, thus affecting the |
|
| available
profit by Rs. 9 million. Despite of providing for non performing assets the
earnings |
|
| per
certificate at June 30, 2000 comes to Rs. 1.90 approximately the same as of
the last year's |
|
| Rs.
1.91. This performance, with our conservative income recognition criteria
dictated by |
|
| prudence,
is cause for satisfaction. |

========== |
|
|
| Regulation
and Taxation |
|
| With
the new Prudential Regulations specifically for modarabas in place, the
managers |
|
| have
to respond while investors need to balance the equation. Regulators now
sought for |
|
| diversification
with more stringent regulations. Allowing increase in cash payout as a |
|
| result
of decrease in mandatory reserve at the cost of the financial health of a
modaraba will |
|
| aggravate
the resource mobilisation problems of already cash starved sector. |
|
|
| Conditional
tax exemption needs to be liberalised especially after Regulators have
permitted |
|
| issue
of bonus certificates. Tailor made treasury stock rules specifically for
modarabas is |
|
| demand
of the time and may bring value to the investor. |
|
|
| Business
Environment and Performance |
|
| Our
adherence to the financial sectors' dependence on trade and industry remains
valid. |
|
| Multilateral
assistance to Pakistan has been committed and major structural reforms |
|
| launched.
The financial implications of structural external imbalances are yet to be |
|
| crystallized.
We, therefore, do not foresee major improvements in the industrial sector. |
|
|
| Last
years' improvement in the agricultural products may not be achieved for the
current |
|
| year.
This alongwith increase in value of imports due to sharp increase in rupee
parity |
|
| coupled
with high rate of government borrowings bound to increase inflation. |
|
|
| As
envisaged, our estimate of earnings on equity investment has proved itself.
We were |
|
| able
to mobilise capital gain of Rs. 5.4 million as compared to a loss of Rs. 1.6
million last |
|
| year.
The dividend income also registered an increase of 34% over the last year.
The |
|
| average
carrying value of our equity investments yielded 22.5% as compared to 5.7% in
the |
|
| same
period last year. |
|
|
| The
export target of US$ 10 billion seems to be achievable with continuous slide
of rupee |
|
| value
and steep decline in financial cost. Being a non bank financial institution,
we were |
|
| also
effected by this decline in profit rates, but cautiously, managed to get
better yield on |
|
| our
average investments in morabahas. Unless, sizeable investment is made in the
much |
|
| needed
BMR expansion, in the textile sector, the small players will loose their
market share. |
|
|
| Other
than the textile and agro-based manufacturing the other industrial sector
remain |
|
| under
pressure. Without the capital investments, resolution of IPPs brawl,
deregulation of |
|
| gas
sectors, privatisation of state owned companies and greater incentives to
value added |
|
| textile
sector, the process of revival of economy may not be achieved. |
|
|

Significant Accounting Policies |
|
|

|
| convention. |
|
|
|
|
| 2.2
Fixed assets and depreciation |
|

|
| Fixed
assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is |
|

|
| asset

|
| are
charged to income as and when incurred. Gains and losses on disposal of |
|
| assets
are taken to the profit and loss account. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2.3
Deferred costs |
|
|
|
| Expenses
incurred in connection with the floatation and capital enhancement |
|
| of
the Modaraba are being written off over a period of five years on a |
|
| proportionate
basis as the benefit of these expenses will be derived over an |
|
| extended
period of time. |
|
|
|
|
| 2.4 Investments |
|
|
| (a)
Investments are stated at cost and provisions are made for other than |
|
| temporary
diminution in value, if any. |
|
|
| (b)
Gains and losses on disposal of investments are taken to the profit and |
|
| loss account. |
|
