DIRECTORS' REPORT
Dear Shareholders,
Assalam-o-Alaikum.
Your directors have pleasure in presenting the 28th Annual Report along with the Audited Accounts and Audi-
tors Report for the year ended 30th June, 2001.
During the year the company by the Grace of Allah has achieved net sales of Rs. 186,614,084/- compared to
Rs. 121,456,071/- in the preceding year, which translates to an improvement of Rs. 65.158 million (53.65%).
This increase can be attributed to better market condition, quality of product, and increased sales efforts.
Input costs increased over last year because of inflation and associated factors. Production remained the
same as last year.
The company after charging expenses including administrative expenses and providing for depreciation of
Rs. 3,385,693/- and Rs. 10,988,000/- for taxation earned the net profit after tax Rs. 18,532,923/-. Taking into
consideration the un-appropriated profit of Rs. 7,625,859/- brought forward from previous year, and after deduc-
tion of Interim dividend for Rs. 11,797,500/- declared @ 50% (Rs. 5.00 per share), a sum of Rs. 14,361,282/-
is available for appropriation.
The earning per share this year works out to Rs. 7.85 per share.

Mr. M. Hussain Dawood as the Chief Executive of the Company during his tenure.
The three years term of the Board is expiring on 24-03-2002. The Board has decided to link the date of election
of the Directors with that date of the Annual General Meeting and as a consequence will retire at the next
meeting. The new Board will be elected in accordance with provision of section 178 of the Companies Ordi-
nance, 1984. The number of Directors has been fixed at seven for election at the Annual General Meeting.
The retiring auditors M/s. Gangat & Company, Chartered Accountants retire and have offered their services for
the ensuing year.
The Board wishes to place on record its appreciation for the devotion shown by all employees of the company.
The Board of Directors meeting was scheduled for 18-09-2001 which was postponed because of one of the
founding Directors of the Company Seth Suleman Dawood had died on Tuesday 18th September, 2001. The
Board offered Fateha for the illustrious personality of Seth Suleman Dawood and prayed Almighty Allah may
bless him with paradise. The contribution made by Seth Suleman Dawood cannot be adequately described in
words. His loss is most grievously felt and we pray Almighty Allah will bless him with everlasting peace.
