| DIRECTORS'
REPORT TO THE MEMBERS |
|
|
| Dear Members |
|
|
| Your
Directors are pleased to present their report alongwith the audited accounts
for the year |
|
| ended
June 30, 2001. |
|
|
| The
depressed market conditions, excess supply of cement, exorbitant increase in
input costs and |
|
| inequitable
taxation has greatly affected the results of your company. |
|
|
| OPERATING

|
|
|
| OPERATING
RESULT |
|
| We
have informed last year that the enormous increase in the prices of furnace
oil and |
|
| inequitable
imposition of sales tax on cement industry is leading the industry towards
disaster. The |
|
| current
years results of your company have shown that our apprehension were right as
result of |
|
| which
your company suffered heavy losses. |
|
|
| The
company as compared to last year's gross profit of Rs. 237.285 million has
suffered gross loss |
|
| of
Rs. 3.336 million, which was mainly due to two reasons. Firstly the decrease
in net selling prices |
|
| due
to inequitable imposition of sales tax and secondly the massive increase in
furnace oil prices. |
|
| The
increase of 20% in operating expenses and 21% in financial expenses resulted
in loss before |
|
| tax
of Rs. 114.493 million as compared to last year profit of Rs. 131.232
million. |
|
|
| DEBT
OBLIGATION |
|
| By
the grace of God the company continues to meet its financial commitments and
debt |
|
| obligations
on time. |
|
|
| FUTURE
PROSPECTS |
|
| The
recent developments in the region and the economic slow down in the country
has also |
|
| affecting
the cement industry adversely. The demand for the cement in the country is
almost |
|
| stagnant
an as such chances of increasing the operating efficiency are very remote.
However, |
|
| in
line with the strategy adopted by the cement industry, your company is also
planned to |
|
| change
the fuel system from furnace oil to coal. In this respect machinery has
already been |
|
| acquired
and the erection and installation is in progress. The management is confident
that with |
|
| use
of coal as fuel the company shall be able to produce better results. |
|
|
