2. Profit Distribution
The Board in its meeting held on September 04, 2000 has approved the
distribution of profit of Rs. 3.00 (30%) per certificate of Rs. 10 each,
subject to deduction of zakat and tax at source where applicable, for the
year ended June 30, 2000.
An amount of Rs. 14 million has been transferred to statutory reserve in
compliance with the recently issued Prudential Regulations for Modarabas
(para 6 below) which regulations require that not less than 10% of the
Modaraba's after tax profit be transferred to such reserve till such time
as the reserve equals 100% of the paid up capital. Thereafter, a sum not
less than 5% of the after tax profit is to be transferred. Under the
previous Prudential Regulations not less than 20% of the Modaraba's
after tax profits of each year was required to be transferred to this
reserve account.
3. Credit Rating
During the period under review FGM's credit rating was upgraded to A2
from A3 by Pakistan Credit Rating Agency (Pvt.) Limited (PACRA). This
represents the highest credit rating in the entire modaraba sector. In
assigning the aforementioned rating, PACRA has concluded that FGM is
in outstanding financial condition with a consistent record of above
average performance.
4. Review of Operations
The Board is pleased to report that net profit for the year ended June 30,
2000 of Rs. 135 million was 18% higher than the profit during the
corresponding period last year. The main reason for this increase is
reduction in cost of funds and lower provision for doubtful debts. Net
investment in leased assets stood at Rs. 1.92 billion as at June 30, 2000
as against Rs. 1.81 billion last year. Lease disbursements during the
year amounted to Rs. 715 million as against Rs. 769 million last year.
Historically, plant, machinery and equipment used to account for
approximately 75% of lease disbursements which trend has changed in
recent years. During the year under review 42% of disbursements were
for plant, machinery and equipment. The downward trend is mainly due
to slowdown in economic activity and depressed conditions for
investment. Realizing this downward trend in disbursements of plant,
machinery and equipment, steps were taken to generate more motor
vehicle business and as a result 58% of the disbursement for the year
under review was in this segment. In addition to partially making up for
the fall in plant, machinery & equipment disbursements, this change will
result in better profit margins.    However, plant, machinery and
equipment represented 65% of the net leased asset portfolio as at June
30, 2000.
The sectorwise break-up of FGM's lease portfolio below reflects its policy
of avoiding risk concentration in any given sector.
5. Sale of Grindlays by Australia and New Zealand Banking Group
Limited (ANZ) to Standard Chartered plc
ANZ has, on July 31, 2000, sold its Grindlays businesses in the Middle
East and South Asia, and associated Grindlays Private Banking
business, to Standard Chartered plc. The integration of Standard
Chartered and Grindlays in Pakistan will result in the largest foreign
bank in the country.
6. Prudential Regulations for Modarabas
We are pleased to report that during April 2000 the Securities and
Exchange Commission of Pakistan issued Prudential Regulations for
Modarabas. These regulations required full compliance by June 30, 2000.
7. Business Outlook
Sluggish economic conditions continue with the leasing environment
being very competitive. However, there is a niche market for leasing and
FGM has a fair share of this business. Future significant growth in
leased assets and increase in profitability is dependent, inter-alia, on
improvement in the economic environment and strengthening of the
economy.
8. Acknowledgement
The Board places on record its appreciation of the services rendered by
the staff members responsible for FGM's affairs.
9. Auditors
The present auditors Messrs. A. F. Ferguson & Co., being due for
retirement, have offered themselves for re-appointment for the year
ending June 30, 2001. Subject to approval by the Registrar of Modaraba
Companies & Modarabas, their appointment has been confirmed by the
Board.
