DIRECTORS' REPORT
Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of' the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to present the 7th annual report of the Company
for the year ended on 30th June 2001 together with audited accounts of the Company and auditors'
report thereon.
The Company has now become a listed entity with effect from the year under review. Twenty five
percent of the paid up capital was offered to general public by an existing shareholder at a premium
of Rs. 70 per share for a total amount of Rs. 100 Million. Subscriptions for Rs. 434,640,000 were
received, which amounted to an over-subscription of 4.3 times of the offer.
Being a committed responsible corporate citizen, the Company has announced its audited financial
results within one month of the close of its financial year and proposes to hold its Annual General
Meeting within three months of the financial year-end.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
By the grace of Allah, despite difficult market conditions during the year under review, your Company
has earned an after tax profit of Rs. 132,560,071 recording an earning per share of Rs. 26.51. Last year's
earning per share was Rs. 45.69 with an after tax profit of Rs. 228,466,044. The Board of Directors is
pleased to recommend a Cash dividend of 50% i.e. Rs. 5 per share for its shareholders.
The summary of financial results and its appropriations are as follow:
Rupees
Profit before taxation 140,870,004
Provision for taxation 8,309,933

Earning per share- Basic and Diluted 26.51
MARKET REVIEW
The stock market remained under bearish spell during most part of the year under review. The KSE-
100 Index declined by 10.15% on yoy basis to 1,366 from 1,520.73. Average daily turnover of shares
at Karachi Stock Exchange has also declined by 56.10% from 184.59 million shares to 118.25 million
shares. This is first time during last ten years that KSE witnessed a negative growth in daily turnover.
The brokerage rates and carry over charges have also declined due to intense competition. Fortunately,
dividend distribution by the listed companies improved impressively. An amount of Rs. 29.61 billion
was distributed as dividend by listed companies as compared to Rs.24.10 billion in the previous year.
Your Company benefited from these improved dividends and recorded a remarkable growth in dividend
income whereas capital gains and brokerage income were less that last year.
The economic performance of the Country was mixed under the difficult global environment due to oil
price hike and signs of slowdown in developed economies. The Country faced a drought like situation
affecting agricultural production. Though budgeted targets of revenue collection and exports were missed
yet, a reasonable growth in these areas was achieved. The investment sentiment has been very weak
mainly because of the continuously declining trend in the value of the Pakistan Rupee Viz. Vis US
Dollar. During the year under review the Rupee depreciated by 23.13%, offering a minimum return of
27% in rupee terms thus driving away most of the rupee liquidity to dollar investments. This is probably
a major reason that foreign portfolio investors are withdrawing from our market. Even the resumption
of the IMF programme and the resolution of the Hubco dispute could not create any positive impact
on investor confidence.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
The financial year 2001-02 has started on a very weak note. The KSE-100 Index has already declined
by 8% during first 30 trading days of current financial year. The average daily turnover is also on lower
side. Business sentiment still is weak. The stock market is passing through a transition phase from the
traditional system of 5 days trading period to T+3 continuous net settlement system and the introduction
of futures trading. It will take some time for the market participants to adjust themselves to the new
system particularly in view of lack of co-ordination amongst the Regulators, Stock Exchanges management
and market participants for smooth implementation of these reforms.
Dividend payout by listed Companies is likely to decline due to two adverse changes brought in by the
government through the last budget, firstly, the levy of tax on bonus shares and secondly, the reduction
in the bench mark for compulsory distribution of cash dividend to avoid tax on reserves from 40% of
the current year's profits to 50% of the paid up capital or 40% of profits whichever is less.
Investors would like to see the IMF approval of PRGF programme for Pakistan. Though the government
has resolved to support the market by injecting liquidity into Stock Market through government financial
institutions and has announced a number of development projects to kick start the economy and industry
but business confidence is likely to return only if the value of Pakistan Rupee stabilises.
Your Company has acquired 40% shares of Arif Habib Investment Management Ltd. (AHIM), an
associated company for Rs. 16 Million out of an approved amount of Rs. 50 Million. AHIM is in process
of launching open-end mutual funds and is unlikely to give any return to its sponsors for the next couple
of years as due to introduction of new IAS 38 recommending whole of pre-operating expenses to be
charged to profit and loss account.
In view of factors mentioned above, the current year looks difficult. The management seeks Allah's
blessings and pledges to work hard to achieve reasonable returns for the Company and its shareholders.
Auditors
The retiring auditors M/s. Rahim, Iqbal, Rafiq & Company, Chartered Accountants, have offered
themselves for reappointment. The Board recommends their reappointment. A resolution proposing the
re-appointment of Rahim, Iqbal, Rafiq & Company as auditor of the Company will be submitted to the
forthcoming Annual General Meeting.
Pattern of Shareholding
The pattern of Shareholding as required by the Companies Ordinance, 1984 is enclosed.
Acknowledgment
We thank our clients for their continuing confidence and patronage. We are grateful to our shareholders
for their trust reposed in us particularly to all those who subscribed to our public offer. We record our
gratitude to the Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan and the management of Karachi, Lahore
and Islamabad Stock Exchanges for their support and guidance. We acknowledge and appreciate hard
work put in by the employees of the Company during the year.
