Financial Overview

 

Net sale revenue during the period declined by over 19% compared with last year despite the surge in sale volume. The decline in revenue is mainly ensued from decrease in cement prices in the country. On an average the net sale prices declined by over 37% from corresponding period. Main reason being that due to new capacities having come on stream there was an over supply position which put a pressure on prices. Sale revenue mentioned above includes only 4 days of commercial operations of new cement plant at Khairpur. Rising inflation is a threat to cost of production. Energy and  fuel prices are steadily rising in both international and local markets. During the period under review the coal and furnace oil price increased significantly thereby put burden on the cost of production. On the other hand rate of kraft paper has shown continuous rise and on average paper bag cost witnessed an increase of 16%. Due to rising coal rates in international market and hike in inland freight due to increase in petroleum prices in the country, management decided to use gas for heating the kiln. To start with gas firing equipment for plant 2 at D.G. Khan has been procured and about 60% of the coal has been replaced with gas. This change is expected to reduce energy cost during FY 2008. After accounting for all charges including depreciation /amortization of Rs. 494.205 million, financial charges of Rs. 468.173 million and Rs. 98.0 million for provision for taxation (including deferred tax Rs. 65.0 million) etc. your company earned a net profit of Rs. 1,622.471 million.

 

 

Expansion (Cement Grinding)

 

Work in the new vertical cement grinding mill at D.G. Khan site is in progress. The shipments from plant supplier have begun and cement grinding mill is expected to start its operation in the last quarter of FY 2008. After the start of vertical grinding mill the excess clinker produced at D.G. Khan site would be ground and sold.

 

 

Future Outlook

 

Mammoth Public Sector Development Plan (PSDP) of Rs. 520bn. was announced in the Federal budget FY 2008 against Rs. 435bn. last year. This year the increase in PSDP is 20% which is less than last year’s increase of 35%, but this year the PSDP is largely infrastructural centric and about 50% of the total outlay has been fixed for construction related development projects. Work on different water reservoirs is in progress and funds have been allocated for big dams like Basha diamer. In addition, raising of Mangla Dam is also in progress which entails large quantity of cement. Going forward, Govt. has also announced construction of 250K low cost housing units for Govt. employees in the next five years. In addition, Pakistan is short of housing projects compared with regional neighboring, hence construction activities especially in housing sector are booming. We anticipate sizable cement demand in the coming years due to these factors. Cement industry of Pakistan has been demanding a cut in central excise duty (CED) which is higher compared with regional countries and one of the major reasons for higher cement prices. Govt. reduced the CED couple of years back and promised to slash CED further gradually, but no announcement was made in the budget FY 2008. On the contrary in budget FY 2008 special excise duty @ 1% has also been imposed on manufacturing activities, which will adversely affect the profitability of the sector. Timely decision of expansion undertook by Pakistani entrepreneurs put the Pakistani cement industry in a position to export sizable cement to regional countries which are short of cement. But the incentive announced in trade policy of FY 2006-07 for the construction of bulk handling and storage facilities of cement and clinker has not materialized, which is a serious impediment in smooth export activities. In addition, cement industry is also pleading to allow export of cement by land route to India which is short of cement by about 10 million tons. If the Govt. allows export of cement by land route it will be best suited to your company, as its new cement plant at Khairpur Dist. Chakwal is at a short distance from Wagha Border, Lahore. Export of cement from northern border has also started from Khairpur plant.
