Chief Executives Review

It gives me great pleasure to present the Annual Report and review of the performance of your Company for the financial year ended Dec 31, 2010. By the grace of Almighty Allah, your Company has continued its journey on the road to excellence during the year 2010 although the countrys overall economic situation and business environment made business growth difficult.
OPERATING RESULTS ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT The year 2010 proved to be very challenging for the economy of Pakistan. In the beginning of the year, the economy was on track and performed better than in the previous year. However, the worst flooding ever damaged about one fourth of the countrys agriculture heartland and destroyed over three million bales of cotton resulting in a cumulative loss of about 1.5% to GDP. The severe energy crisis continued to impact the manufacturing sector and overall business activities. Consequently, the countrys economy continued to remain under stress and according to the State Banks projections will miss three targets - GDP growth, fiscal deficit and inflation. Despite better performance of the services sector, GDP growth is expected between 2 to 3% against growth target of 4.5%. Higher cost of imports, energy, commodities products and rising demand significantly contributed to raise the inflation to 16%. The task of economic recovery is difficult but the government is making efforts to restore macroeconomic stability and the confidence of business. Net Sales Net Income after Tax Earnings per Share Rs. (Million) Rs. (Million) Rupees Year ended December 31 2010 2009 13,913 1,838 198.99 11,428 1,297 140.43

By the grace of Almighty Allah, your Company has made steady progress in its financial performance and managed to improve its net sales by 22% as compared to last year. The profit after tax improved to Rs.1,838 million against Rs.1,297 million of last year. Your Company retained its strong position as the supplier of choice by focusing on good management practices, commitment to quality and better marketing mix. BUSINESS REVIEW Your Company has been engaged in a long journey during the last several years to achieve excellence and consistent growth in its business. A major key to our success has been continuous development of innovative ingredients to meet our customers requirements while reducing their cost. Our product portfolio spans three major categories Industrial, Food and Animal Nutrition & Health Ingredients which are supplied to multiple industries.

6|

Annual Report

for the year ended December 31, 2010

Our brands are our customers preferred choices in the respective categories due to your Companys focus on the changing needs of our customers. We aim to be real business partners and solution providers to our customers through strong business relationships and our continued quest for innovative ways of doing business in order to expand into new markets and product applications. INDUSTRIAL BUSINESS The Company offers a diversified range of products to the Industrial sector. The growth in this sector is the result of sharpening our focus on customers needs, exploring growth opportunities and promoting timely delivery of our products across the country. Our diversified range of regular and modified starches under the brand names of Rafhan , Penetrose , Amisol , Tex-o-Film and Coratex are consumed in textile weaving and processing as most favored ingredients. The textile mills sector has shown recovery from the global demand recession due to progress in its export base. However, short availability of cotton coupled with a drastic increase in prices of cotton yarn, the liquidity crunch and frequent disruptions in electricity and gas supply affected the operation of downstream textile units. Paper and paperboard demand in Pakistan has grown in line with the overall improvement in educational and industrial consumption. Large investments are being made by manufacturers in this sector to enhance the domestic capacities of quality paper and paperboard to meet the growing demand, which in turn helped to generate demand

for your Companys Q-Tac starches. The corrugation and paper sack industries also operated at a normal pace to cover demand for packaging of industrial, electronics and food products; creating demand for the sale of Tex-o-Film and Coragum starches and Dextrins. We consider diversification of our product-line to be a major factor for growth and viability in the ever changing market scenario. Over the years, the Company has continued to focus on innovation in its product line for the industrial sector to fulfill the modern needs of our customers for new applications. FOOD BUSINESS Despite a challenging market situation, your Company was successful in growing the food ingredient business with proactive strategies, service excellence and efforts to expand our customer base. The Company successfully continued to deliver supplies of sweeteners to our customers despite logistical constraints, through our coordinated supply chain. The major part of demand came from the export-led sugar confectionery segment for liquid glucose. However, small and medium confectioners were impacted by growing inflationary pressure on input costs, a rise in utilities prices and frequent power breakdowns. Our food business is characterized by a diversified portfolio of customers. Our product-line covers a wide range of products including Globe and Snowflake starches,

Chief Executives Review

Rafhan Liquid Glucose, Cerelose Dextrose Monohydrate, Rafhan Liquid Caramel and Golden Syrup. Despite adverse economic factors, demand from major food industries has shown marginal improvement. Your Company continued as a trusted supplier to the food segment. Innovative solutions provided to the food sector have opened the door for other opportunities. Your Company remains committed to further expanding its product-lines for different applications in food products. ANIMAL NUTRITION AND HEALTH BUSINESS The Animal Nutrition ingredients include Prairie Gold and Rafhan Maize Gluten Meals, Buffalo Maize Bran, Rafhan Maize Germ Cake, Enzose Hydrol and Rafhan Crude Corn Oil. This segment delivered good performance because of stable demand from poultry, livestock and aquaculture segments. The poultry business has shown strength despite high inflation. Similarly growth in fish farming and dairy cattle segments continued to drive demand.

During the past few years, the dairy sector has shown progress due to the governments incentives to promote dairy farming to meet a growing demand for milk and milkbased products. Consequently, the use of formula feed rations has shown an upward trend. EXPORTS Your Company continues to align its strategic plans to take advantage of emerging global trends and opportunities. In 2010, the Company has made continuous efforts to increase sales by enhancing its presence in the export markets. At the same time, we remained focused on fresh challenges and opportunities within and beyond the territorial limits of the country. We believe that your Company is well positioned to take advantage of its experience and diversified product-line to explore regional markets. At the same time, our people are constantly engaged in assessing customers needs and market dynamics in export markets to develop our core competencies. RAW MATERIAL - MAIZE For the past 57 years, your Company has won as one of the most recognized and respected name among agrobased industries in Pakistan. We were the first Company to conceptualize and execute the unique idea of spring maize (corn) cultivation. Throughout this long history, the story of success still continues. Your Company is committed to play a leading role in agricultural advancement in Pakistan by providing integrated solutions and agronomical assistance to the farming community to meet growing maize consumption demand in the country. We provide to the farmers expert advice free of cost through our agricultural experts who are based in the field. Our maize production and purchase teams proactively play an integral role by helping farmers to improve crop yield and productivity by sharing best practices. Through our agricultural efforts, we have strategically been able to increase the area under cultivation in addition to improving the crop yields.

Annual Report

for the year ended December 31, 2010

In our quest for professional excellence, your Company is striving for continuous improvement in the procurement process to cope with the present challenging economic environment where strategic procurement is as important as strategic selling. With growing demand of maize from different sectors, the need for quality raw material and enhancement in yields has become all the more important for a stable supply chain. The year under review was not good for maize cultivation. The spring crop was impacted by unfavorable weather at the time of pollination, and less availability of water for irrigation due to power load-shedding. The winter crop was partly damaged in KP and southern Punjab due to floods. Lower than target production against strong demand from livestock and other sectors pushed the price of maize to all time high level during the year 2010. INVESTMENT Your Company has always followed its policy to invest into new technologies and product innovation which is the core strength of its business. We are well cognizant of market needs and changing business dynamics to continuously enhance our competencies to meet customers needs with higher product standards. Our goal is to provide customized solutions to our customers to support market growth. We are determined to optimize our manufacturing capabilities and to maintain Companys position as one of the leading ingredient suppliers. Over the years, the plant capacity has gradually been increased and your Company now operates from two locations with sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet market demand. Construction work on our third plant in the South region is in progress to meet the growing demand and potential growth in the Southern markets. Your Company has embarked upon an expansion program and spent an amount of Rs. 582 million during the year 2010.

We are confident that continued investment in our people and technologies would enable us to achieve our strategic goals. We shall continue to pursue our expansion and diversification projects in an anticipation to meet the growing demand from local resources. OPERATIONS Our strategies have repeatedly proven effective at achieving sustained and quality output from our plants. This is a result of our commitment towards operational efficiency of manufacturing facilities. Our plants have shown a solid production performance over the years driven by continuous production enhancement, process optimization and efficiency improvements in all plants. We have equipped our plants with state-of-the-art facilities which combine competent people, technology and management system to achieve profitable growth in line with our growth strategy from year over year. Multiple steps were taken to recover production losses due to energy shortage in the country and several energy saving measures were taken to improve energy optimization. Processes were reengineered and employees trained for coordinated efforts and teamwork to enhance productivity. Extended electricity and gas load-shedding affected the overall productivity. Each rupee of the investment was spent in the right place. However, your Company maintained its momentum to produce according to market demand and customer needs which helped maintain market leadership. The management developed a system for close monitoring of critical and important operations and took timely versatile measures to reduce production losses and improve/maintain efficiency of machines. INTEGRATED QUALITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Quality and Safety are key indicators in our core values and, therefore, are of high priority at all levels. Quality

Besides, we qualified a number of customers audits from multinational pharmaceutical and food companies and obtained excellent ranking which clearly indicate Companys commitment to its quality management systems. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Innovation is a key to our success. We consider diversification of our product-line as a major factor to continue to compete effectively. There is a constant endeavor at all levels of the organization to enhance Companys performance by offering upgraded range of its products and services. Research and Development is an integral part of our operations designed to keep pace with the technological advancement and maintain the

The following additional actions were taken in the area of CSR and Sustainability: The Company contributed Rs.1.9 million to the fund for rehabilitation of flood affected people. Contributed in the uplift of countrys economy by providing free agricultural advisory service to the farmers of various provinces. New plant is being set up in the South region for socio economic uplift of the area.

challenges. As the year 2010 was full of challenges due to escalating costs of energy, raw materials and spares, full emphasis was focused on the cost savings in designing our in-house training programs by including following topics: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Standard Operating Procedures Control of Critical Parameters Personal Hygiene at Plant Data Logging and Analysis Energy, Water Conservation and Waste Control Control of Manufacturing Supplies Material Consumptions Development of Spares and Enhancing their Working Life Re-engineering of Processes Root Cause Analysis to Improve Efficiency of Equipment

fast growing challenges. Our team members are aware of their corporate and social responsibilities to promote your Companys reputation as a model corporate citizen. VALUES AND BUSINESS CONDUCT POLICIES Your Companys Core Values and Business Conduct Policies are critical in establishing an ethical and honest culture. The training program titled PILLARS-VALUES AND BUSINESS CONDUCT WORKSHOP continued during the year and a number of sessions were held to promote the understanding of the Core Values and their compliance by employees. The training included all employees, at all levels of the Company. BUSINESS RISKS, CHALLENGES AND FUTURE PROSPECTS The economic outlook for 2011 remains problematic. Some of the major challenges are: low growth, high inflation, rising unemployment, continued fiscal indiscipline, surging food and energy prices, expensive credit to private sector and low foreign investment. Whereas a sustained flow of home remittances from overseas Pakistanis happens to be a consolation, food and oil imports are likely to put pressure on the balance of payments. The State Bank of Pakistan has already revised the inflation rate to 16% which would continue to impact the cost of production. However, the performance of the commodity producing sectors of the economy is expected to improve in the months ahead. Large scale manufacturing growth is expected to turn positive as strong agri-prices support demand and with the additional capacities coming on line in some major industries. As such the macroeconomic imbalances in the economy are still manageable provided immediate steps are taken to implement critical structural adjustments. Pakistans economy has always shown resilience during unfavorable business environments and we are hopeful that the initiatives being taken by the Government and the

political parties on the agenda for economic reforms would be helpful in reviving economic growth. In view of the prevalent market circumstances, the performance of consuming segments may remain depressed which may impact overall demand for our products especially from downstream consuming industries. Inflationary pressure on the cost of maize, utilities and other overhead will continue, however, it may be difficult to include the total impact of cost increases in the prices of our products. The management of your Company is fully aware of the challenges ahead and is taking measures to face those challenges by adopting market driven strategies, optimizing manufacturing capabilities, striving for continued differentiation of our products and services and continuing our operational excellence and prudent use of our resources. We are confident that our journey on the track of progress will continue and we will continue to create value for all our stakeholders. CORPORATE DISTINCTIONS Your Company continued to be recognized for high performance by receiving the Top 25 Companies of Pakistan Award from the Karachi Stock Exchange for the fourteenth year in a row.

Review Report to the Members

on Statement of Compliance with Best Practices of Code of Corporate Governance

We have reviewed the Statement of Compliance with the best practices contained in the Code of Corporate Governance prepared by the Board of Directors of Rafhan Maize Products Company Limited (the Company) to comply with the Listing Regulations of Karachi and Lahore Stock Exchanges. The responsibility for compliance with the Code of Corporate Governance is that of the Board of Directors of the Company. Our responsibility is to review, to the extent where such compliance can be objectively verified, whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Companys compliance with the provisions of the Code of Corporate Governance and report if it does not. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Company personnel and review of various documents prepared by the Company to comply with the Code. As part of our audit of financial statements we are required to obtain an understanding of the accounting and internal control systems sufficient to plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach. We have not carried out any special review of the internal control system to enable us to express an opinion as to whether the Boards statement on internal control covers all controls and the effectiveness of such internal controls. Further, Sub-Regulation (xiii a) of Listing Regulation No.35 (previously Regulation No.37) notified by The Karachi Stock Exchange (Guarantee) Limited vide circular KSE/N-269 dated 19 January 2009 requires the Company to place before the Board of Director for their consideration and approval of related party transactions distinguishing between transactions carried out on

terms equivalent to those that prevail in arms length transactions and transactions which are not executed at arms length price recording proper justification for using such alternate pricing mechanism. Further, all such transactions are also required to be separately placed before the audit committee. We are only required and have ensured compliance of requirement to the extent of approval of related party transactions by the Board of Directors and placement of such transactions before the audit committee. We have not carried out any procedures to determine whether the related party transactions were under taken at arms length price. Based on our review nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Statement of Compliance does not appropriately reflect the Companys compliance, in all material respects, with the best practices contained in the Code of Corporate Governance as applicable to the Company for the year ended 31 December 2010.

These standards are either not relevant to the Companys operations or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements other then increase in disclosures in certain cases: Amendment to IAS 32 - Financial Instruments: Presentation Classification of Rights Issues (effective for annual periods beginning on or after February 01, 2010). The IASB amended IAS 32 to allow rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entitys own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency to be classified as equity instruments provided the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. This interpretation has no impact on the Companys financial statements. IFRIC 19 - Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 01, 2010). This interpretation provides guidance on the accounting for debt for equity swaps. This interpretation has no impact on Companys financial statements. IAS 24 - Related Party Disclosures (revised 2009) effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 01, 2011. The revision amends the definition of a related party and modifies certain related party disclosure requirements for governmentrelated entities. The amendment would result in certain changes in disclosures. Amendments to IFRIC 14 IAS 19 - The Limit on a Defined Benefit Assets, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 01, 2011). These amendments remove unintended consequences arising from the treatment of prepayments where there is a minimum funding requirement. These amendments result in prepayments of contributions in certain circumstances being recognised as an asset rather than an expense. This amendment is not likely to have any impact on Companys financial statements. Improvements to IFRSs 2010 In May 2010, the IASB issued improvements to IFRSs 2010, which comprise of 11 amendments to 7 standards. Effective dates, early application and transitional requirements are addressed on a standard by standard basis. The majority of amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The amendments include list of events or transactions that require disclosure in the interim financial statements and fair value of award credits under the customer loyalty programmes to take into account the amount of discounts or incentives that otherwise would be offered to customers that have not earned the award credits. Certain of these amendments will result in increased disclosures in the financial statements. Amendments to IFRS 7 - Disclosures Transfers of Financial Assets (effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011). The amendments introduce new disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets including disclosures for financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety; and financial assets that are derecognised in their entirety but

for which the entity retains continuing involvement. This amendment is not likely to have any impact on Companys financial statements. 3 Basis of measurement These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for recognition of certain employees retirement benefits at present value. Summary of significant accounting policies 4.1 Trade debts Trade debts are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful debts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. Bad debts are written off when identified. 4.2 Revenue recognition Sale of goods Revenue represents the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods sold, net of discounts and sales tax. Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue, and the associated cost incurred, or to be incurred, can be measured reliably. Revenue from sales is recognized upon transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to buyers i.e. dispatch of goods to customers. Interest Income from bank deposits and loans is recognized on accrual basis. 4.3 Taxation Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current Provision of current tax is based on the taxable income for the year determined in accordance with the prevailing law for taxation of income. The charge for current tax is calculated using prevailing tax rates or tax rates expected to apply to the profit for the year if enacted after taking into account tax credits, rebates and exemptions, if any. The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary, to provision for tax made in previous years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years. Deferred Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of all temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of the taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except in the case of items credited or charged to equity in which case it is included in equity. 4.4 Earning per share The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

4.5 Operating segments The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a single reportable segment. 96.46% (2009: 97.46%) out of total sales of the Company relates to customers in Pakistan. All non current assets of the Company as at 31 December 2010 are located in Pakistan. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment except freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any identified impairment loss. Freehold land is stated at cost less any identified impairment loss. Cost in relation to certain property, plant and equipment signifies historical cost and borrowing costs as referred to in note 4.16. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on a straight-line-basis. Rates of depreciation, which are disclosed in note 5, are designed to write off the cost over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation methods, residual values and useful lives of the assets are reviewed at least at each financial year end and adjusted if impact on depreciation is significant. Depreciation on additions to property, plant and equipment is charged from the month in which the asset is acquired or capitalised, while no depreciation is charged for the month in which the asset is disposed off. The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that property, plant and equipment may be impaired. If such indication exists, the carrying amounts of such assets are reviewed to assess whether they are recorded in excess of their recoverable amount. Where carrying values exceed the respective recoverable amount, assets are written down to their recoverable amounts and the resulting impairment loss is recognised in income currently. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Where an impairment loss is recognised, the depreciation charge is adjusted in the future periods to allocate the assets revised carrying amount over its estimated useful life. Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repair and maintenance costs are charged to income during the period in which they are incurred. The gain or loss on disposal or retirement of an asset represented by the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised as an income or expense. 4.7 Intangible assets The Company reviews the rate of amortization and value of intangible assets for possible impairment on an annual basis. Any change in the estimates in future years might affect the carrying amounts of intangible assets with a corresponding affect on the amortization charge and impairment. 4.8 Capital work-in-progress Capital work in progress and stores held for capital expenditure are stated at cost less any identified impairment loss and represents expenditure incurred on property, plant and equipment during the construction and installation. Cost also includes applicable borrowing costs. Transfers are made to relevant property, plant and equipment category as and when assets are available for use. Retirement and termination benefits Defined contributions scheme The Company operates a defined contribution approved provident fund for all its eligible employees, in which the Company and the employees make equal monthly contributions at the rate of 14% of basic salary including dearness allowance of employees. Defined benefits schemes The Company also maintains an approved gratuity fund for all its employees and an approved pension fund for officers and above-grade employees, having a service period of minimum 10 years.

The contributions are made to pension and gratuity funds in accordance with the actuarys recommendations based on the actuarial valuation of these funds as at 31 December 2010. The future contribution rates of these funds include allowances for deficit and surplus. Projected unit credit method is used for valuation of these funds based on the following significant assumptions:

Gratuity Fund 2010 2009 Discount rate Expected return on plan assets Contribution rates (% of basic salaries) Annual increase in pension rate Expected rate of growth per annum in future salaries 14.50% 13.50% 6% 14.50% 12.75% 13% 6% 12.75%

Pension Fund 2010 2009 14.50% 13.50% 16% 5% 14.50% 12.75% 13% 11% 5% 12.75%

The actuarial gains and losses are recognized in the period in which they occur directly in shareholders equity and presented in the statement of comprehensive income. 4.10 Compensated absences The Company accounts for compensated absences on the basis of unavailed earned leave balance of each employee at the end of the year.

4.11

Stores and spares These are valued at lower of cost, which is calculated according to moving average method, and net realizable value. Stores in transit are valued at invoice value including other charges, if any, incurred thereon.

4.12

Stocks in trade Stocks in trade have been valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business less estimated costs to complete and to make the sale. Cost has been determined as follows: Raw materials Moving average cost Work in process Moving average cost Finished goods Moving average cost

4.13

The variance between standard and actual cost on work in process and finished goods is charged to cost of sales. Research and development cost Research and development costs are charged to profit and loss account in the year in which these are incurred.

4.14

Foreign currencies All monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into rupees at exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into rupees at exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated into rupees at exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency that are stated at fair value are translated into rupees at exchange rates prevailing at the date when fair values are determined. Exchange gains and losses are included in the income currently.

4.15

Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise of cheques in hand, cash and bank balances.

4.16 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs incurred on related property, plant and equipment are capitalized till the date of commissioning. All other borrowing costs are included in the profit and loss of the period on an accrual basis. 4.17 Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. However, provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best estimate. 4.18 Financial assets and liabilities Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given and received respectively. These financial assets and liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost or cost, as the case may be. The particular measurement methods adopted are disclosed in the individual policy statements associated with each item. 4.19 Off-setting of financial assets and financial liabilities A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set-off the recognized amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Trade and other payables Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently at amortized cost using effective interest rate method. Other amounts payable are carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in future for goods and services. 4.21 Impairment losses Financial assets A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicate that one or more events had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flow of that asset. An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as a difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its current fair value. Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on a individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics. Non financial assets The carrying amounts of the Companys non-financial assets, other than biological assets, investment property, inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the assets recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and groups.

Impairment losses are recognized in profit and loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets of the unit on a pro-rata basis. Derivative financial instruments These are initially recorded at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are re-measured to fair value at subsequent reporting dates. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Company designates certain derivatives as cash flow hedges. The Company documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flow of hedged items. Derivatives are carried as assets when fair value is positive and liabilities when the fair value is negative. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognized in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the profit and loss account. Amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in profit and loss account in the periods when the hedging items will effect profit or loss. However, when the forecast hedged transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the asset or liability. Any gain or loss from change in fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are taken directly to profit and loss account. 4.23 Related party transactions Transactions with related parties are priced at comparable uncontrolled market price except for the assets sold to employees under the employees car scheme as approved by the board of directors. Parties are said to be related if they are able to influence the operating and financial decisions of the Company and vice versa. Dividends Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognized as a liability in the period in which it is approved by the shareholders.

The Income Tax Department has charged tax of Rs. (thousands) 81,078 for the assessment year 2001-2002 (financial year ended 30 September 2000) under section 12(9A) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1979 (Repealed) on the allegation that the dividend distribution by the Company was less than 40% of its after tax profits. Against this levy, the Company filed an appeal with the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), which was rejected. The Company preferred an appeal with the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) against the order of CIT (Appeals). The ITAT vide order dated 21 April 2006 decided the case in favour of the Company and confirmed that levy of tax under section 12(9A) was against the provisions of the law and directed the assessing officer for decision in accordance with the provisions of amended clause 59 of Part IV, Second Schedule to the repealed Income Tax Ordinance, 1979. The Income Tax Department has moved to Lahore High Court on 17 October 2006, against the orders of ITAT. The case has not been fixed for hearing so far. No provision has been made in these financial statements as according to the management of the Company, it is probable that this case will be decided in favour of the Company. The legal advisors of the Company have concurred with the managements view.

The main purpose of financial liabilities is to raise finance for the Companys financial assets which comprise long term loan, trade debts, Loans and advances, trade deposits and short term prepayments, other receivables and Cash and bank balances. The company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: Credit risk Liquidity risk Market risk The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of Companys risk management framework. The Board is also responsible for developing and monitoring the Companys risk management policies. 32.1 Credit risk Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognised at the reporting date if counter parties fail completely to perform as contracted and arise principally from long term loans, trade debts, loans and advances, trade deposits and short term prepayment and other receivables and cash and bank balances. Out of the total financial assets of Rs. 462,740 thousand (2009: Rs. 1,085,249 thousand) financial assets which are subject to credit risk amount to Rs. 442,783 thousand (2009: Rs. 1,011,175 thousand). To manage exposure to credit risk in respect of trade receivables, management performs credit reviews taking into account the customers financial position, past experience and other factors. Where considered necessary, advance payments are obtained from certain parties. Sales made to major customers are secured through security deposits, bank guarantees and letters of credit. To manage exposure to credit risk, the company applies credit limits to its customer and obtains advances from certain customers. All investing transactions are settled / paid for upon delivery. The Companys policy is to enter into financial instrument contract by following internal guidelines such as approving counterparties and approving credits. Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of counter parties are engaged in similar business activities or have similar economic features that would cause their abilities to meet contractual obligation to be similarly effected by the changes in economic, political or other conditions. The Company believes that it is not exposed to major concentration of credit risk. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure before any credit enhancements. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is:

The Companys approach to managing liquidity is to ensure as far as possible to always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company is not materially exposed to liquidity risk as substantially all obligations / commitments of the Company are short term in nature and are restricted to the extent of available liquidity. In addition, the Company has obtained overdraft facilities from various commercial banks to meet any deficit, if required to meet the short term liquidity commitments. 11,428 2,471 13,899 10,651 780 (3) 11,428 3,935 5,214 1,383 896 11,428 319,300 5,214 1,383 896 326,793 380,134 10,688 390,822 287,809 38,984 326,793

Sensitivity analysis: At reporting date, if the PKR had strengthened by 10% against the foreign currencies with all other variables held constant, before tax profit for the year would have been lower by the amount shown below, mainly as a result of net foreign exchange gain on translation of foreign debtors, foreign currency bank account and trade and other payables. 2010 Effect on profit and loss US Dollar 1,040 1,040 1,975 1,975 2009

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments


The Company does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss. Therefore a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit and loss account.

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments


A change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have decreased / (increased) pofit for the year by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2009. Profit and loss 100 bps Increase Decrease (Rupees in thousand) As at 31 December 2010 As at 31 December 2009 242 424 (242) (424)

The sensitivity analysis prepared is not necessarily indicative of the effects on profit for the year and assets / liabilities of the Company. 32.3.3 Other price risk Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk). The company is not exposed to any price risk as there are no financial instruments at the reporting date that are sensitive to price fluctuations. Fair value of financial instruments The carrying values of the financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair values. Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arms length transaction.
