Financial and Operational Performance The comparison of the un-audited results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011 as against March 31, 2010 are as follows: Jan - March Jan - March 2011 2010 (Rupees in million) Net sales 5,192 5,043 EBITDA - operations 516 462 Depreciation & amortisation (378) (381) EBIT - operations 138 81 Finance costs (351) (300) Other operating income / (expenses) - net 4 3 Investment income 642 750 Earnings before tax 433 534 During the first quarter of 2011, your Company has achieved net sales of Rs. 5,192 million with improved operating results. The Company generated EBITDA of Rs. 516 million during the quarter under review against Rs. 462 million of corresponding period of 2010 representing 11% growth emanating from better product mix, operating cost control and price rationalisation. The investment income has declined by Rs. 108 million over the corresponding period of 2010 mainly on account of timing differences in receipt of dividend income from related parties. The production statistics for the period under review along with its comparison with the corresponding period are given below: Jan - March Jan - March 2011 2010 Paper and paperboard produced - tons 34,411 43,394 Paper and paperboard converted - tons 30,064 25,792 Plastics all sorts converted - tons 3,082 2,632 A review of the operations of different business units is as follows: Packaging Operations The Packaging Operations has registered sales of Rs. 3,321 million during the first quarter of 2011 as compared to Rs. 2,254 million of the corresponding period representing sales growth of 47%. Packaging Operations has achieved EBITDA growth of Rs. 289 million resulting from the revenue growth, better product mix and product price rationalisation. 4 Paper & Board Operations During the first quarter of 2011, external sales of Paper & Board Operations dropped by Rs. 1,022 million over corresponding values of 2010 resulting into corresponding decrease in EBITDA by Rs. 161 million. This decline in sales volume is attributable to a number of factors including: • Planned shut down of Brown Paper Machine (PM-6) for capacity expansion by 30,000 tons to enable production of high value added liquid packaging and bleached board on the machine. Paper Machine (PM-6) re-build project is expected to be completed in time and the machine will be in commercial production in second quarter of 2011. • Energy is the second highest cost component in paper & paperboard manufacturing. Continued shortage of natural gas caused severe disruption in production and use of alternate fuel results in negative effect on the competitiveness. • The writing and printing paper being produced on Paper Machine (PM-7) is facing unfair competition from imported paper that is being sold at dumping prices. Such unfair competition is adversely impacting profit margins and the Company has initiated a number of measures to counter such unfair practices including filing of application for imposition of anti-dumping and regulatory duties on the paper being imported. Consumer Products Division The Consumer Products Division has registered sales of Rs. 591 million during the first quarter of 2011 as compared to Rs. 497 million of the corresponding period of 2010 representing sales growth of 19%. Future Outlook In consideration of the current economic situation, rising raw material prices and energy shortages, the management will continue its focus to improve shareholder's value through price rationalisation, product and process optimisation, reduction of operating costs and efficient working capital management. Company's Staff and Customers We wish to record our appreciation of the commitment of our employees to the Company and continued patronage of our customers.
