DIRECTORS’ REPORT
ITTEHAD CHEMICALS LIMITED Quarterly Report September 30, 2008
3
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Ittehad Chemicals Limited, I am pleased to present the un-audited financial statements of the Company for the first quarter ended September 30, 2008. Net Sales for the period have shown a sturdy growth of 31.2% and stood at Rs. 858.69 million as compared to Rs. 654.43 million for the corresponding quarter last year. Cost of sales for the quarter under review has increased by 29% from the corresponding period of last year due to increase in fuel & power rates and sky rocketing inflation. Gross profit for the period is Rs. 201.87 million as against Rs. 146.49 million in the preceding period of last year. During the quarter under review the pre-tax profit stood at Rs. 81.56 million as compared to Rs. 35.62 million of the last years’ first quarter. Your company has shown a positive growth in profit after tax which came to Rs. 52.38 million compared to Rs. 20.84 million for the corresponding quarter last year. As a consequence the Earning per share for the quarter is Rs. 1.45 as compared to Rs. 0.58 for the corresponding quarter of last year. The Country’s overall economy reflects a lack luster performance during the quarter under review. At present inflationary pressure, energy crisis, liquidity crunch, high interest rates, Pak rupee devaluation and unbearable increase in power tariffs in September 2008 have increased challenges to the industry, so there is need for prompt and effective remedial action from the Government to curb macroeconomic imbalances in the economy. The Government also needs to be supportive of the manufacturing sector and it is vital to ensure consistency and transparency in economic policies. Despite of all above challenges and anticipated gas stoppage in winter, our focus will be to remain profitable in the existing lines of business with the ultimate objective of long term growth. We will persist in making efforts to sustain our success through maintaining our quality standards, sales volume and profit margins. The Board of Directors acknowledges and deeply appreciates the contributions made by the Company’s staff, valued customers and other stakeholders in the achievement of the Company’s goals.

13.2 Commitments
Commitments as on September 30, 2008 were as follows:
Demand for Rs. 56.437 million for assessment year 1996-97 with respect to disallowance of expenses
incurred on account of Golden Hand Shake (GHS) and of Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) for
reason of non deduction of tax on these payments was set aside by the Honorable Income Tax Appellate
Tribunal (ITAT) with direction to re-compute the tax liability by using the specified methodology. The
Inspecting Additional Commissioner (IAC), vide his order dated December 23, 2003 had restored the
original assessment under section 66-A of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1979 without considering the
directions of ITAT. Management had filed a revised petition before ITAT and Reference Application
before the Learned Lahore High Court. The matter had been remanded back to IAC by ITAT.
The Company is facing claims, launched in the labour courts, pertaining to staff retirement benefits. In
the event of an adverse decision the Company would be required to pay an amount of Rs. 4.680 million
(June 30, 2008: Rs. 4.680 million) against these claims.
Letters of guarantee outstanding as at September 30, 2008 were Rs. 209.056 million (June 30, 2008:
Rs.207.997 million) and corporate guarantee on behalf of Chemi Chloride Industries Limited amounted
to Rs. 118 million (June 30, 2008: Rs. 118 million)
- Against letter of credit outstanding amounting to Rs. 71.651 million (June 30, 2008: Rs. 73.086 million)
- Against purchase of land amounting to Rs. 1.838 million (June 30, 2008: Rs 1.838 million).
In order to avoid further delay in the subject case, management filed an application to the Federal Board
of Revenue (FBR) for appointment of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee (ADRC) in October
2007. ADRC had agreed with the Company’s viewpoint and recommended that the tax demand should
not be more than Rs. 5.50 million. FBR had considered the recommendations of ADRC and vide its order
under section 134A dated May 8, 2008 had directed the Commissioner of Income Tax to take necessary
action for implementing the said order. Now CIT office is in the process of allowing the said expenses.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ITTEHAD CHEMICALS LIMITED Quarterly Report September 30, 2008
On behalf of the Board of Directors I am pleased to present the un-audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary, Chemi Chloride Industries Limited (CCIL), for the first quarter ended September 30, 2008. The Directors’ Report on the performance of Ittehad Chemicals Limited (ICL), for the first quarter ended September 30, 2008 has been presented separately. During the period under review CCIL has made net sales of Rs. 6.21 million and earned gross profit of Rs. 1.33 million. The Company posted after tax loss of Rs. 3.94 million due to fixed overheads and high finance cost which could not be recovered on account of low production and under utilization of capacity. The subsidiary company has therefore reported a negative earning per share of Rs. 0.06 for the quarter under review whereas group’s earning per share is Rs. 1.34. The Management expects that the subsidiary company’s (CCIL) results will improve after overcoming the plant’s operational problems by foreign engineers whose arrival is still awaited. CCIL has obtained approval from its shareholders in their Annual General Meeting held on October 14, 2008 for the issuance of fully paid ordinary shares by way of otherwise than rights u/s 86(1) of the Companies Ordinance 1984 to Ittehad Chemicals Limited, the holding Company and now the CCIL is going to file an application to SECP under section 86(1) of the Companies Ordinance 1984 for permission to issue these shares.

13.2 Commitments
Commitments as on September 30, 2008 were as follows:
Demand for Rs. 56.437 million for assessment year 1996-97 with respect to disallowance of expenses
incurred on account of Golden Hand Shake (GHS) and of Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) for
reason of non deduction of tax on these payments was set aside by the Honorable Income Tax Appellate
Tribunal (ITAT) with direction to re-compute the tax liability by using the specified methodology. The
Inspecting Additional Commissioner (IAC), vide his order dated December 23, 2003 had restored the
original assessment under section 66-A of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1979 without considering the
directions of ITAT. Management had filed a revised petition before ITAT and Reference Application
before the Learned Lahore High Court. The matter had been remanded back to IAC by ITAT.
The Company is facing claims, launched in the labour courts, pertaining to staff retirement benefits. In
the event of an adverse decision the Company would be required to pay an amount of Rs. 4.680 million
(June 30, 2008: Rs. 4.680 million) against these claims.
Letters of guarantee outstanding as at September 30, 2008 were Rs. 209.056 million (June 30, 2008:
Rs.207.997 million) .
- Against letter of credit outstanding amounting to Rs. 71.651 million (June 30, 2008: Rs. 73.086 million)
- Against purchase of land amounting to Rs. 1.838 million (June 30, 2008: Rs 1.838 million).
In order to avoid further delay in the subject case, management filed an application to the Federal Board
of Revenue (FBR) for appointment of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee (ADRC) in October
2007. ADRC had agreed with the Company’s viewpoint and recommended that the tax demand should
not be more than Rs. 5.50 million. FBR had considered the recommendations of ADRC and vide its order
under section 134A dated May 8, 2008 had directed the Commissioner of Income Tax to take necessary
action for implementing the said order. Now CIT office is in the process of allowing the said expenses.
