DIRECTORS' REPORT TO THE CERTIFICATE HOLDERS OF FIRST PARAMOUNT MODARABA

The Directors of Paramount Investment Limited, Management Company of First Paramount Modaraba, are pleased to present the duly audited financial statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2025.

For the year ended 30 June 2025, the Modaraba reported a pre-tax profit of Rs. 31,979,755 as compared to Rs. 40,659,604 in the prior year, representing a decline of 21%. Net profit after tax was Rs. 23,898,201, lower by Rs. 4,644,276 (16%) compared to last year. Earnings per Certificate stood at Rs. 1.73, as against Rs. 2.07 in the preceding year.

Decline in profits from last year was primarily due to lesser economic activity in Oil & Gas Sector of the Country which translated into slight decline in profits of FPM Petro Services - in house venture of the Modaraba. This trend would not likely to continue this year. Overall, Country's economy is in state of recovery with some constant positive indicators. However, it still requires some reforms to take effect before it can get out of imminent threats.

During the year, the Modaraba made progress across multiple fronts:

  • FPM Petro Services sustained its role as a vital business division. Through portfolio realignment, continuous addition of new products, and a focus on volume growth, the division continued to deliver positive results. With increasing activity in the local hydrocarbon exploration sector, the Board anticipates further expansion of this business segment.
  • FPM AML-CHECK, the Modaraba's AML/CFT screening services division, significantly broadened its customer base, adding several reputable domestic clients. Although not yet profitable, the division achieved steady revenue growth and built a strong foundation for future financial contribution. The Board expects this segment to generate meaningful returns for Certificate Holders in the coming financial year.
  • Paramount Compliance (Private) Limited (PCPL), a wholly owned subsidiary, is expected to further strengthen AML/CFT business. Its UK-based arm, Complytech Global Limited, is actively exploring international markets in South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Though still in its early phase, this initiative supports the Modaraba's long-term international expansion strategy and is aimed at creating additional value for Certificate Holders.
  • DigiEstate, another Project of the Modaraba, currently under SECP's Regulatory Sandbox, represents the Modaraba's strategic intent to adopt technology-driven business models. The Shariah-compliant Asset Fractionalization Platform, once successfully tested and deployed, is expected to unlock innovative investment opportunities and contribute meaningfully to profitability for the direct benefit of Certificate Holders.

As per revised Modaraba Regulations issued on 15 August 2022 by SECP, all deposit taking Modarabas were required to have a minimum equity of Rs. 500 million (FPM's is at 273.89 million) and a minimum credit rating of "A-" (FPM's rating is BBB) in a period of 3 years. Regulations also restricted issuance of dividend to Modaraba's certificate holders until compliance of these conditions are made. Accordingly, no dividend has been declared or recommended for the year ended 30 June 2025.

Modaraba is actively pursuing to achieve minimum Equity threshold and minimum Credit Rating levels to comply with the above requirements of the regulations which will also help in enhancing Modaraba's businesses further. In this regard, two distinct proposals of Equity enhancement (duly approved by the Board of Directors & Shariah Advisor of the Modaraba) have been submitted with the honourable Registrar. Additionally, Modaraba has also filed an application with honourable Registrar Modaraba or for the grant of extension in deadline for compliance in these regards.

The Board of Directors and the Management of Modaraba are fully committed to comply with the requirements of these Regulations and meeting the criteria mentioned therein.

Independent Auditor's Review Report To the certificate holders of First Paramount Modaraba
Review Report on the Statement of Compliance contained in Listed Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019

We have reviewed the enclosed Statement of Compliance with the Listed Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019 (the Regulations) prepared by the Board of Directors of Paramount Investment Limited, the Management Company of First Paramount Modaraba (the Modaraba), for the year ended June 30, 2025 in accordance with the requirements of regulation 36 of the Regulations.

The responsibility for compliance with the Regulations is that of the Board of Directors of Management Company. Our responsibility is to review whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Modaraba's compliance with the provisions of the Regulations and report if it does not and to highlight any non-compliance with the requirements of the Regulations. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Modaraba's and the Management Company's personnel and review of various documents prepared by the Management Company to comply with the Regulations.

As a part of our audit of the 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 are not required to consider whether the Board of Directors' statement on internal control covers all risks and controls or to form an opinion on the effectiveness of such internal controls, the Management Company's corporate governance procedures and risks.

The Regulations require the Management Company to place before the Audit Committee, and upon
recommendation of the Audit Committee, place before the Board of Directors for their review and approval, its related party transactions. We are only required and have ensured compliance of this requirement to the extent of the approval of the related party transactions by the Board of Directors upon recommendation of the Audit Committee.

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 Management Company's compliance, for and on behalf of the Modaraba, in all material respects, with the requirements contained in the Regulations as applicable to the Modaraba for the year ended June 30, 2025.

Further, we highlight below instances of non-compliance with the requirements of the Regulations as reflected in the paragraph reference where these are stated in the Statement of Compliance:

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in Pakistan. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Unconsolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Modaraba and Modaraba Company (Paramount Investments Limited) in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants 'Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants' as adopted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (the Code) and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

the
murabaha financing which is its substantial
income source (Refer note 21.1 to the
unconsolidated
financial
statements).
During the year, the Modaraba has
recognized income of Rs. 13.23 million.
We identified income from the murabaha
financing as a key audit matter because of
the potential risk that income from the
murabaha financing transactions may not
be accurately recorded, recognized in the
appropriate period, and not properly
disclosed in the unconsolidated financial
statements.
Our audit procedures in respect of this matter included
the following:
- Obtained an understanding, including the design and
implementation of internal controls over recording and
processing of murabaha income.
- Assessed the appropriateness of the Modaraba's
accounting policy for recording of income and in line
with the requirements of applicable law, accounting
and reporting standards.
- Matched customer contracts with the income and
repayment schedule, performed recalculation on
sample basis to ensure that income is appropriately
recorded and also evaluated that these contracts were
appropriately classified and recorded in the
appropriate accounting period.
- On sample basis, traced the installments received from
the underlying records issued to contract holders and
applied substantive analytical procedures to determine
any variations.
- Evaluated the income accrued but not received is
appropriately classified as suspended income as per
applicable modaraba regulations.
- Recalculated the unearned portion of income and
checked the appropriate amount has been recorded as
unearned income in liabilities.
We also evaluated the adequacy of the overall
disclosures in the unconsolidated financial statements in
respect of income from murabaha financing in
accordance with the requirements of applicable financial
reporting framework.
02 Stock in trade
(Refer note 27.1.2, amounting to Rs. 12.48)

financial
statements.
The
Modaraba
values its stock-in-trade at the lower of cost
and net realizable value (NRV), with cost
determined using the weighted average
method.
Our audit procedures include the following:
- We assessed the appropriateness of the Modaraba's
accounting policies relating to stock-in-trade valuation,
including the use of the weighted average method, for
compliance with applicable accounting standards and
Modaraba Regulations.

$uv$

The application of the weighted average
method requires accurate recording of
purchase and consumption transactions.
Further, determination of NRV involves
- We tested the design and operating effectiveness of
controls over the recording of stock transactions and
valuation.
judgment in assessing market conditions
and realizability.
- On a sample basis, we verified purchase costs to
supporting invoices and recalculated
weighted
average cost to assess accuracy.
Given the significance of the balance and
involvement of estimation, this area was
considered a key audit matter.
- We evaluated the NRV assessment by reviewing
subsequent sales prices and market data to ensure
that stock was not carried above realizable value.
- We checked whether provisions for slow-moving or
obsolete stock were adequately considered.
We also evaluated the adequacy of the overall
disclosures in the unconsolidated financial statements.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of management and Board of Directors of the modaraba company for the unconsolidated financial statements

Management of the Modaraba Company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the unconsolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and the requirements of Modaraba Companies and Modaraba (Floatation and Control) Ordinance, 1980 (XXXI of 1980) and for such internal control as management of the Modaraba Company determines is necessary to enable the preparation of unconsolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the unconsolidated financial statements, management of the Modaraba Company is responsible for assessing the Modaraba's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management of the Modaraba Company either intends to liquidate the Modaraba or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Board of directors of the Modaraba Company are responsible for overseeing the Modaraba's financial reporting process.

UHU

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the unconsolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurances about whether the unconsolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these unconsolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: -

  • a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the unconsolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control:
  • b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Modaraba's internal control;
  • c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management of the Modaraba Company:
  • d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the management of the Modaraba Company's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Modaraba's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the unconsolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Modaraba to cease to continue as a going concern; and
  • e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the unconsolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the unconsolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the board of directors of the Modaraba Company regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the board of directors of the Modaraba Company with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the board of directors of the Modaraba Company, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the unconsolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

UMU

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Based on our audit, we further report that in our opinion:

  • a) proper books of account have been kept by the Modaraba Company in respect of the Modaraba as required by the Modaraba Companies and Modaraba (Floatation and Control) Ordinance, 1980 (XXXI of 1980);
  • b) the unconsolidated statement of financial position, the unconsolidated statement of profit or loss, the unconsolidated statement of other comprehensive income, the unconsolidated statement of changes in equity and the unconsolidated statement of cash flows together with the notes thereon have been drawn up in conformity with the Modaraba Companies and Modaraba (Floatation and Control) Ordinance, 1980 (XXXI of 1980) and are in agreement with the books of account;
  • c) business conducted, investments made, expenditure incurred and guarantees extended during the year by the Modaraba were in accordance with the objects, terms and conditions of the Modaraba; and
  • d) no zakat was deductible at source under the Zakat and Ushr Ordinance, 1980 (XVIII of 1980).

The preparation of these unconsolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting and reporting standards, as applicable in Pakistan, requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates underlying the assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Information about the judgments made by the management in the application of the accounting policies, that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in these annual unconsolidated financial statements, assumptions and estimation uncertainties with significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amount of asset and liabilities in the next year are described in the following notes:

MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION 4.

The material accounting policy information applied in the preparation of these unconsolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated:

$4.1$ Fixed Assets

These are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairments, if any. Cost of fixed assets consists of historical cost.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Modaraba and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized while normal replacements, repairs and maintenance are charged to unconsolidated statement of profit and loss.

Depreciation is charged to profit and loss account applying the reducing balance method at the rates mentioned in note (5). Depreciation on additions and disposals during the year is charged from the date asset is available for use while no depreciation is charged from the date asset is disposed. When parts of an item of asset have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate item in property and equipment. The residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted, if required.

An item of fixed assets is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gain or loss on disposal of fixed assets are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are taken to the unconsolidated statement of profit and loss account currently.

Intangible assets $4.2$

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are amortized under the reducing balance method at the rate of thirty percent per annum.

The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

$4.3$ Loans to employees

Loans to employees are granted by Modaraba for purchasing of vehicles or for other purposes, as approved by the management on case-to-case basis. Loans granted are initially recorded at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, these are stated at amortized cost.

Murabaha financing $4.4$

Modaraba obtains an undertaking (promise to purchase) from the client and purchases the requested assets / goods from third parties and takes possession of such goods / assets that are the subject matter of murabaha arrangements. However, the Modaraba can appoint the client as its agent to purchase the assets/goods on its behalf. Thereafter, it sells these goods / assets to the client at cost plus the profit agreed upon in the promise. Murabaha sale is recorded at the invoiced amount and profit is recognized in accordance with IFAS-1 (Murabaha) to the extent of pro-rata portion of sale price received as compared to total agreed price. Profit on the portion of sale revenue not due for payment is deferred and recognized as liability. Goods purchased by the Modaraba but remained unsold, with the Modaraba constitute inventories, if any at reporting date.

$4.5$ Modaraba financing

Modaraba is a kind of partnership where one partner gives money to another for investing it in a commercial enterprise. The investment comes from the first partner who is called "rabb-ul-mal" (here FPM), while the management and work are an exclusive responsibility of the other, who is called "modarib" and the profits generated are shared in a predetermined ratio. Modaraba receivable are reflected at principal amount.

$4.6$ Musharaka financing

Musharaka is an agreement between two or more parties to combine their assets, labour or liabilities for the purpose of making profit. Modaraba is dealing in the following forms of Musharaka.

a) Diminishing musharaka

In diminishing musharaka based financing, the Modaraba enters into a Musharaka based on Shirkatul-mulk (Joint arrangement) for financing an agreed share of fixed asset (e.g., house, land, plant or machinery) with its customers and enters into yearly profit payments agreement for the utilization of the Modaraba's Musharaka share by the customer. The customer with each rental payments also purchases Modaraba's Musharaka share by paying additional amount and therefore becomes the sole owner of the subject asset at the maturity of the diminishing musharaka.

b) Musharaka financing

Modaraba enters into financing arrangement with customers based on Shirkat-ul-agd (contractual partnership) in customers' operating business. Under this mechanism, the customer can withdraw and return funds to the Modaraba subject to his running musharaka financing limit during the musharaka year. The customer pays the provisional profit which is subject to final settlement based on the actual results of the business / transaction.

4.7 Financial instruments

Investments and other financial assets

a) Classification

The Modaraba classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

  • those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
  • those to be measured at amortized cost

The classification depends on the Modaraba's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in the statement of profit and loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Modaraba has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Modaraba reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

b) Measurement

At initial recognition, the Modaraba measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Modaraba's business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Modaraba classifies its debt instruments:

Amortized cost

Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognized directly in statement of profit and loss and presented in other income / (other expenses) together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit and loss.

Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVTOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses), interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to statement of profit and loss and recognized in other income / (other expenses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other income / (other expenses) and impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit and loss.

Fair value through profit or loss

Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at FVTPL is recognized in the statement of profit and loss and presented net within other income / (other expenses) in the period in which it arises.

Equity instruments

The Modaraba subsequently measures all equity investments except for investment in subsidiary at fair value for financial instruments quoted in an active market, the fair value corresponds to a market price (level 1). For financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, the fair value is determined using valuation techniques including reference to recent arm's length market transactions or transactions involving financial instruments which are substantially the same (level 2), or discounted cash flow analysis including, to the greatest possible extent, assumptions consistent with observable market data (level 3).

Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Where the Modaraba's management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVTOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.

Fair value through profit or loss

Changes in the fair value of equity investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other income / (other expenses) in the unconsolidated statement of profit and loss as applicable.

Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in statement of profit and loss as other income when the Modaraba's right to receive payments is established.

Financial liabilities

Classification and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also included in statement of profit and loss.

i) Impairment of financial assets

The Modaraba assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortized cost and FVTOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

The Modaraba applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach for measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all financial assets, except in the case of calculation of impairment provision on financial assets where the requirements of the Prudential Requlations for Modaraba applies, it is recognized as higher of (on customer basis):

  • the provision required under the Modaraba Regulations, 2021; and
  • the provision required under IFRS 9 using the expected credit loss (ECL) model.

Loss allowance on advances and bank balances is measured at 12 months expected credit losses. Since these assets are short term in nature, therefore no credit loss is expected on these balances. The Modaraba is also not expecting a material impact on loan to employees and deposits.

ii) De-recognition

a) Financial assets

The Modaraba derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, or it neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control over the transferred asset. Any interest in such derecognized financial assets that is created or retained by the Modaraba is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

b) Financial liabilities

The Modaraba derecognizes a financial liability (or a part of financial liability) from its unconsolidated statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

iii) Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are set off and the net amount is reported in the unconsolidated financial statements when there is a legally enforceable right to set off and the Modaraba intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and to settle the liabilities simultaneously.

4.8 Investment in subsidiary company

Investments in subsidiaries is initially recognized at cost. At subsequent reporting dates, recoverable amount is estimated to determine the extent of impairment loss, if any, and carrying amount of the investment adjusted accordingly.

$4.9$ Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried in balance sheet at cost. For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances with banks in current and deposit accounts and investments with short term maturity.

4.10 Stock in trade

Stock in trade is measured at lower of cost and net realizable value as at the reporting date. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.

Net realizable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs necessary to be incurred in order to make a sale. If the net realizable value is lower than the carrying amount, a write-down is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its net realizable value. Provision is made in the unconsolidated financial statements for obsolete and slowmoving stock in trade based on management estimate.

4.11 Trade debtors and other receivables

Trade debtors and other receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on review of outstanding amounts as per expected credit losses model (ECL) as required by IFRS 9 as at year end date.

4.12 Joint Operations (Musharaka arrangements)

The Modaraba has certain contractual arrangements with other participants to engage in joint activities, where all significant operating and financial policies are predetermined by the participants, such that the Musharik has no significant independence to pursue its own strategies.

The unconsolidated financial statements of the Modaraba include its prorata share of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in joint operation and are accounted for on the basis of profit statements.

4.13 Statutory reserve

Statutory reserve represents profit set aside to comply with the Prudential Regulations for Modarabas issued by the SECP vide S.R.O. 284(I)/2021 dated March 05, 2021. These Regulations require Modaraba which is not compliant with minimum equity requirements as provided in the regulations, shall create reserve fund to which shall credit an amount equivalent to 100% of its annual after-tax profit till such time the minimum equity requirements are complied with. During the year, the Modaraba transferred 100% of its after-tax profit.

4.14 Certificates of musharaka

These are measured at principal amount on balance sheet date. The amount received by the modaraba from Certificate of Investment holders is invested in the overall business activity of the modaraba on the basis of full participation in the profit or loss of the modaraba.

The profit shall be shared by Certificate of Investment holders and certificate holders in accordance with the agreed ratio. Profit on certificate of investment arrangement is recognized as financial expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Profit on Musharaka finance is accounted for on the basis of the projected rate of profit. The effect of adjustments, if any, between actual rate and projected rate of profit is accounted for at the end of each quarter after determination of the actual rate.

4.15 Creditors and other liabilities

Creditors and other liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently measured at amortized cost.

4.16 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Modaraba assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that assets 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 recognized in unconsolidated statement of profit and loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

Where impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to lower of revised recoverable amount or initial cost of asset less accumulated depreciation (if any) to date. Reversal of impairment loss is recognized as income.

4.17 Revenue recognition

For each sale transaction, purchase order forms a contract between the Modaraba and a customer and the goods to be delivered under that contract are the Modaraba's identified performance obligation, the contract contains determined and allocated transaction price. The Modaraba satisfies a performance obligation on delivery of goods to the customer and recognizes the revenue.

Revenue murabaha is recognized as per the requirements of the Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFASs). Repayment schedule is agreed at the start. Payments are usually due over the period of contract at different dates.

Profit / return on deposits / investments is recognized on accrual basis.

Murabaha profit:

Profit on transactions under murabaha arrangements is recognized on a pro-rata basis taking into account the elapsed duration for payment of murabaha amounts payable by the customer. Profit not due for payment in the current year is deferred by accounting for unearned murabaha income with corresponding credit to deferred murabaha income which is recorded as a liability. The same is then recognized as revenue on a time proportionate basis as and when the due dates approach for payment of recoverable amounts by the customers.

  • Musharaka management fee is recognized on accrual basis.
  • Profit on musharaka financing is recognized on declaration of profit by musharaka partners on accrual basis.
  • Realized capital gains / (losses) arising on sale of investments are included in the profit and loss account on the date at which the transaction takes place.
  • Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the dividend is established.

4.18 Taxation and levy

Current

Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income for the year at the current rate of taxation after taking into account applicable tax credits, rebates and exemptions available, if any. Tax charge for the current year is determined in accordance with the prevailing laws for taxation. The charge for current tax is calculated using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The charge for the current tax also includes adjustments relating to prior years, if necessary, arising from assessments finalized during the year.

Deferred

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet liability method on all major temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the tax base used in computation of the taxable profit. Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the year when the differences reverse based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Levy

Tax charged under Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 which is not based on taxable income or any amount paid / payable in excess of the calculation based on taxable income or any minimum tax which is not adjustable against future income tax liability is classified as levy in the statement of profit and loss as these levies fall under the scope of IFRIC 12/IAS 37.

4.19 Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Modaraba that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Modaraba's other components. All operating segments' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Modaraba Management Company's Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. In review and evaluation performance process, the business is considered as a single operating segment and the Modaraba's business is evaluated on an overall basis other than musharaka arrangement with joint venture partner which is monitored separately.

Segment results that are reported for review and performance evaluation include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate assets, administrative expenses, and income tax assets and liabilities.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the year to acquire Property and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill.

4.20 Employee benefits

a) Defined contribution plan

The Modaraba operates approved funded contributory provident fund scheme for all its employees. Equal monthly contributions are made both by the Modaraba and the employees at the rate of 8.33% percent per annum of the basic salary.

b) Compensated absences

The Modaraba accounts for the liability in respect of employees' compensated absences in the year in which they are earned.

4.21 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Modaraba has a present 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 obligation can be made.

4.22 Profit distributions and appropriations

Profit distributions are recognized as a liability in the unconsolidated financial statements in the year in which these are approved. Transfers to statutory reserve and the mandatory appropriations as may be required by law are recognized in the year to which these relate.

4.23 Certificate capital and earning per certificate

The Modaraba presents basic and diluted earnings per certificate data for its ordinary certificates. Basic earnings per certificate is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary certificate holders of the Modaraba by the weighted average number of certificates outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per certificate is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary certificate holders and the weighted average number of ordinary certificates outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary certificates.

4.24 Contingencies

Contingencies are disclosed when the Modaraba has possible obligation that arises from past event and whose existence will be confirmed only by occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of entity, or a present obligation that arises from past event but is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of recourse embodying economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation or, when amount of obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

4.25 Related party transactions

All related party transactions are carried out by the Company on arm's length basis.

4.26 Deposits, advances, prepayments and other receivables

Deposits, advances, prepayments and other receivables are stated initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

22.1 In accordance with the Modarabas Regulations 2021 (the "Regulations") issued by the SECP through S.R.O. 284(1)/2021 dated March 5, 2021, the authority to issue Certificates of Musharaka (COM) by a Modaraba will be automatically suspended if the Modaraba becomes non-compliant with any of the conditions outlined in Regulation 19 of the Regulations. However, existing Modarabas with valid permissions to issue COM, which are non-compliant, are required to achieve compliance within one year of the effective date of these regulations provided that, during this one-year interim period, the total COM of such Modarabas will be capped at the existing level, i.e., the outstanding balance as of the date the regulations came into force.

On August 15, 2022, the SECP, via S.R.O. 1547(I)/2022, amended these regulations. These amendments extend the compliance period to three years in cases of non-compliance with the conditions outlined in Regulation 17(1) subject to certain conditions. The Modaraba, based on legal advice, understands that the compliance period for Regulation 19 is also considered as extended to 3 years given the conditions of Regulation 19 are that of Regulation 17(1).

As the extended timelines has also lapsed on August 14, 2025 and the Modaraba is non-compliant with the credit rating and minimum equity requirements as outlined in Regulations 17 and 19, the Modaraba has formally filed renewal application with the Registrar Modaraba. Based on the correspondence with the Regulator, the management is confident that the renewal application would be accepted in favor of Modaraba.

RISK MANAGEMENT 38.

38.1 Financial risk management

The Modaraba's objective in managing risk is the creation and protection of certificate holders' value. Risk is inherent in the Modaraba's activities, but it is managed through monitoring and controlling activities which are primarily set up based on limits established by the Management Company, the Modaraba's constitutive documents and the regulations and directives of the SECP. These limits reflect the business strategy and market environment of the Modaraba as well as the level of the risk that the Modaraba is willing to accept. The Board of Directors of the Management Company has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Modaraba's risk management framework.

The Modaraba has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Market risk

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the Modaraba by failing to discharge an obligation. The risk is generally limited to outstanding amount against financing facilities and trade debts. The Modaraba's policy is to enter into financial contracts in accordance with the risk management policies and the requirements of the Modaraba rules and regulations.

The carrying amount of these financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure at the reporting date.

Description of collateral held

The Modaraba holds security in the form of mortgage of properties, hypothecation and pledge of goods and demand promissory notes against modaraba, murabaha, diminishing musharaka and musharaka investments.

Concentration of credit risk

The Modaraba manages credit risk and its concentration through diversification of activities to avoid undue concentration of risks with individuals, groups or specific industry segments. For this purpose, the Modaraba has established exposure limits for individuals / groups and industrial sectors.

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 Modaraba believes that it is not exposed to major concentration of credit risk. The modaraba's bankers are of good rating. Details of the industrial sector analysis of each financing are as follows:

Modaraba's operations are restricted to Pakistan only.

Credit risk rating:

The credit quality of balances with banks that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings (If available) or to historical information about counterparty default rate:

Rating 2025 2024
Banks Long-term Short-term Agency * (Rupees) **
Habib Bank Limited ААА $A1+$ PACRA 422,674 87.257
Habib Metropolitan Bank Limited $AA +$ $A1+$ PACRA 10,725,612 22,099,192

Bank Islami Pakistan Limited AA- A1 PACRA 2,829 2,717
18,145,778 47,028,134

Due to the Company's long standing business relationships with these counterparties and after giving due consideration to their strong financial standing, management does not expect non-performance by these counterparties on their obligations to the Modaraba. Accordingly, the credit risk is minimal.

$(b)$ Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Modaraba will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due. Liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Modaraba could be required to pay its liabilities earlier than expected or difficulty in raising
funds to meet commitments associated with financial liabilities as they fall due. ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Modaraba risk by monitoring future cash flows on a day-to-day basis. The amount disclosed in the table are undiscounted cash flows.

Market risk c)

Market risk means that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. The objective is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The currency risk, other price risk and profit rate risk associated with the Modaraba's business activities are stated as under:

$(i)$ Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. At present, the Modaraba is not exposed to currency risk as all the transactions are carried out in Pakistani Rupees.

$(ii)$ Other price risk

Other price risk represents 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), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instrument traded in the market. There is other price risk of changes in the fair value of investment in mutual funds as a result of changes in the levels of net asset value of units held by the Modaraba. As at June 30, 2025, had there been increase / decrease in net asset value by 1%, with all other variables held constant, the profit before tax for the year and equity would have been higher / lower by Rupees 0.23 million (June 30, 2024: Rupees 0.21 million) and Rupees 0.166 million (June 30, 2024: Rupees 0.151 million).

(iii) Profit rate risk

Profit rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in the market yield. The Modaraba has adopted appropriate policies to minimise its exposure to this risk. At the reporting date, the profit rate profile of the Modaraba's significant profit bearing financial instruments was as follows:

38.2 Recognized fair value measurements

(a) Financial assets

Fair value hierarchy

Judgments and estimates are made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognized and measured at fair value in these unconsolidated financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Modaraba has classified its financial instruments into the following three levels.

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available for sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Modaraba is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entityspecific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities.

Investment of the Modaraba carried at fair value are categorized as follows:

The carrying value of all non-financial assets reflected in these unconsolidated financial statements are approximate their fair values. Fair value is determined on the basis of objective evidence at each reporting date.

Independent Auditor's Report

Crowe

To the Certificate holders of First Paramount Modaraba

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated financial statements

Opinion

We have audited the annexed consolidated financial statements of FIRST PARAMOUNT MODARABA and its subsidiaries ("the Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at June 30, 2025, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at June 30, 2025, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in Pakistan. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and the Group Management Company (Paramount Investments Limited) in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants 'Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants' as adopted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (the Code) and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to note 22.1 to the consolidated financial statements, which states that the Group is noncompliant with the credit rating and minimum equity requirements as stipulated in Modaraba Regulations 2021. As fully disclosed in the aforesaid note, the extension period has lapsed on August 14, 2025 and a renewal application has been filed with the authorities which is under process. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Following are the Key audit matters:

S. No Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
01 Income from Murabaha financing
The Group earns income from the
murabaha financing which is its substantial
income source (Refer note 21.1 to the
consolidated financial statements). During
the year, the Group has recognized
income of Rs. 13.23 million.
We identified income from the murabaha
financing as a key audit matter because of
the potential risk that income from the
murabaha financing transactions may not
be accurately recorded, recognized in the
appropriate period, and not properly
disclosed in the consolidated financial
statements.
Our audit procedures in respect of this matter included
the following:
- Obtained an understanding, including the design and
implementation of internal controls over recording and
processing of murabaha income.
- Assessed the appropriateness of the Group's
accounting policy for recording of income and in line
with the requirements of applicable law, accounting and
reporting standards.
- Matched customer contracts with the income and
repayment schedule, performed recalculation on
sample basis to ensure that income is appropriately
recorded and also evaluated that these contracts were
appropriately classified and recorded in the appropriate
accounting period.
- On sample basis, traced the installments received from
the underlying records issued to contract holders and
applied substantive analytical procedures to determine
any variations.
- Evaluated the income accrued but not received is
appropriately classified as suspended income as per
applicable modaraba regulations.
- Recalculated the unearned portion of income and
checked the appropriate amount has been recorded as
unearned income in liabilities.
We also evaluated the adequacy of the overall
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements in
respect of income from murabaha financing in
accordance with the requirements of applicable financial
reporting framework.
02 Stock in trade
(Refer note 27.1.2, amounting to Rs. 12.48)
million)
Stock-in-trade is a material balance in the
financial statements. The Group values its
stock-in-trade at the lower of cost and net
realizable
value
(NRV), with
cost
determined using the weighted average
method.
Our audit procedures include the following:
We assessed the appropriateness of the Group's
accounting policies relating to stock-in-trade valuation,
including the use of the weighted average method, for
compliance with applicable accounting standards and
Modaraba Regulations.

The application of the weighted average
method requires accurate recording of
purchase and consumption transactions.
Further, determination of NRV involves
- We tested the design and operating effectiveness of
controls over the recording of stock transactions and
valuation.
judgment in assessing market conditions
and realizability.
- On a sample basis, we verified purchase costs to
supporting invoices and recalculated weighted average
cost to assess accuracy.
Given the significance of the balance and
involvement of estimation, this area was
considered a key audit matter.
- We evaluated the NRV assessment by reviewing
subsequent sales prices and market data to ensure that
stock was not carried above realizable value.
- We checked whether provisions for slow-moving or
obsolete stock were adequately considered.
We also evaluated the adequacy of the overall
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

Information other than the consolidated financial statements and Auditor's Report thereon

The management of the Group is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group's annual report, but does not include the consolidated and unconsolidated financial statements of the Modaraba and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance or conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of management and Board of Directors of the modaraba company for the consolidated financial statements

Management of the Group is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and the requirements of Modaraba Companies and Modaraba (Floatation and Control) Ordinance, 1980 (XXXI of 1980) and Companies Act, 2017 (XIV of 2017) and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Board of directors of the Group Modaraba Company are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

con

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurances about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: -

  • a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control;
  • b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Modaraba's internal control;
  • c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management of the Modaraba Company;
  • d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the management of the Modaraba Company's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Modaraba's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Modaraba to cease to continue as a going concern; and
  • e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the board of directors of the Group Management Company regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the board of directors of the Group Management Company with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the board of directors of the Group Management Company, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION 4.

These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiary companies.

A company is a subsidiary, if the Holding Company directly or indirectly controls, beneficially owns or holds more than fifty percent of its voting securities or otherwise has power to elect and appoint more than fifty percent of its directors.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Holding Company, using consistent accounting policies. The accounting policies of the subsidiaries have been changed to conform with accounting policies of the Group, where required.

All intra-group balances, transactions and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full.

Where the ownership of a subsidiary is less than hundred percent and therefore, a non-controlling interest (NCI) exists, the NCI is allocated its share of the total comprehensive income of the period, even if that results in a deficit balance.

The assets, liabilities, income and expenses of subsidiary companies are consolidated on a line by line basis and carrying value of investments held by the Holding Company is eliminated against the subsidiary companies' shareholders' equity in these consolidated financial statements.

MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION 5.

The material accounting policy information applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated:

$5.1$ Fixed Assets

These are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairments, if any. Cost of fixed assets consists of historical cost.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized while normal replacements, repairs and maintenance are charged to consolidated statement of profit and loss.

Depreciation is charged to profit and loss account applying the reducing balance method at the rates mentioned in note (5). Depreciation on additions and disposals during the year is charged from the date asset is available for use while no depreciation is charged from the date asset is disposed. When parts of an item of asset have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate item in property and equipment. The residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted, if required.

An item of fixed assets is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gain or loss on disposal of fixed assets are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are taken to the consolidated statement of profit and loss account currently.

$5.2$ Intangible assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are amortized under the reducing balance method at the rate of thirty percent per annum.

The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

5.3 Loans to employees

Loans to employees are granted by the Group for purchasing of vehicles or for other purposes, as approved by the management on case-to-case basis. Loans granted are initially recorded at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, these are stated at amortized cost.

Murabaha financing $5.4$

Modaraba obtains an undertaking (promise to purchase) from the client and purchases the requested assets / goods from third parties and takes possession of such goods / assets that are the subject matter of murabaha arrangements. However, the Modaraba can appoint the client as its agent to purchase the assets/goods on its behalf. Thereafter, it sells these goods / assets to the client at cost plus the profit agreed upon in the promise. Murabaha sale is recorded at the invoiced amount and profit is recognized in accordance with IFAS-1 (Murabaha) to the extent of pro-rata portion of sale price received as compared to total agreed price. Profit on the portion of sale revenue not due for payment is deferred and recognized as liability. Goods purchased by the Modaraba but remained unsold, with the Modaraba constitute inventories, if any at reporting date.

$5.5$ Modaraba financing

Modaraba is a kind of partnership where one partner gives money to another for investing it in a commercial enterprise. The investment comes from the first partner who is called "rabb-ul-mal" (here FPM), while the management and work are an exclusive responsibility of the other, who is called "modarib" and the profits generated are shared in a predetermined ratio. Modaraba receivable are reflected at principal amount.

5.6 Musharaka financing

Musharaka is an agreement between two or more parties to combine their assets, labour or liabilities for the purpose of making profit. Group is dealing in the following forms of Musharaka.

a) Diminishing musharaka

In diminishing musharaka based financing, the Group enters into a Musharaka based on Shirkat-ulmulk (Joint arrangement) for financing an agreed share of fixed asset (e.g., house, land, plant or machinery) with its customers and enters into yearly profit payments agreement for the utilization of the Modaraba's Musharaka share by the customer. The customer with each rental payments also purchases Modaraba's Musharaka share by paying additional amount and therefore becomes the sole owner of the subject asset at the maturity of the diminishing musharaka.

b) Musharaka financing

Group enters into financing arrangement with customers based on Shirkat-ul-aqd (contractual partnership) in customers' operating business. Under this mechanism, the customer can withdraw and return funds to the Group subject to his running musharaka financing limit during the musharaka year. The customer pays the provisional profit which is subject to final settlement based on the actual results of the business / transaction.

5.7 Financial instruments

Investments and other financial assets

a) Classification

The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

  • those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
  • those to be measured at amortized cost

The classification depends on the Group's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in the statement of profit and loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

b) Measurement

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group's business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Group classifies its debt instruments:

Amortized cost

Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognized directly in statement of profit and loss and presented in other income / (other expenses) together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit and loss.

Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVTOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses), interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to statement of profit and loss and recognized in other income / (other expenses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other income / (other expenses) and impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit and loss.

Fair value through profit or loss

Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at FVTPL is recognized in the statement of profit and loss and presented net within other income / (other expenses) in the period in which it arises.

Equity instruments

The Group subsequently measures all equity investments except for investment in subsidiary at fair value for financial instruments quoted in an active market, the fair value corresponds to a market price (level 1). For financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, the fair value is determined using valuation techniques including reference to recent arm's length market transactions or transactions involving financial instruments which are substantially the same (level 2), or discounted cash flow analysis including, to the greatest possible extent, assumptions consistent with observable market data (level 3).

Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Where the Group's management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVTOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.

Fair value through profit or loss

Changes in the fair value of equity investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other income / (other expenses) in the consolidated statement of profit and loss as applicable.

Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in statement of profit and loss as other income when the Group's right to receive payments is established.

Financial liabilities

Classification and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also included in statement of profit and loss.

i) Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortized cost and FVTOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach for measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all financial assets, except in the case of calculation of impairment provision on financial assets where the requirements of the Prudential Regulations for Group applies, it is recognized as higher of (on customer basis):

  • the provision required under the Modaraba Regulations, 2021; and
  • the provision required under IFRS 9 using the expected credit loss (ECL) model.

Loss allowance on advances and bank balances is measured at 12 months expected credit losses. Since these assets are short term in nature, therefore no credit loss is expected on these balances. The Modaraba is also not expecting a material impact on loan to employees and deposits.

ii) De-recognition

a) Financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, or it neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control over the transferred asset. Any interest in such derecognized financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

b) Financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or a part of financial liability) from its consolidated statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

iii) Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are set off and the net amount is reported in the consolidated financial statements when there is a legally enforceable right to set off and the Group intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and to settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Investment in subsidiary company 5.8

Investments in subsidiaries is initially recognized at cost. At subsequent reporting dates, recoverable amount is estimated to determine the extent of impairment loss, if any, and carrying amount of the investment adjusted accordingly.

5.9 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried in balance sheet at cost. For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances with banks in current and deposit accounts and investments with short term maturity.

5.10 Stock in trade

Stock in trade is measured at lower of cost and net realizable value as at the reporting date. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.

Net realizable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs necessary to be incurred in order to make a sale. If the net realizable value is lower than the carrying amount, a write-down is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its net realizable value. Provision is made in the consolidated financial statements for obsolete and slow-moving stock in trade based on management estimate.

5.11 Trade debtors and other receivables

Trade debtors and other receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on review of outstanding amounts as per expected credit losses model (ECL) as required by IFRS 9 as at year end date.

5.12 Statutory reserve

Statutory reserve represents profit set aside to comply with the Modaraba Regulations issued by the SECP vide S.R.O. 284(I)/2021 dated March 05, 2021. These Regulations require Modaraba which is not compliant with minimum equity requirements as provided in the regulations, shall create reserve fund to which shall credit an amount equivalent to 100% of its annual after-tax profit till such time the minimum equity requirements are complied with. During the year, the Group transferred 100% of its after-tax profit.

5.13 Certificates of musharaka

These are measured at principal amount on balance sheet date. The amount received by the Group from Certificate of Investment holders is invested in the overall business activity of the modaraba on the basis of full participation in the profit or loss of the Group.

The profit shall be shared by Certificate of Investment holders and certificate holders in accordance with the agreed ratio. Profit on certificate of investment arrangement is recognized as financial expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Profit on Musharaka finance is accounted for on the basis of the projected rate of profit. The effect of adjustments, if any, between actual rate and projected rate of profit is accounted for at the end of each quarter after determination of the actual rate.

5.14 Creditors and other liabilities

Creditors and other liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently measured at amortized cost.

5.15 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that assets 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 recognized in consolidated statement of profit and loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

Where impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to lower of revised recoverable amount or initial cost of asset less accumulated depreciation (if any) to date. Reversal of impairment loss is recognized as income.

5.16 Revenue recognition

For each sale transaction, purchase order forms a contract between the Group and a customer and the goods to be delivered under that contract are the Group's identified performance obligation, the contract contains determined and allocated transaction price. The Group satisfies a performance obligation on delivery of goods to the customer and recognizes the revenue.

Revenue murabaha is recognized as per the requirements of the Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFASs). Repayment schedule is agreed at the start. Payments are usually due over the period of contract at different dates.

Profit / return on deposits / investments is recognized on accrual basis,

Murabaha profit:

Profit on transactions under murabaha arrangements is recognized on a pro-rata basis taking into account the elapsed duration for payment of murabaha amounts payable by the customer. Profit not due for payment in the current year is deferred by accounting for unearned murabaha income with corresponding credit to deferred murabaha income which is recorded as a liability. The same is then recognized as revenue on a time proportionate basis as and when the due dates approach for payment of recoverable amounts by the customers.

  • Musharaka management fee is recognized on accrual basis.
  • Profit on musharaka financing is recognized on declaration of profit by musharaka partners on accrual basis.
  • Realized capital gains / (losses) arising on sale of investments are included in the profit and loss account on the date at which the transaction takes place.
  • Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the dividend is established.

5.17 Taxation and levy

Current

Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income for the year at the current rate of taxation after taking into account applicable tax credits, rebates and exemptions available, if any. Tax charge for the current year is determined in accordance with the prevailing laws for taxation. The charge for current tax is calculated using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The charge for the current tax also includes adjustments relating to prior years, if necessary, arising from assessments finalized during the year.

Deferred

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet liability method on all major temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the tax base used in computation of the taxable profit. Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the year when the differences reverse based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Levy

Tax charged under Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 which is not based on taxable income or any amount paid / payable in excess of the calculation based on taxable income or any minimum tax which is not adjustable against future income tax liability is classified as levy in the statement of profit and loss as these levies fall under the scope of IFRIC 12/IAS 37.

5.18 Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. All operating segments' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group Management Company's Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. In review and evaluation performance process, the business is considered as a single operating segment and the Group's business is evaluated on an overall basis other than musharaka arrangement with joint venture partner which is monitored separately.

Segment results that are reported for review and performance evaluation include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate assets, administrative expenses, and income tax assets and liabilities.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the year to acquire Property and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill.

5.19 Employee benefits

a) Defined contribution plan

The Group operates approved funded contributory provident fund scheme for all its employees. Equal monthly contributions are made both by the Group and the employees at the rate of 8.33% percent per annum of the basic salary.

b) Compensated absences

The Group accounts for the liability in respect of employees' compensated absences in the year in which they are earned.

5.20 Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency transactions are recorded using the exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into Pakistani Rupee using the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and on translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at reporting date are recognized in the profit or loss.

5.21 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present 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 obligation can be made.

5.22 Profit distributions and appropriations

Profit distributions are recognized as a liability in the consolidated financial statements in the year in which these are approved. Transfers to statutory reserve and the mandatory appropriations as may be required by law are recognized in the year to which these relate.

5.23 Certificate capital and earning per certificate

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per certificate data for its ordinary certificates. Basic earnings per certificate is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary certificate holders of the Group by the weighted average number of certificates outstanding during the year.

$22.1$ In accordance with the Modaraba Regulations 2021 (the "Regulations") issued by the SECP through S.R.O. 284(I)/2021 dated March 5, 2021, the authority to issue Certificates of Musharaka (COM) by a Modaraba will be automatically suspended if the Modaraba becomes non-compliant with any of the conditions outlined in Regulation 19 of the Regulations. However, existing Modaraba's with valid permissions to issue COM, which are non-compliant, are required to achieve compliance within one year of the effective date of these regulations provided that, during this one-year interim period, the total COM of such Modaraba will be capped at the existing level, i.e., the outstanding balance as of the date the regulations came into force.

On August 15, 2022, the SECP, via S.R.O. 1547(I)/2022, amended these regulations. These amendments extend the compliance period to three years in cases of non-compliance with the conditions outlined in Regulation 17(1) subject to certain conditions. The Modaraba, based on legal advice, understands that the compliance period for Regulation 19 is also considered as extended to 3 years given the conditions of Regulation 19 are that of Regulation 17(1).

As the extended timelines has also lapsed on August 14, 2025 and the Modaraba is non-compliant with the credit rating and minimum equity requirements as outlined in Regulations 17 and 19, the Modaraba has formally filed renewal application with the Registrar Modaraba. Based on the correspondence with the Regulator, the management is confident that the renewal application would be accepted in favor of Modaraba.

RISK MANAGEMENT 38.

38.1 Financial risk management

The Group's objective in managing risk is the creation and protection of certificate holders' value. Risk is inherent in the Group's activities, but it is managed through monitoring and controlling activities which are primarily set up based on limits established by the Group Management Company, the Group's constitutive documents and the regulations and directives of the SECP. These limits reflect the business strategy and market environment of the Group as well as the level of the risk that the Group is willing to accept. The Board of Directors of the Group Management Company has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework.

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Market risk

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the Group by failing to discharge an obligation. The risk is generally limited to outstanding amount against financing facilities and trade debts. The Group's policy is to enter into financial contracts in accordance with the risk management policies and the requirements of the Modaraba rules and regulations.

The carrying amount of these financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure at the reporting date.

Description of collateral held

The Group holds security in the form of mortgage of properties, hypothecation and pledge of goods and demand promissory notes against modaraba, murabaha, diminishing musharaka and musharaka investments.

Concentration of credit risk

The Group manages credit risk and its concentration through diversification of activities to avoid undue concentration of risks with individuals, groups or specific industry segments. For this purpose, the Group has established exposure limits for individuals / groups and industrial sectors.

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 Group believes that it is not exposed to major concentration of credit risk. The Group's bankers are of good rating. Details of the industrial sector analysis of each financing are as follows:

Modaraba's operations are restricted to Pakistan only.

Credit risk rating:

The credit quality of balances with banks that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings (If available) or to historical information about counterparty default rate:

Rating 2025 2024
Banks Long-term Short-term Agency * (Rupees) *
Habib Bank Limited AAA $A1+$ PACRA 422,674 87,257
Habib Metropolitan Bank Limited AA+ $A1+$ PACRA 10,725,612 22,099,192

Bank Islami Pakistan Limited AA- A1 PACRA 2,829 2,717
2000 L 18,930,014 47,028,134

Due to the Group's long standing business relationships with these counterparties and after giving due consideration to their strong financial standing, management does not expect non-performance by these counterparties on their obligations to the Modaraba. Accordingly, the credit risk is minimal.

(b) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due. Liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Group could be required to pay its liabilities earlier than expected or difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial liabilities as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring future cash flows on a day-to-day basis. The amount disclosed in the table are undiscounted cash flows.

Market risk c)

Market risk means that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. The objective is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The currency risk, other price risk and profit rate risk associated with the Group's business activities are stated as under:

$(i)$ Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates The Group is exposed to currency risk where transactions are conducted in foreign currency.

As at the reporting date, if Pakistani Rupee depreciated / appreciated by 1% against GBP with all other variables held constant, the Group's profit before tax would have been lower / higher by Rs. 0.038.97 million (2024: Nii) as a result of exchange gain / (loss) on translation of foreign currency denominated financial instruments.

(ii) Other price risk

Other price risk represents 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), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instrument traded in the market. There is other price risk of changes in the fair value of investment in mutual funds as a result of changes in the levels of net asset value of units held by the Group. As at June 30, 2025, had there been increase / decrease in net asset value by 1%, with all other variables held constant, the profit before tax for the year and equity would have been higher / lower by Rs. 0.23 million (2024: Rs 0.21 million) and Rs. 0.17 million (2024: Rupees 0.15 million).

(iii) Profit rate risk

Profit rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in the market yield. The Group has adopted appropriate policies to minimise its exposure to this risk. At the reporting date, the profit rate profile of the Group's significant profit bearing financial instruments was as follows:

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments

A change of 100 basis points in profit rates at the reporting date would have (decreased) / increased post tax profit for the year by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The following information summarizes the estimated effects of hypothetical increases and decreases in profit rates on cash flows from financial assets and liabilities that are subject to profit rate risk.

38.2 Recognized fair value measurements

(a) Financial assets

Fair value hierarchy

Judgments and estimates are made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognized and measured at fair value in these consolidated financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the following three levels.

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available for sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entityspecific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities.

Investment of the Group carried at fair value are categorized as follows:

There were no transfers between various levels of fair value hierarcy during the year.

Non Financial Assets $(b)$

The carrying value of all non-financial assets reflected in these consolidated financial statements are approximate their fair values. Fair value is determined on the basis of objective evidence at each reporting date.
