Review Report by the Chairman on Board's overall Performance u/s 192 of the Companies Act 2017:
Dear Shareholders,
As required under the Listed Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019 an annual evaluation of the Board of Directors of BRR Guardian Limited is carried out. The purpose of this evaluation is to ensure that the Board's overall performance and effectiveness are measured and benchmarked against expectations in the context of the objectives set for the Company.
I am delighted to present an overview of BRR Guardian Limited's performance for the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2025. Pakistan's macroeconomic landscape showed signs of modest recovery with fiscal consolidation, declining inflationary pressures, and improving reserves boosting investor confidence that resulted in 2.7% GDP growth for the fiscal year 2024-25 representing a rebound from the previous year's contraction. A major achievement was the surplus in the current account balance for the first time in years, driven by record growth in remittances. However, the growth was below the targeted 3.6% for the year and highlights ongoing structural challenges that require further attention. Key challenges persist such as weak demand, tariffs, the need for industrial upgrading, human capital investment and export diversification remain significant. Despite these hurdles, the Pakistan Stock Exchange has delivered strong returns in FY25, driven by improved economic indicators and renewed investor confidence. The KSE-100 index closed at 125,627 at the end of FY25, a significant increase from 78,445 at the end of FY24. We expect the record run on the PSX to continue.
The company record strong financial results for the year ended June 30, 2025. Profit before taxation and levy grew by 45% times to PKR 784.343 million, while net profit grew by 45% times to PKR 648.636 million. Earnings per share (EPS) saw a substantial rise to PKR 6.83 from PKR 4.72 in the previous year, highlighting the company's focus on growth and shareholder value creation.
The Board is fully aware of its responsibilities concerning the Corporate and Financial Reporting Framework and recognizes its strategic importance in achieving the Company's primary goals. We are dedicated to enhancing returns for our shareholders and other stakeholders, continuing to provide high-quality products and services to our esteemed customers.
Sincerely,
HAMIDA DAWOOD
