The Directors of your company are pleased to present their Half Yearly un-audited Accounts for the half year ended December 31, 2024. The accounts have been reviewed by the auditors of the company M/s. Mazars M.F. & Co., (Chartered Accountants).

During the current quarter, the economic environment has shown some stability, largely due to government policies. The policy rate drastically comes down to 13% shows government commitment towards industrial reform, but High Cost of Doing Business: Despite lower interest rates, businesses continued to struggle with high electricity prices, increased taxation, and regulatory hurdles. Uncertainty in Government Policies: Fiscal policies, taxation changes, and upcoming negotiations with the IMF and other nancial institutions inuenced business condence.

Domestically, the government has introduced its 5-Year Economic Transformation Plan. which focuses on structural economic reforms and inclusive growth strategies. This plan is expected to inuence the overall business climate in the coming years. However, key challenges such as scal adjustments, taxation policies, and external debt obligations remain signicant factors impacting business strategies.

Despite these uncertainties, your company remains committed to closely monitoring economic trends and adapting its strategies accordingly. Depending on future economic developments, the company will decide whether to pursue expansion or maintain a cautious approach to sustain operational stability.

The Board of Directors extends its gratitude to all stakeholders, employees, shareholders, bankers, and partners for their continued trust and support. Their commitment remains essential in navigating economic uncertainties and market challenges.

HAFIZ LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Hafiz Limited

Report on review of Interim Financial Statements

IntroducƟon

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim statement of financial posiƟon of Hafiz Limited (the "Company") as at December 31, 2024 and the related condensed interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed interim statement of changes in equity and condensed interim statement of cash flows, and notes to the condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period then ended (here-in-aŌer referred to as the "interim financial statements"). Management is responsible for the prepara- Ɵon and presentaƟon of these interim financial statements in accordance with accounƟng and reporƟng standards as applicable in Pakistan for interim financial reporƟng. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim financial statements based on our review.

The figures of the condensed interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the quarters ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 have not been reviewed, as we are required to review only the cumulaƟve figures for the half year ended December 31, 2024.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with InternaƟonal Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial InformaƟon Performed by the Independent Auditor of the EnƟty". A review of interim financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounƟng maƩers, and applying analyƟcal and other review procedures. A review is substanƟally less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with InternaƟonal Standards on AudiƟng and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant maƩers that might be idenƟ- fied in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our aƩenƟon that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounƟng and reporƟng standards as applicable in Pakistan for interim financial reporƟng.

The engagement partner on the review resulƟng in this independent auditor's review report is Muhammad Saqlain Siddiqui.
