The Company has incurred loss after tax of Rs 816 million as against a profit of Rs 465 million earned during the previous year. The decrease in profitability in current year is because of Negotiated Settlement Agreement as detailed in Directors' Report of the Company and annexed financial statements, resulting in early termination of Company's Power Purchase Agreement with effect from October 01, 2024.

Accordingly, the Board has completed its annual self-evaluation for the year 2025 and I am pleased to report that the overall performance benchmarked on the basis of set criteria remained satisfactory.

Chairman

Lahore: March 31, 2026





The Directors are pleased to present the Annual Report and the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 together with the auditors' report thereon.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS AND STRATEGIC REPOSITIONING

The early termination of the Company's Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), effective 01 October 2024, resulted in the cessation of the Company's primary revenue stream.

Following the termination of the PPA, the Board undertook a comprehensive review of the Company's strategic direction to safeguard shareholder value and ensure sustainable utilization of its available financial resources.

Keeping in view the above factors, the Board of Directors of the Company in their meeting held on March 31, 2026 has formally approved an Alternate Business Plan for the Company involving the disposal

/ sale of plant and machinery, sizeable part of buildings, stores, spare parts and other consumables and other assets ("the Assets") of the Company located at power plant site, Mehmood Kot, Muzaffargarh, Punjab, subject to the completion of necessary corporate, regulatory and legal formalities.

In accordance with the provisions of Section 183(3)(a) of the Companies Act, 2017, the approval of members of the Company is being sought in forthcoming Annual General Meeting for such sale / disposal of the Assets.

The Company has Rupees 9,198.822 million surplus funds available as on 31 December 2025 which are invested in mutual funds and cash and banks. The sale of the Assets as stated above is expected to further generate Rs. 3,161 million. The Board of Directors of the Company in their meeting held on 18 December 2025 has approved the Company's acquisition, through nomination by Nishat Hotels and Properties Limited, of up to 4.41% of the paid-up ordinary share capital of Rafhan Maize Products Company Limited ("the acquiree company") at a price of PKR 9,800 per share, as part of a broader acquisition with its affiliates to acquire a total of up to 75.10% of paid-up ordinary share capital of the acquiree company through share purchase agreements and 3.23% of paid-up ordinary share capital of the acquiree company through public offer under the Listed Companies (Substantial Acquisition of Voting Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2017.

Hence, Alternate Business Plan, approved and recommended by the Board of Directors of the Company encompass change in principal line of business, change in name of the Company, disposal of the Assets and pursuing the principal line of business of making investments in shares / securities. The Board has initiated a strategic repositioning of the Company from an asset-intensive power generation business to a capital allocation and investment-focused platform.

DIRECTORS' REPORT



As part of this transition, the Company intends to monetise legacy operating assets and redeploy capital into opportunities capable of generating sustainable returns. The Company's strong financial position, disciplined governance, and experienced management team provide a solid foundation for this transition.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE

The Board continues to actively monitor risks associated with the transition, including regulatory developments, execution risks relating to potential investments, and market-related factors. Appropriate governance and oversight mechanisms are in place to ensure prudent decision-making and protection of shareholder interests.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The Board views the Company's transformation as a proactive response. Going forward, the Company is expected to remain focused on execution of the Alternate Business Plan, enhancing shareholders' value and maintaining financial strength.

PROPOSED STRATEGIC INVESTMENT - RAFHAN MAIZE PRODUCTS COMPANY LIMITED

In view of the delayed / uncertain near-term commercialization through CTBCM and the need to enhance predictability of returns and preserve shareholder value, the Board and management have evaluated alternate avenues of income generation (as contemplated in the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024).

As stated above, the Company, as part of a consortium of Nishat Group entities, is in the process of acquiring equity stake in Rafhan Maize Products Company Limited, a listed company engaged in the business of processing of maize as the basis raw material to manufacture and sell a number of industrial products, like industrial starches, liquid glucose, dextrose, dextrin and gluten meals.

The transaction is being undertaken in accordance with the Securities Act, 2015 and the Listed Companies (Substantial Acquisition of Voting Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2017, and represents a strategic investment opportunity aligned with the Company's long-term capital allocation framework.

Management considers the proposed investment attractive for the following reasons:

Rafhan Maize Products Company Limited (RMPL) specializes in corn wet-milling, producing a diverse portfolio of starches and sweeteners. These products serve a wide array of sectors, including textiles, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and livestock. By maintaining such a broad demand base, RMPL achieve greater operational resilience across economic cycles, mitigating the risks typically associated with single-buyer contract models.

As a mature operating business with a diversified customer base and value-added product portfolio, the proposed investment is expected to provide a combination of stable dividend income potential and long-term capital appreciation.

The Company already holds surplus funds of approximately Rs. 9,198.822 million as on December 31, 2025. Deploying a portion of these surplus funds, into a strategic investment is intended to enhance returns compared with passive placements, while maintaining adequate liquidity to meet operating expenditures and obligations.

GOING CONCERN AND FINANCIAL RESILIENCE

Based on the Company's available financial resources and ongoing strategic initiatives, the Board is satisfied that the Company will continue to meet its obligations as they fall due and has therefore adopted the going concern

basis in preparing these financial statements.

FINANCE AND SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

Due to termination of PPA in Year 2024, the Company had no operating revenues, during the current year. For comparative year, the Company reported total sales revenue of Rupees 14.239 billion and operating costs were Rupees 10.691 billion, resulting in gross profit of Rupees 3.548 billion). During the year, the Company incurred loss after tax of Rupees 816 million resulting in loss per share of Rupees 2.19, as compared to a profit after tax of Rupees 465 million and earnings per share of Rupees 1.22 last year.

The Company remains in a sound financial position and has sufficient liquidity and reserves to meet its plant preservation expenditures and discharge its liabilities for the foreseeable future. As on December 31, 2025, the Company's investments in Mutual Funds and cash and banks stand at Rs. 9,199 million, which are primarily held to meet day to day expenditure and keeping in view the Alternate Business Plan of the Company as elaborated in preceding paragraphs.

The Company has taken several cost reduction measures, including but not limited to rationalization of workers and employees through Voluntary Severance Scheme (VSS) and reduction / optimization of plant maintenance costs, to mitigate the financial impacts arising due to termination of the Agreements.

BUY BACK OF SHARES:

During the year, the Company undertook buy-back of its own shares in accordance with Section 88 of the Companies Act, 2017 and the Listed Companies (Buy-Back of Shares) Regulations, 2019. The Board of Directors in its meeting held on October 16, 2025 approved the proposal of buy-back of up to 100,000,000 ordinary shares of face value Rs. 10 each, representing 26.33% of the total outstanding shares, with the purpose of cancellation of shares. Proposal was subsequently authorized by the members through a special resolution passed in the Extraordinary General Meeting held on November 20, 2025.

Pursuant to the approval, the Company announced the buy-back on November 20, 2025 and commenced purchases through Pakistan Stock Exchange on November 28, 2025. The Company completed the buy-back during December 2025 and purchased an aggregate of 100,000,000 ordinary shares at prevailing market prices for cancellation.

The purchased shares were cancelled upon confirmation from Central Depository Company, resulting in a reduction of the Company's paid-up share capital from 379,838,732 ordinary shares to 279,838,732 ordinary shares of Rs. 10 each.

The transaction was funded from distributable reserves and has been accounted for as a reduction in equity.

The buy-back has been accounted for as an equity transaction in accordance with IAS 32 - Financial Instruments

i.e. the premium paid on buy-back of shares including directly attributable costs has been recognized as a deduction from distributable reserves and no gain or loss has been recognized in profit or loss on cancellation of shares.

diluted earnings per share for the year ended 31 December 2025 in accordance with IAS 33 (Earnings per Share). Further details are disclosed in Note 27.

The buy-back had the following financial implications for the Company:

  1. The cancellation of shares reduced the issued and paid-up capital, thereby optimizing the Company's capital structure and aligning it with the current scale of operations.

  2. The Company utilized approximately PKR 2.47 billion (inclusive of transaction costs) for the purchase of shares, which was funded from distributable profits/reserves.

  3. As a result of the reduction in the number of outstanding shares:

    1. Earnings per share (EPS) is expected to improve due to lower weighted average shares outstanding.

    2. Net assets per share / book value per share is expected to increase, enhancing shareholder value

  4. The buy-back did not affect the Company's operational capability or its ability to meet liabilities, as the transaction was executed from available reserves in compliance with regulatory requirements.

  5. The transaction provided liquidity to shareholders wishing to exit while simultaneously improving capital efficiency for continuing shareholders.
