Chairman’s Review

Chairman’s Review

"To ensure its long-term competitiveness, the Company is taking steps towards development
of new products, quality improvement and enhancement of customer experience - that will help
improve sustainable profitability of its business in the long-term. The Company has steadily
progressed in all these areas and is inculcating a culture which is absolutely committed to the
highest level of quality standards and to enriching customer delight.”

I am pleased to present the 51st Annual Report of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2015.

Economy

The macroeconomic indicators are showing positive signs of stable growth. Inflation was recorded at a decade low level of 5.12%.
In line with the low inflation, the central bank reduced discount rate by 200 bps to 8%. This shift to expansionary monetary policy
is also due to the satisfactory position on the external front. Strong growth in remittances and receipts from multilateral sources
helped foreign exchange reserves to surpass USD 16 billion. It provided stability to Pak Rupee, which further strengthened against
the US dollar. However, it contributed to a slowdown in exports, which reduced by 3.3% mainly on account of weak global demand.
On the other hand, decline in international commodity prices, including oil, reduced the import bill. Resultantly, the current account
deficit improved to 0.7% of GDP, as compared to 1.5% during the same period of preceding year. The equity markets have similarly
shown a bullish sentiment throughout the period under review.

On the fiscal front, deficit was contained to 1.2% during the first half of the financial year 2015, against 2.2% in the same period
of preceding year. This is due to improved tax collection, restricted energy subsidies and controlled development expenditure.
Progress on the external front, supported by an improved balance of payment position, prompted Moody's Investors Service to
raise Pakistan's credit rating outlook to 'Positive' from 'Stable'.

Agriculture

The agricultural harvest largely improved in 2014-15. Bumper yields of major Kharif crops were recorded despite heavy rains
and floods in Punjab and Upper Sindh. However, the unfavorable trend in the global commodity prices translated into the suppressed
end prices for the local farmers. These factors led to constrained agricultural liquidity. However, the increase in support prices
of wheat, higher agri credit disbursements and favorable weather conditions for Rabi crops are expected to contribute positively
towards the overall agriculture GDP.

Large Scale Manufacturing (LSM)

The LSM index recorded nominal growth of 2.0% during the year. Major contribution came from Iron, Electronics, Chemicals and
Leather sectors. Continued power outages, lower commodity prices and weak external demand of textile products contained
manufacturing output. However, lower input costs of materials, easier credit conditions and borrowing costs will improve industrial
performance.

The Two Wheeler Industry

The two wheeler industry continued to face economic challenges. Low disposable income discouraged households in rural areas
from spending on consumer durable products, like motorcycles. In urban markets, political instability and poor law and order
situation outweighed the prospects of increase in demand arising from urbanization. Further, availability of credit to end consumer
remained limited. These factors translated into stagnant growth of the two wheelers' market. However, low vehicle penetration
ratios and changing customer preference towards higher engine segments suggest promising market growth.

The Company

The FY 2014-15 remained a year of extensive efficiency measures and improved profitability for the Company, underpinned by
intensified focus towards quality, productivity and cost.

Marketing Focus

Given the subdued demand in domestic markets in the year under review, your Company sold 620,329
units. However, it remained determined to bring momentum in the industry by offering products that
meet customer expectations.

The two wheeler industry in Pakistan predominantly comprises of the 70cc category. The major demand
for this segment comes from the rural areas. The slowdown in agriculture sector translated in low
Sales Volume volumes for this segment. Promotional schemes, increase in credit and other customer based activities
(in units)
were carried out to improve market sentiments.
640,148

Your Company, being the market leader, recognizes that it has the additional responsibility to maintain
630,063

the customers' reach to mobility. Accordingly, the Company intensified its efforts to leverage its internal
strengths and capitalized on the stability of Pak Rupee and decline in commodity prices. This provided
620,329

an opportunity to pass on the benefit to the customers. Accordingly, effective March 22, 2015, the price
of the market defining model CD 70 was reduced by 10 percent to Rs.63,500 and CD Dream to
Rs.67,500. This initiative was well received by the customers as the initial response has far exceeded
the Company's expectations. As a result, the Company is revising its targets for next year in an aggressive
manner.
2013 2014 2015

Sales Volume
Pridor, the Company's offering in 100cc category, is making positive progress. To generate excitement
in the market, the Company enhanced the number and scale of its field events. It reached out to
customers through relevant communication and focused promotions, which include econo-runs, free
checkup camps and test rides.

With CG 125, the Company continued to lead the premium segment. Refreshed version of the model
Sales & Gross Margin was launched which posted strong growth of 21%. To further strengthen its leadership in the 125cc
(Rs. in million) segment, the Company launched the new “CG Dream” in May 2014 with the active marketing campaign
of “Meri Dream, Meri Power”. The model found favour with young urban customers as it met the
45,772

customers' requirement for a modern and attractive product.


44,479
42,325

The Spare Parts business registered an impressive growth of 28.8%. The Company was able to enhance
sales of “Atlas Honda Genuine Parts” through innovative marketing ideas, promoting sales through
service workshops and a larger and improved product portfolio. The Company also undertook national
campaigns to educate customer about the detrimental effects of using fake parts. These efforts, along
4,674

with a wider distribution network and improved customer accessibility, helped to increase revenue to
4,225
3,681

over Rs.4.0 billion. However, the influx of illegally sourced spare parts continues to pose a major threat
to this business in the organized sector.

achieved through better treasury management and improved liquidity. As a result, the Company registered
the ever highest net profit before tax of Rs.3.2 billion. Net profit after tax increased to Rs.2.4 billion from

Chairman’s Review

Future Outlook

The economy is gradually moving towards a sustainable growth phase owing to improved foreign exchange reserves, rising
workers' remittances and controlled fiscal deficit. Going forward, the country's growth potential depends on the need to capitalize
on this recent stability. While risk to revenue collection exists amid falling oil prices, it also presents an opportunity for the
government to reduce energy subsidies and containing the budgetary deficit. However, successful fiscal consolidation requires
continued commitment to long-term reforms, elimination of subsidies and additional taxation measures to improve the tax to GDP
ratio. The advent of LNG imports seems to be a step forward to resolve the prevailing energy constraints. Such measures, coupled
with steady commodity prices and lower interest rates would also benefit the industrial index. Declining international commodity
prices will continue to put pressure on the selling prices of agricultural commodities leaving an adverse effect on liquidity. Supportive
government counter-measures are, therefore, imperative. It will help to increase the demand for two wheelers due to its role as
the main source of motorized transportation in rural areas.

The Company has once again exhibited strong performance and competitiveness. It is passing through a dynamic period where
skills, technologies and scales are being developed and getting built for this decade and the next. The Company's decisive and
systematic strategies, structures and culture are all aimed to grow shareholder value sustainably. Underpinned by the guiding
principles of “The Atlas Way”, the Company will continue to consistently outperform its previous best efforts to provide qualitative
long-term growth.

(One achieves what one is determined to achieve)

framework
Businesses face numerous uncertainties that can pose potential threats to

Business Unit
the objectives of the Company and if not addressed, may culminate in loss. Governance Risk assessment

Such uncertainties can arise both from external events as well as internal
factors within the organization. The Company analyses four types of risks,
based on the information collected from various internal and external sources, Counter measures

which are as follows:

These risks are related to the business environment including the industry and are beyond Company's
Strategic Risks control.

Commercial Risks These risks emanate from commercial substance of the organization and involve decisions which may
affect Company's position in the market.
Operational Risks These risks are related to Company's internal operations, administrative procedures and daily affairs.
Financial Risks These risks are related with financial matters including profitability, financing, liquidity and credit.

Materiality Approach for Risk Assessment


Materiality is defined by the management as a degree of measure significant to the interests of the Company and its stakeholders.
Determination of when such degree is achieved is a matter of management's best judgement. A risk is considered material if, in
management's view, its occurrence is reasonably be expected to prevent the Company from achieving its key objectives and
expectations. All identified risks are measured for their materiality impact and are marked for their relative sensitivity as shown
in Risk and Counter Strategy Matrix (RCSM). The more material the risk, the greater focus is concentrated on development and
monitoring of its counter strategies.

C) Developing counter measures


Upon identification of risk factors, counter measures are devised to mitigate their impacts. The severity of the risk will determine
the criticality of the counter measure and will accordingly set its priority for action. Risks and their related counter strategies are
monitored on continuous basis and evaluated for any changes in related impacts.

The relationship between Company's objectives, risks and counter strategies is given in the annexed RCSM.

D) Governance
The Board of Directors is responsible for approving Company's risk management policy. The Board of Directors also provides
guidelines on strategic matters and organizational objectives. The business units are responsible for managing risks at operational
level. However, the Company-level risk management is the responsibility of the Risk Management Function (RMF) which comprises
of the Treasury department. RMF reports its results / findings / observations to the Risk Management Committee. The Committee
regularly reviews the business risk profile, risk management policy, risk assessment procedures, related counter strategies and
also advice on future actions. The Committee then reports the outcomes of their reviews to the CEO. The Board of Audit Committee
also reviews and assesses the adequacy of risk management for its effectiveness in risk mitigation.

E) Opportunity analysis
The Company has adequate processes and procedures in place for identifying potential gaps in the external environment which,
if Company has adequate resource, may be exploited as opportunities to improve performance. Based on its analysis, the Company
has identified the following opportunities in current economic landscape:

Healthy agriculture cash flows will increase liquidity in rural areas


Rising foreign remittances

Review Report to the Members on Statement of Compliance


with the Code of Corporate Governance

Review Report to the Members on Statement of Compliance


with the Code of Corporate Governance
We have reviewed the enclosed Statement of Compliance with the best practices contained in the Code of Corporate Governance
(the Code) prepared by the Board of Directors of Atlas Honda Limited (the Company) for the year ended March 31, 2015 to comply
with the Code contained in regulation No.5.19 of the Rule Book of Karachi Stock Exchange Limited and regulation No.35 of Chapter
XI of the Listing Regulations of the Lahore Stock Exchange where the Company is listed.

The responsibility for compliance with the Code is that of the Board of Directors of the Company. Our responsibility is to review, to
the extent where such compliance can be objectively verified, whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Company's
compliance with the provisions of the Code and report if it does not and to highlight any non-compliance with the requirements of
the Code. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Company's personnel and review of various documents prepared by the
Company to comply with the Code.

As a part of our audit of 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
Company's corporate governance procedures and risks.

The Code requires the 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 of its related party transactions distinguishing between transactions carried
out on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions and transactions which are not executed at arm's length
price and recording proper justification for using such alternate pricing mechanism. 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. We have not carried out any procedures to determine whether the related party transactions were undertaken
at arm's length price or not.

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 Company's compliance, in all material respects, with the best practices contained in the Code as applicable
to the Company for the year ended March 31, 2015.

2. Basis of Preparation

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the approved accounting standards as applicable in
Pakistan. Approved accounting standards comprise of such International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board and Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of Pakistan as are notified under the Companies Ordinance, 1984, provisions of and directives issued
under the Companies Ordinance, 1984. In case requirements differ, the provisions or directives of the Companies Ordinance,
1984 shall prevail.

2.2 Basis of measurement

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments,
which are carried at their fair values and staff retirement benefit - gratuity which is carried at present value of defined benefit
obligation net of fair value of plan assets.

2.3 Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Pakistan Rupees, which is the functional currency of the Company and figures
are rounded off to the nearest thousand of Rupees.

2.4 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards, as applicable in Pakistan, requires
management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affects the application of policies and the reported amount
of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

Estimates and judgements are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and are continually evaluated. The Company makes estimates and
assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual
results. However, such differences are estimated to be insignificant and hence will not affect the true and fair presentation of
the financial statements. The assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised
in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Judgements made by management in
application of the approved accounting standards that have significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with
a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are discussed in respective policy note. The areas where various
assumptions and estimates are significant to the Company's financial statements or where judgements were exercised in
application of accounting policies are as follows:

(i) Estimate of useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets [notes 4.1 and 4.2];

(ii) Provision for slow moving inventories [notes 4.9 and 4.10];

(iii) Estimates of payables and receivables in respect of staff retirement benefit schemes [notes 4.15 and 22.7]; and

(iv) Provision for taxation [note 4.21].

3. New and Amended St andards and Interpretations

3.1 Standards, amendments to approved accounting standards and interpretations effective in current year

New and amended standards and interpretations mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning April 1, 2014:

52 Annual Report 2015


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

(a) IAS 32 (Amendments), 'Financial instruments: presentation'. These amendments update the application guidance in IAS 32,
'Financial instruments: presentations', to clarify some of the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
on the balance sheet date. The application of these amendments has no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

(b) IAS 36 (Amendment), 'Impairment of assets'. This amendment addresses the disclosure of information about the recoverable
amount of impaired assets if that amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal. The application of these amendments
has no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

The other new standards, amendments to approved accounting standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the
financial year beginning on April 1, 2014 are considered not to be relevant or to have any significant effect on the Company's
financial reporting and operations.

3.2 Standards, amendments to approved accounting standards and interpretations that are not yet effective and have
not been early adopted by the Company

The following new standards and amendments to approved accounting standards are not effective for the financial year
beginning on April 1, 2014 and have not been early adopted by the Company:

(a) IFRS 13 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015). The standard aims
to improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition of fair value and a single source of fair value
measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The requirements do not extend the use of fair value
accounting but provide guidance on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards
within IFRSs. The Company is yet to assess the full impact of the standard, however, initial indication is that it is unlikely that
standard will have any significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

(b) Annual improvements 2012 applicable for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. These amendments include
changes from the 2010-12 cycle of the annual improvements project, that affect seven standards: IFRS 2, ‘Share-based
payment’, IFRS 3, ‘Business Combinations’, IFRS 8, ‘Operating segments’, IFRS 13, ‘Fair value measurement’, IAS 16,
‘Property, plant and equipment’, IAS 24 'Related Party Disclosures' and IAS 38, ‘Intangible assets’. The Company does not
expect to have a material impact on its financial statements due to application of these amendments.

(c) Annual improvements 2013 applicable for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. These amendments include
changes from the 2011-2013 cycle of annual improvements project that affect four standards: IFRS 1, 'First time adoption of
International Financial Reporting Standards', IFRS 3, 'Business combinations', IFRS 13, 'Fair value measurement' and IAS
40, 'Investment property'. The Company does not expect to have a material impact on its financial statements due to application
of these amendments.

(d) Annual improvements 2014 applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. These amendments include
changes from the 2012-2014 cycle of annual improvements project that affect four standards: IFRS 5, 'Non current assets
held for sale and discontinued operations', IFRS 7 ’Financial instruments: disclosures’, IAS 19 'Employee benefits', and IAS
34, 'Interim financial reporting'. The Company does not expect to have a material impact on its financial statements due to
application of these amendments.

(e) IAS 19 (Amendment), 'Employee benefits', effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. The amendment
applies to contributions from employees or third parties to defined benefit plans and clarifies the treatment of such contributions.
The amendment distinguishes between contributions that are linked to service only in the period in which they arise and those
linked to service in more than one period. The objective of the amendment is to simplify the accounting for contributions that
are independent of the number of years of employee service, for example employee contributions that are calculated according
to a fixed percentage of salary. Entities with plans that require contributions that vary with service will be required to recognise
the benefit of those contributions over employee's working lives. The Company does not expect to have a material impact
on its financial statements.

There are number of other standards, amendments and interpretations to the approved accounting standards that are not
yet effective and are also not relevant to the Company and therefore, have not been presented here.

4. Significant Accounting Policies

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

Atlas Honda Limited 53


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

4.1 Property, plant and equipment

Owned assets

The Company has adopted cost model for its property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and equipment except for freehold
land and capital work-in-progress are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Freehold land
is stated at cost less impairment loss, if any. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to acquisition of the asset,
including any borrowing cost (note 4.24). The cost of a self constructed asset includes cost of materials, labour and other
overheads that are directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, costs of dismantling
/ removing the asset and restoring the site on which it is located. Items of property, plant and equipment individually costing
Rs.25,000 or less are charged to the profit and loss account as and when purchased.

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost accumulated upto the balance sheet date less accumulated impairment loss, if any.
Capital work-in-progress is recognised as an operating fixed asset when it is made available for its intended use.

Where major components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for in
the books of account as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

Subsequent costs including major renewals and improvements are included in the carrying amount of the asset or are
recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with
the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced
part is derecognised at the time of replacement. Normal repair and maintenance and day-to-day servicing are charged to the
profit and loss account as and when incurred.

Depreciation is charged to the profit and loss account using reducing balance method except for dies and jigs, office equipment,
computers and accessories, furniture and fixtures and service equipment, without considering extra shifts. Depreciation on
dies and jigs, office equipment, computers and accessories, furniture and fixtures and service equipment is charged to the
profit and loss account using straight line method. Depreciation on additions is charged from the month in which the asset is
available for use while no depreciation is charged for the month in which the asset is disposed-off.

The depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values of items of property, plant and equipment are reviewed periodically
and altered if circumstances or expectations have changed significantly. Any change or adjustment in depreciation method,
useful lives and residual values is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting policies, changes
in accounting estimates and errors’ and is applied prospectively in the financial statements by adjusting the depreciation
charge for the period in which the amendment or change has been made and for future periods.

Disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised when significant risk and rewards, incidental to the ownership
of that asset, have been transferred to the buyer. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the carrying
amount of that asset with the realised sales proceeds and are recognised within 'Other income / other operating expenses'
in the profit and loss account.

Leased assets

Lease that substantially transfers all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an asset to the Company is classified
as finance lease. Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and
present value of minimum lease payments. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance
with the accounting policy applicable for owned assets.

4.2 Intangible assets

These are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any and represent cost of software licenses,
SAP implementation & support cost and license fee of certain components that are being manufactured by the Company
under technology transfer arrangements.

Costs associated with maintaining these assets are charged to the profit and loss account as and when incurred, however,
costs that are directly attributable to the identifiable asset and have probable economic benefits exceeding one year, are
recognised as intangible asset. Direct costs include purchase cost of the asset, salaries and other service benefits of staff
deployed towards development of the asset and other related overheads. Expenditure incurred in respect of design, construction
and testing of an intangible asset are also added to the carrying amount of that asset.

Expenditure which enhances or extends the performance of the asset beyond its original specifications is recognised as a
capital improvement and added to the original cost of the asset.

All intangible assets are estimated to have definite useful lives and are amortised from the month the software / license is
acquired, made available for use or extended support cost is incurred, using the straight line method over a period of 2 to 5
years.

Notes to the Financial Statements

4.3 Impairment of non financial assets

Non-financial assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify circumstances indicating occurrence of impairment
loss or reversal of pervious impairment losses, if any. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less cost to
sell and value in use. Reversal of impairment loss is restricted to the original cost of the asset.

4.4 Investments in equity instruments of an Associate

Investment in an Associate is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment
is initially recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the Company's share of profit
or loss of the Investee after the date of acquisition.

The Company’s share of post acquisition profit or loss is recognised in the profit and loss account, and its share of post
acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income with the corresponding
adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment. When the Company's share of losses in an Associate equals or exceeds
its interest in the Associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless
it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the Associate.

The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the Associate
is impaired. If this is the case, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable
amount of the Associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount adjacent to share of profit / loss of an Associate
in the profit and loss account.

4.5 Financial assets

4.5.1 Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables,
held to maturity and available-for-sale. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired.
Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this
category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in short term. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading
unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets.

(b) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active
market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period,
in which case, these are classified as non-current assets.

(c) Held to maturity financial assets

Held to maturity financial assets are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity
with a positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

(d) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the
other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose-
off it within 12 months of the end of the reporting date.

4.5.2 Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade-date – the date on which the Company commits
to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets
not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised
at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the profit and loss account. Financial assets are derecognised when the
rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred
substantially all risks and rewards of the ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held to maturity investments are subsequently
carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are
presented in the profit and loss account within 'Other income / other operating expenses' in the period in which they arise.
Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the profit and loss account as part
of 'Other income' when the Company's right to receive payments is established.

Atlas Honda Limited 55


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in 'Other
comprehensive income'.

When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in
equity are included in the profit and loss account as 'Gains / losses from investment securities'.

Interest on available-for-sale securities and held to maturity investments is calculated using the effective interest method is
recognised in the profit and loss account as part of 'Other income'. Dividend income from available-for-sale equity instruments
are recognised in the profit and loss account as part of 'Other income' when the Company's right to receive payments is
established.

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a
group of financial assets is impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss -
measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial
asset previously recognised in profit or loss - is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss account. Impairment
losses recognised in profit and loss account on equity instruments are not reversed through the profit and loss account.
Impairment testing of other receivables is described in note 4.11.

4.6 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognised at the time when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less directly attributable transactions costs, if any, and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired. Where an existing
financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms or the terms of an existing liability
are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of original liability and recognition
of a new liability and the difference in respective carrying amounts is recognised in the profit and loss account.

4.7 Off setting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable
right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the
liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the
normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counter party.

4.8 Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured
at their fair values. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as
a hedging instrument, if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Company designates certain derivatives as either fair
value hedge or cash flow hedge.

(a) Fair value hedge

Fair value hedge represents a hedge of the fair value of a recognised asset or liability or a firm commitment. Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is designated and qualify as fair value hedge is recorded in the profit and loss account, together
with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk. The carrying value
of the hedged item is adjusted accordingly.

(b) Cash flow hedge

Cash flow hedge represents a hedge of a highly probable forecast transaction. The effective portion of changes in the fair
value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The
gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account. Amounts accumulated
in equity are reclassified to the profit and loss account in the periods when the hedged item affects profit and loss account.

4.9 Stores, spares and loose tools

Stores, spares and loose tools are stated at lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventory is based on weighted
average cost. Items-in-transit are stated at cost accumulated upto the balance sheet date. The Company reviews the carrying
amounts of stores, spares and loose tools on an on-going basis and provision is made for obsolescence if there is any change
in usage pattern and physical form. Impairment is also made for slow moving items.

56 Annual Report 2015


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

4.10 Stock-in-trade

Stock-in-trade are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of raw materials and components represent invoice
values plus other charges incurred thereon. Cost of inventory is based on weighted average cost. Cost in relation to work-
in-process and finished goods represent direct cost of raw materials, wages and appropriate manufacturing overheads. Goods
in transit are valued at cost accumulated upto the balance sheet date.

The Company reviews the carrying amount of stock-in-trade on an on-going basis and as appropriate, inventory is written
down to its net realisable value or provision is made for obsolescence if there is any change in usage pattern and physical
form of related inventory.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs necessary to be incurred in
order to make the sale.

4.11 Trade debts and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at original invoice amount which is the fair value of consideration to be
received in future and subsequently measured at cost as reduced by appropriate provision for receivables considered to be
doubtful. A provision is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts
due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of provision is charged to profit and loss. Trade and other
receivables considered irrecoverable are written-off.

Exchange gains and losses arising in respect of trade and other receivables in foreign currency are added to the carrying
amount of the receivables.

4.12 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheet at cost. For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash
equivalents represent balances with banks.

4.13 Non current assets held for sale

Non current assets are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a
sale transaction rather than continuing use and sale is considered highly probable. They are stated at the lower of carrying
amount and fair value less cost to sell.

4.14 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recognised at their face value.

4.15 Retirement and other service benefit obligations

4.15.1 Defined contribution plans

A defined contribution plan is a post employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contribution into a separate
entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligation for contribution to a defined contribution
plan is recognised as an employee service benefit expense in the profit and loss account when it is due.

The Company operates defined contribution plans for its permanent employees excluding ex-patriates, through either one
of the following ways:

• a recognised provident fund; or

• voluntary pension schemes managed by Atlas Asset Management Limited, a related party, under the Voluntary Pension
System Rules, 2005, viz, Atlas Pension Fund and Atlas Pension Islamic Fund.

All the newly appointed employees are offered voluntary pension scheme only. However, those employees who are provident
fund trust members, have the option to opt for either of two above-mentioned defined contribution plans.

Equal monthly contributions at the rate of 11% of the basic salary are made to the fund / scheme both by the Company and
the employees. The fund is a separate legal entity and its assets are being held separately under the control of its Trustees.

4.15.2 Defined benefit plans

Defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than the defined contribution plan. Defined benefit plans define
an amount of gratuity that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age
and years of service. The liability recognised in the balance sheet is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the
end of the reporting period less the fair value of the plan assets.

Atlas Honda Limited 57


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

The Company has established separate funded gratuity schemes for its management and non-management staff who completes
qualifying period of service. Contributions under the schemes are made on the basis of actuarial valuation using Projected
Unit Credit Method, related details of which are given in note 22.7 to the financial statements.

The amount arising as a result of remeasurements are recognised in the balance sheet immediately, with a charge or credit
to other comprehensive income in the periods in which they occur. Past-service cost are recognised immediately in profit and
loss account.

4.15.3 Compensated absences

Employees’ entitlement to annual leaves is recognised when they accrue to the employees. A provision is made for the
estimated liability for annual leaves as a result of services rendered by employees upto the balance sheet date.

4.16 Trade and other payables

Liabilities for trade and other payables are carried at their amortised cost, which approximate fair value of the consideration
to be paid in future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Company.

4.17 Obligation under finance lease

Total outstanding obligation under the lease arrangements less finance cost attributable to future periods is presented as
liability. Finance cost under the lease arrangements is distributed over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic
rate of finance cost on the balance of principal liability outstanding at the end of each period.

4.18 Operating leases / Ijarah

Operating leases / Ijarah in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor / Muj’ir
(lessor) are classified as operating leases / Ijarah. Payments made during the year are charged to the profit and loss account
on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease / Ijarah.

4.19 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events and it
is probable that outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best
estimate.

4.20 Warranty

The Company recognises the estimated liability to repair or replace damaged parts of products still under warranty at the
balance sheet date on the basis of historical claim information. The Company offers 3 years’ warranty on all engine spare
parts and six months warranty on all other spare parts of its motorcycles. The ratio of warranty claims filed during the year
to previous year's sales is taken into account for determining the estimated liability.

4.21 Taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit and loss account, except to
the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current

The current tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary, to provision for tax made in the previous
years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years.

Deferred

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet
date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

58 Annual Report 2015


Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised
only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can
be utilised.

4.22 Foreign currency transactions and translation

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of
transactions. The closing balance of non-monitory items is included at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction
and monetary items are translated using the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains
and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit and loss account.

4.23 Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of
revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is
reduced for allowances such as taxes, duties, commission, sales returns and discounts. Revenue from different sources is
recognised on the following basis:

- Revenue from sales of motorcycles and spare parts is recognised when goods are dispatched and invoiced to customers.

- Interest income on deposits with banks and other financial assets is recognised on accrual basis.

- Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

4.24 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred except where such costs are directly
attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset in which case such costs are capitalised as part
of the cost of that asset.

4.25 Research and development costs

Research and development costs are recognised in profit and loss account as and when incurred.

4.26 Earnings per share

The Company presents earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss
attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during
the period.

4.27 Segment reporting

Segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes by the Chief Operating
Decision Maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments. On the
basis of its internal reporting structure, the Company considers itself to be a single reportable segment.

4.28 Dividend and appropriation to reserves

Dividend and appropriation to reserves are recognised in the financial statements in the period in which these are approved.

22.7.15Sensitivity analysis for actuarial assumptions

The sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to changes in principal assumptions is:

Impact on Defined Benefit Obligation


Change in Increase in Decrease in
assumptions assumptions assumptions
---------- (Rupees in ’000) ----------
Discount rate 1.00% 301,534 351,675
Future salary increase 1.00% 353,297 299,733
Withdrawal rates : light 323,862
Withdrawal rates : heavy 326,079

The sensitivity analysis are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constants. In practice,
this is unlikely to occur, and change in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the
defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of defined benefit obligation
calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the
gratuity liability recognised within the balance sheet.

The method and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the previous period.

22.7.16 The weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation for management and non-management funds is 7.89 years and
6.30 years respectively.

37. Financial Risk Management

37.1 Financial risk factors

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

- market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk);

- credit risk; and

- liquidity risk.

The Company's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk
management framework. The Board is also responsible for developing and monitoring the Company's risk management policies.

The Company’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise
potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance. Risk management is carried out by a treasury department
under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The treasury department identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks.
The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such
as currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments and investment of
excess liquidity.

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect
the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to
manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of a financial instrument shall fluctuate because of
changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures,
primarily with respect to the Japanese Yen and the US Dollar. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions
and recognised assets and liabilities. The Company's exposure to foreign currency risk at the reporting date is as follows:

2015 2014
Japanese US Japanese US
Yen Dollar Yen Dollar
-------------------- (Amounts in ’000) ----------------------

Trade debts - 75 - 76
Trade and other payables (679,530) (34) (578,800) (98)

Net balance sheet exposure (679,530) 41 (578,800) (22)

The following significant exchange rates have been applied:

2015 2014 2015 2014


Average rate Balance sheet date rate
-------------------- (Rupees) ----------------------

Pakistani Rupee to Japanese Yen 0.91 1.03 0.85 0.96


Pakistani Rupee to U.S. Dollar 100.37 103.26 102.20 98.70

At March 31, 2015, if the Pakistani Rupee had strengthened / weakened by 5% against Japanese Yen and U.S. Dollar with all
other variables held constant, profit before taxation for the year would have been higher / (lower) by the amount shown below
mainly as a result of net foreign exchange gain / (loss) on translation of foreign denominated financial assets and liabilities.

Pakistani Rupee to U.S. Dollar (210) 109

28,670 27,891

The sensitivity analysis prepared is not necessarily indicative of the effects on profit for the year and assets / liabilities of the
Company.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk represents the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of
change in market interest rates.

The Company's interest rate risk arises from balances with banks in savings deposit accounts and term deposit receipts.
Deposits in bank savings accounts held at variable interest rate expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk and term
deposit receipts issued by the banks at fixed interest rates give rise to fair value interest rate risk. Significant interest rate
risk exposures are primarily managed by a suitable mix of deposits. As at March 31, 2015, the Company's interest bearing
financial assets amounted to Rs.3,123,421 thousand (2014: Rs.2,634,784 thousand).

At March 31, 2015, if the interest rate on the Company's deposits had been higher / lower by 1% with all other variables held
constant, profit before tax for the year would have been higher / (lower) by Rs.10,234 thousand (2014: Rs.10,348 thousand)
mainly as a result of higher / (lower) interest income.

Price risk

Price risk represents the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes
in market prices (other than those arising from currency risk or interest rate risk), whether those changes are caused by factors
specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors effecting all similar financial instruments traded in the
market.

The Company is exposed to price risk because of investments in mutual fund securities amounting to Rs.4,119,696 thousand
(2014: Rs.3,691,241 thousand) as changes in Net Asset Value (NAV) of mutual funds affect the Company.

At March 31, 2015, if fair value (NAV) had been 5% higher / lower with all other variables held constant profit before tax for
the year would have higher / (lower) by Rs.205,985 thousand (2014: Rs.184,562 thousand).

The sensitivity analysis prepared is not necessarily indicative of the effects on profit / investments of the Company.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognised at the balance sheet date if counter parties failed completely
to perform as contracted. Credit risk arises from deposits with banks & financial institutions, loans & advances, deposits, trade
debts, investments, accrued mark-up / interest and other receivables.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit exposure. The financial assets exposed to credit risk
amounted to Rs.8,322,138 thousand (2014: Rs.7,137,218 thousand) as at March 31, 2015. Out of the total financial assets
credit risk is concentrated in trade debts, investments in mutual fund securities and deposits with banks as they constitute
99% (2014: 99%) of the total financial assets.

Significant part of sales of the Company occurs against advance payments, therefore, trade debts mainly arise from export
sales and local sales that were made to Government and Defence Institutions. The Company believes that it is not exposed
to any specific credit risk in respect of those trade debts.

The credit risk on liquid funds maintained with banks and investments in mutual fund securities is limited as such banks
and funds enjoy reasonably high credit rating. Accordingly, management does not expect any counter party to fail in meeting
their obligations.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk reflects the Company's inability in raising funds to meet commitments. The Company manages liquidity risk by
maintaining sufficient cash and balances with banks. As at March 31, 2015 there is no maturity mismatch between financial
assets and liabilities that exposes the Company to liquidity risk.

37.2 Capital management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in
order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to
reduce the cost of capital. The capital structure of the Company is equity based with no financing through borrowings.
