Business Review
Domestic sales of PVC during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were the highest ever for any quarter at 35,500
tons as compared to 30,200 tons sold during same period last year. The increase in sales volumes was driven by
higher usage in public sector projects and agricultural sector. In addition to this, rising price trend of PVC contributed
to increased buying by customers. Domestic sales of PVC during first six months were 64,400 tons as compared
to 55,600 tons during the same period in 2008. Production for the quarter was 34,600 tons taking total production
for six months to 60,900 tons versus 49,800 tons in 1H08.
Global PVC price rose to reflect higher feedstock prices driven by hike in oil prices. Availability of VCM during the
quarter remained tight as key manufacturers underwent planned shutdowns with no significant reduction in demand
resulting in a squeeze in the PVC-VCM margin to US$ 146 per ton in 2Q09 as compared to US$ 273 per ton in
the same period last year.
The Company successfully launched sale of Caustic soda and Sodium hypochlorite to domestic customers at the
end of second quarter. During this period, the Company sold 760 tons and 464 tons of Caustic soda and Sodium
hypochlorite respectively. Market has been quite receptive and the Company is confident that it will be able to
capture a sizeable share of the caustic soda market due to its high quality product, competitive pricing, dedicated
distribution fleet and commitment to a high level of customer service.
Revenue during the first six months was Rs. 4,945 million, an increase of 13% over same period 2008. During
second quarter, the Company earned a profit after tax of Rs. 82 million. Profit after tax for six months is Rs. 7 million
as compared to Rs. 427 million last year mainly because of the lower PVC-VCM margin, higher depreciation and
financial costs due to the addition of new PVC plant and Utilities.
PVC plants are running satisfactorily. The Chlor-alkali and EDC plants have been successfully tested and have
commenced production. The Company exported 3,800 tons of EDC in July. VCM plant is under trials, commercial
operation of the integrated complex is expected to be achieved in third quarter. Infrastructure to sell up to 12 MW
of power to KESC is complete, whereas work on the remaining 6 MW will be completed by mid-August. Supply of
power is expected to commence in third quarter.
Demand of PVC in domestic market in third quarter is expected to be lower due to slow down of activity during
Ramadan and Eid holidays. Based on progress made by the Company in entering the caustic soda market, the
Company will continue to penetrate the domestic market to sell out its production and will also explore export
opportunities.
The profitability of the Company will be dependent on successful commissioning of the VCM plant as it will allow
the economic benefits of a fully integrated site to flow.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying unconsolidated condensed interim balance sheet of Engro Polymer and
Chemicals Limited as at June 30, 2009 and the related unconsolidated condensed interim profit and loss account,
unconsolidated condensed interim statement of comprehensive income, unconsolidated condensed interim statement
of changes in equity and unconsolidated condensed interim cash flow statement together with the notes forming
part thereof (here-in-after referred to as the “condensed interim financial information”), for the half year then ended.
Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed interim financial information
in accordance with approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan. Our responsibility is to express a
conclusion on this condensed interim financial information based on our review.
The figures of the condensed interim profit and loss account and the condensed interim statement of comprehensive
income for the quarters ended June 30, 2008 and 2009 have not been reviewed, as we are required to review only
the cumulative figures for the half year ended June 30, 2009.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, “Review of
Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. A review of interim financial
information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and
applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance
that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not
express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed
interim financial information as of and for the half year ended June 30, 2009 is not prepared, in all material respects,
in accordance with approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
This condensed interim financial information is unaudited and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of
the International Accounting Standard 34 – ‘Interim Financial Reporting’. The figures for the half year
ended June 30, 2009 have, however, been subjected to limited scope review by the auditors, as required by the Code of
Corporate Governance.
This condensed interim financial information is being submitted to the shareholders in accordance with section 245 of the
Companies Ordinance, 1984 and should be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements of the Company
for the year ended December 31, 2008.
3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
3.1 Except as disclosed below, the accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this condensed interim financial information
are consistent with those applied in the preparation of audited annual financial statements of the Company for the year
ended December 31, 2008.
3.2 The following new standards and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning
January 1, 2009:
- IAS 1 (revised), ‘Presentation of financial statements’. The revised standard prohibits the presentation of items of
income and expenses (that is ‘non-owner changes in equity’) in the statement of changes in equity, requiring ‘non-
owner changes in equity’ to be presented separately from owner changes in equity. All ‘non-owner changes in equity’
are required to be shown in a performance statement.
Companies can choose whether to present one performance statement (the statement of comprehensive income) or
two statements (the profit and loss account and the statement of comprehensive income).
The Company has elected to present two statements; a profit and loss account and a statement of comprehensive
income. The condensed interim financial information has been prepared under the revised disclosure requirements.
- The SECP vide S.R.O. 411 (1) / 2008 dated April 28, 2008 notified the adoption of IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments:
Disclosures’. IFRS 7 is mandatory for company’s accounting periods beginning on or after the date of notification i.e.
April 28, 2008. IFRS 7 has superseded IAS 30 and disclosure requirements of IAS 32. Adoption of IFRS will only
impact the format and extent of disclosures presented in the financial statements. The Company will consider the
requirements of IFRS 7 in the annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009.
- In addition to above, following new standards and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the
financial year beginning January 1, 2009 and are also relevant for the Company. However, the adoption of these new
standards and amendments to standards did not have any significant impact on the financial information of the Company:
11
3.3 The following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are mandatory for the first time for the financial
year beginning January 1, 2009, but are not currently relevant to the Company:
4. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of this condensed interim financial information in conformity with the approved accounting standards
requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process
of applying the Company's accounting policies. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on
historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this condensed interim financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the
Company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty are the same as those that apply to
annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008.

are consistent with those applied in the preparation of audited annual financial statements of the Company for the year
ended December 31, 2008.
3.2 The following new standards and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning
January 1, 2009:
- IAS 1 (revised), ‘Presentation of financial statements’. The revised standard prohibits the presentation of items of
income and expenses (that is ‘non-owner changes in equity’) in the statement of changes in equity, requiring ‘non-
owner changes in equity’ to be presented separately from owner changes in equity. All ‘non-owner changes in equity’
are required to be shown in a performance statement.
Companies can choose whether to present one performance statement (the statement of comprehensive income) or
two statements (the profit and loss account and the statement of comprehensive income).
The Company has elected to present two statements; a profit and loss account and a statement of comprehensive
income. The condensed interim financial information has been prepared under the revised disclosure requirements.
- The SECP vide S.R.O. 411 (1) / 2008 dated April 28, 2008 notified the adoption of IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments:
Disclosures’. IFRS 7 is mandatory for company’s accounting periods beginning on or after the date of notification i.e.
April 28, 2008. IFRS 7 has superseded IAS 30 and disclosure requirements of IAS 32. Adoption of IFRS will only
impact the format and extent of disclosures presented in the financial statements. The Company will consider the
requirements of IFRS 7 in the annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009.
- In addition to above, following new standards and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the
financial year beginning January 1, 2009 and are also relevant for the Company. However, the adoption of these new
standards and amendments to standards did not have any significant impact on the financial information of the Company:

4. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of this condensed interim financial information in conformity with the approved accounting standards
requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process
of applying the Company's accounting policies. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on
historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this condensed interim financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the
Company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty are the same as those that apply to
annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008.
