Lahore: The Board of Directors of Maple Leaf Cement Factory Limited has announced its financial outcomes for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, with no dividend payouts or share entitlements for stakeholders. In a meeting held on Wednesday, August 6, 2025, at the company's registered office on Lawrence Road, Lahore, the board disclosed several key decisions affecting the company's financial strategies.

The board has sanctioned an investment of up to 1.00 billion rupees in loans and advances to Kohinoor Textile Mills Limited, the holding company, aimed at fulfilling its working capital needs. This strategic financial move awaits shareholder approval under Section 199 of the Companies Act, 2017. Concurrently, Kohinoor Textile Mills Limited will propose a similar financial facility for Maple Leaf Cement, contingent on its shareholders’ approval.

In addition, the board has approved up to 1.00 million rupees in loans and advances to Maple Leaf Capital Limited, an affiliated entity, to support its working capital requirements. This decision also requires the green light from the shareholders under the regulatory framework of the Companies Act, 2017.

According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the company's decision to forego cash dividends, bonus, and rights shares indicates a strategic pause in direct shareholder returns, aligning with broader financial consolidation and investment efforts.

The company has scheduled its Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Thursday, October 16, 2025, at its Lahore office. The meeting's agenda will likely include discussions on these financial strategies and the approval of the proposed investments. Share transfer books will be closed from October 10 to October 16, 2025, to finalize voting rights for the meeting.

Finally, Maple Leaf Cement Factory Limited will circulate its annual financial statements via the PUCARS system at least 21 days before the AGM, ensuring transparency and regulatory compliance with the Securities Act, 2015.
