Annual Report - 2004
The company has turned in excellent Malawi Kwacha resulted which are substantially above budget. These impressive results have been achieved against the back drop of reducing volumes. Total volumes were 2.2% below budget and 2.5% below those achieved during the previous year.

The reduction in volumes is attributable to lack of major civil and building contracts, cash flow problems affecting some of the dealers running retail sites, the rice and margin review for lubricants implemented earlier in the year and the power cuts which affected retail sites without generating sets.

The company has implemented measures which should be enabling it to claw back the lost volumes.

Annual Report - 2005
The Company's results are 69 percent below budget and 62 per cent below those achieved during the previous year.

The results have been adversely affected by non-achievement of budgeted volumes in all business units other than retail, the lack of a margin increase, the MK203 million tax under provided in previous years and various other expenses not accrued in 2004.

Cost control measures which are not very effective during the year under review will be vigorously implemented.
