About the Company

Beximco Pharmaceuticals Ltd. is a leading manufacturer and exporter of medicines in Bangladesh. Incorporated in 1976, 
the company started its operation by importing products from Bayer, Germany and Upjohn, USA and selling them in the 
local market. In 1980 Beximco began manufacturing of these products under licensing arrangement and launched its 
own formulation brands in 1983. From that humble beginning, Beximco Pharma has grown from strength to strength, and 
today it has become an emerging global generic drug company from the region. Beximco’s manufacturing facilities have 
been accredited by the leading global regulatory authorities, and medicines manufactured by the company are now being 
exported to more than 50 countries including the highly regulated markets of USA, Europe, Canada and Australia. The 
company has won the National Export (Gold) trophy a record 5 times and remains the only company in the country to win 
the highly prestigious SCRIP Award as the Best Pharma Company in an Emerging Market. It also has the unique distinction 
as the only Bangladeshi company to get listed on the AIM of London Stock Exchange. In Bangladesh, the company is listed 
with both Dhaka and Chittagong Stock Exchanges. Beximco Pharma also has a majority stake in  Nuvista Pharma (formerly 
Organon Bangladesh), a leading hormone and steroid manufacturer in the country.  

The  company  currently  employs  more  than  4000  employees  including  doctors,  pharmacists,  engineers,  chemists, 
accountants, business graduates and other white collar professionals.

Managing Director’s Statement

Dear Shareholders,

Bangladesh has become one of the fastest growing economies in the world maintaining more than 6% growth over the 
last decade and an impressive 7% plus growth in the last couple of years. Continued socioeconomic progress has led 
Bangladesh  graduating  to  developing  nation  status,  and  country’s  remarkable  achievements  in  healthcare  have  been 
lauded globally. 

The  Bangladesh  pharmaceutical  market  continues  to  register  a  healthy  double  digit  growth  reaching Tk  201.7  billion 
during 2017-18. Local companies continue to dominate the top 10 list and they account for almost 70% of the market.  

2017-18 was a good year for Beximco Pharma, on the back of a strong performance of our key brands. Company performed 
very well across all therapeutic categories, especially in 
chronic  therapy  segment.  Key  therapeutic  areas  like 
cardiovascular,  anti-diabetic,  respiratory  performed 
exceptionally  well,  outperforming  the  market  growth. 
In the acute therapy area, analgesics, antiinfectives and 
musculoskeletal also saw impressive results. During the 
period under review the company expanded its portfolio 
with 16 new products and 5 of them were launched for 
the first time in Bangladesh.

According to the latest global healthcare report “2018 
and Beyond: Outlook and Turning Points” from IQVIA, the 
share  of  global  medicine  spending  from  pharmerging 
markets  (22  developing  nations  including  Bangladesh, 
India,  Pakistan,  Russia,  Egypt,  Philippines, 
China, 
Thailand,  Mexico,  South  Africa  etc.)  has  risen  sharply 
from 13% in 2007 to 24% in 2017.  This was largely driven by governments’ efforts to expand access to healthcare as well 
as the substantial investments made by the manufacturers for expanded operations. Bangladesh  with the highest CAGR 
growth (nearly 20%) during 2013-17, is projected to maintain the lead with CAGR around 15% during 2018-22 period 
among all the pharmerging nations. 

almost 70% of the market.

IQVIA  report  shows  global  pharmaceutical  market  in  2017  was  valued  at  $1.14  trillion  growing  by  around  3.5%  over 
the previous year. On the other hand, global generic drugs market, valued at $350 billion, is growing at a much higher 
rate. This will continue as there is increasing pressure from governments around the world to contain healthcare cost 
and also because more and more blockbuster drugs are going off patent every year. This creates huge opportunity for 
generic drug industry. We always believe Bangladesh can capitalize on the opportunities in generic drug space with its 
skill, regulatory compliance, quality standards and above all competitiveness. Currently, Bangladesh has the facilities for 
producing advanced medicines like biosimilars, vaccines, insulins and oncology products alongside active pharmaceuticals 
ingredients and medical devices. The government has also taken various initiatives to promote the industry and realize its 
actual export potential.  

Country’s  pharmaceuticals  exports  fetched  $103.46  million  in  the  last  fiscal  year,  up  16.03  percent  year-on-year.  Our 
export business posted excellent 37% growth. We have a growing and visible presence in the US market with 6 products 
approved by the US FDA and 4 of them being exported. We hope US would be one of our largest export markets in terms of 
value within the next 3-4 years. You would be delighted to know Beximco has won the highly prestigious Scrip Award 2017 
in the category of Best Company in an Emerging Market. It’s a global recognition of the company’s considerable progress 
made in recent times. We will continue to foster partnerships with global MNCs and shall reinforce our efforts to  achieve

our aspiration to become an important and highly admired global generic company.  

We have completed the first-ever acquisition in the history of Bangladesh pharma industry, taking a majority stake of 
Bangladesh  based  hormones  and  steroids  specialist  Nuvista  Pharma  (formerly  Organon  Bangladesh  Limited).  Nuvista 
offers a good strategic fit with Beximco Pharma; almost 70% of their product range does not compete with our portfolio. 
Hormonal  products  were  one  of  the  growth  areas  for 
Beximco  as  we  are  focused  on  strengthening  our 
presence  in  chronic  segment.  Nuvista  acquisition  will 
definitely  help  accelerate  our  business  in  the  coming 
days.

We  have  continued  making  investment  in  expanding 
capacity, including the ‘Unit III’ oral solids, semi-solids 
and  liquids  at  Tongi  site.  This  large  scale  facility  is 
now  expected  to  be  operational  by  the  end  of  2019. 
Once operational the Unit III facility will have an annual 
capacity of about 5 billion solid-dose tablets, capsules 
and  sachets;  70  million  semi-solid  units,  including 
creams,  ointments,  liquid  sachets  and  lotions;  and 
130  million  large-  and  small-volume  bottles  of  liquid 
formulations. Our state-of-the-art human insulin facility is now ready and commercial launch is expected by Q1 of 2019.  
The metered dose inhaler expansion project involving single stage operation is completed while second line of single

Limited).

Beximco Pharma has completed its technology transfer to Malaysia based BioCare Manufacturing in establishing the first 
metered dose inhaler facility in Malaysia under the government’s Economic Transformation Program. The facility, located 
at Malaysia’s Seri Iskandar pharmaceuticals park, is now fully operational.  

By now we have secured accreditations from almost all major global regulatory authorities and in this year our Unit II oral 
solid dosage (OSD) facility got WHO prequalification status. Prequalification is a United Nation’s program provided by WHO 
to assess the quality, safety and efficacy of medicinal products procured by the international agencies. This will largely 
enable us participate in international tenders by global agencies. 

Going forward we will continue to invest in building our capabilities and focus our strategy in areas where we believe we 
have ample opportunities to grow.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each of our employees, shareholders and stakeholders for the continued 
support and confidence on the company and its management.

to transport, BPL’s products are generally moved by road throughout Bangladesh – predominantly between the factories

Chairman’s Statement

policy offers some Incentive packages attractive to the API 
industry.  We  have  taken  initiative  to  set  up  an  exclusive 
API  manufacturing  facility  in  the  dedicated  API  Industrial 
Park  developed  by  the  government  to  avail  the  growth 
opportunities. 
As I reported last year, we are making significant investments 
in  manufacturing  facilities  to  build  and  expand  capacity 
to  secure  sustainable  growth. You  will  find  in  this  report, 
several such projects are now in progress. We completed 
manufacturing of validation batches in our human insulin 
facility  and  have  rescheduled  the  commercial  launch  of 
Insulin by the first quarter of 2019 that misses the initial 
target  due  to  practical  reasons.  Our  largest  expansion 
project (Unit III) to manufacture oral solid, liquid and semi-
solid  products  is  now  expected  to  be  completed  by  end 
of the third quarter instead of the earlier estimate of first 
quarter of 2019.

We keep on driving our strategies to expand our share in 
the  domestic  market  and  achieve  export-led  accelerated 
growth in the longer term. We are mindful of the challenges 
ahead to become one of the most admired and successful 
companies in the region. Our success so far has given us 
a solid foothold to further move forward our ambition and I 
remain confident that we are taking the appropriate actions 
to grow and deliver results for our shareholders. 

Members  of  the  Board  of  Directors  have  extended  their 
unceasing  co-operation  throughout  the  year.  I  convey  my 
heartfelt  gratitude  to  them.  Employees  of  the  Company 
deserve  special  recognition  for  their  devoted  services. 
I  acknowledge  the  support  and  co-operation  we  have 
received from our bankers, suppliers, doctors’ community, 
healthcare professionals, the regulatory bodies, government 
agencies  and  every  other  person  with  whom  we  have 
interacted  in  the  conduct  of  our  business.,  Finally,  I  am 
grateful to you-our valued shareholders, for your continued 
confidence in us. 

Thanking you

Dear Shareholders, 

I  am  delighted  to  share  that  for  the  tenth  consecutive 
year, the Company is reporting growth in sales and profit. 
As I look back in 2007 which was a difficult year for the 
Company, we noted a 3% negative growth in sales at Tk. 
3,597.0  million.  Our  domestic  sales  revenue  in  that  year 
was Tk. 3,474.2 million while the export was a meager Tk. 
122.8 million. But we turned around in the immediate next 
year and from there on, continuing the growth momentum 
doubled our sale every five years. As we report today, our 
consolidated  domestic  and  export  sales  revenue  stands 
at Tk. 16,239.7 and Tk. 1,477.0 million, respectively. This 
is undeniably an achievement that deserves appreciation. 
The  report  of  the  Directors  and  the  Financial  Statements 
annexed  thereto  provides  details  of  the  operating  and 
financial performance of the Company and you will find that 
the Company is moving towards the right direction. 

This  year  we  acquired  Nuvista  Pharma  -our  first  ever 
acquisition, setting a new milestone for the Pharmaceutical 
Industry  of  the  country.  This  strategic  acquisition  will 
further reinforce our position in the domestic market and 
accelerate  growth.  Although  Nuvista’s  financials  for  the 
three-month  post-acquisition  period  shows  a  loss  of  Tk. 
23.3 million, I am confident that re-organized Nuvista under 
its  competent  new  management  will  turn  to  be  a  worthy 
investment. 

Government has declared Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient 
(API)  and  Lab  Regent  Production  and  Export  Policy  to 
promote  local  production  of  API  substituting  import.  The

Chairman’s Statement | Annual Report 2017-18 | 47

Report of the Directors to the Shareholders

I am pleased to place before you the Directors’ Report and the Audited Accounts of the company for the year ended 30 
June, 2018 along with the report of the auditors thereon.

Economic Overview 

Bangladesh macroeconomic report portrays a positive performance with impressive GDP growth, per capita income and 
steady inflation. Exceeding the initial target, Bangladesh achieved the highest-ever 7.86% GDP growth in the last fiscal 
year  (2017-18).  Industrial,  Service  and Agriculture  sectors  which  increased  by  12.06  percent,  6.39  percent  and  4.19 
percent respectively, contributed to the GDP growth. The per capita income has improved by 8.75 percent to $1,751 in the 
FY 2017-18. Inflation rate below 6% though remained under control, the domestic currency against its principal foreign 
currency US Dollar declined by 4% on point-to-point basis. There have been no disruptive political activities throughout the 
period. The political stability coupled with a remarkable performance of the economy helped sustain the continued growth 
of the pharmaceuticals sector.

The  lending  interest  rates  of  the  commercial  banks  have  somewhat  declined  yielding  to  the  appeal  of  the  business 
community and directives from the central bank but remains at double digit level. This is predicted to have positive impact 
on investment. 

Government has declared Pharmaceuticals including their raw materials as the “Product of the Year” 2018 recognizing the 
importance of the pharmaceuticals sector in the country’s economy. Following this, a policy gazette titled “National Policy 
on API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) and Laboratory Reagents production and Export” was passed in May 2018 to 
encourage local manufacture of APIs as a backward linkage to cater to the requirement of the domestic pharmaceutical 
formulations companies and to reduce dependence on import. The policy offers several fiscal and non-fiscal incentive 
measures including tax holidays, exemptions from Value Added Tax, 20% cash incentives for export, a liberal credit policy, 
priority  in  government  procurement  etc.  among  others.  Different  authorities  and  agencies  involved  will  now  develop 
operating procedures to implement the policy which is expected to take time. Additionally, the Government has declared 
10% cash incentives for export of pharmaceutical along with specific other products for the fiscal year 2018-19. The 
exporters of medicine subject to certain conditions will get 10% of the value of export in cash from the government. The 
Pharmaceutical Industry of the country will be benefited from the supportive policies of the government. 

Review of Operations

The Company for the first time is reporting consolidated financial statements due to its recent acquisition of the majority 
stake  of  Nuvista  Pharma. We  completed  the  acquisition  deal  on April  2,  2018  and  as  such  the  consolidated  financial 
statements include Nuvista’s operating results for the post-acquisition period of three months only. 

I am happy to inform that besides achieving sales and profit targets, the Company in 2017-18 has well progressed to 
achieve its operational targets setting several milestones and thus strengthened its strategic positioning.  I would like to 
highlight the following for your consideration and informed judgments; 

Acquisition of Nuvista Pharma 

As you already know, Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited has acquired 85.22% stake in Nuvista Pharma Limited, a leading 
pharmaceuticals company in Bangladesh specializing in hormones and steroid drugs. This is the first ever acquisition of 
the Company and the country’s pharmaceutical industry. Nuvista, formerly Organon (Bangladesh) Ltd., was a subsidiary of 
Netherlands based Organon International. It was sold to the Bangladeshi management in 2006.Nuvista has been operating 
in Bangladesh since 1964, with a local manufacturing facility at Tongi, Dhaka.

Immediately after the acquisition, the Board of Directors of Nuvista was reconstructed. The four-member Nuvista Board 
now comprises three nominees from Beximco Pharma and one member from the Ministry of Industries of Government of 
Bangladesh who holds 12.92 percent of the paid up capital of the company. Mr. Nazmul Hassan, Managing Director and 

48 | Annual Report 2017-18 | Report of the Directors to the Shareholders          

Mr. Rabbur Reza, Chief Operating Officer of Beximco Pharma have been appointed as Chairman and Managing Director 
respectively, of Nuvista Pharma. In a competitive domestic market, the acquisition of Nuvista is a good strategic fit for the 
Company as their strong position in hormones and steroids, with a unique portfolio of 50 generic products, complements 
Beximco Pharma’s existing product range. We are now concentrating on integration and re-alignment of Nuvista’s business 
and operating models for accelerated growth. 

Sales Performance 

During the period under discussion the Company attained consolidated net sales of Tk. 17,716.7 million as against Tk. 
15,508.8 million representing significant 14.2% overall growth. The current period however, includes three month’s sales 
of the subsidiary Nuvisata Pharma which was not there in the prior period.

 Beximco Pharma standalone analysis reveals that the domestic market sales grew by an impressive 10.2% to reach at 
Tk. 15,903.8 million as compared to Tk. 14,430.3 million of the preceding year. Our winning sales management strategies 
resulted expected growth in all our key therapeutic segments. Consequent to our consistent effort to expand international 
penetration, the export revenue increased to Tk. 1477.0 million registering an inspiring 37% rise over comparable previous 
period. Export now makes up 8.5% of our overall sales. During the year, we completed 46 registrations of 38 products 
in 22 countries; started export to Canada setting another milestone as the first Bangladeshi Company; and entered three 
other overseas markets- Botswana, Zambia and Uzbekistan. Since export of our first product- Carvedilol in August 2016, 
we have as of date, received approval of six products from the US Food and Drug Administration and commenced export 
of four products in the US market. 

Profitability 

Along with sales the Company maintained its profit growth. The consolidated pre-tax profit stands at Tk. 3,361.3 million 
as against Tk. 2,891.5 million earned in 2016-17 representing 16.3% YoY increase (16.4% on standalone basis). Gross 
margin as a percentage of sales improved despite depreciation of Taka against dollar, due to leveraging effect of increased 
sales volume. The operating expenses remained contained at 24.0% (23.8% on a standalone basis) of sales as against 
24.1% of the prior period. The consolidated net profit rose by 13.7% (14.92% standalone basis) to Tk. 2,532.7 million as 
against Tk. 2,226.7 million.

Credit Rating

In August  2018,  Credit  Rating  Information  and  Services  Limited  (CRISL)-  the  country’s  leading  Credit  Rating  company 
having Joint Venture with JCR-VIS Credit Rating Company Limited, Pakistan, has assigned AA+(Pronounced as Double A 
plus) rating in the long term and ST-1 rating in the short term to Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited.

Amendments to Memorandum and Articles of Associations 

The board of Directors has decided to amend certain clauses of Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company. 
An Extra-ordinary General Meeting has been convened for this purpose. Amendments to the MoA and AoA are required to 
accommodate the changing business needs and make them time befitting.

Formation of Beximco Pharma API Limited 

We reported last year that Beximco Pharma has got the allotment of two plots measuring 654 decimals in the API Industrial 
Park  at  Munshiganj,  exclusively  built  to  accommodate API  manufacturing  facilities.  In  the  meantime,  Government  has 
declared  API  and  Lab  Reagent  Production  and  Export  policy  to  promote  API  manufacturing  sector  aiming  to  reduce 
dependence on import. As mentioned in the earlier section of this report, a package of incentives has been proposed in 
the said policy. Subsequent to the date of Financial Position, the Company has formed an entity named Beximco Pharma 
API Limited with a paid up capital of Tk. 20 million divided into 2 million shares of Tk. 10 each. The proposed Beximco 
Pharma API limited is a 100% subsidiary of Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited. Since Bangladesh Company law does not 
permit formation of single ownership company, we have allotted a nominal 10 shares to an individual to comply with the 
regulatory requirement.

Statement of Directors on Financial Reports

Directors are pleased to report the following: 

The financial statements together with the notes thereon have been drawn up in conformity with the Companies 
Act,  1994  and  Securities  and  Exchange  Rules,  1987. These  statements  present  fairly  the  Company’s  state  of 
affairs, the result of its operations, cash flow and changes in equity. 

Proper books of accounts of the Company have been maintained. 

Appropriate accounting policies have been consistently applied in preparation of the financial statements except 
those  referred  to  in  the  financial  statements  and  that  the  accounting  estimates  are  based  on  reasonable  and 
prudent judgment. 

The International Accounting Standards (IASs)/ Bangladesh Accounting Standards (BASs)/ International Financial 
Reporting  Standards  (IFRSs)/  Bangladesh  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (BFRSs),  as  applicable  in  Bangladesh, 
have been followed in preparation of the financial statements. 

Internal Control System is sound in design and has been effectively implemented and monitored. 

There is no significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Risks and Concerns 

Enterprises are not free from risks that might arise both from internal and external fronts. Like any other business or 
industry, Beximco Pharmaceuticals operating in a dynamic and competitive market, is also exposed to risks that may 
affect its business. 

The growth of pharmaceutical Industry in Bangladesh is predominantly driven by individual private spending which depends 
on the economic advancement and consequent increase in the purchasing power of the people. Any decline in economic 
growth could, as for any other industry, impact the future demand for pharmaceuticals. Bangladesh however, maintained 
a steady economic progress over the years with substantial uplift in all socio-economic indexes and it is anticipated that 
the trend will continue in the immediate future years. Bangladesh has set its goal to turn into a middle income country by 
2021. Improvement in the standard of living, education and increased health awareness reinforced by added purchasing 
power is expected to trigger the demand for healthcare products in the coming years. 

The  Company  operates  in  a  competitive  domestic  market.  Retention  and  expansion  of  the  existing  market  share  of 
different therapeutics categories and addition of new products in line with the changing demand of the market are the key 
to achieve the desired revenue and profit targets. Beximco Pharmaceuticals has talented marketing and sales team with 
the proven record of success. Its strong R & D team is unrelentingly focused on development and improvement of product, 
process and technology to match the evolving needs.  

The Company like other pharmaceutical companies of the country is dependent on import for its APIs. Any substantial 
increase in prices in the international market may affect future profitability. Beximco Pharma buys its raw materials from

different sources across the world at competitive prices. The Company is not reliant on any single supplier for its materials 
and therefore reduces the individual supplier’s influence on procurement prices. Likewise, its customer base is also well 
diversified.

Uncertainties emanating from significant changes in the pharmaceutical policy and regulations, tax regime along with 
unforeseen political instability may also threaten the growth potential of the pharmaceutical sector.

Periodic appraisal of risks embedded in the operating activities of the business and deciding on the mitigating measures are 
part of the routine responsibilities of the senior management of the Company. Management Committee which comprises 
different  functional  heads  of  the  Company  meets  on  a  monthly  basis  to  discuss  operational  issues,  performance  and 
progress. Depending on the risk, it takes strategic decisions to avoid, reduce, transfer or accommodate the risks arising 
in the business management process. Additionally, Company’s investment decisions go through proper due diligence and 
decisions are made after appropriate consideration of the related risks and the Company’s acceptable risk appetite. The 
Company intends to earn competitive returns at acceptable risk levels.

Related Party Transaction

Related  party  transactions  are  carried  out  on  an  arm’s  length  basis.  Audit  committee  while  reviewing  the  financial 
statements periodically carries out in-depth analysis of the transactions involving related parties. Note 39 of the financial 
statements provides details of the transactions with the related party.

Certification by the Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer 

The Managing Director (Chief Executive Officer) and the Chief Financial Officer have certified to the Board that they have 
reviewed the Financial Statements for the period 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018 and to the best of their knowledge and 
belief: 

The Financial Statements present a true and fair view of the affairs of the Company and  are  in  compliance  with 
existing accounting standards and applicable laws

code of conduct.

The Audit Committee in its meeting held on 23 October 2018 reviewed along with management, the Financial Statements 
and the report of the auditor for the year ending on June 30, 2018. During the meeting the Chief Financial Officer presented 
the annual accounts along with the independent auditors report to the committee. CFO briefed the Committee that the 
Company for the first time is presenting consolidated financial statements due to its recent acquisition of the majority 
stake of Nuvista Pharma which as per International Accounting Standard is to be dealt with as a subsidiary. The committee 
in detail looked into the compliance of the disclosure provisions as per IFRS/IAS/BFRS and other regulatory authorities 
including BSEC. They further discussed the financial reporting process and the adequacy of the internal control in place to 
prevent errors and fraudulent activities. 

The  Committee  carefully  examined  the  related  party  transactions  carried  out  between  different  associated  companies 
including the subsidiary. The committee was well satisfied that the related party transactions were made on an arm’s 
length basis in the normal course of business and the transactions have been appropriately disclosed in the financial 
statements. The independent auditors’ report also did not contain any material audit observation that called for the boards’ 
consideration. The committee being satisfied authorized for onward submission of the Audited Financial Statements to the 
Board for approval. 

Additionally, during the year the Committee met three other occasions to review among others, the Interim Un-audited 
Financial Statements issued by the company at quarter ends. In each instance, the committee held detailed discussions 
with senior management on different aspects of the financial statements to ensure accuracy, consistency and compliance 
of the reports in all material aspects. The committee also considered the related party transactions and found that all 
related party transactions were made on an arm’s length basis.

In  reliance  to  the  reviews  and  considerations  of  the Audit  Committee  the  Board  in  each  case  approved  the  Financial 
Statements including the Annual Audited Financial Statements for release to the shareholders.

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Beximco  Pharmaceuticals  Limited,  which  comprises  the 
Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as at 30 June 2018, the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive 
Income, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year from 01 July 2017 to 30 
June 2018 then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other relevant explanatory notes.

The  Financial  statements  of  the  same  period  of  the  subsidiary  Nuvista  Pharma  Limited  was  audited  by A.  Qasem  &  Co.  Chartered 
Accountants, who through their report dated 13 October 2018 expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements. 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements 
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International 
Financial  Reporting  Standards  (IFRSs),  Bangladesh  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (BFRSs),  and  Bangladesh  Accounting  Standards 
(BASs), the Companies Act 1994, the Securities and Exchange Rules 1987 and other applicable laws and regulations and for such 
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with 
International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and Bangladesh Standards on Auditing (BSA). Those standards require that we comply with 
ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
from material misstatement. 

An  audit  involves  performing  procedures  to  obtain  audit  evidence  about  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements. 
The  procedures  selected  depend  on  our  judgment,  including  the  assessment  of  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial 
statements,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.  In  making  those  risk  assessments,  we  consider  internal  control  relevant  to  the  entity’s 
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedure that are appropriate in the circumstance, 
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating 
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as 
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 30 June 
2018, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting 
Standards (IFRSs) and Bangladesh Financial Reporting Standards (BFRSs), the Companies Act 1994, the Securities and Exchange Rules 
1987 and other applicable laws and regulations.

purposes of our audit and made due verification thereof;

3. Significant Accounting Policies

3.1. Basis of Consolidation
The financial statements of the subsidiary Nuvista Pharma Limited has been consolidated with those of Beximco Pharmaceuticals 
Limited in accordance with IFRS/BFRS 10: Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company acquired 85.22% shares of the issued paid up capital of Nuvista Pharma Limited. This ownership interest is adequate 
enough  to  establish  control  over  NPL  and  thus  BPL  meets  the  conditions  as  stated  in  IFRS/BFRS  10:  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements to consider NPL as a subsidiary. Consolidation has been done for the period since the date at which the Company 
obtained control over the subsidiary through completion of the acquisition deal.  

3.2. Inter-Company Transactions 
Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Income, Expenses and Cash Flows arising out of transactions between the Company and the subsidiary 
have been eliminated in full in the Consolidated Financial Statements. 

3.3. Non-Controlling Interests (NCIs)
Non-Controlling Interests (NCIs) at the date of acquisition has been measured at fair value of the net assets of the acquired company 
in proportion to the shares of the entitled holders. Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income subsequent to the acquisition, has 
been allocated to the Owners of the Company and to the NCIs and also disclosed in the financial statements. 

3.4. Purchase Consideration
The Company acquired the shares of Nuvista Pharma Limited for cash which consisted of the total negotiated price for the acquisition 
less any adjustments made as per condition precedence set out in the terms of agreement. The net amount paid or payable, has 
been accounted for as the Purchase Consideration for the acquisition. This also includes the shares transfer fee paid to the Registrar 
of Joint Stock Companies and Firms.

3.5. Valuation of Goodwill
Goodwill  has  been  determined  in  accordance  with  IFRS/BFRS  3:  Business  Combination.  This  represents  the  excess  of  the 
aggregate of Purchase Consideration and the acquisition-date fair value of NCI’s share in the net assets over the acquisition-date fair 
value of the net assets of the subsidiary. 

3.6. Basis of Estimation of Fair Values at Acquisition
The Company engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers Bangladesh Pvt. Ltd. to provide estimates of the Fair Value for the tangible assets 
and  identified  intangible  assets  as  per  criteria  set  out  in  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  and  Bangladesh  Financial 
Reporting Standards 3 (IFRS/BFRS 3: Business Combination). Management has considered the report of the said independent 
firm in allocating the total consideration paid for the acquisition among various classes of acquired assets in compliance of the 
requirement of IFRS/BFRS 3. 

Tangible fixed assets other than land were valued using the depreciated replacement cost method. Depreciated replacement costs 
reflect adjustments for physical deterioration as well as functional and economic obsolescence.

Land was valued at prevailing market price taking into consideration factors like location, size and industrial or other use, availability 
of infrastructure etc., among others.

The intangible assets relating to Developed Products has been valued using the Multi-period Excess Earning Method while the Trade 
Name/Trademark has been valued following Relief-from Royalty approach.

The  fair  value  of  inventories  are  determined  based  on  the  estimated  selling  price  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business  less  the 
estimated costs of completion and sale.

3.7. Acquisition related Costs
All  advisory,  accounting,  valuation,  legal  or  other  professional/consulting  fees  and  general  administrative  costs  related  to  the 
acquisition of business has been accounted for as expense.

3.6 Impairment

reliably. Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, indications that a debtor 
or issuer will enter bankruptcy etc.

(b) Non-Financial Assets
An asset is impaired when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The company assesses at each reporting date 
whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable 
amount of the asset. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Carrying 
amount of the assets is reduced to its recoverable amount by recognizing an impairment loss if, and only if, the recoverable amount 
of the asset is less than its carrying amount. Impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried

a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can 
be made of the amount of the obligation. Provision is ordinarily measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle 
the present obligation at the date of statement of financial position. Where the effect of time value of money is material, the amount 
of provision is measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation.

3.9 Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Other Comprehensive Income and accounted for in accordance with the requirements of IAS 12: Income Taxes.

Deferred Tax
The company has recognized deferred tax using balance sheet method in compliance with the provisions of IAS 12:Income Taxes. 
The company’s policy of recognition of deferred tax assets/ liabilities is based on temporary  differences (Taxable or deductible) 
between the carrying amount (Book value) of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purpose and its tax base, and accordingly, 
deferred tax income/expenses has been considered to determine net profit after tax and earnings per shares (EPS).

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available, against which temporary

employees contribute 10% of their basic salary to the provident fund and the company also makes equal contribution.

exchange for such contribution. The legal and constructive obligation is limited to the amount it agrees to contribute to the fund.

weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

52. Financial Risk Management

The management of company  has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the company’s risk management 
framework. Risk management policies, procedures and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and 
the company’s activities. The company has exposure to the following risks for its use of financial instruments.

Credit risk

Liquidity risk

Market risk

    52.01 Credit Risk

Credit  risk  is  the  risk  of  a  financial  loss  to  the  company  if  a  customer  or  counterparty  to  a  financial  instrument  fails  to  meet 
its contractual obligations and arises principally from the company’s receivables. Management has a credit policy in place and 
exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. As at June 30, 2018 substantial part of the receivables are those from 
its related company and subject to insignificant credit risk. Risk exposures from other financial assets. i.e. Cash at bank and other 
external receivables are nominal.

    52.02 Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The company’s approach      
to managing liquidity ( cash and cash equivalents) is to ensure as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet 
its liabilities when due under both normal and stressed conditions without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the 
company’s reputation. Typically, the company ensures that it has sufficient cash and cash equivalent to meet expected operational 
expenses    including  financial  obligations  through  preparation  of  the  cash  flow  forecast  with  due  consideration  of  time  line  of 
payment of the financial obligation and accordingly arrange for sufficient liquidity/fund to make the expected payment within due 
date. In extreme stressed conditions the company may get support from the related company in the form of short term financing.

    52.03 Market Risk

 Market risk is the risk that any change in market prices such as foreign exchange rates and interest will affect the company’s  
income or the value of its holdings financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market 
risk exposures within acceptable parameters.

   (a) Currency risk

The company is exposed to currency risk on certain revenues and purchases such as revenue from foreign customers and import 
of raw material, machineries and equipment. Majority of the company’s foreign currency transactions are denominated in USD and  
relate to procurement of raw materials, machineries and equipment from abroad. The company have received foreign currency 
loan which shall be repaid in foreign currency.

    (b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that arises due to changes in interest rates on borrowing. The foreign currency loan is subject to floating 
rates of interest. Local loans are, however, not significantly affected by fluctuations in interest rates. The company has not entered 
into any type of derivative instrument in order to hedge interest rate risk as at the reporting date.

Audited Financial Statements
Nuvista  Pharma Ltd
For the Year Ended June 30, 2018

AUDITORS’ REPORT   
To the shareholders of Nuvista Pharma Limited 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  financial  statements  of  Nuvista  Pharma  Limited  which  comprise  the  statement  of  financial 
position as at 30 June 2018 and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity 
and  statement  of  cash  flows  for  the  year  then  ended,  and  a  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  and  other  explanatory 
notes. 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements  

Management  is  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  these financial   statements   in   accordance with  
Bangladesh Financial Reporting Standards (BFRSs), and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable  
the  preparation  of  financial  statements  that  are  free  from  material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

Auditors’ Responsibility  

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with 
Bangladesh Standards on Auditing (BSA). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform 
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the 
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.  In  making  those  risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control 
relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are 
appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  the  entity’s  internal 
control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting  
estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall presentation of the financial statements.

purpose of our audit and made due verification thereof.

income as per provision of  BAS 16: “Property, plant and equipment”. 

3.6 Impairment   

3.6.1 Recognition 
The carrying value of the company’s assets, other than inventories, are reviewed at each Statement of financial position date to 
determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. 
An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of the asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable 
amount. Impairment losses, if any, are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. For the assets 
that have indefinite useful life, the recoverable amount is estimated at each Statement of financial position date. 

No indication of impairment was observed in the year ending 30 June 2018. 

3.6.2 Calculation of recoverable amount 
The  recoverable  amount  of  an  asset  is  the  greater  of  net  selling  price  and  value  in  use. The  estimated  future  cash  flows  are 
discounted to their present value using discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and 
the risk specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate significantly independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is 
determined for the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.  

3.6.3 Reversal of impairment 
An impairment loss recognised in prior periods for an asset shall be reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates 
used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.  
An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would 
have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. 

There was no reversal of impairment in the year ended 30 June 2018. 

3.7 Capital work-in-progress 
Capital work-in-progress represents the cost incurred for acquisition and/or construction of items of property, plant and equipment 
that were not ready for use at the year end and these are stated at cost.  

3.8 Taxation 
Tax on the  Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is 
recognised in the Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised 
directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. 

3.8.1 Current tax  
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the 
Statement of financial position date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. 

3.8.2 Deferred tax 
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting 
purposes  and  the  amounts  used  for  taxation  purposes.  The  following  temporary  differences  are  not  provided  for:  the  initial 
recognition of goodwill; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit other than in a 
business combination, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the 
foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying 
amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and 
liabilities are offset if there is a legal enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes 
levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity.    

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the 
temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that is no 
longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. 

3.9 Inventories 
Inventories are valued at the lower of  cost and Net Realisable Value (NRV).

of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate 
can be made of the amount of the obligation. 

3.13 Revenue recognition   
Revenue  from  the  sale  of  goods  is  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  or  receivable,  net  of  returns  and 
VAT. Revenue is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the 
consideration  is  probable,  the  associated  costs  and  possible  return  of  goods  can  be  estimated  reliably,  there  is  no  continuing 
management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Transfer of risk and rewards occurs 
for the sale of goods, when the product is delivered to the customers along with dispatch documents and invoices.
