COMMENT

 

WHOLESALER SPECIALIZING IN INDUSTRIAL PAINTS, OWNED BY KANSAI PAINT CO LTD.  FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 146.1 MILLION, NORMAL 30 DAYS TERMS.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established as a sales dealership, as KK Kanpe Kyohan Tokyo, by Kansai Paint Co Ltd (see REGISTRATION) to market the parent’s paints products over the Eastern part of Japan.  Established also were three dealerships to cover Mid Japan/Western Japan and Kyushu areas.  In July 2002 all the four dealerships were amalgamated to integrate operations into the one dealership as captioned.  The firm wholesales industrial and building paints & coatings, others.  Goods are all supplied from the parent and group firms and distributed through sub dealership agents nationwide.

The sales volume for Mar/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 37,469 million, a slight down from Yen 37,553 million in the previous term.  The profit, on the other hand, improved to register Yen 218 million net profit for the term.  This compares with Yen 180 million net losses the previous term, coming from the merger and liquidation of offices expenses.

 

For the term ended Mar 2006 the net profit is believed posted at Yen 220 million, on a 6% rise in turnover, to Yen 39,700 million.  This reflects the sales growth of the parent (see REGISTRATION).

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 146.1 million, on normal 30 days terms.
