COMMENT

 

TRADING HOUSE SPECIALIZING IN AIRCRAFT METAL PARTS & COMPONENTS.  FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 28.6 MILLION, NORMAL 30 DAYS TERMS.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by father of Shoichi Mochizuki in order to import and wholesale metal parts for aircrafts.  This is a specialized trading house, owned and managed by the Mochizuki family, for import and wholesale of stainless steel & special metal parts & components for supply to aircrafts, aerospace, helicopters, other.  In 1977, launched import of fertilizer spray equipment for helicopters.  In 1978, imported Bell Helicopter G4A rebuilt craft.  In 1979, started import and supply of aluminum parts and materials to Self Defense Agency.  In 1984, imports started of aluminum extrusion materials from Tiernay Metal, USA.  Opened USA office in 1989.  In 1990, started business with Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals Inc, USA. 

 

The sales volume for Dec/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 1,586 million, a 44% sharp rise from Yen 1,099 million in the previous term.  This is largely attributed to the international price hikes of stainless and other metal materials. The recurring profit was posted at Yen 61 million and the net profit at Yen 29 million, respectively, compared with Yen 13 million recurring profit and Yen 8 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

For the current term ending Dec 2006 the net profit is projected at Yen 30 million, on a 10% rise in turnover, to Yen 1,750 million.  Weaker Yen will likely boost sales in Yen terms.

 

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 28.6 million, on normal 30 days terms.
