COMMENT

 

TRADING HOUSE SPECIALIZING IN STEEL PRODUCTS.  FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED RATHER WEAK BUT SHOULD BE GOOD FOR MODERATE BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 7 MILLION, NORMAL 30 DAYS TERMS.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by Hiroshi Morikawa in order to make most of his experience in the subject line of business.  This is a small-sized trading house for import and export of steel plates, sheets, wires, other steel products.  Recently business is centered in China due to robust demand there.  Operations are basically in the S/E Asian countries.  The firm will upgrade the status to Limited Company (from the present Private Limited Company) in Jul 2006.  Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Jun/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 750 million, a 3% up from Yen 730 million in the previous term.  The net profit remained similar at Yen 15 million, due to rising operation and materials costs.

 

For the current term ending Jun 2006 the net profit is projected at Yen 15 million, on a 7% rise in turnover, to Yen 800 million.  H Morikawa says sales will likely increase taking into the weaker Yen against foreign currencies.

 

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 7 million, on normal 30 days terms.
