HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established originally in 1932 by Kichizo Kumagai for trading casein, on his account.  Incorporated in 1939, and the firm has been succeeded by his descendants.  Kazuo is the founder’s son.  This is a trading company specializing in import and wholesale of dairy products, food ingredients, paper processing materials, chemicals, plywood & machinery.  In 1949 became sole distribution agent of Hokkaido Dairy Co-op (now Snow Brand), and in 1951 acquired sole distribution agency from Meiji Milk & Morinaga Milk Ind.  In 1952, when the casein imports became quota free, the firm started importing casein from New Zealand.  In 1958, imports of casein from Poland started.  In 1970, started import of clay from USA for Japanese paper industries.  In 1982, established Nippon Protein KK jointly with New Zealand Dairy Board (50/50 JV).  Clients include paper mills, food processors, bakeries, building materials traders, etc, nationwide.

 

The sales volume for Jun/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 39,397 million, a 1.5% up from Yen 38,799 million in the previous term.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 904 million and the net profit at Yen 358 million, respectively, compared with Yen 875 million recurring profit and Yen 356 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.  The firm wrote off Yen 180 million in extraordinary loss from securities disposal losses.

 

For the current term ending Jun 2006 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 960 million and the net profit at Yen 400 million, on a 4% rise in turnover, to Yen 41,000 million. Demand from paper mills will increase.

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 1,384.9 million, on normal 30 days terms.
