COMMENT

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by Mitsuo Yamaguchi in order to make most of his experience in the subject line of business.  Katsunori is the founder’s son.  Specializes in supplying hotel equipment and supplies, such as towels, bath robes, slippers, etc.  Goods are partially imported from Korea, Thailand, China, etc.  Clients are major hotel operators in Seibu Railway group, centrally in greater-Tokyo area.  The firm has been suffering from steep decline in business from the group due to the Seibu Railway group-wise scandals.  The firm then carried out restructuring to tide over the situation, reducing the staff to 2 from the previous 4.  The business is reportedly recovering but the business environment is still severe.  The staff is now 3.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Jun/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 128 million, down from Yen 130 million in the previous period.  The business is seen still not recovered.  The net profit remained unchanged at a minimum amount.

 

For the current term ending Jun 2007 the net profit is estimated to still remain at a minimum amount, on an almost similar turnover, at Yen 130 million.

 

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 2.8 million, on 30 days normal terms.  The proposed amount for 60 days terms is considered to be within the firm’s financial capacities.  However, we recommend some caution be exercised at each transaction.
