FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Jun/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 641 million, an almost similar amount in the previous term.  Business is seen rather slack with trade competition getting harder.  Prices are under pressure from cheaper imports from China and other S/E Asian countries.  The profits decreased to Yen 2 million from Yen 3 million a year ago.

 

For the term just ended Jun 2007 the net profit was projected at and believed posted at Yen 3 million, on a 1% rise in turnover, to Yen 650 million.  Some recovery is seen in consumer spending.  Also the weaker Yen against foreign currencies would have contributed.

 

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.
