COMMENT

 

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

 

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

           

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Dec/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 1,715 million, an 8% up from Yen 1,586 million in the previous term.  Supply to Self Defense Forces continued strong.  The net profit was posted at Yen 68 million, compared with Yen 29 million a year ago.  This is largely due to the materials hikes and profitability improved.  The firm stopped releasing full financials for this term.

 

For the current term ending Dec 2007 the net profit is projected at Yen 70 million, on an 8% rise in turnover, to Yen 1,850 million.  Weaker Yen will likely increase sales amount in Yen terms.

 

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