COMMENT

 

MFR SPECIALIZING IN WOODEN FURNITURE. FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR BUT DOUBTFUL FOR CREDIT ENGAGEMENTS: US$700,000 / T/T TERMS                  

                       

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 21.6 MILLION, 30 DAYS NORMAL TERMS.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

           

The subject company was established by Hiroshi Aoki in order to make most of his experience in the subject line of business.  This is a trading firm with mfg division for import and wholesale of furniture and interior items.  Has mfg and sales bases in China and Taiwan.  Domestic clients include supermarket chains, specialty stores, other, nationwide.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

           

The sales volume for Aug/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 850 million, a 7% up from Yen 792 million in the previous term.  Quality goods started to import from China & Taiwan.  The net profit improved to Yen 4 million from Yen 1 million a year ago.

 

For the term ended Aug 2007 the net profit was projected and believed posted at Yen 5 million, on a 6% rise in turnover, to Yen 900 million.  Imports increased.  Weaker Yen should have helped to uplift sales amount in Yen terms.

 

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  The proposed amount, however, is considered TOO HIGH for one lot payment from the recent financial status.  It would be feasible if broken down into several payments.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 21.6 million, on 30 days normal terms.
