The sales volume for the initial fiscal term for 6 months from the start of operations ending Mar/2007amounted to Yen 1,243 million, posting Yen 1,430 million recurring loss and Yen 1,446 million net losses, respectively.  This is referred to the heavy investment costs and operations.  The net worth is reportedly at Yen 3,518 million, Yen 1,482 million short of paid-in capital.

 

For the term just ended Mar 2008 the sales turnover was projected at Yen 2,700 million for 12 months, up 9% as adjusted on a 12-month basis from the previous term.  The profits were not officially mentioned but are believed remained in the deficit due to heavy costs of investment & depreciation.  Some say around Yen 1,000 million net losses, but this remains to be confirmed.

 

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 35.2 million, on 30 days normal terms.
