FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Jul/2007 fiscal term amounted to Yen 2,070 million, a 30% hike from Yen 1,600 million in the previous term.  This is referred to the price hike of garments from stronger Euro, which boosted sales in Yen terms.  The net profit decreased to Yen 60 million from Yen 75 million a year ago.  Higher costs of operations worsened the profits.

 

For the current term ending Jul 2008 the net profit is projected at Yen 65 million, on a 6% rise in turnover, to Yen 2,200 million.

           

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.            Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 38.4 million, on 30 days normal terms.
