FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2008 fiscal term amounted to Yen 8,080 million, an 11% drop from Yen 9,050 million in the previous term.  Price competition hurt the sales growth.  The operations dipped in the red to register Yen 195 million recurring profit and Yen 196 net losses for the term.  Inventory adjustment was the major reason for the losses.  This compares with Yen 67 million recurring profit and Yen 47 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

For the current term ending Mar 2009 the operations are projected to come back to profitability to post Yen 45 million net profit, on a 1.5% rise in turnover, to Yen 8,200 million.

           

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.            Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 275.7 million, on 30 days normal terms.
