HIGHLIGHTS

 

This is a major comprehensive heavy electric machinery mfr expanding operations in aerospace, ships/marine structures, industrial machinery/energy related fields, other.  Bought aerospace business from the then ailing Nissan Motor in 2000.  Highly competitive in aerospace and defense areas.  Largest mfr of aircraft jet engines for civil aircraft.  Has business alliance in shipbuilding with Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding and Kawasaki Heavy Industries.  Strong in large bridge projects including the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, linking Honshu Island and Shikoku Island.  Actively expanding into environmental sector such as garbage processing.  Has business tie-up with Ebara Corp, pump/air blower mfr, Tokyo, for garbage incineration and pumps.  Also has business alliance with Mitsui Engineering and Shipbuilding and Kawasaki Heavy Industries.  The firm is in the process of withdrawing from unprofitable operations to focus on growth areas such as aircraft engines, energy-related fields such as LNG, auto turbochargers on a global basis.  Pulled out of overseas cement project.  Resuming operation of Chita dock for possible construction of oil-producing equipment. 

 

(Recent news):  The firm announced the acquisition of shares of Hauzer Techno Coating BV (Germany), and made it a subsidiary.  IHI aims to expand IHI’s industrial furnaces related business  (vacuum heat treating furnaces, new material furnaces & gas carburizing furnaces), one of the businesses IHI is strengthening.  (Announcement was made on 23/Feb/2008 by the firm).

 

 

 

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2007 fiscal term amounted to Yen 1,234,81 million, a 9.6% up from Yen 1,127,075 million in the previous term.  Boilers, nuclear power-related and jet engines received larger orders.  By divisions, Energy and Plants up 13% to Yen 349,700 million, as coal burning boilers increased in USA & Europe in the wake of skyrocketing petroleum prices; Aerospace up 4% to Yen 257,300 million, due to increased demand for aircrafts & engines; Shipbuilding & Offshore up 14% to Yen 132,600 million, thanks to deliveries of 2 tankers, 4 container ships, 8 bulk carriers and one coastal ships (total 15 vessels), although new orders received decreased; Distribution System & Steel Structures up 10% to Yen 174,200 million; Machinery up 8% to Yen 175,900 million.  As a result, the recurring profit was posted at Yen 21,511 million and the net profit at Yen 15,825 million, respectively, compared with Yen 15,908 million recurring profit and Yen 5,283 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

(Apr/Sept/2007 results): Sales Yen 858,836 million (up 11.5%), operating loss Yen 47,563 million, recurring loss Yen 55,064 million, net profit Yen 11,223 million (up from losses).  (% compared with the corresponding period a year ago).  Two segments – Energy & Plants and Shipbuilding & Offshore operations – achieved turnarounds.  Operating losses came from mounting costs at its energy-related plant engineering business.  The net profits stemmed from extraordinary income of Yen 79,650 million from land & assets sales, to compensate actual losses. 

 

For the current term ending Mar 2008 the recurring loss is projected at Yen 25,000 million and the net profit at Yen 26,000 million, respectively, compared with Yen 21,511 million recurring profit and Yen 15,825 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.  New orders reaching Yen 13,000 million, down 4% from preceding term, affected by restraint in shipbuilding.  Steel-making machinery & superchargers remain extremely good.  Special profits (Yen 31,200 million) on sale of share in Toyosu redevelopment project gone.  Pulled out of overseas cement projects.

 

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max cedit limit is estimated at Yen 14,532.1 million, on 30 days normal terms.
