FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Sept/2007 fiscal term for irregular 9 months due to change in accounting term from Jan/Dec to Oct/Sept amounted to Yen 6,614 million, a 15% down (as adjusted on a 12-month basis) from Yen 10,338 million in the previous term.  This is referred to the slowdown of semiconductor demand from over-supply of the products due to competition among the trade.  The net profit was posted at Yen 281 million, compared with Yen 195 million a year ago.  ^.

 

For the term just ended Sept 2008 the net profit was projected at Yen 300 million, on a similar turnover, at Yen 8,800 million.  Market remained still weak. 

           

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.       Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 117.3 million, on 30 days normal terms.  We recommend secured terms on new transactions.
