COMMENT    

 

SHIP OWNER & OPERATOR AND AGENCY BUSINESS.

 

FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

                       

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 80.8 MILLION, 30 DAYS NORMAL TERMS.  .

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

           

The subject company was established by Yue Li, resident Chinese, in order to make most of his previous experience in the shipping business.  This is a ship owner and operator of a total 12 vessels, plying between Japan/China, Korea and S/E Asia.  Originally started as a ship agency business and has expanded its operations into other areas.  In Apr 1999, started ship chartering business; in Oct 2002 owned first vessel & started tramper business.  The firm has now five divisions: ship chartering team, ship owning and operating team (owning 12 vessels); ship agency team; export/import team (steel products, mechanical materials, plastic & raw materials); ship service team (ship sales/purchases, ship material supply).  Recently extended operations into Russia and vicinities areas.  Domestic clients include major trading firms, shipping companies, mfrs, other, nationwide.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2010 fiscal term amounted to Yen 5,084 million, a 9% down from Yen 5,575 million in the previous term, as substantially affected by the global economic downturn.  Shipments into and from China declined to a large extent.  High Yen hurt revenues in Yen terms.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 46 million and the net profit at Yen 24 million, respectively, compared with Yen 57 million recurring profit and Yen 12 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

For the term just ended Mar 2011 the recurring profit was projected at Yen 50 million and the net profit at Yen 25 million, on a 4% rise in turnover, to Yen 5,300 million.  Transportation needs revived from & into China to robust degree.  Chartering of ships recovered to transport cargoes more than the capacity of owned vessels.  Final results are yet to be released.

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 80.8 million, on 30 days normal terms.
