FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

            The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 41,626 million, a 1.4% down from Yen 42,199 million in the previous term.  Sales decreased slightly, thanks to the increased sales of high margin products during the first quarter, along with the effect of continuous cost reduction measures.  By Divisions, Plastic Material Processing Div down 1.4% to Yen 27,844 million;  Paper Processed Products Div down 1.3% to Yen 13,685 million.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 2,484 million and the net profit at Yen 1,725 million, respectively, compared with Yen 1,204 million recurring profit and Yen 390 million net profits, respectively, a year ago. 

           

            For the current term ending Mar 2012 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 1,800 million and the net profit at Yen 1,100 million, respectively, on an 8.7% fall in turnover, to Yen 38,000 million.  The firm says that the decreased sales projections are based on the consideration of probable downside risks, such as an unstable supply chain or shortages of electricity as affected by the recent North Japan Earthquake. 

 

            The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.           

Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 743.3 million, on 30 days normal terms.
