COMMENT    

 

MFR OF CONSTRUCTION-USE CRANES 

 

FINANCIAL SITUATION COSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

                       

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 3,192.0 MILLION, 30 DAYS NORMAL TERMS

 

 

                        Forecast figures for the 31/03/2012 fiscal term.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

This is the largest mfr of construction-use cranes & truck cranes.  Particularly strong in rough terrain cranes.  Also top-ranked mfr of truck loader cranes, including loading & unloading cranes and aerial working vehicles.  Has 80 overseas offices/facilities worldwide.  More emphasis is placed on development of Latin American market.  The firm will strive to win orders for lucrative large cranes for oil production in North America and Middle East.  It is considering entering into India & Russia, in an anticipation of strong demand for products for urban construction.  The effect of the recent North Japan Earth quake: The firm suspended production at its Shido Plant for one week due primarily to parts supply shortage/delay as affected by the earthquake.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 89,807 million, a 13.9% down from Yen 104,251 million in the previous term.  Global economic downturn affected the sales.  Exports were hurt by the high Yen.  Demand almost halved down in Europe.  Overseas sales declined 31.9% from previously.  High Yen ate into profits.  The operations plunged into the red to register Yen 3,686 million recurring loss and Yen 6,722 million net losses, respectively, compared with Yen 297 million recurring profit and Yen 895 million net losses, respectively, a year ago.  Wrote off a total Yen 3,670 extraordinary losses coming from asset impairment losses and investment securities assessment losses. . 

           

For the current term ending Mar 2012 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 2,900 million and the net profit at Yen 1,800 million, on a 22.5% rise in turnover, to Yen 110,000 million.  Sales of cranes will rise due to carried-over shipment from the preceding term.  In the domestic market, demand for aerial working vehicles from rental firms will recover.  The recent North Japan Earthquake created additional acute demand for cranes.

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 3,192.0 million, on 30 days normal terms.
