Business Overview:

 

The US plastic and rubber products manufacturing industry includes about 16,000 companies with combined annual revenue of $215 billion. Because plastic products are widely used in industry as consumer products, demand depends on the health of the US economy. The profitability of individual companies depends on product mix and production efficiency. Large companies have economies of scale in buying raw materials and in manufacturing commodity products such as bottles and plastic film. Small companies can compete effectively by specializing.

Financials - COMMERCIAL TRENDS AND FORECAST

 

The subject is a public company traded at the stock exchange. Please find enclosed the financial statements.

Legal Fillings

There are several UCC files listed with the Secretary of State of Ohio.

 

The company is defendant in various pending lawsuits and proceedings and is subject to various other claims arising in the normal course of its business. Although the outcome of these lawsuits and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty at this time, it is believed that the ultimate disposition of such suits will not have a material adverse effect on the company.

 

The last annual report was filed on 18-Feb-10.

 

For information:

 

The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is one of a number of uniform acts that have been promulgated in conjunction with efforts to harmonize the law of sales and other commercial transactions in all 50 states within the United States of America. 

 

The UCC deals primarily with transactions involving personal property (movable property), not real property (immovable property).

 

It allows a creditor to notify other creditors about a debtors assets used as collateral for a secured transaction by filing a public notice (financing statement) with a particular filing office.

 

The Uniform Commercial Code Bureau files and maintains on financial obligations (including IRS liens) incurred by individuals (in business as a sole proprietor), business entities and corporations.

 

 

Rating

 

Local credit bureau gave a correct credit rate.

 

The company is in Good Standing. This means that all local and federal taxes were paid on due date

 Final Opinion

 

This is a big size company with several years in the industry.

 

Looking at the company's consolidating, we can see that the company had losses in 2008.

However, from 2009 until 2010, the company's income is increasing.

 

As of today, the profitability is correct but the debt level is still high.

 

 

At this time, we believe that the company can bear a credit line in the range of 200,000 USD.

 

We suggest making a follow- up report within 9 months to monitor the company's debt level evolution.
