The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 767 million, a 10% down from Yen 850 million in the previous term.  The net profit was posted at Yen 86 million, compared with Yen 3 million a year ago.  The firm had been in deficit for two years, 2007 & 2008, from heavy investment costs on GPS equipment.  .

 

For the current term ending Mar 2012 the net profit is projected at Yen 95 million, on an 11% rise in turnover, to Yen 850 million.  Sales of GPS measurement instruments account for about 70% of total sales.  Demand is growing fast.
