FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 52,309 million, an 8% up from Yen 48,438 million in the previous term.  Supply constituted the highest percentage of sales, while storage & memory remained roughly unchanged, due to relatively low sales contribution partly due to the firm having once pulled out of the business due to inventory control issues.  The firm reentered the segment in the mid-200s, yet occupies a relatively low share in the industry.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 5,369 million and the net profit at Yen 2,777 million, respectively, compared with Yen 3,591 million recurring profit and Yen 735 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

(Apr/Dec/2011 results): Sales Yen 46,482 million (up 21.4%), operating profit Yen 5,493 million (up 26.6%), recurring profit Yen 5,099 million (up 26.7%), net profit Yen 2,127 million (up 6.4%).  (% compared with the corresponding period a year ago).  Sales of peripheral equipment & accessories, such as smartphone charges, are growing sharply.

 

For the term that ended Mar 2012 the recurring profit was projected at Yen 5,800 million and the net profit at Yen 2,950 million, on an 11% rise in turnover, to Yen 58,000 million.  Sales of peripheral equipment grew sharply.  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 830.7 million, on 30 days normal terms.
