HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by Taiyo Fishery group originally as Azuma Boeki KK for exporting farm/fishery products and non-life insurance broking.  In 1953, licensed as importer of petroleum products.  After merging several sister firms, renamed as captioned in 1963 to focus on petroleum trading business.  In 1988, launched crude oil/oil products transportation business by large-sized tankers.  In 1989, advanced into chemical tanker operations (total 11 chemical tankers operated).  This is a trading house having 5 divisions: Petroleum Div, Materials Div, Shipping Div, Insurance Broking Div, and Real Estate Div (See OPERATION for details).  The Petroleum Div accounts for about 60% of total sales.  Operates 15 subsidiaries domestically and two overseas: New York & Singapore.  Domestic major clients are oil refiners both on the supply and sales. 

           

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

            The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 82,547 million, a 23% up from Yen 67,357 million in the previous term.  Sales returned to the normal level after having been substantially affected by the global economic downturn in the previous term.  The growth is also attributed to the price hike of petroleum products.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 478 million and the net profit at Yen 285 million, respectively, compared with Yen 347 million recurring profit and Yen 186 million net profit, respectively, a year ago. 

 

For the current term ending Mar 2012 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 475 million and the net profit at Yen 280 million, respectively, on an almost similar turnover, at Yen 83,000 million.  High Yen will eat into profits in Yen terms.

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 840.3 million, on 30 days normal terms.
