COMMENT    

 

TRADING HOUSE SPECIALIZING IN INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY FROM GERMANY.

 

FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

 

                       

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established originally in 1948 by Claus Correns, ex Tokyo Branch Manager of Hamburg Siemens Co, under the name of C Correns & Co Ltd as an open partnership.  After his retirement in 1980, the company was transferred to Arthur von Eisenhalf-Rothe, who subsequently retired in Dec 1997, thereafter succeeded by the present executives.  In Apr 1998 renamed as captioned.  This is a trading firm specializing in industrial machinery centrally from Germany (See OPERATIONS).  Also handles electronics parts & components, printers & other computer peripherals.  The business line includes technical services, license agreement and joint ventures.  Sales staff is mostly technical engineers.  The firm has concluded more than 90 license agreements (See OPERATION).

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Dec/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 10,704 million, an 11% down from Yen 12,083 million in the previous term.  High Yen against US Dollars and Euro hurt export earnings & profits in Yen terms, although exports volumes were normal & steady.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 211 million and the net profit at Yen 125 million, respectively, compared with Yen 164 million recurring profit and Yen 164 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

For the current term ending Dec 2012 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 220 million and the net profit at Yen 130 million, respectively, on a 3% rise in turnover, to Yen 11,000 million.  Business is seen steadily expanding. 

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.
