HIGHLIGHTS

           

The subject company was established on the basis of a ship broking & management division separated from Sanko Steamship Co Ltd (See REGISTRATION) as Eastern Shipping Co Ltd.  Originally started as marine transporter of logs/timber and ship management/broking of foreign flag ships chartered by the parent, Sanko Steamship Co.  On 13/Aug/1985, the firm bankrupted with liabilities Yen 26,000 million and sought for protection from creditors under the Corporate Rehabilitation Law.  Reactivated in 1986, and in 1989 merged a sister company, Sanko Marine Co Ltd, and in Oct 2002 renamed as captioned.  The firm manages 42 foreign flag vessels operated and chartered by the parent,   Operating vessels of the parent is: 195 vessels of 12.857,157 million DWT.  The parent, Sanko Steamship Co Ltd, declared bankruptcy on 15/03/2012 and initiated out-of-court settlement with creditors as high payments to ship owners bleed away cash flow at a time when freight revenues are languishing.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Mar/2011 fiscal term amounted to Yen 10,988 million, a 6% down from Yen 11,740 million in the previous term.  Shipping market was down.  Freight rates dropped.  Handling vessels decreased to 42 from 47 vessels.  The net profit was posted at Yen 139 million, compared with Yen 430 million a year ago.  .

 

For the current term ending Mar 2012 the net profit is projected at Yen 110 million, on a 9% fall in turnover, to Yen 10,000 million.  This is only forecasted and due to the bankruptcy of the parent, Sanko Steamship Co Ltd, this may not be materialized.

           

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  The proposed amount, however, is considered TOO HIGH from the recent financial status and the bankruptcy of the parent.  Max credit limit is considered at Yen 229.7 million, on 30 days, recommending NO CREDITS.
