JAPAN - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

In the years following World War II, government-industry cooperation, a strong work ethic, mastery of high technology, and a comparatively small defense allocation (1% of GDP) helped Japan develop a technologically advanced economy. Two notable characteristics of the post-war economy were the close interlocking structures of manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors, known as keiretsu, and the guarantee of lifetime employment for a substantial portion of the urban labor force. Both features are now eroding under the dual pressures of global competition and domestic demographic change. Japan's industrial sector is heavily dependent on imported raw materials and fuels. A tiny agricultural sector is highly subsidized and protected, with crop yields among the highest in the world. Usually self-sufficient in rice, Japan imports about 60% of its food on a caloric basis. Japan maintains one of the world's largest fishing fleets and accounts for nearly 15% of the global catch. For three decades, overall real economic growth had been spectacular - a 10% average in the 1960s, a 5% average in the 1970s, and a 4% average in the 1980s. Growth slowed markedly in the 1990s, averaging just 1.7%, largely because of the after effects of inefficient investment and an asset price bubble in the late 1980s that required a protracted period of time for firms to reduce excess debt, capital, and labor. Measured on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis that adjusts for price differences, Japan in 2011 stood as the fourth-largest economy in the world after second-place China, which surpassed Japan in 2001, and third-place India, which edged out Japan in 2011. A sharp downturn in business investment and global demand for Japan's exports in late 2008 pushed Japan further into recession. Government stimulus spending helped the economy recover in late 2009 and 2010, but the economy contracted again in 2011 as the massive 9.0 magnitude earthquake in March disrupted manufacturing. Electricity supplies remain tight because Japan has temporarily shut down almost all of its nuclear power plants after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors were crippled by the earthquake and resulting tsunami. Estimates of the direct costs of the damage - rebuilding homes, factories, and infrastructure - range from $235 billion to $310 billion, and GDP declined almost 0.5% in 2011. Prime Minister Yoshihiko NODA has proposed opening the agricultural and services sectors to greater foreign competition and boosting exports through membership in the US-led Trans-Pacific Partnership trade talks and by pursuing free-trade agreements with the EU and others, but debate continues on restructuring the economy and reining in Japan's huge government debt, which exceeds 200% of GDP. Persistent deflation, reliance on exports to drive growth, and an aging and shrinking population are other major long-term challenges for the economy.

HIGHLIGHTS

 

This is a leading mfr of commercial-use kitchen systems & equipment.  School meal catering and cooked rice processors are among major customers.  Active mainly in Osaka area.  MacDonald Holdings & Saizeriya are listed as one of its major clients.  Has strength in system equipment, including automatic rice-cooking system.  In Nov 2007 merged a subsidiary, Kuruwa Co Ltd, to make it International Trading Division, for importing kitchen system & equipment from Europe, USA, other.  The firm participated in school meal catering business for utilizing private capital, managerial skill & technology.  In school lunch centers, the firm is trying to differentiate them with large scale centralized cooking systems.  No litigation, liens or protest is heard.  The firm will pursue an ecological feature with large rice cooker for lunch caters using an IH cooking heater.  It will promote disinfection storage equipment for kitchen knives and cutting boards, which is manufactured at its own plant, together with sterilizing cabinet. 

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

 

            The sales volume for Mar/2012 fiscal term amounted to Yen 18,335 million, a 10% down from Yen 20,374 million in the previous term.  Large-lot orders from restaurants were absent, while orders from school lunch caters bounced back on getting out of the impact of the Earthquake and bounced back.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 825 million and the net profit at Yen 325 million, respectively, compared with Yen 774 million recurring profit and Yen 269 million net profit, respectively, a year ago. 

 

            (Apr/Jun/2012 results): Sales Yen 2,610 million (down 9.1%), operating loss Yen 364 million (previously Yen 221 million loss), recurring loss Yen 337 million (previously Yen 194 million loss), net loss Yen 242 million (previously Yen 130 million loss).  (% & figures compared with the corresponding period a year ago). 

           

            For the current term ending Mar 2013 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 1,000 million and the net profit at Yen 530 million, respectively, on an 11.8% rise in turnover, to Yen 20,500 million.  Sales of products for school lunch centers will rapidly expand, thanks to renewed demand, which delayed due to the Earthquake disaster.  Those of products for hospitals and nursing care will also fare well.  Program to develop market for restaurants and lunch caterers will progress.  The release of new environment-friendly large energy-saving products will contribute to earnings.  Efforts to raise the in-house production ratio and curb personnel expenses will contribute.

           

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