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.

Further, the company also provides auto leasing and financing services through its Mitsubishi Motors Credit of America (US) and Diamond Finance Corp. A broad product and brand portfolio helps the company cater to a diversified customer base, which in turn mitigates the various risks associated with the overdependence on a particular product segment.

 

Global Diversity

Wide geographic presence helps Mitsubishi cater to a diversified customer base and generate higher revenues. The company sells its products in more than 160 countries worldwide. It operates seven car manufacturing facilities in five countries, eight engine parts manufacturing facilities in five countries and 12 business partners’ car manufacturing facilities in 11 countries and regions. Additionally, Mitsubishi operates through 54 consolidated subsidiaries, two equity method subsidiaries and 24equity method affiliates. For the fiscal year ended 2012, the company’s retail sales volume totaled 1,001,000 units, with 152,000 units from Japan, 106,000 units from North America, 218,000 units from Europe and 525,000 units from Asia and Other regions. For the fiscal year ended 2012, the company generated 26.27% from Europe, 21.87% from Asia, 19.76% from Japan, 12.33% from others, 10.8% from North America and 8.97% from Oceania. Such wide geographic acts as an easy way for the expansion plans of the company, as wider reach in terms of geography would mean reaping more benefits.

 

Strong Research and Development Base

Mitsubishi has strong research and development infrastructure. It has a strong focus on research and development activities. It has six research and development and design facilities in three countries. Mitsubishi’s research and development continuously focuses on enhancing distinctive the company’s technologies and further developing environmental technologies. The latest technologies developed by the company include S-AWC (Super All Wheel Control), Twin Clutch SST (Twin Clutch Sport Shift Transmission) and MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control system). For the fiscal l year ended 2012, the company spent JPY34,996m on its research and development activities. Various new products launched by the company in 2011, include new MINICAB-MiEV Commercial Electric Vehicle in Japan, Next-generation MIVEC engine and improved "Auto Stop&Go" Idle-stop system, new Delica D:3 Minivan and Delica Van Light Commercial Vehicle in Japan, the i-MiEV new-generation electric vehicle in two trim levels and Delica D:2 New Compact Minivan. In 2012, the company intends to launch new models such as expand roll out of new Mirage, new Outlander, PHEV based on the new Outlander and Mini-truck EV. The company intends to launch seven models of EV/PHEV/HEV vehicles during 2014-2016. Such strong research and development focus enables the company to offer best in engine, control, transmission and other vehicle technologies and maintain competitive position.

 

Weaknesses

 

Decreased Sales from Japan

Mitsubishi recorded decreased sales in its domestic market (Japan) in 2011, compared to the other geographies in which it operates. In Japan, net sales accounted for JPY1,515.2 billion, a decrease of 42.1 billion yen or 3% over fiscal 2010. This decrease was due to lower unit sales and impact of the strong yen. Mitsubishi could overcome the market challenges such as expected low economic growth rate and increased number of imported cars in Korea, through the launch of new products. The company intends to improve its sales in the domestic market through the launch of diverse new cars and stronger sales prowess.

 

Product Recalls

Product recalls, apart from draining the profits, will affect the reputation of the company and can result in loss of market share. Mitsubishi intends to recall several of its products driven by different issues. In July 2012, the company will voluntarily recall a total of 93,584 minivehicles equipped with turbo engines because of possible engine trouble. In January 2012, the company recalled around almost 300,000 kei-class small cars in Japan due to engine oil leaks. Such product recalls will affect the company’s brand image and adversely affect its sales.

 

Opportunities

 

Fuel Efficient Vehicles

The company is one of the major manufacturer of product related to electrical energy generation and management, and engine ignition, therefore the company could find increased opportunities in the area of fuel efficient vehicles which feature advanced technologies such as hybrids, clean diesel engines, flexible-fuel ethanol vehicles and a turbocharged direct injection system. According to Energy Information Administration (US Government), the sale of unconventional vehicles (hybrid) accounts for 40% of the total Light Duty Vehicles (LDV) sales. The total sale of hybrid vehicles is estimated to increase from 2.3% of new LDV sales in 2007 to 20.6%, and 39.6% by 2015 and 2030, respectively. It is forecast that the sales of hybrid vehicles could reach 7.9 million in 2030. Various automobile manufacturers, such as Chrysler, Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes, among others, are involved in research projects related to hybrid vehicles, working to revamp their fleet; Ford conducts research related to direct injection, turbo and variable valve;. Toyota continues to focus on its plans to make hybrids available across its fleet; GM is strengthening its product line up with the reintroduction of electric vehicle with its plug-in hybrid Volt; and Nissan is also leaning on electric vehicle introduction. Thus, with unconventional and hybrid vehicles likely to become the mainstay in the future automobile market, the company could find huge opportunities to garner higher market share and increase its revenue.

 

Strategic Collaborations

The company would benefit from its new strategic collaborations. In December 2011, the company in collaboration with EIDAIKAKO Co., Ltd., MRC Pylen Co., Ltd. and Toyota Tsusho Corporation developed a new floor mat using plant-based bio-polyethylene (bio-PE) fiber which could be added in its proprietary plant-based "Green Plastic" product line. In September 2011, the company and PROTON Holdings Berhad announced their plans to enter into a strategic collaboration to produce engines in Malaysia jointly. In September 2011, the company and Motor Co., Ltd. expanded their OEM supply agreements in the Japanese market. In September 2011, Mitsubishi and Mitsubishi Motors Thailand Co., Ltd. and the company’s subsidiary in Thailand agreed to start joint testing of i-MiEV new-generation electric vehicle with PTT Public Company Limited (PTT) in Thailand. In August 2011, Mitsubishi, ROLF Import, the company’s exclusive distributor for the Russian market, and the Government of the Kaluga Region entered into a collaboration to improve the natural environment of the Kaluga region. In July 2011, the company and Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. entered into an agreement to manufacture the current generation Nissan Navara, a one-ton pickup truck, at the company’s plant in the Laem Chabang Industrial Estate in Thailand. The production is scheduled to commence in 2012. In June 2011, NMKV Co., Ltd, a new joint venture formed by the company and Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. announced to develop minicars for the Japanese market. The company’s new initiative would enable it to catch the market trends and avail several new growth avenues

 

Capacity Expansion

The company accomplished capacity expansion initiatives to cater to the rising demand for its products in the major markets it serves. In July 2012, the company started the production of the Outlander Sport 1 compact crossover at Mitsubishi Motors North America's 2 (MMNA) plant in Normal, Illinois, the US. The company’s joint venture assembly plant, PCMA Rus started a full-scale production in July 2012. In April 2012, the company started the full production of its all-new Mirage "global compact car" it’s Laem Chabang Plant in Thailand. In April 2012, the company began the operation of "M-tech Labo,1" a smart grid demonstration system which utilizes rechargeable batteries in Electric Vehicles for electric-demand leveling of factory facilities. The company started the production and sales of its Outlander Sport during the first half of 2012. In October 2011, the company started the production of the North American version of it’s i-MiEV new-generation electric vehicle at its Mizushima Plant. In August 2011, the company started the local production of its new-model Pajero Sport SUV in Bangladesh.

 

Threats

 

Natural and other Disasters

The company’s key market and manufacturing base is Japan which is prone to several natural disasters like earthquakes, typhoons, tsunamis, and volcanic activities. The company maintains production and other facilities in Japan and other parts of the world. The occurrence of disasters, such as earthquakes, typhoons, fires and infectious diseases, in these areas could result in the suspension or other serious interruption of the company’s operations. Such events could interrupt the company's manufacturing activities, damage equipment, disrupt access to water and electricity, and cause many problems that could have significant effect on business and operating results. The threat is higher from the frequency of earthquakes. Even then, the precautionary measures employed may not be successful in major disasters. The company needs to scatter its operations over relatively safer geographical locations to ensure uninterrupted business operations.

 

Competitive Pressures

The automotive industry is highly competitive. Intense competition and overcapacity of automotive industry have already led to the price wars among the players. This resulted in increased necessity of sales incentives and sales promotion efforts. Sales incentives could potentially reduce selling prices of new vehicles. The use of sales incentives may result in low resale values in the used car market and that of vehicles returned at the end of leases. The decline in residual values could affect adversely the car and lease assets held as collateral in the sales-finance unit. Its key competitors include Isuzu Motors, Kia Motors, Honda Motor Co and Toyota Motor. Such intense competition could hamper the growth prospects of the company.

 

Emissions Control

Japan has emissions regulations for motorcycles, which is applicable to all types of engine displacement. Some aspects of these regulations, such as standards for hydro-carbon levels and durability, are stricter than the current European regulations, namely the Euro3 regulations. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MLIT) introduced the Worldwide Harmonized Motorcycle Emissions Certification Procedure (WMTC) and its applicable standards in 2010. It will apply to new models from October 1, 2012. In the US, emissions regulations for off-road motorcycles and ATVs were introduced in 2006. The EPA adopted the current California emissions standards for on-road motorcycles on a national basis, two years behind California. The new regulations include fuel permeation requirements rather than traditional evaporative emission standards. The EPA introduced more stringent exhaust standards and new evaporative emission standards for fuel tanks and fuel lines that are used in small non-road engines. Europe maintains emissions regulations (Euro3) for motorcycles, and the 'Motor Cycle (& Moped) Whole Vehicle Type Approval (WVTA)', a uniform certification system for two and three-wheeled motor vehicles. The Euro3 regulations are the most stringent class standard for motorcycles. Euro3 regulations have been in effect from January 2006. The European Commission introduced a recast proposal of WVTA which contains Euro4, Euro5 and Euro6 stage regulations. The company could face increased challenges due to the imposition of new emission and safety standards in various countries.
