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.

COMMENT    

 

TRADING FIRM OF INDUSTRIAL/CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY 

FINANCIAL SITUATION COSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

 

                        Unit: In Million Yen

Forecast figures for the 30/11/2013 fiscal term.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

This is a midsize independent trading company dealing in industrial/construction machinery.  30% of products sold to carmakers.  Looking to go into environmental field.  Has strong competitive edge based on direct sales to users.  Global network comprised more than 10 sales offices in the US and Asia.  The company acquired an engineering firm of the US in Oct 2012, and aims to reinforce capacities to meet the needs of local consumers.  It won a long-term order from a Japanese firm slated to enter Malaysia, including for post-entry supply of consumables.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Nov/2012 fiscal term amounted to Yen 41,968 million, a 29% up from Yen 32,432 million in the previous term.   The acquired US firm contributed for one month.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 2,495 million and the net profit at Yen 1,366 million, respectively, compared with Yen 1,229 million recurring profit and Yen 679 million net profit, respectively, a year ago. 

 

(Dec/2012-Feb/2013 results): Sales 10,205 million (up 8.2%), operating profit Yen 409 million (down 22.5%), recurring profit Yen 526 million (down 10.7%), net profit Yen 255 million (down 11.1%).  (% compared with the corresponding period a year ago).

           

For the current term ending Nov 2013 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 2,550 million and the net profit at Yen 1,350 million, on a 5% rise in turnover, to Yen 44,000 million.  Sales of aircraft in North America, and automobile-related in Asia will continue growth.  The Mexico production base supplying Japanese automakers will also contribute.  Construction machinery will benefit from an upturn in crane sales, backed by the restoration reconstruction demand. 

 

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