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 small agricultural sector is highly subsidized and protected, with crop yields among the highest in the world. While self-sufficient in rice production, Japan imports about 60% of its food on a caloric basis. 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. Modest economic growth continued after 2000, but the economy has fallen into recession three times since 2008. A sharp downturn in business investment and global demand for Japan's exports in late 2008 pushed Japan 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 and the ensuing tsunami in March disrupted manufacturing. The economy has largely recovered in the two years since the disaster, but reconstruction in the Tohoku region has been uneven. Newly-elected Prime Minister Shinzo ABE has declared the economy his government's top priority; he has pledged to reconsider his predecessor's plan to permanently close nuclear power plants and is pursuing an economic revitalization agenda of fiscal stimulus and regulatory reform and has said he will press the Bank of Japan to loosen monetary policy. Measured on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis that adjusts for price differences, Japan in 2012 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 2012. The new government will continue a longstanding debate 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

 

MEAT PACKER 

 

FINANCIAL SITUATION COSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

                       

                        *..Unit: in Million Yen.  Forecast figures for the 29/02/2012 fiscal term.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

This is a meat packer of beef, pork and processed meat products based in Shizuoka.  Excels in development of own products, including fresh ham and delicatessen, semi-cooked foodstuffs and meatballs.  Also expanding into management of regional beer restaurants.  Formed comprehensive sales tie-up with Itoham Foods in 2009.  The company launched the first TV commercial of sausages in the Chukyo (great-Nagoya) area from Nov 2011 to the end of Jan 2012 to enhance the company recognition.  In no-operating account, equity-method profit on a chicken production company will improve.  In processed products, the company plans to mark up prices mainly of commercial-use products by about 10% after September 2013.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Feb/2013 fiscal term amounted to Yen 142,372 million, a 1.1% up from Yen 140,796f million in the previous term.  Sales of daily dishes and home-consumption sausages kept going strong.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 322 million and the net losses of Yen 221 million, respectively, compared with Yen 2,013 million recurring profit and Yen 1,359 million net profit, respectively, a year ago.

 

(Mar/Aug/2013 results): Sales Yen 69,162 million (down 1.2%), operating profit Yen 137 million (previously Yen 250 losses), recurring profit Yen 74 million (previously Yen 320 million losses), net losses Yen 158 million (previously Yen 401 million losses).  (% & figures compared with the corresponding period a year ago).

 

For the current term ending Feb 2014 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 2,000 million and the net profit at Yen 700 million, on a 5.4% rise in turnover, to Yen 150,000 million.  Pork & chicken market prices, sluggish in the preceding term, will be back on the recovery phase.  Meat profitability will improve by the reduced low-profitability transactions.  In sales of processed foods, including ham/sausages, soaring raw material prices may precede, but will be absorbed by price markups of some products after 2013.

 

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