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.

Unit: In Million Yen
Forecast (or estimated) figures for
31/03/2014 fiscal term
The
subject company was established originally in 1590 when Sumitomo family smelted
copper in Kyoto and was incorporated in 1950.
This is top-class comprehensive smelter of nonferrous metals including
copper, nickel and gold. Leader in
overseas mining with stakes in mining projects in Indonesia, Chile, Australia
and elsewhere. Sales ratio of nickel and
gold high in nonferrous metal division.
Its Hishikari gold mine in Kyushu has largest domestic output. Fostering electronic materials/parts and home
building material divisions into mainstays.
The firm increased investment in copper mine in Chile, slated to start
operation in 2014, to 3.9 billion dollars from 2.9 billion dollars, reflecting
rising construction cost. It plans
commercialization of collection business for rare earth scandium in 2015.
The sales
volume for Mar/2013 fiscal term amounted to Yen 808,540 million, a 4.6% down
from Yen 847,897 million in the previous term.
Demand for smelting was solid. Valuation
loss on inventory expanded sharply, seriously affected by a
faster-than-expected decrease in nickel prices.
Profitability on resource development at an overseas copper mine
deteriorated rapidly. The recurring
profit was posted at Yen 115,034 million and net profit at Yen 86,640 million,
respectively, compared with Yen 108,829 million recurring profit and Yen 65,286
million net profit, respectively, a year ago.
(Apr/June/2013 results): Sales Yen 210,503
million (up 2.9%), operating profit Yen 20,220 million (down 1.2%), recurring
profit Yen 31,501 million (up 49.5%), net proit Yen 23,271 million (up
36.9%). (% compared with the
corresponding period a year ago.)
For
the current term ending Mar 2014 the recurring profit is projected at Yen
106,000 million and net profit at Yen 74,000 million, respectively, on a 7.8%
rise in turnover, to Yen 872,000 million.
The resource and smelting divisions are boosted by Yen’s
depreciation. But international prices
of copper, nickel and gold are falling.
The
financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business
engagements.
