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.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The sales volume
for Mar/2013 fiscal term amounted to Yen 6,304,353 million, a 6.6% up from Yen
5,916,759 million in the previous term.
The global economy was generally sluggish amid a protracted sovereign
debt crisis in Europe, slowdown in Chinese economic growth, and deceleration in
the US economy. However, Europe’s
financial sector stabilized, the Chinese economy has started t show signs of
gradual recovery, and the US economy is regaining momentum driven by household
sector recovery. Operating profits rose
25.4% attributable mainly to growth in gross profits. By Divisions, Metals up 2.3% to Yen 38,800
million; Machinery & Electronics up 2.4% to Yen 1,254,400 million;
Automotives up 16.9% to Yen 781,900 million; Energy & Chemicals up 16.5% to
Yen 1,324,800 million; Foodstuffs up 6.7% to Yen 290,200 million. The recurring profit was posted at Yen
124,814 million and the net profit at Yen 67,432 million, respectively,
compared with Yen 115,110 million recurring profit and Yen 66,205 million net
profit, respectively, a year ago.
(Apr/Jun/2013 results): Sales Yen 1,896,469 million (up 15.6%),
operating profit Yen 40,915 million (up 55.3%), recurring profit Yen 46,069
million (up 21.8%), net profit Yen 21,779 million (down 3.9%) (% compared with the corresponding period a
year ago).
For the current term ending Mar 2014 the recurring profit is projected
at Yen 162,000 million and the net profit at Yen 71,000 million, on a 19% rise
in turnover, to Yen 7,500 million.
Exports of vehicles and parts will grow, backed by increased automobile
production. Automobile production facilities
in North America and S/E Asia will expand.
The conversion of a leading French trading company to a subsidiary will
also contribute to earnings. The company
will easily absorb the downturn in petroleum products, and operating profit
will continue growing.
The financial situation is considered FAIR to EXCELLENT and good for ORDINARY
business engagements.
