Japanese 5 Major Electric Wire Makers Mark Increases Both in Sales and Profit
Regarding Japanese 7 major electric wire makers' consolidated settlement in fiscal 2004, the year that ended in March 2005, the 5 makers marked increases both in their sales and profit from the previous fiscal year. Thanks to brisk demand of cars and digital home appliances a well as effects of structural reforms of businesses by the 3 makers, they recovered to the net surplus. On the other hand, dullness of the domestic demand of optical fiber cables, inability to completely shift to the selling prices of electric wires and cables from a rise of copper market price, and exchange loss by the stronger yen, etc. cast a shadow over the profit and loss.
