Sirve basicamente para ver como les va el negocio, hacia donde piensan ir con su gama de producto, en que vana invertir, etc.... Suele ser interesante.
Nornmalmente suele ir acompañadoo de una memoria importante con gran cantidad de información, que es lo que busco ahora...
Cosas que a mí me interesasn, como por ejemplo:
Consolidated Financial Statements: Year Ended 31 March 2009
The watch business reported sales of 93.5 billion yen (a 20.2% decline from the
previous year) and operating income of 1.6 billion yen (an 81.3% decline from the
previous year). In Japan,
reinforcing sales of high-priced products was made a
priority, but the rapid decline in personal consumption starting in the third quarter
caused a drop in sales. Under these circumstances, the Company expanded the
lineup of high added value,
multifunction radio-wave controlled watches that
retail for around hundred thousand yen, successfully raising sales. Overseas, the
Company continued to promote its “innovation and refinement” brand vision and
worked to increase sales through higher brand value, but both sales and income
were down, particularly in Europe and the United States, because of the global
recession starting in the third quarter.
Esto incluye sus marcas Seiko, Credor, Alba para Japon y Seiko, Pulsar, Alba, Lorus para el mercado exterior. Mucha gente no sabe que estas ultimas marcas son SEIKO.
Basicamente, que no les ha ido nada bien en la gama alta y apretan de nuevo con los radiocontrolados. Si a los suizos les va mal, no parece que a ellos les vaya mejor
