Company Report

Casio's Margin Expansion Is Slower Due to Sluggish Watch Sales and Restructuring Delays

Casio Computer is a consumer electronic company that is focused on differentiating itself by selling niche devices at an affordable price. Casio established its identity by launching Casio Mini, known as the first personal calculator, in 1972; it replicated this success in 1995 with QV-10, the world’s first digital camera with an LCD display, and in 2002 with EX-S1, the first digital camera to achieve business-card size. Casio is also known for producing tough and functional wristwatches under the G-Shock brand name, which arrived in 1983.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Casio has established a reputation for providing tough and reliable watches at affordable prices in Asia, and will continue benefiting from the growth of the region.

Bears

Smartphones can substitute for some features of consumer products, such as digital cameras, calculators, and electronic dictionaries; thus, revenue from those products will continue to decrease.
