Subaru’s Sales Boom Thanks to the Weaker Yen
For the Japanese carmaker Subaru, a sharp fall in the value of the
yen against the U.S. dollar has turned a problem—the lack of U.S.
production—into an unexpected sales boom. Subaru, which is a niche
player in the global auto industry, has long bucked the trend among
its Japanese rivals of establishing significant manufacturing
facilities in the North American market. Instead, the company has
chosen to concentrate most of its manufacturing in Japan in order
to achieve economies of scale at its home plants, exporting its
production to the United States. Subaru still makes 80 percent of
its vehicles at home, compared with 21 percent for Honda.
Back in 2012, this strategy was viewed as something of a liability. In those days, 1 U.S. dollar bought only 80 Japanese yen. The strong yen meant that Subaru cars were being priced out of the U.S. market. Japanese companies like Honda and Toyota, which had substantial production in the United States, gained business at Subaru’s expense. But from 2012 onward, with Japan mired in recession and consumer prices falling, the country’s central bank repeatedly cut interest rates in an attempt to stimulate the economy. As interest rates fell in Japan, investors moved money out of the country, selling yen and buying the U.S. dollar. They used those dollars to invest in U.S. stocks and bonds, where they anticipated a greater return. As a consequence, the price of yen in terms of dollars fell. By December 2015, 1 dollar bought 120 yen, representing a 50 percent fall in the value of the yen against the U.S. dollar since 2012.
For Subaru, the depreciation in the value of the yen has given it a pricing advantage and driven a sales boom. Demand for Subaru cars in the United States has been so strong that the automaker has been struggling to keep up. The profits of Subaru’s parent company, Fuji Heavy Industries, have surged. In February 2015, Fuji announced that it would earn record operating profits of around ¥410 billion ($3.5 billion U.S.) for the financial year ending March 2015. Subaru’s profit margin has increased to 14.4 percent, compared with 5.6 percent for Honda, a company that is heavily dependent on U.S. production. The good times continued in 2015, with Subaru posting record profits in the quarter ending December 31, 2015.
Despite its current pricing advantage, Subaru is moving to increase its U.S. production. It plans to expand its sole plant in the United States, in Indiana, by March 2017, with a goal of making 310,000 a year, up from 200,000 currently. When asked why it is doing this, Subaru’s management notes that the yen will not stay weak against the dollar forever, and it is wise to expand local production as a hedge against future increases in the value of the yen. Indeed, when the Bank of Japan decided to set a key interest rate below zero in early February 2016, the yen started to appreciate against the U.S. dollar, presumably on expectations that negative interest rates would finally help stimulate Japan’s sluggish economy. By late March 2016, the yen had appreciated against the dollar and was trading at $1 = ¥112.
Question 1: As Subaru expands into different countries, we will face increased foreign currency risk. Discuss different modes of currency risk and how each should be managed.
Question 2: When evaluating which foreign markets to serve, Subaru must consider certain variables that influence the location-specific costs and benefits of serving those markets. Identify several of the most important variables to consider and the implications of each on potential profitability.
Question 3: As Subaru implements it international operations, we will need to consider to what degree we delegate decision making to our foreign subsidiaries. Explain several advantages and disadvantages of centralized versus decentralized decision making.
Question 4: What are some of the most important considerations we should evaluate to best configure our production and supply chain operations. Provide specific details for each consideration.
Question 5: Discuss political, economic and legal criteria to
assess the attractiveness of doing business in different
country-specific locations.
