Strong brand that is revitalizing themselves. Looking to expand into India. If Tata Motors doesn't win that battle, it will be good for Nissan.

1. Favorable Weak Yen conditions are good for Japanese Exports
2. 2. US Big 3 Auto continue to lose market share while JAP Big 3 Auto gain share.
3. Energized new lineup expected soon for the strong 2nd half end of year sales; new Infiniti G35/G37 Coupes are getting better press than German counterpart 335i for the first time ever. Mainly because of affordability; performance is on a pretty much even keel with BMW 3 series.
4. Year over year sales comp's outlook will improve bit by bit
5. The most discounted stock of the Japan Big 3 Auto, mainly because of past difficulties; but 7/24 earnings report should clear things up and give a reassuried outlook.
6. Alternative fuel, hybrid vehicles are slowly entering the scene, e.g. the Altima. Better late than never?

Concerns:
Stronger Yen.
Leadership with Carlos Ghosn serving Nissan and Renault.
Larger displacement 3.7liter V-6's are less fuel efficient than twin turbo 3.5 V-6's.
Where's the Skyline? More Nismo products!?

Nissan Motor ended its fiscal 2007 with a lacking performance. The revenues surged 11% to Y10.469 trillion, led by increased sales from automobile sales and financing segments, as North American and European markets showed strong growth in sales. However, it is the bottom-line that left much to desire, falling by 11% to Y460.80 billion. The drop in net income can be attributed to unfavorable gross and operating margins, driven by rise in commodity prices and lower equity investment gains.

Nissans stock has been facing the brunt of slump in the net income, with stock price declining about 10% year-till-date. Moreover, there are more causes for worry as sales in U.S. light-vehicle market have been falling since the start of the year and are expected to fall in June. Thus as US market holds the key for company’s top-line growth, it will be very difficult for Nissan to achieve its $4.2 billion profit target for the fiscal year 2008 in such harsh market environment.

Going ahead, though the recent drop in Yen against the Dollar helped Nissan to cushion earnings, by increasing the value of overseas sales; this same might not be feasible in fiscal 2008 as outlook of Yen appears strong and can observe a rebound by the end of the year. Moreover, the cut throat competition and over all blurry industry outlook, amidst of rising fuel prices and growth in low margin compact cars, makes company’s credentials more bleak. Nissan has also given indications of delaying its mid term goal of selling 4.2 million vehicles in the year ending in March 2009. Further, as drop in margins are expected to continue due to higher commodity prices, while the US and Japanese market conditions are offering a stagnant growth, it will be better for an investor to stay away from Nissan at this point of time.

The new line of Altima's and Maxima's, in terms of performance, are every bit as good as the Camry or Accord. It seems like management has focused on building fun cars that consumers will love driving, however, are these cars reliable? Let's face it, people don't buy Toyota's or Honda's because they're fun to drive. They but them because they can put 200,000 miles on them. With these new models Nissan has to prove that the performance of their vehicles matches the reliability. I'm betting that we will see improvements and that sales will spike!

Nissan is turning up the heat on BMW with their M45/M35 and the G35! And my bet is that the company will grow.

Nissan will do well. They have innovative products and have a good cross section of what people are looking for across their product line. Perhaps the only place they are a little lacking is in the minivan segment, and I bet they improve that in the next model cycle in a few years.
