Canon Inc. (7751) announced on April 1 that it will book a 99.9 billion yen special loss in its non-consolidated financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, as it absorbs part of its subsidiary Canon Medical Systems. The charge reflects the gap between the net assets inherited and the book value of the subsidiary shares, treated as a loss on extinguishment of subsidiary shares, and has no impact on consolidated results. The amount is nearly half of Canon's prior-year net profit of about 200 billion yen, but it is a temporary accounting adjustment.
