(2)	Operating Results and Financial Conditions

Operating Results

Looking at the global economy in the first quarter of 2020, the global economy rapidly declined due to limited economic activity caused by the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) global pandemic. The U.S. economy remained on a path of modest growth until February, thanks to the strong employment situation. It rapidly declined, however, from the beginning of March due to a drop in consumption caused by restrictions on people’s movement. The European economy, which showed signs of recovery in manufacturing sectors from the beginning of 2020 also fell significantly due to a rapid slowdown in consumption caused by, among others, the lockdown of major cities from March. The Chinese economy experienced a drop in domestic demand, mainly due to factory shutdowns and travel restrictions from January. Despite a gradual restart of economic activity from March, however, the Chinese economy saw a significant drop in its rate of growth. Even in other emerging markets, economic activity stagnated due to spread of the infection and drops in resource prices. As for Japan, in addition to sluggish consumption from the fourth quarter of last year due to a hike in the consumption tax rate, the impact of exercising self-restraint with regard to going out since March caused the economic slowdown to worsen.

Amid these conditions, in the markets in which Canon operates, demand for both color and monochrome office multifunction devices (MFDs) declined. As for laser printers, demand also declined, particularly for monochrome models. The camera market declined at an accelerated rate, reflecting the market’s ongoing contraction so far and the impact of COVID-19. As for inkjet printers, although the market continued to shrink, demand did increase in some regions due to remote working and learning. For medical equipment, although sales of equipment in the diagnosis of pneumonia and other infections increased, overall sales were impacted not only by the cancelation of academic conferences and trade show in and outside of Japan, but also by suppressed access to medical institutions. While manufacturers also continued to restrain capital investment in the industrial equipment market, demand for network cameras continued to expand.

The average value of the yen in the first quarter was ¥108.96 against the U.S. dollar, a year-on-year appreciation of approximately ¥1, and ¥120.11 against the euro, a year-on-year appreciation of approximately ¥5.

3

As for the first quarter, although sales of office MFDs were sluggish, the market for the production printing business remained solid. As for laser printers, despite expanding sales of new models, overall unit sales were below those of last year in the same period, due to the impact that COVID-19 had on production. Although top share of the interchangeable-lens digital camera market was maintained, unit sales were below those of last year in the same period, due to market contraction and the impact that COVID-19 had on production. As for inkjet printers, unit sales were above those of last year in the same period thanks to a rise in demand linked to remote working and learning in developed countries and China. As for medical equipment, although efforts were made to expand sales based on a series of new products introduced so far, because of delays in equipment installation at medical institutions that are our customers and also limited sales & marketing activities due to COVID-19, overall sales were below those of last year in the same period. In industrial equipment, lithography equipment sales were below those of last year in the same period, despite solid capital investment for image sensors supporting the development of the IoT (Internet of Things), due to the ongoing phase of capital investment adjustment towards memory devices and small- and medium-size panels. Conversely, sales of network cameras increased as they are deployed in a wider range of applications. Under these conditions, first-quarter net sales decreased by 9.5% year-on-year to ¥782.3 billion. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales rose by 0.6 points to 45.8%. Operating expenses decreased by 6.9% year-on-year to ¥325.8 billion, thanks to improved productivity and the further promotion of selection and focus for expenses as well as effects of foreign currency fluctuation. As a result, operating profit decreased by 18.7% to ¥32.9 billion. Other income (deductions) decreased by ¥4.1 billion, mainly due to valuation losses on securities compared with the previous year, while income before income taxes decreased by 25.2% year-on-year to ¥34.5 billion and net income attributable to Canon Inc. decreased by 30.0% to ¥21.9 billion.

Basic net income attributable to Canon Inc. shareholders per share was ¥20.69 for the quarter, a year-on-year decrease of ¥8.31.

(2)	Operating Results and Financial Conditions (continued)

Looking at Canon’s first-quarter performance by business unit, in the Office Business Unit, unit sales of office MFDs were below those of last year in the same period due to delays in business negotiations and equipment installations. It also reflected the impact of office closures due to the spread of COVID-19. Conversely, in the production printing market, unit sales grew thanks to the imagePRESS C165, a new model that has been well received by the market for its ability to provide high-speed and high-volume printing in a compact form factor. As for laser printers, unit sales were below those of last year in the same period, despite being led by new products that pursue not only low-energy consumption and compact form factors, but also high productivity. This also reflected a decline in sales of low-speed models in China due to the ongoing economic slowdown as well as the impact that COVID-19 had on production. Sales of consumables also declined, reflecting impact from the global economic slowdown. These factors resulted in total sales for the business unit of ¥397.6 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 9.4%, while income before income taxes increased by 2.4% year-on-year to ¥47.3 billion thanks to cost reduction.

As for the Imaging System Business Unit, unit sales of interchangeable-lens digital cameras were below those of last year in the same period. This reflected contraction of the Japanese market after the consumption tax hike and the impact of COVID-19 on Canon’s supply chain and marketing activities in each country. As for inkjet printers, unit sales in emerging market were below those of last year in the same period due to the impact of economic slowdown. In developed countries and China, however, sales grew due to expanding demand resulting from remote working and learning. As a result, overall unit sales were above those of last year in the same period. Consequently, sales for the business unit decreased by 13.9% year-on-year to ¥151.7 billion, while income before income taxes decreased by 81.6% year-on-year to ¥0.9 billion.

As for the Medical System Business Unit, although sales of Diagnostic X-ray systems and related components grew, there were fewer opportunities to hold business discussion with customers owing to the cancelation of academic conferences and trade shows due to COVID-19. Additionally, sales were hindered as, particularly in Europe and the U.S., entry restrictions were tightened from the beginning of March, delays in equipment installation at medical institutions were caused and sales & marketing activities were limited. Consequently, sales for the business unit decreased by 3.0% year-on-year to ¥106.1 billion, while income before income taxes decreased by 36.8% year-on-year to ¥4.1 billion.

As for the Industry & Others Business Unit, as for semiconductor equipment, although capital investment towards memory devices remained in a phase of adjustment, capital investment towards IoT related image sensors remained solid. As a result, unit sales were above those of last year in the same period. As for FPD (Flat Panel Display) lithography equipment, manufacturers continued to hold back capital investment towards small- and medium-size panels due to sluggish demand for smartphones. At the same time, the installation of some FPD lithography equipment for large-size panels was postponed due to the impact of COVID-19. As a result, unit sales were below those of last year in the same period. On the other hand, as for network cameras, sales of network cameras increased reflecting the growth of Axis and the contribution of relevant software, driven by the market’s continued expansion based on diversifying market needs and replacement demand. Consequently, sales for the business unit decreased by 9.8% year-on-year to ¥147.1 billion, while income before income taxes decreased by 28.4% year-on-year to ¥4.1 billion.

Financial Conditions

Total assets decreased by ¥91.1 billion to ¥4,677.3 billion at March 31, 2020, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to the decrease of trade receivables, net. Total liabilities increased by ¥79.9 billion to ¥1,956.3 billion at March 31, 2020, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to the increase of short-term loans and current portion of long-term debt. Total equity decreased by ¥171.0 billion to ¥2,720.9 billion at March 31, 2020, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to dividends to Canon Inc. shareholders, share repurchases and the increase of accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from the appreciation of the yen.

(2)	Operating Results and Financial Conditions (continued)

Cash Flows

During the first quarter of 2020, cash flow from operating activities totaled ¥63.3 billion, an increase of ¥2.5 billion compared with the same period of the previous year, owing to improvements in working capital, despite a decrease in profit. Cash flow used in investing activities decreased by ¥8.0 billion year-on-year to ¥43.6 billion mainly due to a decrease of investment in production equipment. Accordingly, free cash flow totaled positive ¥19.7 billion, an increase of ¥10.5 billion compared with the corresponding year-ago period.

As for cash flow from financing activities, despite cash outlays for dividend payments and share repurchases, proceeds of ¥13.6 billion was recorded, mainly due to an increase in short-term loans.

Owing to these factors, as well as the impact from foreign currency translation adjustments, cash and cash equivalents increased by ¥27.1 billion to ¥439.9 billion from the end of the previous year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have reported our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, we have discussed our results using “free cash flow,” which is a non-GAAP measure.

We believe this measure, which takes into consideration the Company’s operating and investing activities, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of Canon’s current liquidity and the alternatives of use in financing activities.

A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP are set forth on the following table.

	Billions of yen
	Three months ended<br>March 31, 2020

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)	Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
(a)	Basis of Presentation
---	---

The Company issued convertible debentures in the United States in May 1969 and established a program in which its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) were traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market. Since then, under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has prepared its annual consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and filed them with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 20-F. The Company’s ADRs were listed on the NYSE in September 2000 after being quoted on NASDAQ from February 1972 to September 2000.

Canon’s quarterly consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of U.S. GAAP. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

The number of consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies that were accounted for by the equity method as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are summarized as follows:

	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Consolidated subsidiaries		354		361
Affiliated companies		8		8
Total		362		369
(b)	Principles of Consolidation
---	---

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries and those variable interest entities where the Company or its consolidated subsidiaries are the primary beneficiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

(c)	Recent Accounting Guidance
---	---

Recently adopted accounting guidance

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires entities to use a current expected credit loss model to measure impairments of certain financial assets. Using this model results in earlier recognition of losses than under the incurred loss approach, which requires waiting to recognize a loss until it is probable of being incurred. Canon adopted the guidance from the quarter beginning January 1, 2020 with the modified retrospective basis through a cumulative effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operation and financial condition.

Canon has policies in place to ensure that its products are sold to customers with an appropriate credit history, and continuously monitors its customers’ credit quality based on information including length of period in arrears, macroeconomic conditions, initiation of legal proceedings against customers and bankruptcy filings. The allowance for credit losses of finance receivables are evaluated collectively based on historical experience of credit losses. An additional reserve for individual accounts is recorded when Canon becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings. Finance receivables which are past due or individually evaluated for impairment at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are not significant.

(11)	Revenue

Canon includes contract assets primarily for unbilled receivables mainly arising from services contracts for office products in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The balances of the contract assets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were ¥52,232 million and ¥43,783 million respectively.

Canon typically bills to the customer when performance obligation is satisfied and collects the payment in relatively short term except for certain maintenance service of office and medical products and certain industrial equipment for which Canon occasionally receives the payment in advance from customers. The amount received in excess of revenue recognized is recognized as deferred revenue until the performance obligation for distinct goods or services are satisfied. Deferred revenue at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were ¥123,926 million and ¥113,030 million, respectively, and are included in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which had been included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2019, was ¥36,727 million.

Remaining performance obligations for products and equipment at March 31, 2020 primarily arise from the sales of certain industrial equipment, amounting to ¥214,655 million, 72% of which is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year and remaining 28% is within two years. Disclosure of remaining performance obligations is not required for the majority of service since the revenue is recognized as billed basis applying the right to invoice practical expedient or is generated from the contracts with original expected duration of less than one year. The portion of fixed maintenance service contract for office and medical products with original expected duration of more than one year is approximately 11% of total service revenue and the average remaining period for these fixed contracts as of March 31, 2020 is about two years.

Disaggregated revenues by business unit, product and geographic area are described in Note 19.

(13)	Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk management policy

Canon operates internationally, exposing it to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are comprised principally of foreign exchange contracts utilized by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to reduce the risk. Canon assesses foreign currency exchange rate risk by continually monitoring changes in the exposures and by evaluating hedging opportunities. Canon does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Canon is also exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments, but it is not expected that any counterparties will fail to meet their obligations. Most of the counterparties are internationally recognized financial institutions and selected by Canon taking into account their financial condition, and contracts are diversified across a number of major financial institutions.

Foreign currency exchange raterisk management

Canon’s international operations expose Canon to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Canon uses foreign exchange contracts to manage certain foreign currency exchange exposures principally from the exchange of U.S. dollars and euros into Japanese yen. These contracts are primarily used to hedge the foreign currency exposure of forecasted intercompany sales and intercompany trade receivables that are denominated in foreign currencies. In accordance with Canon’s policy, a specific portion of foreign currency exposure resulting from forecasted intercompany sales is hedged using foreign exchange contracts which principally mature within three months.

Cash flow hedge

Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges, including foreign exchange contracts associated with forecasted intercompany sales, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These amounts are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the same period as the hedged items affect earnings. Substantially all amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of March 31, 2020 are expected to be recognized in net sales over the next twelve months. Changes in the fair value of a foreign exchange contract for the period between the date that the forecasted intercompany sales occur and its maturity date are recognized in earnings and not considered hedge ineffectiveness.

Derivatives not designated as hedges

Canon has entered into certain foreign exchange contracts to primarily offset the earnings impact related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates associated with certain assets denominated in foreign currencies. Although these foreign exchange contracts have not been designated as hedges as required in order to apply hedge accounting, the contracts are effective from an economic perspective. The changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded in earnings immediately.

(15)	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Commitments

As of March 31, 2020, commitments outstanding for the purchase of property, plant and equipment approximated ¥30,872 million, and commitments outstanding for the purchase of parts and raw materials approximated ¥123,366 million.

Guarantees

Canon occupies sales offices and other facilities under lease arrangements accounted for as operating leases. Deposits mainly for restoration made under such arrangements aggregated ¥11,490 million and ¥11,778 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are included in noncurrent receivables in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Canon provides guarantees for its employees, affiliates and other companies. The guarantees for the employees are principally made for their housing loans. The guarantees for affiliates and other companies are made for their lease obligations and bank loans to ensure that those companies operate with less financial risk.

Canon would have to perform under a guarantee if the borrower defaults on a payment within the contract terms. The contract terms are 1 year to 15 years in case of employees with housing loans, and 1 year to 5 years in case of affiliates and other companies with lease obligations and bank loans. The maximum amount of undiscounted payments Canon would have had to make in the event of default is ¥2,580 million at March 31, 2020. The carrying amounts of the liabilities recognized for Canon’s obligations as a guarantor under those guarantees at March 31, 2020 were not significant.

Canon also offers assurance-type warranties under which it generally guarantees the performance of products delivered and services rendered for a certain period or term. Estimated product warranty costs are recorded at the time revenue is recognized and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Estimates for accrued product warranty costs are based on historical experience. Accrued product warranty costs are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and changes in accrued product warranty cost for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 are summarized as follows:

Legal proceedings

Canon is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Canon has recorded provisions for liabilities when it is probable that liabilities have been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Canon reviews these provisions at least quarterly and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impact of the negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Based on its experience, although litigation is inherently unpredictable, Canon believes that any damage amounts claimed in outstanding matters are not a meaningful indicator of Canon’s potential liability. In the opinion of management, any reasonably possible range of losses from outstanding matters would not have a material adverse effect on Canon’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

(16)	Disclosures about the Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Credit Risk<br>

Fair value of financial instruments

The estimated fair values of Canon’s financial instruments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are set forth below. The following summary excludes cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, finance receivables, noncurrent receivables, short-term loans, trade payables and accrued expenses, and the fair values of these instruments approximate their carrying amounts. The summary also excludes investments and derivative instruments which are disclosed in Note 2 and Note 17, and Note13, respectively.

	Millions of yen
	March 31, 2020						December 31, 2019
	Carrying<br>amount			Estimated<br>fair value			Carrying<br>amount			Estimated<br>fair value
Long-term debt, including current installments		(354,388	)		(354,388	)		(354,444	)		(354,444	)

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value in the above table.

Long-term debt

Canon’s long-term debt instruments are classified as Level 2 instruments and valued based on the present value of future cash flows associated with each instrument discounted using current market borrowing rates for similar debt instruments of comparable maturity. The levels are more fully described in Note 17.

Limitations of fair value estimates

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Concentrations of credit risk

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, one customer accounted for approximately 10% of consolidated trade receivables. Although Canon does not expect that the customer will fail to meet its obligations, Canon is potentially exposed to concentrations of credit risk if the customer failed to perform according to the terms of the contracts.

(17)	Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value is as follows:

Level 1 -	Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 -	Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and<br>inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 -	Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable, which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants<br>would use in establishing a price.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The following tables present Canon’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consistent with the fair value hierarchy at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Level 1 investments are comprised principally of Japanese equity securities, which are valued using an unadjusted quoted market price in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency of transactions. Level 2 cash and cash equivalents are valued based on market approach, using quoted prices for identical assets in markets that are not active.

Derivative financial instruments are comprised of foreign exchange contracts. Level 2 derivatives are valued using quotes obtained from counterparties or third parties, which are periodically validated by pricing models using observable market inputs, such as foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, based on market approach.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no circumstances that required any significant assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
