(1) Risk Factors
--- ---

No new risks have been identified during the six months ended June 30, 2021. No material changes have been identified pursuant to the risk factors of Canon’s business indicated in the Annual Securities Report (Yukashoken Houkokusho) of the previous fiscal year.

(2) Operating Results and Financial Conditions

Looking back at the first half of 2021, the global economy trended toward recovery thanks to the rollout of vaccines in developed countries and the resumption of economic activities despite the continued spread of the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic. In the United States, economic recovery advanced as a result of the rapid normalization of the economic activities and the continued increase in personal consumption and expansion of capital investment. In Europe, restrictions on economic activities were gradually eased in each country, and the economy began to recover due to such factors as an increase in exports. In China, the economic recovery continued as a result of the easing of government restrictions due to a decrease in the number of new infections and the continued expansion of domestic demand and exports. In other emerging markets, economic activities continued to stagnate due to the resurgence of COVID-19 variant infections, primarily in India. In Japan, despite the resurgence of infections, the economy continued to gain momentum as production activities and exports continued to recover.

Amid these conditions, in the markets in which Canon operates, demand for office multifunction devices (MFDs) showed significant increase compared with the same period of the previous year, when the market declined sharply as the COVID-19 pandemic spread worldwide. For laser printers, demand was above that of the same period of the previous year, mainly for monochrome models. For inkjet printers, demand in home use remained solid in developed countries and emerging countries. For cameras, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the market remained solid mainly for mirrorless cameras due to the growth of photography as a hobby. For medical equipment, the trend toward recovery continued due to increased sales activities focusing on medical institutions. For lithography equipment, demand for both semiconductor lithography equipment and FPD (Flat Panel Display) lithography equipment remained solid.

The average value of the yen during the second quarter and the first half of the year was ¥109.48 and ¥107.82 against the U.S. dollar, respectively, a year-on-year depreciation of approximately ¥2 and the same level as the previous year, and ¥131.94 and ¥129.90 against the euro, respectively, a year-on-year depreciation of approximately ¥13 and a year-on-year depreciation of approximately ¥10.

(2) Operating Results and Financial Conditions (continued)

[Second quarter results]

As for the second quarter, unit sales of office MFDs and equipment for the production printing market were above those of the same period of the previous year. Sales of services and consumables also increased due to a recovery of corporate activity. As for the Prosumer consisting of laser printers and inkjet printers, unit sales of laser printers were below those of the same period of the previous year due to the stagnation of production activity, despite increased demand due to remote working. For inkjet printers, although unit sales were below those of the same period of the previous year, when demand in home use increased sharply due to the spread of COVID-19, sales were above those of the same period of the previous year due to increase in sales of refillable ink tank printers. For interchangeable-lens digital cameras, unit sales were above those of the same period of the previous year in many regions due to strong sales of the EOS R5 and EOS R6 full-frame mirrorless cameras. As for network cameras, which are being used in a growing range of applications, sales increased due to the strengthening of sales activities. For medical equipment, sales increased in major areas due to strong sales of computed tomography (CT) systems and diagnostic X-ray systems. While sales for semiconductor lithography equipment remained solid, sales for FPD lithography equipment were significantly above those of the same period of the previous year. However, sales for OLED display manufacturing equipment were below those of the same period of the previous year due to the review of investment timing by some customers. Under these conditions, second-quarter net sales increased by 31.0% year-on-year to ¥881.9 billion. Gross profit margin increased by 6.5 points to 47.4%. Operating expenses increased by 16.1% year-on-year to ¥340.4 billion, due to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations, although expense ratio improved significantly thanks to Group-wide promotion of efficiency for expenses and the results of structural reform. As a result, operating profit totaled ¥77.3 billion representing in a shift from an operating loss in the same period of the previous year to an operating profit. Other income (deductions) decreased by ¥2.0 billion year-on-year to ¥8.5 billion, due to such factors as valuation losses on securities, while income before income taxes totaled ¥85.8 billion and net income attributable to Canon Inc. totaled ¥61.1 billion, with both incomes having recovered significantly from net losses in the same period of the previous year.

Basic net income attributable to Canon Inc. shareholders per share was ¥58.48 for the second quarter, a year-on-year increase of ¥66.93 representing in a shift from a loss in the same period of the previous year.

[First-half results]

As for the first half, unit sales of office MFDs and equipment for the production printing market were above those of the same period of the previous year. Sales of services and consumables also increased due to a recovery of corporate activity. As for the Prosumer consisting of laser printers and inkjet printers, unit sales of laser printers were below those of the same period of the previous year due to the stagnation of production activity, despite increased demand due to remote working. For inkjet printers, although unit sales were below those of the same period of the previous year, when demand in home use increased sharply due to the spread of COVID-19, sales were above those of the same period of the previous year due to increase in sales of refillable ink tank printers. For interchangeable-lens digital cameras, unit sales were above those of the same period of the previous year in many regions due to strong sales of the EOS R5 and EOS R6 full-frame mirrorless cameras. As for network cameras, which are being used in a growing range of applications, sales increased due to the strengthening of sales activities. For medical equipment, strong sales of computed tomography (CT) systems and diagnostic X-ray systems were recorded in the first quarter as a result of securing opportunities with medical institutions supported by the Japanese government, coupled by increased sales in major areas, such as Europe, the United States and Japan, in the first and second quarter. While sales for semiconductor lithography equipment remained solid, sales for FPD lithography equipment were significantly above those of the same period of the previous year. However, sales for OLED display manufacturing equipment were below those of the same period of the previous year due to the review of investment timing by some customers. Under these conditions, net sales for the first half of the year increased by 18.5% year-on-year to ¥1,724.6 billion. Gross profit margin increased by 2.9 points to 46.5%. Operating expenses increased by 5.7% year-on-year to ¥654.1 billion, due to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations, although expense ratio improved significantly thanks to Group-wide promotion of efficiency for expenses and the results of structural reform. As a result, operating profit for the first half of the year increased by 877.6% to ¥147.8 billion, while income before income taxes increased by 456.4% to ¥151.8 billion and first-half net income attributable to Canon Inc. increased by 707.9% to ¥105.6 billion.

Basic net income attributable to Canon Inc. shareholders per share was ¥100.99 for the first half, a year-on-year increase of ¥88.58.

(2) Operating Results and Financial Conditions (continued)

Looking at Canon’s first-half performance by business unit, in the Printing Business Unit, unit sales of office MFDs increased compared with the same period of the previous year, thanks to strong sales of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX series. For equipment for the production printing market, sales increased and unit sales significantly increased compared with the same period of the previous year. Sales of services and consumables increased as a result of higher print volumes particularly for office MFDs, as corporate activity gradually headed toward recovery. As for the Prosumer, unit sales of laser printers, both monochrome and color models, decreased compared with the same period of the previous year due to stagnation of production activity resulting from lockdowns in Southeast Asia despite an increase in demand due to remote working. Unit sales of consumables increased significantly compared with the same period of the previous year, when demand decreased due to the impact of COVID-19. For inkjet printers, unit sales were below those of the same period of the previous year, when demand from home use increased rapidly due to the spread of COVID-19. However, sales were above those of the same period of the previous year as unit sales of refillable ink tank printers increased compared with the same period of the previous year based on strong global demand. These factors resulted in total sales for the combined first six months of the year of ¥959.0 billion, a year-on-year increase of 10.1%, while income before income taxes totaled ¥120.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 57.0%.

As for the Imaging Business Unit, unit sales of interchangeable-lens digital cameras were above those of the same period of the previous year due to demand from customers who began photography as a hobby amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and strong sales of the EOS R5 and EOS R6. In addition, sales of interchangeable lenses increased significantly due to the expansion of the lens product lineup. As for network cameras, despite the continued impact of COVID-19, sales increased mainly as a result of strengthening sales activities for such diversified applications as remote monitoring and monitoring of congested and confined spaces as well as conventional market needs including crime prevention and disaster monitoring tools. These factors resulted in total sales for the combined first six months of the year of ¥318.5 billion, a year-on-year increase of 47.9%, while income before income taxes totaled ¥38.9 billion resulting in a recovery from a loss for the same period of the previous year.

As for the Medical Business Unit, although the resurgence of COVID-19 infections had an impact on business negotiations and installation in some regions, sales of CT systems and diagnostic X-ray systems increased overseas, mainly in Europe and the United States, combined with strong sales in Japan as a result of securing opportunities with medical institutions supported by the Japanese government in the first quarter. These factors resulted in total sales for the combined first six months of the year of ¥236.2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 13.6%, while income before income taxes totaled ¥15.5 billion, a year-on-year increase of 53.0%.

As for the Industrial & Others Business Unit, regarding semiconductor lithography equipment, demand for memory devices, image sensors and automotive devices remained solid. As a result, unit sales remained strong at a level equivalent to the same period of the previous year. For FPD lithography equipment, there was growth in demand for panels. As a result, unit sales increased significantly compared with the previous year, when equipment installation stagnated due to circumstances related to COVID-19. However, sales of OLED display manufacturing equipment decreased as a result of reviewed investment timing by some customers. These factors resulted in total sales for the combined first six months of the year of ¥262.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 32.4%, while income before income taxes totaled ¥24.8 billion, a year-on-year increase of 177.6%.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased by ¥121.6 billion to ¥4,747.3 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to increases of cash and cash equivalents, and inventories. Total liabilities decreased by ¥55.7 billion to ¥1,785.9 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to decreases of current portion of long-term debt, and accrued pension and severance cost, despite the increase in accrued income taxes. Total equity increased by ¥177.3 billion to ¥2,961.3 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to the end of previous year, mainly due to an increase in net profit and a decrease of accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from the depreciation of the yen.

(2) Operating Results and Financial Conditions (continued)

Cash Flows

In the first half, cash flow from operating activities increased by ¥131.8 billion year-on-year to ¥272.6 billion due to a significant increase in profit and working capital improvement. Cash flow used in investing activities increased by ¥7.5 billion year-on-year to ¥80.4 billion mainly due to a decrease in the sale of fixed assets. Accordingly, free cash flow increased by ¥124.3 billion compared with that of the previous year to ¥192.2 billion.

Cash flow from financing activities recorded an outlay of ¥89.7 billion mainly due to the repayment of long-term debt and the dividend payout.

Owing to these factors, as well as the impact from foreign currency exchange adjustments, cash and cash equivalents increased by ¥115.9 billion to ¥523.6 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
Six months ended<br>June 30, 2021

CANON INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

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 experiences 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are not significant.

Information about transferring finance receivables

Canon has syndication arrangements to sell its entire interests in finance receivables to the third-party financial institutions. The transactions under the arrangements are accounted for as sales in accordance with ASC 860 “Transfers and Servicing.” The transfers of finance receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were ¥8,775 million while there were no significant transfers of finance receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The amount that remained uncollected was ¥30,647 million and ¥36,339 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Cash proceeds from the transactions are included in other, net under the cash flow from operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

(11) Revenue

Canon recognizes contract assets primarily for unbilled receivables mainly arising from services contracts for office products. Contract assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were ¥41,865 million and ¥42,752 million respectively, and are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Canon typically bills the customer when the performance obligation is satisfied and collects the payment in a 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were ¥154,669 million and ¥135,455 million, respectively, and are included in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which had been included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2020, was ¥62,222 million.

Remaining performance obligations for products and equipment at June 30, 2021 primarily arise from the sales of certain industrial equipment, amounting to ¥132,340 million, 93% of which is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year and remaining 7% is within two years. Disclosure of remaining performance obligations is not required for the majority of service since the related revenue is recognized on an 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 contracts for office and medical products with original expected duration of more than one year is approximately 12% of total service revenue and the average remaining period for these fixed contracts as of June 30, 2021 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 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 June 30, 2021 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.

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 June 30, 2021, commitments outstanding for the purchase of property, plant and equipment approximated ¥40,694 million, and commitments outstanding for the purchase of parts and raw materials approximated ¥170,477 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 ¥11,033 million and ¥10,962 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 ¥2,470 million at June 30, 2021. The carrying amounts of the liabilities recognized for Canon’s obligations as a guarantor under those guarantees at June 30, 2021 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 six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 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 Note 13, respectively.

June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020

Long-term debt, including current installments (302,319 ) (302,262 ) (346,317 ) (346,275 )

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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, one customer accounted for approximately 9% and 8% of consolidated trade receivables, respectively. 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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

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 six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no circumstances that required any significant assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

(19) Segment Information

Canon operates its business in four segments: the Printing Business Unit, the Imaging Business Unit, the Medical Business Unit, and the Industrial and Others Business Unit, which are based on the organizational structure and information reviewed by Canon’s management to evaluate results and allocate resources.

Based on the realignment of Canon’s internal reporting and management structure, from the beginning of the first quarter of 2021, Canon changed the name and structure of segments to Printing Business Unit, Imaging Business Unit, Medical Business Unit, and Industrial and Others Business Unit. Major changes include moving Inkjet printers to the Printing Business Unit, the same business unit as Office multifunction devices (MFDs) and Laser multifunction printers (MFPs), and moving Network cameras to the Imaging Business Unit, the same business unit as Interchangeable-lens digital cameras. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2020 also have been reclassified.

The primary products included in each segment are as follows:

Printing Business Unit: Office multifunction devices (MFDs) / Document solutions /<br><br><br>Laser multifunction printers (MFPs) / Laser printers / Inkjet printers /<br><br><br>Image scanners / Calculators / Digital continuous feed presses /<br><br><br>Digital sheet-fed presses / Wide-format printers /<br><br><br>Large format inkjet printers / Commercial photo printers
