Canon Electronics Inc. ( (JP:7739) ) just unveiled an announcement.
Canon Electronics Inc. reported a modest 3.7% rise in net sales to ¥104.4 billion for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2025, but profitability weakened as operating profit fell 13.6% to ¥9.0 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent declined 15.1% to ¥6.5 billion, with margins and return on equity also deteriorating year on year. Despite the earnings decline, the balance sheet remained strong with total assets increasing and the equity ratio improving to 86.2%, while operating cash flow stayed positive though lower than the prior year. The company halved its annual dividend to ¥35 per share for 2025 after paying ¥70 per share in 2024, reflecting more cautious shareholder returns policy ahead of a major ownership change. As previously announced, Canon Electronics is scheduled to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon Inc., and its shares will be delisted, so the company has suspended dividend and earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, marking the end of its life as a standalone listed entity and shifting future value realization to Canon Inc. shareholders.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7739) stock is a Buy with a Yen4204.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Canon Electronics Inc. stock, see the JP:7739 Stock Forecast page.
