The maximum number of shares authorized for acquisition is set at 54 million shares, with a total acquisition amount capped at 200 billion yen. The acquisition period runs from January 30, 2026, to January 29, 2027. For March 2026, the acquisition result was 5,857,100 shares at a total acquisition price of 26,127,133,200 yen. Cumulatively, 10,036,300 shares of treasury stock have been acquired at an aggregate cost of 46,163,748,900 yen. The method of acquisition is market purchases on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (ToSTNeT-3 and off-auction trading based on a discretionary trading agreement).\n\n### Impact on Shareholders and Future Outlook\nThis treasury stock acquisition is implemented with an upper limit of approximately 6.1% against the total number of issued shares (excluding treasury stock), aiming to enhance shareholder value. The acquisition reduces the number of shares available in the market, which is expected to improve earnings per share. Going forward, Canon Inc. plans to continue treasury stock acquisitions based on board resolutions until January 29, 2027. Acquisition status will be disclosed as appropriate to provide shareholders with highly transparent information.","jir_financial_highlights":"Total Number of Shares Acquired (March 2026): 5,857,100 shares (Unknown)\nTotal Acquisition Cost of Shares Acquired (March 2026): 26,127,133,200 yen (Unknown)\nCumulative Total Number of Shares Acquired (As of March 31, 2026): 10,036,300 shares (Unknown)\nCumulative Total Acquisition Cost of Shares Acquired (As of March 31, 2026): 46,163,748,900 yen (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Canon, #TreasuryStockAcquisition, #CapitalPolicy, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Total Number of Shares Acquired (March 2026): 5,857,100 shares\nTotal Acquisition Cost of Shares Acquired (March 2026): 26,127,133,200 yen\nCumulative Total Number of Shares Acquired (As of March 31, 2026): 10,036,300 shares","jir_meta_title":"Canon Inc.
