at the Board of Directors meeting on December 24, 2025, to voluntarily adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for its consolidated financial statements and consolidated documents, transitioning from the previously applied U.S. GAAP. The application of IFRS will commence from the first quarter of fiscal 2027, and the consolidated earnings outlook for fiscal 2027, disclosed in the financial summary for fiscal 2026, will be published based on IFRS. Fiscal years 2025 and 2026 will continue to apply U.S. GAAP.\n\n### Impact on Investors\nThe voluntary adoption of IFRS is expected to enhance the quality of medium- to long-term financial and managerial reporting systems and improve comparability of financial information in the global capital markets. Investors should take note that disclosures from fiscal 2027 onward will apply IFRS, and careful attention is needed when comparing financial figures due to the change in accounting standards.","jir_financial_highlights":"","jir_category":"Other, Strategy\/Investment","jir_hashtags":"#CanonInc, #IR, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Fiscal 2025: Application of U.S. GAAP\nFiscal 2027: IFRS adoption begins","jir_meta_title":"Canon Inc.
