Canon’s overall operating profit increased by 35.2 percent compared to its second-quarter performance last year, helping push Canon’s first-half operating profits for FY2026 up 7.6 percent in total compared to last year.
That’s good enough news as it is, but the outlook is even rosier in the company’s substantial imaging division. In fact, imaging is the star of Canon’s latest finances. Second-quarter net sales in imaging increased by 17.7 percent, year-over-year, while operating profit rose a staggering 78.7 percent.
With the news, Canon has increased its projected net profit for FY2026 overall from 456 billion yen to 465 billion yen. The company has also revised its projections for imaging, increasing expected profit for FY2026 from 176.5 to 191.5 billion yen. In supplemental presentation material, Canon described its Imaging business as “highly profitable,” noting that its sales of higher-priced camera models increased during the second quarter.
Canon's products include cameras (including compact digital camera, video camera, film SLR and digital SLR), camcorders, lenses, broadcasting equipment and solutions (such as free viewpoint solution), professional displays, projectors, manufacturing equipment (including photolithography equipment such as steppers, scanners), printers, photocopiers, image scanners, digital microfilm scanners, fax machines, binoculars, microscopes, medical equipment (including diagnostic systems such as ultrasound, X-ray, CTand MRI scanners and ophthalmic equipment), CCTV solutions, image sensors, calculators, high precision positioning and measurement devices (such as rotary encoders), custom optical components, handy terminals, mixed reality systems, software, and space satellites.
Maybe canon wont open there doors to third party lenses??
