Canon Marketing Japan (Canon MJ) announced its third-quarter results, reporting operating profit of ¥14.4 billion for July–September, up 32.6% year on year. This is seen as approximately ¥1.0 billion above market expectations.
Meanwhile, the full-year forecast was left unchanged at ¥63.0 billion, an 8.3% increase from the previous fiscal year, and is widely viewed as below consensus. Although the forecast has also been described as conservative, some investors have viewed leaving it unchanged negatively in light of the recent pace of growth.
