―4― 1. Performance and Financial Position An overview of the consolidated operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and the consolidated financial forecast for the year ending March 31, 2027 is provided in the presentation material, “Financial Results for the 1st Quarter of the Year Ending March 31, 2027,” released today on the Company’s website. https://www.nikon.com/company/ir/ir_library/result/ (i) Financial Position The balance of total assets as of June 30, 2026 increased by 22,125 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 1,097,132 million yen. This was mainly due to increases of 9,578 million yen in other financial assets, owing mainly to an increase in the market value of shares held, 8,605 million yen in property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, 5,424 million yen in inventories, and 4,055 million yen in other current assets, despite a decrease of 5,533 million yen in trade and other receivables. The balance of total liabilities as of June 30, 2026 increased by 15,561 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 502,372 million yen. This was mainly due to increases of 10,290 million yen in trade and other payables, 10,244 million yen in advances received, and 1,563 million yen in other non -current liabilities, despite decreases of 4,382 million yen in other current liabilities, owing mainly to a decrease in accrued expenses, and 1,786 million yen in provisions. The balance of total equity as of June 30, 2026 increased by 6,564 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 594,760 million yen. This was mainly due to an increase of 10,359 million yen in other components of equity, primarily as a result of changes in the fair value of financial assets held and an increase in exchange differences on translation of foreign operations, despite a decrease of 3,852 million yen in retained earnings owing mainly to dividends declared. (ii) Cash Flows During the three months ended June 30, 2026, for the cash flows from operating activities, net cash of 20,526 million yen was provided (4,401 million yen provided in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly attributable to the recordin g of profit before tax of 1,502 million yen and depreciation and amortization of 10,520 million yen, and increases in advances received and trade and other payables, despite an increase in inventories and income taxes paid. For the cash flows from investing activities, net cash of 15,973 million yen was used (13,798 million yen used in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly attributable to purchase of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. For the cash flows from financing activities, net cash of 7,555 million yen was used (10,833 million yen provided in the same period of the previous fiscal year). This was mainly attributable to cash dividends paid of 4,872 million yen and repayments of lease liabilities of 2,049 million yen. As a result of an increase of 2,026 million yen due to the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents, along with the cash flows outlined above, the balance of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026 decreased by 976 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 157,060 million yen.

―15― (Contingent Liabilities) (Litigation) The Group is exposed throughout its business activities to the possibility of being involved in a contentious case, becoming a defendant in a lawsuit, and being the object of inquiries by government agencies, in Japan and overseas. The Group examines the possibility of recognizing a provision for the obligation arising from a contentious case or a lawsuit, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The Company’s subsidiary in India (hereinafter referred as the “Subsidiary in India”) was inquired by the Indian Tax Authority regarding the import of the Company’s digital cameras, and in October 2016, the imposition was confirmed in relation to the custo ms duty, interest, and penalty concerning those products. In January 2017, the Subsidiary in India appealed to the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (hereinafter referred to as the “CESTAT”); however, the appeal was dismissed in December 2 017. To object to this decision, in January 2018, the Subsidiary in India filed an appeal to the Supreme Court of India (hereinafter referred to as the “Supreme Court”). In March 2021, the Supreme Court delivered a judgment revoking the decision of the CESTAT and consequently the demand notice by the Indian Tax Authority. Subsequently in April 2021, the Indian Tax Authority filed a request for retrial. The Supreme Court approved the request for retrial in November 2024, and remanded the case to the CESTAT. In April 2025, at the remanded trial, the CESTAT rendered a judgement that the products were exempt from taxation. However, the Indian Tax Authority appealed the judgement to the Supreme Court in February 2026. Subsequently, in July 2026, the Supreme Court accepted the appeal and commenced hearings in the case. As it is currently unable to predict the final decision of the lawsuit, the Company has not recognized any provision based on the aforementioned policy. (Contracts and Legal Compliance) In response to a question raised that the Company’s consolidated subsidiary, Optos Plc, sold refurbished products and new products without distinction, the Company conducted an internal investigation with the cooperation of the external organizations, as well as its own internal review. With respect to potential violations and breaches of legal, regulatory and contractual requirements in the United States, the Company has recorded a provision of 1,443 million yen for possible compensation, penalties or othe r sanction. As a result of the review conducted to date, the Company has not found any quality, sales or marketing or other issues that have caused the Company to increase the provision. Depending on the future progress of the investigation and the Company’s review, there is a possibility that its consolidated performance would be affected in case where payments to regulatory authorities and compensation to customers, etc., exceeding the above provision will occur. However, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the potential financial impact at this stage. In regard to any other cases, no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated performance and financial position is expected at this point in time.
