Conflict Minerals Report

For the Period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014

This Conflict Minerals Report for the period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014, is presented as an exhibit to the Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD, to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

1. Introduction (Background to the disclosure of the Conflict Minerals Report)

Established in 1937, Canon Inc. is a Japanese corporation with its headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, that develops, manufactures and sells professional and consumer imaging equipment and information systems. Canon’s extensive range of products includes office multifunction devices, laser multifunction printers, inkjet printers, digital production printing systems, digital cameras, digital camcorders, medical equipment and semiconductor lithography equipment. For details of corporate activities please refer to our annual report filed on Form 20-F.

Canon Inc. is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and is subject to the final rules issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”).

In response to Rule 13p-1, Canon Inc. conducted a “Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry” (“RCOI”) for products manufactured or contracted to manufacture by Canon Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Canon” or “Canon Group”) from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 (“reporting period”). In addition, since it could be assumed from the results of our first-year RCOI that it was possible that four types of minerals classified as conflict minerals—namely tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (“3TG”)—that originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries (“covered countries”) and did not come from scrap or recycled materials were being used in some of the parts or materials that make up Canon’s products, Canon concurrently conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of its conflict minerals (“due diligence”) in a case where 3TG which possibly originated from the covered countries were identified during an RCOI.

2. Application of Conflict Minerals Report on Canon and products subject to disclosure

As of December 31, 2014, Canon Inc. had 261 consolidated subsidiaries, of which 58 subsidiaries were manufacturing products or contracting to manufacture products in the reporting period. In total, 59 companies of the Canon Group including Canon Inc. conducted the RCOI. The subsidiaries that conducted the RCOI include certain marketing companies that contracted with manufacturers outside the Canon Group to manufacture items for sale outside the Canon Group.

The business operations of Canon can be divided into the following three categories: the Office Business Unit, the Imaging System Business Unit, and the Industry and Others Business Unit. The Office Business Unit includes office multifunction devices, laser multifunction printers and digital production printing systems. The Imaging System Unit includes interchangeable lens digital cameras, digital compact cameras, digital camcorders, inkjet printers and broadcast equipment. The Industry and Others Business Unit includes semiconductor lithography equipment, FPD (Flat panel display) lithography equipment, digital radiography systems, ophthalmic equipment, network cameras and handy terminals.

In each of these units, electronic components and substrates which contain 3TG are used in the majority of products manufactured by or contracted for manufacture by Canon.

Canon Group purchases raw materials, parts and components and manufactures products. Canon is located downstream in the 3TG supply chain. Canon does not directly purchase the 3TG from mines and has not been involved in the smelter or refinery business. Therefore, Canon had to rely on information provided by the first-tier suppliers or companies which are upstream in the supply chain in regard to identification of the source country of the 3TG.

 

3. Basic principles regarding response to conflict minerals

Canon Inc. established the “Basic Approach of the Canon Group Regarding Conflict Minerals” in September 2012. This has been published on Canon Inc.’s official website.

URL:     http://www.canon.com/csr/conflict/policy.html

 

4. RCOI and Due Diligence

The design of the RCOI and due diligence conducted by Canon followed the “OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas” (“OECD Guidance”). Canon took the steps described below in accordance with the five steps laid out in the OECD Guidance.

 

2


  a. Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
  - In order to respond to the conflict minerals situation, Canon established a cross-functional Conflict Minerals Response Project Team (“Project Team”) in the headquarters under the direction of a representative director in charge (Executive Vice President & CFO) in December 2010. Moreover, Canon designated the person in charge of conflict minerals in each of its group companies involved in manufacturing or contracted manufacturing.
  - As stated above, Canon established the “Basic Approach of the Canon Group Regarding Conflict Minerals” in September 2012.
  - In June 2014, Canon summoned the persons in charge of conflict minerals of the Canon Group’s domestic subsidiaries involved in manufacturing or contracted manufacturing and had a meeting to share the result of the 2013 conflict minerals survey and its future policies. Moreover, for the persons in charge of conflict minerals of its overseas subsidiaries, Canon shared the information on a video and telephone conference.
  - Canon introduced the supplier management system; and in order to utilize the system in the conflict minerals survey, Canon carried out briefing sessions on system introduction inside and outside Japan for its first-tier suppliers, as well as requesting their cooperation with the conflict minerals survey.
  - For the first-tier suppliers and the companies in the upper stream, Canon created and distributed a RCOI manual to them.
  - Canon requested the first-tier suppliers to the Canon Group to submit letters of agreement confirming the understanding of Canon’s basic approach regarding conflict minerals and agreeing to cooperate with its survey.
  - Using the “Conflict Minerals Information Management System,” Canon Inc. linked the survey responses to product information and conducted assessments for each product. The results were stored in the database. These data records will be retained for five years.
  - Canon actively participated in activities by the industry to address issues concerning conflict minerals. Canon Inc. was a member of the Responsible Minerals Trade Working Group of the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (“JEITA”) and held the role of co-chair since April 2013. JEITA carried out briefing sessions on the survey for the suppliers in the upper stream of the supply chain of the electric and electronic industry.
  - The help desk for reporting compliance and the CSR inquiry desk of Canon Inc. were available for employees, first-tier suppliers and other stakeholders to report or inquire about matters regarding conflict minerals.

 

3


  b. Step 2: Identify and assess risk in the supply chain
  - To the extent possible, Canon identified each of the parts and materials used in the products that it manufactured or contracted to be manufactured during the reporting period and carried out the RCOI on the first-tier suppliers.
  - For the RCOI, Canon used the CFSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”). The CMRT was published by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”), one of the programs of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (“EICC”). The number of the first-tier suppliers to the Canon Group which may use 3TG and to which the CMRT was sent amounted to 3,434.
  - In addition, as previously mentioned, Canon conducted due diligence concurrently with the RCOI on first-tier suppliers which reported the use of 3TG from the covered countries.
  - By introducing the supplier management system, Canon Inc. was able to check from its headquarters the situations of distribution and responses of the CMRT against approximately 75% of the first-tier suppliers which are the subject to the RCOI.
  - Canon requested replies from the first-tier suppliers who did not respond by the closing date of the response.
  - Canon compared the smelters or refineries (“SORs”) identified through the RCOI against the list of the SORs which are compliant with the Conflict Free Smelter Program (“CFS Program”), as published by the CFSI.

 

  c. Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
  - The head of the Project Team reported the progress of conflict minerals response activities to the representative director in charge as necessary. Moreover, the Project Team reported on annually its progress to relevant directors of Canon Inc. and to the presidents of the relevant domestic and overseas subsidiaries.
  - Canon participated in activities to identify SORs handling the 3TG in Japan and activities to encourage the SORs identified to join the CFSI’s CFS Program through the activities of the JEITA and the Japan Conflict Free Sourcing Working Group (to be described below). JEITA has an alliance with EICC and CFSI, which play the leading role in the response to the conflict minerals.

 

4


  - As co-chair of the Japan Conflict Free Sourcing Working Group, a joint initiative by the JEITA and major Japanese automobile manufacturers, Canon visited three gold refineries in 2014, joined an alliance with the Japan Gold Metal Association, and held a briefing session which was attended by twelve gold refineries.
  - In addition to the above activities, Canon formally joined the CFSI as an individual company in April, 2015. The membership code is “CNON.”

 

  d. Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain
  - Through its role as a key member of the Japan Conflict Free Sourcing Working Group, Canon carried out activities such as the improvement of survey methods and detailed inspections of information regarding SORs.

 

  e. Step 5: Report on supply chain due diligence
  - In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act and the SEC’s final rules, on or before June 1, 2015, Canon Inc. will file a Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report (this report) with the SEC, and publish the same information on its official website.
  - Canon Inc. has been reporting its activities in response to conflict minerals in its Annual Report and Sustainability Report since 2011.

 

5. Survey results for the 2014 calendar year

 

  a. Result of RCOI and due diligence surveys
  - Canon conducted the RCOI surveys on 3,434 first-tier suppliers that possibly use 3TG. Canon conducted due diligence concurrently with the RCOI on first-tier suppliers which reported the use of 3TG from the covered countries.
  - Even if 3TG of the covered countries were used, the majority of the companies replied that they had been purchasing from the SORs which complied with the CFS Program. Within the scope of the responses, there was nothing to clearly suggest that parts or materials that the Canon Group had purchased were used as the source of funds for armed groups.

 

5


  b. Result of SORs survey
  - Canon analyzed the information on the SORs mentioned in the responses from the supply chain through the RCOI and identified 257 as the CFSI’s known SORs. Among these, 147 SORs were compliant with the CFS Program. Such 147 compliant SORs and the other 110 CFSI’s known SORs are listed in the Appendix 1.
  - Canon was unable to determine the processing facilities of the remaining SORs.

As a result, Canon was unable to determine the origin of the 3TG used for the products of Canon Group based on the information provided by the identified SORs.

Further, according to the results of the RCOI and due diligence mentioned above, Canon was unable to determine whether the 3TG used for the products of the Canon Group financed or benefitted armed groups in the covered countries.

 

6. Planned risk mitigation for 2015 onwards

The following risk mitigation procedures are planned to be implemented from 2015 onwards.

 

  - Analyze risks of the 3TG supply chain and work towards collecting information on the necessary parts and materials in order to improve the accuracy of the evaluation at the product level through use of the “Conflict Minerals Information Management System.”
  - For new business partners, it will be necessary to implement the in-house rules to check the usage of 3TG and the cooperation with the surveys which Canon Inc. recently enacted before commencing business.
  - Continue to participate in industry groups and alliances such as JEITA and the Japan Conflict Free Sourcing Working Group and, through such activities, continue to support EICC’s initiatives.
  - Contribute to making SORs as conflict free as possible as a member of the CFSI. Canon joined the CFSI in April 2015.

 

7. Independent monitoring
  - Pursuant to Rule 13p-1 of the SEC, Canon Inc. is not required to attach an audit report by an independent auditor from the private sector in regard to the Conflict Minerals Report that Canon Inc. will present to the SEC by June 1, 2015.
