- SemiAnalysis reports Canon has cut its 2026 i-line stepper shipment plan for the second time this year, with share loss in China believed to be a key driver.
- Chart data: shipments were 125 (2022), 131 (2023), 182 (2024), 188 (2025); the October 2026 plan sits at just 155 units, down 18% YoY.
- The 2026 plan has been revised repeatedly — Jan 153, Apr 169, Jul 157, Oct 155 — underscoring uncertainty in legacy-node equipment demand.
