Techno offers a wide range of products in the field of optical measurement equipment, such as 2D spectroradiometers, luminance colorimeters, and illuminance meters, based on its proprietary optical technology. It particularly excels in applications for the development, evaluation, and inspection of flat panel displays, automobiles, VR/AR goggles, and others.

To further enhance the growth of Techno’s optical measurement equipment business and strengthen its business operations including enhancement of overseas sales channels, it was deemed appropriate to pursue management reinforcement under the leadership and support of ACA, which resulted in this transaction.

Please note that the transfer price of the shares will not be disclosed. Additionally, the impact on Topcon’s consolidated business results is estimated to be minimal.
