When i put it as default formatting, it becomes -9. When i do below custom formatting, then it becomes 9 encircled

ok i think its safe to say that the formatting is what is causing this as this is a custom format,  however when i try to recreate the issue in my file i am not getting the same issue.    Is there any possiblity of sharing your file?    where do you set the colour to red?  also can you share a screen shot of your regional settings?

 

I have a feeling this is a bug, and you might need to report it to microsoft but it would be best to share your file

    I tried to recreate a sample file but i don't get that issue. I set the color red using conditional formatting but that is not the issue because i removed it and the 9 was still encircled. This seems to be a bug to me. How to report this to Microsoft?

    yes i know its not the issue but i just wanted to get the full understanding of all the changes you are making. If it's not recreatable, then it might not be a bug, if you compare both versions what is different?  you would need to compare data types, values, all formatting etc.   might be the indicator to the issue. 

     

    However if you need to create a bug  this would be the place to do it.  https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
