Sony’s profit in the last quarter surged 11 per cent on healthy global sales, prompting the Japanese entertainment and electronics company to raise its full year profit forecast.
Tokyo-based Sony Group Corp. said Thursday that it recorded an October-December net profit of 377.3 billion yen (USD 2.4 billion), up from 341 billion yen the year before. Quarterly sales rose 1 per cent to 3.71 trillion yen (USD 23.6 billion).
Sony, which makes PlayStation game consoles, “Spider-Man” movies, Walkman players and Bravia TVs, raised its profit forecast for the full fiscal year through March 2026 to 1.13 trillion yen (USD 7.2 billion).
That would mark a nearly 6 per cent rise from the previous fiscal year, a tad better than Sony’s earlier projection of 1.05 trillion yen (USD 6.7 billion).
The company’s quarterly operating profit improved across almost all of its sprawling businesses, including imaging sensors, games and music. Sony’s musical artists include Beyonce, SZA and Pharrell Williams.​Sony’s profit in the last quarter surged 11 per cent on healthy global sales, prompting the Japanese entertainment and electronics company to raise its full year profit forecast.
