Sony to post Y100 bln op profit in Oct-Dec -Nikkei

Umm - here's the problem. Sony's year on year is not good.

Their revenue grew year on year from 4.9% 10.5%, 6.9% till 2007-08. In 2008-09 their yoy revenue decline was -12.9%. That's their worst yoy performance in years. Anything will seem like a positive after that year.

 

Here's some divisional numbers on Revenue / OP / OP Margin, Operating Return on Assets from last year

Electronics - 5,032 / -168 / -3.06 / -4.87

Game - 985 / -58 / -5.55 / -9.27

Pictures - 717 / +30 / +4.17 / +3.30

 

Some other divisions and stuff which I am not posting here. The point I am trying to make is that Sony corporate's quarterly operating profit is not an indicator of their game business or how much it will benefit.

lmao so it's a crime to post Sony makes a profit after a long time news thread? wow ok

Don't worry young padawan, your time will come when MS posts their results and you see their gaming division is still 5.5 - 6 billion US$ in the red.

Way to go gramps :( . Just when the party was about to start..

 

Q1 (-268), Q2 (-362), Q3 (-60), Q4 (10.3). FY OP forecast (-685.9).

 

isnt Q4 ( +1100)

 

So that means they will make profit for fiscal year 2010.
