索尼(Sony)昨日宣布其游戏与电视部门亏损加重,并表示,其液晶显示器生产线开工不足,PlayStation 3游戏机的年销售目标也可能无法实现。
Sony yesterday reported increased losses in its games and television divisions and said its liquid crystal display model line was inadequate and its annual sales goal for the PlayStation 3 might not be met.
索尼指出,与上年同期相比,其游戏部门在第三季度的运营损失已经增加一倍以上,达到967亿日元(合8.57亿美元),凸显出PS3游戏机不尽人意的业绩。
Underlining the lacklustre performance of the PS3, Sony said the operating loss of its games unit had more than doubled to Y96.7bn ($857m) in the third quarter compared with the same period last year.
不过,索尼首席财务官大根田伸行(Nobuyuki Oneda)表示,下半财年,游戏部门会实现收支平衡,在2008年4月开始的下一财年将会赢利。昨日,索尼还将全年运营收益预期从4400亿日元提高到4500亿日元。
However, Nobuyuki Oneda, chief financial officer, said the unit would break even in the second half of this year and would turn a profit in the
fiscal year starting April 2008. And Sony yesterday raised its annual operating profit
forecast to Y450bn from Y440bn.
