Company Report

Solid June Quarter Results Show Sony’s Resilience to Economic Fluctuations

As technologies and consumer preferences change rapidly, it is generally difficult for consumer electronics companies to build an economic moat. The replacement cycle for digital appliances is usually four to six years, but as most products are commoditized, it is difficult for manufacturers to build an ecosystem that prevents customers from switching to other brands. As a result, Sony’s profitability on electronics had been unstable in the past, while its music, movies, and financial services businesses have generated solid results.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

PlayStation VR 2 will not only be used for games, but will also be a breakthrough mode of entertainment for media such as movies, music, and sports, and will deliver new demand to the PlayStation ecosystem.

Bears

Digital appliance businesses, especially handset businesses, are extremely competitive, and so Sony will be unable to achieve excess returns from them in the long run.
