Description: SONY Sony September 24, 2025

Sony Group Corporation (NYSE: SONY) is a diversified technology and entertainment conglomerate that designs, manufactures, and sells electronic equipment across consumer, professional, and industrial markets worldwide. Its portfolio spans gaming hardware and software (PlayStation consoles, network services, and peripherals), recorded music and publishing, motion-picture production and streaming, as well as visual-effects, animation, and television-network operations.

The company also leads in imaging technology, producing televisions, audio-visual products, interchangeable-lens cameras, projectors, medical imaging devices, mobile phones and accessories, and world-leading metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) image sensors that power most smartphones. Beyond hardware, Sony offers broadband services, storage media, and a suite of financial services including insurance and banking.

In fiscal 2023 Sony generated ¥10.9 trillion in revenue, with the Gaming & Network Services segment delivering a 16% YoY increase in operating profit, driven by strong PlayStation 5 sales and growth in subscription services. Its Imaging Sensors division retains roughly 45% share of the global smartphone sensor market, benefitting from rising demand for AI-enabled cameras. The Entertainment segment saw a 9% rise in content revenues as streaming and theatrical releases rebounded post-pandemic.

Key macro drivers include continued consumer spending on premium electronics, accelerating adoption of AI-powered imaging sensors, and the expansion of subscription-based gaming and streaming services, while currency fluctuations (a weaker yen) and semiconductor supply constraints remain material risks.
