      <title>Sony shares tumble on weaker-than-expected annual outlook</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30319713/sony-shares-tumble-on-weaker-than-expected-annual-outlook</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TOKYO:  Sony Group Corp’s (6758.T) shares fell as much as 4.8% on Monday after the Japanese electronics and entertainment conglomerate’s annual profit outlook fell short of market expectations.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company on Friday posted a record operating profit for the year ended March 2023, driven by a robust performance at its music and microchip units.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the current business year, however, it projected a 3.2% profit decline to 1.17 trillion yen ($8.55 billion), missing an analysts average estimate of a 1.275 trillion yen profit, as it expects slow recovery in profitability in the videogame unit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jefferies analyst Atul Goyal said in a note to clients Sony’s outlook “is overly conservative,” and that its PlayStation 5 (PS5) game consoles and game software are likely to benefit from pent-up demand.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sony had struggled to make enough PS5 to meet demand during the COVID-19 pandemic because of supply chain snarls, but President Hiroki Totoki said on Friday the company was now ready to deliver the consoles without keeping customers waiting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The conglomerate aims to sell a record 25 million units of the PS5 in the year to next March.&lt;/p&gt;
