Description: SONY Sony January 26, 2026
Sony Group Corp (NYSE:SONY) is a diversified technology and entertainment conglomerate that designs, manufactures, and sells consumer, professional, and industrial electronics worldwide, while also operating major content businesses in gaming, music, film, and television, and providing financial and broadband services.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 consolidated revenue reached ¥29.1 trillion, with operating profit of ¥2.5 trillion; the Game & Network Services segment posted a 12% YoY revenue increase to ¥2.5 trillion, driven by strong PlayStation 5 sales and subscription growth. Sony’s image-sensor division held roughly 20% of the global market, benefitting from rising demand for high-resolution smartphone cameras and automotive ADAS applications. Macro-level drivers include a gradual easing of the semiconductor supply crunch, a projected 9% annual expansion in the global gaming market, and continued pressure on consumer electronics margins from inflationary input costs.
