tagged. This is why you can't leave, we need financials and data straight from the kow

Ooo0ooohh..exciting! I didnt know about this.

I expect dismal results.

Tagging. Hoping for a good PS3 sales shipment > 2.0 but don't really think it's gonna happen.

Just 2m will mean only 500k PS3 on shelves. So must likely it should be closer to 3m.

I believe the word your looking for is: "fail".

Apperantly they have been extremely uncapable in predicting their own revenue/profit/loss stream.

They are doing terrible, but they are not beyond repair. The SONY brand name is still hugely powerful. The next few years will be vital...

Sony has been a year away from being profitable for the past 7 years... they're due.

it's not weird at all, they didn't expect the yen/euro situation which effected almost all companies in Japan and no one could foresee the tsunami, and the last revision was writing off the tax credit that they lost

Exactly, they just had to write a 4 billion tax credit off as a loss, the exchange rate improving is whats going to help them later, after the restructing is done, but they still have to post these losses

this isn't that hard for you kowen, c'mon man

Dont forget the massive flooding in Thailand where Sony, and lot of Japanese offshore manufacturing is located...which S&P noted when they downgraded....Not trying to make excuses for the bad numbers but you have some extreme one off events that happened in the last year for many Japanese companies which are not going to repeat themselves.
