This is gonna be a tough one to call...
On one hand, they've had Skyfall which is one of the highest grossing films of all time, they sold a record 10m smartphones in the quarter and there is a favourable exchange rate. On the other hand, however, the gaming division and TV division will be down YOY and sales of their Vaio laptops will also be down. Hmm... |
how do you now they sold 10million smartphones?
