Heh, I knew that. I'm not sure why I said Vaio instead of Bravia though >_<
You know I'm not entirely sure how seperating their TV line into a different company will make it profitable though.

Well, in my opinion it's more of a sign to investors that the division can easily be sold off, if it continues to post bad results and might make things easier for potential buyers. Additionally it could "motivate" the Bravia management to improve the recovery efforts.
Maybe it enables the cancellation of some old contracts with employees or supplers aswell, but I'm not sure about that one.

Not so much cancellation but....
say Bravia TV company which is owned mostly by Sony goes out of buisness.
Well, they go bankrupt.
Guess who owes all those Bravia factory workers their pensions?
Bravia TV company.
Who owes companies for parts?
Bravia TV company.
Sony is just a stockholder... and probably just one of many.
At least i'm PRETTY sure that's how it works.

I could totally be wrong but doesnt this also aide them in the letting go of so many employees due to the really protective labor laws in Japan.
|
so to sum it up, The tv part still will be in the consolidated reports, but when it goes it has less consequences but the employees are screwed

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
