Wow ... that was an insight ...

Why do you think they havent exited TV yet.  They face enormous costs to exit (including a huge chunk of redundancy pay) and are delaying it for as long as possible.

If they decide to exit TV in say 12 to 18 months then not only is the loss in FY 2014 certain (to march '15), they will also see losses for FY 2015 and FY 2016 too.  It is a mess that they could and should have dealt with years ago.

Approx $8bn in losses due to TV alone so far.  $8bn !

Isn't what they're doing worse? Delaying closing down the T.V. division only means more losses.

Exactly.  Dammed if they do and dammed if they dont.  Neither is attractive.

I doubt they will close TV section.

They own patents and manufacture LCD screens for other companies.
