Sony's new plan means fewer TVs and smartphones, more PlayStations

[NewGuy]

By FY 2017 Sony plans to:

- 1.4-1.6 trillion yen in revenue with 5-6% profit margin for Gaming, up from ~1.290 trillion yen with 2.7% profit margin this year
- 600- 700 billion yen in revenue with 7-9% profit margin for Imaging, flat or slightly up from 710 billion yen with 7.3% profit margin this year. However, sales could be up to 1.5 trillion yen with the same profit margin.
- 1-1.1 trillion yen in revenue with 2-4% profit margin for TV/Home Entertainment, down from ~1.2 trillion yen, but much better revenue margin from 0.8% profit margin this year
- 1.3-1.5 trillion yen in revenue with 10-12% profit margin for Devices, up from ~890 billion yen with 7.5% profit margin this year
- $10-11 billion in revenue with 8% profit margin for Movies/TVs, up from $8.1 billion with 6.6% profit margin this year
- Flat or up to 8.3% revenue growth in Music, presumably with the same profit margin, up from $4.8 billion with 9.5% profit margin this year
- Profit in mobile, even if revenue/marketshare diminishes. Up from the massive 204 billion yen write down loss this year

If you think they can pull it off, SNE is looking like a BUY right now....
