Don’t you worry about that - based on my calculations, their revenue from PS+ would account for no more than 12.8% of their total revenue. And that’s not counting the actual game publisher’s split. So, a guestimate - around 7.5%.

I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to get an estimate if you have their subscription numbers.
How did you calculate it? Assumed that every subscriber pays $60 for a full year subscription?

Yeps. I estimated the current subscriber numbers based on the growth from FY2015 to FY2016 (divided by half because we’re only half way through the fiscal year) and that resulted in 29.2M subscribers. Multiplied by $60.

I then divided the PS+ revenue for half a year by the gaming division’s revenue for the first half of this FY.

Now we have to keep in mind that there are frequently deals on the PS+ subscription itself. I paid US$54 for 15 months.

That revenue above does not include the games’ publishers’ cuts. We really don’t know how much that is.
