Sony: Game operating income is expected to be lower at end of fiscal year

Sony Corp. has revised its consolidated forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31 by announcing that the operating income of its "Game segment" is to be lowered by ¥30 billion (approx €259m).

"In the Game segment, operating income (loss) is expected to be lower by approximately ¥30 billion," said Sony. "Of this, approximately ¥15 billion is due to the impact of the appreciation of the yen and approximately ¥15 billion is due to lower-than-expected sales."
