Sony Corp. reported a fourth-quarter loss after booking a charge against its chip business and delayed giving a full-year forecast to assess damage from an earthquake that shut its main plant for camera sensors.
The net loss was ¥88.3 billion in the quarter ended March, the Tokyo-based company said Thursday. Sony, which also recorded its first full-year profit in three years, will probably see annual net income in the current fiscal period climb to ¥212.2 billion, according to the average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
