Sony released their Q3 FY2024 financial results - here is the recap from SonyAddict:

Entertainment, Technology & Service Segment:

• Next is the ET&S segment.
• Sales for the quarter decreased 4% year-on-year to 704.5 billion yen, primarily due to a decrease in unit sales of televisions, while operating income remained essentially flat at 77.1 billion yen.
• The full-year forecast is unchanged from the previous forecast.

Imaging & Sensing Solutions Segment:

• Next is the I&SS segment.
• Sales for the quarter were essentially flat year-on-year at 500.9 billion yen, primarily due to a decrease in sales of mobile image sensors offsetting the impact of foreign exchange rates.
• Despite the positive impact of foreign exchange rates, operating income decreased 2% year-on-year to 97.5 billion yen primarily due to increased manufacturing costs and the impact of the decreased sales.
• We have slightly increased the full-year sales forecast from the previous forecast to 1 trillion 790 billion yen, while the forecast for operating income is unchanged.

We will continue to expand the world of the instax instant photo system that allows people to enjoy on-the-spot photo printing.

In the professional imaging business, brisk sales of digital cameras continued to drive revenue growth. In November 2024, we launched the FUJIFILM X-M5 mirrorless digital camera, the lightest in the X series. We also announced the development of our first-ever filmmaking camera, the FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA. We will continue to feature outstanding image quality with the large format sensor in the GFX series and the best balance of image quality and size in the X series, providing attractive products for digital camera users and the film industry."
