Sony Group Corporation Adr (SONY)

Sony Group Corporation Stock (SONY) dropped by 6.64% from $87.54 to $81.73 in the trading on Thursday November 9, 2023. The reason why SONY stock down today is due to week earnings results. Sony reported a 29% drop in operating profit in the fiscal second quarter as the Japanese electronics giant suffered from weakness in its imaging sensor business. The prolonged strike by actors and screenwriters took a toll on Sony’s movie business. A deal was reached late Wednesday, ending the longest strike ever for film and television actors.

• Revenue: 2.8 trillion yen ($18.5 billion) versus 2.87 trillion yen expected. That represents an 8% increase year-over-year.
• Operating profit: 263 billion Japanese yen versus 304.4 billion yen expected. That marks a 29% drop year-over-year.

Shares of Sony dropped 6.65% from $89.82 to $83.85 as the company logged a hefty drop in first-quarter profit, hurt in part by a weaker performance from its movie division.
