Sony Group shares slid as investors weighed a hefty $765 million impairment linked to its Bungie gaming unit against the company’s latest strategic moves. The write‑down raised fresh concerns about profitability in Sony’s gaming division and the long‑term payoff from its major acquisitions.
At the same time, Sony announced a massive ¥500 billion share buyback and cancellation, signaling confidence in its own valuation despite the sell‑off. Bank of America responded by raising its price target while reiterating a Buy rating, citing Sony’s push into next‑generation image sensors with TSMC and expanding IP and content partnerships as key growth drivers.
