Sony sees 25-fold profit jump by 2018; could exit TVs, phones

Hirai speaks during its corporate strategy meeting at the company's headquarters in Tokyo By Ritsuko Ando TOKYO (Reuters) - Sony Corp aims to boost operating profit 25-fold within three years by growing its camera sensors and PlayStation units, its chief executive said, outlining a strategy that could see the company exit the cut-throat TV and smartphone sectors. CEO Kazuo Hirai said on Wednesday the Japanese consumer electronics firm would no longer pursue sales growth in areas such as smartphones where its has suffered competition from cheaper Asian rivals as well as industry leaders like Apple Inc and Samsung Electronics . Sony would instead focus its spending on more profitable businesses such as camera sensors, videogames and entertainment as it seeks to return to growth after forecasting for this financial year its sixth net loss in seven years. The comments, made just as the Tokyo market was closing, helped Sony's shares rise 1.4 percent in New York.
