The maker of PlayStation game consoles and Bravia televisions lost a whopping 456.66 billion yen in its previous fiscal year, the fourth in a row, with its massive restructuring including selling off its chemical division while investing 50 billion yen in camera and medical equipment maker Olympus. Last year, the firm said it would cut about 10,000 jobs and spend nearly $1.0 billion on a massive corporate overhaul designed to shake up its product line and cut costs, which new chief Kazuo Hirai described as "urgent". The sale comes as Japanese media reported this month that the embattled firm was also planning to sell one of its main buildings in Tokyo's Osaki district, which accommodates Sony's struggling television division. The company's hard times saw its its stock value tumble below 1,000 yen a share in June, for the first time since the era of the Walkman.
