Sony thinks it might be able to invest its way out of trouble by investing $4 billion from new shares and bonds into image sensors.
The move is seen as Sony attempting to re-invent itself out of the consumer goods market which TVs that dragged it into losses.
It is the first new share issue in 26 years, and will raise $2.62 billion from a public stock offering. It will raise the rest from a bond issue to fund a boost in sensor output capacity at its plants in Japan.
The deal is worth close to a tenth of its current market value, and provides the clearest signal yet that Chief Executive Kazuo Hirai is prioritising the sensor business to anchor Sony’s turnaround.
