Sony has shifted its financial outlook further into the red due to extraneous costs in its mobile phone department. Originally only looking at $50 billion lose at the end of the fiscal year (March 31st, 2015), the company is now looking at a lose closer to $230 billion.
The major increase in debt comes from a one time "impairment charge" of $180 billion incurred by the mobile division. Due to such a high loss, Sony is now shifting its strategy in the mobile market, focusing on premium hardware and less in the middle price range.
