TOKYO – Sony executives apologized Tuesday for inconvenience caused by a massive global recall in laptop batteries, but said the problems were now fixed and that none of the company’s top leaders would resign over the incident.
The embarrassing spate of battery recalls that is threatening to tarnish the once impeccable Sony brand power is coming at a time when Sony has been struggling to turn around its core electronics business.
It could hurt the Japanese electronics and entertainment company’s sales during the critical year-end shopping season. For some, Sony’s woes have shaken this nation’s confidence in its long prized manufacturing prowess.
Sony slashed its profit forecasts last week, citing the battery like Acer TravelMate 8005 Battery , Acer TravelMate 800LC Battery , Acer TravelMate 800XC Battery , Acer TravelMate 8100A Battery , Acer TravelMate 8101 Battery , Acer TravelMate 8102 Battery , Acer TravelMate 8106 Battery , Acer TravelMate C102T Battery , Acer TravelMate C112T Battery , Acer TravelMate C112TC Battery , Acer TravelMate C200 Battery , Acer TravelMate C210 Battery as well as price cuts in Japan for the next-generation PlayStation 3 video game console. Sony expects an 80 billion yen ($673 million) profit for the fiscal year through March 2007, down 38 percent from its projection in July.
John Yang, equity analyst with Standard & Poor’s in Tokyo, said the recall problem is unlikely to devastate Sony’s battery operations because only a handful of major companies compete in that business.
