Sony Predicts PS4 Shipments to Reach 60 Million By April 2017; Expects Better Results than in FY2015

Operating income is expected to significantly increase year-on-year due to the impact of the increase in PS4 software and hardware sales, partially offset by the impact of a decrease in PlayStation 3 software sales.

“Sales are expected to increase year-on-year due to an increase in PlayStation 4 (“PS4”) software sales, including sales through the network, and an increase in PS4 hardware unit sales.
