Sony is reportedly considering spinning off its semiconductor division as a separate company – allowing the company to more easily implement a strategy of focusing on specific categories such as entertainment and lifestyle.
It is said that the spin-off could happen as early as this year. Sony is expected to retain a minority stake in the new spin-off. Under the semiconductor business, Sony also produces camera sensors for Apple, Xiaomi and a number of other devices.
For your information, Sony has previously looked into this spin-off, but it was unsuccessful. It is also unknown whether this new change will be fully successful or not given the market uncertainty due to tariffs and other factors.
