Company profile • Index constituent

Sony Group

Sony connects games, recorded music, music publishing and screen entertainment with consumer technology and image sensors.

What does Sony Group do?

Sony's businesses span Game & Network Services, Music, Pictures, Entertainment, Technology & Services, and Imaging & Sensing Solutions. That breadth makes it a useful case for understanding how entertainment intellectual property sits alongside platforms, devices and components in one group. [1]

Sony's share-price return reflects a broad corporate portfolio; it is not a standalone measure of the film studio, record label or PlayStation business. This distinction matters when comparing a diversified group with a company focused on a single entertainment activity.

How does Bad Wolf connect to Sony?

Sony Pictures Television announced its acquisition of a majority stake in Bad Wolf in December 2021. Sony's international production portfolio continues to include the Welsh producer. The relationship offers a route from a listed group to an operating company whose own shares are not represented by a separate Index line. [2] [3]

This profile follows the SONY ADR line. Sony's Japanese ordinary shares and its US depositary receipts are different instruments; any Index performance displayed below refers to the selected security, not to every listing of the company.
