Sony puts price on battery problems - up to $258 million
Sony Corp. has provided for the first time an estimate of what the recalls of its battery packs by PC makers could end up costing the Japanese company.
Sony expects the Apple and Dell recalls to cost between ¥20 billion and ¥30 billion (US$172 million to $258 million). It said the figure represents the cost of replacement battery packs and any other related costs. That could put a dent in Sony's full-year financial results. The company currently forecasts both its operating profit and its net profit to be ¥130 billion for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007. Sony said it anticipates "no further recalls of battery packs using these particular battery cells."
