Sony Group's stock price surged to its highest level since October 2024 today, with an intraday gain of 2.45%.

Sony Group is considering spinning off its semiconductor unit,

Semiconductor Solutions. This potential move is driven by the stagnating growth and reduced profits in the semiconductor sector, which specializes in image sensors. The sector has faced declining operating profit margins due to factors such as slowing global smartphone demand and increased competition from Chinese companies. The spin-off could enable more flexible decision-making and fundraising, ultimately aiming to maximize corporate value by focusing on more profitable segments like gaming and music.
