Units
shipped in the quarter were 14.1 million, an increase of 2% quarter-on-quarter
and a decrease of 45% year-on-year. Sales for the quarter were Euro 1,619
million, a sequential decrease of 4% and a year-on-year decrease of 42%. The
sequential decline in ASP (Average Selling Price) was due to product mix and
continued challenging market conditions.
Gross margin improved sequentially but dropped year-on-year due to lower sales and foreign exchange fluctuations. The sequential improvement was seen in both percentage rate and volume, driven by cost savings actions and successful sales of the W995 Walkman® phone.
Income
before taxes for the quarter, excluding restructuring charges, was a loss of
Euro 198 million compared to a loss of Euro 283 million from the previous
quarter. The reduced loss was due to better gross margin, as well as reduced
operating expenses.
“Our
business in the third quarter started to show the effects of our ongoing
transformation programme. Having refreshed our brand, we are now
better positioned to support the launch of new products such as Aino™
and Satio™
in Q4 2009. We have cleared channel inventories, and have continued
to realign internal resources and improve efficiency. We have also arranged
external financing to strengthen the company's financial position,” said Dick
Komiyama, outgoing President, Sony Ericsson. “Transforming the business for
future growth and returning Sony Ericsson to profitability is the focus of the
senior management team and will continue under the new leadership.”
As of
September 30, 2009, Sony Ericsson had a net cash position of Euro 841
million.
Since the
beginning of the quarter, facilities of Euro 455 million were signed to
strengthen the balance sheet and improve liquidity. Euro 155 million were drawn
by the end of September and Euro 100 million were drawn in the beginning of
October. In addition, a two-year committed back-up facility of Euro 200 million
is available but has not been utilized. The parent companies have guaranteed
Euro 350 million of these facilities on a 50/50 basis.
Programmes
started since mid 2008 to reduce annual operating expenses by Euro 880 million
are continuing, with the full benefit expected during the second half of 2010.
The total restructuring charges for these programmes are estimated to be well
within the previously announced Euro 500 million.
As of
October 15, 2009; Sir Howard Stringer, Chairman, CEO and President
of Sony Corporation and a member of the Sony Ericsson board, became Chairman of
the Sony Ericsson board succeeding Carl-Henric Svanberg. At the same
time, Bert Nordberg became President of Sony Ericsson succeeding Dick Komiyama,
who remains as Executive Advisor until the end of 2009.
Sony
Ericsson forecasts that the global handset market for 2009 will contract by
approximately 10% from around 1,190 million units in 2008. Sony Ericsson
estimates that its market share in units was about 5% in the third
quarter.
