On the heels of Sony CEO Kaz Hirai stepping down, industry experts estimate the company’s film and television assets could be headed for sale. Hirai stepped down earlier this week to make way for Chief Financial Officer Kenichiro Yoshida to take over.
The CFO, who will now succeed Hirai, is reportedly “not too keen” on the entertainment business, fueling fire to speculations about Sony being ready for a sale. According to a report on Deadline, Sony’s stock surged 6 percent at $51.99 amid speculations about a potential sale of its entertainment assets which include profiting assets SpiderMan and Ghostbusters.
