Sony (SNE) on Thursday reported its results for its third fiscal quarter ended in December, narrowing its loss to $115 million. The company posted a massive $2 billion loss in the same quarter a year earlier. The company’s operating profit came in at $496 million and revenue during the holiday quarter grew 7% year-over-year to $21 billion despite slumping TV sales; Sony’s TV division is now in its ninth consecutive year in the red. Sony maintained that it is on pace to turn a profit of $214 million for the full fiscal year, and it expects annual sales to total $70.6 billion.
