Sony Pictures saw a 76% jump in operating profit for the June quarter to $129 million on revenue that grew 4% to $2.3 billion as the studio said more series deliveries in the Television Productions offset a softer theatrical release slate year-on-year for the Japanese giant’s fiscal first quarter.
Television Productions saw revenue rise to $841 million from $607 million the year before when series deliveries were slowed by the impact of Hollywood strikes.
Theatrical revenue fell to $132 million from $322 million as 28 Years Later and Karate Kids: Legends was up against Bad Boys: Ride or Die the year before.
