Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Sony Group Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as “Sony” or “Sony Group.”

1. Significant accounting policies

(1) Basis of consolidated financial statements

Sony’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) pursuant to Article 120-3, Paragraph 1 of the Regulation on Corporate Accounting. However, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3, certain disclosures required by U.S. GAAP have been omitted.

(2) Valuation standards and methods of inventories

Inventories in the Game & Network Services, Music, Pictures, Electronics Products & Solutions, and Imaging & Sensing Solutions segments are valued at cost, not in excess of the net realizable value – i.e., estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion and disposal, cost being determined on the “average cost” basis.

(3) Valuation standards and methods for securities

(i) Marketable debt and equity securities

Debt securities designated as available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Equity securities that have a readily determinable fair value, and debt securities classified as trading securities, are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included in income. Debt securities that are expected to be held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. The allowance for credit losses is evaluated and recorded for debt securities classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity as necessary. Realized gains and losses are determined on the average cost method and are reflected in income.

Debt securities designated as available-for-sale are regularly reviewed for impairment. For such debt securities which are at an unrealized loss position, Sony determines whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss or other factors by considering not only the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position but also factors such as the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, adverse conditions specifically related to the security, payment structure of the debt security, failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal and any changes to the related ratings, in conjunction with the possibility that Sony sells such security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Sony compares the present value of cash flow expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, an allowance for credit losses is recorded up to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis in the consolidated statements of income. Any impairment that is not accounted for as the allowance for credit losses is recorded through other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes.

The assessment on the risk of credit losses for debt securities designated as held-to-maturity is performed on a regular basis. Sony develops an estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual term by considering available information relevant to assessing the collectability of cash flows including internal information, external information, or a combination of both relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for such credit losses is recorded in income to present the net amount expected to be collected by such debt securities.

(ii) Equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values

Equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. If indicators for impairment are present for equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values, Sony evaluates whether any such equity security is impaired. If any such security is judged to be impaired, Sony recognizes the impairment of the investment and the carrying value is adjusted to its fair value. Determination of impairment is based on the consideration of several factors, including operating results, business plans and estimated future cash flows. Fair value is determined through the use of various methodologies such as discounted cash flows, valuation of recent financings and comparable valuations of similar companies.

7

(4) Depreciation methods for fixed assets

(i) Property, plant and equipment

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Useful lives for depreciation range from two to 50 years for buildings and from two to 10 years for machinery and equipment.

(ii) Goodwill and other intangible assets

Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are tested annually for impairment during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount.

The fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite lived intangible asset is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. This approach uses significant estimates and assumptions, including projected future cash flows, the timing of such cash flows, discount rates reflecting the risk inherent in future cash flows, perpetual growth rates, earnings multiples, the determination of appropriate comparable entities and the determination of whether a premium or discount should be applied to comparables. Intangible assets with finite useful lives mainly consist of patent rights, know-how, license agreements, customer relationships, trademarks, software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, internal-use software, music catalogs, artist contracts, and television carriage contracts (broadcasting agreements). Patent rights, know-how, license agreements, trademarks, software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, and internal-use software are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over three to 10 years. Customer relationships, music catalogs, artist contracts and television carriage contracts (broadcasting agreements) are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 to 44 years.

(5) Method of accounting for reserves

(i) Allowance for credit losses

Sony estimates expected credit losses and recognizes loss allowances for specific financial assets.

The loss allowance for notes and accounts receivable, trade and contract assets is measured at an amount equal to expected credit losses over the contractual term on a collective basis or an individual basis in a way that reflects past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future that are available at the reporting date incorporating factors such as the overdue status from the due date and the attributes of the counterparties.

The loss allowance for securities investments and other is primarily recognized for debt securities classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity and loans including housing loans in the Financial Services segment. The expected credit losses are measured over the contractual term on a collective basis or an individual basis in a way that reflects past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future that are available at the reporting date incorporating factors such as asset type, credit risk ratings, collateral collectability, past-due status and other relevant characteristics of financial assets. The expected credit losses for the financial assets are the product of the probability of default (“PD”), loss given default (“LGD”) and exposure at default (“EAD”), by leveraging the Basel III regulatory framework or based on the external information published by major credit rating agencies. The forward-looking economic information is also included in determining the PD.

Sony also writes off the gross carrying amount of the financial assets when it cannot reasonably expect to recover all or part of the assets.

For the loss allowance for debt securities classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity, also refer to “(3)(i) Marketable debt and equity securities” above.

(ii) Product warranty

Sony provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. The product warranty is calculated based upon product sales, estimated probability of failure and estimated cost per claim. The variables used in the calculation of the provision are reviewed on a periodic basis.

8

(6) Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates include those used in determining the valuation of investment securities, valuation of inventories, fair values of long-lived assets, fair values of goodwill and other intangible assets, fair values of assets and liabilities assumed in business combinations, product warranty liability, pension and severance plans, valuation of deferred tax assets, uncertain tax positions, film costs, and insurance-related liabilities. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates. The timing and extent to which the spread of COVID-19 may negatively impact Sony’s business will depend on future developments, which are uncertain. This uncertainty could result in greater variability in accounting estimates and assumptions.

(7) Other

(i) Measurement of credit losses on financial instruments

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, which amends the accounting guidance for credit losses on financial instruments. The ASU requires the consideration of all available relevant information when estimating expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions and forecasts and their implications for expected credit losses. This ASU was effective for Sony as of April 1, 2020. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on Sony’s results of operations and financial position.

(ii) Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-02, which updates the guidance for the capitalization of film costs associated with episodic television series, requires the use of fair value rather than net realizable value when determining potential impairments of broadcasting rights, and modifies the presentation and disclosure requirements for films and broadcasting rights. In addition, upon capitalization of film costs entities are required to determine qualitatively whether the predominant monetization strategy is on a title-by-title basis or together with other films and/or broadcast rights as part of a film group, such as in the case of a release of a film as part of a library of content on a streaming service. In the case of a film group, impairments are evaluated at the overall film group level rather than the individual title level. This ASU was effective for Sony as of April 1, 2020 and was applied on a prospective basis. Upon adoption, Sony reclassified broadcasting rights in the Pictures segment and animation film production costs in the Music segment included in inventories to film costs.

*Sony has prepared a Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity that shows the movement of capital accounts as part of the consolidated financial statements based on U.S. GAAP and discloses comprehensive income and its breakdown. Comprehensive income is defined as an increase or decrease in equity accounts other than capital transactions and consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes changes in foreign currency translation adjustments.

4. Notes to financial instruments

(1) Matters related to the status of financial instruments

The funds required for Sony’s business excluding the Financial Services segment are raised from the financial and capital markets and financial institutions through corporate bonds and borrowings. Surplus funds are managed with highly secure financial assets. Sony has entered into derivative contracts such as foreign exchange contracts, currency option contracts, and interest rate swap contracts, which are primarily aimed at reducing the risk of foreign exchange fluctuations and cash flow fluctuations, and does not engage in speculative transactions. In the Financial Services segment, Sony invests in securities and loans to secure stable investment returns, with premium income and customer deposits in the banking business as the main sources of funds. Since these financial assets and liabilities are exposed to the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, stock prices, foreign exchange rates, comprehensive management of assets and liabilities is performed to maintain an appropriate balance.
