That’s according to a person familiar with the matter who wasn’t authorized to speak publicly about the matter since the review is not complete.
The review comes as Sony prepares to discuss its entertainment business with investors in a push to become more transparent as a company.
Sony CEO Kazuo Hirai and Sony Entertainment CEO Michael Lynton are to speak to investors at the Sony Pictures lot in Culver City, California, on Thursday.
In the quarter through September, the movie studio lost about $181 million.
