OSAKA – About one year after launching sweeping management reforms aimed at restoring profitability, major Japanese electronics manufacturer Panasonic Holdings is entering a decisive stage in its turnaround efforts.
Over the past year, Panasonic has worked to revamp its cost structure through measures including large-scale job cuts and the sale of business units. While these steps have helped advance its restructuring, the company now faces a broader challenge: developing new businesses that can serve as stable drivers of earnings.
Fiscal 2026, which began this month, is thus shaping up to be a pivotal year for Panasonic as it seeks to break free from prolonged stagnation and place its recovery on firmer ground.
