Sony's move to purchase Columbia Pictures in 1989 sounded like a great idea. The $5 billion acquisition enabled the electronics hardware giant to spread its tentacles into the world of "entertainment software," thus creating lucrative opportunities for product synergy. However, Columbia proceeded to release a string of flops, including the The Last Action Hero, and Sony's dream quickly turned sour. Faced with staggering losses, including $3.2 billion during the second quarter of 1994, Sony officials decided on this day in 1994 to swallow a bitter financial pill and take a $2.7 billion write-off on the studio, since renamed Sony Pictures. While some analysts applauded the write-off as a "daring" attempt to right the company's financial course, others focused blame on Sony brass, arguing that the studio's woes stemmed from poor fiscal mismanagement.
