TCL Electronics announced a strategic cooperation intention with Sony in the home entertainment sector, signing a memorandum of understanding. This includes plans to establish a joint venture, with TCL holding a 51% stake and Sony holding 49%, aiming to take over Sony's home entertainment business and operate related activities globally, including televisions and home audio products. The joint venture is expected to leverage TCL's own advanced display technology and global scale advantages, empowered by the SONY and BRAVIA brands, to steadily advance the expansion of its business footprint. According to data from Sigmaintell, global TV shipments reached 220 million units in 2025, a year-on-year decrease of 0.7%. TCL's shipments reached 30.4 million units, a year-on-year increase of 5.4%, capturing a 13.8% market share, up 0.8 percentage points year-on-year, ranking second globally. Sony's shipments reached 4.1 million units (-14.2%), with a 1.9% market share (-0.3 ppts), ranking tenth globally. Haitong International judges that in 2026, boosted by major sporting events like the FIFA World Cup, global TV shipments are expected to remain flat or achieve stable growth. Furthermore, penetration rates for 85+ inch large-size TVs and MiniLED technology are set to continue rising. Driven by industry leaders like TCL, the global market share of Chinese brands is anticipated to expand further. Risks include terminal demand falling short of expectations and geopolitical risks.
