The funeral of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was held yesterday (September 19th local time) in the United Kingdom. I'm sure many of you will have followed the coverage in the media.

Sony's presence in the UK stretches back more than 50 years. I would like to express our deepest gratitude for all the support we have received during this period, and offer our sincere condolences to the British Royal Family and the British people.
