亏4.5亿，微软将关闭所有实体店

Microsoft said Friday it is permanently closing nearly all of its physical stores around the world.

微软周五表示，将永久关闭其在世界各地的几乎所有实体店。

Like other retailers, the software and computing giant had to temporarily close all of its stores in late March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to its website, Microsoft has 83 stores worldwide, including 72 stores in the U.S., and several others abroad where it showcases and sells laptops and other hardware.

根据其网站，微软在全球有83家门店，其中72家在美国该公司还在海外其他几个地方展示和销售笔记本电脑和其他硬件。

Friday’s announcement reflects what the company calls a “strategic change” for its retail business as sales increasingly shift online.

周五的声明反映了随着销售日益转向网上，该公司在进行所谓的零售业务的“战略转变”。

Microsoft said it would “reimagine” the physical spaces at its four high-profile Microsoft Experience Centers in New York, London, Sydney, Australia and at the company's headquarters in Redmond, Washington.

微软表示，它将“重新设想”四个备受瞩目的微软体验中心的物理空间，这些体验中心分别位于纽约、伦敦、悉尼和澳大利亚，以及位于华盛顿雷德蒙德的微软总部。

All employees will have the opportunity to remain with the company, Microsoft said.

微软表示，所有员工都有机会留在公司。

Microsoft Corp. said the closures would result in a pretax charge of about $450 million, or 5 cents per share, taken in the current quarter ending June 30.

微软公司表示，关闭这些工厂将导致在6月30日之前，给本季度带来税前支出约4.5亿美元，合每股5美分。
