Japanese display maker Sharp Corp , a supplier to Apple Inc, will aim to boost sales to the iPhone maker's rival Samsung Electronics Co under a three-year rehabilitation roadmap after posting a worse-than-expected $5.4 billion net loss in its latest financial year.The business plan, due for release on Tuesday, will lean further on banks that last year saved it from failure, as a 200 billion yen ($2 billion) convertible bond will fall due in September.Sharp forecast an 80 billion yen operating profit for the year to next March 31, exceeding the 52.9 billion yen average estimate of 13 analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.That follows a 146.27 billion yen operating loss in the business year just ended and a 545.35 billion yen net loss, which was inflated by write-offs of display-making facilities and other assets as it struggles with excess capacity.
