Panasonic said it lost about $US6.77 billion ($A6.52 billion) in the nine months to December and was on track to lose a whopping $A8 billion.
The struggling electronics giant's nine-month net loss, revealed on Friday, nearly doubled its year earlier shortfall, while sales slipped 8.8 per cent to 5.44 trillion yen.
