BlackBerry Nets Small Profit But Revenue Drops

BlackBerry put out their Q4 2015 numbers [Warning: PDF] just a little while ago. Here’s the key points:

  •  The company reported a net profit of $28 million, or 5 cents a share, in the quarter ended Feb. 28. That compared with a year-earlier loss of $148 million, or 28 cents a share.

  • Excluding one-time items, the company quarterly profit was $20 million, or 4 cents a share.

  • Quarterly revenue, however, slid to $660 million from $793 million.

So, BlackBerry made money. At least John Chen was right on that front. The question is, can they keep moving forward to build on this positive news? Though I will admit that investors don’t see it as all that positive as the stock is only up slightly in pre-market trading.
