Llegó ese momento cada trimestre donde se puede saber de antemano como está la situación de BlackBerry y al parecer este reporte definitivo es la sorpresa del momento puesto que la empresa no reportó números tan mal tomando en cuenta su situación actual.
Mientras al parecer la empresa BlackBerry todavía continua operando con pérdidas, al parecer las mismas han logrado ser minimizadas con todo y luego que el BlackBerry Z30 ha sido el último equipo para nuestro mercado.
Las ganancias de BlackBerry cayeron a $976 millones un caída fuerte desde el trimestre anterior y esto no es raro comparando que la empresa no ha lanzado nada para en este trimestre.
BlackBerry logró vender 3.4 millones de equipos, totalizando $361 millones de las ganancias, mientras que $546 millones fueron dadas con servicios que la compañía ofrece.
En otro aspecto y aquí es en lo que significaría un positivo para la compañía y es el hecho de que las pérdidas operacionales de la empresa pudieran significar una gran victoria de John Chen como CEO del a empresa, a la vez que se reportaron pérdidas de solo $423 millones que aunque suene mucho dinero, en comparación desde hace algunos años, es una cifra bien mínima.

BlackBerry Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results for Fiscal 2014
BlackBerry Reports Fiscal Fourth Quarter Adjusted Loss Per Share of $0.08 vs. $0.67 in Previous Quarter
WATERLOO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – March 28, 2014) – BlackBerry Limited (NASDAQ: BBRY)(TSX: BB), a global leader in mobile communications, today reported financial results for the three months and fiscal year ended March 1, 2014 (all figures in U.S. dollars and U.S. GAAP, except where otherwise indicated).
Q4 Highlights:
– Cash and investments balance of $2.7B at the end of the fiscal fourth
quarter
– Adjusted Q4 gross margin of 43%, up from 34% in the prior quarter
– Channel inventory down 30% from the prior quarter
– Reduced adjusted operating expenses by approximately 51% from Q1FY14
– Revenue for the fourth quarter of approximately $976 millionQ4 Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 was approximately $976 million, down $217 million or 18% from approximately $1.2 billion in the previous quarter and down 64% from $2.7 billion in the same quarter of fiscal 2013. The revenue breakdown for the quarter was approximately 37% for hardware, 56% for services and 7% for software and other revenue. During the fourth quarter, the Company recognized hardware revenue on approximately 1.3 million BlackBerry smartphones compared to approximately 1.9 million BlackBerry smartphones in the previous quarter. During the fourth quarter, approximately 3.4 million BlackBerry smartphones were sold through to end customers, which included shipments made and recognized prior to the fourth quarter and which reduced the Company’s inventory in channel. Of the BlackBerry smartphones sold through to end customers in the fourth quarter, approximately 2.3 million were BlackBerry 7 devices.GAAP loss from continuing operations for the fourth quarter was $423 million, or $0.80 per share diluted. The loss includes a non-cash charge associated with the change in the fair value of the Debentures of approximately $382 million (the “Q4 Fiscal 2014 Debentures Fair Value Adjustment”), a pre-tax recovery of previously recorded inventory charges of approximately $149 million (the “Q4 Fiscal 2014 Inventory Recovery”) and pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $148 million related to the Cost Optimization and Resource Efficiency (“CORE”) program. This compares with a GAAP loss from continuing operations of $4.4 billion, or $8.37 per share diluted in the prior quarter, and GAAP income from continuing operations of $94 million, or $0.18 per share diluted, in the same quarter last year.
Adjusted loss from continuing operations for the fourth quarter was $42 million, or $0.08 per share diluted. Adjusted loss from continuing operations and adjusted diluted loss per share exclude the impact of the non-cash Q4 Fiscal 2014 Debentures Fair Value Adjustment of approximately $382 million ($382 million after tax), the Q4 Fiscal 2014 Inventory Recovery of approximately $149 million ($106 million after tax), and pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $148 million ($105 million after tax) related to the CORE program incurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. These impacts on GAAP loss from continuing operations and diluted loss per share from continuing operations are summarized in the table below.
The total of cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments was approximately $2.7 billion as of March 1, 2014, compared to $3.2 billion at the end of the previous quarter. Cash flow used in operations in the fourth quarter was approximately $553 million. Cash flows provided by financing activities in the fourth quarter were approximately $251 million, which includes the additional issuance of $250 million of convertible debentures. Cash flows used in investing activities included intangible asset additions of approximately $243 million. Purchase obligations and other commitments amounted to approximately $1.9 billion as at March 1, 2014, with purchase orders with contract manufacturers representing approximately $586 million of the total.
“I am very pleased with our progress and execution in fiscal Q4 against the strategy we laid out three months ago. We have significantly streamlined operations, allowing us to reach our expense reduction target one quarter ahead of schedule,” said John Chen, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BlackBerry. “BlackBerry is on sounder financial footing today with a path to returning to growth and profitability.”
Outlook
The Company anticipates maintaining its strong cash position and continuing to look for opportunities to streamline operations. The Company is targeting break even cash flow results by the end of fiscal 2015.

(1) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company reported GAAP
gross margin of $553 million or 57% of revenue. Excluding the impact

43%.

and increase efficiency, the Company commenced the CORE program in

cost of sales, charges of approximately $21 million were included in
research and development and charges of approximately $110 million
were included in selling, marketing, and administration expenses.
(3) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recorded a non-
cash charge associated with the change in the fair value of the

presented on a separate line in the Statements of Operations.
(4) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recorded a
recovery of previous charges against inventory and supply commitments
of approximately $149 million, or $106 million after tax, to reflect
increased sell through rates, relative to the estimates and
assumptions previously considered, resulting from discounted pricing
and revised orders on hand for devices and components of BlackBerry 10
products.Fiscal 2014 Results
