Report Summary:

BlackBerry continued to absorb body-blows in calendar Q4 2013, even as it took concrete steps to put the company back on a path towards recovery. From a huge loss for the handset business due to continued poor sales of its BlackBerry 10 smartphones to an inability to find a buyer who would take the company private, and finally, the replacement of senior executives including its CEO, the fourth quarter of the year capped what has by any measure been an awful year for the Canadian smartphone company. Despite the grim drumbeat of bad news, strategic changes announced by new CEO John Chen, including a partnership with contract manufacturer Foxconn, indicate that the company is making the kinds of difficult decisions that can stem the bleeding and lead the company to a second act as a maker of devices and services tailored to its core base of consumer and enterprise customers.
