- Really? O man, I can't see that happening, but then again, I have no clue what I'm talking about. But if it does hit $60, I'll **** my pants.06-16-13 05:55 AMLike 4

- I think a spike to the low to mid $30s is possible. I just don't see a case for $60. However it would be nice.matthewriedle and lcjr like this.06-16-13 10:30 AMLike 2

BBRY has had revenues in a quarter of over $5 billion in the past. But on a yearly average basis, it peaked at just under that.
I care about FCF. Last quarter it was negative to the tune of about $100 million. If revenues shoot up like this, along with the cost cutting initiatives, I can see FCF at $300+ million on a conservative basis.06-16-13 10:37 AMLike 5 - My expectations (and hopes) are based on the assumption that collusion fuels the squeeze. I think that a naturally born squeeze should easily see a spike into the $30s.06-16-13 10:38 AMLike 4
- also the dude on the video continues to confirm my view that the bear case is extremely weak, I have yet to see an interview where the bear wasn't misinformed at best about anything BBRY. If anyone knows of a video in which a bear makes an intelligent comprehensive case, please let me know.
So when i hear that bear case it just reinforces my conviction.lcjr and Shanerredflag like this.06-16-13 10:40 AMLike 2 - As much as I'd like a spike up that high due to a squeeze, and I suppose it is perfectly plausible, I expect to reach a new 52 week high, and maybe tap $20. This, in my opinion, is still fairly high and also allows me to be extremely excited if it goes higher, but perfectly happy if it doesn't.lcjr and Shanerredflag like this.06-16-13 10:45 AMLike 2
- I'm positive there will be a price adjustments following the ER, but I don't want to get disappointed again by building it up. I have to keep telling myself I'm in it until October - December anyway so there's plenty of time for this to elevate to where we feel it should be. Hey, if it's over $30 come September, I'll stick around for more with you guys. Haha.cjcampbell and Shanerredflag like this.06-16-13 10:54 AMLike 2
- They are saying revenues of $3.7 billion? The past 4 quarters have had revenues at about $2.8 billion a quarter. If they just to $3.7 billion that will be incredible.

Would you say Total Revenue = (# BB10 devices x $520) + (# BB7 devices x $220) + $250M from services?
In that case I just don't see how revenue could be $3.7M for the quarter. Most of the revenue would come from BB10 devices and even C. Umiastowski indicated that 5M devices is too optimistic?
Don't get me wrong.. I hope revenue will skyrocket but I just can't see it for this quarter. I am however expecting EPS to come in at .56 :-) What do you think?

No offence to Chris U, but he is in the same boat as the rest of us and all the other analysts out there. Taking the numbers that we know and making a guess based upon them. I'm not saying we will be higher than 5 million sold but just because he said so, doesn't make it any more real.
Your EPS seems to be more in line but even then, it's all a guess for the time being.Shanerredflag likes this.06-16-13 11:31 AMLike 1 - I'm hoping and expecting a profitable quarter. But I'm not expecting a huge stock price even after BBRY beats Wall Street estimates. That is because as soon as they announce 4 million BB10 phone sales and the very nice margins that comes with selling a smartphone for $600, folks are just going to start saying that this is only pent up demand and that it can't be kept up. So we are going to start looking at next quarter. I think BBRY needs four quarters in a row to put the squeeze on the shorts. Some of those shorts probably are still deep in the money since they shorted the stock at $50 or so. Others are just sure that bankruptcy is around the corner because they are sure the entire world will soon be Android. Nice sales during the last quarter won't convince them that they are wrong.
Me, my view is the BBRY 10 is a good OS and that there is a market for qwerty phones. That phone just also needs to have a modern and effective OS. Now only BBRY can do a great qwerty phone and combine it was a great OS. Apple has abandoned this space and Android hasn't been able to fill it. BBRY will continue to dominate the Qwerty market and that market will come back. To the extent that it ever really went away (I see keyboard Blackberrys all the time all over the place).06-16-13 11:35 AMLike 10 -
- You're numbers are off as they are in the millions instead of billions. For example, take your service revenue number.... if we went down to 70 million subs on the legacy OS, and there was an average of $3/mth paid (low estimate), then there would be $630 million generated for the Q. If they sold 4 million BB10 devices with an ASP of $400, then we're at $1.6 billion. Without the legacy devices, or any other metric not included, we're already at $2.23 billion based on low estimates.

How do you get to the $630M generated for the Q?
Let's say we took a very bullish standpoint and calculate an estimated total revenue number. I think we'd be disappointed with the result.
However, next quarter will be totally different. My opinion of course.

You're right, I meant $3.7B instead of $3.7M.

- I am hoping for EPS of $1.
Let's say they sell 4M BlackBerry 10 phones at profit of $200 each. That is, $200 profit after cost of producing, distributing bb10 devices. That's $800M profit.
Bb7 profits (if any), service fee ($600M or so) go towards paying for marketing and other expense and do not contribute to overall profit.
So, $800 M profit is a little more than $1 EPS.
